Fix an API loophole introduced with commit 9791554b45a2 ("MIPS,prctl:
add PR_[GS]ET_FP_MODE prctl options for MIPS"), where the caller of
prctl(2) is incorrectly allowed to make a change to CP0.Status.FR or
CP0.Config5.FRE register bits even if CONFIG_MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT has
not been enabled, despite that an executable requesting the mode
requested via ELF file annotation would not be allowed to run in the
first place, or for n64 and n64 ABI tasks which do not have non-default
modes defined at all.  Add suitable checks to `mips_set_process_fp_mode'
and bail out if an invalid mode change has been requested for the ABI in
effect, even if the FPU hardware or emulation would otherwise allow it.

Always succeed however without taking any further action if the mode
requested is the same as one already in effect, regardless of whether
any mode change, should it be requested, would actually be allowed for
the task concerned.

<title>MIPS: Refactor handling of stack pointer in get_frame_info</title>

Commit 34c2f668d0f6 ("MIPS: microMIPS: Add unaligned access support.")
added handling of microMIPS instructions to manipulate the stack
pointer. The code that was added violates code style rules with long
lines caused by lots of nested conditionals.

The added code interprets (inline) any known stack pointer manipulation
instruction to find the stack frame size. Handling the microMIPS cases
added quite a bit of complication to this function.

Refactor is_sp_move_ins to perform the interpretation of the immediate
as the instruction manipulating the stack pointer is found. This reduces
the amount of indentation required in get_frame_info, and more closely
matches the operation of is_ra_save_ins.

<title>MIPS: Stacktrace: Fix microMIPS stack unwinding on big endian systems</title>

<id>41885b02127c7ae169dc94542de4a8eed175495a</id>
<content type='text'>
The stack unwinding code uses the mips_instuction union to decode the
instructions it finds. That union uses the __BITFIELD_FIELD macro to
reorder depending on endianness. The stack unwinding code always places
16bit instructions in halfword 1 of the union. This makes the union
accesses correct for little endian systems. Similarly, 32bit
instructions are reordered such that they are correct for little endian
systems. This handling leaves unwinding the stack on big endian systems
broken, as the mips_instruction union will then look for the fields in
the wrong halfword.

To fix this, use a logical shift to place the 16bit instruction into the
correct position in the word field of the union. Use the same shifting
to order the 2 halfwords of 32bit instuctions. Then replace accesses to
the halfword with accesses to the shifted word.
In the case of the ADDIUS5 instruction, switch to using the
mm16_r5_format union member to avoid the need for a 16bit shift.

When the immediate encoded in the instruction is accessed, it is sign
extended due to being a signed value being assigned to a signed integer.
The ISA specifies that this operation is an unsigned operation.
The sign extension leads us to incorrectly decode:

801e9c8e:       cbf1            sw      ra,68(sp)

As having an immediate of 1073741809.

Since the instruction format does not specify signed/unsigned, and this
is currently the only location to use this instuction format, change it
to an unsigned immediate.

Commit 34c2f668d0f6 ("MIPS: microMIPS: Add unaligned access support.")
added handling of microMIPS instructions to manipulate the stack
pointer. Unfortunately the decoding of the addiusp instruction was
incorrect, and performed a left shift by 2 bits to the raw immediate,
rather than decoding the immediate and then performing the shift, as
documented in the ISA.

This led to incomplete stack traces, due to incorrect frame sizes being
calculated. For example the instruction:
801faee0 &lt;do_sys_poll&gt;:
801faee0:       4e25            addiu   sp,sp,-952

As decoded by objdump, would be interpreted by the existing code as
having manipulated the stack pointer by +1096.

Fix this by changing the order of decoding the immediate and applying
the left shift. Also change to accessing the instuction through the
union to avoid the endianness problem of accesing halfword[0], which
will fail on big endian systems.

Cope with the special behaviour of immediates 0x0, 0x1, 0x1fe and 0x1ff
by XORing with 0x100 again if mod(immediate) &lt; 4. This logic was tested
with the following test code:

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	unsigned int enc;
	int imm;

	for (enc = 0; enc &lt; 512; ++enc) {
		int tmp = enc &lt;&lt; 2;
		imm = -(signed short)(tmp | ((tmp &amp; 0x100) ? 0xfe00 : 0));
		unsigned short tmp = enc;
		tmp = (tmp ^ 0x100) - 0x100;
		if ((unsigned short)(tmp + 2) &lt; 4)
			tmp ^= 0x100;
		imm = -(signed short)(tmp &lt;&lt; 2);
		printf("%#x\t%d\t-&gt;\t(%#x\t%d)\t%#x\t%d\n",
		       enc, enc,
		       (short)tmp, (short)tmp,
		       imm, imm);
	}
	return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Which generates the table:

input encoding	-&gt;	tmp (matching manual)	frame size
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
0	0	-&gt;	(0x100		256)	0xfffffc00	-1024

The addiusp instruction uses the pool16d opcode, with bit 0 of the
immediate set. The test for the addiusp opcode erroneously did a logical
and of the immediate with mm_addiusp_func, which has value 1, so this
test always passes when the immediate is non-zero.

