commit 93312b6da4df31e4102ce5420e6217135a16c7ea upstream.

mprotect(EXEC) was failing for stack mappings as default vm flags was
missing MAYEXEC.

This was triggered by glibc test suite nptl/tst-execstack testcase

What is surprising is that despite running LTP for years on, we didn't
catch this issue as it lacks a directed test case.

gcc dejagnu tests with nested functions also requiring exec stack work
fine though because they rely on the GNU_STACK segment spit out by
compiler and handled in kernel elf loader.

This glibc case is different as the stack is non exec to begin with and
a dlopen of shared lib with GNU_STACK segment triggers the exec stack
proceedings using a mprotect(PROT_EXEC) which was broken.

commit 6e3761145a9ba3ce267c330b6bff51cf6a057b06 upstream.

swap was broken on ARC due to silly copy-paste issue.

We encode offset from swapcache page in __swp_entry() as (off &lt;&lt; 13) but
were not decoding back in __swp_offset() as (off &gt;&gt; 13) - it was still
(off &lt;&lt; 13).

This finally fixes swap usage on ARC.

<title>futex: Remove duplicated code and fix undefined behaviour</title>

commit 30d6e0a4190d37740e9447e4e4815f06992dd8c3 upstream.

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).

This used to setup the LP_COUNT register automatically, but now has been
removed.

There was an earlier fix 3c7c7a2fc8811 which fixed instance in delay.h but
somehow missed this one as gcc change had not made its way into
production toolchains and was not pedantic as it is now !

commit 7d79cee2c6540ea64dd917a14e2fd63d4ac3d3c0 upstream.

It is necessary to explicitly set both SLC_AUX_RGN_START1 and SLC_AUX_RGN_END1
which hold MSB bits of the physical address correspondingly of region start
and end otherwise SLC region operation is executed in unpredictable manner

Without this patch, SLC flushes on HSDK (IOC disabled) were taking
seconds.

<title>ARC: udelay: fix inline assembler by adding LP_COUNT to clobber list</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 36425cd67052e3becf325fd4d3ba5691791ef7e4 upstream.

commit 3c7c7a2fc8811bc ("ARC: Don't use "+l" inline asm constraint")
modified the inline assembly to setup LP_COUNT register manually and NOT
rely on gcc to do it (with the +l inline assembler contraint hint, now
being retired in the compiler)

However the fix was flawed as we didn't add LP_COUNT to asm clobber list,
meaning gcc doesn't know that LP_COUNT or zero-delay-loops are in action
in the inline asm.

This resulted in some fun - as nested ZOL loops were being generared

| mov lp_count,250000 ;16 # tmp235,
| lp .L__GCC__LP14 #		&lt;======= OUTER LOOP (gcc generated)
|   .L14:
|   ld r2, [r5] # MEM[(volatile u32 *)prephitmp_43], w
|   dmb 1
|   breq r2, -1, @.L21 #, w,,
|   bbit0 r2,1,@.L13 # w,,
|   ld r4,[r7] ;25 # loops_per_jiffy, loops_per_jiffy
|   mpymu r3,r4,r6 #, loops_per_jiffy, tmp234
|
|   mov lp_count, r3 #		 &lt;====== INNER LOOP (from inline asm)
|   lp 1f
| 	 nop
|   1:
|   nop_s
| .L__GCC__LP14: ; loop end, start is @.L14 #,

This caused issues with drivers relying on sane behaviour of udelay
friends.

With LP_COUNT added to clobber list, gcc doesn't generate the outer
loop in say above case.

commit 36425cd67052e3becf325fd4d3ba5691791ef7e4 upstream.

commit 3c7c7a2fc8811bc ("ARC: Don't use "+l" inline asm constraint")
modified the inline assembly to setup LP_COUNT register manually and NOT
rely on gcc to do it (with the +l inline assembler contraint hint, now
being retired in the compiler)

However the fix was flawed as we didn't add LP_COUNT to asm clobber list,
meaning gcc doesn't know that LP_COUNT or zero-delay-loops are in action
in the inline asm.

This resulted in some fun - as nested ZOL loops were being generared

| mov lp_count,250000 ;16 # tmp235,
| lp .L__GCC__LP14 #		&lt;======= OUTER LOOP (gcc generated)
|   .L14:
|   ld r2, [r5] # MEM[(volatile u32 *)prephitmp_43], w
|   dmb 1
|   breq r2, -1, @.L21 #, w,,
|   bbit0 r2,1,@.L13 # w,,
|   ld r4,[r7] ;25 # loops_per_jiffy, loops_per_jiffy
|   mpymu r3,r4,r6 #, loops_per_jiffy, tmp234
|
|   mov lp_count, r3 #		 &lt;====== INNER LOOP (from inline asm)
|   lp 1f
| 	 nop
|   1:
|   nop_s
| .L__GCC__LP14: ; loop end, start is @.L14 #,

This caused issues with drivers relying on sane behaviour of udelay
friends.

With LP_COUNT added to clobber list, gcc doesn't generate the outer
loop in say above case.

commit 08fe007968b2b45e831daf74899f79a54d73f773 upstream.

An ARC700 customer reported linux boot crashes when upgrading to bigger
L1 dcache (64K from 32K). Turns out they had an aliasing VIPT config and
current code only assumed 2 colours, while theirs had 4. So default to 4
colours and complain if there are fewer. Ideally this needs to be a
Kconfig option, but heck that's too much of hassle for a single user.

commit 3c7c7a2fc8811bc7097479f69acf2527693d7562 upstream.

Apparenty this is coming in the way of gcc fix which inhibits the usage
of LP_COUNT as a gpr.

commit 05d9d0b96e53c52a113fd783c0c97c830c8dc7af upstream.

Al reported potential issue with ARC get_user() as it wasn't clearing
out destination pointer in case of fault due to bad address etc.

Verified using following

| {
|  	u32 bogus1 = 0xdeadbeef;
|	u64 bogus2 = 0xdead;
|	int rc1, rc2;
|
|  	pr_info("Orig values %x %llx\n", bogus1, bogus2);
|	rc1 = get_user(bogus1, (u32 __user *)0x40000000);
|	rc2 = get_user(bogus2, (u64 __user *)0x50000000);
|	pr_info("access %d %d, new values %x %llx\n",
|		rc1, rc2, bogus1, bogus2);
| }

| [ARCLinux]# insmod /mnt/kernel-module/qtn.ko
| Orig values deadbeef dead
| access -14 -14, new values 0 0
