The fault_addr argument to fpu_emulator_cop1Handler(), fpux_emu() and
cop1Emulate() has up until now been declared as:
void *__user *fault_addr
This is essentially a pointer in user memory which points to a pointer
to void. This is not the intent for our code, which is actually
operating on a pointer to a pointer to void where the pointer to void is
pointing at user memory. ie. the pointer is in kernel memory & points to
user memory.
This mismatch produces a lot of sparse warnings that look like this:
arch/mips/math-emu/cp1emu.c:1485:45:
warning: incorrect type in assignment (different address spaces)
expected void *[noderef] <asn:1><noident>
got unsigned int [noderef] [usertype] <asn:1>*[assigned] va
Fix these by modifying the declaration of the fault_addr argument to:
void __user **fault_addr

The kernel contains a small amount of incomplete code aimed at
supporting old R6000 CPUs. This is:
- Unused, as no machine selects CONFIG_SYS_HAS_CPU_R6000.
- Broken, since there are glaring errors such as r6000_fpu.S moving
the FCSR register to t1, then ignoring it & instead saving t0 into
struct sigcontext...
- A maintenance headache, since it's code that nobody can test which
nevertheless imposes constraints on code which it shares with other
machines.
Remove this incomplete & broken R6000 CPU support in order to clean up
and in preparation for changes which will no longer need to consider
dragging the pretense of R6000 support along with them.

smp_ops providers do not modify their ops structures, so they should be
made const for robustness. Since currently the MIPS kernel is not mapped
with memory protection, this does not in itself provide any security
benefit, but it still makes sense to make this change.
There are also slight code size efficincies from the structure being
made read-only, saving 128 bytes of kernel text on a
pistachio_defconfig.

There is code duplicated over all architecture's headers for
futex_atomic_op_inuser. Namely op decoding, access_ok check for uaddr,
and comparison of the result.
Remove this duplication and leave up to the arches only the needed
assembly which is now in arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser.
This effectively distributes the Will Deacon's arm64 fix for undefined
behaviour reported by UBSAN to all architectures. The fix was done in
commit 5f16a046f8e1 (arm64: futex: Fix undefined behaviour with
FUTEX_OP_OPARG_SHIFT usage). Look there for an example dump.
And as suggested by Thomas, check for negative oparg too, because it was
also reported to cause undefined behaviour report.
Note that s390 removed access_ok check in d12a29703 ("s390/uaccess:
remove pointless access_ok() checks") as access_ok there returns true.
We introduce it back to the helper for the sake of simplicity (it gets
optimized away anyway).

In a recent discussion Maciej Rozycki reported that this case is
impossible.
Handle the impossible case by just returning instead of trying to
handle it. This makes static analysis simpler as it means nothing
needs to consider the impossible case after the return statement.
As the code no longer has to deal with this case remove FPE_FIXME from
the mips siginfo.h

This series includes some mlx5 updates for both net-next and rdma trees.
From Saeed,
Core driver updates to allow selectively building the driver with
or without some large driver components, such as
- E-Switch (Ethernet SRIOV support).
- Multi-Physical Function Switch (MPFs) support.
For that we split E-Switch and MPFs functionalities into separate files.
From Erez,

Commit 296e46db0073 ("MIPS: Don't unnecessarily include kmalloc.h into
<asm/cache.h>.") claimed that the inclusion of the machine's kmalloc.h
from asm/cache.h is unnecessary, but this is not true.
Without including kmalloc.h we don't get a definition for
ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN, which means we no longer suitably align DMA. Further
to this the definition of ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN provided by linux/slab.h
ends up being set to the alignment of an unsigned long long value rather
than to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN, which means that buffers allocated using
kmalloc may no longer be safely aligned for use with DMA.
Fix this by re-adding the include of kmalloc.h in asm/cache.h. This
reverts commit 296e46db0073 ("MIPS: Don't unnecessarily include
kmalloc.h into <asm/cache.h>.")

