arch/mips/kernel/traps: use vma_lookup() instead of find_vma()

2021-06-29T17:53:51+00:00

Use vma_lookup() to find the VMA at a specific address.  As vma_lookup()
will return NULL if the address is not within any VMA, the start address
no longer needs to be validated.

MIPS: uaccess: Remove get_fs/set_fs call sites

2021-04-06T12:36:56+00:00

Use new helpers to access user/kernel for functions, which are used with
user/kernel pointers. Instead of dealing with get_fs/set_fs select
user/kernel access via parameter.

MIPS: kernel: Reserve exception base early to prevent corruption

2021-03-09T10:22:59+00:00

BMIPS is one of the few platforms that do change the exception base.
After commit 2dcb39645441 ("memblock: do not start bottom-up allocations
with kernel_end") we started seeing BMIPS boards fail to boot with the
built-in FDT being corrupted.

Before the cited commit, early allocations would be in the [kernel_end,
RAM_END] range, but after commit they would be within [RAM_START +
PAGE_SIZE, RAM_END].

The custom exception base handler that is installed by
bmips_ebase_setup() done for BMIPS5000 CPUs ends-up trampling on the
memory region allocated by unflatten_and_copy_device_tree() thus
corrupting the FDT used by the kernel.

To fix this, we need to perform an early reservation of the custom
exception space. Additional we reserve the first 4k (1k for R3k) for
either normal exception vector space (legacy CPUs) or special vectors
like cache exceptions.

Huge thanks to Serge for analysing and proposing a solution to this
issue.

MIPS: Loongson-3: Enable COP2 usage in kernel

2020-09-21T20:15:03+00:00

Loongson-3's COP2 is Multi-Media coprocessor, it is disabled in kernel
mode by default. However, gslq/gssq (16-bytes load/store instructions)
overrides the instruction format of lwc2/swc2. If we wan't to use gslq/
gssq for optimization in kernel, we should enable COP2 usage in kernel.

Please pay attention that in this patch we only enable COP2 in kernel,
which means it will lose ST0_CU2 when a process go to user space (try
to use COP2 in user space will trigger an exception and then grab COP2,
which is similar to FPU). And as a result, we need to modify the context
switching code because the new scheduled process doesn't contain ST0_CU2
in its THERAD_STATUS probably.

For zboot, we disable gslq/gssq be generated by toolchain.

MIPS: add missing MSACSR and upper MSA initialization

2020-09-03T10:00:03+00:00

In cc97ab235f3f ("MIPS: Simplify FP context initialization), init_fp_ctx
just initialize the fp/msa context, and own_fp_inatomic just restore
FCSR and 64bit FP regs from it, but miss MSACSR and upper MSA regs for
MSA, so MSACSR and MSA upper regs's value from previous task on current
cpu can leak into current task and cause unpredictable behavior when MSA
context not initialized.

MIPS: handle Loongson-specific GSExc exception

2020-07-31T15:52:47+00:00

Newer Loongson cores (Loongson-3A R2 and newer) use the
implementation-dependent ExcCode 16 to signal Loongson-specific
exceptions. The extended cause is put in the non-standard CP0.Diag1
register which is CP0 Register 22 Select 1, called GSCause in Loongson
manuals. Inside is an exception code bitfield called GSExcCode, only
codes 0 to 6 inclusive are documented (so far, in the Loongson 3A3000
User Manual, Volume 2).

During experiments, it was found that some undocumented unprivileged
instructions can trigger the also-undocumented GSExcCode 8 on Loongson
3A4000. Processor state is not corrupted, but we cannot continue without
further knowledge, and Loongson is not providing that information as of
this writing. So we send SIGILL on seeing this exception code to thwart
easy local DoS attacks.

Other exception codes are made fatal, partly because of insufficient
knowledge, also partly because they are not as easily reproduced. None
of them are encountered in the wild with upstream kernels and userspace
so far.

Some older cores (Loongson-3A1000 and Loongson-3B1500) have ExcCode 16
too, but the semantic is equivalent to GSExcCode 0. Because the
respective manuals did not mention the CP0.Diag1 register or its read
behavior, these cores are not covered in this patch, as MFC0 from
non-existent CP0 registers is UNDEFINED according to the MIPS
architecture spec.

MIPS: only register FTLBPar exception handler for supported models

2020-07-31T15:52:10+00:00

Previously ExcCode 16 is unconditionally treated as the FTLB parity
exception (FTLBPar), but in fact its semantic is implementation-
dependent. Looking at various manuals it seems the FTLBPar exception is
only present on some recent MIPS Technologies cores, so only register
the handler on these.

mips: traps, add __init to parity_protection_init

It references __initdata and is called only from an __init function:
trap_init. This avoids section mismatches (which I am seeing with gcc
10).
