If a restartable syscall is called using the indirect o32 syscall
handler - eg: syscall(__NR_waitid, ...), then it is possible for the
incorrect arguments to be passed to the syscall after it has been
restarted. This is because the syscall handler tries to shift all the
registers down one place in pt_regs so that when the syscall is restarted,
the "real" syscall is called instead. Unfortunately it only shifts the
arguments passed in registers, not the arguments on the user stack. This
causes the 4th argument to be duplicated when the syscall is restarted.

Fix by removing all the pt_regs shifting so that the indirect syscall
handler is called again when the syscall is restarted. The comment "some
syscalls like execve get their arguments from struct pt_regs" is long
out of date so this should now be safe.

<content type='text'>
Since commit 669c4092225f ("MIPS: Give __secure_computing() access to
syscall arguments."), upon syscall entry when seccomp is enabled,
syscall_trace_enter() passes a carefully prepared struct seccomp_data
containing syscall arguments to __secure_computing(). Unfortunately it
directly uses mips_get_syscall_arg() and fails to take into account the
indirect O32 system calls (i.e. syscall(2)) which put the system call
number in a0 and have the arguments shifted up by one entry.

We can't just revert that commit as samples/bpf/tracex5 would break
again, so use syscall_get_arguments() which already takes indirect
syscalls into account instead of directly using mips_get_syscall_arg(),
similar to what populate_seccomp_data() does.

This also removes the redundant error checking of the
mips_get_syscall_arg() return value (get_user() already zeroes the
result if an argument from the stack can't be loaded).

<title>MIPS: Fix race on setting and getting cpu_online_mask</title>

<content type='text'>
While testing cpu hoptlug (cpu down and up in loops) on kernel 4.4, it was
observed that occasionally check for cpu online will fail in kernel/cpu.c,
_cpu_up:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/kernel/cpu.c?h=v4.4.79#n485
 518        /* Arch-specific enabling code. */
 519        ret = __cpu_up(cpu, idle);
 520
 521        if (ret != 0)
 522                goto out_notify;
 523        BUG_ON(!cpu_online(cpu));

Reason is race between start_secondary and _cpu_up. cpu_callin_map is set
before cpu_online_mask. In __cpu_up, cpu_callin_map is waited for, but cpu
online mask is not, resulting in race in which secondary processor started
and set cpu_callin_map, but not yet set the online mask,resulting in above
BUG being hit.

Upstream differs in the area. cpu_online check is in bringup_wait_for_ap,
which is after cpu reached AP_ONLINE_IDLE,where secondary passed its start
function. Nonetheless, fix makes start_secondary safe and not depending on
other locks throughout the code. It protects as well against cpu_online
checks put in between sometimes in the future.

Fix this by moving completion after all flags are set.

Correct a commit 515a6393dbac ("MIPS: kernel: proc: Add MIPS R6 support
to /proc/cpuinfo") regression that caused MIPS I systems to show no ISA
levels supported in /proc/cpuinfo, e.g.:

system type		: Digital DECstation 2100/3100
machine			: Unknown
processor		: 0
cpu model		: R3000 V2.0  FPU V2.0
BogoMIPS		: 10.69
wait instruction	: no
microsecond timers	: no
tlb_entries		: 64
extra interrupt vector	: no
hardware watchpoint	: no
isa			:
ASEs implemented	:
shadow register sets	: 1
kscratch registers	: 0
package			: 0
core			: 0
VCED exceptions		: not available
VCEI exceptions		: not available

and similarly exclude `mips1' from the ISA list for any processors below
MIPSr1.  This is because the condition to show `mips1' on has been made
`cpu_has_mips_r1' rather than newly-introduced `cpu_has_mips_1'.  Use
the correct condition then.

<title>MIPS: Traced negative syscalls should return -ENOSYS</title>

If a negative system call number is used when system call tracing is
enabled, syscall_trace_enter() will return that negative system call
number without having written the return value and error flag into the
pt_regs.

