This creates new 'thread_fp_state' and 'thread_vr_state' structures to store FP/VSX state (including FPSCR) and Altivec/VSX state (including VSCR), and uses them in the thread_struct. In the thread_fp_state, the FPRs and VSRs are represented as u64 rather than double, since we rarely perform floating-point computations on the values, and this will enable the structures to be used in KVM code as well. Similarly FPSCR is now a u64 rather than a structure of two 32-bit values. This takes the offsets out of the macros such as SAVE_32FPRS, REST_32FPRS, etc. This enables the same macros to be used for normal and transactional state, enabling us to delete the transactional versions of the macros. This also removes the unused do_load_up_fpu and do_load_up_altivec, which were in fact buggy since they didn't create large enough stack frames to account for the fact that load_up_fpu and load_up_altivec are not designed to be called from C and assume that their caller's stack frame is an interrupt frame.

Since 2002, the kernel has not saved VRSAVE on exception entry and restored it on exit; rather, VRSAVE gets context-switched in _switch. This means that when executing in process context in the kernel, the userspace VRSAVE value is live in the VRSAVE register. However, the signal code assumes that current->thread.vrsave holds the current VRSAVE value, which is incorrect. Therefore, this commit changes it to use the actual VRSAVE register instead. (It still uses current->thread.vrsave as a temporary location to store it in, as __get_user and __put_user can only transfer to/from a variable, not an SPR.) This also modifies the transactional memory code to save and restore VRSAVE regardless of whether VMX is enabled in the MSR. This is because accesses to VRSAVE are not controlled by the MSR.VEC bit, but can happen at any time.

Currently we only restore signals which are transactionally suspended but it's possible that the transaction can be restored even when it's active. Most likely this will result in a transactional rollback by the hardware as the transaction will have been doomed by an earlier treclaim. The current code is a legacy of earlier kernel implementations which did software rollback of active transactions in the kernel. That code has now gone but we didn't correctly fix up this part of the signals code which still makes assumptions based on having software rollback. This changes the signal return code to always restore both contexts on 32 bit rt signal return.

Currently we clear out the MSR TM bits on signal return assuming that the signal should never return to an active transaction. This is bogus as the user may do this. It's most likely the transaction will be doomed due to a treclaim but that's a problem for the HW not the kernel. The current code is a legacy of earlier kernel implementations which did software rollback of active transactions in the kernel. That code has now gone but we didn't correctly fix up this part of the signals code which still makes the assumption that it must be returning to a suspended transaction. This pulls out both MSR TM bits from the user supplied context rather than just setting TM suspend. We pull out only the bits needed to ensure the user can't do anything dangerous to the MSR.

Currently sys_sigreturn() is TM unaware. Therefore, if we take a 32 bit signal without SIGINFO (non RT) inside a transaction, on signal return we don't restore the signal frame correctly. This checks if the signal frame being restoring is an active transaction, and if so, it copies the additional state to ptregs so it can be restored.

The MSR TM controls are in the top 32 bits of the MSR hence on 32 bit signals, we stick the top half of the MSR in the checkpointed signal context so that the user can access it. Unfortunately, we don't currently write anything to the checkpointed signal context when coming in a from a non transactional process and hence the top MSR bits can contain junk. This updates the 32 bit signal handling code to always write something to the top MSR bits so that users know if the process is transactional or not and the kernel can use it on signal return.

When in an active transaction that takes a signal, we need to be careful with the stack. It's possible that the stack has moved back up after the tbegin. The obvious case here is when the tbegin is called inside a function that returns before a tend. In this case, the stack is part of the checkpointed transactional memory state. If we write over this non transactionally or in suspend, we are in trouble because if we get a tm abort, the program counter and stack pointer will be back at the tbegin but our in memory stack won't be valid anymore. To avoid this, when taking a signal in an active transaction, we need to use the stack pointer from the checkpointed state, rather than the speculated state. This ensures that the signal context (written tm suspended) will be written below the stack required for the rollback. The transaction is aborted becuase of the treclaim, so any memory written between the tbegin and the signal will be rolled back anyway. For signals taken in non-TM or suspended mode, we use the normal/non-checkpointed stack pointer.

As described in e6fa16ab ("signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is pending in the shared queue. Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0 ("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked") which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code across architectures. In the past some architectures got this code wrong, so using this helper function should stop that from happening again.

On PPC64, put_sigset_t converts a sigset_t to a compat_sigset_t before copying it to userspace. There is a typo in the case that we have 4 words to copy, meaning that we corrupt the compat_sigset_t.

On powerpc64 machines running 32-bit userspace, we can get garbage bits in the stack pointer passed into the kernel. Most places handle this correctly, but the signal handling code uses the passed value directly for allocating signal stack frames. This fixes the issue by introducing a get_clean_sp function that returns a sanitized stack pointer. For 32-bit tasks on a 64-bit kernel, the stack pointer is masked correctly. In all other cases, the stack pointer is simply returned. Additionally, we pass an 'is_32' parameter to get_sigframe now in order to get the properly sanitized stack. The callers are know to be 32 or 64-bit statically. Signed-off-by: NJosh Boyer <jwboyer@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Since VSX support was added, we now have two sizes of ucontext_t; the older, smaller size without the extra VSX state, and the new larger size with the extra VSX state. A program using the sys_swapcontext system call and supplying smaller ucontext_t structures will currently get an EINVAL error if the task has used VSX (e.g. because of calling library code that uses VSX) and the old_ctx argument is non-NULL (i.e. the program is asking for its current context to be saved). Thus the program will start getting EINVAL errors on calls that previously worked. This commit changes this behaviour so that we don't send an EINVAL in this case. It will now return the smaller context but the VSX MSR bit will always be cleared to indicate that the ucontext_t doesn't include the extra VSX state, even if the task has executed VSX instructions. Both 32 and 64 bit cases are updated. [paulus@samba.org - also fix some access_ok() and get_user() calls] Thanks to Ben Herrenschmidt for noticing this problem.

When the ucontext changed to add the VSX context, this broke backwards compatibly on swapcontext. swapcontext only compares the ucontext size passed in from the user to the new kernel ucontext size. This adds a check against the old ucontext size (with VMX but without VSX). It also adds some sanity check for ucontexts without VSX, but where VSX is used according the MSR.

This patch extends the floating point save and restore code to use the VSX load/stores when VSX is available. This will make FP context save/restore marginally slower on FP only code, when VSX is available, as it has to load/store 128bits rather than just 64bits. Mixing FP, VMX and VSX code will get constant architected state. The signals interface is extended to enable access to VSR 0-31 doubleword 1 after discussions with tool chain maintainers. Backward compatibility is maintained. The ptrace interface is also extended to allow access to VSR 0-31 full registers.

The layout of the new VSR registers and how they overlap on top of the legacy FPR and VR registers is: VSR doubleword 0 VSR doubleword 1 ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[0] | FPR[0] | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[1] | FPR[1] | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ... | | | ... | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[30] | FPR[30] | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[31] | FPR[31] | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[32] | VR[0] | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[33] | VR[1] | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ... | | ... | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[62] | VR[30] | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSR[63] | VR[31] | ---------------------------------------------------------------- VSX has 64 128bit registers. The first 32 regs overlap with the FP registers and hence extend them with and additional 64 bits. The second 32 regs overlap with the VMX registers.
