KEYS: 64-bit MIPS needs to use compat_sys_keyctl for 32-bit userspace

2016-08-16T07:29:02+00:00

commit 20f06ed9f61a185c6dabd662c310bed6189470df upstream.

MIPS64 needs to use compat_sys_keyctl for 32-bit userspace rather than
calling sys_keyctl.  The latter will work in a lot of cases, thereby hiding
the issue.

MIPS: KVM: Fix modular KVM under QEMU

2016-07-27T16:55:49+00:00

commit 797179bc4fe06c89e47a9f36f886f68640b423f8 upstream.

Copy __kvm_mips_vcpu_run() into unmapped memory, so that we can never
get a TLB refill exception in it when KVM is built as a module.

This was observed to happen with the host MIPS kernel running under
QEMU, due to a not entirely transparent optimisation in the QEMU TLB
handling where TLB entries replaced with TLBWR are copied to a separate
part of the TLB array. Code in those pages continue to be executable,
but those mappings persist only until the next ASID switch, even if they
are marked global.

An ASID switch happens in __kvm_mips_vcpu_run() at exception level after
switching to the guest exception base. Subsequent TLB mapped kernel
instructions just prior to switching to the guest trigger a TLB refill
exception, which enters the guest exception handlers without updating
EPC. This appears as a guest triggered TLB refill on a host kernel
mapped (host KSeg2) address, which is not handled correctly as user
(guest) mode accesses to kernel (host) segments always generate address
error exceptions.

MIPS: Fix 64k page support for 32 bit kernels.

2016-06-24T17:15:29+00:00

commit d7de413475f443957a0c1d256e405d19b3a2cb22 upstream.

TASK_SIZE was defined as 0x7fff8000UL which for 64k pages is not a
multiple of the page size.  Somewhere further down the math fails
such that executing an ELF binary fails.

MIPS: ath79: make bootconsole wait for both THRE and TEMT

2016-06-08T00:21:56+00:00

commit f5b556c94c8490d42fea79d7b4ae0ecbc291e69d upstream.

This makes the ath79 bootconsole behave the same way as the generic 8250
bootconsole.

Also waiting for TEMT (transmit buffer is empty) instead of just THRE
(transmit buffer is not full) ensures that all characters have been
transmitted before the real serial driver starts reconfiguring the serial
controller (which would sometimes result in garbage being transmitted.)
This change does not cause a visible performance loss.

In addition, this seems to fix a hang observed in certain configurations on
many AR7xxx/AR9xxx SoCs during autoconfig of the real serial driver.

A more complete follow-up patch will disable 8250 autoconfig for ath79
altogether (the serial controller is detected as a 16550A, which is not
fully compatible with the ath79 serial, and the autoconfig may lead to
undefined behavior on ath79.)

MIPS: Fix siginfo.h to use strict posix types

2016-06-08T00:21:56+00:00

commit 5daebc477da4dfeb31ae193d83084def58fd2697 upstream.

Commit 85efde6f4e0d ("make exported headers use strict posix types")
changed the asm-generic siginfo.h to use the __kernel_* types, and
commit 3a471cbc081b ("remove __KERNEL_STRICT_NAMES") make the internal
types accessible only to the kernel, but the MIPS implementation hasn't
been updated to match.

Switch to proper types now so that the exported asm/siginfo.h won't
produce quite so many compiler errors when included alone by a user
program.

MIPS: math-emu: Fix jalr emulation when rd == $0

2016-06-08T00:21:56+00:00

commit ab4a92e66741b35ca12f8497896bafbe579c28a1 upstream.

When emulating a jalr instruction with rd == $0, the code in
isBranchInstr was incorrectly writing to GPR $0 which should actually
always remain zeroed. This would lead to any further instructions
emulated which use $0 operating on a bogus value until the task is next
context switched, at which point the value of $0 in the task context
would be restored to the correct zero by a store in SAVE_SOME. Fix this
by not writing to rd if it is $0.

MIPS: traps: Fix SIGFPE information leak from `do_ov' and `do_trap_or_bp'

commit e723e3f7f9591b79e8c56b3d7c5a204a9c571b55 upstream.

Avoid sending a partially initialised `siginfo_t' structure along SIGFPE
signals issued from `do_ov' and `do_trap_or_bp', leading to information
leaking from the kernel stack.

MIPS: KVM: Uninit VCPU in vcpu_create error path

commit 585bb8f9a5e592f2ce7abbe5ed3112d5438d2754 upstream.

If either of the memory allocations in kvm_arch_vcpu_create() fail, the
vcpu which has been allocated and kvm_vcpu_init'd doesn't get uninit'd
in the error handling path. Add a call to kvm_vcpu_uninit() to fix this.

MIPS: KVM: Fix CACHE immediate offset sign extension

commit c5c2a3b998f1ff5a586f9d37e154070b8d550d17 upstream.

The immediate field of the CACHE instruction is signed, so ensure that
it gets sign extended by casting it to an int16_t rather than just
masking the low 16 bits.

MIPS: KVM: Fix ASID restoration logic

2016-03-03T23:06:46+00:00

commit 002374f371bd02df864cce1fe85d90dc5b292837 upstream.

ASID restoration on guest resume should determine the guest execution
mode based on the guest Status register rather than bit 30 of the guest
PC.

Fix the two places in locore.S that do this, loading the guest status
from the cop0 area. Note, this assembly is specific to the trap &
emulate implementation of KVM, so it doesn't need to check the
supervisor bit as that mode is not implemented in the guest.
