After changing CPU online status, it will not be sent any IPIs such as in
__flush_cache_all() on software coherency systems. Do this before disabling
local IRQ.

[ Upstream commit cea8cd498f4f1c30ea27e3664b3c671e495c4fce ]

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.

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

[ Upstream commit 11887ed172a6960673f130dad8f8fb42778f64d7 ]

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 FCSR Cause bit handling for correct SIGFPE issue</title>

[ Upstream commit 5a1aca4469fdccd5b74ba0b4e490173b2b447895 ]

Sanitize FCSR Cause bit handling, following a trail of past attempts:

* commit 4249548454f7 ("MIPS: ptrace: Fix FP context restoration FCSR
regression"),

* commit 443c44032a54 ("MIPS: Always clear FCSR cause bits after
emulation"),

* commit 64bedffe4968 ("MIPS: Clear [MSA]FPE CSR.Cause after
notify_die()"),

* commit b1442d39fac2 ("MIPS: Prevent user from setting FCSR cause
bits"),

* commit b54d2901517d ("Properly handle branch delay slots in connection
with signals.").

Specifically do not mask these bits out in ptrace(2) processing and send
a SIGFPE signal instead whenever a matching pair of an FCSR Cause and
Enable bit is seen as execution of an affected context is about to
resume.  Only then clear Cause bits, and even then do not clear any bits
that are set but masked with the respective Enable bits.  Adjust Cause
bit clearing throughout code likewise, except within the FPU emulator
proper where they are set according to IEEE 754 exceptions raised as the
operation emulated executed.  Do so so that any IEEE 754 exceptions
subject to their default handling are recorded like with operations
executed by FPU hardware.

<title>MIPS: VDSO: Match data page cache colouring when D$ aliases</title>

commit 0f02cfbc3d9e413d450d8d0fd660077c23f67eff upstream.

When a system suffers from dcache aliasing a user program may observe
stale VDSO data from an aliased cache line. Notably this can break the
expectation that clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, ...) is, as its name
suggests, monotonic.

In order to ensure that users observe updates to the VDSO data page as
intended, align the user mappings of the VDSO data page such that their
cache colouring matches that of the virtual address range which the
kernel will use to update the data page - typically its unmapped address
within kseg0.

This ensures that we don't introduce aliasing cache lines for the VDSO
data page, and therefore that userland will observe updates without
requiring cache invalidation.

commit b0f5a8f32e8bbdaae1abb8abe2d3cbafaba57e08 upstream.

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.

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>MIPS: Use async IPIs for arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace()</title>

commit b63e132b6433a41cf311e8bc382d33fd2b73b505 upstream.

The current MIPS implementation of arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() is
broken because it attempts to use synchronous IPIs despite the fact that
it may be run with interrupts disabled.

This means that when arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() is invoked, for
example by the RCU CPU stall watchdog, we may:

  - Deadlock due to use of synchronous IPIs with interrupts disabled,
    causing the CPU that's attempting to generate the backtrace output
    to hang itself.

  - Not succeed in generating the desired output from remote CPUs.

  - Produce warnings about this from smp_call_function_many(), for
    example:

    ...

This patch switches MIPS' arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() to use async
IPIs &amp; smp_call_function_single_async() in order to resolve this
problem. We ensure use of the pre-allocated call_single_data_t
structures is serialized by maintaining a cpumask indicating that
they're busy, and refusing to attempt to send an IPI when a CPU's bit is
set in this mask. This should only happen if a CPU hasn't responded to a
previous backtrace IPI - ie. if it's hung - and we print a warning to
the console in this case.

I've marked this for stable branches as far back as v4.9, to which it
applies cleanly. Strictly speaking the faulty MIPS implementation can be
traced further back to commit 856839b76836 ("MIPS: Add
arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() function") in v3.19, but kernel
versions v3.19 through v4.8 will require further work to backport due to
the rework performed in commit 9a01c3ed5cdb ("nmi_backtrace: add more
trigger_*_cpu_backtrace() methods").

the console in this case.

I've marked this for stable branches as far back as v4.9, to which it
applies cleanly. Strictly speaking the faulty MIPS implementation can be
traced further back to commit 856839b76836 ("MIPS: Add
arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() function") in v3.19, but kernel
versions v3.19 through v4.8 will require further work to backport due to
the rework performed in commit 9a01c3ed5cdb ("nmi_backtrace: add more
trigger_*_cpu_backtrace() methods").

<title>MIPS: Call dump_stack() from show_regs()</title>

commit 5a267832c2ec47b2dad0fdb291a96bb5b8869315 upstream.

The generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() function calls show_regs() when a struct
pt_regs is available, and dump_stack() otherwise. If we were to make use
of the generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() with MIPS' current implementation of
show_regs() this would mean that we see only register data with no
accompanying stack information, in contrast with our current
implementation which calls dump_stack() regardless of whether register
state is available.

In preparation for making use of the generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() to
implement arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace(), have our implementation of
show_regs() call dump_stack() and drop the explicit dump_stack() call in
arch_dump_stack() which is invoked by arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace().

This will allow the output we produce to remain the same after a later
patch switches to using nmi_cpu_backtrace(). It may mean that we produce
extra stack output in other uses of show_regs(), but this:

  1) Seems harmless.
  2) Is good for consistency between arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace()
     and other users of show_regs().
  3) Matches the behaviour of the ARM &amp; PowerPC architectures.

Marked for stable back to v4.9 as a prerequisite of the following patch
"MIPS: Call dump_stack() from show_regs()".

commit 6fb8656646f996d1eef42e6d56203c4915cb9e08 upstream.

ftrace_graph_caller was never run after calling ftrace_trace_function,
breaking the function graph tracer. Fix this, bringing it in line with the
x86 implementation.

While we're at it, also streamline the control flow of _mcount a bit to
reduce the number of branches.
