[S390] kernel: show last breaking-event-address on oops
Newer s390 models have a breaking-event-address-recording register.
Each time an instruction causes a break in the sequential instruction
execution, the address is saved in that hardware register. On a program
interrupt the address is copied to the lowcore address 272-279, which
makes it software accessible.
This patch changes the program check handler and the stack overflow
checker to copy the value into the pt_regs argument.
The oops output is enhanced to show the last known breaking address.
It might give additional information if the stack trace is corrupted.
[S390] lowcore: Change type of lowcores softirq_pending to __u32.

I generally dislike adding optional linux/* includes in asm/* includes -
I'm nervous about this causing include loops.
However, there's a separate point to be discussed here.
That is, what interfaces are expected of every architecture in the kernel.
If generic code wants to be able to set the affinity of interrupts, then
that needs to become part of the interfaces listed in linux/interrupt.h
rather than linux/irq.h.
So what I suggest is this approach instead (against Linus' tree of a
couple of days ago) - we move irq_set_affinity() and irq_can_set_affinity()
to linux/interrupt.h, change the linux/irq.h includes to linux/interrupt.h
and include asm/irq_regs.h where needed (asm/irq_regs.h is supposed to be
rarely used include since not much touches the stacked parent context
registers.)

kernels which both use genirq.

If vertical cpu polarization is active then the hypervisor will
dispatch certain cpus for a longer time than other cpus for maximum
performance. For example if a guest would have three virtual cpus,
each of them with a share of 33 percent, then in case of vertical
cpu polarization all of the processing time would be combined to a
single cpu which would run all the time, while the other two cpus
would get nearly no cpu time.
There are three different types of vertical cpus: high, medium and
low. Low cpus hardly get any real cpu time, while high cpus get a
full real cpu. Medium cpus get something in between.
In order to switch between the two possible modes (default is
horizontal) a 0 for horizontal polarization or a 1 for vertical
polarization must be written to the dispatching sysfs attribute:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/dispatching
The polarization of each single cpu can be figured out by the
polarization sysfs attribute of each cpu:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/polarization
horizontal, vertical:high, vertical:medium, vertical:low or unknown.
When switching polarization the polarization attribute may contain
the value unknown until the configuration change is done and the
kernel has figured out the new polarization of each cpu.
Note that running a system with different types of vertical cpus may
result in significant performance regressions. If possible only one
type of vertical cpus should be used. All other cpus should be
offlined.

Make sure common indicator field is reset only, if all FCP-devices

[S390] cio: Trigger verification on device/path not operational.
Currently, we don't do much on no path or no device situations during
normal user I/O, since we rely on reports regarding those events by
the machine. If we trigger a path verification to bring our device
state up-to-date, we (a) may recover from path failures earlier and
(b) better handle situations where the hardware/hypervisor doesn't
give us enough notifications.
[S390] dasd: fix double elevator_exit call when deadline iosched fails to load
I compiled the kernel without deadline, and the dasd code exits the old
scheduler (CFQ), fails to load the new one (deadline), and then things just
hang - with one of these (sorry about the weird chars - I copy & pasted it
from a 3270 console):
Set elevator pointer to NULL in order to avoid double elevator_exit
calls when elevator_init call for deadline iosched fails.
Also make sure the dasd device driver depends on IOSCHED_DEADLINE so
the default IO scheduler of the dasd driver is present.

IPoIB: Handle case when P_Key is deleted and re-added at same index
If a P_Key is deleted and then re-added at the same index, then IPoIB
gets confused because __ipoib_ib_dev_flush() only checks whether the
index is the same without checking whether the P_Key was present, so
the interface is stopped when the P_Key is deleted, but the event when
the P_Key is re-added gets ignored and the interface never gets
restarted.
Also, switch to using ib_find_pkey() instead of ib_find_cached_pkey()
everywhere in IPoIB, since none of the places that look for P_Keys are
in a fast path or in non-sleeping context, and in general we want to
kill off the whole caching infrastructure eventually. This also fixes
consistency problems caused because some IPoIB queries were cached and
some were uncached during the window where the cache was not updated.
Thanks to Venkata Subramonyam <vsubramo@cisco.com> for debugging this
problem and testing this fix.

IB/mlx4: Fix race when detaching a QP from a multicast group
When detaching the last QP from an MCG entry, we need to make
sure that at any time, there will be no entry with zero number of
QPs which is linked to the list of the MCGs of the corresponding
hash index. So don't write back the MCG entry if we are removing the
last QP; just unlink the entry.
Also, remove an unnecessary MCG read when attaching a QP requires
allocation of a new entry in the AMGM.

IPoIB: Support modifying IPoIB CQ event moderation
This can be used to tune at run time the parameters controlling the
event (interrupt) generation rate and thus reduce the overhead
incurred by handling interrupts resulting in better throughput. Since
IPoIB uses a single CQ for both RX and TX, RX is chosen to dictate
configuration for both RX and TX.

IB/core: Add support for "send with invalidate" work requests
Add a new IB_WR_SEND_WITH_INV send opcode that can be used to mark a
"send with invalidate" work request as defined in the iWARP verbs and
the InfiniBand base memory management extensions. Also put "imm_data"
and a new "invalidate_rkey" member in a new "ex" union in struct
ib_send_wr. The invalidate_rkey member can be used to pass in an
R_Key/STag to be invalidated. Add this new union to struct
ib_uverbs_send_wr. Add code to copy the invalidate_rkey field in
ib_uverbs_post_send().
Fix up low-level drivers to deal with the change to struct ib_send_wr,
and just remove the imm_data initialization from net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/,
since that code never does any send with immediate operations.
Also, move the existing IB_DEVICE_SEND_W_INV flag to a new bit, since
the iWARP drivers currently in the tree set the bit. The amso1100
driver at least will silently fail to honor the IB_SEND_INVALIDATE bit
if passed in as part of userspace send requests (since it does not
implement kernel bypass work request queueing). Remove the flag from
all existing drivers that set it until we know which ones are OK.
The values chosen for the new flag is not consecutive to avoid clashing
with flags defined in the XRC patches, which are not merged yet but
which are already in use and are likely to be merged soon.
This resurrects a patch sent long ago by Mikkel Hagen <mhagen@iol.unh.edu>.
