commit a30718868915fbb991a9ae9e45594b059f28e9ae upstream.

Linux expects that if a CPU modifies a memory location, then that
modification will eventually become visible to other CPUs in the system.

Loongson 3 CPUs include a Store Fill Buffer (SFB) which sits between a
core &amp; its L1 data cache, queueing memory accesses &amp; allowing for faster
forwarding of data from pending stores to younger loads from the core.
Unfortunately the SFB prioritizes loads such that a continuous stream of
loads may cause a pending write to be buffered indefinitely. This is
problematic if we end up with 2 CPUs which each perform a store that the
other polls for - one or both CPUs may end up with their stores buffered
in the SFB, never reaching cache due to the continuous reads from the
poll loop. Such a deadlock condition has been observed whilst running
qspinlock code.

This patch changes the definition of cpu_relax() to smp_mb() for
Loongson-3, forcing a flush of the SFB on SMP systems which will cause
any pending writes to make it as far as the L1 caches where they will
become visible to other CPUs. If the kernel is not compiled for SMP
support, this will expand to a barrier() as before.

This workaround matches that currently implemented for ARM when
CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_754327=y, which was introduced by commit 534be1d5a2da
("ARM: 6194/1: change definition of cpu_relax() for ARM11MPCore").

Although the workaround is only required when the Loongson 3 SFB
functionality is enabled, and we only began explicitly enabling that
functionality in v4.7 with commit 1e820da3c9af ("MIPS: Loongson-3:
Introduce CONFIG_LOONGSON3_ENHANCEMENT"), existing or future firmware
may enable the SFB which means we may need the workaround backported to
earlier kernels too.

  - Limit stable backport to v3.15+ where we support Loongson 3 CPUs.]

commit f5958b4cf4fc38ed4583ab83fb7c4cd1ab05f47b upstream.

Use the `unsigned long' rather than `__u32' type for DSP accumulator
registers, like with the regular MIPS multiply/divide accumulator and
general-purpose registers, as all are 64-bit in 64-bit implementations
and using a 32-bit data type leads to contents truncation on context
saving.

Update `arch_ptrace' and `compat_arch_ptrace' accordingly, removing
casts that are similarly not used with multiply/divide accumulator or
general-purpose register accesses.

<title>Revert "MIPS: BCM47XX: Enable 74K Core ExternalSync for PCIe erratum"</title>

<id>d5ea019f8a381f88545bb26993b62ec24a2796b7</id>
<content type='text'>
This reverts commit 2a027b47dba6 ("MIPS: BCM47XX: Enable 74K Core
ExternalSync for PCIe erratum").

Enabling ExternalSync caused a regression for BCM4718A1 (used e.g. in
Netgear E3000 and ASUS RT-N16): it simply hangs during PCIe
initialization. It's likely that BCM4717A1 is also affected.

I didn't notice that earlier as the only BCM47XX devices with PCIe I
own are:
1) BCM4706 with 2 x 14e4:4331
2) BCM4706 with 14e4:4360 and 14e4:4331
it appears that BCM4706 is unaffected.

While BCM5300X-ES300-RDS.pdf seems to document that erratum and its
workarounds (according to quotes provided by Tokunori) it seems not even
Broadcom follows them.

According to the provided info Broadcom should define CONF7_ES in their
SDK's mipsinc.h and implement workaround in the si_mips_init(). Checking
both didn't reveal such code. It *could* mean Broadcom also had some
problems with the given workaround.

<title>MIPS: io: Add barrier after register read in inX()</title>

<content type='text'>
While a barrier is present in the outX() functions before the register
write, a similar barrier is missing in the inX() functions after the
register read. This could allow memory accesses following inX() to
observe stale data.

This patch is very similar to commit a1cc7034e33d12dc1 ("MIPS: io: Add
barrier after register read in readX()"). Because war_io_reorder_wmb()
is both used by writeX() and outX(), if readX() need a barrier then so
does inX().

<id>2a027b47dba6b77ab8c8e47b589ae9bbc5ac6175</id>
<content type='text'>
The erratum and workaround are described by BCM5300X-ES300-RDS.pdf as
below.

  R10: PCIe Transactions Periodically Fail

    Description: The BCM5300X PCIe does not maintain transaction ordering.
                 This may cause PCIe transaction failure.
    Fix Comment: Add a dummy PCIe configuration read after a PCIe
                 configuration write to ensure PCIe configuration access
                 ordering. Set ES bit of CP0 configu7 register to enable
                 sync function so that the sync instruction is functional.
    Resolution:  hndpci.c: extpci_write_config()
                 hndmips.c: si_mips_init()
                 mipsinc.h CONF7_ES

This is fixed by the CFE MIPS bcmsi chipset driver also for BCM47XX.
Also the dummy PCIe configuration read is already implemented in the
Linux BCMA driver.

Enable ExternalSync in Config7 when CONFIG_BCMA_DRIVER_PCI_HOSTMODE=y
too so that the sync instruction is externalised.

                 sync function so that the sync instruction is functional.
    Resolution:  hndpci.c: extpci_write_config()
                 hndmips.c: si_mips_init()
                 mipsinc.h CONF7_ES

This is fixed by the CFE MIPS bcmsi chipset driver also for BCM47XX.
Also the dummy PCIe configuration read is already implemented in the
Linux BCMA driver.

Enable ExternalSync in Config7 when CONFIG_BCMA_DRIVER_PCI_HOSTMODE=y
too so that the sync instruction is externalised.

Pull MIPS updates from James Hogan:
 "These are the main MIPS changes for 4.18.

  Rough overview:

   - MAINTAINERS: Add Paul Burton as MIPS co-maintainer

   - Misc: Generic compiler intrinsics, Y2038 improvements, Perf+MT fixes

   - Platform support: Netgear WNR1000 V3, Microsemi Ocelot integrated
     switch, Ingenic watchdog cleanups

  More detailed  summary:

  Maintainers:

   - Add Paul Burton as MIPS co-maintainer, as I soon won't have access
     to much MIPS hardware, nor enough time to properly maintain MIPS on
     my own.

  Miscellaneous:

   - Use generic GCC library routines from lib/
     - Add notrace to generic ucmpdi2 implementation
     - Rename compiler intrinsic selects to GENERIC_LIB_*
     - vmlinuz: Use generic ashldi3

   - y2038: Convert update/read_persistent_clock() to *_clock64()
     - sni: Remove read_persistent_clock()

   - perf: Fix perf with MT counting other threads
     - Probe for per-TC perf counters in cpu-probe.c
     - Use correct VPE ID for VPE tracing

   - Avoid unneeded built-in.a in DTS dirs

   - sc-debugfs: Re-use kstrtobool_from_user

   - memset.S: Reinstate delay slot indentation

   - VPE: Fix spelling "uneeded" -&gt; "Unneeded"

  Platform support:

Pull timers and timekeeping updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Core infrastucture work for Y2038 to address the COMPAT interfaces:

     + Add a new Y2038 safe __kernel_timespec and use it in the core
       code

     + Introduce config switches which allow to control the various
       compat mechanisms

     + Use the new config switch in the posix timer code to control the
       32bit compat syscall implementation.

 - Prevent bogus selection of CPU local clocksources which causes an
   endless reselection loop

 - Remove the extra kthread in the clocksource code which has no value
   and just adds another level of indirection

 - The usual bunch of trivial updates, cleanups and fixlets all over the
   place

 - More SPDX conversions