The send call ignores unknown flags. Legacy applications may already
unwittingly pass MSG_ZEROCOPY. Continue to ignore this flag unless a
socket opts in to zerocopy.
Introduce socket option SO_ZEROCOPY to enable MSG_ZEROCOPY processing.
Processes can also query this socket option to detect kernel support
for the feature. Older kernels will return ENOPROTOOPT.

struct siginfo is a union and the kernel since 2.4 has been hiding a union
tag in the high 16bits of si_code using the values:
__SI_KILL
__SI_TIMER
__SI_POLL
__SI_FAULT
__SI_CHLD
__SI_RT
__SI_MESGQ
__SI_SYS
While this looks plausible on the surface, in practice this situation has
not worked well.
- Injected positive signals are not copied to user space properly
unless they have these magic high bits set.
- Injected positive signals are not reported properly by signalfd
unless they have these magic high bits set.
- These kernel internal values leaked to userspace via ptrace_peek_siginfo
- It was possible to inject these kernel internal values and cause the
the kernel to misbehave.
- Kernel developers got confused and expected these kernel internal values
in userspace in kernel self tests.
- Kernel developers got confused and set si_code to __SI_FAULT which
is SI_USER in userspace which causes userspace to think an ordinary user
sent the signal and that it was not kernel generated.
- The values make it impossible to reorganize the code to transform
siginfo_copy_to_user into a plain copy_to_user. As si_code must
be massaged before being passed to userspace.
So remove these kernel internal si codes and make the kernel code simpler
and more maintainable.
To replace these kernel internal magic si_codes introduce the helper
function siginfo_layout, that takes a signal number and an si_code and
computes which union member of siginfo is being used. Have
siginfo_layout return an enumeration so that gcc will have enough
information to warn if a switch statement does not handle all of union
members.
A couple of architectures have a messed up ABI that defines signal
specific duplications of SI_USER which causes more special cases in
siginfo_layout than I would like. The good news is only problem
architectures pay the cost.
Update all of the code that used the previous magic __SI_ values to
use the new SIL_ values and to call siginfo_layout to get those
values. Escept where not all of the cases are handled remove the
defaults in the switch statements so that if a new case is missed in
the future the lack will show up at compile time.
Modify the code that copies siginfo si_code to userspace to just copy
the value and not cast si_code to a short first. The high bits are no
longer used to hold a magic union member.
Fixup the siginfo header files to stop including the __SI_ values in
their constants and for the headers that were missing it to properly
update the number of si_codes for each signal type.
The fixes to copy_siginfo_from_user32 implementations has the
interesting property that several of them perviously should never have
worked as the __SI_ values they depended up where kernel internal.
With that dependency gone those implementations should work much
better.
The idea of not passing the __SI_ values out to userspace and then
not reinserting them has been tested with criu and criu worked without
changes.

Setting si_code to __SI_FAULT results in a userspace seeing
an si_code of 0. This is the same si_code as SI_USER. Posix
and common sense requires that SI_USER not be a signal specific
si_code. As such this use of 0 for the si_code is a pretty
horribly broken ABI.
This use of of __SI_FAULT is only a decade old. Which compared
to the other pieces of kernel code that has made this mistake
is almost yesterday.
This is probably worth fixing but I don't know mips well enough
to know what si_code to would be the proper one to use.

Patch series "mm: give __GFP_REPEAT a better semantic".
The main motivation for the change is that the current implementation of
__GFP_REPEAT is not very much useful.
The documentation says:
* __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt
* _might_ fail. This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
It just fails to mention that this is true only for large (costly) high
order which has been the case since the flag was introduced. A similar
semantic would be really helpful for smal orders as well, though,
because we have places where a failure with a specific fallback error
handling is preferred to a potential endless loop inside the page
allocator.
The earlier cleanup dropped __GFP_REPEAT usage for low (!costly) order
users so only those which might use larger orders have stayed. One new
user added in the meantime is addressed in patch 1.
Let's rename the flag to something more verbose and use it for existing
users. Semantic for those will not change. Then implement low
(!costly) orders failure path which is hit after the page allocator is
about to invoke the oom killer. With that we have a good counterpart
for __GFP_NORETRY and finally can tell try as hard as possible without
the OOM killer.
Xfs code already has an existing annotation for allocations which are
allowed to fail and we can trivially map them to the new gfp flag
because it will provide the semantic KM_MAYFAIL wants. Christoph didn't
consider the new flag really necessary but didn't respond to the OOM
killer aspect of the change so I have kept the patch. If this is still
seen as not really needed I can drop the patch.
kvmalloc will allow also !costly high order allocations to retry hard
before falling back to the vmalloc.
drm/i915 asked for the new semantic explicitly.
Memory migration code, especially for the memory hotplug, should back
off rather than invoking the OOM killer as well.
This patch (of 6):
Commit 3377e227af44 ("MIPS: Add 48-bit VA space (and 4-level page
tables) for 4K pages.") has added a new __GFP_REPEAT user but using this
flag doesn't really make any sense for order-0 request which is the case
here because PUD_ORDER is 0. __GFP_REPEAT has historically effect only
on allocation requests with order > PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER.
This doesn't introduce any functional change. This is a preparatory
patch for later work which renames the flag and redefines its semantic.

Commit db8466c581cc ("MIPS: IRQ Stack: Unwind IRQ stack onto task

value with a 4 byte alignment. The MIPS32 ABI requires that the minimum
stack alignment is 8 byte, and the MIPS64 ABIs(n32/n64) require 16 byte
minimum alignment. Fix IRQ_STACK_START such that it leaves space for the
dummy stack frame (containing interrupted task kernel stack pointer)
while also meeting minimum alignment requirements.

When the system call return value is forced to be an error (for example
due to SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO), syscall_set_return_value() puts the error
code in the return register $v0 and -1 in the error register $a3.
However normally executed system calls put 1 in the error register
rather than -1, so fix syscall_set_return_value() to be consistent with
that.
I don't anticipate that anything would have been broken by this, since
the most natural way to check the error register on MIPS would be a
conditional branch if error register is [not] equal to zero (bnez or
beqz).

Fix incorrect calculation in do_monotonic() and do_monotonic_coarse()
function that in turn caused incorrect values returned by the vdso
version of system call clock_gettime() on mips64 if its system clock
ID parameter was CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE.
Consider these variables and their types on mips32 and mips64:
tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_sec s64, s64 (kernel/vdso.c)
vdso_data.wall_to_mono_sec u32, u32 (kernel/vdso.c)
to_mono_sec u32, u32 (vdso/gettimeofday.c)
ts->tv_sec s32, s64 (vdso/gettimeofday.c)
For mips64 case, u32 vdso_data.wall_to_mono_sec variable is updated
from the 64-bit signed variable tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_sec
(kernel/vdso.c:76) which is a negative number holding the time passed
from 1970-01-01 to the time boot started. This 64-bit signed value is
currently around 47+ years, in seconds. For instance, let this value
be:
-1489757461
or
11111111111111111111111111111111 10100111001101000001101011101011
By updating 32-bit vdso_data.wall_to_mono_sec variable, we lose upper
32 bits (signed 1's).
to_mono_sec variable is a parameter of do_monotonic() and
do_monotonic_coarse() functions which holds vdso_data.wall_to_mono_sec
value. Its value needs to be added (or subtracted considering it holds
negative value from the tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_sec) to the current
time passed from 1970-01-01 (ts->tv_sec), which is again something like
47+ years, but increased by the time passed from the boot to the
current time. ts->tv_sec is 32-bit long in case of 32-bit architecture
and 64-bit long in case of 64-bit architecture. Consider the update of
ts->tv_sec (vdso/gettimeofday.c:55 & 167):
ts->tv_sec += to_mono_sec;
mips32 case: This update will be performed correctly, since both
ts->tv_sec and to_mono_sec are 32-bit long and the sign in to_mono_sec
is preserved. Implicit conversion from u32 to s32 will be done
correctly.
mips64 case: This update will be wrong, since the implicit conversion
will not be done correctly. The reason is that the conversion will be
from u32 to s64. This is because to_mono_sec is 32-bit long for both
mips32 and mips64 cases and s64..33 bits of converted to_mono_sec
variable will be zeros.
So, in order to make MIPS64 implementation work properly for
MONOTONIC and MONOTONIC_COARSE clock ids on mips64, the size of
wall_to_mono_sec variable in mips_vdso_data union and respective
parameters in do_monotonic() and do_monotonic_coarse() functions
should be changed from u32 to u64. Because of consistency, this
size change from u32 and u64 is also done for wall_to_mono_nsec
variable and corresponding function parameters.
As far as similar situations for other architectures are concerned,
let's take a look at arm. Arm has two distinct vdso_data structures
for 32-bit & 64-bit cases, and arm's wall_to_mono_sec and
wall_to_mono_nsec are u32 for 32-bit and u64 for 64-bit cases.
On the other hand, MIPS has only one structure (mips_vdso_data),
hence the need for changing the size of above mentioned parameters.

