Christian Borntraeger 1b6a19b34d kvm/s390: also set guest pages back to stable on kexec/kdump
We need to reset the usage state of the pages on kexec/kdump,
which use subcode 0 and 1. We will only do the cmma reset in
the kernel, everything else is done in userspace as before.

Heiko Carstens 0ccc8b7ac8 s390/bitops,atomic: add missing memory barriers
When reworking the bitops and atomic ops I missed that those instructions
that got atomic behaviour only perform a "specific-operand-serialization"
instead of a full "serialization".
The compare-and-swap instruction used before performs a full serialization
before and after the instruction is executed, which means it has full
memory barrier semantics.
In order to give the new bitops and atomic ops functions also full memory
barrier semantics add a "bcr 14,0" before and after each of those new
instructions which performs full serialization as well.

This restores memory barrier semantics for bitops and atomic ops functions
which return values, like e.g. atomic_add_return(), but not for functions
which do not return a value, like e.g. atomic_add().
This is consistent to other architectures and what common code requires.

Linus Torvalds 190f918660 Merge branch 'compat' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux
Pull s390 compat wrapper rework from Heiko Carstens:
 "S390 compat system call wrapper simplification work.

  The intention of this work is to get rid of all hand written assembly
  compat system call wrappers on s390, which perform proper sign or zero
  extension, or pointer conversion of compat system call parameters.
  Instead all of this should be done with C code eg by using Al's
  COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro.

  Therefore all common code and s390 specific compat system calls have
  been converted to the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro.

  In order to generate correct code all compat system calls may only
  have eg compat_ulong_t parameters, but no unsigned long parameters.
  Those patches which change parameter types from unsigned long to
  compat_ulong_t parameters are separate in this series, but shouldn't
  cause any harm.

  The only compat system calls which intentionally have 64 bit
  parameters (preadv64 and pwritev64) in support of the x86/32 ABI
  haven't been changed, but are now only available if an architecture
  defines __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_PREADV64/PWRITEV64.

  System calls which do not have a compat variant but still need proper
  zero extension on s390, like eg "long sys_brk(unsigned long brk)" will
  get a proper wrapper function with the new s390 specific
  COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAPx() macro:

     COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP1(brk, unsigned long, brk);

  which generates the following code (simplified):

     asmlinkage long sys_brk(unsigned long brk);
     asmlinkage long compat_sys_brk(long brk)
     {
         return sys_brk((u32)brk);
     }

  Given that the C file which contains all the COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP lines
  includes both linux/syscall.h and linux/compat.h, it will generate
  build errors, if the declaration of sys_brk() doesn't match, or if
  there exists a non-matching compat_sys_brk() declaration.

  In addition this will intentionally result in a link error if
  somewhere else a compat_sys_brk() function exists, which probably
  should have been used instead.  Two more BUILD_BUG_ONs make sure the
  size and type of each compat syscall parameter can be handled
  correctly with the s390 specific macros.

  I converted the compat system calls step by step to verify the
  generated code is correct and matches the previous code.  In fact it
  did not always match, however that was always a bug in the hand
  written asm code.

  In result we get less code, less bugs, and much more sanity checking"

Heiko Carstens 9a205286bc s390/compat: build error for large compat syscall args
Enforce 32 bit types for all compat syscall argument types.

This way we can make sure that all arguments get correct sign
or zero extension. Otherwise incorrect code would be generated.

E.g. for a 'long' type the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE macro wouldn't
generate code that would cause sign extension of the passed in 32
bit user space parameter.
This can cause quite subtle bugs like e.g. the one that was fixed
with dfd948e32a "fs/compat: fix parameter handling for compat
readv/writev syscalls".

Heiko Carstens 932602e238 fs/compat: convert to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE with changing parameter types
Some fs compat system calls have unsigned long parameters instead of
compat_ulong_t.
In order to allow the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE macro generate code that
performs proper zero and sign extension convert all 64 bit parameters
their corresponding 32 bit counterparts.

compat_sys_io_getevents() is a bit different: the non-compat version
has signed parameters for the "min_nr" and "nr" parameters while the
compat version has unsigned parameters.
So change this as well. For all practical purposes this shouldn't make
any difference (doesn't fix a real bug).
Also introduce a generic compat_aio_context_t type which can be used
everywhere.
The access_ok() check within compat_sys_io_getevents() got also removed
since the non-compat sys_io_getevents() should be able to handle
everything anyway.

Heiko Carstens c2e7c3d0ef s390/compat: partial parameter conversion within syscall wrappers
Parameter conversion within the system call wrappers is only needed
for parameters which differ in size and have a size of eight bytes on
64 bit.
For system call parameters with a size of less than eight byte the
called system call itself will perform parameter conversion anyway.
So we can save the double conversion of e.g. int parameters.

The only types which need to be converted are therefore pointer and
(unsigned) long parameters.

Heiko Carstens ab4f8bba19 s390/compat: automatic zero, sign and pointer conversion of syscalls
Instead of explicitly changing compat system call parameters from e.g.
unsigned long to compat_ulong_t let the COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP macros
automatically detect (unsigned) long parameters and zero and sign
extend them automatically.
The resulting binary is completely identical.

In addition add a sys_[system call name] prototype for each system call
wrapper. This will cause compile errors if the prototype does not match
the prototype in include/linux/syscall.h.
Therefore we should now always get the correct zero and sign extension
of system call parameters. Pointers are handled like before.

Introduce a new compat_wrap.c file which contains the s390 specific compat
system call wrappers.
The s390 specific system call wrappers only perform sign, zero and pointer
conversion of system call arguments before actually calling the non-compat
system call.

Therefore introduce COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAPx macros which generate C code that
is nearly identical to the assembly code. This has the advantage that the
compile will generate correct code, and we avoid the frequent copy-paste
errors seen in the compat_wrapper.S file.

Heiko Carstens d72d2bb5a6 s390/checksum: remove memset() within csum_partial_copy_from_user()
The memset() within csum_partial_copy_from_user() is rather pointless since
copy_from_user() already cleared the rest of the destination buffer if an
exception happened.

Heiko Carstens 823002023d s390/uaccess: remove copy_from_user_real()
There is no user left, so remove it.
It was also potentially broken, since the function didn't clear destination
memory if copy_from_user() failed. Which would allow for information leaks.

Sebastian Ott f7e1e65d29 s390: improve debug feature usage
The maximum usable buffer size of the s390 debug feature (when using
the sprintf_view) is 11 * sizeof(long) (1 pointer for the format
string + 10 arguments). When a larger buffer size is specified the
additional memory is unused and wasted per debug entry. So reducing
the buffer size to its maximum (or to the actual buffer size used)
will make more precious debug feature space usable.

For pci_msg, chsc_msg, and cio_crw we use the additional usable dbf
space to reduce the number of allocated pages.
