commit 510d86362a27577f5ee23f46cfb354ad49731e61 upstream.

The SAVE_SOME macro is used to save the execution context on all
exceptions.
If an exception occurs while executing user code, the stack is switched
to the kernel's stack for the current task, and register $28 is switched
to point to the current_thread_info, which is at the bottom of the stack
region.
If the exception occurs while executing kernel code, the stack is left,
and this change ensures that register $28 is not updated. This is the
correct behaviour when the kernel can be executing on the separate irq
stack, because the thread_info will not be at the base of it.

With this change, register $28 is only switched to it's kernel
conventional usage of the currrent thread info pointer at the point at
which execution enters kernel space. Doing it on every exception was
redundant, but OK without an IRQ stack, but will be erroneous once that
is introduced.

commit fe8bd18ffea5327344d4ec2bf11f47951212abd0 upstream.

Allocate a per-cpu irq stack for use within interrupt handlers.

Also add a utility function on_irq_stack to determine if a given stack
pointer is within the irq stack for that cpu.

commit 4b5347a24a0f2d3272032c120664b484478455de upstream.

When building for microMIPS we need to ensure that the assembler always
knows that there is code at the target of a branch or jump. Recent
toolchains will fail to link a microMIPS kernel when this isn't the case
due to what it thinks is a branch to non-microMIPS code.

mips-mti-linux-gnu-ld kernel/built-in.o: .spinlock.text+0x2fc: Unsupported branch between ISA modes.
mips-mti-linux-gnu-ld final link failed: Bad value

This is due to inline assembly labels in spinlock.h not being followed
by an instruction mnemonic, either due to a .subsection pseudo-op or the
end of the inline asm block.

Fix this with a .insn direction after such labels.

<title>MIPS: VDSO: avoid duplicate CAC_BASE definition</title>

commit 1742ac265046f34223e06d5d283496f0291be259 upstream.

vdso.h includes &lt;spaces.h&gt; implicitly after defining CONFIG_32BITS.
This defeats the override in mach-ip27/spaces.h, leading to
a build error that shows up in kernelci.org:

In file included from arch/mips/include/asm/mach-ip27/spaces.h:29:0,
                 from arch/mips/include/asm/page.h:12,
                 from arch/mips/vdso/vdso.h:26,
                 from arch/mips/vdso/gettimeofday.c:11:
arch/mips/include/asm/mach-generic/spaces.h:28:0: error: "CAC_BASE" redefined [-Werror]
 #define CAC_BASE  _AC(0x80000000, UL)

An earlier patch tried to make the second definition conditional,
but that patch had the #ifdef in the wrong place, and would lead
to another warning:

arch/mips/include/asm/io.h: In function 'phys_to_virt':
arch/mips/include/asm/io.h:138:9: error: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Werror=int-to-pointer-cast]

For all I can tell, there is no other reason than vdso32 to ever
include this file with CONFIG_32BITS set, and the vdso itself should
never refer to the base addresses as it is running in user space,
so adding an #ifdef here is safe.

<title>MIPS: Mask out limit field when calculating wired entry count</title>

<id>1031398035a25e5c90c66befb6ff41fa4746df98</id>
<content type='text'>
Since MIPSr6 the Wired register is split into 2 fields, with the upper
16 bits of the register indicating a limit on the value that the wired
entry count in the bottom 16 bits of the register can take. This means
that simply reading the wired register doesn't get us a valid TLB entry
index any longer, and we instead need to retrieve only the lower 16 bits
of the register. Introduce a new num_wired_entries() function which does
this on MIPSr6 or higher and simply returns the value of the wired
register on older architecture revisions, and make use of it when
reading the number of wired entries.

Since commit e710d6668309 ("MIPS: tlb-r4k: If there are wired entries,
don't use TLBINVF") we have been using a non-zero number of wired
entries to determine whether we should avoid use of the tlbinvf
instruction (which would invalidate wired entries) and instead loop over
TLB entries in local_flush_tlb_all(). This loop begins with the number
of wired entries, or before this patch some large bogus TLB index on
MIPSr6 systems. Thus since the aforementioned commit some MIPSr6 systems
with FTLBs have been prone to leaving stale address translations in the
FTLB &amp; crashing in various weird &amp; wonderful ways when we later observe
the wrong memory.

<title>MIPS: Fix FCSR Cause bit handling for correct SIGFPE issue</title>

Sanitize FCSR Cause bit handling, following a trail of past attempts:

* commit 4249548454f7 ("MIPS: ptrace: Fix FP context restoration FCSR
regression"),

* commit 443c44032a54 ("MIPS: Always clear FCSR cause bits after
emulation"),

* commit 64bedffe4968 ("MIPS: Clear [MSA]FPE CSR.Cause after
notify_die()"),

* commit b1442d39fac2 ("MIPS: Prevent user from setting FCSR cause
bits"),

* commit b54d2901517d ("Properly handle branch delay slots in connection
with signals.").

Specifically do not mask these bits out in ptrace(2) processing and send
a SIGFPE signal instead whenever a matching pair of an FCSR Cause and
Enable bit is seen as execution of an affected context is about to
resume.  Only then clear Cause bits, and even then do not clear any bits
that are set but masked with the respective Enable bits.  Adjust Cause
bit clearing throughout code likewise, except within the FPU emulator
proper where they are set according to IEEE 754 exceptions raised as the
operation emulated executed.  Do so so that any IEEE 754 exceptions
subject to their default handling are recorded like with operations
executed by FPU hardware.

<title>KVM: MIPS: Precalculate MMIO load resume PC</title>

<id>e1e575f6b026734be3b1f075e780e91ab08ca541</id>
<content type='text'>
The advancing of the PC when completing an MMIO load is done before
re-entering the guest, i.e. before restoring the guest ASID. However if
the load is in a branch delay slot it may need to access guest code to
read the prior branch instruction. This isn't safe in TLB mapped code at
the moment, nor in the future when we'll access unmapped guest segments
using direct user accessors too, as it could read the branch from host
user memory instead.

Therefore calculate the resume PC in advance while we're still in the
right context and save it in the new vcpu-&gt;arch.io_pc (replacing the no
longer needed vcpu-&gt;arch.pending_load_cause), and restore it on MMIO
completion.
