[ Upstream commit 906d441feb ]
Some versions of GCC for the MIPS architecture suffer from a bug which
can lead to instructions from beyond an unreachable statement being
incorrectly reordered into earlier branch delay slots if the unreachable
statement is the only content of a case in a switch statement. This can
lead to seemingly random behaviour, such as invalid memory accesses from
incorrectly reordered loads or stores, and link failures on microMIPS
builds.
See this potential GCC fix for details:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-09/msg00360.html
Runtime problems resulting from this bug were initially observed using a
maltasmvp_defconfig v4.4 kernel built using GCC 4.9.2 (from a Codescape
SDK 2015.06-05 toolchain), with the result being an address exception
taken after log messages about the L1 caches (during probe of the L2
cache):
Initmem setup node 0 [mem 0x0000000080000000-0x000000009fffffff]
VPE topology {2,2} total 4
Primary instruction cache 64kB, VIPT, 4-way, linesize 32 bytes.
Primary data cache 64kB, 4-way, PIPT, no aliases, linesize 32 bytes
<AdEL exception here>
This is early enough that the kernel exception vectors are not in use,
so any further output depends upon the bootloader. This is reproducible
in QEMU where no further output occurs - ie. the system hangs here.
Given the nature of the bug it may potentially be hit with differing
symptoms. The bug is known to affect GCC versions as recent as 7.3, and
it is unclear whether GCC 8 fixed it or just happens not to encounter
the bug in the testcase found at the link above due to differing
optimizations.
This bug can be worked around by placing a volatile asm statement, which
GCC is prevented from reordering past, prior to the
__builtin_unreachable call.
That was actually done already for other reasons by commit 173a3efd3e
("bug.h: work around GCC PR82365 in BUG()"), but creates problems for
microMIPS builds due to the lack of a .insn directive. The microMIPS ISA
allows for interlinking with regular MIPS32 code by repurposing bit 0 of
the program counter as an ISA mode bit. To switch modes one changes the
value of this bit in the PC. However typical branch instructions encode
their offsets as multiples of 2-byte instruction halfwords, which means
they cannot change ISA mode - this must be done using either an indirect
branch (a jump-register in MIPS terminology) or a dedicated jalx
instruction. In order to ensure that regular branches don't attempt to
target code in a different ISA which they can't actually switch to, the
linker will check that branch targets are code in the same ISA as the
branch.
Unfortunately our empty asm volatile statements don't qualify as code,
and the link for microMIPS builds fails with errors such as:
arch/mips/mm/dma-default.s:3265: Error: branch to a symbol in another ISA mode
arch/mips/mm/dma-default.s:5027: Error: branch to a symbol in another ISA mode
Resolve this by adding a .insn directive within the asm statement which
declares that what comes next is code. This may or may not be true,
since we don't really know what comes next, but as this code is in an
unreachable path anyway that doesn't matter since we won't execute it.
We do this in asm/compiler.h & select CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_COMPILER_H in
order to have this included by linux/compiler_types.h after
linux/compiler-gcc.h. This will result in asm/compiler.h being included
in all C compilations via the -include linux/compiler_types.h argument
in c_flags, which should be harmless.

commit ea7e0480a4 upstream.
When using the legacy mmap layout, for example triggered using ulimit -s
unlimited, get_unmapped_area() fills memory from bottom to top starting
from a fairly low address near TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE.
This placement is suboptimal if the user application wishes to allocate
large amounts of heap memory using the brk syscall. With the VDSO being
located low in the user's virtual address space, the amount of space
available for access using brk is limited much more than it was prior to
the introduction of the VDSO.
For example:
# ulimit -s unlimited; cat /proc/self/maps
00400000-004ec000 r-xp 00000000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils
004fc000-004fd000 rwxp 000ec000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils
004fd000-0050f000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0
00cc3000-00ce4000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [heap]
2ab96000-2ab98000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar]
2ab98000-2ab99000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso]
2ab99000-2ab9d000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0
...
Resolve this by adjusting STACK_TOP to reserve space for the VDSO &
providing an address hint to get_unmapped_area() causing it to use this
space even when using the legacy mmap layout.
We reserve enough space for the VDSO, plus 1MB or 256MB for 32 bit & 64
bit systems respectively within which we randomize the VDSO base
address. Previously this randomization was taken care of by the mmap
base address randomization performed by arch_mmap_rnd(). The 1MB & 256MB
sizes are somewhat arbitrary but chosen such that we have some
randomization without taking up too much of the user's virtual address
space, which is often in short supply for 32 bit systems.
With this the VDSO is always mapped at a high address, leaving lots of
space for statically linked programs to make use of brk:
# ulimit -s unlimited; cat /proc/self/maps
00400000-004ec000 r-xp 00000000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils

