MIPS: fw: Allow firmware to pass a empty env

2023-04-12T13:07:36+00:00

fw_getenv will use env entry to determine style of env,
however it is legal for firmware to just pass a empty list.

Check if first entry exist before running strchr to avoid
null pointer dereference.

MIPS: do not compile generic functions for CONFIG_CAVIUM_OCTEON_SOC

2020-03-25T15:07:13+00:00

MIPS provides multiple definitions for the following functions:

  fw_init_cmdline
  __delay
  __udelay
  __ndelay
  memmove
  __rmemcpy
  memcpy
  __copy_user

The generic ones are defined in lib-y objects, which are overridden by
the Octeon ones when CONFIG_CAVIUM_OCTEON_SOC is enabled.

The use of EXPORT_SYMBOL in static libraries potentially causes a
problem for the llvm linker [1]. So, I want to forcibly link lib-y
objects to vmlinux when CONFIG_MODULES=y.

As a groundwork, we must fix multiple definitions that have previously
been hidden by lib-y.

If you look at lib/string.c, arch can define __HAVE_ARCH_* to opt out
the generic implementation.

Similarly, this commit adds CONFIG_HAVE_PLAT_* to allow a platform
to opt out the MIPS generic code.

MIPS: DEC/SNI: O32 wrapper stack switching fixes

2014-05-12T22:29:35+00:00

Commit 231a35d37293ab88d325a9cb94e5474c156282c0 [[MIPS] RM: Collected
changes] broke DECstation support by introducing an incompatible copy of
arch/mips/dec/prom/call_o32.S in arch/mips/fw/lib/, built unconditionally.
The copy happens to land earlier of the two among the modules used in the
link and is therefore chosen for the DECstation rather than the intended
original.  As a result random kernel data is corrupted because a pointer
to the "%s" formatted output template is used as a temporary stack pointer
rather than being passed down to prom_printf.  This also explains why
prom_printf still works, up to a point -- the next argument is the actual
string to output so it works just fine as the output template until enough
kernel data has been corrupted to cause a crash.

This change adjusts the modified wrapper in arch/mips/fw/lib/call_o32.S to
let callers request no stack switching by passing a null temporary stack
pointer in $a1, reworks the DECstation callers to work with the updated
interface and removes the old copy from arch/mips/dec/prom/call_o32.S.  A
few minor readability adjustments are included as well, most importantly
O32_SZREG is now used throughout where applicable rather than hardcoded
multiplies of 4 and $fp is used to access the argument save area as a more
usual register to operate the stack with rather than $s0.

Finally an update is made to the temporary stack space used by the SNI
platform to guarantee 8-byte alignment as per o32 requirements.

MIPS: Eleminate filenames from comments

2009-08-03T16:52:40+00:00

They tend to get not updated when files are moved around or copied and
lack any obvious use.  While at it zap some only too obvious comments and
as per Shinya's suggestion, add a copyright header to extable.c.
