Add a function to check if a device is accessible.
This makes mostly sense for copy pair secondary devices but it will work
for all devices.
The sysfs attribute ping is a write only attribute and will issue a NOP
CCW to the device.
In case of success it will return zero. If the device is not accessible
it will return an error code.

A copy relation that is configured on the storage server side needs to be
enabled separately in the device driver. A sysfs interface is created
that allows userspace tooling to control such setup.
The following sysfs entries are added to store and read copy relation
information:
copy_pair
- Add/Delete a copy pair relation to the DASD device driver
- Query all previously added copy pair relations
copy_role
- Query the copy pair role of the device
To add a copy pair to the DASD device driver it has to be specified
through the sysfs attribute copy_pair. Only one secondary device can be
specified at a time together with the primary device. Both, secondary
and primary can be used equally to define the copy pair.
The secondary devices have to be offline when adding the copy relation.
The primary device needs to be specified first followed by the comma
separated secondary device.
Read from the copy_pair attribute to get the current setup and write
"clear" to the attribute to delete any existing setup.
Example:
$ echo 0.0.9700,0.0.9740 > /sys/bus/ccw/devices/0.0.9700/copy_pair
$ cat /sys/bus/ccw/devices/0.0.9700/copy_pair
0.0.9700,0.0.9740
During device online processing the required data will be read from the
storage server and the information will be compared to the setup
requested through the copy_pair attribute. The registration of the
primary and secondary device will be handled accordingly.
A blockdevice is only allocated for copy relation primary devices.
To query the copy role of a device read from the copy_role sysfs
attribute. Possible values are primary, secondary, and none.
Example:
$ cat /sys/bus/ccw/devices/0.0.9700/copy_role
primary

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

The storage server issues three different types of out-of-space messages
whenever the Extent Pool or Extent Repository space runs short. When a
configured warning watermark is reached, the physical space is
completeley exhausted, or the capacity constraints have been relieved, a
message is received.
A log entry for the sysadmin to react to is generated in any case. In
case the physical space is completely exhausted, sense data that reads
"no space left on device" is received. In this case, currently running
I/O will be blocked until space has either been released or added to the
extent pool, and a relieve message was received via an attention
interrupt.

Userspace tools might have the need to release space for Extent Space
Efficient (ESE) volumes when working with such a device.
Provide the necessarry interface for such a task by implementing a new
ioctl BIODASDRAS. The ioctl uses the format_data_t data structure for
data input:
typedef struct format_data_t {
unsigned int start_unit; /* from track */
unsigned int stop_unit; /* to track */
unsigned int blksize; /* sectorsize */
unsigned int intensity;
} format_data_t;
If the intensity is set to 0x40, start_unit and stop_unit are ignored
and space for the entire volume is released. Otherwise, if intensity is
set to 0, the respective range is released (if possible).

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

We already have define_extent() that prepares necessary data for the
Define Extent CCW. The exact same thing is done in prefix_LRE().
Remove the duplicate code and move commands that were only used in
combination with the Prefix command to define_extent(). One of these
commands needs the blocksize to be specified. Add the blksize parameter
to define_extent() to account for that.
In addition, the check_XRC() function can be made more generic. Do this
and remove the Prefix-specific check_XRC_on_prefix() function.
Furthermore, prefix_LRE() uses fill_LRE_data() to prepare Locate Record
Extended data. Rename the function to fit the scheme better and make it
usable outside of the Prefix context by adding the corresponding CCW
command.

Reorder lcu and device lock to get rid of the error-prone trylock
mechanism.
The locking order is lcu lock -> device lock.
This protects against changes to the lcu device lists and enables us
to iterate over the devices, take the cdev lock and make changes to
the device structures.
The complicated part is the summary unit check handler that gets an
interrupt on one device of the lcu that leads to structural changes of
the whole lcu itself. This work needs to be done even if devices on
the lcu disappear. So a device independent worker is used.
The old approach tried to update some lcu structures and set up the
lcu worker in the interrupt context with the device lock held.
But this forced the lock order "cdev lock -> lcu lock" that made it
hard to have the lcu lock held and iterate over all devices and change
them.
The new approach is to schedule a device specific worker that gets
out of the interrupt context and rid of the device lock for summary
unit checks. This worker is able to take the lcu lock and schedule the
lcu worker that updates all devices. The time between interrupt and
worker execution is no problem because the devices in the lcu reject
all I/O in this time with an appropriate error. The dasd driver can
deal with this situation and re-drive the I/O later on.

to start multiple channel programs on the same DASD in parallel. It
defines alias devices which can be used as alternative paths to the
same disk. With the old base PAV support we only needed rudimentary
functionality in the DASD device driver. As the mapping between base
and alias devices was static, we just had to export an identifier
(uid) and could leave the combining of devices to external layers
like a device mapper multipath.
Now hyper PAV removes the requirement to dedicate alias devices to
specific base devices. Instead each alias devices can be combined with
multiple base device on a per request basis. This requires full
support by the DASD device driver as now each channel program itself
has to identify the target base device.
The changes to the dasd device driver and the ECKD discipline are:
- Separate subchannel device representation (dasd_device) from block
device representation (dasd_block). Only base devices are block
devices.
- Gather information about base and alias devices and possible
combinations.
- For each request decide which dasd_device should be used (base or
alias) and build specific channel program.
- Support summary unit checks, which allow the storage server to
upgrade / downgrade between base and hyper PAV at runtime (support
is mandatory).

Add support for parallel-access-volumes to the dasd driver. This
allows concurrent access to dasd devices with multiple channel
programs.

Dasd code cleanup: 1) remove white space, 2) remove the emacs override
sections, and 3) use kzalloc instead of kmalloc.

Generate new sysfs-attribute 'uid' that contains an device specific unique
identifier. This can be used to identity multiple ALIASES of the same
physical device (PAV). In addition the sysfs-attributes 'vendor' (containing
the manufacturer of the device) and 'alias' (identify alias or base device) is
added. This is first part of PAV support in LPAR (also valid on zVM).

The DASD extended error reporting is a facility that allows to get detailed
information about certain problems in the DASD I/O. This information can be
used to implement fail-over applications that can recover these problems.

- Remove all CVS generated information like e.g. revision IDs from
drivers/s390 and include/asm-s390 (none present in arch/s390).
- Add newline at end of arch/s390/lib/Makefile to avoid diff message.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