[ Upstream commit cd87668d60 ]
The PCI_OHCI_INT_REG case in pci_ohci_read_reg() contains the following
if statement:
if ((lo & 0x00000f00) == CS5536_USB_INTR)
CS5536_USB_INTR expands to the constant 11, which gives us the following
condition which can never evaluate true:
if ((lo & 0xf00) == 11)
At least when using GCC 8.1.0 this falls foul of the tautoligcal-compare
warning, and since the code is built with the -Werror flag the build
fails.
Fix this by shifting lo right by 8 bits in order to match the
corresponding PCI_OHCI_INT_REG case in pci_ohci_write_reg().

[ Upstream commit c6ea7e9747 ]
Having the zload address at 0x8060.0000 means the size of the
uncompressed kernel cannot be bigger than around 6 MiB, as it is
deflated at address 0x8001.0000.
This limit is too small; a kernel with some built-in drivers and things
like debugfs enabled will already be over 6 MiB in size, and so will
fail to extract properly.
To fix this, we bump the zload address from 0x8060.0000 to 0x8100.0000.
This is fine, as all the boards featuring Ingenic JZ SoCs have at least
32 MiB of RAM, and use u-boot or compatible bootloaders which won't
hardcode the load address but read it from the uImage's header.

commit 0f02cfbc3d upstream.
When a system suffers from dcache aliasing a user program may observe
stale VDSO data from an aliased cache line. Notably this can break the
expectation that clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, ...) is, as its name
suggests, monotonic.
In order to ensure that users observe updates to the VDSO data page as
intended, align the user mappings of the VDSO data page such that their
cache colouring matches that of the virtual address range which the
kernel will use to update the data page - typically its unmapped address
within kseg0.
This ensures that we don't introduce aliasing cache lines for the VDSO
data page, and therefore that userland will observe updates without
requiring cache invalidation.

commit 690d9163bf upstream.
Some versions of GCC suboptimally generate calls to the __multi3()
intrinsic for MIPS64r6 builds, resulting in link failures due to the
missing function:
LD vmlinux.o
MODPOST vmlinux.o
kernel/bpf/verifier.o: In function `kmalloc_array':
include/linux/slab.h:631: undefined reference to `__multi3'
fs/select.o: In function `kmalloc_array':
include/linux/slab.h:631: undefined reference to `__multi3'
...
We already have a workaround for this in which we provide the
instrinsic, but we do so selectively for GCC 7 only. Unfortunately the
issue occurs with older GCC versions too - it has been observed with
both GCC 5.4.0 & GCC 6.4.0.
MIPSr6 support was introduced in GCC 5, so all major GCC versions prior
to GCC 8 are affected and we extend our workaround accordingly to all
MIPS64r6 builds using GCC versions older than GCC 8.

