This is done by improving the laddering logic ! Before: if Exception goto excep_or_pure_k_ret if !Interrupt(L2) goto l1_chk else INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE 2 l1_chk: if !Interrupt(L1) (i.e. pure kernel mode) goto excep_or_pure_k_ret else INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE 1 excep_or_pure_k_ret: EXCEPTION_EPILOGUE Now: if !Interrupt(L1 or L2) (i.e. exception or pure kernel mode) goto excep_or_pure_k_ret ; guaranteed to be an interrupt if !Interrupt(L2) goto l1_ret else INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE 2 ; by virtue of above, no need to chk for L1 active l1_ret: INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE 1 excep_or_pure_k_ret: EXCEPTION_EPILOGUE Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

The requirement is to - Reenable Exceptions (AE cleared) - Reenable Interrupts (E1/E2 set) We need to do wiggle these bits into ERSTATUS and call RTIE. Prev version used the pre-exception STATUS32 as starting point for what goes into ERSTATUS. This required explicit fixups of U/DE/L bits. Instead, use the current (in-exception) STATUS32 as starting point. Being in exception handler U/DE/L can be safely assumed to be correct. Only AE/E1/E2 need to be fixed. So the new implementation is slightly better -Avoids read form memory -Is 4 bytes smaller for the typical 1 level of intr configuration -Depicts the semantics more clearly Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

Historically this was done by ARC IDE driver, which is long gone. IRQ core is pretty robust now and already checks if IRQs are enabled in hard ISRs. Thus no point in checking this in arch code, for every call of irq enabled. Further if some driver does do that - let it bring down the system so we notice/fix this sooner than covering up for sucker This makes local_irq_enable() - for L1 only case atleast simple enough so we can inline it.

Implement the TLB flush routine to evict a sepcific Super TLB entry, vs. moving to a new ASID on every such flush. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
-
Vineet Gupta authored
ARCHes with special requirements for evicting THP backing TLB entries can implement this. Otherwise also, it can help optimize TLB flush in THP regime. stock flush_tlb_range() typically has optimization to nuke the entire TLB if flush span is greater than a certain threshhold, which will likely be true for a single huge page. Thus a single thp flush will invalidate the entrire TLB which is not desirable. e.g. see arch/arc: flush_pmd_tlb_range Acked-by: Kirill A.

MMUv4 in HS38x cores supports Super Pages which are basis for Linux THP support. Normal and Super pages can co-exist (ofcourse not overlap) in TLB with a new bit "SZ" in TLB page desciptor to distinguish between them. Super Page size is configurable in hardware (4K to 16M), but fixed once RTL builds. The exact THP size a Linx configuration will support is a function of: - MMU page size (typical 8K, RTL fixed) - software page walker address split between PGD:PTE:PFN (typical 11:8:13, but can be changed with 1 line) So for above default, THP size supported is 8K * 256 = 2M Default Page Walker is 2 levels, PGD:PTE:PFN, which in THP regime reduces to 1 level (as PTE is folded into PGD and canonically referred to as PMD). Thus thp PMD accessors are implemented in terms of PTE (just like sparc) Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

ARC is the only arch with unsigned long type (vs. struct page *). Historically this was done to avoid the page_address() calls in various arch hooks which need to get the virtual/logical address of the table. Some arches alternately define it as pte_t *, and is as efficient as unsigned long (generated code doesn't change) Suggested-by: Kirill A.

Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf. Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on the pull request, which is why it's going in only now. The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems. strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers. strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value which returns the original length of the source string. Which means that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily subtle. strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination (but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for untrusted source data too. So why did I waffle about this for so long? Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing these interminable series of trivial conversion patches. And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse. Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested. So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface. But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things that aren't actually known to be broken. * 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: tile: use global strscpy() rather than private copy string: provide strscpy() Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures

The MIPS syscall handler code used to return -ENOSYS on invalid syscalls. Whilst this is expected, it caused problems for seccomp filters because the said filters never had the change to run since the code returned -ENOSYS before triggering them. This caused problems on the chromium testsuite for filters looking for invalid syscalls. This has now changed and the seccomp filters are always run even if the syscall is invalid. We return -ENOSYS once we return from the seccomp filters. Moreover, similar codepaths have been merged in the process which simplifies somewhat the overall syscall code.

This patch fixes one cases where abs() was being used with 64-bit nanosecond values, where the result may be capped at 32-bits. This potentially could cause watchdog false negatives on 32-bit systems, so this patch addresses the issue by using abs64().

When configuring the interrupt mapping for a new device, we iterate over all the possible aliases to account for their maximum MSI allocation. This was introduced by e8137f4f ("irqchip: gicv3-its: Iterate over PCI aliases to generate ITS configuration"). Turns out that the code doing that is a bit braindead, and repeatedly accounts for the same device over and over. Fix this by counting the actual alias that is passed to us by the core code.

