s390/uaccess: rework uaccess code - fix locking issues
The current uaccess code uses a page table walk in some circumstances,
e.g. in case of the in atomic futex operations or if running on old
hardware which doesn't support the mvcos instruction.
However it turned out that the page table walk code does not correctly
lock page tables when accessing page table entries.
In other words: a different cpu may invalidate a page table entry while
the current cpu inspects the pte. This may lead to random data corruption.
Adding correct locking however isn't trivial for all uaccess operations.
Especially copy_in_user() is problematic since that requires to hold at
least two locks, but must be protected against ABBA deadlock when a
different cpu also performs a copy_in_user() operation.
So the solution is a different approach where we change address spaces:
User space runs in primary address mode, or access register mode within
vdso code, like it currently already does.
The kernel usually also runs in home space mode, however when accessing
user space the kernel switches to primary or secondary address mode if
the mvcos instruction is not available or if a compare-and-swap (futex)
instruction on a user space address is performed.
KVM however is special, since that requires the kernel to run in home
address space while implicitly accessing user space with the sie
instruction.
So we end up with:
User space:
- runs in primary or access register mode
- cr1 contains the user asce
- cr7 contains the user asce
- cr13 contains the kernel asce
Kernel space:
- runs in home space mode
- cr1 contains the user or kernel asce
-> the kernel asce is loaded when a uaccess requires primary or
secondary address mode
- cr7 contains the user or kernel asce, (changed with set_fs())
- cr13 contains the kernel asce
In case of uaccess the kernel changes to:
- primary space mode in case of a uaccess (copy_to_user) and uses
e.g. the mvcp instruction to access user space. However the kernel
will stay in home space mode if the mvcos instruction is available
- secondary space mode in case of futex atomic operations, so that the
instructions come from primary address space and data from secondary
space
In case of kvm the kernel runs in home space mode, but cr1 gets switched
to contain the gmap asce before the sie instruction gets executed. When
the sie instruction is finished cr1 will be switched back to contain the
user asce.
A context switch between two processes will always load the kernel asce
for the next process in cr1. So the first exit to user space is a bit
more expensive (one extra load control register instruction) than before,
however keeps the code rather simple.
In sum this means there is no need to perform any error prone page table
walks anymore when accessing user space.
The patch seems to be rather large, however it mainly removes the
the page table walk code and restores the previously deleted "standard"
uaccess code, with a couple of changes.
The uaccess without mvcos mode can be enforced with the "uaccess_primary"
kernel parameter.

s390/vtimer: rework virtual timer interface
The current virtual timer interface is inherently per-cpu and hard to
use. The sole user of the interface is appldata which uses it to execute
a function after a specific amount of cputime has been used over all cpus.
Rework the virtual timer interface to hook into the cputime accounting.
This makes the interface independent from the CPU timer interrupts, and
makes the virtual timers global as opposed to per-cpu.
Overall the code is greatly simplified. The downside is that the accuracy
is not as good as the original implementation, but it is still good enough
for appldata.

s390/smp: make absolute lowcore / cpu restart parameter accesses more robust
Setting the cpu restart parameters is done in three different fashions:
- directly setting the four parameters individually
- copying the four parameters with memcpy (using 4 * sizeof(long))
- copying the four parameters using a private structure
In addition code in entry*.S relies on a certain order of the restart
members of struct _lowcore.
Make all of this more robust to future changes by adding a
mem_absolute_assign(dest, val) define, which assigns val to dest
using absolute addressing mode. Also the load multiple instructions
in entry*.S have been split into separate load instruction so the
order of the struct _lowcore members doesn't matter anymore.
In addition move the prototypes of memcpy_real/absolute from uaccess.h
to processor.h. These memcpy* variants are not related to uaccess at all.
string.h doesn't seem to match as well, so lets use processor.h.
Also replace the eight byte array in struct _lowcore which represents a
misaliged u64 with a u64. The compiler will always create code that
handles the misaligned u64 correctly.

[S390] rework idle code
Whenever the cpu loads an enabled wait PSW it will appear as idle to the
underlying host system. The code in default_idle calls vtime_stop_cpu
which does the necessary voodoo to get the cpu time accounting right.
The udelay code just loads an enabled wait PSW. To correct this rework
the vtime_stop_cpu/vtime_start_cpu logic and move the difficult parts
to entry[64].S, vtime_stop_cpu can now be called from anywhere and
vtime_start_cpu is gone. The correction of the cpu time during wakeup
from an enabled wait PSW is done with a critical section in entry[64].S.
As vtime_start_cpu is gone, s390_idle_check can be removed as well.

Define struct pcpu and merge some of the NR_CPUS arrays into it, including
__cpu_logical_map, current_set and smp_cpu_state. Split smp related
functions to those operating on physical cpus and the functions operating

pointer to a struct pcpu. This hides the knowledge about cpu addresses in
smp.c, entry[64].S and swsusp_asm64.S, thus remove the sigp.h header.
The PSW restart mechanism is used to start secondary cpus, calling a
function on an online cpu, calling a function on the ipl cpu, and for
the nmi signal. Replace the different assembler functions with a
single function restart_int_handler. The new entry point calls a function
whose pointer is stored in the lowcore of the target cpu and it can wait
for the source cpu to stop. This covers all existing use cases.
Overall the code is now simpler and there are ~380 lines less code.