commit a307188689 upstream.
Linux expects that if a CPU modifies a memory location, then that
modification will eventually become visible to other CPUs in the system.
Loongson 3 CPUs include a Store Fill Buffer (SFB) which sits between a
core & its L1 data cache, queueing memory accesses & allowing for faster
forwarding of data from pending stores to younger loads from the core.
Unfortunately the SFB prioritizes loads such that a continuous stream of
loads may cause a pending write to be buffered indefinitely. This is
problematic if we end up with 2 CPUs which each perform a store that the
other polls for - one or both CPUs may end up with their stores buffered
in the SFB, never reaching cache due to the continuous reads from the
poll loop. Such a deadlock condition has been observed whilst running
qspinlock code.
This patch changes the definition of cpu_relax() to smp_mb() for
Loongson-3, forcing a flush of the SFB on SMP systems which will cause
any pending writes to make it as far as the L1 caches where they will
become visible to other CPUs. If the kernel is not compiled for SMP
support, this will expand to a barrier() as before.
This workaround matches that currently implemented for ARM when
CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_754327=y, which was introduced by commit 534be1d5a2
("ARM: 6194/1: change definition of cpu_relax() for ARM11MPCore").
Although the workaround is only required when the Loongson 3 SFB
functionality is enabled, and we only began explicitly enabling that
functionality in v4.7 with commit 1e820da3c9 ("MIPS: Loongson-3:
Introduce CONFIG_LOONGSON3_ENHANCEMENT"), existing or future firmware
may enable the SFB which means we may need the workaround backported to
earlier kernels too.

commit 344ebf0994 upstream.
The VDSO Makefile filters CFLAGS to select a subset which it uses whilst
building the VDSO ELF. One of the flags it allows through is the -march=
flag that selects the architecture/ISA to target.
Unfortunately in cases where CONFIG_CPU_MIPS32_R{1,2}=y and the
toolchain defaults to building for MIPS64, the main MIPS Makefile ends
up using the short-form -<arch> flags in cflags-y. This is because the
calls to cc-option always fail to use the long-form -march=<arch> flag
due to the lack of an -mabi=<abi> flag in KBUILD_CFLAGS at the point
where the cc-option function is executed. The resulting GCC invocation
is something like:
$ mips64-linux-gcc -Werror -march=mips32r2 -c -x c /dev/null -o tmp
cc1: error: '-march=mips32r2' is not compatible with the selected ABI
These short-form -<arch> flags are dropped by the VDSO Makefile's
filtering, and so we attempt to build the VDSO without specifying any
architecture. This results in an attempt to build the VDSO using
whatever the compiler's default architecture is, regardless of whether
that is suitable for the kernel configuration.
One encountered build failure resulting from this mismatch is a
rejection of the sync instruction if the kernel is configured for a
MIPS32 or MIPS64 r1 or r2 target but the toolchain defaults to an older
architecture revision such as MIPS1 which did not include the sync
instruction:

This can be reproduced for example by attempting to build
pistachio_defconfig using Arnd's GCC 8.1.0 mips64 toolchain from
kernel.org:
https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/files/bin/x86_64/8.1.0/x86_64-gcc-8.1.0-nolibc-mips64-linux.tar.xz
Resolve this problem by using the long-form -march=<arch> in all cases,
which makes it through the arch/mips/vdso/Makefile's filtering & is thus
consistently used to build both the kernel proper & the VDSO.
The use of cc-option to prefer the long-form & fall back to the
short-form flags makes no sense since the short-form is just an
abbreviation for the also-supported long-form in all GCC versions that
we support building with. This means there is no case in which we have
to use the short-form -<arch> flags, so we can simply remove them.
The manual redefinition of _MIPS_ISA is removed naturally along with the
use of the short-form flags that it accompanied, and whilst here we
remove the separate assembler ISA selection. I suspect that both of
these were only required due to the mips32 vs mips2 mismatch that was
introduced by commit 59b3e8e9aa ("[MIPS] Makefile crapectomy.") and
fixed but not cleaned up by commit 9200c0b2a0 ("[MIPS] Fix Makefile
bugs for MIPS32/MIPS64 R1 and R2.").
I've marked this for backport as far as v4.4 where the MIPS VDSO was
introduced. In earlier kernels there should be no ill effect to using
the short-form flags.

