Hi all, this patch series enables Linux on System z (s390x) and adds support for the CPU-measurement counter facility (cpum_cf) that is available since IBM System z10 mainframe systems. The CPU-measurement counter facility provides basic counters for cycles, instructions, and also crypto-activity counters. An extended counter set provides machine-dependent counters for TLB and cache operations.
The kernel backend to manage these counters is available since v3.4 with commit ID 212188a596d17d519842ef2173150315735b54e1. Please have a look at the patches. Review feedback is very welcome.
