From cd4386a931b6310b05559d2e28efda04d30ab593 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heiko Carstens Date: Mon, 7 Aug 2017 15:16:15 +0200 Subject: s390/cpcmd,vmcp: avoid GFP_DMA allocations According to the CP Programming Services manual Diagnose Code 8 "Virtual Console Function" can be used in all addressing modes. Also the input and output buffers do not have a limitation which specifies they need to be below the 2GB line. This is true at least since z/VM 5.4. Therefore remove the sam31/64 instructions and allow for simple GFP_KERNEL allocations. This makes it easier to allocate a 1MB page if the user requested such a large return buffer.
