Merge tag 's390-5.3-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux
Pull s390 updates from Vasily Gorbik:
- Improve stop_machine wait logic: replace cpu_relax_yield call in
generic stop_machine function with a weak stop_machine_yield
function. This is overridden on s390, which yields the current cpu to
the neighbouring cpu after a couple of retries, instead of blindly
giving up the cpu to the hipervisor. This significantly improves
stop_machine performance on s390 in overcommitted scenarios.
This includes common code changes which have been Acked by Peter
Zijlstra and Thomas Gleixner.
- Improve jump label transformation speed: transform jump labels
without using stop_machine.
- Refactoring of the vfio-ccw cp handling, simplifying the code and
avoiding unneeded allocating/copying.
- Various vfio-ccw fixes (ccw translation, state machine).
- Add support for vfio-ap queue interrupt control in the guest. This
includes s390 kvm changes which have been Acked by Christian
Borntraeger.
- Add protected virtualization support for virtio-ccw.
- Enforce both CONFIG_SMP and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU, which allows to
remove some code which most likely isn't working at all, besides that
s390 didn't even compile for !CONFIG_SMP.
- Support for special flagged EP11 CPRBs for zcrypt.
- Handle PCI devices with no support for new MIO instructions.
- Avoid KASAN false positives in reworked stack unwinder.
- Couple of fixes for the QDIO layer.
- Convert s390 specific documentation to ReST format.
- Let s390 crypto modules return -ENODEV instead of -EOPNOTSUPP if
hardware is missing. This way our modules behave like most other
modules and which is also what systemd's systemd-modules-load.service
expects.
- Replace defconfig with performance_defconfig, so there is one config
file less to maintain.
- Remove the SCLP call home device driver, which was never useful.
- Cleanups all over the place.

When + specified, only a driver with a name matching the value written + to driver_override will have an opportunity to bind to the + device. The override is specified by writing a string to the + driver_override file (echo vfio-ccw > driver_override) and + may be cleared with an empty string (echo > driver_override). + This returns the device to standard matching rules binding. + Writing to driver_override does not automatically unbind the + device from its current driver or make any attempt to + automatically load the specified driver. If no driver with a + matching name is currently loaded in the kernel, the device + will not bind to any driver. This also allows devices to + opt-out of driver binding using a driver_override name such as + "none". Only a single driver may be specified in the override, + there is no support for parsing delimiters. + Note that unlike the mechanism of the same name for pci, this + file does not allow to override basic matching rules. I.e., + the driver must still match the subchannel type of the device. |
