Prepending irq-unsafe vtime APIs with underscores was actually
a bad idea as the result is a big mess in the API namespace that
is even waiting to be further extended. Also these helpers
are always called from irq safe callers except kvm. Just
provide a vtime_account_system_irqsafe() for this specific
case so that we can remove the underscore prefix on other
vtime functions.

irq work can run on any arch even without IPI
support because of the hook on update_process_times().
So lets remove HAVE_IRQ_WORK because it doesn't reflect
any backend requirement.

In order to promote interoperability between userspace tracers and ftrace,
add a trace_clock that reports raw TSC values which will then be recorded
in the ring buffer. Userspace tracers that also record TSCs are then on
exactly the same time base as the kernel and events can be unambiguously
interlaced.
Tested: Enabled a tracepoint and the "tsc" trace_clock and saw very large
timestamp values.
v2:
Move arch-specific bits out of generic code.
v3:
Rename "x86-tsc", cleanups
v7:
Generic arch bits in Kbuild.

Select HAVE_ALIGNED_STRUCT_PAGE on s390, so that the slub allocator can make
use of compare and swap double for lockless updates. This increases the size
of struct page to 64 bytes (instead of 56 bytes), however the performance gain
justifies the increased size:
- now excactly four struct pages fit into a single cache line; the
case that accessing a struct page causes two cache line loads
does not exist anymore.
- calculating the offset of a struct page within the memmap array
is only a simple shift instead of a more expensive multiplication.
A "hackbench 200 process 200" run on a 32 cpu system did show an 8% runtime
improvement.

access_ok() returns always "true" on s390. Therefore all access_ok()
invocations are rather pointless.
However when walking page tables we need to make sure that everything
is within bounds of the ASCE limit of the task's address space.
So remove the access_ok() call and add the same check we have in
get_user_pages_fast().

When walking page tables we need to make sure that everything
is within bounds of the ASCE limit of the task's address space.
Otherwise we might calculate e.g. a pud pointer which is not
within a pud and dereference it.
So check against TASK_SIZE (which is the ASCE limit) before
walking page tables.

The current topology code confuses core id vs physical package id.
In other words /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_id
displays the physical_package_id (aka socket id) instead of the
core id.
The physical_package_id sysfs attribute always displays "-1"
instead of the socket id.
Fix this mix-up with a small patch which defines and initializes
topology_physical_package_id correctly and fixes the broken
core id handling.

If user space is running in primary mode it can switch to secondary
or access register mode, this is used e.g. in the clock_gettime code
of the vdso. If a signal is delivered to the user space process while
it has been running in access register mode the signal handler is
executed in access register mode as well which will result in a crash
most of the time.
Set the address space control bits in the PSW to the default for the
execution of the signal handler and make sure that the previous
address space control is restored on signal return. Take care
that user space can not switch to the kernel address space by
modifying the registers in the signal frame.

The early mini sclp driver may be called in zArch mode either in
31 or 64 bit addressing mode.
If called in 31 bit addressing mode the new external interrupt psw
however would switch to 64 bit addressing mode. This would cause an
addressing exception within the interrupt handler, since the code
didn't expect the zArch/31 bit addressing mode combination.
Fix this by setting the new psw addressing mode bits so they fit
the current addressing mode.

The SO_ATTACH_FILTER option is set only. I propose to add the get
ability by using SO_ATTACH_FILTER in getsockopt. To be less
irritating to eyes the SO_GET_FILTER alias to it is declared. This
ability is required by checkpoint-restore project to be able to
save full state of a socket.
There are two issues with getting filter back.
First, kernel modifies the sock_filter->code on filter load, thus in
order to return the filter element back to user we have to decode it
into user-visible constants. Fortunately the modification in question
is interconvertible.
Second, the BPF_S_ALU_DIV_K code modifies the command argument k to
speed up the run-time division by doing kernel_k = reciprocal(user_k).
Bad news is that different user_k may result in same kernel_k, so we
can't get the original user_k back. Good news is that we don't have
to do it. What we need to is calculate a user2_k so, that
reciprocal(user2_k) == reciprocal(user_k) == kernel_k
i.e. if it's re-loaded back the compiled again value will be exactly
the same as it was. That said, the user2_k can be calculated like this
user2_k = reciprocal(kernel_k)
with an exception, that if kernel_k == 0, then user2_k == 1.
The optlen argument is treated like this -- when zero, kernel returns
the amount of sock_fprog elements in filter, otherwise it should be
large enough for the sock_fprog array.