This reverts commit 2a027b47db ("MIPS: BCM47XX: Enable 74K Core

Enabling ExternalSync caused a regression for BCM4718A1 (used e.g. in
Netgear E3000 and ASUS RT-N16): it simply hangs during PCIe
initialization. It's likely that BCM4717A1 is also affected.
I didn't notice that earlier as the only BCM47XX devices with PCIe I
own are:
1) BCM4706 with 2 x 14e4:4331
2) BCM4706 with 14e4:4360 and 14e4:4331
it appears that BCM4706 is unaffected.
While BCM5300X-ES300-RDS.pdf seems to document that erratum and its
workarounds (according to quotes provided by Tokunori) it seems not even
Broadcom follows them.
According to the provided info Broadcom should define CONF7_ES in their
SDK's mipsinc.h and implement workaround in the si_mips_init(). Checking
both didn't reveal such code. It *could* mean Broadcom also had some
problems with the given workaround.

The MIPS implementation of pci_resource_to_user() introduced in v3.12 by
commit 4c2924b725 ("MIPS: PCI: Use pci_resource_to_user to map pci

byte after the resource, rather than the last byte of the resource.
This results in userland seeing resources as a byte larger than they
actually are, for example a 32 byte BAR will be reported by a tool such
as lspci as being 33 bytes in size:
Region 2: I/O ports at 1000 [disabled] [size=33]
Correct this by subtracting one from the calculated end address,
reporting the correct address to userland.

commit 523402fa91 upstream.
We currently attempt to check whether a physical address range provided
to __ioremap() may be in use by the page allocator by examining the
value of PageReserved for each page in the region - lowmem pages not
marked reserved are presumed to be in use by the page allocator, and
requests to ioremap them fail.
The way we check this has been broken since commit 92923ca3aa ("mm:
meminit: only set page reserved in the memblock region"), because
memblock will typically not have any knowledge of non-RAM pages and
therefore those pages will not have the PageReserved flag set. Thus when
we attempt to ioremap a region outside of RAM we incorrectly fail
believing that the region is RAM that may be in use.
In most cases ioremap() on MIPS will take a fast-path to use the
unmapped kseg1 or xkphys virtual address spaces and never hit this path,
so the only way to hit it is for a MIPS32 system to attempt to ioremap()
an address range in lowmem with flags other than _CACHE_UNCACHED.
Perhaps the most straightforward way to do this is using
ioremap_uncached_accelerated(), which is how the problem was discovered.
Fix this by making use of walk_system_ram_range() to test the address
range provided to __ioremap() against only RAM pages, rather than all
lowmem pages. This means that if we have a lowmem I/O region, which is
very common for MIPS systems, we're free to ioremap() address ranges
within it. A nice bonus is that the test is no longer limited to lowmem.
The approach here matches the way x86 performed the same test after
commit c81c8a1eee ("x86, ioremap: Speed up check for RAM pages") until
x86 moved towards a slightly more complicated check using walk_mem_res()
for unrelated reasons with commit 0e4c12b45a ("x86/mm, resource: Use
PAGE_KERNEL protection for ioremap of memory pages").

commit b63e132b64 upstream.
The current MIPS implementation of arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() is
broken because it attempts to use synchronous IPIs despite the fact that
it may be run with interrupts disabled.
This means that when arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() is invoked, for
example by the RCU CPU stall watchdog, we may:
- Deadlock due to use of synchronous IPIs with interrupts disabled,
causing the CPU that's attempting to generate the backtrace output
to hang itself.
- Not succeed in generating the desired output from remote CPUs.
- Produce warnings about this from smp_call_function_many(), for

[42760.945311] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1216 at kernel/smp.c:291 smp_call_function_single+0xee/0xf8
...
This patch switches MIPS' arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() to use async
IPIs & smp_call_function_single_async() in order to resolve this
problem. We ensure use of the pre-allocated call_single_data_t
structures is serialized by maintaining a cpumask indicating that
they're busy, and refusing to attempt to send an IPI when a CPU's bit is
set in this mask. This should only happen if a CPU hasn't responded to a
previous backtrace IPI - ie. if it's hung - and we print a warning to
the console in this case.
I've marked this for stable branches as far back as v4.9, to which it
applies cleanly. Strictly speaking the faulty MIPS implementation can be
traced further back to commit 856839b768 ("MIPS: Add
arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() function") in v3.19, but kernel
versions v3.19 through v4.8 will require further work to backport due to
the rework performed in commit 9a01c3ed5c ("nmi_backtrace: add more
trigger_*_cpu_backtrace() methods").

