  • KVM on s390 always had a sync mmu. Any mapping change in userspace
    mapping was always reflected immediately in the guest mapping.
    - In older code the guest mapping was just an offset
    - In newer code the last level page table is shared

  • There is a potential host deadlock in the tprot intercept handling.
    We must not hold the mmap semaphore while resolving the guest
    address. If userspace is remapping, then the memory detection in
    the guest is broken anyway so we can safely separate the
    address translation from walking the vmas.

  • SIGP sense running may cause an intercept on higher level
    virtualization, so handle it by checking the CPUSTAT_RUNNING flag.

  • CPUSTAT_RUNNING was implemented signifying that a vcpu is not stopped.
    This is not, however, what the architecture says: RUNNING should be
    set when the host is acting on the behalf of the guest operating
    system.

    CPUSTAT_RUNNING has been changed to be set in kvm_arch_vcpu_load()
    and to be unset in kvm_arch_vcpu_put().

    For signifying stopped state of a vcpu, a host-controlled bit has
    been used and is set/unset basically on the reverse as the old
    CPUSTAT_RUNNING bit (including pushing it down into stop handling
    proper in handle_stop()).

  • s390 didn't return 0 in that case, if it's rolling back the *nr pointer it
    should also return zero to avoid adding pages to the array at the wrong

    This updates the code directly to the thp mapcount tail page refcounting.

  • Fix several compile errors on s390 caused by splitting module.h.

    Some include additions [e.g. qdio_setup.c, zfcp_qdio.c] are in
    anticipation of pending changes queued for s390 that increase
    the modular use footprint.

    [PG: added additional obvious changes since Heiko's original patch]
