powerpc/32: Fix again csum_partial_copy_generic()

2016-09-08T03:15:02+00:00

Commit 7aef4136566b0 ("powerpc32: rewrite csum_partial_copy_generic()
based on copy_tofrom_user()") introduced a bug when destination address
is odd and len is lower than cacheline size.

In that case the resulting csum value doesn't have to be rotated one
byte because the cache-aligned copy part is skipped so no alignment
is performed.

powerpc/32: Fix crash during static key init

2016-08-10T09:41:58+00:00

We cannot do those initializations from apply_feature_fixups() as
this function runs in a very restricted environment on 32-bit where
the kernel isn't running at its linked address and the PTRRELOC()
macro must be used for any global accesss.

Instead, split them into a separtate steup_feature_keys() function
which is called in a more suitable spot on ppc32.

powerpc/32: Fix early access to cpu_spec relocation

2016-08-03T05:43:16+00:00

Commit 9402c6846131 ("powerpc: Factor do_feature_fixup calls")
introduced a subtle bug on 32-bit. When reading the cpu spec from the
global, we not only need to do a pointer relocation on the global
address but also on the pointer we read from it.

This fixes crashes reported on MPC5200 based machines.

treewide: replace obsolete _refok by __ref

2016-08-02T21:31:41+00:00

There was only one use of __initdata_refok and __exit_refok

__init_refok was used 46 times against 82 for __ref.

Those definitions are obsolete since commit 312b1485fb50 ("Introduce new
section reference annotations tags: __ref, __refdata, __refconst")

This patch removes the following compatibility definitions and replaces
them treewide.

/* compatibility defines */
#define __init_refok     __ref
#define __initdata_refok __refdata
#define __exit_refok     __ref

I can also provide separate patches if necessary.
(One patch per tree and check in 1 month or 2 to remove old definitions)

powerpc: Add option to use jump label for cpu_has_feature()

2016-08-01T01:15:05+00:00

We do binary patching of asm code using CPU features, which is a
one-time operation, done during early boot. However checks of CPU
features in C code are currently done at run time, even though the set
of CPU features can never change after boot.

We can optimise this by using jump labels to implement cpu_has_feature(),
meaning checks in C code are binary patched into a single nop or branch.

For a C sequence along the lines of:

    if (cpu_has_feature(FOO))
         return 2;

The generated code before is roughly:

    ld      r9,-27640(r2)
    ld      r9,0(r9)
    lwz     r9,32(r9)
    cmpwi   cr7,r9,0
    bge     cr7, 1f
    li      r3,2
    blr
1:  ...

After (true):
    nop
    li      r3,2
    blr

After (false):
    b	1f
    li      r3,2
    blr
1:  ...

mpe: Rename MAX_CPU_FEATURES as we already have a #define with that
name, and define it simply as a constant, rather than doing tricks with
sizeof and NULL pointers. Rename the array to cpu_feature_keys. Use the
kconfig we added to guard it. Add BUILD_BUG_ON() if the feature is not a
compile time constant. Rewrite the change log.

powerpc/kernel: Check features don't change after patching

2016-08-01T01:14:56+00:00

Early in boot we binary patch some sections of code based on the CPU and
MMU feature bits. But it is a one-time patching, there is no facility
for repatching the code later if the set of features change.

It is a major bug if the set of features changes after we've done the
code patching - so add a check for it.
