After adding these, it's clear we have some awkward choices
there. Some valid instructions are prohibited from uprobing
while several invalid ones are allowed.
Hopefully future edits to the good-opcode tables will fix wrong
bits or explain why those bits are not wrong.
No actual code changes.

The major highlight this release is a refactoring of the core to allow
us to run synchronous transfers in the context of the caller when there
is no contention for the bus. This improves performance in the very
common case by eliminating context switches and reducing the number of
hardware setup and teardown operations we need to perform.
Other changes:
- New drivers for DLN-2 USB-SPI adapter and ST SPI controllers.
- A big round of cleanups, performance and feature improvements
for the xilinx driver from Ricardo Ribalda Delgado.
- A wide range of smaller cleanups, fixes and feature improvements
throughout the subsystem.

appended DT blobs exceeding 64K, causing the decompressor fixup code

The if construct was getting hard to read and would be getting even more

Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
Commit e1a5848e33 ("ARM: 7924/1: mm: don't bother with reserved ttbr0
when running with LPAE") removed the use of the reserved TTBR0 value
for LPAE systems, since the ASID is held in the TTBR and can be updated
atomicly with the pgd of the next mm.
Unfortunately, this patch forgot to update flush_context, which
deliberately avoids marking the local active ASID as allocated, since we
used to switch via ASID zero and didn't need to allocate the ASID of
the previous mm. The side-effect of this is that we can allocate the
same ASID to the next mm and, between flushing the local TLB and updating
TTBR0, we can perform speculative TLB fills for userspace nG mappings
using the page table of the previous mm.
The consequence of this is that the next mm can erroneously hit some
mappings of the previous mm. Note that this was made significantly
harder to hit by a391263cd8 ("ARM: 8203/1: mm: try to re-use old ASID
assignments following a rollover") but is still theoretically possible.
This patch fixes the problem by removing the code from flush_context
that forces the allocated ASID to zero for the local CPU. Many thanks
to the Broadcom guys for tracking this one down.

We used to optimize rescheduling and audit on syscall exit. Now
that the full slow path is reasonably fast, remove these
optimizations. Syscall exit auditing is now handled exclusively by
syscall_trace_leave.
This adds something like 10ns to the previously optimized paths on
my computer, presumably due mostly to SAVE_REST / RESTORE_REST.
I think that we should eventually replace both the syscall and
non-paranoid interrupt exit slow paths with a pair of C functions
along the lines of the syscall entry hooks.
Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/22f2aa4a0361707a5cfb1de9d45260b39965dead.1421453410.git.luto@amacapital.net

The x86_64 entry code currently jumps through complex and
inconsistent hoops to try to minimize the impact of syscall exit
work. For a true fast-path syscall, almost nothing needs to be
done, so returning is just a check for exit work and sysret. For a
full slow-path return from a syscall, the C exit hook is invoked if
needed and we join the iret path.
Using iret to return to userspace is very slow, so the entry code
has accumulated various special cases to try to do certain forms of
exit work without invoking iret. This is error-prone, since it
duplicates assembly code paths, and it's dangerous, since sysret
can malfunction in interesting ways if used carelessly. It's
also inefficient, since a lot of useful cases aren't optimized
and therefore force an iret out of a combination of paranoia and
the fact that no one has bothered to write even more asm code
to avoid it.
I would argue that this approach is backwards. Rather than trying
to avoid the iret path, we should instead try to make the iret path
fast. Under a specific set of conditions, iret is unnecessary. In
particular, if RIP==RCX, RFLAGS==R11, RIP is canonical, RF is not
set, and both SS and CS are as expected, then
movq 32(%rsp),%rsp;sysret does the same thing as iret. This set of
conditions is nearly always satisfied on return from syscalls, and
it can even occasionally be satisfied on return from an irq.
Even with the careful checks for sysret applicability, this cuts
nearly 80ns off of the overhead from syscalls with unoptimized exit
work. This includes tracing and context tracking, and any return
that invokes KVM's user return notifier. For example, the cost of
getpid with CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING_FORCE=y drops from ~360ns to
~280ns on my computer.
This may allow the removal and even eventual conversion to C
of a respectable amount of exit asm.
This may require further tweaking to give the full benefit on Xen.
It may be worthwhile to adjust signal delivery and exec to try hit
the sysret path.
This does not optimize returns to 32-bit userspace. Making the same
optimization for CS == __USER32_CS is conceptually straightforward,
but it will require some tedious code to handle the differences
between sysretl and sysexitl.

context_tracking_user_exit() has no effect if in_interrupt() returns true,
so ist_enter() didn't work. Fix it by calling exception_enter(), and thus
context_tracking_user_exit(), before incrementing the preempt count.
This also adds an assertion that will catch the problem reliably if
CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y to help prevent the bug from being reintroduced.

