      MIPS: Function tracer: Fix broken function tracing · 58b69401
      Al Cooper authored
      Function tracing is currently broken for all 32 bit MIPS platforms.
      When tracing is enabled, the kernel immediately hangs on boot.
      This is a result of commit b732d439
      that changes the kernel/trace/Kconfig file so that is no longer
      forces FRAME_POINTER when FUNCTION_TRACING is enabled.
      
      MIPS frame pointers are generally considered to be useless because
      they cannot be used to unwind the stack. Unfortunately the MIPS
      function tracing code has bugs that are masked by the use of frame
      pointers. This commit fixes the bugs so that MIPS frame pointers
      don't need to be enabled.
      
      The bugs are a result of the odd calling sequence used to call the trace
      routine. This calling sequence is inserted into every traceable function
      when the tracing CONFIG option is enabled. This sequence is generated
      for 32bit MIPS platforms by the compiler via the "-pg" flag.
      
      Part of the sequence is "addiu sp,sp,-8" in the delay slot after every
      call to the trace routine "_mcount" (some legacy thing where 2 arguments
      used to be pushed on the stack). The _mcount routine is expected to
      adjust the sp by +8 before returning.  So when not disabled, the original
      jalr and addiu will be there, so _mcount has to adjust sp.
      
      The problem is that when tracing is disabled for a function, the
      "jalr _mcount" instruction is replaced with a nop, but the
      "addiu sp,sp,-8" is still executed and the stack pointer is left
      trashed. When frame pointers are enabled the problem is masked
      because any access to the stack is done through the frame
      pointer and the stack pointer is restored from the frame pointer when
      the function returns.
      
      This patch writes two nops starting at the address of the "jalr _mcount"
      instruction whenever tracing is disabled. This means that the
      "addiu sp,sp.-8" will be converted to a nop along with the "jalr".  When
      disabled, there will be two nops.
      
      This is SMP safe because the first time this happens is during
      ftrace_init() which is before any other processor has been started.
      Subsequent calls to enable/disable tracing when other CPUs ARE running
      will still be safe because the enable will only change the first nop
      to a "jalr" and the disable, while writing 2 nops, will only be changing
      the "jalr". This patch also stops using stop_machine() to call the
      tracer enable/disable routines and calls them directly because the
      routines are SMP safe.
      
      When the kernel first boots we have to be able to handle the gcc
      generated jalr, addui sequence until ftrace_init gets a chance to run
      and change the sequence. At this point mcount just adjusts the stack
      and returns. When ftrace_init runs, we convert the jalr/addui to nops.
      Then whenever tracing is enabled we convert the first nop to a "jalr
      mcount+8". The mcount+8 entry point skips the stack adjust.

      mips: Move __virt_addr_valid() to a place for MIPS 64 · 196897a2
      Steven Rostedt authored
      Commit d3ce8843 "MIPS: Fix modpost error in modules attepting to use
      virt_addr_valid()" moved __virt_addr_valid() from a macro in a header
      file to a function in ioremap.c. But ioremap.c is only compiled for MIPS
      32, and not for MIPS 64.
      
      When compiling for my yeeloong2, which supposedly supports hibernation,
      which compiles kernel/power/snapshot.c which calls virt_addr_valid(), I
      got this error:
      
        LD      init/built-in.o
      kernel/built-in.o: In function `memory_bm_free':
      snapshot.c:(.text+0x4c9c4): undefined reference to `__virt_addr_valid'
      snapshot.c:(.text+0x4ca58): undefined reference to `__virt_addr_valid'
      kernel/built-in.o: In function `snapshot_write_next':
      (.text+0x4e44c): undefined reference to `__virt_addr_valid'
      kernel/built-in.o: In function `snapshot_write_next':
      (.text+0x4e890): undefined reference to `__virt_addr_valid'
      make[1]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
      make: *** [sub-make] Error 2
      
      I suspect that __virt_addr_valid() is fine for mips 64. I moved it to
      mmap.c such that it gets compiled for mips 64 and 32.

             __init annotation fixes and some error handling improvement in
             their xor dma driver.
         - i.MX had a couple of minor fixes (and a critical one for flexcan2
           clock setup)
         - MXS has a small board fix and a framebuffer bugfix
         - A set of fixes for Samsung Exynos, fixing default bootargs and some
           Exynos5440 clock issues
         - A set of OMAP changes including PM fixes and a few sparse warning
           fixups
      
        All in all a bit more positive code delta than we'd ideally want to
        see here, mostly from the OMAP PM changes, but nothing overly crazy."
