s390/dumpstack: merge all four stack tracers

2016-02-23T07:56:20+00:00

We have four different stack tracers of which three had bugs. So it's time to merge them to a single stack tracer which allows to specify a call back function which will be called for each step. This patch changes behavior a bit: - the "nosched" and "in_sched_functions" check within save_stack_trace_tsk did work only for the last stack frame within a context. Now it considers the check for each stack frame like it should. - both the oprofile variant and the perf_events variant did save a return address twice if a zero back chain was detected, which indicates an interrupt frame. The new dump_trace function will call the oprofile and perf_events backends with the psw address that is contained within the corresponding pt_regs structure instead. - the original show_trace and save_context_stack functions did already use the psw address of the pt_regs structure if a zero back chain was detected. However now we ignore the psw address if it is a user space address. After all we trace the kernel stack and not the user space stack. This way we also get rid of the garbage user space address in case of warnings and / or panic call traces. So this should make life easier since now there is only one stack tracer left which we can break. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390/oprofile: fix address range for asynchronous stack

2016-02-10T08:25:22+00:00

git commit dc7ee00d4771 ("s390: lowcore stack pointer offsets") introduced a regression in regard to s390_backtrace(). The stack pointer for the asynchronous stack in the lowcore now has an additional offset applied. This offset needs to be taken into account in the calculation for the low and high address for the stack. This bug was already partially fixed with commit 9cc5c206d9b4 ("s390/dumpstack: fix address ranges for asynchronous and panic stack"). This patch fixes it also for the oprofile code.

s390: remove all usages of PSW_ADDR_INSN

2016-01-19T11:14:03+00:00

Yet another leftover from the 31 bit era. The usual operation "y = x & PSW_ADDR_INSN" with the PSW_ADDR_INSN mask is a nop for CONFIG_64BIT. Therefore remove all usages and hope the code is a bit less confusing. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Reviewed-by: David Hildenbrand

s390: make use of user_mode() macro where possible

2012-07-30T09:03:12+00:00

We use the user_mode() helper already at several places but also have the open coded variant at other places. Convert the code to always use the helper function. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390/comments: unify copyright messages and remove file names

2012-07-20T09:15:04+00:00

Remove the file name from the comment at top of many files. In most cases the file name was wrong anyway, so it's rather pointless. Also unify the IBM copyright statement. We did have a lot of sightly different statements and wanted to change them one after another whenever a file gets touched. However that never happened. Instead people start to take the old/"wrong" statements to use as a template for new files. So unify all of them in one go. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens
