Propagate sNaN payload in quieting in the legacy-NaN mode as well. If clearing the quiet bit would produce infinity, then set the next lower trailing significand field bit, matching the SB-1 and BMIPS5000 hardware implementations. Some other MIPS FPU hardware implementations do produce the default qNaN bit pattern instead. This reverts some changes made for semantics preservation with commit dc3ddf42 [MIPS: math-emu: Update sNaN quieting handlers], consequently bringing back most of the semantics from before commit fdffbafb [Lots of FPU bug fixes from Kjeld Borch Egevang.], except from the qNaN produced in the infinity case. Previously the default qNaN bit pattern was produced in that case. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

Since commit 8cb48fe1 ("MIPS: Provide correct siginfo_t.si_stime"), MIPS' uapi/asm/siginfo.h has included uapi/asm-generic/siginfo.h directly before defining MIPS' struct siginfo, in order to get the necessary definitions needed for the siginfo struct without the generic copy_siginfo() hitting compiler errors due to struct siginfo not yet being defined. Now that the generic copy_siginfo() is moved out to linux/signal.h we can safely include asm-generic/siginfo.h before defining the MIPS specific struct siginfo, which avoids the uapi/ include as well as breakage due to generic copy_siginfo() being defined before struct siginfo.

The generic copy_siginfo() is currently defined in asm-generic/siginfo.h, after including uapi/asm-generic/siginfo.h which defines the generic struct siginfo. However this makes it awkward for an architecture to use it if it has to define its own struct siginfo (e.g. MIPS and potentially IA64), since it means that asm-generic/siginfo.h can only be included after defining the arch-specific siginfo, which may be problematic if the arch-specific definition needs definitions from uapi/asm-generic/siginfo.h. It is possible to work around this by first including uapi/asm-generic/siginfo.h to get the constants before defining the arch-specific siginfo, and include asm-generic/siginfo.h after. However uapi headers can't be included by other uapi headers, so that first include has to be in an ifdef __kernel__, with the non __kernel__ case including the non-UAPI header instead. Instead of that mess, move the generic copy_siginfo() definition into linux/signal.h, which allows an arch-specific uapi/asm/siginfo.h to include asm-generic/siginfo.h and define the arch-specific siginfo, and for the generic copy_siginfo() to see that arch-specific definition.

BCM6358 has a shared TLB which conflicts with current SMP support, so it must be disabled for now. BCM6358 uses >= 0xfffe0000 addresses for internal registers, which need to be remapped (by using a simplified version of BRCM63xx ioremap.h). However, 0xfff80000 is a better address, since it also covers BCM3368, leaving the possibility to add it in the future.

BMIPS5000 and BMIPS5200 processor have no D cache aliases, and this is properly handled by the per-CPU override added at the end of r4k_cache_init(), the problem is that the output of probe_pcache() disagrees with that, since this is too late: Primary instruction cache 32kB, VIPT, 4-way, linesize 64 bytes. Primary data cache 32kB, 4-way, VIPT, cache aliases, linesize 32 bytes With the change moved earlier, we now have a consistent output with the settings we are intending to have: Primary instruction cache 32kB, VIPT, 4-way, linesize 64 bytes.

This patch adds KASLR to the MIPS kernel. Entropy is derived from the banner, which will change every build and random_get_entropy() which should provide additional runtime entropy. Additionally the bootloader may pass entropy via the /chosen/kaslr-seed node in device tree. The kernel is relocated by up to RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET bytes from its link address (PHYSICAL_START). Because relocation happens so early in the kernel boot, the amount of physical memory has not yet been determined. This means the only way to limit relocation within the available memory is via Kconfig.

The kernel reserves all memory before the _end symbol as bootmem, however, once the kernel can be relocated elsewhere in memory this may result in a large amount of wasted memory. The assumption is that the memory between the link and relocated address of the kernel may be released back to the available memory pool. Memory statistics for a Malta with the kernel relocating by 16Mb, without the patch: Memory: 105952K/131072K available (4604K kernel code, 242K rwdata, 892K rodata, 1280K init, 183K bss, 25120K reserved, 0K cma-reserved) And with the patch: Memory: 122336K/131072K available (4604K kernel code, 242K rwdata, 892K rodata, 1280K init, 183K bss, 8736K reserved, 0K cma-reserved) The 16Mb offset is removed from the reserved region and added back to the available region.

When CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is enabled (added in later patch) add --emit-relocs to vmlinux LDFLAGS so that fully linked vmlinux contains relocation information. Run the previously added relocs tool to fill in the .data.relocs section of vmlinux with a table of relocations. The relocs tool will also remove (mark as 0 length) the relocation sections added to vmlinux. When vmlinux is passed to the boot makefile for conversion into a boot image the now empty relocation sections will be removed and the populated relocation table will be included in the binary image.

When CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is enabled, add a new section in the memory map to be filled with relocation data. CONFIG_RELOCATION_TABLE_SIZE allows the amount of space reserved to be adjusted if necessary. The relocs tool will populate this reserved space with relocation information. The space is reserved within the elf by filling it with 0's, and an invalid entry is left at the start of the space such that kernel relocation will be aborted if the table is empty.

This tool is based on the x86/boot/tools/relocs tool. It parses the relocations present in the vmlinux elf file, building a table of relocations that will be necessary to run the kernel from an address other than its link address. This table is inserted into the vmlinux elf, in the .data.relocs section. The table is subsequently used by the code in arch/mips/kernel/relocate.c (added later) to relocate the kernel. The tool, by default, also marks all relocation sections as 0 length. This is due to objcopy currently being unable to handle copying the relocations between 64 and 32 bit elf files as is done when building a 64 bit kernel.