[S390] signal race with restarting system calls
For a ERESTARTNOHAND/ERESTARTSYS/ERESTARTNOINTR restarting system call
do_signal will prepare the restart of the system call with a rewind of
the PSW before calling get_signal_to_deliver (where the debugger might
take control). For A ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK restarting system call
do_signal will set -EINTR as return code.
There are two issues with this approach:
1) strace never sees ERESTARTNOHAND, ERESTARTSYS, ERESTARTNOINTR or
ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK as the rewinding already took place or the
return code has been changed to -EINTR
2) if get_signal_to_deliver does not return with a signal to deliver
the restart via the repeat of the svc instruction is left in place.
This opens a race if another signal is made pending before the
system call instruction can be reexecuted. The original system call
will be restarted even if the second signal would have ended the
system call with -EINTR.
These two issues can be solved by dropping the early rewind of the
system call before get_signal_to_deliver has been called and by using
the TIF_RESTART_SVC magic to do the restart if no signal has to be
delivered. The only situation where the system call restart via the
repeat of the svc instruction is appropriate is when a SA_RESTART
signal is delivered to user space.
Unfortunately this breaks inferior calls by the debugger again. The
system call number and the length of the system call instruction is
lost over the inferior call and user space will see ERESTARTNOHAND/
ERESTARTSYS/ERESTARTNOINTR/ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK. To correct this a
new ptrace interface is added to save/restore the system call number
and system call instruction length.

[S390] Remove data execution protection
The noexec support on s390 does not rely on a bit in the page table
entry but utilizes the secondary space mode to distinguish between
memory accesses for instructions vs. data. The noexec code relies
on the assumption that the cpu will always use the secondary space
page table for data accesses while it is running in the secondary
space mode. Up to the z9-109 class machines this has been the case.
Unfortunately this is not true anymore with z10 and later machines.
The load-relative-long instructions lrl, lgrl and lgfrl access the
memory operand using the same addressing-space mode that has been
used to fetch the instruction.
This breaks the noexec mode for all user space binaries compiled
with march=z10 or later. The only option is to remove the current
noexec support.

[S390] idle time accounting vs. machine checks
A machine check can interrupt the i/o and external interrupt handler
anytime. If the machine check occurs while the interrupt handler is
waking up from idle vtime_start_cpu can get executed a second time
and the int_clock / async_enter_timer values in the lowcore get
clobbered. This can confuse the cpu time accounting.
To fix this problem two changes are needed. First the machine check
handler has to use its own copies of int_clock and async_enter_timer,
named mcck_clock and mcck_enter_timer. Second the nested execution
of vtime_start_cpu has to be prevented. This is done in s390_idle_check
by checking the wait bit in the program status word.

[S390] vdso: use ntp adjusted clock multiplier
Commit "timekeeping: Fix clock_gettime vsyscall time warp" (0696b711e)
introduced the new parameter "mult" to update_vsyscall(). This parameter
contains the internal NTP adjusted clock multiplier.
The s390x vdso did not use this adjusted multiplier. Instead, it used
the constant clock multiplier for gettimeofday() and clock_gettime()
variants. This may result in observable time warps as explained in
commit 0696b711e.
Make the NTP adjusted clock multiplier available to the s390x vdso
implementation and use it for time calculations.

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.

[S390] hibernate: Do real CPU swap at resume time
Currently, when the physical resume CPU is not equal to the physical suspend
CPU, we swap the CPUs logically, by modifying the logical/physical CPU mapping.
This has two major drawbacks: First the change is visible from user space (e.g.
CPU sysfs files) and second it is hard to ensure that nowhere in the kernel
the physical CPU ID is stored before suspend.
To fix this, we now really swap the physical CPUs, if the resume CPU is not
the pysical suspend CPU. We restart the suspend CPU and stop the resume CPU
using SIGP restart and SIGP stop. If the suspend CPU is no longer available,
we write a message and load a disabled wait PSW.

The extract cpu time instruction (ectg) instruction allows the user
process to get the current thread cputime without calling into the
kernel. The code that uses the instruction needs to switch to the
access registers mode to get access to the per-cpu info page that
contains the two base values that are needed to calculate the current
cputime from the CPU timer with the ectg instruction.

[S390] fix system call parameter functions.
syscall_get_nr() currently returns a valid result only if the call
chain of the traced process includes do_syscall_trace_enter(). But
collect_syscall() can be called for any sleeping task, the result of
syscall_get_nr() in general is completely bogus.
To make syscall_get_nr() work for any sleeping task the traps field
in pt_regs is replace with svcnr - the system call number the process
is executing. If svcnr == 0 the process is not on a system call path.
The syscall_get_arguments and syscall_set_arguments use regs->gprs[2]
for the first system call parameter. This is incorrect since gprs[2]
may have been overwritten with the system call number if the call
chain includes do_syscall_trace_enter. Use regs->orig_gprs2 instead.

rename thread_info to stack
This finally renames the thread_info field in task structure to stack, so that
the assumptions about this field are gone and archs have more freedom about
placing the thread_info structure.
Nonbroken archs which have a proper thread pointer can do the access to both
current thread and task structure via a single pointer.
It'll allow for a few more cleanups of the fork code, from which e.g. ia64
