- Standardize on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by GCC and
Clang compilers and replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in both
uapi and non-uapi headers
- Explicitly include <linux/export.h> in architecture and driver files
which contain an EXPORT_SYMBOL() and remove the include from the
files which do not contain the EXPORT_SYMBOL()
- Use the full title of "z/Architecture Principles of Operation" manual
and the name of a section where facility bits are listed
- Use -D__DISABLE_EXPORTS for files in arch/s390/boot to avoid
unnecessary slowing down of the build and confusing external kABI
tools that process symtypes data
- Print additional unrecoverable machine check information to make the
root cause analysis easier
- Move cmpxchg_user_key() handling to uaccess library code, since the
generated code is large anyway and there is no benefit if it is
inlined
- Fix a problem when cmpxchg_user_key() is executing a code with a
non-default key: if a system is IPL-ed with "LOAD NORMAL", and the
previous system used storage keys where the fetch-protection bit was
set for some pages, and the cmpxchg_user_key() is located within such
page, a protection exception happens
- Either the external call or emergency signal order is used to send an
IPI to a remote CPU. Use the external order only, since it is at
least as good and sometimes even better, than the emergency signal
- In case of an early crash the early program check handler prints more
or less random value of the last breaking event address, since it is
not initialized properly. Copy the last breaking event address from
the lowcore to pt_regs to address this
- During STP synchronization check udelay() can not be used, since the
first CPU modifies tod_clock_base and get_tod_clock_monotonic() might
return a non-monotonic time. Instead, busy-loop on other CPUs, while
the the first CPU actually handles the synchronization operation
- When debugging the early kernel boot using QEMU with the -S flag and
GDB attached, skip the decompressor and start directly in kernel
- Rename PAI Crypto event 4210 according to z16 and z17 "z/Architecture
Principles of Operation" manual
- Remove the in-kernel time steering support in favour of the new s390
PTP driver, which allows the kernel clock steered more precisely

When running the raid6 user-space test program on RISC-V QEMU, there's a
segmentation fault which seems caused by accessing a NULL pointer,
which is the pointer variable p/q in raid6_rvv*_gen/xor_syndrome_real(),
p/q should have been equal to dptr[x], but when I use GDB command to
see its value, which was 0x10 like below:
"
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x0000000000011062 in raid6_rvv2_xor_syndrome_real (disks=<optimized out>, start=0, stop=<optimized out>, bytes=4096, ptrs=<optimized out>) at rvv.c:386
(gdb) p p
$1 = (u8 *) 0x10 <error: Cannot access memory at address 0x10>
"
The issue was found to be related with:
1) Compile optimization
There's no segmentation fault if compiling the raid6test program with
the optimization flag -O0.
2) The RISC-V vector command vsetvli
If not used t0 as the first parameter in vsetvli, there's no
segmentation fault either.
This patch selects the 2nd solution to fix the issue.
[Palmer: The actual issue here is a missing clobber in the vsetvli code.
It's a little tricky: we've already probed for VLENB so we don't need to
look at the output register, we just need to have an X register in the
instruction as that's the form required to actually set VL. Thus we
clobber a register, and without describing that we end up breaking
compilers.]

Kbuild conventionally uses $(obj)/ for generated files, and $(src)/ for
checked-in source files. It is merely a convention without any functional
difference. In fact, $(obj) and $(src) are exactly the same, as defined
in scripts/Makefile.build:
src := $(obj)
When the kernel is built in a separate output directory, $(src) does
not accurately reflect the source directory location. While Kbuild
resolves this discrepancy by specifying VPATH=$(srctree) to search for
source files, it does not cover all cases. For example, when adding a
header search path for local headers, -I$(srctree)/$(src) is typically
passed to the compiler.
This introduces inconsistency between upstream and downstream Makefiles
because $(src) is used instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for the latter.
To address this inconsistency, this commit changes the semantics of
$(src) so that it always points to the directory in the source tree.
Going forward, the variables used in Makefiles will have the following
meanings:
$(obj) - directory in the object tree
$(src) - directory in the source tree (changed by this commit)
$(objtree) - the top of the kernel object tree
$(srctree) - the top of the kernel source tree
Consequently, $(srctree)/$(src) in upstream Makefiles need to be replaced
with $(src).

The kernel_fpu structure has a quite large size of 520 bytes. In order to
reduce stack footprint introduce several kernel fpu structures with
different and also smaller sizes. This way every kernel fpu user must use
the correct variant. A compile time check verifies that the correct variant
is used.
There are several users which use only 16 instead of all 32 vector
registers. For those users the new kernel_fpu_16 structure with a size of
only 266 bytes can be used.

Move, rename, and merge the fpu and vx header files. This way fpu header
files have a consistent naming scheme (fpu*.h).
Also get rid of the fpu subdirectory and move header files to asm
directory, so that all fpu and vx header files can be found at the same
location.
Merge internal.h header file into other header files, since the internal
helpers are used at many locations. so those helper functions are really
not internal.

Code sections in s390 specific kernel code which use floating point or
vector registers all come with a 520 byte stack variable to save already in
use registers, if required.
With INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN or INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO enabled this variable
will always be initialized on function entry in addition to saving register
contents, which contradicts the intention (performance improvement) of such
code sections.
Therefore provide a DECLARE_KERNEL_FPU_ONSTACK() macro which provides
struct kernel_fpu variables with an __uninitialized attribute, and convert
all existing code to use this.
This way only this specific type of stack variable will not be initialized,
regardless of config options.

Get rid of MACHINE_HAS_VX and replace it with cpu_has_vx() which is a
short readable wrapper for "test_facility(129)".
Facility bit 129 is set if the vector facility is present. test_facility()
returns also true for all bits which are set in the architecture level set
of the cpu that the kernel is compiled for. This means that
test_facility(129) is a compile time constant which returns true for z13
and later, since the vector facility bit is part of the z13 kernel ALS.
In result the compiled code will have less runtime checks, and less code.

Drop Itanium support from the RAID6 code, and along with it, the 16x and

Similar to the syndrome calculation, the recovery algorithms also work
on 64 bytes at a time to align with the L1 cache line size of current
and future LoongArch cores (that we care about). Which means
unrolled-by-4 LSX and unrolled-by-2 LASX code.
The assembly is originally based on the x86 SSSE3/AVX2 ports, but
register allocation has been redone to take advantage of LSX/LASX's 32
vector registers, and instruction sequence has been optimized to suit
(e.g. LoongArch can perform per-byte srl and andi on vectors, but x86
cannot).
Performance numbers measured by instrumenting the raid6test code, on a
3A5000 system clocked at 2.5GHz:
> lasx 2data: 354.987 MiB/s
> lasx datap: 350.430 MiB/s
> lsx 2data: 340.026 MiB/s
> lsx datap: 337.318 MiB/s
> intx1 2data: 164.280 MiB/s
> intx1 datap: 187.966 MiB/s
Because recovery algorithms are chosen solely based on priority and
availability, lasx is marked as priority 2 and lsx priority 1. At least
for the current generation of LoongArch micro-architectures, LASX should
always be faster than LSX whenever supported, and have similar power
consumption characteristics (because the only known LASX-capable uarch,
the LA464, always compute the full 256-bit result for vector ops).

The algorithms work on 64 bytes at a time, which is the L1 cache line
size of all current and future LoongArch cores (that we care about), as
confirmed by Huacai. The code is based on the generic int.uc algorithm,
unrolled 4 times for LSX and 2 times for LASX. Further unrolling does
not meaningfully improve the performance according to experiments.
Performance numbers measured during system boot on a 3A5000 @ 2.5GHz:
