For base Parallel Access Volume (PAV) there is a fixed mapping of

A machine check can interrupt the i/o and external interrupt handler
anytime. If the machine check occurs while the interrupt handler is
waking up from idle vtime_start_cpu can get executed a second time
and the int_clock / async_enter_timer values in the lowcore get
clobbered. This can confuse the cpu time accounting.
To fix this problem two changes are needed. First the machine check
handler has to use its own copies of int_clock and async_enter_timer,
named mcck_clock and mcck_enter_timer. Second the nested execution
of vtime_start_cpu has to be prevented. This is done in s390_idle_check
by checking the wait bit in the program status word.Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

The various dasd_sleep_on functions use a global wait queue when
waiting for a cqr. The wait condition checks the status and devlist
fields of the cqr to determine if it is safe to continue. This
evaluation may return true, although the tasklet has not finished
processing of the cqr and the callback function has not been called
yet. When the callback is finally called, the data in the cqr may
already be invalid. The sleep_on wait condition needs a safe way to
determine if the tasklet has finished processing. Use the
callback_data field of the cqr to store a token, which is set by
the callback function itself.Cc:

[S390] zcore: Fix reipl device detection

[S390] cio: use exception-save stsch
[S390] add hook to reenable mss after hibernation

[S390] dasd: fix endless loop in erp -
The reipl device information is passed from the kernel to zfcpdump
using a pointer in the lowcore (0xe00) that points to the reipl
information Currently if that pointer is not zero, we copy the reipl
information. If the pointer is not initialized and points outside
the accessible memory, it can happen that the memory copy fails.
In that case we currently stop the initialization of zcore which leads
to a failing kernel dump. The correct behavior is to disable the reipl
after dump and continue with zcore intialization.Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu
