Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Archive: List-Post: To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, linux-s390@vger.kernel.org List-ID: Greetings, two weeks ago System z10 has been announced. This patchset adds support for some of the new features of this machine. The two main features are large page support (1MB pages) and cpu topology supporty. There are some common code dependencies for these two, see patches #3, #4, #5, #8 and #9. Most notably we found that we need to add a new tlb flush for the copy-on-write of a large page (patch #8). We think that this is a bug, but obviously one that hasn't shown up so far on any of the other large page architectures. The patches are queued in the features/for-andrew branches of git390 and will be included linux-next and -mm (keeping fingers crossed that we don't create any rejects). -- blue skies, Martin.
