s390: add assembler include path for vx-insn.h

2016-09-06T09:00:04+00:00

With git commit 0eab11c7e0d30de14a15ccd8269eef238321a8e1 "s390/vx: allow to include vx-insn.h with .include" and an older gcc we get errors like this: {standard input}:6: Error: can't open asm/vx-insn.h for reading: No such file or directory arch/s390/kernel/fpu.c:57: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `vstm' To solve this issue simply add the path to arch/s390/include to all assembler runs.

s390/facilities: add helper tool to generate facility lists

2015-12-18T13:59:20+00:00

Modifying the architecture level set facility lists was always very error prone. Given the numbering of the facility bits within the Principles of Operation, where the most significant bit number is 0, it happened a lot of times that wrong bits were set or cleared. Therefore this patch adds a tool "gen_facilities" which generates include/generated/facilites.h. The definition of the bits to be set is contained within arch/s390/include/asm/facilities_src.h and can be easily extended to e.g. also generate such lists for the KVM module. The generated file looks like this: #define FACILITIES_ALS _AC(0xc1006450f0040000,UL) #define FACILITIES_ALS_DWORDS 1 The facility bits defined in this patch match 1:1 to the current masks that can be found in head.S. That is if the tool gets executed with -march=z990 then the generated masks will equal the masks in head.S for CONFIG_MARCH_Z990. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390/sclp: convert early sclp console code to C

2015-07-29T07:11:39+00:00

The 31-bit assembler code for the early sclp console is error prone as git commit fde24b54d976cc123506695c17db01438a11b673 "s390/sclp: clear upper register halves in _sclp_print_early" has shown. Convert the assembler code to C. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390: remove 31 bit support

2015-03-25T10:49:33+00:00

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/ftrace: hotpatch support for function tracing

2015-01-29T08:19:25+00:00

Make use of gcc's hotpatch support to generate better code for ftrace function tracing. The generated code now contains only a six byte nop in each function prologue instead of a 24 byte code block which will be runtime patched to support function tracing. With the new code generation the runtime overhead for supporting function tracing is close to zero, while the original code did show a significant performance impact.

s390: add z13 code generation support

s390: pass march flag to assembly files as well

2014-09-09T06:53:28+00:00

Currently the march flag gets only passed to C files, but not to assembler files. This means that we can't add new instructions like e.g. aghik to asm files, since the assembler doesn't know of the new instructions if the appropriate march flag isn't specified. So also pass the march flag when compiling assembler files as well. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390: allow to set gcc -mtune flag

2013-10-31T08:54:01+00:00

Add a new Kconfig choice group which allows to configure how gcc should tune the generated code (via -mtune option). By default the -mtune parameter will match the -march parameter. This is a rather large patch, but I wouldn't know how to make this shorter unfortunately. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390: always set -march compiler option

2013-10-24T15:16:44+00:00

Currently we only set the -march compiler option if the kbuild system figured out that the compiler actually supports the selected architecture (cc-option test). In result this means that no -march compiler option is set when an unsupported cpu architecture of the current compiler is selected. The kernel compile will afterwards succeed but with the default architecture instead of the (unsupported) selected one. Change this behaviour, so compiles will fail if the compiler does not support the selected cpu architecture. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky
