2011-02-17[S390] net: provide architecture specific NET_SKB_PADHorst Hartmann
NET_SKB_PAD has been increased from 32 to 64 and later to max(32, L1_CACHE_BYTES). This led to a 25% throughput decrease for streaming workloads accompanied by a 37% CPU cost increase on s390. Define a architecture specific NET_SKB_PAD with the old value of 32. Signed-off-by: Horst Hartmann <horsth@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2011-02-17[S390] correct ipl parameter block safe guardMartin Schwidefsky
The 'output' variable is passed from decompress_kernel to check_ipl_parmblock before it is initialized. That disables the safe guard against the overwrite of the ipl parameter block. Fix this by passing the correct value to check_ipl_parmblock. Reported-by: David Binderman <dcb314@hotmail.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2011-02-15s390: remove task_show_regsMartin Schwidefsky
task_show_regs used to be a debugging aid in the early bringup days of Linux on s390. /proc/<pid>/status is a world readable file, it is not a good idea to show the registers of a process. The only correct fix is to remove task_show_regs.

2011-02-07crypto: sha-s390 - Reset index after processing partial blockHerbert Xu
The partial block handling in sha-s390 is broken when we get a partial block that is followed by an update which fills it with bytes left-over. Instead of storing the newly left-over bytes at the start of the buffer, it will be stored immediately after the previous partial block. This patch fixes this by resetting the index pointer.

2011-01-12[S390] Enable flexible mmap layout for 64 bit processesHeiko Carstens

2011-01-12[S390] vdso: dont map at mmap_baseHeiko Carstens
The vdso object is currently always mapped with mm->mmap_base used as requested address. In case of flexible mmap layout this means it gets mapped above mmap_base and therefore potentially stealing a bit of address space that is reserved for the stack. In case of flexible mmap layout the object should be mapped below mmap base. For legacy mmap layout above. To fix this just don't request any specific address and let the mmap code figure out an address that fits.

2011-01-12[S390] mmap: consider stack address randomizationHeiko Carstens
Consider stack address randomization when calulating mmap_base for flexible mmap layout . Because of address randomization the stack address can be up to 8MB lower than STACK_TOP. When calculating mmap_base this isn't taken into account, which could lead to the case that the gap between the real stack top and mmap_base is lower than what ulimit specifies for the maximum stack size.

2011-01-05[S390] mutex: Introduce arch_mutex_cpu_relax()Gerald Schaefer
The spinning mutex implementation uses cpu_relax() in busy loops as a compiler barrier. Depending on the architecture, cpu_relax() may do more than needed in this specific mutex spin loops. On System z we also give up the time slice of the virtual cpu in cpu_relax(), which prevents effective spinning on the mutex. This patch replaces cpu_relax() in the spinning mutex code with arch_mutex_cpu_relax(), which can be defined by each architecture that selects HAVE_ARCH_MUTEX_CPU_RELAX. The default is still cpu_relax(), so this patch should not affect other architectures than System z for now.
