partial_fixup is used in noreorder block. Separating two consecutive loads can save one cycle on processors with GPR intrelock and can fix load-use on processors that need a load delay slot. Also do so for fwd_fixup. [Ralf: Only R2000/R3000 class processors are lacking the the load-user interlock and even some of those got it retrofitted. With R2000/R3000 being fairly uncommon these days the impact of this bug should be minor.] Signed-off-by: Tony Wu <tung7970@gmail.com> To: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1768/Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

We were unconditionally sending SIGBUS with an empty siginfo on FP emulator faults. This differs from what happens when real floating point hardware would get a fault. For most faults we need to send SIGSEGV with the faulting address filled in in the struct siginfo.

TNETD7200 run their CPU clock faster than the default CPU clock we assume. In order to have the correct loops per jiffies settings, initialize clocks right before setting mips_hpt_frequency. As a side effect, we can no longer use msleep in clocks.c which requires other parts of the kernel to be initialized, so replace these with mdelay.

The return value of the vmalloc() call in arch/mips/kernel/vpe.c::vpe_open() is not checked, so we potentially store a null pointer in v->pbuffer. Add a check for a null return and then return -ENOMEM in that case. [Ralf: The check added by Jesper's original patch is where it logically should be. Adding it eleminated the need for the checks in a few other places, so I removed them. There still is a zillion of other things that need to be fixed in this file / API.] Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jj@chaosbits.net> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1747/Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

The high bits of current->personality carry settings that we don't want to clobber on each exec. Only clobber them if the lower bits that indicate either PER_LINUX or PER_LINUX32 are invalid.

We never needed that (->regs[2] is overwritten on return from syscall paths with return value of syscall, so storing it there early made no sense) and with new restart logics since d27240bf7e61d2656de18e158ec910a902030847 it has become really bad - we lose the original syscall number before the place where we decide that we might need a syscall restart. Note that for child we do need the assignment to regs[2] - it won't go through the normal return from syscall path.

The install_special_mapping routine (used, for example, to setup the vdso) skips the security check before insert_vm_struct, allowing a local attacker to bypass the mmap_min_addr security restriction by limiting the available pages for special mappings. bprm_mm_init() also skips the check, and although I don't think this can be used to bypass any restrictions, I don't see any reason not to have the security check. $ uname -m x86_64 $ cat /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr 65536 $ cat install_special_mapping.s section .bss resb BSS_SIZE section .text global _start _start: mov eax, __NR_pause int 0x80 $ nasm -D__NR_pause=29 -DBSS_SIZE=0xfffed000 -f elf -o install_special_mapping.o install_special_mapping.s $ ld -m elf_i386 -Ttext=0x10000 -Tbss=0x11000 -o install_special_mapping install_special_mapping.o $ ./install_special_mapping & [1] 14303 $ cat /proc/14303/maps 0000f000-00010000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] 00010000-00011000 r-xp 00001000 00:19 2453665 /home/taviso/install_special_mapping 00011000-ffffe000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] It's worth noting that Red Hat are shipping with mmap_min_addr set to 4096.

This gets caught by the new sanity check code. Instead of the slash use a different symbol. This was originally found by Major Lee who proposed a rather more complex patch which changed the name according to the chip type. On the basis that we are in a late -rc and making Linus grumpy isn't always a good idea (however fun) this is a simple alternative.

Cache ownership must be acquired by reading/writing data from the cache line to make cache operation have the desired effect on the SMP MPCore CPU. However, the ownership is never acquired in the v6_dma_inv_range function when cleaning the first line and flushing the last one, in case the address is not aligned to D_CACHE_LINE_SIZE boundary. Fix this by reading/writing data if needed, before performing cache operations. While at it, fix v6_dma_flush_range to prevent RWFO outside the buffer.

Dave Martin authored
Because the nwfpe support is unlikely to be used on new platforms and requires CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT, which is not generally used with ARMv7+, we shouldn't expect to build nwfpe support into a Thumb-2 kernel. At present, nwfpe contains assembly code which isn't Thumb-2 compatible, and for now it doesn't appear useful to port this code. All ARMv7-A/R platforms necessarily have VFPv3 hardware floating- point natively, making emulation unnecessary.

This makes sense, because Thumb-2 code can't execute on plain ARMv6 processors. This will avoid accidentally configuring a broken kernel where the config otherwise would allow multiple architecture versions to coexist in the same kernel. Not adding !CPU_V5 etc., because the chance of anyone trying to put v5 and v7 in the same kernel is low, and I'm not aware of any mach which can do this. These could be added later if it matters. Note that the rules may need to be refined if support for the ARM1156J(F)-S processor is later added to the kernel, since this processor supports the rare ARMv6T2 extensions, which add support for Thumb-2 and a few other ARMv7 features.
