commit c5c38ef3d7 upstream.
The nohz full code needs irq work to trigger its own interrupt so that
the subsystem can work even when the tick is stopped.
Lets introduce arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() that archs can override to
tell about their support for this ability.

In k{un}map_coherent, pagefault_disable and pagefault_enable are called
respectively, but k{un}map_coherent needs preempt disabled according to
commit f8829caee3 ("[MIPS] Fix aliasing bug
in copy_to_user_page / copy_from_user_page") to avoid dcache alias on COW.
k{un}map_coherent are just called when cpu_has_dc_aliases == 1 with VIPT cache.
However, actually, the most modern MIPS processors have PIPT dcache without
dcache alias issue. In such case, k{un}map_atomic will be called with preempt
enabled.
To fix this, we replace pagefault_* to raw version in k{un}map_coherent, which
disables preempt, otherwise the following kernel panic may be caught:

commit 33692f2759 upstream.
The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a
"you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally
handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler.
That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault
handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do
retries etc" - but it generally works. However, there are cases where
the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV.
In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a
SIGSEGV. And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by
that duplicated architecture fault handler.
However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return
from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d45 ("mm: propagate error
from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the
existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space. And user space really
expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS.
To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those
duplicate architecture fault handlers about it. They all already have
the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return
value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying.
This is the mindless minimal patch to do this. A more extensive patch
would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into
one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that
cleanup.
Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just
copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in
the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM
semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other
"newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those
improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about
them too.

commit b3cffac04e upstream.
Currently the guest exit trace event saves the VCPU pointer to the
structure, and the guest PC is retrieved by dereferencing it when the
event is printed rather than directly from the trace record. This isn't
safe as the printing may occur long afterwards, after the PC has changed
and potentially after the VCPU has been freed. Usually this results in
the same (wrong) PC being printed for multiple trace events. It also
isn't portable as userland has no way to access the VCPU data structure
when interpreting the trace record itself.
Lets save the actual PC in the structure so that the correct value is
accessible later.

commit f798217dfd upstream.
The FPU and DSP are enabled via the CP0 Status CU1 and MX bits by
kvm_mips_set_c0_status() on a guest exit, presumably in case there is
active state that needs saving if pre-emption occurs. However neither of
these bits are cleared again when returning to the guest.
This effectively gives the guest access to the FPU/DSP hardware after
the first guest exit even though it is not aware of its presence,
allowing FP instructions in guest user code to intermittently actually
execute instead of trapping into the guest OS for emulation. It will
then read & manipulate the hardware FP registers which technically
belong to the user process (e.g. QEMU), or are stale from another user
process. It can also crash the guest OS by causing an FP exception, for
which a guest exception handler won't have been registered.
First lets save and disable the FPU (and MSA) state with lose_fpu(1)
before entering the guest. This simplifies the problem, especially for
when guest FPU/MSA support is added in the future, and prevents FR=1 FPU
state being live when the FR bit gets cleared for the guest, which
according to the architecture causes the contents of the FPU and vector
registers to become UNPREDICTABLE.
We can then safely remove the enabling of the FPU in
kvm_mips_set_c0_status(), since there should never be any active FPU or
MSA state to save at pre-emption, which should plug the FPU leak.
DSP state is always live rather than being lazily restored, so for that
it is simpler to just clear the MX bit again when re-entering the guest.

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.

If the irq_chip does not define .irq_disable, any call to disable_irq
will defer disabling the IRQ until it fires while marked as disabled.
This assumes that the handler function checks for this condition, which
handle_percpu_irq does not. In this case, calling disable_irq leads to
an IRQ storm, if the interrupt fires while disabled.
This optimization is only useful when disabling the IRQ is slow, which
is not true for the MIPS CPU IRQ.
Disable this optimization by implementing .irq_disable and .irq_enable

commit 9e0f162a36 upstream.
In commit 8393c524a2 (MIPS: tlbex: Fix a missing statement for
HUGETLB), the TLB Refill handler was fixed so that non-OCTEON targets
would work properly with huge pages. The change was incorrect in that
it broke the OCTEON case.
The problem is shown here:
xxx0: df7a0000 ld k0,0(k1)
.
.
.
xxxc0: df610000 ld at,0(k1)
xxxc4: 335a0ff0 andi k0,k0,0xff0
xxxc8: e825ffcd bbit1 at,0x5,0x0
xxxcc: 003ad82d daddu k1,at,k0
.
.
.
In the non-octeon case there is a destructive test for the huge PTE
bit, and then at 0, $k0 is reloaded (that is what the 8393c524a2
patch added).
In the octeon case, we modify k1 in the branch delay slot, but we
never need k0 again, so the new load is not needed, but since k1 is
modified, if we do the load, we load from a garbage location and then
get a nested TLB Refill, which is seen in userspace as either SIGBUS
or SIGSEGV (depending on the garbage).
The real fix is to only do this reloading if it is needed, and never
where it is harmful.