Fix the test by replacing the logical and with a bitwise and.

<title>MIPS: Handle non word sized instructions when examining frame</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 34c2f668d0f6b ("MIPS: microMIPS: Add unaligned access support.")
added fairly broken support for handling 16bit microMIPS instructions in
get_frame_info(). It adjusts the instruction pointer by 16bits in the
case of a 16bit sp move instruction, but not any other 16bit
instruction.

Commit b6c7a324df37 ("MIPS: Fix get_frame_info() handling of microMIPS
function size") goes some way to fixing get_frame_info() to iterate over
microMIPS instuctions, but the instruction pointer is still manipulated
using a postincrement, and is of union mips_instruction type. Since the
union is sized to the largest member (a word), but microMIPS
instructions are a mix of halfword and word sizes, the function does not
always iterate correctly, ending up misaligned with the instruction
stream and interpreting it incorrectly.

Since the instruction modifying the stack pointer is usually the first
in the function, that one is usually handled correctly. But the
instruction which saves the return address to the sp is some variable
number of instructions into the frame and is frequently missed due to
not being on a word boundary, leading to incomplete walking of the
stack.

Fix this by incrementing the instruction pointer based on the size of
the previously decoded instruction (&amp; remove the hack introduced by
commit 34c2f668d0f6b ("MIPS: microMIPS: Add unaligned access support.")
which adjusts the instruction pointer in the case of a 16bit sp move
instruction, but not any other).

<title>MIPS: Fix issues in backtraces</title>
<updated>2017-09-06T09:01:00+00:00</updated>

<id>aee16625b193916d7616c37a1d20a703d9b3dd15</id>
<content type='text'>
I saw two problems when doing backtraces:

The compiler was putting a "fast return" at the top of some
functions, before it set up the frame.  The backtrace code
would stop when it saw a jump instruction, so it would never
get to the stack frame setup and would thus misinterpret it.
To fix this, don't look for jump instructions until the
frame setup has been seen.

The assembly code here is:

ffffffff80b885a0 &lt;serial8250_handle_irq&gt;:
ffffffff80b885a0:       c8a00003        bbit0   a1,0x0,ffffffff80b885b0 &lt;serial8250_handle_irq+0x10&gt;
ffffffff80b885a4:       0000102d        move    v0,zero
ffffffff80b885a8:       03e00008        jr      ra
ffffffff80b885ac:       00000000        nop
ffffffff80b885b0:       67bdffd0        daddiu  sp,sp,-48
ffffffff80b885b4:       ffb00008        sd      s0,8(sp)

The second problem was the compiler was putting the last
instruction of the frame save in the delay slot of the
jump instruction.  If it saved the RA in there, the
backtrace could would miss it and misinterpret the frame.
To fix this, make sure to process the instruction after
the first jump seen.

The assembly code for this is:

ffffffff80806fd0 &lt;plat_irq_dispatch&gt;:
ffffffff80806fd0:       67bdffd0        daddiu  sp,sp,-48
ffffffff80806fd4:       ffb30020        sd      s3,32(sp)
ffffffff80806fd8:       24130018        li      s3,24
ffffffff80806fdc:       ffb20018        sd      s2,24(sp)
ffffffff80806fe0:       3c12811c        lui     s2,0x811c
ffffffff80806fe4:       ffb10010        sd      s1,16(sp)

ffffffff80806ff0:       3c10811c        lui     s0,0x811c

<title>kthread: fix boot hang (regression) on MIPS/OpenRISC</title>

<id>b0f5a8f32e8bbdaae1abb8abe2d3cbafaba57e08</id>
<content type='text'>
This fixes a regression in commit 4d6501dce079 where I didn't notice
that MIPS and OpenRISC were reinitialising p-&gt;{set,clear}_child_tid to
NULL after our initialisation in copy_process().

We can simply get rid of the arch-specific initialisation here since it
is now always done in copy_process() before hitting copy_thread{,_tls}().

Review notes:

 - As far as I can tell, copy_process() is the only user of
   copy_thread_tls(), which is the only caller of copy_thread() for
   architectures that don't implement copy_thread_tls().

 - After this patch, there is no arch-specific code touching
   p-&gt;set_child_tid or p-&gt;clear_child_tid whatsoever.

 - It may look like MIPS/OpenRISC wanted to always have these fields be
   NULL, but that's not true, as copy_process() would unconditionally
   set them again _after_ calling copy_thread_tls() before commit
   4d6501dce079.
