<title>MIPS: Add missing EHB in mtc0 -&gt; mfc0 sequence for DSPen</title>

<id>fcec538ef8cca0ad0b84432235dccd9059c8e6f8</id>

This resolves the hazard between the mtc0 in the change_c0_status() and
the mfc0 in configure_exception_vector(). Without resolving this hazard
configure_exception_vector() could read an old value and would restore
this old value again. This would revert the changes change_c0_status()
did. I checked this by printing out the read_c0_status() at the end of
per_cpu_trap_init() and the ST0_MX is not set without this patch.

The hazard is documented in the MIPS Architecture Reference Manual Vol.
III: MIPS32/microMIPS32 Privileged Resource Architecture (MD00088), rev
6.03 table 8.1 which includes:

   Producer | Consumer | Hazard
  ----------|----------|----------------------------
   mtc0     | mfc0     | any coprocessor 0 register

I saw this hazard on an Atheros AR9344 rev 2 SoC with a MIPS 74Kc CPU.
There the change_c0_status() function would activate the DSPen by
setting ST0_MX in the c0_status register. This was reverted and then the
system got a DSP exception when the DSP registers were saved in
save_dsp() in the first process switch. The crash looks like this:

[    0.089999] Mount-cache hash table entries: 1024 (order: 0, 4096 bytes, linear)
[    0.097796] Mountpoint-cache hash table entries: 1024 (order: 0, 4096 bytes, linear)
[    0.107070] Kernel panic - not syncing: Unexpected DSP exception
[    0.113470] Rebooting in 1 seconds..

We saw this problem in OpenWrt only on the MIPS 74Kc based Atheros SoCs,
not on the 24Kc based SoCs. We only saw it with kernel 5.4 not with
kernel 4.19, in addition we had to use GCC 8.4 or 9.X, with GCC 8.3 it
did not happen.

In the kernel I bisected this problem to commit 9012d011660e ("compiler:
allow all arches to enable CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING"), but when this was
reverted it also happened after commit 172dcd935c34b ("MIPS: Always
allocate exception vector for MIPSr2+").

Commit 0b24cae4d535 ("MIPS: Add missing EHB in mtc0 -&gt; mfc0 sequence.")
does similar changes to a different file. I am not sure if there are
more places affected by this problem.

<content type='text'>
This change converts the existing mmap_sem rwsem calls to use the new mmap
locking API instead.

The change is generated using coccinelle with the following rule:

// spatch --sp-file mmap_lock_api.cocci --in-place --include-headers --dir .

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once.  For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
        return (address &gt;&gt; PMD_SHIFT) &amp; (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
        return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt; to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g.  pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc().  So, there is no point to explicitly include &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt;
in the files that include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;.

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

	for f in $(git grep -l "include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;") ; do
		sed -i -e '/include &lt;asm\/pgtable.h&gt;/ d' $f
	done

Currently, the log-level of show_stack() depends on a platform
realization.  It creates situations where the headers are printed with
lower log level or higher than the stacktrace (depending on a platform or
user).

Furthermore, it forces the logic decision from user to an architecture
side.  In result, some users as sysrq/kdb/etc are doing tricks with
temporary rising console_loglevel while printing their messages.  And in
result it not only may print unwanted messages from other CPUs, but also
omit printing at all in the unlucky case where the printk() was deferred.

Introducing log-level parameter and KERN_UNSUPPRESSED [1] seems an easier
approach than introducing more printk buffers.  Also, it will consolidate
printings with headers.

Introduce show_stack_loglvl(), that eventually will substitute
show_stack().

Patch series "Add log level to show_stack()", v3.

Add log level argument to show_stack().

Done in three stages:
1. Introducing show_stack_loglvl() for every architecture
2. Migrating old users with an explicit log level
3. Renaming show_stack_loglvl() into show_stack()

Justification:

- It's a design mistake to move a business-logic decision into platform
  realization detail.

- I have currently two patches sets that would benefit from this work:
  Removing console_loglevel jumps in sysrq driver [1] Hung task warning
  before panic [2] - suggested by Tetsuo (but he probably didn't realise
  what it would involve).

- While doing (1), (2) the backtraces were adjusted to headers and other
  messages for each situation - so there won't be a situation when the
  backtrace is printed, but the headers are missing because they have
  lesser log level (or the reverse).

- As the result in (2) plays with console_loglevel for kdb are removed.

