MIPS: smp.c: Fix uninitialised temp_foreign_map

2016-03-13T09:59:19Z

When calculate_cpu_foreign_map() recalculates the cpu_foreign_map cpumask it uses the local variable temp_foreign_map without initialising it to zero. Since the calculation only ever sets bits in this cpumask any existing bits at that memory location will remain set and find their way into cpu_foreign_map too. This could potentially lead to cache operations suboptimally doing smp calls to multiple VPEs in the same core, even though the VPEs share primary caches. Therefore initialise temp_foreign_map using cpumask_clear() before use.

MIPS: traps: Fix SIGFPE information leak from `do_ov' and `do_trap_or_bp'

2016-03-04T21:52:32Z

Avoid sending a partially initialised `siginfo_t' structure along SIGFPE signals issued from `do_ov' and `do_trap_or_bp', leading to information leaking from the kernel stack. Signed-off-by: Maciej W. Rozycki Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

MIPS: Avoid variant of .type unsupported by LLVM Assembler

2016-02-29T10:23:49Z

The target independent parts of the LLVM Lexer considers 'fault@function' to be a single token representing the 'fault' symbol with a 'function' modifier. However, this is not the case in the .type directive where 'function' refers to STT_FUNC from the ELF standard. Although GAS accepts it, '.type symbol@function' is an undocumented form of this directive. The documentation specifies a comma between the symbol and '@function'.

mips: Differentiate between 32 and 64 bit ELF header

2016-02-11T10:38:22Z

Depending on the configuration either the 32 or 64 bit version of elf_check_arch() is defined. parse_crash_elf{32|64}_headers() does some basic verification of the ELF header via vmcore_elf{32|64}_check_arch() which happen to map to elf_check_arch(). Since the implementation 32 and 64 bit version of elf_check_arch() differ, we use the wrong type: In file included from include/linux/elf.h:4:0, from fs/proc/vmcore.c:13: fs/proc/vmcore.c: In function 'parse_crash_elf64_headers': >> arch/mips/include/asm/elf.h:228:23: error: initialization from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types] struct elfhdr *__h = (hdr); \ ^ include/linux/crash_dump.h:41:37: note: in expansion of macro 'elf_check_arch' #define vmcore_elf64_check_arch(x) (elf_check_arch(x) || vmcore_elf_check_arch_cross(x)) ^ fs/proc/vmcore.c:1015:4: note: in expansion of macro 'vmcore_elf64_check_arch' !vmcore_elf64_check_arch(&ehdr) || ^ Therefore, we rather define vmcore_elf{32|64}_check_arch() as a basic machine check and use it also in binfm_elf?32.c as well.

MIPS: Fix early CM probing

2016-02-09T16:18:31Z

Commit c014d164f21d ("MIPS: Add platform callback before initializing the L2 cache") added a platform_early_l2_init function in order to allow platforms to probe for the CM before L2 initialisation is performed, so that CM GCRs are available to mips_sc_probe. That commit actually fails to do anything useful, since it checks mips_cm_revision to determine whether it should call mips_cm_probe but the result of mips_cm_revision will always be 0 until mips_cm_probe has been called. Thus the "early" mips_cm_probe call never occurs. Fix this & drop the useless weak platform_early_l2_init function by simply calling mips_cm_probe from setup_arch. For platforms that don't select CONFIG_MIPS_CM this will be a no-op, and for those that do it removes the requirement for them to call mips_cm_probe manually (although doing so isn't harmful for now).

MIPS: traps.c: Don't emulate RDHWR in the CpU #0 exception handler

2016-02-02T01:16:11Z

In the regular MIPS instruction set RDHWR is encoded with the SPECIAL3 (011111) major opcode. Therefore it cannot trigger the CpU (Coprocessor Unusable) exception, and certainly not for coprocessor 0, as the opcode does not overlap with any of the older ISA reservations, i.e. LWC0 (110000), SWC0 (111000), LDC0 (110100) or SDC0 (111100). The closest match might be SDC3 (111111), possibly causing a CpU #3 exception, however our code does not handle it anyway. A quick check with a MIPS I and a MIPS III processor: CPU0 revision is: 00000220 (R3000) CPU0 revision is: 00000440 (R4400SC) indeed indicates that the RI (Reserved Instruction) exception is triggered. It's only LL and SC that require emulation in the CpU #0 exception handler as they reuse the LWC0 and SWC0 opcodes respectively. In the microMIPS instruction set RDHWR is mandatory and triggering the RI exception is required on unimplemented or disabled register accesses. Therefore emulating the microMIPS instruction in the CpU #0 exception handler is not required either. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

MIPS: Properly disable FPU in start_thread()

2016-02-01T22:36:03Z

start_thread() (called for execve(2)) clears the TIF_USEDFPU flag without atomically disabling the FPU. With a preemptive kernel, an unfortunately timed preemption after this could result in another task (or KVM guest) being scheduled in with the FPU still enabled, since lose_fpu_inatomic() only turns it off if TIF_USEDFPU is set. Use lose_fpu(0) instead of the separate FPU / MSA management, which should do the right thing (drop FPU properly and atomically without saving state) and will be more future proof.
