There is a race in the MIPS fork code which allows the child to get a stale copy of parent MSA/FPU/DSP state that is active in hardware registers when the fork() is called. This is because copy_thread() saves the live register state into the child context only if the hardware is currently in use, apparently on the assumption that the hardware state cannot have been saved and disabled since the initial duplication of the task_struct. However preemption is certainly possible during this window. An example sequence of events is as follows: 1) The parent userland process puts important data into saved floating point registers ($f20-$f31), which are then dirty compared to the process' stored context. 2) The parent process calls fork() which does a clone system call. 3) In the kernel, do_fork() -> copy_process() -> dup_task_struct() -> arch_dup_task_struct() (which uses the weakly defined default implementation). This duplicates the parent process' task context, which includes a stale version of its FP context from when it was last saved, probably some time before (1). 4) At some point before copy_process() calls copy_thread(), such as when duplicating the memory map, the process is desceduled. Perhaps it is preempted asynchronously, or perhaps it sleeps while blocked on a mutex. The dirty FP state in the FP registers is saved to the parent process' context and the FPU is disabled. 5) When the process is rescheduled again it continues copying state until it gets to copy_thread(), which checks whether the FPU is in use, so that it can copy that dirty state to the child process' task context. Because of the deschedule however the FPU is not in use, so the child process' context is left with stale FP context from the last time the parent saved it (some time before (1)). 6) When the new child process is scheduled it reads the important data from the saved floating point register, and ends up doing a NULL pointer dereference as a result of the stale data. This use of saved floating point registers across function calls can be triggered fairly easily by explicitly using inline asm with a current (MIPS R2) compiler, but is far more likely to happen unintentionally with a MIPS R6 compiler where the FP registers are more likely to get used as scratch registers for storing non-fp data. It is easily fixed, in the same way that other architectures do it, by overriding the implementation of arch_dup_task_struct() to sync the dirty hardware state to the parent process' task context *prior* to duplicating it, rather than copying straight to the child process' task context in copy_thread(). Note, the FPU hardware is not disabled so the parent process may continue executing with the live register context, but now the child process is guaranteed to have an identical copy of it at that point.

The following commits: 5890f70f (MIPS: Use dedicated exception handler if CPU supports RI/XI exceptions) 6575b1d4 (MIPS: kernel: cpu-probe: Detect unique RI/XI exceptions) break the kernel for *all* existing MIPS CPUs that implement the CP0_PageGrain[IEC] bit. They cause the TLB exception handlers to be generated without the legacy execute-inhibit handling, but never set the CP0_PageGrain[IEC] bit to activate the use of dedicated exception vectors for execute-inhibit exceptions. The result is that upon detection of an execute-inhibit violation, we loop forever in the TLB exception handlers instead of sending SIGSEGV to the task. If we are generating TLB exception handlers expecting separate vectors, we must also enable the CP0_PageGrain[IEC] feature. The bug was introduced in kernel version 3.17.

Commit 842dfc11 ("MIPS: Fix build with binutils 2.24.51+") in v3.18 enabled -msoft-float and sprinkled ".set hardfloat" where necessary to use FP instructions. However it missed enable_restore_fp_context() which since v3.17 does a ctc1 with inline assembly, causing the following assembler errors on Mentor's 2014.05 toolchain: {standard input}: Assembler messages: {standard input}:2913: Error: opcode not supported on this processor: mips32r2 (mips32r2) `ctc1 $2,$31' scripts/Makefile.build:257: recipe for target 'arch/mips/kernel/traps.o' failed Fix that to use the new write_32bit_cp1_register() macro so that ".set hardfloat" is automatically added when -msoft-float is in use.

Add a write_32bit_cp1_register() macro to compliment the read_32bit_cp1_register() macro. This is to abstract whether .set hardfloat needs to be used based on GAS_HAS_SET_HARDFLOAT. The implementation of _read_32bit_cp1_register() .sets mips1 due to failure of gas v2.19 to assemble cfc1 for Octeon (see commit 25c30003 ("MIPS: Override assembler target architecture for octeon.")). I haven't copied this over to _write_32bit_cp1_register() as I'm uncertain whether it applies to ctc1 too, or whether anybody cares about that version of binutils any longer.

As printk() invocation can cause e.g. a TLB miss, printk() cannot be called before the exception handlers have been properly initialized. This can happen e.g. when netconsole has been loaded as a kernel module and the TLB table has been cleared when a CPU was offline. Call cpu_report() in start_secondary() only after the exception handlers have been initialized to fix this. Without the patch the kernel will randomly either lockup or crash after a CPU is onlined and the console driver is a module.

octeon_cpu_disable() will unconditionally enable interrupts when called. We can assume that the routine is always called with interrupts disabled, so just delete the incorrect local_irq_disable/enable().

If the irq_chip does not define .irq_disable, any call to disable_irq will defer disabling the IRQ until it fires while marked as disabled. This assumes that the handler function checks for this condition, which handle_percpu_irq does not. In this case, calling disable_irq leads to an IRQ storm, if the interrupt fires while disabled. This optimization is only useful when disabling the IRQ is slow, which is not true for the MIPS CPU IRQ.

