      MIPS: lantiq: Remove separate GPHY Firmware loader · aeb669d4
      Hauke Mehrtens authored
      The separate GPHY Firmware loader driver is not used any more, the GPHY
      firmware is now loaded by the GSWIP switch driver which also makes use
      of the GPHY.
      Remove the old unused GPHY firmware loader driver.
      
      The GPHY firmware is useless without an Ethernet and switch driver, it
      should not harm if loading this does not work for system using an old
      device tree.
      I am not aware of any vendor separating the device tree from the kernel
      binary, it should be ok to remove this.
      
      The code and the functionality form this separate GPHY firmware loader
      was added to the gswip driver in commit 14fceff4 ("net: dsa: Add
      Lantiq / Intel DSA driver for vrx200")

      Commit e36863a5 ("MIPS: HIGHMEM DMA on noncoherent MIPS32
      processors") introduced code which:
      
        1) Calculates an offset within a page, by ANDing an address
           with ~PAGE_MASK.
      
        2) Checks whether that offset is >= PAGE_SIZE.
      
      This check can never evaluate true, making the code it guards
      unreachable. smatch spots bogus arithmetic resulting from the
      impossible condition, resulting in the following warning:

      MIPS: eBPF: Always return sign extended 32b values · bdc18902
      Paul Burton authored
      The function prototype used to call JITed eBPF code (ie. the type of the
      struct bpf_prog bpf_func field) returns an unsigned int. The MIPS n64
      ABI that MIPS64 kernels target defines that 32 bit integers should
      always be sign extended when passed in registers as either arguments or
      return values.
      
      This means that when returning any value which may not already be sign
      extended (ie. of type REG_64BIT or REG_32BIT_ZERO_EX) we need to perform
      that sign extension in order to comply with the n64 ABI. Without this we
      see strange looking test failures from test_bpf.ko, such as:
      
        test_bpf: #65 ALU64_MOV_X:
          dst = 4294967295 jited:1 ret -1 != -1 FAIL (1 times)
      
      Although the return value printed matches the expected value, this is
      only because printf is only examining the least significant 32 bits of
      the 64 bit register value we returned. The register holding the expected
      value is sign extended whilst the v0 register was set to a zero extended
      value by our JITed code, so when compared by a conditional branch
      instruction the values are not equal.
      
      We already handle this when the return value register is of type
      REG_32BIT_ZERO_EX, so simply extend this to also cover REG_64BIT.

      MIPS: Fix set_pte() for Netlogic XLR using cmpxchg64() · c7e2d71d
      Paul Burton authored
      Commit 46011e6e ("MIPS: Make set_pte() SMP safe.") introduced an
      open-coded version of cmpxchg() within set_pte(), that always operated
      on a value the size of an unsigned long. That is, it used ll/sc
      instructions when CONFIG_32BIT=y or lld/scd instructions when
      CONFIG_64BIT=y.
      
      This was broken for configurations in which pte_t is larger than an
      unsigned long (with the exception of XPA configurations which have a
      different implementation of set_pte()), because we no longer update the
      whole PTE. Indeed commit 46011e6e ("MIPS: Make set_pte() SMP safe.")
      notes:
      
      > The case of CONFIG_64BIT_PHYS_ADDR && CONFIG_CPU_MIPS32 is *not*
      > handled.
      
      In practice this affects Netlogic XLR/XLS systems including
      nlm_xlr_defconfig.
      
      Commit 82f4f66d ("MIPS: Remove open-coded cmpxchg() in set_pte()")
      then replaced this open-coded version of cmpxchg() with an actual call
      to cmpxchg(). Unfortunately the configurations mentioned above then fail
      to build because cmpxchg() can only operate on values 32 bits or smaller
      in size, resulting in:
      
        arch/mips/include/asm/cmpxchg.h:166:11: error:
          call to '__cmpxchg_called_with_bad_pointer' declared with
          attribute error: Bad argument size for cmpxchg
      
      One option that would fix the build failure & restore the previous
      behaviour would be to cast the pte pointer to a pointer to unsigned
      long, so that cmpxchg() would operate on just 32 bits of the PTE as it
      has been since commit 46011e6e ("MIPS: Make set_pte() SMP safe.").
      That feels like an ugly hack though, and the behaviour of set_pte() is
      likely a little broken.
      
      Instead we take advantage of the fact that the affected configurations
      already know at compile time that the CPU will support 64 bits (ie. have
      hardcoded cpu_has_64bits in cpu-feature-overrides.h) in order to allow
      cmpxchg64() to be used in these configurations. set_pte() then makes use
      of cmpxchg64() when necessary.

      build as neither 32 nor 64 bit.

      MIPS: Don't select ARCH_HAS_SYNC_DMA_FOR_CPU when DMA is coherent · 9ae1f262
      Paul Burton authored
      Commit f263f2a2 ("MIPS: Compile post DMA flush only when needed")
      pushed the selection of ARCH_HAS_SYNC_DMA_FOR_CPU down to various
      SYS_HAS_CPU_* Kconfig entries corresponding to CPUs for which
      cpu_needs_post_dma_flush() might return true, but unfortunately missed
      the fact that some of these CPUs can be used in configurations with
      DMA_NONCOHERENT=n. When this is the case the kernel build does not
      include our definition of arch_sync_dma_for_cpu() from
      arch/mips/mm/dma-noncoherent.c and the build fails with a link error.
      
