When the toolchain doesn't support MSA we encode MSA instructions explicitly in assembly. Unfortunately we use .word for both MIPS and microMIPS encodings which is wrong, since 32-bit microMIPS instructions are made up from a pair of halfwords. - The most significant halfword always comes first, so for little endian builds the halves will be emitted in the wrong order. - 32-bit alignment isn't guaranteed, so the assembler may insert a 16-bit nop instruction to pad the instruction stream to a 32-bit boundary. Use the new instruction encoding macros to encode microMIPS MSA instructions correctly. Fixes: d96cc3d1 ("MIPS: Add microMIPS MSA support.")

Fix a build regression from commit c9017757 ("MIPS: init upper 64b of vector registers when MSA is first used"): arch/mips/built-in.o: In function `enable_restore_fp_context': traps.c:(.text+0xbb90): undefined reference to `_init_msa_upper' traps.c:(.text+0xbb90): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `_init_msa_upper' traps.c:(.text+0xbef0): undefined reference to `_init_msa_upper' traps.c:(.text+0xbef0): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `_init_msa_upper' to !CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA configurations with older GCC versions, which are unable to figure out that calls to `_init_msa_upper' are indeed dead. Of the many ways to tackle this failure choose the approach we have already taken in `thread_msa_context_live'. [ralf@linux-mips.org: Drop patch segment to junk file.] Signed-off-by: NMaciej W.

Introduce accessor functions allowing the kernel to access arbitrary vector registers using an arbitrary data format. The accessors are implemented in assembly, using macros to avoid massive duplication, in order to make use of the existing support for MSA with & without toolchain support. The accessors will be used in a later patch.

Commit d96cc3d1 "MIPS: Add microMIPS MSA support." attempted to use the value of a macro within an inline asm statement but instead emitted a comment leading to the cfcmsa & ctcmsa instructions being omitted. Fix that by passing CFC_MSA_INSN & CTC_MSA_INSN as arguments to the asm statements.

When a task first makes use of MSA we need to ensure that the upper 64b of the vector registers are set to some value such that no information can be leaked to it from the previous task to use MSA context on the CPU. The architecture formerly specified that these bits would be cleared to 0 when a scalar FP instructions wrote to the aliased FP registers, which would have implicitly handled this as the kernel restored scalar FP context. However more recent versions of the specification now state that the value of the bits in such cases is unpredictable. Initialise them explictly to be sure, and set all the bits to 1 rather than 0 for consistency with the least significant 64b.

This patch adds support for context switching the MSA vector registers. These 128 bit vector registers are aliased with the FP registers - an FP register accesses the least significant bits of the vector register with which it is aliased (ie. the register with the same index). Due to both this & the requirement that the scalar FPU must be 64-bit (FR=1) if enabled at the same time as MSA the kernel will enable MSA & scalar FP at the same time for tasks which use MSA. If we restore the MSA vector context then we might as well enable the scalar FPU since the reason it was left disabled was to allow for lazy FP context restoring - but we just restored the FP context as it's a subset of the vector context. If we restore the FP context and have previously used MSA then we have to restore the whole vector context anyway (see comment in enable_restore_fp_context for details) so similarly we might as well enable MSA. Thus if a task does not use MSA then it will continue to behave as without this patch - the scalar FP context will be saved & restored as usual. But if a task executes an MSA instruction then it will save & restore the vector context forever more.

This patch introduces definitions for the MSA control registers and functions which allow access to both the control & vector registers. If the toolchain being used to build the kernel includes support for MSA then this patch will make use of that support & use MSA instructions directly. However toolchain support for MSA is very new & far from a point where it can be reasonably expected that everyone building the kernel uses a toolchain with support. Thus fallbacks using .word assembler directives are also provided for now as a temporary measure.
