MIPS: Make set_pte() SMP safe.

2015-08-17T03:51:35+00:00

commit 46011e6ea39235e4aca656673c500eac81a07a17 upstream.

On MIPS the GLOBAL bit of the PTE must have the same value in any
aligned pair of PTEs.  These pairs of PTEs are referred to as
"buddies".  In a SMP system is is possible for two CPUs to be calling
set_pte() on adjacent PTEs at the same time.  There is a race between
setting the PTE and a different CPU setting the GLOBAL bit in its
buddy PTE.

This race can be observed when multiple CPUs are executing
vmap()/vfree() at the same time.

Make setting the buddy PTE's GLOBAL bit an atomic operation to close
the race condition.

The case of CONFIG_64BIT_PHYS_ADDR && CONFIG_CPU_MIPS32 is *not*
handled.

MIPS: Fix KVM guest fixmap address

2015-07-10T17:40:22+00:00

commit 8e748c8d09a9314eedb5c6367d9acfaacddcdc88 upstream.

KVM guest kernels for trap & emulate run in user mode, with a modified
set of kernel memory segments. However the fixmap address is still in
the normal KSeg3 region at 0xfffe0000 regardless, causing problems when
cache alias handling makes use of them when handling copy on write.

Therefore define FIXADDR_TOP as 0x7ffe0000 in the guest kernel mapped
region when CONFIG_KVM_GUEST is defined.

nosave: consolidate __nosave_{begin,end} in

2015-05-06T19:56:28+00:00

commit 7f8998c7aef3ac9c5f3f2943e083dfa6302e90d0 upstream.

The different architectures used their own (and different) declarations:

    extern __visible const void __nosave_begin, __nosave_end;
    extern const void __nosave_begin, __nosave_end;
    extern long __nosave_begin, __nosave_end;

Consolidate them using the first variant in .

MIPS: asm: thread_info: Add _TIF_SECCOMP flag

commit 137f7df8cead00688524c82360930845396b8a21 upstream.

Add _TIF_SECCOMP flag to _TIF_WORK_SYSCALL_ENTRY to indicate
that the system call needs to be checked against a seccomp filter.

MIPS: asm/reg.h: Make 32- and 64-bit definitions available at the same time

2014-09-17T16:03:58+00:00

commit bcec7c8da6b092b1ff3327fd83c2193adb12f684 upstream.

Get rid of the WANT_COMPAT_REG_H test and instead define both the 32-
and 64-bit register offset definitions at the same time with
MIPS{32,64}_ prefixes, then define the existing EF_* names to the
correct definitions for the kernel's bitness.

This patch is a prerequisite of the following bug fix patch.

The file uses u16 type but doesn't include its definition explicitly

compiler/gcc4: Add quirk for 'asm goto' miscompilation bug

2013-10-18T14:45:45+00:00

commit 3f0116c3238a96bc18ad4b4acefe4e7be32fa861 upstream.

Fengguang Wu, Oleg Nesterov and Peter Zijlstra tracked down
a kernel crash to a GCC bug: GCC miscompiles certain 'asm goto'
constructs, as outlined here:

  http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58670

Implement a workaround suggested by Jakub Jelinek.

MIPS: Expose missing pci_io{map,unmap} declarations

2013-08-15T05:59:10+00:00

commit 78857614104a26cdada4c53eea104752042bf5a1 upstream.

The GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP does not depend on CONFIG_PCI so move
it to the CONFIG_MIPS symbol so it's always selected for MIPS.
This fixes the missing pci_iomap declaration for MIPS.
Moreover, the pci_iounmap function was not defined in the
io.h header file if the CONFIG_PCI symbol is not set,
but it should since MIPS is not using CONFIG_GENERIC_IOMAP.

This fixes the following problem on a allyesconfig:

drivers/net/ethernet/3com/3c59x.c:1031:2: error: implicit declaration of
function 'pci_iomap' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
drivers/net/ethernet/3com/3c59x.c:1044:3: error: implicit declaration of
function 'pci_iounmap' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

Pull MIPS fixes from Ralf Baechle:
 "Resurrect Alchemy platforms by invoking the WAIT instructions with
  interrupts enabled.  This still leaves the race condition between
  testing TIF_NEED_RESCHED and the WAIT instruction for Alchemy
  platforms which need a different fix than other MIPS platforms.  But
  at least it gets MIPS platforms flying again.

  There are also fixes for two build errors (CONFIG_FTRACE=y with
  CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE=n) and CONFIG_VIRTUALIZATION without CONFIG_KVM"
