2017-01-03MIPS: Use Makefile.postlink to insert relocations into vmlinuxMatt Redfearn
When relocatable support for MIPS was merged, there was no support for an architecture to add a postlink step for vmlinux. This meant that only invoking a target within the boot directory, such as uImage, caused the relocations to be inserted into vmlinux. Building just the vmlinux target would result in a relocatable kernel with no relocation information present. Commit fbe6e37dab97 ("kbuild: add arch specific post-link Makefile") recified this situation, so MIPS can now define a postlink step to add relocation information into vmlinux, and remove the additional steps tacked onto boot targets.

2017-01-03MIPS: Calculate microMIPS ra properly when unwinding the stackPaul Burton
get_frame_info() calculates the offset of the return address within a stack frame simply by dividing a the bottom 16 bits of the instruction, treated as a signed integer, by the size of a long. Whilst this works for MIPS32 & MIPS64 ISAs where the sw or sd instructions are used, it's incorrect for microMIPS where encodings differ. The result is that we typically completely fail to unwind the stack on microMIPS. Fix this by adjusting is_ra_save_ins() to calculate the return address offset, and take into account the various different encodings there in the same place as we consider whether an instruction is storing the ra/$31 register. With this we are now able to unwind the stack for kernels targetting the microMIPS ISA, for example we can produce: Call Trace: [<80109e1f>] show_stack+0x63/0x7c [<8011ea17>] __warn+0x9b/0xac [<8011ea45>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x1d/0x20 [<8013fe53>] register_console+0x43/0x314 [<8067c58d>] of_setup_earlycon+0x1dd/0x1ec [<8067f63f>] early_init_dt_scan_chosen_stdout+0xe7/0xf8 [<8066c115>] do_early_param+0x75/0xac [<801302f9>] parse_args+0x1dd/0x308 [<8066c459>] parse_early_options+0x25/0x28 [<8066c48b>] parse_early_param+0x2f/0x38 [<8066e8cf>] setup_arch+0x113/0x488 [<8066c4f3>] start_kernel+0x57/0x328 ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- Whereas previously we only produced: Call Trace: [<80109e1f>] show_stack+0x63/0x7c ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- Signed-off-by: Paul Burton <paul.burton@imgtec.com> Fixes: 34c2f668d0f6 ("MIPS: microMIPS: Add unaligned access support.")

2017-01-03MIPS: Fix get_frame_info() handling of microMIPS function sizePaul Burton
get_frame_info() is meant to iterate over up to the first 128 instructions within a function, but for microMIPS kernels it will not reach that many instructions unless the function is 512 bytes long since we calculate the maximum number of instructions to check by dividing the function length by the 4 byte size of a union mips_instruction. In microMIPS kernels this won't do since instructions are variable length. Fix this by instead checking whether the pointer to the current instruction has reached the end of the function, and use max_insns as a simple constant to check the number of iterations against.

2017-01-03MIPS: Prevent unaligned accesses during stack unwindingPaul Burton
During stack unwinding we call a number of functions to determine what type of instruction we're looking at. The union mips_instruction pointer provided to them may be pointing at a 2 byte, but not 4 byte, aligned address & we thus cannot directly access the 4 byte wide members of the union mips_instruction. To avoid this is_ra_save_ins() copies the required half-words of the microMIPS instruction to a correctly aligned union mips_instruction on the stack, which it can then access safely. The is_jump_ins() & is_sp_move_ins() functions do not correctly perform this temporary copy, and instead attempt to directly dereference 4 byte fields which may be misaligned and lead to an address exception. Fix this by copying the instruction halfwords to a temporary union mips_instruction in get_frame_info() such that we can provide a 4 byte aligned union mips_instruction to the is_*_ins() functions and they do not need to deal with misalignment themselves.

2017-01-03MIPS: Clear ISA bit correctly in get_frame_info()Paul Burton
get_frame_info() can be called in microMIPS kernels with the ISA bit already clear. For example this happens when unwind_stack_by_address() is called because we begin with a PC that has the ISA bit set & subtract the (odd) offset from the preceding symbol (which does not have the ISA bit set). Since get_frame_info() unconditionally subtracts 1 from the PC in microMIPS kernels it incorrectly misaligns the address it then attempts to access code at, leading to an address error exception. Fix this by using msk_isa16_mode() to clear the ISA bit, which allows get_frame_info() to function regardless of whether it is provided with a PC that has the ISA bit set or not.

