"MIPS: Calculate proper ebase value for 64-bit kernels" 9af43ea080dd5d6c7b34f38261780e5dd43537bc (lmo) rsp. f6be75d0 (kernel.org) broke some 64-bit MIPS systems. Before this we were using XKPHYS/cached as ebase and computed the uncached xphsys/unchached address for that area. After that commit ebase became a 32-bit compat address and convert does not work anymore. We now should use CKSEG1 for this. CKSEG1ADDR does just that in 32-bit and 64-bit.

The MIPS implementation of die() forgets to call notify_die() and thus notifiers registered via register_die_notifier() are not called. This results in kgdb not being activated on exceptions. The only subtlety is that notify_die declares its regs argument w/o const, so the const had to be removed from mips die() as well.

The ebase is relative to CKSEG0 not CAC_BASE. On a 32-bit kernel they are the same thing, for a 64-bit kernel they are not. It happens to kind of work on a 64-bit kernel as they both reference the same physical memory. However since the CPU uses the CKSEG0 base, determining if a J instruction will reach always gives the wrong result unless we use the same number the CPU uses.

This is a follow on to the vdso patch. Since all processes now have signal trampolines permanently mapped, we can use those instead of putting the trampoline on the stack and invalidating the corresponding icache across all CPUs. We also get rid of a bunch of ICACHE_REFILLS_WORKAROUND_WAR code. [Ralf: GDB 7.1 which has the necessary modifications to allow backtracing over signal frames will supposedly be released tomorrow. The old signal frame format obsoleted by this patch exists in two variations, for sane processors and for those requiring ICACHE_REFILLS_WORKAROUND_WAR. So there was never a GDB which did support backtracing over signal frames on all MIPS systems. This convinved me this series should be applied and pushed upstream as soon as possible.] Signed-off-by: NDavid Daney <ddaney@caviumnetworks.com> To: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/974/Signed-off-by: NRalf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

This is a preliminary patch to add a vdso to all user processes. Still missing are ELF headers and .eh_frame information. But it is enough to allow us to move signal trampolines off of the stack. Note that emulation of branch delay slots in the FPU emulator still requires the stack. We allocate a single page (the vdso) and write all possible signal trampolines into it. The stack is moved down by one page and the vdso is mapped into this space.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

Add a generic implementation of the ipc demultiplexer syscall. Except for s390 and sparc64 all implementations of the sys_ipc are nearly identical. There are slight differences in the types of the parameters, where mips and powerpc as the only 64-bit architectures with sys_ipc use unsigned long for the "third" argument as it gets casted to a pointer later, while it traditionally is an "int" like most other paramters. frv goes even further and uses unsigned long for all parameters execept for "ptr" which is a pointer type everywhere. The change from int to unsigned long for "third" and back to "int" for the others on frv should be fine due to the in-register calling conventions for syscalls (we already had a similar issue with the generic sys_ptrace), but I'd prefer to have the arch maintainers looks over this in details. Except for that h8300, m68k and m68knommu lack an impplementation of the semtimedop sub call which this patch adds, and various architectures have gets used - at least on i386 it seems superflous as the compat code on x86-64 and ia64 doesn't even bother to implement it.

The MIPS processor is limited to 64 external interrupt sources. Using a greater number without IRQ sharing requires reading platform-specific registers. On such platforms, reading the IntCtl register to determine which interrupt corresponds to a timer interrupt will not work. On MIPSR2 systems there is a solution - the TI bit in the Cause register, specifically indicates that a timer interrupt has occured. This patch uses that bit to detect interrupts for MIPSR2 processors, which may be expected to work regardless of how the timer interrupt may be routed in the hardware.

Currently, MIPS kernels silently overwrite kernel command-line parameters hardcoded in CONFIG_CMDLINE by the ones received from firmware. Therefore, using firmware remains the only reliable method to transfer the command-line parameters, which is not always desirable or convenient, and the CONFIG_CMDLINE option is thereby effectively rendered useless. This patch fixes the problem described above and introduces a more flexible scheme of handling the kernel command line, in a manner identical to what is currently used for x86. The default behavior, i.e. when CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL is not defined, retains the existing semantics, and firmware command-line arguments override the hardcoded ones.

That thread "MIPS: Add option to pass return address location to _mcount" from "David Daney <ddaney@caviumnetworks.com>" have added a new option -mmcount-ra-address to gcc(4.5) for MIPS to transfer the location of the return address to _mcount. Benefit from this new feature, function graph tracer on MIPS will be easier and safer to hijack the return address of the kernel function, which will save some overhead and make the whole thing more reliable. In this patch, at first, try to enable the option -mmcount-ra-address in arch/mips/Makefile with cc-option, if gcc support it, it will be enabled, otherwise, no side effect. and then, we need to support this new option of gcc 4.5 and also support the old gcc versions. with _mcount in the old gcc versions, it's not easy to get the location of return address(tracing: add function graph tracer support for MIPS), so, we do it in a C function: ftrace_get_parent_addr(ftrace.c), but with -mmcount-ra-address, only several instructions need to get what we want, so, I put into asm(mcount.S). and also, as the $12(t0) is used by -mmcount-ra-address for transferring the localtion of return address to _mcount, we need to save it into the stack and restore it when enabled dynamic function tracer, 'Cause we have called "ftrace_call" before "ftrace_graph_caller", which may destroy $12(t0). (Thanks to David for providing that -mcount-ra-address and giving the idea of KBUILD_MCOUNT_RA_ADDRESS, both of them have made the whole thing more beautiful!)
