Add EVA cache flushing functions similar to non-EVA configurations. Because the cache may or may not contain user virtual addresses, we need to use the 'cache' or 'cachee' instruction based on whether we flush the cache on behalf of kernel or user respectively.

A MIPS specific csum_and_copy_from_user function is necessary because the generic one from include/net/checksum.h will not work for EVA. This is because the generic one will link to symbols from lib/checksum.c which are not EVA aware.

In EVA mode, different instructions need to be used to read/write from kernel and userland. In non-EVA mode, there is no functional difference. The current address limit is checked to decide the type of operation that will be performed.

In preparation for EVA support, we use a macro to build the __csum_partial_copy_user main code so it can be shared across multiple implementations. EVA uses the same code but it replaces the load/store/prefetch instructions with the EVA specific ones therefore using a macro avoids unnecessary code duplications.

Each load/store macro always adds an entry to the __ex_table using the EXC macro. There are cases where a load instruction may never fail such as when we are sure the load happens in the kernel address space. Therefore, we merge these the EXC and LOADX/STOREX macros into a single one. We also expand the argument list in the EXC macro to make the macro more flexible. The extra 'type' argument is not used by this commit, but it will be used when EVA support is added to memcpy. Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@imgtec.com>

The 'copy_user' symbol can be used to copy from or to userland so we will use two different symbols for these operations. This makes no difference in the existing code, but when the core is operating in EVA mode, different instructions need to be used to read and write to userland address space. The old function has also been renamed to 'copy_kernel' to denote that it is suitable for copy data to and from kernel space. Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@imgtec.com>

The str*_user functions are used to securely access NULL terminated strings from userland. Therefore, it's necessary to use the appropriate EVA function. However, if the string is in kernel space, then the normal instructions are being used to access it. The __str*_kernel_asm and __str*_user_asm symbols are the same for non-EVA mode so there is no functional change for the non-EVA kernels. Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@imgtec.com>

Use the EVA specific functions from memcpy.S to perform userspace operations. When get_fs() == get_ds() the usual load/store instructions are used because the destination address is located in the kernel address space region. Otherwise, the EVA specifc load/store instructions are used which will go through th TLB to perform the virtual to physical translation for the userspace address.

ulb, ulh, ulw are macros which emulate unaligned access for MIPS. However, no such macros exist for EVA mode, so the only way to do EVA unaligned accesses is in the ADE exception handler. As a result of which, disable these macros for EVA. Signed-off-by: Leonid Yegoshin <Leonid.Yegoshin@imgtec.com> Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@imgtec.com>

Similar to __get_user_* functions, move common code to __put_user_*_common so it can be shared among similar users. Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@imgtec.com>

In preparation for EVA support, an instruction argument is needed for the __get_user_asm{,_ll32} functions to allow instruction overrides in EVA mode. Even though EVA only works for MIPS 32-bit, both codepaths are changed (32-bit and 64-bit) for consistency reasons. Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@imgtec.com>

Build the __bzero function using the EVA load/store instructions when operating in the EVA mode. This function is only used when accessing user code so there is no need to build two distinct symbols for user and kernel operations respectively.

Add copy_{to,from,in}_user when the CPU operates in EVA mode. This is necessary so the EVA specific instructions can be used to perform the virtual to physical translation for user space addresses.

In non-EVA mode, strncpy_from_user* aliases are used for the strncpy_from_kernel* symbols since the code is identical.
