Commit c5b36783 ("MIPS: Add support for XPA.") changed build_pte_present() and build_pte_writable() to assume a constant offset of _PAGE_READ and _PAGE_WRITE relative to _PAGE_PRESENT, however this is no longer true for some MIPS32R2 builds since commit be0c37c9 ("MIPS: Rearrange PTE bits into fixed positions.") which moved the _PAGE_READ PTE bit away from the _PAGE_PRESENT bit, with the _PAGE_WRITE bit falling into its place. Make use of the _PAGE_READ and _PAGE_WRITE definitions to calculate the correct mask to apply instead of hard coding 3 (for _PAGE_PRESENT | _PAGE_READ) or 5 (for _PAGE_PRESENT | _PAGE_WRITE).

Most R3k processor implementations have their 8 first TLB entries fixed as wired, so we always skip them in TLB invalidation. That however means any leftover entries present there at boot will stay throughout the life of the kernel, unless replaced with new ones. So rename `local_flush_tlb_all' to `local_flush_tlb_from' and make it accept the TLB entry to start from. Then use 0 initially at bootstrap, and the first regular entry later on, bypassing any wired entries. Wrap the latter arrangement into a new `local_flush_tlb_all' entry point. There is no need to disable interrupts in the call made from `tlb_init' because it's made before the interrupt subsystem has been initialised; this is also true for secondary processors, should we ever support R3k SMP. So move this piece of code to new `local_flush_tlb_all'. Signed-off-by: NMaciej W.

When an architecture fully supports randomizing the ELF load location, a per-arch mmap_rnd() function is used to find a randomized mmap base. In preparation for randomizing the location of ET_DYN binaries separately from mmap, this renames and exports these functions as arch_mmap_rnd(). Additionally introduces CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE for describing this feature on architectures that support it (which is a superset of ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE, since s390 already supports a separated ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR without the ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE logic).

Fix the 74K D-cache alias erratum workaround so that it actually works. Our current code sets MIPS_CACHE_VTAG for the D-cache, but that flag only has any effect for the I-cache. Additionally MIPS_CACHE_PINDEX is set for the D-cache if CP0.Config7.AR is also set for an affected processor, leading to confusing information in the bootstrap log (the flag isn't used beyond that). So delete the setting of MIPS_CACHE_VTAG and rely on MIPS_CACHE_ALIASES, set in a common place, removing I-cache coherency issues seen in GDB testing with software breakpoints, gdbserver and ptrace(2), on affected systems. While at it add a little piece of explanation of what CP0.Config6.SYND is so that people do not have to chase documentation. Signed-off-by: NMaciej W.

The lazy cache flushing implemented in the MIPS kernel suffers from a race condition that is exposed by do_set_pte() in mm/memory.c. A pre-condition is a file-system that writes to the page from the CPU in its readpage method and then calls flush_dcache_page(). One example is ubifs. Another pre-condition is that the dcache flush is postponed in __flush_dcache_page(). Upon a page fault for an executable mapping not existing in the page-cache, the following will happen: 1. Write to the page 2. flush_dcache_page 3. flush_icache_page 4. set_pte_at 5. update_mmu_cache (commits the flush of a dcache-dirty page) Between steps 4 and 5 another thread can hit the same page and it will encounter a valid pte. Because the data still is in the L1 dcache the CPU will fetch stale data from L2 into the icache and execute garbage. This fix moves the commit of the cache flush to step 3 to close the race window. It also reduces the amount of flushes on non-executable mappings because we never enter __flush_dcache_page() for non-aliasing CPUs. Regressions can occur in drivers that mistakenly relies on the flush_dcache_page() in get_user_pages() for DMA operations.

This patch rearranges the PTE bits into fixed positions for R2 and later cores. In the past, the TLB handling code did runtime checking of RI/XI and adjusted the shifts and rotates in order to fit the largest PFN value into the PTE. The checking now occurs when building the TLB handler, thus eliminating those checks. These new arrangements also define the largest possible PFN value that can fit in the PTE. HUGE page support is only available for 64-bit cores. Layouts of the PTE bits are now: 64-bit, R1 or earlier: CCC D V G [S H] M A W R P 32-bit, R1 or earler: CCC D V G M A W R P 64-bit, R2 or later: CCC D V G RI/R XI [S H] M A W P 32-bit, R2 or later: CCC D V G RI/R XI M A W P [ralf@linux-mips.org: Fix another build error *rant* *rant*] Signed-off-by: NSteven J.

