commit a843d00d038b11267279e3b5388222320f9ddc1d upstream.

We found that TLB mismatch not only happens after kernel resume, but
also happens during snapshot restore. So move it to the beginning of
swsusp_arch_suspend().

commit 0add9c2f1cff9f3f1f2eb7e9babefa872a9d14b9 upstream.

HPET irq is routed to i8259 and then to MIPS CPU irq (cascade). After
commit a3e6c1eff5 (MIPS: IRQ: Fix disable_irq on CPU IRQs), if without
IRQF_NO_SUSPEND in cascade_irqaction, HPET interrupts will lost during
suspend. The result is machine cannot be waken up.

commit f7f8aea4b97c4d48e42f02cb37026bee445f239f upstream.

memsize denotes the amount of RAM we can access from kseg{0,1} and
that should be up to 256M. In case the bootloader reports a value
higher than that (perhaps reporting all the available RAM) it's best
if we fix it ourselves and just warn the user about that. This is
usually a problem with the bootloader and/or its environment.

<title>MIPS: lose_fpu(): Disable FPU when MSA enabled</title>

<content type='text'>
commit acaf6a97d623af123314c2f8ce4cf7254f6b2fc1 upstream.

The lose_fpu() function only disables the FPU in CP0_Status.CU1 if the
FPU is in use and MSA isn't enabled.

This isn't necessarily a problem because KSTK_STATUS(current), the
version of CP0_Status stored on the kernel stack on entry from user
mode, does always get updated and gets restored when returning to user
mode, but I don't think it was intended, and it is inconsistent with the
case of only the FPU being in use. Sometimes leaving the FPU enabled may
also mask kernel bugs where FPU operations are executed when the FPU
might not be enabled.

So lets disable the FPU in the MSA case too.

<title>MIPS: KVM: Handle MSA Disabled exceptions from guest</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 98119ad53376885819d93dfb8737b6a9a61ca0ba upstream.

Guest user mode can generate a guest MSA Disabled exception on an MSA
capable core by simply trying to execute an MSA instruction. Since this
exception is unknown to KVM it will be passed on to the guest kernel.
However guest Linux kernels prior to v3.15 do not set up an exception
handler for the MSA Disabled exception as they don't support any MSA
capable cores. This results in a guest OS panic.

Since an older processor ID may be being emulated, and MSA support is
not advertised to the guest, the correct behaviour is to generate a
Reserved Instruction exception in the guest kernel so it can send the
guest process an illegal instruction signal (SIGILL), as would happen
with a non-MSA-capable core.

Fix this as minimally as reasonably possible by preventing
kvm_mips_check_privilege() from relaying MSA Disabled exceptions from
guest user mode to the guest kernel, and handling the MSA Disabled
exception by emulating a Reserved Instruction exception in the guest,
via a new handle_msa_disabled() KVM callback.

<title>mm/hugetlb: reduce arch dependent code around follow_huge_*</title>

<id>a15d51461445280f1a3cabcd4962b99c9ee6c32c</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 61f77eda9bbf0d2e922197ed2dcf88638a639ce5 upstream.

Currently we have many duplicates in definitions around
follow_huge_addr(), follow_huge_pmd(), and follow_huge_pud(), so this
patch tries to remove the m.  The basic idea is to put the default
implementation for these functions in mm/hugetlb.c as weak symbols
(regardless of CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETL B), and to implement
arch-specific code only when the arch needs it.

For follow_huge_addr(), only powerpc and ia64 have their own
implementation, and in all other architectures this function just returns
ERR_PTR(-EINVAL).  So this patch sets returning ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) as
default.

As for follow_huge_(pmd|pud)(), if (pmd|pud)_huge() is implemented to
always return 0 in your architecture (like in ia64 or sparc,) it's never
called (the callsite is optimized away) no matter how implemented it is.
So in such architectures, we don't need arch-specific implementation.

In some architecture (like mips, s390 and tile,) their current
arch-specific follow_huge_(pmd|pud)() are effectively identical with the
common code, so this patch lets these architecture use the common code.

One exception is metag, where pmd_huge() could return non-zero but it
expects follow_huge_pmd() to always return NULL.  This means that we need
arch-specific implementation which returns NULL.  This behavior looks
strange to me (because non-zero pmd_huge() implies that the architecture
supports PMD-based hugepage, so follow_huge_pmd() can/should return some
relevant value,) but that's beyond this cleanup patch, so let's keep it.

Justification of non-trivial changes:
- in s390, follow_huge_pmd() checks !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE at first, and this
  patch removes the check. This is OK because we can assume MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE
  is true when follow_huge_pmd() can be called (note that pmd_huge() has
  the same check and always returns 0 for !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE.)
- in s390 and mips, we use HPAGE_MASK instead of PMD_MASK as done in common
  code. This patch forces these archs use PMD_MASK, but it's OK because
  they are identical in both archs.
  In s390, both of HPAGE_SHIFT and PMD_SHIFT are 20.
  In mips, HPAGE_SHIFT is defined as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT - 3) and
  PMD_SHIFT is define as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT + PTE_ORDER - 3), but
  PTE_ORDER is always 0, so these are identical.

commit b3cffac04eca9af46e1e23560a8ee22b1bd36d43 upstream.

Currently the guest exit trace event saves the VCPU pointer to the
structure, and the guest PC is retrieved by dereferencing it when the
event is printed rather than directly from the trace record. This isn't
safe as the printing may occur long afterwards, after the PC has changed
and potentially after the VCPU has been freed. Usually this results in
the same (wrong) PC being printed for multiple trace events. It also
isn't portable as userland has no way to access the VCPU data structure
when interpreting the trace record itself.

Lets save the actual PC in the structure so that the correct value is
accessible later.

<title>MIPS: HTW: Prevent accidental HTW start due to nested htw_{start, stop}</title>

commit ed4cbc81addbc076b016c5b979fd1a02f0897f0a upstream.

activate_mm() and switch_mm() call get_new_mmu_context() which in turn
can enable the HTW before the entryhi is changed with the new ASID.
Since the latter will enable the HTW in local_flush_tlb_all(),
then there is a small timing window where the HTW is running with the
new ASID but with an old pgd since the TLBMISS_HANDLER_SETUP_PGD
hasn't assigned a new one yet. In order to prevent that, we introduce a
simple htw counter to avoid starting HTW accidentally due to nested
htw_{start,stop}() sequences. Moreover, since various IPI calls can
enforce TLB flushing operations on a different core, such an operation
may interrupt another htw_{stop,start} in progress leading inconsistent
updates of the htw_seq variable. In order to avoid that, we disable the
interrupts whenever we update that variable.

<title>MIPS: Export MSA functions used by lose_fpu(1) for KVM</title>

commit ca5d25642e212f73492d332d95dc90ef46a0e8dc upstream.

Export the _save_msa asm function used by the lose_fpu(1) macro to GPL
modules so that KVM can make use of it when it is built as a module.

This fixes the following build error when CONFIG_KVM=m and
CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA=y due to commit f798217dfd03 ("KVM: MIPS: Don't leak
FPU/DSP to guest"):

ERROR: "_save_msa" [arch/mips/kvm/kvm.ko] undefined!