During development it was found that a number of builds would panic during the kernel init process, more specifically in 'delayed_fput()'. The panic showed the kernel trying to access a memory address of '0xb7fdc00' while traversing the 'delayed_fput_list' structure. Comparing this memory address to the value of the pointer used on builds that did not panic confirmed that the pointer on crashing builds must have been corrupted at some stage earlier in the init process. By traversing the list earlier and earlier in the code it was found that 'plat_mem_setup()' was responsible for corrupting the list. Specifically the line: memory = cvmx_bootmem_phy_alloc(mem_alloc_size, __pa_symbol(&__init_end), -1, 0x100000, CVMX_BOOTMEM_FLAG_NO_LOCKING); Which would eventually call: cvmx_bootmem_phy_set_size(new_ent_addr, cvmx_bootmem_phy_get_size (ent_addr) - (desired_min_addr - ent_addr)); Where 'new_ent_addr'=0x4800000 (the address of 'delayed_fput_list') and the second argument (size)=0xb7fdc00 (the address causing the kernel panic). The job of this part of 'plat_mem_setup()' is to allocate chunks of memory for the kernel to use. At the start of each chunk of memory the size of the chunk is written, hence the value 0xb7fdc00 is written onto memory at 0x4800000, therefore the kernel panics when it goes back to access 'delayed_fput_list' later on in the initialisation process. On builds that were not crashing it was found that the compiler had placed 'delayed_fput_list' at 0x4800008, meaning it wasn't corrupted (but something else in memory was overwritten). As can be seen in the first function call above the code begins to allocate chunks of memory beginning from the symbol '__init_end'. The MIPS linker script (vmlinux.lds.S) however defines the .bss section to begin after '__init_end'. Therefore memory within the .bss section is allocated to the kernel to use (System.map shows 'delayed_fput_list' and other kernel structures to be in .bss). To stop the kernel panic (and the .bss section being corrupted) memory should begin being allocated from the symbol '_end'.

Commit 1a3d5957 ("MIPS: Tidy up FPU context switching") removed FP context saving from the asm-written resume function in favour of reusing existing code to perform the same task. However it only removed the FP context saving code from the r4k_switch.S implementation of resume. Remove it from the r2300_switch.S implementation too in order to prevent attempting to save the FP context twice, which would likely lead to an exception from the second save because the FPU had already been disabled by the first save.

That formerly led to an exception from the second save as follows because the FPU had already been disabled by the first save: do_cpu invoked from kernel context![#1]: CPU: 0 PID: 2 Comm: kthreadd Not tainted 4.3.0-rc2-dirty #2 task: 800000041f84a008 ti: 800000041f864000 task.ti: 800000041f864000 $ 0 : 0000000000000000 0000000010008ce1 0000000000100000 ffffffffbfffffff $ 4 : 800000041f84a008 800000041f84ac08 800000041f84c000 0000000000000004 $ 8 : 0000000000000001 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000001 $12 : 0000000010008ce3 0000000000119c60 0000000000000036 800000041f864000 $16 : 800000041f84ac08 800000000792ce80 800000041f84a008 ffffffff81758b00 $20 : 0000000000000000 ffffffff8175ae50 0000000000000000 ffffffff8176c740 $24 : 0000000000000006 ffffffff81170300 $28 : 800000041f864000 800000041f867d90 0000000000000000 ffffffff815f3fa0 Hi : 0000000000fa8257 Lo : ffffffffe15cfc00 epc : ffffffff8112821c resume+0x9c/0x200 ra : ffffffff815f3fa0 __schedule+0x3f0/0x7d8 Status: 10008ce2 KX SX UX KERNEL EXL Cause : 1080002c (ExcCode 0b) PrId : 000d0601 (Cavium Octeon+) Modules linked in: Process kthreadd (pid: 2, threadinfo=800000041f864000, task=800000041f84a008, tls=0000000000000000) Stack : ffffffff81604218 ffffffff815f7e08 800000041f84a008 ffffffff811681b0 800000041f84a008 ffffffff817e9878 0000000000000000 ffffffff81770000 ffffffff81768340 ffffffff81161398 0000000000000001 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 ffffffff815f4424 0000000000000000 ffffffff81161d68 ffffffff81161be8 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 ffffffff8111e16c 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 ...

Pull IOVA fixes from David Woodhouse: "The main fix here is the first one, fixing the over-allocation of size-aligned requests. The other patches simply make the existing IOVA code available to users other than the Intel VT-d driver, with no functional change. I concede the latter really *should* have been submitted during the merge window, but since it's basically risk-free and people are waiting to build on top of it and it's my fault I didn't get it in, I (and they) would be grateful if you'd take it" * git://git.infradead.org/intel-iommu: iommu: Make the iova library a module iommu: iova: Export symbols iommu: iova: Move iova cache management to the iova library iommu/iova: Avoid over-allocating when size-aligned
