b3dcf3de8e [S390] smp: fix sigp sense handling
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.

f8501ba77d [S390] smp: fix sigp stop handling
According to the architecture a cpu must not necessarily enter stopped
state after completion of a sigp instruction with "stop" order code.
So remove the BUG() statement after self sending sigp stop to avoid
that it ever gets reached.
Also add a sigp busy check to make sure that the order gets delivered.

4f8048ee73 [S390] smp: fix prefix handling of offlined cpus
Offlined cpus still have valid prefix register contents. Dumpers
will store the register contents of a cpu to the location where its
prefix register points to.
For offlined cpus the area (lowcore) has been freed and the dumper
would write the uninteresting contents of the offline cpu to a memory
location which might be in use by some other component and destroy
valueable information.
To fix this set the prefix register of offline cpus to absolute
address zero again. This prevents the current dumpers to write to
random memory locations.

1aaf179d04 [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.

88e012856d [S390] smp: fix cpu_possible_map initialization
The cpu_possible_map by default is initialized with all ones in s390.
If the kernel paramert possible_cpus=<x> is passed the cpu_possible_map
is supposed to have x bits set.
However the current code just sets the x bits without clearing the NR_CPUS
bits that were already set. So we end up with an unchanged map that has
all bits set.
To fix this just clear the map before setting any new bits.

This broke with def6cfb70b

93632d1bf7 [S390] cpumask: prepare for iterators to only go to nr_cpu_ids/nr_cpumask_bits.
Impact: cleanup, futureproof

In fact, all cpumask ops will only be valid (in general) for bit
numbers < nr_cpu_ids.  So use that instead of NR_CPUS in various
places (I also updated the immediate sites to use the new cpumask_
operators).

This is always safe: no cpu number can be >= nr_cpu_ids, and
nr_cpu_ids is initialized to NR_CPUS at boot.

98a79d6a50 cpumask: centralize cpu_online_map and cpu_possible_map
Impact: cleanup

Each SMP arch defines these themselves.  Move them to a central
location.

Twists:
1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a
   CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them.

2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'.
   Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere.

3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky
   so I just manipulate them both in sync.

4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map'
   declarations.

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

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.

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.

24d3e210c1 [S390] Fix build failure in __cpu_up()
The first argument to __ctl_store() should be the array to store
stuff in, not just the first element of that array.  With the
current code in __cpu_up(), mainline GCC dies with an internal
compiler error.  I didn't diagnose that further, but just fixed
the kernel bug.

67060d9c1f [S390] Fix section mismatch warnings.
This fixes the last remaining section mismatch warnings in s390
architecture code. It reveals also a real bug introduced by... me
with git commit 2069e978d5
("[S390] sparsemem vmemmap: initialize memmap.")

Calling the generic vmemmap_alloc_block() function to get initialized
memory is a nice idea, however that function is __meminit annotated
and therefore the function might be gone if we try to call it later.
This can happen if a DCSS segment gets added.

So basically revert the patch and clear the memmap explicitly to fix
the original bug.

85cb185dad [S390] smp: __smp_call_function_map vs cpu_online_map fix.
Both smp_call_function() and __smp_call_function_map() access
cpu_online_map. Both functions run with preemption disabled which
protects for cpus going offline. However new cpus can be added and
therefore the cpu_online_map can change unexpectedly.
So use the call_lock to protect against changes to the cpu_online_map
in start_secondary() and all smp_call_* functions.

0b18d318b8 [S390] smp: Fix locking order.
On some smp sysfs store attributes get_online_cpus() may block on
cpu_hotplug.lock, but we hold already smp_cpu_state_mutex. Since the
locking order on cpu hotplug via arch_update_cpu_topology is inverse
this might lead to deadlocks.
So make sure locking order is always the same.

a806170e29 [S390] Fix a lot of sparse warnings.
Most noteable part of this commit is the new local header file entry.h
which contains all the function declarations of functions that get only
called from asm code or are arch internal. That way we can avoid extern
declarations in C files.
This is more or less the same that was done for sparc64.

43ca5c3a1c [S390] Convert monitor calls to function calls.
Remove the program check generating monitor calls and use function
calls instead. Theres is no real advantage in using monitor calls,
but they do make debugging harder, because of all the program checks
it generates.

c10fde0d9e [S390] Vertical cpu management.
If vertical cpu polarization is active then the hypervisor will
dispatch certain cpus for a longer time than other cpus for maximum
performance. For example if a guest would have three virtual cpus,
each of them with a share of 33 percent, then in case of vertical
cpu polarization all of the processing time would be combined to a
single cpu which would run all the time, while the other two cpus
would get nearly no cpu time.

There are three different types of vertical cpus: high, medium and
low. Low cpus hardly get any real cpu time, while high cpus get a
full real cpu. Medium cpus get something in between.

In order to switch between the two possible modes (default is
horizontal) a 0 for horizontal polarization or a 1 for vertical
polarization must be written to the dispatching sysfs attribute:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/dispatching

The polarization of each single cpu can be figured out by the
polarization sysfs attribute of each cpu:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/polarization

horizontal, vertical:high, vertical:medium, vertical:low or unknown.

When switching polarization the polarization attribute may contain
the value unknown until the configuration change is done and the
kernel has figured out the new polarization of each cpu.

Note that running a system with different types of vertical cpus may
result in significant performance regressions. If possible only one
type of vertical cpus should be used. All other cpus should be
offlined.

98c7b388af [S390] Get rid of memcpy gcc warning workaround.
Compile smp.o with -Wno-nonnull so gcc stops warning about memcpy
being used with a null parameter. Also remove the workaround code
and use a char * cast instead of a void * cast to do computations.
