xtensa: rename PT_SIZE to PT_KERNEL_SIZE

2022-03-07T20:02:48+00:00

PT_SIZE is used by the xtensa port to designate kernel exception frame
size. In preparation for struct pt_regs size change rename PT_SIZE to
PT_KERNEL_SIZE for clarity and change its definition to always cover
only the kernel exception frame.

xtensa: only build windowed register support code when needed

2021-10-19T05:19:35+00:00

There's no need in window overflow/underflow/alloca exception handlers
or window spill code when neither kernel nor userspace support windowed
registers. Don't build or link it.

xtensa: move _SimulateUserKernelVectorException out of WindowVectors

2021-10-19T05:19:34+00:00

In configurations without window registers support the section
.WindowVectors.text may never be linked.
_SimulateUserKernelVectorException is a common handler for high priority
interrupts, it does not belong in that section anyway. Move it out of
that section and mark it as __XTENSA_HANDLER so it gets bundled with
other vector helpers.

mm: reorder includes after introduction of linux/pgtable.h

2020-06-09T16:39:13+00:00

The replacement of  with  made the include
of the latter in the middle of asm includes.  Fix this up with the aid of
the below script and manual adjustments here and there.

	import sys
	import re

	if len(sys.argv) is not 3:
	    print "USAGE: %s  " % (sys.argv[0])
	    sys.exit(1)

	hdr_to_move="#include " % sys.argv[2]
	moved = False
	in_hdrs = False

	with open(sys.argv[1], "r") as f:
	    lines = f.readlines()
	    for _line in lines:
		line = _line.rstrip('

		if line == hdr_to_move:
		    continue
		if line.startswith("#include

mm: introduce include/linux/pgtable.h

2020-06-09T16:39:13+00:00

The include/linux/pgtable.h is going to be the home of generic page table
manipulation functions.

Start with moving asm-generic/pgtable.h to include/linux/pgtable.h and
make the latter include asm/pgtable.h.

xtensa: move fast exception handlers close to vectors

2020-02-05T05:53:39+00:00

On XIP kernels it makes sense to have exception vectors and fast
exception handlers together (in a fast memory). In addition, with MTD
XIP support both vectors and fast exception handlers must be outside of
the FLASH.

Add section .exception.text and move fast exception handlers to it.
Put it together with vectors when vectors are outside of the .text.

xtensa: use call instead of callx in assembly code

2017-12-10T22:48:52+00:00

Now that xtensa assembly sources are compiled with -mlongcalls let the
assembler and linker relax call instructions into l32r + callx where
needed. This change makes the code cleaner and potentially a bit faster.

xtensa: build kernel with text-section-literals

2017-12-10T22:48:51+00:00

vmlinux.lds.S doesn't do anything special with literals, so instead of
keeping them separate put them into the corresponding text sections.
Drop explicit .literal sections from the vmlinux.lds.S, use standard
section macros. Mark literal pool locations in the assembly sources.
Unfortunately assembler doesn't put literals into .init sections and
external libgcc may still have .literal sections, so sed transformation
to the linker script is still needed.

xtensa: use context structure for debug exceptions

2016-03-11T08:53:32+00:00

With implementation of data breakpoints debug exceptions raised when
PS.EXCM is set need to be handled, e.g. window overflow code can write
to watched userspace address. Currently debug exception handler uses
EXCSAVE and DEPC SRs to save temporary registers, but DEPC may not be
available when PS.EXCM is set and more space will be needed to save
additional state.
Reorganize debug context: create per-CPU structure debug_table instance
and store its address in the EXCSAVE instead of
debug_exception function address. Expand this structure when more save
space is needed.

xtensa: fix secondary core boot in SMP

2015-11-03T14:19:38+00:00

There are multiple factors adding to the issue in different
configurations:

- commit 17290231df16eeee ("xtensa: add fixup for double exception raised
  in window overflow") added function window_overflow_restore_a0_fixup to
  double exception vector overlapping reset vector location of secondary
  processor cores.
- on MMUv2 cores RESET_VECTOR1_VADDR may point to uncached kernel memory
  making code overlapping depend on cache type and size, so that without
  cache or with WT cache reset vector code overwrites double exception
  code, making issue even harder to detect.
- on MMUv3 cores RESET_VECTOR1_VADDR may point to unmapped area, as
  MMUv3 cores change virtual address map to match MMUv2 layout, but
  reset vector virtual address is given for the original MMUv3 mapping.
- physical memory region of the secondary reset vector is not reserved
  in the physical memory map, and thus may be allocated and overwritten
  at arbitrary moment.

Fix it as follows:

- move window_overflow_restore_a0_fixup code to .text section.
- define RESET_VECTOR1_VADDR so that it points to reset vector in the
  cacheable MMUv2 map for cores with MMU.
- reserve reset vector region in the physical memory map. Drop separate
  literal section and build mxhead.S with text section literals.
