commit 92b59929825d67db575043a76651865d16873b36 upstream.
If the value which should be moved into a space register is zero, we can
optimize the inline assembly to become "mtsp %r0,%srX".

commit e8d8fc219f9a0e63e7fb927881e6f4db8e7d34df upstream.
I still see the occasional random segv on rp3440. Looking at one of
these (a code 15), it appeared the problem must be with the cache
handling of anonymous pages. Reviewing this, I noticed that the space
register %sr1 might be being clobbered when we flush an anonymous page.
Register %sr1 is used for TLB purges in a couple of places. These
purges are needed on PA8800 and PA8900 processors to ensure cache
consistency of flushed cache lines.
The solution here is simply to move the %sr1 load into the TLB lock
region needed to ensure that one purge executes at a time on SMP
systems. This was already the case for one use. After a few days of
operation, I haven't had a random segv on my rp3440.

Reason for this crash is a gcc miscompilation in the fault handlers of
pa_memcpy() which return the fault address instead of the copied bytes.
Since this seems to be a generic problem with gcc-4.7.x (and below), it's
better to simplify the fault handlers in pa_memcpy to avoid this problem.
Here is a simple reproducer for the problem:
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int fd, nbytes;
struct iovec wr_iovec[] = {
{ "TEST STRING ",32},
{ (char*)0x40005000,32} }; // random memory.
fd = open(DATA_FILE, O_RDWR | O_CREAT, 0666);
nbytes = writev(fd, wr_iovec, 2);
printf("return value = %d, errno %d (%s)\n",
nbytes, errno, strerror(errno));
return 0;
}
In addition, John David Anglin wrote:
There is no gcc PR as pa_memcpy is not legitimate C code. There is an
implicit assumption that certain variables will contain correct values
when an exception occurs and the code randomly jumps to one of the
exception blocks. There is no guarantee of this. If a PR was filed, it
would likely be marked as invalid.

Make sure that we really return -1 (instead of 0x00ff) as node id for
page frame numbers which are not physically available.
This finally fixes the kernel panic when running
cat /proc/kpageflags /proc/kpagecount.
Theoretically this patch now limits the number of physical memory ranges
to 127 instead of 254, but currently we have MAX_PHYSMEM_RANGES
hardcoded to 8 which is sufficient for all existing parisc machines.

'path.bc[i]' can be asigned by PCI_SLOT() which can '> 10', so sizeof(6
* "%u:" + "%u" + '\0') may be 21.
Since 'name' length is 20, it may be memory overflow.
And 'path.bc[i]' is 'unsigned char' for printing, we can be sure the
max length of 'name' must be less than 28.
So simplify thinking, we can use 28 instead of 20 directly, and do not
think of whether 'patchc.bc[i]' can '> 100'.

The logic to detect if the irq stack was already in use with
raw_spin_trylock() is wrong, because it will generate a "trylock failure
on UP" error message with CONFIG_SMP=n and CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y.
arch_spin_trylock() can't be used either since in the CONFIG_SMP=n case
no atomic protection is given and we are reentrant here. A mutex didn't
worked either and brings more overhead by turning off interrupts.
So, let's use the fastest path for parisc which is the ldcw instruction.
Counting how often the irq stack was used is pretty useless, so just
drop this piece of code.

The get_stack_use_cr30 and get_stack_use_r30 macros allocate a stack
frame for external interrupts and interruptions requiring a stack frame.
They are currently not reentrant in that they save register context
before the stack is set or adjusted.
I have observed a number of system crashes where there was clear
evidence of stack corruption during interrupt processing, and as a
result register corruption. Some interruptions can still occur during
interruption processing, however external interrupts are disabled and
data TLB misses don't occur for absolute accesses. So, it's not entirely
clear what triggers this issue. Also, if an interruption occurs when
Q=0, it is generally not possible to recover as the shadowed registers
are not copied.
The attached patch reworks the get_stack_use_cr30 and get_stack_use_r30
macros to allocate stack before doing register saves. The new code is a
couple of instructions shorter than the old implementation. Thus, it's
an improvement even if it doesn't fully resolve the stack corruption
issue. Based on limited testing, it improves SMP system stability.

Currently, race conditions exist in the handling of TLB interruptions in
entry.S. In particular, dirty bit updates can be lost if an accessed
interruption occurs just after the dirty bit interruption on a different
cpu. Lost dirty bit updates result in user pages not being flushed and
general system instability. This change adds lock and unlock macros to
synchronize all PTE and TLB updates done in entry.S. As a result,
userspace stability is significantly improved.