Some systems share FTLB RAMs or entries between sibling CPUs (ie.
hardware threads, or VP(E)s, within a core). These properties require
kernel handling in various places. As a start this patch introduces
cpu_has_shared_ftlb_ram & cpu_has_shared_ftlb_entries feature macros
which we set appropriately for I6400 & I6500 CPUs. Further patches will
make use of these macros as appropriate.

Fix a regression introduced with commit fb6883e5809c ("MIPS: microMIPS:
Support handling of delay slots.") and defer to `__compute_return_epc'
if the ISA bit is set in EPC with non-MIPS16, non-microMIPS hardware,
which will then arrange for a SIGBUS due to an unaligned instruction
reference. Returning EPC here is never correct as the API defines this
function's result to be either a negative error code on failure or one
of 0 and BRANCH_LIKELY_TAKEN on success.

us to drop a whole load of inline assembly, share more generic code, and
is also a performance win.

Implement support for 1 & 2 byte cmpxchg() using read-modify-write atop
a 4 byte cmpxchg(). This allows us to support these atomic operations
despite the MIPS ISA only providing 4 & 8 byte atomic operations.
This is required in order to support queued rwlocks (qrwlock) in a later
patch, since these make use of a 1 byte cmpxchg() in their slow path.

Replace the macro definition of __cmpxchg() with an inline function,
which is easier to read & modify. The cmpxchg() & cmpxchg_local() macros
are adjusted to call the new __cmpxchg() function.

The __xchg_u32() & __xchg_u64() functions now add very little value.
This patch therefore removes them, by:
- Moving memory barriers out of them & into xchg(), which also removes
the duplication & readies us to support xchg_relaxed() if we wish to.
- Calling __xchg_asm() directly from __xchg().
- Performing the check for CONFIG_64BIT being enabled in the size=8
case of __xchg().

xchg() has up until now simply returned the x parameter in cases where
it is called with a pointer to a value of an unsupported size. This will
often cause the calling code to hit a failure path, presuming that the
value of x differs from the content of the memory pointed at by ptr, but
we can do better by producing a compile-time or link-time error such
that unsupported calls to xchg() are detectable earlier than runtime.
This patch does this in the same was as is already done for cmpxchg(),
using a call to a missing function annotated with __compiletime_error().

Our cmpxchg() implementation relies upon generating a call to a function
which doesn't really exist (__cmpxchg_called_with_bad_pointer) to create
a link failure in cases where cmpxchg() is called with a pointer to a
value of an unsupported size.
The __compiletime_error macro can be used to decorate a function such
that a call to it generates a compile-time, rather than a link-time,
error. This patch uses __compiletime_error to cause bad cmpxchg() calls
to error out at compile time rather than link time, allowing errors to
occur more quickly & making it easier to spot where the problem comes
from.

Use a macro to generate the 32 & 64 bit variants of the backing code for
xchg(), much as is already done for cmpxchg(). This removes the
duplication that could previously be found in __xchg_u32() &
__xchg_u64().

Prior to this patch the xchg & cmpxchg functions have duplicated code
which is for all intents & purposes identical apart from use of a
branch-likely instruction in the R10000_LLSC_WAR case & a regular branch
instruction in the non-R10000_LLSC_WAR case.
This patch removes the duplication, declaring a __scbeqz macro to select
the branch instruction suitable for use when checking the result of an
sc instruction & making use of it to unify the 2 cases.
In __xchg_u{32,64}() this means writing the branch in asm, where it was
previously being done in C as a do...while loop for the
non-R10000_LLSC_WAR case. As this is a single instruction, and adds
consistency with the R10000_LLSC_WAR cases & the cmpxchg() code, this
seems worthwhile.
