The uname system call for 64 bit compares current->personality without
masking the upper 16 bits. If e.g. READ_IMPLIES_EXEC is set the result
of a uname system call will always be s390x even if the process uses
the s390 personality.

cpu_coregroup_map used to grab a mutex on s390 since it was only
called from process context.
Since c7c22e4d5c1fdebfac4dba76de7d0338c2b0d832 "block: add support
for IO CPU affinity" this is not true anymore.
It now also gets called from softirq context.
To prevent possible deadlocks change this in architecture code and
use a spinlock instead of a mutex.

With CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER the trace_hardirqs_off() function includes
a call to __builtin_return_address(1). But we calltrace_hardirqs_off()
from early entry code. There we have just a single stack frame.
So this results in a kernel stack backchain walk that would walk beyond
the kernel stack. Following the NULL terminated backchain this results
in a lowcore read access.
To fix this we simply call trace_hardirqs_off_caller() and pass the
current instruction pointer.

add_active_range() expects start_pfn + size as end_pfn value, i.e. not
the pfn of the last page frame but the one behind that.
We used the pfn of the last page frame so far, which can lead to a
BUG_ON in move_freepages(), when the kernelcore parameter is specified
(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page)).

We got a stack overflow with a small stack configuration on a 32 bit
system. It just looks like as 4kb isn't enough and too dangerous.
So lets get rid of 4kb stacks on 32 bit.
But one thing I completely dislike about the call trace below is that
just for debugging or tracing purposes sprintf gets called (cio_start_key):
/* process condition code */
sprintf(dbf_txt, "ccode:%d", ccode);
CIO_TRACE_EVENT(4, dbf_txt);
But maybe its just me who thinks that this could be done better.

Use sysdev_class_create_file() to create create sysdev class attributes
instead of sysfs_create_file(). Using sysfs_create_file() wasn't a very
good idea since the show and store functions have a different amount of
parameters for sysfs files and sysdev class files.
In particular the pointer to the buffer is the last argument and
therefore accesses to random memory regions happened.
Still worked surprisingly well until we got a kernel panic.

The current enable_sie code sets the mm->context.pgstes bit to tell
dup_mm that the new mm should have extended page tables. This bit is also
used by the s390 specific page table primitives to decide about the page
table layout - which means context.pgstes has two meanings. This can cause
any kind of bugs. For example - e.g. shrink_zone can call
ptep_clear_flush_young while enable_sie is running. ptep_clear_flush_young
will test for context.pgstes. Since enable_sie changed that value of the old
struct mm without changing the page table layout ptep_clear_flush_young will
do the wrong thing.
The solution is to split pgstes into two bits
- one for the allocation
- one for the current state

This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups
framework. It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in
a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem.
The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named
freezer.state. Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks
in the cgroup. Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in
the cgroup. Reading will return the current state.
* Examples of usage :
# mkdir /containers/freezer
# mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer /containers
# mkdir /containers/0
# echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks
to get status of the freezer subsystem :
# cat /containers/0/freezer.state
RUNNING
to freeze all tasks in the container :
# echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state
# cat /containers/0/freezer.state
FREEZING
# cat /containers/0/freezer.state
FROZEN
to unfreeze all tasks in the container :
# echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state
# cat /containers/0/freezer.state
RUNNING
This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space
task in a simple scenario.
It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete. In that case we
return EBUSY. This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing
something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this
time. After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected
by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read. The state will remain
"FREEZING" until one of these things happens:
1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to
the freezer.state file
2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to
the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal
and returns EIO)
3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN"
state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.

This patch series introduces a cgroup subsystem that utilizes the swsusp
freezer to freeze a group of tasks. It's immediately useful for batch job
management scripts. It should also be useful in the future for
implementing container checkpoint/restart.
The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a cgroup file
named freezer.state. Reading freezer.state will return the current state
of the cgroup. Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks
in the cgroup. Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in
the cgroup.
* Examples of usage :
# mkdir /containers/freezer
# mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer /containers
# mkdir /containers/0
# echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks
to get status of the freezer subsystem :
# cat /containers/0/freezer.state
RUNNING
to freeze all tasks in the container :
# echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state
# cat /containers/0/freezer.state

# echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state

This patch:
The first step in making the refrigerator() available to all

The purpose of such a change is to be able to use the refrigerator() in a

struct stat / compat_stat is the same on all architectures, so
cp_compat_stat should be, too.
Turns out it is, except that various architectures have slightly and some
high2lowuid/high2lowgid or the direct assignment instead of the
SET_UID/SET_GID that expands to the correct one anyway.
This patch replaces the arch-specific cp_compat_stat implementations with
a common one based on the x86-64 one.

This fixes a regression that came with 934b2857cc576ae53c92a66e63fce7ddcfa74691
("[S390] nohz/sclp: disable timer on synchronous waits.").
If udelay() gets called from a disabled context it sets the clock comparator
to a value where it expects the next interrupt. When the interrupt happens
the clock comparator gets not reset and therefore the interrupt condition
doesn't get cleared. The result is an endless timer interrupt loop.
In addition this patch fixes also the following:
rcutorture reveals that our __udelay implementation is still buggy,
since it might schedule tasklets, but prevents their execution:
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 42
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 142
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02
To fix this we make sure that only the clock comparator interrupt
is enabled when the enabled wait psw is loaded.
Also no code gets called anymore which might schedule tasklets.

When running a 31-bit ptrace, on either an s390 or s390x kernel,
reads and writes into a padding area in struct user_regs_struct32
will result in a kernel panic.
This is also known as CVE-2008-1514.
Test case available here:
http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/tests/ptrace-tests/tests/user-area-padding.c?cvsroot=systemtap
Steps to reproduce:
1) wget the above
2) gcc -o user-area-padding-31bit user-area-padding.c -Wall -ggdb2 -D_GNU_SOURCE -m31
3) ./user-area-padding-31bit
<panic>
Test status
-----------
Without patch, both s390 and s390x kernels panic. With patch, the test case,
as well as the gdb testsuite, pass without incident, padding area reads
returning zero, writes ignored.
Nb: original version returned -EINVAL on write attempts, which broke the
gdb test and made the test case slightly unhappy, Jan Kratochvil suggested
the change to return 0 on write attempts.

Right now, there is no notifier that is called on a new cpu, before the new
cpu begins processing interrupts/softirqs.
Various kernel function would need that notification, e.g. kvm works around
by calling smp_call_function_single(), rcu polls cpu_online_map.
The patch adds a CPU_STARTING notification. It also adds a helper function
that sends the message to all cpu_chain handlers.
Tested on x86-64.
All other archs are untested. Especially on sparc, I'm not sure if I got
it right.

ext4 does not work on s390 because ext2_find_next_bit is broken. Fortunately
this function is only used by ext4. The function uses ffs which does not work
analog to ffz. The result of ffs has an offset of 1 which is not taken into
account. To fix this use the low level __ffs_word function directly instead
of the ill defined ffs.
In addition the patch improves find_next_zero_bit and ext2_find_next_zero_bit
by passing the bit offset into __ffz_word instead of adding it after the
function call returned.

Fix these two (false positive) warnings by adding an __init annoation:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x7e6a): Section mismatch in reference from the function stp_reset() to the function .init.text:__alloc_bootmem()
The function stp_reset() references
the function __init __alloc_bootmem().
This is often because stp_reset lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of __alloc_bootmem is wrong.
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x7ece): Section mismatch in reference from the function stp_reset() to the function .init.text:free_bootmem()
The function stp_reset() references
the function __init free_bootmem().
This is often because stp_reset lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of free_bootmem is wrong.
