-s390_guarded_storage \- operations with z/Architecture guarded storage facility
-.SH LIBRARY

-.BR "#include <sys/syscall.h>         " \

-.P
-.IR Note :
-glibc provides no wrapper for
-.BR s390_guarded_storage (),
-necessitating the use of
-.BR syscall (2).
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.BR s390_guarded_storage ()
-system call enables the use of the Guarded Storage Facility
-(a z/Architecture-specific feature) for user-space processes.
-.P
-.\" The description is based on
-.\" http://www-05.ibm.com/de/linux-on-z-ws-us/agenda/pdfs/8_-_Linux_Whats_New_-_Stefan_Raspl.pdf
-.\" and "z/Architecture Principles of Operation" obtained from
-.\" http://publibfi.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/dz9zr011.pdf
-The guarded storage facility is a hardware feature that allows marking up to
-64 memory regions (as of z14) as guarded;
-reading a pointer with a newly introduced "Load Guarded" (LGG)
-or "Load Logical and Shift Guarded" (LLGFSG) instructions will cause
-a range check on the loaded value and invoke a (previously set up)
-user-space handler if one of the guarded regions is affected.
-.P
-The
-.\" The command description is copied from v4.12-rc1~139^2~56^2 commit message
-.I command
-argument indicates which function to perform.
-The following commands are supported:
-.TP
-.B GS_ENABLE
-Enable the guarded storage facility for the calling task.
-The initial content of the guarded storage control block will be all zeros.
-After enablement, user-space code can use the "Load Guarded Storage
-Controls" (LGSC) instruction (or the
-.BR load_gs_cb ()
-function wrapper provided in the
-.I asm/guarded_storage.h
-header) to load an arbitrary control block.
-While a task is enabled, the kernel will save and restore the calling content
-of the guarded storage registers on context switch.
-.TP
-.B GS_DISABLE
-Disables the use of the guarded storage facility for the calling task.
-The kernel will cease to save and restore the content of the guarded storage
-registers, the task-specific content of these registers is lost.
-.TP
-.B GS_SET_BC_CB
-Set a broadcast guarded storage control block to the one provided in the
-.I gs_cb
-argument.
-This is called per thread and associates a specific guarded storage control
-block with the calling task.
-This control block will be used in the broadcast command
-.BR GS_BROADCAST .
-.TP
-.B GS_CLEAR_BC_CB
-Clears the broadcast guarded storage control block.
-The guarded storage control block will no longer have the association
-established by the
-.B GS_SET_BC_CB
-command.
-.TP
-.B GS_BROADCAST
-Sends a broadcast to all thread siblings of the calling task.
-Every sibling that has established a broadcast guarded storage control block
-will load this control block and will be enabled for guarded storage.
-The broadcast guarded storage control block is consumed; a second broadcast
-without a refresh of the stored control block with
-.B GS_SET_BC_CB
-will not have any effect.
-.P
-The
-.I gs_cb
-argument specifies the address of a guarded storage control block structure
-and is currently used only by the
-.B GS_SET_BC_CB
-command; all other aforementioned commands ignore this argument.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-On success, the return value of
-.BR s390_guarded_storage ()
-is 0.
-.P
-On error, \-1 is returned, and
-.I errno
-is set to indicate the error.
-.SH ERRORS
-.TP
-.B EFAULT
-.I command
-was
-.B GS_SET_BC_CB
-and the copying of the guarded storage control block structure pointed by the
-.I gs_cb
-argument has failed.
-.TP
-.B EINVAL
-The value provided in the
-.I command
-argument was not valid.
-.TP
-.B ENOMEM
-.I command
-was one of
-.BR GS_ENABLE " or " GS_SET_BC_CB ,
-and the allocation of a new guarded storage control block has failed.
-.TP
-.B EOPNOTSUPP
-The guarded storage facility is not supported by the hardware.
-.SH STANDARDS
-Linux on s390.
-.SH HISTORY
-.\" 916cda1aa1b412d7cf2991c3af7479544942d121, v4.12-rc1~139^2~56^2
-Linux 4.12.
-System z14.
-.SH NOTES
-The description of the guarded storage facility along with related
-instructions and Guarded Storage Control Block and
-Guarded Storage Event Parameter List structure layouts
-is available in "z/Architecture Principles of Operations"
-beginning from the twelfth edition.
-.P
-The
-.I gs_cb
-structure has a field
-.I gsepla
-(Guarded Storage Event Parameter List Address), which is a user-space pointer
-to a Guarded Storage Event Parameter List structure
-(that contains the address
-of the aforementioned event handler in the
-.I gseha
-field), and its layout is available as a
-.B gs_epl
-structure type definition in the
-.I asm/guarded_storage.h
-header.