There is a race in the MIPS fork code which allows the child to get a
stale copy of parent MSA/FPU/DSP state that is active in hardware
registers when the fork() is called. This is because copy_thread() saves
the live register state into the child context only if the hardware is
currently in use, apparently on the assumption that the hardware state
cannot have been saved and disabled since the initial duplication of the
task_struct. However preemption is certainly possible during this
window.
An example sequence of events is as follows:
1) The parent userland process puts important data into saved floating
point registers ($f20-$f31), which are then dirty compared to the
process' stored context.
2) The parent process calls fork() which does a clone system call.
3) In the kernel, do_fork() -> copy_process() -> dup_task_struct() ->
arch_dup_task_struct() (which uses the weakly defined default
implementation). This duplicates the parent process' task context,
which includes a stale version of its FP context from when it was
last saved, probably some time before (1).
4) At some point before copy_process() calls copy_thread(), such as when
duplicating the memory map, the process is desceduled. Perhaps it is
preempted asynchronously, or perhaps it sleeps while blocked on a
mutex. The dirty FP state in the FP registers is saved to the parent
process' context and the FPU is disabled.
5) When the process is rescheduled again it continues copying state
until it gets to copy_thread(), which checks whether the FPU is in
use, so that it can copy that dirty state to the child process' task
context. Because of the deschedule however the FPU is not in use, so
the child process' context is left with stale FP context from the
last time the parent saved it (some time before (1)).
6) When the new child process is scheduled it reads the important data
from the saved floating point register, and ends up doing a NULL
pointer dereference as a result of the stale data.
This use of saved floating point registers across function calls can be
triggered fairly easily by explicitly using inline asm with a current
(MIPS R2) compiler, but is far more likely to happen unintentionally
with a MIPS R6 compiler where the FP registers are more likely to get
used as scratch registers for storing non-fp data.
It is easily fixed, in the same way that other architectures do it, by
overriding the implementation of arch_dup_task_struct() to sync the
dirty hardware state to the parent process' task context *prior* to
duplicating it, rather than copying straight to the child process' task
context in copy_thread(). Note, the FPU hardware is not disabled so the
parent process may continue executing with the live register context,
but now the child process is guaranteed to have an identical copy of it
at that point.

The following commits:
5890f70f15 (MIPS: Use dedicated exception handler if CPU supports RI/XI exceptions)
6575b1d417 (MIPS: kernel: cpu-probe: Detect unique RI/XI exceptions)
break the kernel for *all* existing MIPS CPUs that implement the
CP0_PageGrain[IEC] bit. They cause the TLB exception handlers to be
generated without the legacy execute-inhibit handling, but never set
the CP0_PageGrain[IEC] bit to activate the use of dedicated exception
vectors for execute-inhibit exceptions. The result is that upon
detection of an execute-inhibit violation, we loop forever in the TLB
exception handlers instead of sending SIGSEGV to the task.
If we are generating TLB exception handlers expecting separate
vectors, we must also enable the CP0_PageGrain[IEC] feature.
The bug was introduced in kernel version 3.17.

Commit 842dfc11ea ("MIPS: Fix build with binutils 2.24.51+") in v3.18
enabled -msoft-float and sprinkled ".set hardfloat" where necessary to
use FP instructions. However it missed enable_restore_fp_context() which
since v3.17 does a ctc1 with inline assembly, causing the following
assembler errors on Mentor's 2014.05 toolchain:

Fix that to use the new write_32bit_cp1_register() macro so that ".set

The implementation of _read_32bit_cp1_register() .sets mips1 due to
failure of gas v2.19 to assemble cfc1 for Octeon (see commit
25c3000300 ("MIPS: Override assembler target architecture for

Second round of fixes for KVM/ARM for 3.19.
Fixes memory corruption issues on APM platforms and swapping issues on
DMA-coherent systems.
As printk() invocation can cause e.g. a TLB miss, printk() cannot be
called before the exception handlers have been properly initialized.
This can happen e.g. when netconsole has been loaded as a kernel module
and the TLB table has been cleared when a CPU was offline.
Call cpu_report() in start_secondary() only after the exception handlers
have been initialized to fix this.
Without the patch the kernel will randomly either lockup or crash
after a CPU is onlined and the console driver is a module.

When handling a fault in stage-2, we need to resync I$ and D$, just
to be sure we don't leave any old cache line behind.
That's very good, except that we do so using the *user* address.
Under heavy load (swapping like crazy), we may end up in a situation
where the page gets mapped in stage-2 while being unmapped from
userspace by another CPU.
At that point, the DC/IC instructions can generate a fault, which
we handle with kvm->mmu_lock held. The box quickly deadlocks, user
is unhappy.
Instead, perform this invalidation through the kernel mapping,
which is guaranteed to be present. The box is much happier, and so
am I.