      One example of this problem is ip27_defconfig:
      
        kernel/dma/direct.o: In function `dma_direct_sync_single_for_cpu':
        direct.c:(.text+0x6c): undefined reference to `arch_sync_dma_for_cpu'

      DMA_NONCOHERENT is also selected. The SYS_HAS_CPU_BMIPS5000 case is left
      as-is because systems with that CPU always select DMA_NONCOHERENT

      MIPS: MemoryMapID (MMID) Support · c8790d65
      Paul Burton authored
      Introduce support for using MemoryMapIDs (MMIDs) as an alternative to
      Address Space IDs (ASIDs). The major difference between the two is that
      MMIDs are global - ie. an MMID uniquely identifies an address space
      across all coherent CPUs. In contrast ASIDs are non-global per-CPU IDs,
      wherein each address space is allocated a separate ASID for each CPU
      upon which it is used. This global namespace allows a new GINVT
      instruction be used to globally invalidate TLB entries associated with a
      particular MMID across all coherent CPUs in the system, removing the
      need for IPIs to invalidate entries with separate ASIDs on each CPU.
      
      The allocation scheme used here is largely borrowed from arm64 (see
      arch/arm64/mm/context.c). In essence we maintain a bitmap to track
      available MMIDs, and MMIDs in active use at the time of a rollover to a
      new MMID version are preserved in the new version. The allocation scheme
      requires efficient 64 bit atomics in order to perform reasonably, so
      this support depends upon CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64=n (ie. currently it
      will only be included in MIPS64 kernels).
      
      The first, and currently only, available CPU with support for MMIDs is
      the MIPS I6500. This CPU supports 16 bit MMIDs, and so for now we cap
      our MMIDs to 16 bits wide in order to prevent the bitmap growing to
      absurd sizes if any future CPU does implement 32 bit MMIDs as the
      architecture manuals suggest is recommended.
      
      When MMIDs are in use we also make use of GINVT instruction which is
      available due to the global nature of MMIDs. By executing a sequence of
      GINVT & SYNC 0x14 instructions we can avoid the overhead of an IPI to
      each remote CPU in many cases. One complication is that GINVT will
      invalidate wired entries (in all cases apart from type 0, which targets
      the entire TLB). In order to avoid GINVT invalidating any wired TLB
      entries we set up, we make sure to create those entries using a reserved
      MMID (0) that we never associate with any address space.
      
      Also of note is that KVM will require further work in order to support
      MMIDs & GINVT, since KVM is involved in allocating IDs for guests & in
      configuring the MMU. That work is not part of this patch, so for now
      when MMIDs are in use KVM is disabled.

      instruction to globally invalidate TLB entries. We make use of the
      _ASM_MACRO infrastructure to support emitting the instructions even if
      the assembler isn't new enough to support them natively.
      
      An associated STYPE_GINV definition & sync_ginv() function are added to
      emit a sync instruction of type 0x14, which operates as a completion
      barrier for these new GINVT (and GINVI) instructions.

      MIPS: mm: Add set_cpu_context() for ASID assignments · 0b317c38
      Paul Burton authored
      When we gain MMID support we'll be storing MMIDs as atomic64_t values
      and accessing them via atomic64_* functions. This necessitates that we
      don't use cpu_context() as the left hand side of an assignment, ie. as a
      modifiable lvalue. In preparation for this introduce a new
      set_cpu_context() function & replace all assignments with cpu_context()
      on their left hand side with an equivalent call to set_cpu_context().
      
      To enforce that cpu_context() should not be used for assignments, we
      rewrite it as a static inline function.

      MIPS: mm: Unify ASID version checks · 42d5b846
      Paul Burton authored
      Introduce a new check_mmu_context() function to check an mm's ASID
      version & get a new one if it's outdated, and a
      check_switch_mmu_context() function which additionally sets up the new
      ASID & page directory. Simplify switch_mm() & various
      get_new_mmu_context() callsites in MIPS KVM by making use of the new
      functions, which will help reduce the amount of code that requires
      modification to gain MMID support.

      MIPS: mm: Un-inline get_new_mmu_context · 4ebea49c
      Paul Burton authored
      In preparation for adding MMID support to get_new_mmu_context() which
      will increase the size of the function somewhat, move it from
      asm/mmu_context.h into a C file.

      MIPS: mm: Remove local_flush_tlb_mm() · 558ec8ad
      Paul Burton authored
      All 3 variants of local_flush_tlb_mm() are now effectively simple calls
      to drop_mmu_context(). Remove them and use drop_mmu_context() directly.

      MIPS: mm: Remove redundant preempt_disable in local_flush_tlb_mm() · f7908a00
      Paul Burton authored
      The r4k variant of local_flush_tlb_mm() wraps its call to
      drop_mmu_context() with a preempt_disable() & preempt_enable() pair, but
      this is redundant since drop_mmu_context() disables interrupts and from
      Documentation/preempt-locking.txt:
      
        Note that you do not need to explicitly prevent preemption if you are
        holding any locks or interrupts are disabled, since preemption is
        implicitly disabled in those cases.
      
      Remove the redundant preempt_disable() & preempt_enable() calls.

      MIPS: mm: Move drop_mmu_context() comment into appropriate block · 6067d47e
      Paul Burton authored
      drop_mmu_context() is preceded by a comment indicating what happens if
      the mm provided is currently active on the local CPU. Move that comment
      into the block that executes in this case, adjusting slightly to reflect
      its new location.
