Revert "MIPS: Save/restore MSA context around signals"

2014-07-07T01:59:09+00:00

commit 16f77de82f2d2f628306dab9bc4799df0d28a199 upstream.

This reverts commit eec43a224cf1 "MIPS: Save/restore MSA context around
signals" and the MSA parts of ca750649e08c "MIPS: kernel: signal:
Prevent save/restore FPU context in user memory" (the restore path of
which appears incorrect anyway...).

The reverted patch took care not to break compatibility with userland
users of struct sigcontext, but inadvertantly changed the offset of the
uc_sigmask field of struct ucontext. Thus Linux v3.15 breaks the
userland ABI. The MSA context will need to be saved via some other
opt-in mechanism, but for now revert the change to reduce the fallout.

This will have minimal impact upon use of MSA since the only supported
CPU which includes it (the P5600) is 32-bit and therefore requires that
the experimental CONFIG_MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT Kconfig option be selected
before the kernel will set FR=1 for a task, a requirement for MSA use.
Thus the users of MSA are limited to known small groups of people & this
patch won't be breaking any previously working MSA-using userland
outside of experimental settings.

MIPS: Fix inconsistancy of __NR_Linux_syscalls value

2014-05-25T10:43:26+00:00

Originally, __NR_O32_Linux_syscalls, __NR_N32_Linux_syscalls and
__NR_64_Linux_syscalls have the same values as __NR_Linux_syscalls in
corresponding ABIs. But after commit 367f0b50e502d (MIPS: Wire up
renameat2 syscall) they are not the same. I think this is incorrect and
need a fix.

MIPS: Change type of asid_cache to unsigned long

2014-05-21T10:25:39+00:00

asid_cache must be unsigned long otherwise on 64 bit systems it will
become 0 if the value in get_new_mmu_context() reaches 0xffffffff and
in the end the assumption of ASID_FIRST_VERSION is not true anymore
thus leads to more dangerous things.

MIPS: Add new AUDIT_ARCH token for the N32 ABI on MIPS64

2014-05-13T23:39:54+00:00

A MIPS64 kernel may support ELF files for all 3 MIPS ABIs
(O32, N32, N64). Furthermore, the AUDIT_ARCH_MIPS{,EL}64 token
does not provide enough information about the ABI for the 64-bit
process. As a result of which, userland needs to use complex
seccomp filters to decide whether a syscall belongs to the o32 or n32
or n64 ABI. Therefore, a new arch token for MIPS64/n32 is added so it
can be used by seccomp to explicitely set syscall filters for this ABI.

MIPS: DEC/SNI: O32 wrapper stack switching fixes

2014-05-12T22:29:35+00:00

Commit 231a35d37293ab88d325a9cb94e5474c156282c0 [[MIPS] RM: Collected
changes] broke DECstation support by introducing an incompatible copy of
arch/mips/dec/prom/call_o32.S in arch/mips/fw/lib/, built unconditionally.
The copy happens to land earlier of the two among the modules used in the
link and is therefore chosen for the DECstation rather than the intended
original.  As a result random kernel data is corrupted because a pointer
to the "%s" formatted output template is used as a temporary stack pointer
rather than being passed down to prom_printf.  This also explains why
prom_printf still works, up to a point -- the next argument is the actual
string to output so it works just fine as the output template until enough
kernel data has been corrupted to cause a crash.

This change adjusts the modified wrapper in arch/mips/fw/lib/call_o32.S to
let callers request no stack switching by passing a null temporary stack
pointer in $a1, reworks the DECstation callers to work with the updated
interface and removes the old copy from arch/mips/dec/prom/call_o32.S.  A
few minor readability adjustments are included as well, most importantly
O32_SZREG is now used throughout where applicable rather than hardcoded
multiplies of 4 and $fp is used to access the argument save area as a more
usual register to operate the stack with rather than $s0.

Finally an update is made to the temporary stack space used by the SNI
platform to guarantee 8-byte alignment as per o32 requirements.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "PPC and ARM do not have much going on this time.  Most of the cool
  stuff, instead, is in s390 and (after a few releases) x86.

  ARM has some caching fixes and PPC has transactional memory support in
  guests.  MIPS has some fixes, with more probably coming in 3.16 as
  QEMU will soon get support for MIPS KVM.

  For x86 there are optimizations for debug registers, which trigger on
  some Windows games, and other important fixes for Windows guests.  We
  now expose to the guest Broadwell instruction set extensions and also
  Intel MPX.  There's also a fix/workaround for OS X guests, nested
  virtualization features (preemption timer), and a couple kvmclock
  refinements.

  For s390, the main news is asynchronous page faults, together with
  improvements to IRQs (floating irqs and adapter irqs) that speed up
  virtio devices"
