commit 3c0be5849259b729580c23549330973a2dd513a2 upstream.

We have assembly implementations of strcpy(), strncpy(), strcmp() &amp;
strncmp() which:

 - Are simple byte-at-a-time loops with no particular optimizations. As
   a comment in the code describes, they're "rather naive".

 - Offer no clear performance advantage over the generic C
   implementations - in microbenchmarks performed by Alexander Lobakin
   the asm functions sometimes win &amp; sometimes lose, but generally not
   by large margins in either direction.

 - Don't support 64-bit kernels, where we already make use of the
   generic C implementations.

 - Tend to bloat kernel code size due to inlining.

 - Don't support CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE.

 - Won't support nanoMIPS without rework.

For all of these reasons, delete the asm implementations &amp; make use of
the generic C implementations for 32-bit kernels just like we already do
for 64-bit kernels.

<title>MIPS: VDSO: Use CLANG_FLAGS instead of filtering out '--target='</title>

commit 76d7fff22be3e4185ee5f9da2eecbd8188e76b2c upstream.

Commit ee67855ecd9d ("MIPS: vdso: Allow clang's --target flag in VDSO
cflags") allowed the '--target=' flag from the main Makefile to filter
through to the vDSO. However, it did not bring any of the other clang
specific flags for controlling the integrated assembler and the GNU
tools locations (--prefix=, --gcc-toolchain=, and -no-integrated-as).
Without these, we will get a warning (visible with tinyconfig):

arch/mips/vdso/elf.S:14:1: warning: DWARF2 only supports one section per
compilation unit
.pushsection .note.Linux, "a",@note ; .balign 4 ; .long 2f - 1f ; .long
4484f - 3f ; .long 0 ; 1:.asciz "Linux" ; 2:.balign 4 ; 3:
^
arch/mips/vdso/elf.S:34:2: warning: DWARF2 only supports one section per
compilation unit
 .section .mips_abiflags, "a"
 ^

All of these flags are bundled up under CLANG_FLAGS in the main Makefile
and exported so that they can be added to Makefiles that set their own
CFLAGS. Use this value instead of filtering out '--target=' so there is
no warning and all of the tools are properly used.

[ Upstream commit 894ef530012fb5078466efdfb2c15d8b2f1565cd ]

Commit 866b6a89c6d1 ("MIPS: Add DWARF unwinding to assembly") added
-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables to KBUILD_CFLAGS to prevent compiler
from emitting .eh_frame symbols.
However, as MIPS heavily uses CFI, that's not enough. Use the
approach taken for x86 (as it also uses CFI) and explicitly put CFI
symbols into the .debug_frame section (except for VDSO).
This allows us to drop .eh_frame from DISCARDS as it's no longer
being generated.

commit 8ac7c87acdcac156670f9920c8acbd84308ff4b1 upstream.

MIPS uses its own declaration of rwdata, and thus it should be kept
in sync with the asm-generic one. Currently PAGE_ALIGNED_DATA() is
missing from the linker script, which emits the following ld
warnings:

mips-alpine-linux-musl-ld: warning: orphan section
`.data..page_aligned' from `arch/mips/kernel/vdso.o' being placed
in section `.data..page_aligned'
mips-alpine-linux-musl-ld: warning: orphan section
`.data..page_aligned' from `arch/mips/vdso/vdso-image.o' being placed
in section `.data..page_aligned'

Add the necessary declaration, so the mentioned structures will be
placed in vmlinux as intended:

commit 69e976831cd53f9ba304fd20305b2025ecc78eab upstream.

LLVM-built Linux triggered a boot hangup with KASLR enabled.

arch/mips/kernel/relocate.c:get_random_boot() uses linux_banner,
which is a string constant, as a random seed, but accesses it
as an array of unsigned long (in rotate_xor()).
When the address of linux_banner is not aligned to sizeof(long),
such access emits unaligned access exception and hangs the kernel.

Use PTR_ALIGN() to align input address to sizeof(long) and also
align down the input length to prevent possible access-beyond-end.

commit 4d4f9c1a17a3480f8fe523673f7232b254d724b7 upstream.

The compressed payload is not necesarily 4-byte aligned, at least when
compiling with Clang. In that case, the 4-byte value appended to the
compressed payload that corresponds to the uncompressed kernel image
size must be read using get_unaligned_le32().

This fixes Clang-built kernels not booting on MIPS (tested on a Ingenic
JZ4770 board).

commit 5b058973d3205578aa6c9a71392e072a11ca44ef upstream.

When building mips tinyconfig with clang the following warning show up:

arch/mips/lib/uncached.c:45:6: warning: variable 'sp' is uninitialized when used here [-Wuninitialized]
        if (sp &gt;= (long)CKSEG0 &amp;&amp; sp &lt; (long)CKSEG2)
            ^~
arch/mips/lib/uncached.c:40:18: note: initialize the variable 'sp' to silence this warning
        register long sp __asm__("$sp");
                        ^
                         = 0
1 warning generated.

Rework to make an explicit inline move, instead of the non-standard use
of specifying registers for local variables. This is what's written
from the gcc-10 manual [1] about specifying registers for local
variables:

"6.47.5.2 Specifying Registers for Local Variables
.................................................
[...]

"The only supported use for this feature is to specify registers for
input and output operands when calling Extended 'asm' (*note Extended
Asm::).  [...]".

commit ad4fddef5f2345aa9214e979febe2f47639c10d9 upstream.

When building mips tinyconfig with clang the following error show up:

WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text+0x1940c): Section mismatch in reference from the function r4k_cache_init() to the function .init.text:loongson3_sc_init()
The function r4k_cache_init() references
the function __init loongson3_sc_init().
This is often because r4k_cache_init lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of loongson3_sc_init is wrong.

Remove marked __init from function loongson3_sc_init(),
mips_sc_probe_cm3(), and mips_sc_probe().
