- Add machine variable capacity information to /proc/sysinfo.
- Limit the waste of page tables and always align vmalloc area size
and base address on segment boundary.
- Fix a memory leak when an attempt to register interruption sub class
(ISC) for the adjunct-processor (AP) guest failed.
- Reset response code AP_RESPONSE_INVALID_GISA to understandable
by guest AP_RESPONSE_INVALID_ADDRESS in response to a failed
interruption sub class (ISC) registration attempt.
- Improve reaction to adjunct-processor (AP) AP_RESPONSE_OTHERWISE_CHANGED
response code when enabling interrupts on behalf of a guest.
- Fix incorrect sysfs 'status' attribute of adjunct-processor (AP) queue
device bound to the vfio_ap device driver when the mediated device is
attached to a guest, but the queue device is not passed through.
- Rework struct ap_card to hold the whole adjunct-processor (AP) card
hardware information. As result, all the ugly bit checks are replaced
by simple evaluations of the required bit fields.
- Improve handling of some weird scenarios between service element (SE)
host and SE guest with adjunct-processor (AP) pass-through support.
- Change local_ctl_set_bit() and local_ctl_clear_bit() so they return the
previous value of the to be changed control register. This is useful if
a bit is only changed temporarily and the previous content needs to be
restored.
- The kernel starts with machine checks disabled and is expected to enable
it once trap_init() is called. However the implementation allows machine
checks early. Consistently enable it in trap_init() only.
- local_mcck_disable() and local_mcck_enable() assume that machine checks
are always enabled. Instead implement and use local_mcck_save() and
local_mcck_restore() to disable machine checks and restore the previous
state.
- Modification of floating point control (FPC) register of a traced
process using ptrace interface may lead to corruption of the FPC
register of the tracing process. Fix this.
- kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_fpu() allows to set the floating point control
(FPC) register in vCPU, but may lead to corruption of the FPC register
of the host process. Fix this.
- Use READ_ONCE() to read a vCPU floating point register value from the
memory mapped area. This avoids that, depending on code generation,
a different value is tested for validity than the one that is used.
- Get rid of test_fp_ctl(), since it is quite subtle to use it correctly.
Instead copy a new floating point control register value into its save
area and test the validity of the new value when loading it.
- Remove superfluous save_fpu_regs() call.
- Remove s390 support for ARCH_WANTS_DYNAMIC_TASK_STRUCT. All machines
provide the vector facility since many years and the need to make the
task structure size dependent on the vector facility does not exist.
- Remove the "novx" kernel command line option, as the vector code runs
without any problems since many years.
- Add the vector facility to the z13 architecture level set (ALS).
All hypervisors support the vector facility since many years.
This allows compile time optimizations of the kernel.
- Get rid of MACHINE_HAS_VX and replace it with cpu_has_vx(). As result,
the compiled code will have less runtime checks and less code.
- Convert pgste_get_lock() and pgste_set_unlock() ASM inlines to C.
- Convert the struct subchannel spinlock from pointer to member.
