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.

[ Upstream commit 7cafc0b8bf130f038b0ec2dcdd6a9de6dc59b65a ]

We must handle data access exception as well as memory address unaligned
exceptions from return from trap window fill faults, not just normal
TLB misses.

Otherwise we can get an OOPS that looks like this:

The window trap handlers are slightly clever, the trap table entries for them are
composed of two pieces of code.  First comes the code that actually performs
the window fill or spill trap handling, and then there are three instructions at
the end which are for exception processing.

The userland register window fill handler is:

	add	%sp, STACK_BIAS + 0x00, %g1;		\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %l0;			\
	mov	0x08, %g2;				\
	mov	0x10, %g3;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %l1;			\
	mov	0x18, %g5;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %l2;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %l3;			\
	add	%g1, 0x20, %g1;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %l4;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %l5;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %l6;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %l7;			\
	add	%g1, 0x20, %g1;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %i0;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %i1;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %i2;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %i3;			\
	add	%g1, 0x20, %g1;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %i4;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %i5;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %i6;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %i7;			\
	restored;					\
	retry; nop; nop; nop; nop;			\
	b,a,pt	%xcc, fill_fixup_dax;			\
	b,a,pt	%xcc, fill_fixup_mna;			\
	b,a,pt	%xcc, fill_fixup;

And the way this works is that if any of those memory accesses
generate an exception, the exception handler can revector to one of
those final three branch instructions depending upon which kind of
exception the memory access took.  In this way, the fault handler
doesn't have to know if it was a spill or a fill that it's handling
the fault for.  It just always branches to the last instruction in
the parent trap's handler.

For example, for a regular fault, the code goes:

winfix_trampoline:
	rdpr	%tpc, %g3
	or	%g3, 0x7c, %g3
	wrpr	%g3, %tnpc
	done

All window trap handlers are 0x80 aligned, so if we "or" 0x7c into the
trap time program counter, we'll get that final instruction in the
trap handler.

On return from trap, we have to pull the register window in but we do
this by hand instead of just executing a "restore" instruction for
several reasons.  The largest being that from Niagara and onward we
simply don't have enough levels in the trap stack to fully resolve all
possible exception cases of a window fault when we are already at
trap level 1 (which we enter to get ready to return from the original
trap).

This is executed inline via the FILL_*_RTRAP handlers.  rtrap_64.S's
code branches directly to these to do the window fill by hand if
necessary.  Now if you look at them, we'll see at the end:

	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;
	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;
	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;

And oops, all three cases are handled like a fault.

This doesn't work because each of these trap types (data access
exception, memory address unaligned, and faults) store their auxiliary
info in different registers to pass on to the C handler which does the
real work.

So in the case where the stack was unaligned, the unaligned trap
handler sets up the arg registers one way, and then we branched to
the fault handler which expects them setup another way.

So the FAULT_TYPE_* value ends up basically being garbage, and
randomly would generate the backtrace seen above.

And the way this works is that if any of those memory accesses
generate an exception, the exception handler can revector to one of
those final three branch instructions depending upon which kind of
exception the memory access took.  In this way, the fault handler
doesn't have to know if it was a spill or a fill that it's handling
the fault for.  It just always branches to the last instruction in
the parent trap's handler.

For example, for a regular fault, the code goes:

winfix_trampoline:
	rdpr	%tpc, %g3
	or	%g3, 0x7c, %g3
	wrpr	%g3, %tnpc
	done

All window trap handlers are 0x80 aligned, so if we "or" 0x7c into the
trap time program counter, we'll get that final instruction in the
trap handler.

On return from trap, we have to pull the register window in but we do
this by hand instead of just executing a "restore" instruction for
several reasons.  The largest being that from Niagara and onward we
simply don't have enough levels in the trap stack to fully resolve all

This is executed inline via the FILL_*_RTRAP handlers.  rtrap_64.S's
code branches directly to these to do the window fill by hand if
necessary.  Now if you look at them, we'll see at the end:

	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;
	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;
	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;

And oops, all three cases are handled like a fault.

This doesn't work because each of these trap types (data access
exception, memory address unaligned, and faults) store their auxiliary
info in different registers to pass on to the C handler which does the
real work.

So in the case where the stack was unaligned, the unaligned trap
handler sets up the arg registers one way, and then we branched to
the fault handler which expects them setup another way.

So the FAULT_TYPE_* value ends up basically being garbage, and
randomly would generate the backtrace seen above.

are stored in the context register.

This is called with interrupts disabled, however ctx_alloc_lock

[ Upstream commit d0c31e02005764dae0aab130a57e9794d06b824d ]

Details:
Here is the call sequence
virtfn_add-&gt;__mlx4_init_one-&gt;dma_set_mask-&gt;dma_supported

The panic happened at line 760(file arch/sparc/kernel/iommu.c)

758 int dma_supported(struct device *dev, u64 device_mask)
759 {
760         struct iommu *iommu = dev-&gt;archdata.iommu;
761         u64 dma_addr_mask = iommu-&gt;dma_addr_mask;
762
763         if (device_mask &gt;= (1UL &lt;&lt; 32UL))
764                 return 0;
765
766         if ((device_mask &amp; dma_addr_mask) == dma_addr_mask)
767                 return 1;
768
769 #ifdef CONFIG_PCI
770         if (dev_is_pci(dev))
771		return pci64_dma_supported(to_pci_dev(dev), device_mask);
772 #endif
773
774         return 0;
775 }
776 EXPORT_SYMBOL(dma_supported);

Same panic happened with Intel ixgbe driver also.

SR-IOV code looks for arch specific data while enabling
VFs. When VF device is added, driver probe function makes set
of calls to initialize the pci device. Because the VF device is
added different way than the normal PF device(which happens via
of_create_pci_dev for sparc), some of the arch specific initialization
does not happen for VF device.  That causes panic when archdata is
accessed.

To fix this, I have used already defined weak function
pcibios_setup_device to copy archdata from PF to VF.
Also verified the fix.

[ Upstream commit 36beca6571c941b28b0798667608239731f9bc3a ]

Orabug: 22495713

Currently, NUMA node distance matrix is initialized only
when a machine descriptor (MD) exists. However, sun4u
machines (e.g. Sun Blade 2500) do not have an MD and thus
distance values were left uninitialized. The initialization
is now moved such that it happens on both sun4u and sun4v.

[ Upstream commit 49fa5230462f9f2c4e97c81356473a6bdf06c422 ]

The system call tracing bug fix mentioned in the Fixes tag
below increased the amount of assembler code in the sequence
of assembler files included by head_64.S

This caused to total set of code to exceed 0x4000 bytes in
size, which overflows the expression in head_64.S that works
to place swapper_tsb at address 0x408000.

When this is violated, the TSB is not properly aligned, and
also the trap table is not aligned properly either.  All of
this together results in failed boots.

So, do two things:

1) Simplify some code by using ba,a instead of ba/nop to get
   those bytes back.

2) Add a linker script assertion to make sure that if this
   happens again the build will fail.

[ Upstream commit 1a40b95374f680625318ab61d81958e949e0afe3 ]

A system call trace trigger on entry allows the tracing
process to inspect and potentially change the traced
process's registers.

Account for that by reloading the %g1 (syscall number)
and %i0-%i5 (syscall argument) values.  We need to be
careful to revalidate the range of %g1, and reload the
system call table entry it corresponds to into %l7.