The caller then treats it as a cancelled system call and assumes that
the return value and error flag are already written, leaving the
negative system call number in the return register ($v0), and the 4th
system call argument in the error register ($a3).

Add a special case to detect this at the end of syscall_trace_enter(),
to set the return value to error -ENOSYS when this happens.

If a negative system call number is used when system call tracing is
enabled, syscall_trace_enter() will return that negative system call
number without having written the return value and error flag into the
pt_regs.

The caller then treats it as a cancelled system call and assumes that
the return value and error flag are already written, leaving the
negative system call number in the return register ($v0), and the 4th
system call argument in the error register ($a3).

Add a special case to detect this at the end of syscall_trace_enter(),
to set the return value to error -ENOSYS when this happens.

The sys_exit trace event takes a single return value for the system
call, which MIPS passes the value of the $v0 (result) register, however
MIPS returns positive error codes in $v0 with $a3 specifying that $v0
contains an error code. As a result erroring system calls are traced
returning positive error numbers that can't always be distinguished from
success.

Use regs_return_value() to negate the error code if $a3 is set.

<title>MIPS: MIPS16e2: Subdecode extended LWSP/SWSP instructions</title>

<id>f3235d32075137e277a2e4ea0d7cef2b59480f4a</id>
<content type='text'>
Implement extended LWSP/SWSP instruction subdecoding for the purpose of
unaligned GP-relative memory access emulation.

With the introduction of the MIPS16e2 ASE[1] the previously must-be-zero
3-bit field at bits 7..5 of the extended encodings of the instructions
selected with the LWSP and SWSP major opcodes has become a `sel' field,
acting as an opcode extension for additional operations.  In both cases
the `sel' value of 0 has retained the original operation, that is:

	LW	rx, offset(sp)

and:

	SW	rx, offset(sp)

for LWSP and SWSP respectively.  In hardware predating the MIPS16e2 ASE
other values may or may not have been decoded, architecturally yielding
unpredictable results, and in our unaligned memory access emulation we
have treated the 3-bit field as a don't-care, that is effectively making
all the possible encodings of the field alias to the architecturally
defined encoding of 0.

For the non-zero values of the `sel' field the MIPS16e2 ASE has in
particular defined these GP-relative operations:

	LW	rx, offset(gp)		# sel = 1
	LH	rx, offset(gp)		# sel = 2
	LHU	rx, offset(gp)		# sel = 4

and

	SW	rx, offset(gp)		# sel = 1
	SH	rx, offset(gp)		# sel = 2

for LWSP and SWSP respectively, which will trap with an Address Error
exception if the effective address calculated is not naturally-aligned
for the operation requested.  These operations have been selected for
unaligned access emulation, for consistency with the corresponding
regular MIPS and microMIPS operations.

For other non-zero values of the `sel' field the MIPS16e2 ASE has
defined further operations, which however either never trap with an
Address Error exception, such as LWL or GP-relative SB, or are not
supposed to be emulated, such as LL or SC.  These operations have been
selected to exclude from unaligned access emulation, should an Address
Error exception ever happen with them.

Subdecode the `sel' field in unaligned access emulation then for the
extended encodings of the instructions selected with the LWSP and SWSP
major opcodes, whenever support for the MIPS16e2 ASE has been detected
in hardware, and either emulate the operation requested or send SIGBUS
to the originating process, according to the selection described above.
For hardware implementing the MIPS16 ASE, however lacking MIPS16e2 ASE
support retain the original interpretation of the `sel' field.