2017-01-03MIPS: Ensure bss section ends on a long-aligned addressPaul Burton
When clearing the .bss section in kernel_entry we do so using LONG_S instructions, and branch whilst the current write address doesn't equal the end of the .bss section minus the size of a long integer. The .bss section always begins at a long-aligned address and we always increment the write pointer by the size of a long integer - we therefore rely upon the .bss section ending at a long-aligned address. If this is not the case then the long-aligned write address can never be equal to the non-long-aligned end address & we will continue to increment past the end of the .bss section, attempting to zero the rest of memory. Despite this requirement that .bss end at a long-aligned address we pass 0 as the end alignment requirement to the BSS_SECTION macro and thus don't guarantee any particular alignment, allowing us to hit the error condition described above. Fix this by instead passing 8 bytes as the end alignment argument to the BSS_SECTION macro, ensuring that the end of the .bss section is always at least long-aligned.

When enterring interrupt context via handle_int or except_vec_vi, switch to the irq_stack of the current CPU if it is not already in use. The current stack pointer is masked with the thread size and compared to the base or the irq stack. If it does not match then the stack pointer is set to the top of that stack, otherwise this is a nested irq being handled on the irq stack so the stack pointer should be left as it was. The in-use stack pointer is placed in the callee saved register s1. It will be saved to the stack when plat_irq_dispatch is invoked and can be restored once control returns here.

2017-01-03MIPS: Only change $28 to thread_info if coming from user modeMatt Redfearn
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. Signed-off-by: Matt Redfearn <matt.redfearn@imgtec.com> Acked-by: Jason A.

On rbtx4927, this restores the kernel output like: -TX4927 SDRAMC -- - CR0:0000007e00000544 - TR:32800030e +TX4927 SDRAMC -- CR0:0000007e00000544 TR:32800030e and: -PCIC -- PCICLK: -Internal(33.3MHz) - +PCIC -- PCICLK:Internal(33.3MHz) Fixes: 4bcc595ccd80decb ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines") Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Reviewed-by: Atsushi Nemoto <anemo@mba.ocn.ne.jp> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/14646/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

2016-12-11MIPS: Return -ENODEV from weak implementation of rtc_mips_set_timeLuuk Paulussen
The sync_cmos_clock function in kernel/time/ntp.c first tries to update the internal clock of the cpu by calling the "update_persistent_clock64" architecture specific function. If this returns -ENODEV, it then tries to update an external RTC using "rtc_set_ntp_time". On the mips architecture, the weak implementation of the underlying function would return 0 if it wasn't overridden. This meant that the sync_cmos_clock function would never try to update an external RTC (if both CONFIG_GENERIC_CMOS_UPDATE and CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC are configured) Returning -ENODEV instead, means that an external RTC will be tried.

Couple conflicts resolved here: 1) In the MACB driver, a bug fix to properly initialize the RX tail pointer properly overlapped with some changes to support variable sized rings. 2) In XGBE we had a "CONFIG_PM" --> "CONFIG_PM_SLEEP" fix overlapping with a reorganization of the driver to support ACPI, OF, as well as PCI variants of the chip. 3) In 'net' we had several probe error path bug fixes to the stmmac driver, meanwhile a lot of this code was cleaned up and reorganized in 'net-next'. 4) The cls_flower classifier obtained a helper function in 'net-next' called __fl_delete() and this overlapped with Daniel Borkamann's bug fix to use RCU for object destruction in 'net'. It also overlapped with Jiri's change to guard the rhashtable_remove_fast() call with a check against tc_skip_sw(). 5) In mlx4, a revert bug fix in 'net' overlapped with some unrelated changes in 'net-next'. 6) In geneve, a stale header pointer after pskb_expand_head() bug fix in 'net' overlapped with a large reorganization of the same code in 'net-next'.

2016-11-30tcp: SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS option for SO_TIMESTAMPINGFrancis Yan
This patch exports the sender chronograph stats via the socket SO_TIMESTAMPING channel. Currently we can instrument how long a particular application unit of data was queued in TCP by tracking SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SOFTWARE and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SCHED. Having these sender chronograph stats exported simultaneously along with these timestamps allow further breaking down the various sender limitation. For example, a video server can tell if a particular chunk of video on a connection takes a long time to deliver because TCP was experiencing small receive window. It is not possible to tell before this patch without packet traces. To prepare these stats, the user needs to set SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY flags while requesting other SOF_TIMESTAMPING TX timestamps. When the timestamps are available in the error queue, the stats are returned in a separate control message of type SCM_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS, in a list of TLVs (struct nlattr) of types: TCP_NLA_BUSY_TIME, TCP_NLA_RWND_LIMITED, TCP_NLA_SNDBUF_LIMITED. Unit is microsecond.
