2017-12-05	s390: add a few more SPDX identifiers	Martin Schwidefsky	1	-0/+1
	Add the correct SPDX license to a few more files under arch/s390 and drivers/s390 which have been missed to far. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2017-11-14	s390: enable CPU alternatives unconditionally	Heiko Carstens	1	-17/+3
	Remove the CPU_ALTERNATIVES config option and enable the code unconditionally. The config option was only added to avoid a conflict with the named saved segment support. Since that code is gone there is no reason to keep the CPU_ALTERNATIVES config option. Just enable it unconditionally to also reduce the number of config options and make it less likely that something breaks. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>
2017-10-18	s390: introduce CPU alternatives	Vasily Gorbik	1	-0/+163
	Implement CPU alternatives, which allows to optionally patch newer instructions at runtime, based on CPU facilities availability. A new kernel boot parameter "noaltinstr" disables patching. Current implementation is derived from x86 alternatives. Although ideal instructions padding (when altinstr is longer then oldinstr) is added at compile time, and no oldinstr nops optimization has to be done at runtime. Also couple of compile time sanity checks are done: 1. oldinstr and altinstr must be <= 254 bytes long, 2. oldinstr and altinstr must not have an odd length. alternative(oldinstr, altinstr, facility); alternative_2(oldinstr, altinstr1, facility1, altinstr2, facility2); Both compile time and runtime padding consists of either 6/4/2 bytes nop or a jump (brcl) + 2 bytes nop filler if padding is longer then 6 bytes. .altinstructions and .altinstr_replacement sections are part of __init_begin : __init_end region and are freed after initialization.
