MIPS: MSC: Prevent out-of-bounds writes to MIPS SC ioremap'd region

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

commit ab6c15bc6620ebe220970cc040b29bcb2757f373 upstream.

Previously, the lower limit for the MIPS SC initialization loop was
set incorrectly allowing one extra loop leading to writes
beyond the MSC ioremap'd space. More precisely, the value of the 'imp'
in the last loop increased beyond the msc_irqmap_t boundaries and
as a result of which, the 'n' variable was loaded with an incorrect
value. This value was used later on to calculate the offset in the
MSC01_IC_SUP which led to random crashes like the following one:

CPU 0 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address e75c0200,
epc == 8058dba4, ra == 8058db90
[...]
Call Trace:
[<8058dba4>] init_msc_irqs+0x104/0x154
[<8058b5bc>] arch_init_irq+0xd8/0x154

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!

This patch fixes the problem

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: ptrace: Avoid smp_processor_id() in preemptible code

2014-05-28T08:54:41+00:00

ptrace_{get,set}_watch_regs access current_cpu_data to get the watch
register count/masks, which calls smp_processor_id(). However they are
run in preemptible context and therefore trigger warnings like so:

[ 6340.092000] BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: gdb/367
[ 6340.092000] caller is ptrace_get_watch_regs+0x44/0x220

Since the watch register count/masks should be the same across all
CPUs, use boot_cpu_data instead. Note that this may need to change in
future should a heterogenous system be supported where the count/masks
are not the same across all CPUs (the current code is also incorrect
for this scenario - current_cpu_data here would not necessarily be
correct for the CPU that the target task will execute on).

MIPS: Fix branch emulation of branch likely instructions.

2014-05-22T23:00:26+00:00

Two issues:

  o For beql_op, beql_op, bne_op, bnel_op, blez_op, blezl_op, bgtz_op and
    bgtzl_op the wrong field was being checked for the instruction opcode.
  o For blez_op / blezl_op and bgtz_op / bgtzl_op the test was testing
    for the wrong opcode.

This bug got introduced by d8d4e3ae0b5c179c0bfd3f0af5b352d13bea9cfa [MIPS
Kprobes: Refactor branch emulation].

Revert "MIPS: MT: proc: Add support for printing VPE and TC ids"

2014-05-12T22:29:33+00:00

Reverts commit 795038a6910937fa167d47f6f6183db0eb8fb706 because
d6d3c9afaab47418ab2d7f874fb8aeac1f067104 provides the same functionality
in a more generic way.  Both patches applied however means that the
VPE and TC IDs get printed twice currently.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "Most of the changes were largely clean ups, and some documentation.
  But there were a few features that were added:

  Uprobes now work with event triggers and multi buffers and have
  support under ftrace and perf.

  The big feature is that the function tracer can now be used within the
  multi buffer instances.  That is, you can now trace some functions in
  one buffer, others in another buffer, all functions in a third buffer
  and so on.  They are basically agnostic from each other.  This only
  works for the function tracer and not for the function graph trace,
  although you can have the function graph tracer running in the top
  level buffer (or any tracer for that matter) and have different
  function tracing going on in the sub buffers"