commit 5a267832c2 upstream.
The generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() function calls show_regs() when a struct
pt_regs is available, and dump_stack() otherwise. If we were to make use
of the generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() with MIPS' current implementation of
show_regs() this would mean that we see only register data with no
accompanying stack information, in contrast with our current
implementation which calls dump_stack() regardless of whether register
state is available.
In preparation for making use of the generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() to
implement arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace(), have our implementation of
show_regs() call dump_stack() and drop the explicit dump_stack() call in
arch_dump_stack() which is invoked by arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace().
This will allow the output we produce to remain the same after a later
patch switches to using nmi_cpu_backtrace(). It may mean that we produce
extra stack output in other uses of show_regs(), but this:
1) Seems harmless.
2) Is good for consistency between arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace()
and other users of show_regs().
3) Matches the behaviour of the ARM & PowerPC architectures.
Marked for stable back to v4.9 as a prerequisite of the following patch
"MIPS: Call dump_stack() from show_regs()".

The erratum and workaround are described by BCM5300X-ES300-RDS.pdf as
below.
R10: PCIe Transactions Periodically Fail
Description: The BCM5300X PCIe does not maintain transaction ordering.
This may cause PCIe transaction failure.
Fix Comment: Add a dummy PCIe configuration read after a PCIe
configuration write to ensure PCIe configuration access
ordering. Set ES bit of CP0 configu7 register to enable
sync function so that the sync instruction is functional.
Resolution: hndpci.c: extpci_write_config()
hndmips.c: si_mips_init()
mipsinc.h CONF7_ES
This is fixed by the CFE MIPS bcmsi chipset driver also for BCM47XX.
Also the dummy PCIe configuration read is already implemented in the
Linux BCMA driver.
Enable ExternalSync in Config7 when CONFIG_BCMA_DRIVER_PCI_HOSTMODE=y
too so that the sync instruction is externalised.

throughout our code that TIF_HYBRID_FPREGS and TIF_32BIT_FPREGS cannot
be set both at once for a task, leading to inconsistent behaviour if
this does happen.
Return unsuccessfully then from prctl(2) PR_SET_FP_MODE calls requesting

modes allowed by `mips_set_personality_fp'.

commit 55a2aa08b3 upstream.
When DMA will be performed to a MIPS32 1004K CPS, the L1-cache for the
range needs to be flushed and invalidated first.
The code currently takes one of two approaches.
1/ If the range is less than the size of the dcache, then HIT type
requests flush/invalidate cache lines for the particular addresses.
HIT-type requests a globalised by the CPS so this is safe on SMP.
2/ If the range is larger than the size of dcache, then INDEX type
requests flush/invalidate the whole cache. INDEX type requests affect
the local cache only. CPS does not propagate them in any way. So this
invalidation is not safe on SMP CPS systems.
Data corruption due to '2' can quite easily be demonstrated by
repeatedly "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" and then sha1sum a file
that is several times the size of available memory. Dropping caches
means that large contiguous extents (large than dcache) are more likely.
This was not a problem before Linux-4.8 because option 2 was never used
if CONFIG_MIPS_CPS was defined. The commit which removed that apparently
didn't appreciate the full consequence of the change.
We could, in theory, globalize the INDEX based flush by sending an IPI
to other cores. These cache invalidation routines can be called with
interrupts disabled and synchronous IPI require interrupts to be
enabled. Asynchronous IPI may not trigger writeback soon enough. So we
cannot use IPI in practice.
We can already test if IPI would be needed for an INDEX operation with
r4k_op_needs_ipi(R4K_INDEX). If this is true then we mustn't try the
INDEX approach as we cannot use IPI. If this is false (e.g. when there
is only one core and hence one L1 cache) then it is safe to use the
INDEX approach without IPI.
This patch avoids options 2 if r4k_op_needs_ipi(R4K_INDEX), and so
eliminates the corruption.

