2010-02-26[S390] add support for compressed kernelsMartin Schwidefsky
Add the "bzImage" compile target and the necessary code to generate compressed kernel images. The old style uncompressed "image" target is preserved, a simple make will build them both. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2010-02-26[S390] codepage conversion of kernel parameter lineMartin Schwidefsky

2010-02-26[S390] add z9-ec/z10 instruction to kernel disassemblerMartin Schwidefsky
Add the instruction of the z9-ec and z10 machines to the kernel disassembler. Add the missing "ptff" instruction of z9-109 and the missing "sqd" of g5. Remove useless comments with instruction examples from format table. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2010-02-26[S390] Cleanup struct _lowcore usage and defines.Heiko Carstens
Use asm offsets to make sure the offset defines to struct _lowcore and its layout don't get out of sync. Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON() which checks that the size of the structure is sane. And while being at it change those sites which use odd casts to access the current lowcore. These should use S390_lowcore instead.

2010-02-26[S390] use inline assembly contraints available with gcc 3.3.3Martin Schwidefsky
Drop support to compile the kernel with gcc versions older than 3.3.3. This allows us to use the "Q" inline assembly contraint on some more inline assemblies without duplicating a lot of complex code (e.g. __xchg and __cmpxchg). The distinction for older gcc versions can be removed which saves a few lines and simplifies the code.

Makes use of skip_spaces() defined in lib/string.c for removing leading spaces from strings all over the tree. It decreases lib.a code size by 47 bytes and reuses the function tree-wide: text data bss dec hex filename 64688 584 592 65864 10148 (TOTALS-BEFORE) 64641 584 592 65817 10119 (TOTALS-AFTER) Also, while at it, if we see (*str && isspace(*str)), we can be sure to remove the first condition (*str) as the second one (isspace(*str)) also evaluates to 0 whenever *str == 0, making it redundant. In other words, "a char equals zero is never a space".

2009-11-13[S390] s390: fix single stepping on svc0Christian Borntraeger
On s390 there are two ways of specifying the system call number for the svc instruction. The standard way is to use the immediate field in the instruction (or to use EXecute for values unknown during assemble time). This can encode 256 system calls. The kernel ABI also allows to put the system call number in r1 and then execute svc 0 to enable system call numbers > 255. It turns out that single stepping svc 0 is broken, since the PER program check handler uses r1. We have to use a different register.

2009-11-13[S390] reset cputime accounting after IPL from NSSMartin Schwidefsky
After an IPL from NSS the uptime of the system is incorrect. The reason is that the startup code in head.S is not executed in case of an IPL from NSS. Due to that sched_clock_base_cc which is used to initialze wall_to_monotonic contains the time stamp when the NSS has been created instead of the time stamp of the system start.

2009-10-29[S390] smp: fix sigp sense handlingHeiko Carstens
sigp sense only returns the status of a cpu if it is non zero. If the status of the sensed cpu is all zeros condition code 0 (accpeted) is set and no status bits are returned. The current code however assumes that a status was returned and tests bits in it. This means uninitalized data is accessed with random results. Worst case is that the code that checks if cpu is offline on cpu hotplug assumes that the target cpu is offline while it is still running. This leads potentially to memory corruption since resources that are still needed by the target cpu will be freed and could be resused while still in use.