Commit 18743d27 ("irqchip: mips-gic: Stop using per-platform mapping tables") in v3.19-rc1 changed the routing of IPIs through the GIC to go to the HW0 IRQ pin along with the rest of the GIC interrupts, rather than to HW1 and HW2 pins. This breaks SMP boot using the CMP or MT SMP implementations because HW0 doesn't get unmasked when secondary CPUs are initialised so the IPIs will never interrupt secondary CPUs (nor any other interrupts routed through the GIC). Commit ff1e29ad ("MIPS: smp-cps: Enable all hardware interrupts on secondary CPUs") fixed this in advance for the CPS SMP implementation by unmasking all hardware interrupt lines for secondary CPUs, so lets do the same for the CMP and MT implementations.

When 32-bit MIPS userspace invokes a syscall indirectly via syscall(number, arg1, ..., arg7), the kernel looks up the actual syscall based on the given number, shifts the other arguments to the left, and jumps to the syscall. If the syscall is interrupted by a signal and indicates it needs to be restarted by the kernel (by returning ERESTARTNOINTR for example), the syscall must be called directly, since the number is no longer the first argument, and the other arguments are now staged for a direct call. Before shifting the arguments, store the syscall number in pt_regs->regs[2]. This gets copied temporarily into pt_regs->regs[0] after the syscall returns. If the syscall needs to be restarted, handle_signal()/do_signal() copies the number back to pt_regs->reg[2], which ends up in $v0 once control returns to userspace.

Commit 90cee759 ("MIPS: ELF: Set FP mode according to .MIPS.abiflags") introduced checking of the .MIPS.abiflags ELF section but did so through the native sized "elfhdr" and "elf_phdr" structures regardless whether the ELF was actually 32-bit or 64-bit. This produces wrong results when trying to use a 64-bit kernel to load o32 ELF files. Change the uses of the generic elf structures to their 32-bit versions. Since the code bails out on any 64-bit cases, this is OK until they are implemented.

Fixes sparse warnings: arch/mips/jz4740/irq.c:63:6: warning: symbol 'jz4740_irq_suspend' was not declared. Should it be static? arch/mips/jz4740/irq.c:69:6: warning: symbol 'jz4740_irq_resume' was not declared. Should it be static? Also, I've seen some elusive build errors on my automated build test where JZ4740_IRQ_BASE and NR_IRQS are missing, but I can't reproduce them manually for some reason. Anyway, mach-jz4740/irq.h should help us avoid relying on some implicit include.

Commit 4227a2d4 (MIPS: Support for hybrid FPRs) changes the kernel to execute read_c0_config5() even on processors that don't have a Config5 register. According to the arch spec the behaviour of trying to read or write this register is UNDEFINED where this register doesn't exist, that is merely looking at this register is already cruel because that might kill a kitten. In case of Qemu older than v2.2 Qemu has elected to implement this UNDEFINED behaviour by taking a RI exception - which then fries the kernel: [...] Freeing YAMON memory: 956k freed Freeing unused kernel memory: 240K (80674000 - 806b0000) Reserved instruction in kernel code[#1]: CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: init Not tainted 3.18.0-rc6-00058-g4227a2d4 #26 task: 86047588 ti: 86048000 task.ti: 86048000 $ 0 : 00000000 77a638cc 00000000 00000000 [...] For qemu v2.2.0 commit f31b035a9f10dc9b57f01c426110af845d453ce2 (target-mips: correctly handle access to unimplemented CP0 register) changed the behaviour to returning zero on read and ignoring writes which more matches how typical hardware implementations actually behave.

Fix for BUG_ON(anon_vma->degree) splashes in unlink_anon_vmas() ("kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!") caused by commit 7a3ef208 ("mm: prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchy") Anon_vma_clone() is usually called for a copy of source vma in destination argument. If source vma has anon_vma it should be already in dst->anon_vma. NULL in dst->anon_vma is used as a sign that it's called from anon_vma_fork(). In this case anon_vma_clone() finds anon_vma for reusing. Vma_adjust() calls it differently and this breaks anon_vma reusing logic: anon_vma_clone() links vma to old anon_vma and updates degree counters but vma_adjust() overrides vma->anon_vma right after that. As a result final unlink_anon_vmas() decrements degree for wrong anon_vma. This patch assigns ->anon_vma before calling anon_vma_clone().

Commit fee7e49d ("mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for guard page") made sure that we return the error properly for stack growth conditions. It also theorized that counting the guard page towards the stack limit might break something, but also said "Let's see if anybody notices". Somebody did notice. Apparently android-x86 sets the stack limit very close to the limit indeed, and including the guard page in the rlimit check causes the android 'zygote' process problems. So this adds the (fairly trivial) code to make the stack rlimit check be against the actual real stack size, rather than the size of the vma that includes the guard page.