[ Upstream commit 7bf8b16d1b ]
The GIC supports running in External Interrupt Controller (EIC) mode,
and will signal this via cpu_has_veic if enabled in hardware. Currently
the generic kernel will panic if cpu_has_veic is set - but the GIC can
legitimately set this flag if either configured to boot in EIC mode, or
if the GIC driver enables this mode. Make the kernel not panic in this
case, and instead just check if the GIC is present. If so, use it's CPU
local interrupt routing functions. If an EIC is present, but it is not
the GIC, then the kernel does not know how to get the VIRQ for the CPU
local interrupts and should panic. Support for alternative EICs being
present is needed here for the generic kernel to support them.

commit c96eebf076 upstream.
The label .Llast_fixup\@ is jumped to on page fault within the final
byte set loop of memset (on < MIPSR6 architectures). For some reason, in
this fault handler, the v1 register is randomly set to a2 & STORMASK.
This clobbers v1 for the calling function. This can be observed with the
following test code:
static int __init __attribute__((optimize("O0"))) test_clear_user(void)
{
register int t asm("v1");
char *test;
int j, k;
pr_info("\n\n\nTesting clear_user\n");
test = vmalloc(PAGE_SIZE);
for (j = 256; j < 512; j++) {
t = 0xa5a5a5a5;
if ((k = clear_user(test + PAGE_SIZE - 256, j)) != j - 256) {
pr_err("clear_user (%px %d) returned %d\n", test + PAGE_SIZE - 256, j, k);
}
if (t != 0xa5a5a5a5) {
pr_err("v1 was clobbered to 0x%x!\n", t);
}
}
return 0;
}
late_initcall(test_clear_user);
Which demonstrates that v1 is indeed clobbered (MIPS64):
Testing clear_user
v1 was clobbered to 0x1!
v1 was clobbered to 0x2!
v1 was clobbered to 0x3!
v1 was clobbered to 0x4!
v1 was clobbered to 0x5!
v1 was clobbered to 0x6!
v1 was clobbered to 0x7!
Since the number of bytes that could not be set is already contained in
a2, the andi placing a value in v1 is not necessary and actively
harmful in clobbering v1.

commit daf70d89f8 upstream.
The __clear_user function is defined to return the number of bytes that
could not be cleared. From the underlying memset / bzero implementation
this means setting register a2 to that number on return. Currently if a
page fault is triggered within the memset_partial block, the value
loaded into a2 on return is meaningless.
The label .Lpartial_fixup\@ is jumped to on page fault. In order to work
out how many bytes failed to copy, the exception handler should find how
many bytes left in the partial block (andi a2, STORMASK), add that to
the partial block end address (a2), and subtract the faulting address to
get the remainder. Currently it incorrectly subtracts the partial block
start address (t1), which has additionally been clobbered to generate a
jump target in memset_partial. Fix this by adding the block end address
instead.
This issue was found with the following test code:
int j, k;
for (j = 0; j < 512; j++) {
if ((k = clear_user(NULL, j)) != j) {
pr_err("clear_user (NULL %d) returned %d\n", j, k);
}
}
Which now passes on Creator Ci40 (MIPS32) and Cavium Octeon II (MIPS64).

commit 8a8158c85e upstream.
The MIPS kernel memset / bzero implementation includes a small_memset
branch which is used when the region to be set is smaller than a long (4
bytes on 32bit, 8 bytes on 64bit). The current small_memset
implementation uses a simple store byte loop to write the destination.
There are 2 issues with this implementation:
1. When EVA mode is active, user and kernel address spaces may overlap.
Currently the use of the sb instruction means kernel mode addressing is
always used and an intended write to userspace may actually overwrite
some critical kernel data.
2. If the write triggers a page fault, for example by calling
__clear_user(NULL, 2), instead of gracefully handling the fault, an OOPS
is triggered.
Fix these issues by replacing the sb instruction with the EX() macro,
which will emit EVA compatible instuctions as required. Additionally
implement a fault fixup for small_memset which sets a2 to the number of
bytes that could not be cleared (as defined by __clear_user).