The effects of this change are illustrated with the following user
program:

$ cat mips16e2-test.c
#include &lt;inttypes.h&gt;
#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;

int main(void)
{
	int64_t scratch[16] = { 0 };
	int32_t *tmp0, *tmp1, *tmp2;
	int i;

	scratch[0] = 0xc8c7c6c5c4c3c2c1;
	scratch[1] = 0xd0cfcecdcccbcac9;

	asm volatile(
		"move	%0, $sp\n\t"
		"move	%1, $gp\n\t"
		"move	$sp, %4\n\t"
		"addiu	%2, %4, 8\n\t"
		"move	$gp, %2\n\t"

		"lw	%2, 2($sp)\n\t"
		"sw	%2, 16(%4)\n\t"
		"lw	%2, 2($gp)\n\t"
		"sw	%2, 24(%4)\n\t"

		"lw	%2, 1($sp)\n\t"
		"sw	%2, 32(%4)\n\t"
		"lh	%2, 1($gp)\n\t"
		"sw	%2, 40(%4)\n\t"

		"lw	%2, 3($sp)\n\t"
		"sw	%2, 48(%4)\n\t"
		"lhu	%2, 3($gp)\n\t"
		"sw	%2, 56(%4)\n\t"

		"lw	%2, 0(%4)\n\t"
		"sw	%2, 66($sp)\n\t"
		"lw	%2, 8(%4)\n\t"
		"sw	%2, 82($gp)\n\t"

		"lw	%2, 0(%4)\n\t"
		"sw	%2, 97($sp)\n\t"
		"lw	%2, 8(%4)\n\t"
		"sh	%2, 113($gp)\n\t"

		"move	$gp, %1\n\t"
		"move	$sp, %0"
		: "=&amp;d" (tmp0), "=&amp;d" (tmp1), "=&amp;d" (tmp2), "=m" (scratch)
		: "d" (scratch));

	for (i = 0; i &lt; sizeof(scratch) / sizeof(*scratch); i += 2)
		printf("%016" PRIx64 "\t%016" PRIx64 "\n",
		       scratch[i], scratch[i + 1]);

	return 0;
}
$

to be compiled with:

$ gcc -mips16 -mips32r2 -Wa,-mmips16e2 -o mips16e2-test mips16e2-test.c
$

With 74Kf hardware, which does not implement the MIPS16e2 ASE, this
program produces the following output:

$ ./mips16e2-test
c8c7c6c5c4c3c2c1        d0cfcecdcccbcac9
00000000c6c5c4c3        00000000c6c5c4c3

000000cccbcac900        0000000000000000
$

regardless of whether the change has been applied or not.

With the change not applied and interAptive MR2 hardware[2], which does
implement the MIPS16e2 ASE, it produces the following output:

$ ./mips16e2-test
c8c7c6c5c4c3c2c1        d0cfcecdcccbcac9
00000000c6c5c4c3        00000000cecdcccb
00000000c5c4c3c2        00000000cdcccbca
00000000c7c6c5c4        00000000cfcecdcc
0000c4c3c2c10000        0000000000000000
0000000000000000        0000cccbcac90000
000000c4c3c2c100        0000000000000000
0000000000000000        000000cccbcac900
$

which shows that for GP-relative operations the correct trapping address
calculated from $gp has been obtained from the CP0 BadVAddr register and
so has data from the source operand, however masking and extension has
not been applied for halfword operations.

With the change applied and interAptive MR2 hardware the program
produces the following output:

$ ./mips16e2-test
c8c7c6c5c4c3c2c1        d0cfcecdcccbcac9
00000000c6c5c4c3        00000000cecdcccb
00000000c5c4c3c2        00000000ffffcbca
00000000c7c6c5c4        000000000000cdcc
0000c4c3c2c10000        0000000000000000
0000000000000000        0000cccbcac90000
000000c4c3c2c100        0000000000000000
0000000000000000        0000000000cac900
$

as expected.

$

which shows that for GP-relative operations the correct trapping address
calculated from $gp has been obtained from the CP0 BadVAddr register and
so has data from the source operand, however masking and extension has
not been applied for halfword operations.

With the change applied and interAptive MR2 hardware the program
produces the following output:

$ ./mips16e2-test
c8c7c6c5c4c3c2c1        d0cfcecdcccbcac9
00000000c6c5c4c3        00000000cecdcccb

$

as expected.
