s390: remove unneeded variables

2015-08-07T07:57:01Z

This patch remove unneeded variables used to store return values. These issues were detected with the Coccinelle script: scripts/coccinelle/misc/returnvar.cocci [heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com]: make qeth_l[2/3]_stop() return void Signed-off-by: Peter Senna Tschudin Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390/cio: Implement proper Link Incident Record handling

2015-07-22T07:58:06Z

A hardware problem on a FICON link is reported by the Channel Subsystem to the operating system via a Link Incident Record (LIR). In response, the operating system should issue a message that enables hardware service personnel to identify and repair the failing component. Current Linux LIR handling is broken because LIR data is incorrectly interpreted and no log message is generated. This patch fixes Linux LIR handling by implementing a new log message for LIRs indicating a degraded or non-operational link. Also LIRs are no longer used to deactivate channel paths because the available data does not reliably allow to determine the affected channel path.

s390/cio: Fix comma

2015-07-22T07:58:06Z

After dutifully acting as statement separator for 6 long years, this comma has finally grown into a full semicolon. Signed-off-by: Peter Oberparleiter Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390: remove use of seq_printf return value

2015-04-15T23:35:25Z

The seq_printf return value, because it's frequently misused, will eventually be converted to void.

s390: remove 31 bit support

2015-03-25T10:49:33Z

Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel. The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e5826 ("s390: add 31 bit warning message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit code. We didn't get any response. Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's remove the code. Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

s390: add SMT support

2015-01-22T11:16:01Z

The multi-threading facility is introduced with the z13 processor family. This patch adds code to detect the multi-threading facility. With the facility enabled each core will surface multiple hardware threads to the system. Each hardware threads looks like a normal CPU to the operating system with all its registers and properties. The SCLP interface reports the SMT topology indirectly via the maximum thread id. Each reported CPU in the result of a read-scp-information is a core representing a number of hardware threads. To reflect the reduced CPU capacity if two hardware threads run on a single core the MT utilization counter set is used to normalize the raw cputime obtained by the CPU timer deltas. This scaled cputime is reported via the taskstats interface. The normal /proc/stat numbers are based on the raw cputime and are not affected by the normalization. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390/cio: idset.c: remove some unused functions

2015-01-08T09:02:50Z

Removes some functions that are not used anywhere: idset_clear() idset_sch_get_first() This was partially found by using a static code analysis program called cppcheck. Signed-off-by: Rickard Strandqvist Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390/eadm: change timeout value

2014-12-08T08:42:42Z

Tests have shown that 5 seconds is sometimes not enough for an IRQ to arrive (especially when the device is doing garbage collection). Let's wait a little longer. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Ott Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

Merge branch 'for-3.18-consistent-ops' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu

2014-10-15T05:48:18Z

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo: "Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other inconsistent operations. This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr(). Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr(). This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully remove the obsolete accessors" * 'for-3.18-consistent-ops' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu: (38 commits) irqchip: Properly fetch the per cpu offset percpu: Resolve ambiguities in __get_cpu_var/cpumask_var_t -fix ia64: sn_nodepda cannot be assigned to after this_cpu conversion.