Currently we have many duplicates in definitions around follow_huge_addr(), follow_huge_pmd(), and follow_huge_pud(), so this patch tries to remove the m. The basic idea is to put the default implementation for these functions in mm/hugetlb.c as weak symbols (regardless of CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETL B), and to implement arch-specific code only when the arch needs it. For follow_huge_addr(), only powerpc and ia64 have their own implementation, and in all other architectures this function just returns ERR_PTR(-EINVAL). So this patch sets returning ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) as default. As for follow_huge_(pmd|pud)(), if (pmd|pud)_huge() is implemented to always return 0 in your architecture (like in ia64 or sparc,) it's never called (the callsite is optimized away) no matter how implemented it is. So in such architectures, we don't need arch-specific implementation. In some architecture (like mips, s390 and tile,) their current arch-specific follow_huge_(pmd|pud)() are effectively identical with the common code, so this patch lets these architecture use the common code. One exception is metag, where pmd_huge() could return non-zero but it expects follow_huge_pmd() to always return NULL. This means that we need arch-specific implementation which returns NULL. This behavior looks strange to me (because non-zero pmd_huge() implies that the architecture supports PMD-based hugepage, so follow_huge_pmd() can/should return some relevant value,) but that's beyond this cleanup patch, so let's keep it. Justification of non-trivial changes: - in s390, follow_huge_pmd() checks !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE at first, and this patch removes the check. This is OK because we can assume MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE is true when follow_huge_pmd() can be called (note that pmd_huge() has the same check and always returns 0 for !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE.) - in s390 and mips, we use HPAGE_MASK instead of PMD_MASK as done in common code. This patch forces these archs use PMD_MASK, but it's OK because they are identical in both archs. In s390, both of HPAGE_SHIFT and PMD_SHIFT are 20. In mips, HPAGE_SHIFT is defined as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT - 3) and PMD_SHIFT is define as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT + PTE_ORDER - 3), but PTE_ORDER is always 0, so these are identical.

The following commits: 5890f70f (MIPS: Use dedicated exception handler if CPU supports RI/XI exceptions) 6575b1d4 (MIPS: kernel: cpu-probe: Detect unique RI/XI exceptions) break the kernel for *all* existing MIPS CPUs that implement the CP0_PageGrain[IEC] bit. They cause the TLB exception handlers to be generated without the legacy execute-inhibit handling, but never set the CP0_PageGrain[IEC] bit to activate the use of dedicated exception vectors for execute-inhibit exceptions. The result is that upon detection of an execute-inhibit violation, we loop forever in the TLB exception handlers instead of sending SIGSEGV to the task. If we are generating TLB exception handlers expecting separate vectors, we must also enable the CP0_PageGrain[IEC] feature. The bug was introduced in kernel version 3.17.

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 fee7e49d ("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.

Between the time we hit a TLBL/S/M exception and the time we get to execute the TLBP instruction, the HTW may have replaced the TLB entry we are interested in hence the TLB probe may fail. However, in the existing handlers, we never checked the status of the TLBP (ie check the result in the C0/Index register). We fix this by adding such a check when the core implements the HTW. If we couldn't find a matching entry, we return back and try again.

The microMIPS microassembler is only suitable for configurations where the kernel itself is built to microMIPS machine code and not where only user microMIPS software is supported. The former is controlled with the CPU_MICROMIPS configuration setting, whereas SYS_SUPPORTS_MICROMIPS is used for the latter. Not only that, but with a given microMIPS vs standard MIPS kernel configuration only one microassembler is needed, that matches the ISA selected -- CP0.Config3.ISAOnExc is mandatory on microMIPS processors, so there is never a need to mix microMIPS and standard MIPS code. Consequently build only the microassembler that matches the ISA selected for the kernel. Signed-off-by: NMaciej W.
