      MIPS: Fix some missing CONFIG_CPU_MIPSR6 #ifdefs · 4f33f6c5
      由 Huacai Chen 提交于 
      Commit be0c37c9 (MIPS: Rearrange PTE bits into fixed positions.)
defines fixed PTE bits for MIPS R2. Then, commit d7b63141
(MIPS: pgtable-bits: Fix XPA damage to R6 definitions.) adds the MIPS
R6 definitions in the same way as MIPS R2. But some R6 #ifdefs in the
later commit are missing, so in this patch I fix that.

      MIPS: sync-r4k: reduce skew while synchronization · db0dbd57
      由 Huacai Chen 提交于 
      While synchronization, count register will go backwards for the master.
If synchronise_count_master() runs before synchronise_count_slave(),
skew becomes even more. The skew is very harmful for CPU hotplug (CPU0
do synchronization with CPU1, then CPU0 do synchronization with CPU2
and CPU0's count goes backwards, so it will be out of sync with CPU1).

After the commit cf9bfe55 (MIPS: Synchronize MIPS count one
CPU at a time), we needn't evaluate count_reference at the beginning of
synchronise_count_master() any more. Thus, we evaluate the initcount (It
seems like count_reference is redundant) in the 2nd loop. Since we write
the count register in the last loop, we don't need additional barriers
(the existing memory barriers are enough).

Moreover, I think we loop 3 times is enough to get a primed instruction
cache, this can also get less skew than looping 5 times.

Comments are also updated in this patch.

      MIPS: hpet: Choose a safe value for the ETIME check · 5610b125
      由 Huacai Chen 提交于 
      This patch is borrowed from x86 hpet driver and explaind below:

Due to the overly intelligent design of HPETs, we need to workaround
the problem that the compare value which we write is already behind
the actual counter value at the point where the value hits the real
compare register. This happens for two reasons:

1) We read out the counter, add the delta and write the result to the
   compare register. When a NMI hits between the read out and the write
   then the counter can be ahead of the event already.

2) The write to the compare register is delayed by up to two HPET
   cycles in AMD chipsets.

We can work around this by reading back the compare register to make
sure that the written value has hit the hardware. But that is bad
performance wise for the normal case where the event is far enough in
the future.

As we already know that the write can be delayed by up to two cycles
we can avoid the read back of the compare register completely if we
make the decision whether the delta has elapsed already or not based
on the following calculation:

  cmp = event - actual_count;

If cmp is less than 64 HPET clock cycles, then we decide that the event
has happened already and return -ETIME. That covers the above #1 and #2
problems which would cause a wait for HPET wraparound (~306 seconds).

      MIPS: Loongson-3: Fix SMP_ASK_C0COUNT IPI handler · 57548432
      由 Huacai Chen 提交于 
      When Core-0 handle SMP_ASK_C0COUNT IPI, we should make other cores to
see the result as soon as possible (especially when Store-Fill-Buffer
is enabled). Otherwise, C0_Count syncronization makes no sense.

BTW, array is more suitable than per-cpu variable for syncronization,
and there is a corner case should be avoid: C0_Count of Core-0 can be
really 0.

      MIPS: Loongson-3: Improve -march option and move it to Platform · 5188129b
      由 Huacai Chen 提交于 
      If GCC >= 4.9 and Binutils >=2.25, we use -march=loongson3a, otherwise
we use -march=mips64r2, this can slightly improve performance. Besides,
arch/mips/loongson64/Platform is a better location rather than arch/
mips/Makefile.

      由 Huacai Chen 提交于 
      In history, __arch_local_irq_restore() is only used by SMTC. However,
SMTC support has been removed since 3.16, this patch remove the unused
function.

      sparc64: fix FP corruption in user copy functions · a7c5724b
      由 Rob Gardner 提交于 
      Short story: Exception handlers used by some copy_to_user() and
copy_from_user() functions do not diligently clean up floating point
register usage, and this can result in a user process seeing invalid
values in floating point registers. This sometimes makes the process
fail.

Long story: Several cpu-specific (NG4, NG2, U1, U3) memcpy functions
use floating point registers and VIS alignaddr/faligndata to
accelerate data copying when source and dest addresses don't align
well. Linux uses a lazy scheme for saving floating point registers; It
is not done upon entering the kernel since it's a very expensive
operation. Rather, it is done only when needed. If the kernel ends up
not using FP regs during the course of some trap or system call, then
it can return to user space without saving or restoring them.

The various memcpy functions begin their FP code with VISEntry (or a
variation thereof), which saves the FP regs. They conclude their FP
code with VISExit (or a variation) which essentially marks the FP regs
"clean", ie, they contain no unsaved values. fprs.FPRS_FEF is turned
off so that a lazy restore will be triggered when/if the user process
accesses floating point regs again.

The bug is that the user copy variants of memcpy, copy_from_user() and
copy_to_user(), employ an exception handling mechanism to detect faults
when accessing user space addresses, and when this handler is invoked,
an immediate return from the function is forced, and VISExit is not
executed, thus leaving the fprs register in an indeterminate state,
but often with fprs.FPRS_FEF set and one or more dirty bits. This
results in a return to user space with invalid values in the FP regs,
and since fprs.FPRS_FEF is on, no lazy restore occurs.

This bug affects copy_to_user() and copy_from_user() for NG4, NG2,
U3, and U1. All are fixed by using a new exception handler for those
loads and stores that are done during the time between VISEnter and
VISExit.

n.b. In NG4memcpy, the problematic code can be triggered by a copy
size greater than 128 bytes and an unaligned source address.  This bug
is known to be the cause of random user process memory corruptions
while perf is running with the callgraph option (ie, perf record -g).
This occurs because perf uses copy_from_user() to read user stacks,
and may fault when it follows a stack frame pointer off to an
invalid page. Validation checks on the stack address just obscure
the underlying problem.
