MIPS: Malta: EVA: Rename 'eva_entry' to 'platform_eva_init'

2014-09-17T16:22:04+00:00

commit ca4d24f7954f3746742ba350c2276ff777f21173 upstream.

Rename 'eva_entry' to 'platform_eva_init' as required by the new
'eva_init' macro in the eva.h header. Since this macro is now used
in a platform dependent way, it must not depend on its caller so move
the t1 register initialization inside this macro. Also set the .reorder
assembler option in case the caller may have previously set .noreorder.
This may allow a few assembler optimizations. Finally include missing
headers and document the register usage for this macro.

MIPS: EVA: Add new EVA header

2014-09-17T16:22:04+00:00

commit f85b71ceabb9d8d8a9e34b045b5c43ffde3623b3 upstream.

Generic code may need to perform certain operations when EVA is
enabled, for example, configure the segmentation registers during
boot. In order to avoid using more CONFIG_EVA ifdefs in the arch code,
such functions will be added in this header instead.
Initially this header contains a macro which will be used by generic
code later on during VPEs configuration on secondary cores.
All it does is to call the platform specific EVA init code in case
EVA is enabled.

MIPS: syscall: Fix AUDIT value for O32 processes on MIPS64

2014-09-17T16:22:03+00:00

commit 40381529f84c4cda3bd2d20cab6a707508856b21 upstream.

On MIPS64, O32 processes set both TIF_32BIT_ADDR and
TIF_32BIT_REGS so the previous condition treated O32 applications
as N32 when evaluating seccomp filters. Fix the condition to check
both TIF_32BIT_{REGS, ADDR} for the N32 AUDIT flag.

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

2014-09-17T16:22:03+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.

MIPS: O32/32-bit: Fix bug which can cause incorrect system call restarts

2014-09-17T16:22:01+00:00

commit e90e6fddc57055c4c6b57f92787fea1c065d440b upstream.

On 32-bit/O32, pt_regs has a padding area at the beginning into which the
syscall arguments passed via the user stack are copied. 4 arguments
totalling 16 bytes are copied to offset 16 bytes into this area, however
the area is only 24 bytes long. This means the last 2 arguments overwrite
pt_regs->regs[{0,1}].

If a syscall function returns an error, handle_sys stores the original
syscall number in pt_regs->regs[0] for syscall restart. signal.c checks
whether regs[0] is non-zero, if it is it will check whether the syscall
return value is one of the ERESTART* codes to see if it must be
restarted.

Should a syscall be made that results in a non-zero value being copied
off the user stack into regs[0], and then returns a positive (non-error)
value that matches one of the ERESTART* error codes, this can be mistaken
for requiring a syscall restart.

While the possibility for this to occur has always existed, it is made
much more likely to occur by commit 46e12c07b3b9 ("MIPS: O32 / 32-bit:
Always copy 4 stack arguments."), since now every syscall will copy 4
arguments and overwrite regs[0], rather than just those with 7 or 8
arguments.

Since that commit, booting Debian under a 32-bit MIPS kernel almost
always results in a hang early in boot, due to a wait4 syscall returning
a PID that matches one of the ERESTART* codes, which then causes an
incorrect restart of the syscall.

The problem is fixed by increasing the size of the padding area so that
arguments copied off the stack will not overwrite pt_regs->regs[{0,1}].

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

2014-06-26T09:48:18+00:00

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.

sys_sgetmask/sys_ssetmask: add CONFIG_SGETMASK_SYSCALL

2014-06-04T23:54:14+00:00

sys_sgetmask and sys_ssetmask are obsolete system calls no longer

This patch replaces architecture related __ARCH_WANT_SYS_SGETMAX by expert
mode configuration.That option is enabled by default for those
architectures.