This patch fixes few build issues which were introduced with the last
irq stack patch, e.g. the combination of stack overflow check and irq
stack.
Furthermore we now do proper locking and change the irq bh handler
to use the irq stack as well.
In /proc/interrupts one now can monitor how huge the irq stack has grown
and how often it was preferred over the kernel stack.
IRQ stacks are now enabled by default just to make sure that we not
overflow the kernel stack by accident.

Default kernel stack size on parisc is 16k. During tests we found that the
kernel stack can easily grow beyond 13k, which leaves 3k left for irq
processing.
This patch adds the possibility to activate an additional stack of 16k per CPU
which is being used during irq processing. This implementation does not yet
uses this irq stack for the irq bh handler.

David Anglin.

Add the CONFIG_DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW config option to enable checks to
detect kernel stack overflows.
Stack overflows can not be detected reliable since we do not want to
introduce too much overhead.
Instead, during irq processing in do_cpu_irq_mask() we check kernel
stack usage of the interrupted kernel process. Kernel threads can be
easily detected by checking the value of space register 7 (sr7) which
is zero when running inside the kernel.
Since THREAD_SIZE is 16k and PAGE_SIZE is 4k, reduce the alignment of
the init thread to the lower value (PAGE_SIZE) in the kernel
vmlinux.ld.S linker script.

when returning to userspace
Helge and I have found that we have a kernel stack overflow problem
which causes a variety of random failures.
Currently, we re-enable interrupts when returning from an external
interrupt incase we need to schedule or delivery
signals. As a result, a potentially unlimited number of interrupts
can occur while we are running on the kernel
stack. It is very limited in space (currently, 16k). This change
defers enabling interrupts until we have
actually decided to schedule or delivery signals. This only occurs
when we about to return to userspace. This
limits the number of interrupts on the kernel stack to one. In other
cases, interrupts remain disabled until the
final return from interrupt (rfi).

This patch fixes partly PAGE_SIZEs of 16K or 64K by adjusting the
assembler PTE lookup code and the assembler TEMPALIAS code. Furthermore
some data alignments for PAGE_SIZE have been limited to 4K (or less) to
not waste too much memory with greater page sizes. As a side note, the
palo loader can (currently) only handle up to 10 ELF segments which is
fixed with tighter aligning as well.
My testings indicated that the ldci command in the sba iommu coding
needed adjustment by the PAGE_SHIFT value and that the I/O PDIR Page
size was only set to 4K for my machine (C3000).
All this fixes partly the boot, but there are still quite some caching
problems left. Examples are e.g. the symbios logic driver which is
failing:
sym0: <896> rev 0x7 at pci 0000:00:0f.0 irq 69
sym0: PA-RISC Firmware, ID 7, Fast-40, SE, parity checking
CACHE TEST FAILED: DMA error (dstat=0x81).sym0: CACHE INCORRECTLY CONFIGURED.
and the tulip network driver which doesn't seem to work correctly
either:
Sending BOOTP requests .net eth0: Setting full-duplex based on MII#1
link partner capability of 05e1
..... timed out!
Beside those kernel fixes glibc will need fixes too to be able to handle
>4K page sizes.

The help text for this config is duplicated across the x86, parisc, and
s390 Kconfig.debug files. Arnd Bergman noted that the help text was
slightly misleading and should be fixed to state that enabling this
option isn't a problem when using pre 4.4 gcc.
To simplify the rewording, consolidate the text into lib/Kconfig.debug
and modify it there to be more explicit about when you should say N to
this config.
Also, make the text a bit more generic by stating that this option
enables compile time checks so we can cover architectures which emit
warnings vs. ones which emit errors. The details of how an
architecture decided to implement the checks isn't as important as the
concept of compile time checking of copy_from_user() calls.
While we're doing this, remove all the copy_from_user_overflow() code
that's duplicated many times and place it into lib/ so that any
architecture supporting this option can get the function for free.

show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print
generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly
different forms. This patch introduces a generic function to print debug
information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same
information and it's much easier to modify what's printed.
show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack()
does plus task and thread_info pointers.
* Archs which didn't print debug info now do.
alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r,
metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc,
um, xtensa
* Already prints debug info. Replaced with show_regs_print_info().
The printed information is superset of what used to be there.
arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86
* s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information
along with generic debug info. Heiko and Martin think that the
arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation.
Converted to use the generic version.
Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register
dumps.

