- 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.
