    MIPS: DEC/SNI: O32 wrapper stack switching fixes · 824122a3
    Maciej W. Rozycki 提交于
    Commit 231a35d3 [[MIPS] RM: Collected
    changes] broke DECstation support by introducing an incompatible copy of
    arch/mips/dec/prom/call_o32.S in arch/mips/fw/lib/, built unconditionally.
    The copy happens to land earlier of the two among the modules used in the
    link and is therefore chosen for the DECstation rather than the intended
    original.  As a result random kernel data is corrupted because a pointer
    to the "%s" formatted output template is used as a temporary stack pointer
    rather than being passed down to prom_printf.  This also explains why
    prom_printf still works, up to a point -- the next argument is the actual
    string to output so it works just fine as the output template until enough
    kernel data has been corrupted to cause a crash.
    
    This change adjusts the modified wrapper in arch/mips/fw/lib/call_o32.S to
    let callers request no stack switching by passing a null temporary stack
    pointer in $a1, reworks the DECstation callers to work with the updated
    interface and removes the old copy from arch/mips/dec/prom/call_o32.S.  A
    few minor readability adjustments are included as well, most importantly
    O32_SZREG is now used throughout where applicable rather than hardcoded
    multiplies of 4 and $fp is used to access the argument save area as a more
    usual register to operate the stack with rather than $s0.
    
    Finally an update is made to the temporary stack space used by the SNI
    platform to guarantee 8-byte alignment as per o32 requirements.