commit 2e5767a273 upstream.
In do_ade(), is_fpu_owner() isn't preempt-safe. For example, when an
unaligned ldc1 is executed, do_cpu() is called and then FPU will be
enabled (and TIF_USEDFPU will be set for the current process). Then,
do_ade() is called because the access is unaligned. If the current
process is preempted at this time, TIF_USEDFPU will be cleard. So when
the process is scheduled again, BUG_ON(!is_fpu_owner()) is triggered.
This small program can trigger this BUG in a preemptible kernel:
int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
double u64[2];
while (1) {
asm volatile (
".set push \n\t"
".set noreorder \n\t"
"ldc1 $f3, 4(%0) \n\t"
".set pop \n\t"
::"r"(u64):
);
}
return 0;
}
V2: Remove the BUG_ON() unconditionally due to Paul's suggestion.

commit b1442d39fa upstream.
If one or more matching FCSR cause & enable bits are set in saved thread
context then when that context is restored the kernel will take an FP
exception. This is of course undesirable and considered an oops, leading
to the kernel writing a backtrace to the console and potentially
rebooting depending upon the configuration. Thus the kernel avoids this
situation by clearing the cause bits of the FCSR register when handling
FP exceptions and after emulating FP instructions.
However the kernel does not prevent userland from setting arbitrary FCSR
cause & enable bits via ptrace, using either the PTRACE_POKEUSR or
PTRACE_SETFPREGS requests. This means userland can trivially cause the
kernel to oops on any system with an FPU. Prevent this from happening
by clearing the cause bits when writing to the saved FCSR context via
ptrace.
This problem appears to exist at least back to the beginning of the git
era in the PTRACE_POKEUSR case.

commit c23b3d1a53 upstream.
Commit 6a9c001b7e ("MIPS: Switch ELF core dumper to use regsets.")
switched the core dumper to use regsets, however the GP regset code
simply makes a direct copy of the kernel's pt_regs, which does not
match the original core dump register layout as defined in asm/reg.h.
Furthermore, the definition of pt_regs can vary with certain Kconfig
variables, therefore the GP regset can never be relied upon to return
registers in the same layout.
Therefore, this patch changes the GP regset to match the original core
dump layout. The layout differs for 32- and 64-bit processes, so
separate implementations of the get/set functions are added for the
32- and 64-bit regsets.

commit e90e6fddc5 upstream.
On 32-bit/O32, pt_regs has a padding area at the beginning into which the
syscall arguments passed via the user stack are copied. 4 arguments
totalling 16 bytes are copied to offset 16 bytes into this area, however
the area is only 24 bytes long. This means the last 2 arguments overwrite
pt_regs->regs[{0,1}].
If a syscall function returns an error, handle_sys stores the original
syscall number in pt_regs->regs[0] for syscall restart. signal.c checks
whether regs[0] is non-zero, if it is it will check whether the syscall
return value is one of the ERESTART* codes to see if it must be
restarted.
Should a syscall be made that results in a non-zero value being copied
off the user stack into regs[0], and then returns a positive (non-error)
value that matches one of the ERESTART* error codes, this can be mistaken
for requiring a syscall restart.
While the possibility for this to occur has always existed, it is made
much more likely to occur by commit 46e12c07b3 ("MIPS: O32 / 32-bit:
Always copy 4 stack arguments."), since now every syscall will copy 4
arguments and overwrite regs[0], rather than just those with 7 or 8
arguments.
Since that commit, booting Debian under a 32-bit MIPS kernel almost
always results in a hang early in boot, due to a wait4 syscall returning
a PID that matches one of the ERESTART* codes, which then causes an
incorrect restart of the syscall.
The problem is fixed by increasing the size of the padding area so that
arguments copied off the stack will not overwrite pt_regs->regs[{0,1}].