Both dump_stack() and show_stack() are currently implemented by each
architecture. show_stack(NULL, NULL) dumps the backtrace for the
current task as does dump_stack(). On some archs, dump_stack() prints
extra information - pid, utsname and so on - in addition to the
backtrace while the two are identical on other archs.
The usages in arch-independent code of the two functions indicate
show_stack(NULL, NULL) should print out bare backtrace while
dump_stack() is used for debugging purposes when something went wrong,
so it does make sense to print additional information on the task which
triggered dump_stack().
There's no reason to require archs to implement two separate but mostly
identical functions. It leads to unnecessary subtle information.
This patch expands the dummy fallback dump_stack() implementation in
lib/dump_stack.c such that it prints out debug information (taken from
x86) and invokes show_stack(NULL, NULL) and drops arch-specific
dump_stack() implementations in all archs except blackfin. Blackfin's
dump_stack() does something wonky that I don't understand.
Debug information can be printed separately by calling
dump_stack_print_info() so that arch-specific dump_stack()
implementation can still emit the same debug information. This is used
in blackfin.
This patch brings the following behavior changes.
* On some archs, an extra level in backtrace for show_stack() could be
printed. This is because the top frame was determined in
dump_stack() on those archs while generic dump_stack() can't do that
reliably. It can be compensated by inlining dump_stack() but not
sure whether that'd be necessary.
* Most archs didn't use to print debug info on dump_stack(). They do
now.
An example WARN dump follows.

v2: CPU number added to the generic debug info as requested by s390
folks and dropped the s390 specific dump_stack(). This loses %ksp
from the debug message which the maintainers think isn't important
enough to keep the s390-specific dump_stack() implementation.
dump_stack_print_info() is moved to kernel/printk.c from
lib/dump_stack.c. Because linkage is per objecct file,
dump_stack_print_info() living in the same lib file as generic
dump_stack() means that archs which implement custom dump_stack()
- at this point, only blackfin - can't use dump_stack_print_info()
as that will bring in the generic version of dump_stack() too. v1
The v1 patch broke build on blackfin due to this issue. The build
breakage was reported by Fengguang Wu.

inconsistent and sometimes buggy directions:
101 files changed, 455 insertions(+), 1328 deletions(-)
this went through a number of review and test iterations before it was
committed, it was tested on various architectures, was exposed to
linux-next for quite some time - nevertheless it might cause problems
on architectures that don't read the mailing lists and don't regularly
test linux-next.
This cat herding excercise was motivated by the -rt kernel, and was
brought to you by Thomas "the Whip" Gleixner."

On large systems with a lot of memory, walking all RAM to determine page
types may take a half second or even more.
In non-blockable contexts, the page allocator will emit a page allocation
failure warning unless __GFP_NOWARN is specified. In such contexts, irqs
are typically disabled and such a lengthy delay may even result in NMI
watchdog timeouts.
To fix this, suppress the page walk in such contexts when printing the
page allocation failure warning.

User applications running on SMP kernels have long suffered from instability
and random segmentation faults. This patch improves the situation although
there is more work to be done.
One of the problems is the various routines in pgtable.h that update page table
entries use different locking mechanisms, or no lock at all (set_pte_at). This
change modifies the routines to all use the same lock pa_dbit_lock. This lock
is used for dirty bit updates in the interruption code. The patch also purges
the TLB entries associated with the PTE to ensure that inconsistent values are
not used after the page table entry is updated. The UP and SMP code are now
identical.
The change also includes a minor update to the purge_tlb_entries function in
cache.c to improve its efficiency.

CONFIG_MLONGCALLS was introduced in commit
ec758f98328da3eb933a25dc7a2eed01ef44d849 to overcome linker issues when linking
huge linux kernels, e.g. with many modules linked in.
But in the kernel module loader there is no support yet for the new relocation
types, which is why modules built with -mlong-calls can't be loaded.
Furthermore, for modules long calls are not really necessary, since we already
use stub sections which resolve long distance calls.
So, let's just disable this compiler option when compiling kernel modules.

When targetting 32-bit processors, __put_user emits a pair of stw
instructions for the 8-byte case. If the type of __val is a pointer, the
marshalling code casts it to the wider integer type of u64, resulting
in the following compiler warnings:
kernel/signal.c: In function 'copy_siginfo_to_user':
kernel/signal.c:2752:11: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast]
kernel/signal.c:2752:11: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast]
[...]
This patch fixes the warnings by removing the marshalling code and using
the correct output modifiers in the __put_{user,kernel}_asm64 macros
so that GCC will allocate the right registers without the need to
extract the two words explicitly.