The least important for upstream, but maybe still worth to note that every
company I've worked in so far had an off-list patch to print backtrace
with the needed log level (but only for the architecture they cared
about).  If you have other ideas how you will benefit from show_stack()
with a log level - please, reply to this cover letter.

See also discussion on v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20191106083538.z5nlpuf64cigxigh@pathway.suse.cz/

This patch (of 50):

print_ip_sym() needs to have a log level parameter to comply with other
parts being printed.  Otherwise, half of the expected backtrace would be
printed and other may be missing with some logging level.

The following callee(s) are using now the adjusted log level:
- microblaze/unwind: the same level as headers &amp; userspace unwind.
  Note that pr_debug()'s there are for debugging the unwinder itself.
- nds32/traps: symbol addresses are printed with the same log level
  as backtrace headers.
- lockdep: ip for locking issues is printed with the same log level
  as other part of the warning.
- sched: ip where preemption was disabled is printed as error like
  the rest part of the message.
- ftrace: bug reports are now consistent in the log level being used.

Patch series "Add log level to show_stack()", v3.

Add log level argument to show_stack().

Done in three stages:
1. Introducing show_stack_loglvl() for every architecture
2. Migrating old users with an explicit log level
3. Renaming show_stack_loglvl() into show_stack()

Justification:

- It's a design mistake to move a business-logic decision into platform
  realization detail.

- I have currently two patches sets that would benefit from this work:
  Removing console_loglevel jumps in sysrq driver [1] Hung task warning
  before panic [2] - suggested by Tetsuo (but he probably didn't realise
  what it would involve).

- While doing (1), (2) the backtraces were adjusted to headers and other
  messages for each situation - so there won't be a situation when the
  backtrace is printed, but the headers are missing because they have
  lesser log level (or the reverse).

- As the result in (2) plays with console_loglevel for kdb are removed.

The least important for upstream, but maybe still worth to note that every
company I've worked in so far had an off-list patch to print backtrace
with the needed log level (but only for the architecture they cared
about).  If you have other ideas how you will benefit from show_stack()
with a log level - please, reply to this cover letter.

See also discussion on v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20191106083538.z5nlpuf64cigxigh@pathway.suse.cz/

This patch (of 50):

print_ip_sym() needs to have a log level parameter to comply with other
parts being printed.  Otherwise, half of the expected backtrace would be
printed and other may be missing with some logging level.

The following callee(s) are using now the adjusted log level:
- microblaze/unwind: the same level as headers &amp; userspace unwind.
  Note that pr_debug()'s there are for debugging the unwinder itself.
- nds32/traps: symbol addresses are printed with the same log level
  as backtrace headers.
- lockdep: ip for locking issues is printed with the same log level
  as other part of the warning.
- sched: ip where preemption was disabled is printed as error like
  the rest part of the message.
- ftrace: bug reports are now consistent in the log level being used.

<title>MIPS: Loongson64: Guard against future cores without CPUCFG</title>

Previously it was thought that all future Loongson cores would come with
native CPUCFG. From new information shared by Huacai this is definitely
not true (maybe some future 2K cores, for example), so collisions at
PRID_REV level are inevitable. The CPU model matching needs to take
PRID_IMP into consideration.

The emulation logic needs to be disabled for those future cores as well,
as we cannot possibly encode their non-discoverable features right now.

<title>MIPS: emulate CPUCFG instruction on older Loongson64 cores</title>

CPUCFG is the instruction for querying processor characteristics on
newer Loongson processors, much like CPUID of x86. Since the instruction
is supposedly designed to provide a unified way to do feature detection
(without having to, for example, parse /proc/cpuinfo which is too
heavyweight), it is important to provide compatibility for older cores
without native support. Fortunately, most of the fields can be
synthesized without changes to semantics. Performance is not really big
a concern, because feature detection logic is not expected to be
invoked very often in typical userland applications.

The instruction can't be emulated on LOONGSON_2EF cores, according to
FlyGoat's experiments. Because the LWC2 opcode is assigned to other
valid instructions on 2E and 2F, no RI exception is raised for us to
intercept. So compatibility is only extended back furthest to
Loongson-3A1000. Loongson-2K is covered too, as it is basically a remix
of various blocks from the 3A/3B models from a kernel perspective.

This is lightly based on Loongson's work on their Linux 3.10 fork, for
being the authority on the right feature flags to fill in, where things
aren't otherwise discoverable.