* Declared SO_GET_FILTER in all arch headers

Switching to or from guest context is done on ioctl context.
So by the time we call kvm_guest_enter() or kvm_guest_exit()
we know we are not running the idle task.
As a result, we can directly account the cputime using
vtime_account_system().
There are two good reasons to do this:
* We avoid some useless checks on guest switch. It optimizes
a bit this fast path.
* In the case of CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING, calling vtime_account()
checks for irq time to account. This is pointless since we know
we are not in an irq on guest switch. This is wasting cpu cycles
for no good reason. vtime_account_system() OTOH is a no-op in
this config option.
* We can remove the irq disable/enable around kvm guest switch in s390.
A further optimization may consist in introducing a vtime_account_guest()
that directly calls account_guest_time().

vtime_account_system() currently has only one caller with
vtime_account() which is irq safe.
Now we are going to call it from other places like kvm where
irqs are not always disabled by the time we account the cputime.
So let's make it irqsafe. The arch implementation part is now
prefixed with "__".
vtime_account_idle() arch implementation is prefixed accordingly
to stay consistent.

It turns out that S390 shouldn't use uapi/asm-generic/kvm_para.h since it
defines the functions in its non-UAPI kvm_para.h file.
#including <asm-generic/kvm_para.h> will first pick up
include/asm-generic/kvm_para.h, which defines conflicting functions.
Instead, partially revert commit 0420c87e648a3b623ad925038a0bcff2ef5a4bc9,
ungenericising this file and just inserting a comment to prevent the patch
program from deleting it.

Because of a change in the s390 arch backend of binutils (commit 23ecd77
"Pick the default arch depending on the target size" in binutils repo)
31 bit builds will fail since the linker would now try to create 64 bit

Newer kernels (linux-next with the transparent huge page patches)
use rrbm if the feature is announced via feature bit 66.
RRBM will cause intercepts, so KVM does not handle it right now,

The load of the svc number in the TIF_SYSCALL restart path needs to be
done with an instruction that loads all 64 bits of %r1, 'lh' only loads
32 bits. If the upper half of %r1 is not zero and has the msb set,
entry64.S will try to execute an svc with a really large number.
What will be in the upper half of %r1 depends on the code generated by
gcc for the functions on the do_signal() callchain.

vmem_add_mem() should only then insert a large page if pmd_none() is true
for the specific entry. We might have a leftover from a previous mapping.
In addition make vmem_remove_range()'s page table walk code more complete
and fix a couple of potential endless loops (which can never happen :).

Add a special module area on top of the vmalloc area, which may be only
used for modules and bpf jit generated code.
This makes sure that inter module branches will always happen without a
trampoline and in addition having all the code within a 2GB frame is
branch prediction unit friendly.

Let the kernel text section always begin at 1MB. This allows to always have
a large frame in the identity mapping of the kernel image for beginning of
the text section, if the machine has EDAT1 support.
Moving the beginning from 64K to 1MB doesn't cost any memory, since we make
the memory between 64K and 1MB available for the page allocator.

Within the identity mapping the kernel text section is mapped read-only.
However when mapping the first and last page of the text section we must
round upwards and downwards respectively, if only parts of a page belong
to the section.
Otherwise potential rw data can be mapped read-only. So the rounding must
be done just the other way we have it right now.

This is more or less the same as the x86 page table dumper which was
merged four years ago: 926e5392 "x86: add code to dump the (kernel)
page tables for visual inspection by kernel developers".
We add a file at /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables for debugging
purposes so it's quite easy to see the kernel page table layout and
possible odd mappings:

This usually makes only sense for kernel developers. The output
with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is not very helpful, because of the
huge number of mapped out pages, however I decided for the time
being to not add a !DEBUG_PAGEALLOC dependency.
Maybe it's helpful for somebody even with that option.

Do the switch to z/Architecture (alias 64 bit) mode early in head.S.
If the machine is already running in 64 bit mode the sigp turns into
a nop. With this change it doesn't matter in which mode the kernel
is started.

The current page table walk code in pageattr.c only checks for large pages
while walking the kernel page table, but happily assumes that everything
else is just fine.
Add more checks so we never access invalid memory regions.

pmd_huge() will always return 0 on !HUGETLBFS, however we use that helper
function when walking the kernel page tables to decide if we have a
1MB page frame or not.
Since we create 1MB frames for the kernel 1:1 mapping independently of
HUGETLBFS this can lead to incorrect storage accesses since the code
can assume that we have a pointer to a page table instead of a pointer
to a 1MB frame.
Fix this by adding a pmd_large() primitive like other architectures have
it already and remove all references to HUGETLBFS/HUGETLBPAGE from the
code that walks kernel page tables.