set incorrectly allowing one extra loop leading to writes
beyond the MSC ioremap'd space. More precisely, the value of the 'imp'

as a result of which, the 'n' variable was loaded with an incorrect

MSC01_IC_SUP which led to random crashes like the following one:

Currently hugepage migration is available for all archs which support

limits the availability strictly to x86_64 until developers of other

Simply disabling hugepage migration on non-x86_64 archs is not enough to
fix the reported problem where sys_move_pages() hits the BUG_ON() in
follow_page(FOLL_GET), so let's fix this by checking if hugepage

commit 7006e2dfda upstream.
Each MIPS KVM guest has its own copy of the KVM exception vector. This
contains the TLB refill exception handler at offset 0x000, the general
exception handler at offset 0x180, and interrupt exception handlers at
offset 0x200 in case Cause_IV=1. A common handler is copied to offset
0x2000 and offset 0x3000 is used for temporarily storing k1 during entry
from guest.
However the amount of memory allocated for this purpose is calculated as
0x200 rounded up to the next page boundary, which is insufficient if 4KB
pages are in use. This can lead to the common handler at offset 0x2000
being overwritten and infinitely recursive exceptions on the next exit
from the guest.
Increase the minimum size from 0x200 to 0x4000 to cover the full use of
the page.

commit 01f8fa4f01 upstream.
The current implementation of irq_set_affinity() refuses rightfully to
route an interrupt to an offline cpu.
But there is a special case, where this is actually desired. Some of
the ARM SoCs have per cpu timers which require setting the affinity
during cpu startup where the cpu is not yet in the online mask.
If we can't do that, then the local timer interrupt for the about to
become online cpu is routed to some random online cpu.
The developers of the affected machines tried to work around that
issue, but that results in a massive mess in that timer code.
We have a yet unused argument in the set_affinity callbacks of the irq
chips, which I added back then for a similar reason. It was never
required so it got not used. But I'm happy that I never removed it.
That allows us to implement a sane handling of the above scenario. So
the affected SoC drivers can add the required force handling to their
interrupt chip, switch the timer code to irq_force_affinity() and
things just work.
This does not affect any existing user of irq_set_affinity().
Tagged for stable to allow a simple fix of the affected SoC clock
event drivers.

(MIPS: Hibernation: Remove SMP TLB and cacheflushing code.). A cross-
CPU flush is surely unnecessary because all but the local CPU have
already been disabled. But a local flush (at least the TLB flush) is
needed. When we do hibernation on Loongson-3 with an E1000E NIC, it is
very easy to produce a kernel panic (kernel page fault, or unaligned
access). The root cause is E1000E driver use vzalloc_node() to allocate
pages, the stale TLB entries of the booting kernel will be misused by
the resumed target kernel.

commit 1550567936 upstream.
Previously a reserved instruction exception while in guest code would
cause a KVM internal error if kvm_mips_handle_ri() didn't recognise the
instruction (including a RDHWR from an unrecognised hardware register).
However the guest OS should really have the opportunity to catch the
exception so that it can take the appropriate actions such as sending a
SIGILL to the guest user process or emulating the instruction itself.
Therefore in these cases emulate a guest RI exception and only return
EMULATE_FAIL if that fails, being careful to revert the PC first in case
the exception occurred in a branch delay slot in which case the PC will
already point to the branch target.
Also turn the printk messages relating to these cases into kvm_debug
messages so that they aren't usually visible.
This allows crashme to run in the guest without killing the entire VM.

Commit 597ce1723e "MIPS: Support for 64-bit FP with O32 binaries"
introduced support for setting Status.FR=1 for O32 binaries with the
EF_MIPS_FP64 ELF header flag set. Whilst this flag is currently
supported by binutils it does introduce an ABI break within userland.
Objects built with EF_MIPS_FP64 cannot be safely linked with those built
without it since code in either object may assume behaviour specific to
a value of FR.
More recently there has been discussion around avoiding further
fragmentation of the O32 ABI whilst still allowing the use of FR=1 and
features such as MSA which depend upon it. Details of the plan to allow
this are still being worked on, and whilst the kernel will need the
ability to handle FR=1 with O32 tasks it is unclear what else it may
need to provide to a userland which seeks to avoid another ABI break. In
order to prevent the proliferation of userland which may rely upon the
current EF_MIPS_FP64 behaviour this patch marks the kernel support for
it experimental & disables it by default. Under current proposals it is
likely that this support can simply be enabled again later, but possibly
after the introduction of further interfaces with userland and support
for the MIPS R5 UFR feature.
