MIPS: Fix uapi include in exported asm/siginfo.h

2016-06-08T01:14:30+00:00

commit 987e5b834467c9251ca584febda65ef8f66351a9 upstream.

Since commit 8cb48fe169dd ("MIPS: Provide correct siginfo_t.si_stime"),
MIPS' uapi/asm/siginfo.h has included uapi/asm-generic/siginfo.h
directly before defining MIPS' struct siginfo, in order to get the
necessary definitions needed for the siginfo struct without the generic
copy_siginfo() hitting compiler errors due to struct siginfo not yet
being defined.

Now that the generic copy_siginfo() is moved out to linux/signal.h we
can safely include asm-generic/siginfo.h before defining the MIPS
specific struct siginfo, which avoids the uapi/ include as well as
breakage due to generic copy_siginfo() being defined before struct
siginfo.

MIPS: Fix siginfo.h to use strict posix types

2016-06-08T01:14:30+00:00

commit 5daebc477da4dfeb31ae193d83084def58fd2697 upstream.

Commit 85efde6f4e0d ("make exported headers use strict posix types")
changed the asm-generic siginfo.h to use the __kernel_* types, and
commit 3a471cbc081b ("remove __KERNEL_STRICT_NAMES") make the internal
types accessible only to the kernel, but the MIPS implementation hasn't
been updated to match.

Switch to proper types now so that the exported asm/siginfo.h won't
produce quite so many compiler errors when included alone by a user
program.

MIPS: Initial implementation of a VDSO

2015-11-11T07:36:36+00:00

Add an initial implementation of a proper (i.e. an ELF shared library)
VDSO. With this commit it does not export any symbols, it only replaces
the current signal return trampoline page. A later commit will add user
implementations of gettimeofday()/clock_gettime().

To support both new toolchains and old ones which don't generate ABI
flags section, we define its content manually and then use a tool
(genvdso) to patch up the section to have the correct name and type.
genvdso also extracts symbol offsets ({,rt_}sigreturn) needed by the
kernel, and generates a C file containing a "struct mips_vdso_image"
containing both the VDSO data and these offsets. This C file is
compiled into the kernel.

On 64-bit kernels we require a different VDSO for each supported ABI,
so we may build up to 3 different VDSOs. The VDSO to use is selected by
the mips_abi structure.

A kernel/user shared data page is created and mapped below the VDSO
image. This is currently empty, but will be used by the user time
function implementations which are added later.

[markos.chandras@imgtec.com:
- Add more comments
- Move abi detection in genvdso.h since it's the get_symbol function
that needs it.
- Add an R6 specific way to calculate the base address of VDSO in order
to avoid the branch instruction which affects performance.
- Do not patch .gnu.attributes since it's not needed for dynamic linking.
- Simplify Makefile a little bit.
- checkpatch fixes
- Restrict VDSO support for binutils < 2.25 for pre-R6
- Include atomic64.h for O32 variant on MIPS64]

mm: mlock: add mlock flags to enable VM_LOCKONFAULT usage

2015-11-06T03:34:48+00:00

The previous patch introduced a flag that specified pages in a VMA should
be placed on the unevictable LRU, but they should not be made present when
the area is created.  This patch adds the ability to set this state via
the new mlock system calls.

We add MLOCK_ONFAULT for mlock2 and MCL_ONFAULT for mlockall.
MLOCK_ONFAULT will set the VM_LOCKONFAULT modifier for VM_LOCKED.
MCL_ONFAULT should be used as a modifier to the two other mlockall flags.
When used with MCL_CURRENT, all current mappings will be marked with
VM_LOCKED | VM_LOCKONFAULT.  When used with MCL_FUTURE, the mm->def_flags
will be marked with VM_LOCKED | VM_LOCKONFAULT.  When used with both
MCL_CURRENT and MCL_FUTURE, all current mappings and mm->def_flags will be
marked with VM_LOCKED | VM_LOCKONFAULT.

Prior to this patch, mlockall() will unconditionally clear the
mm->def_flags any time it is called without MCL_FUTURE.  This behavior is
maintained after adding MCL_ONFAULT.  If a call to mlockall(MCL_FUTURE) is
followed by mlockall(MCL_CURRENT), the mm->def_flags will be cleared and
new VMAs will be unlocked.  This remains true with or without MCL_ONFAULT
in either mlockall() invocation.

munlock() will unconditionally clear both vma flags.  munlockall()
unconditionally clears for VMA flags on all VMAs and in the mm->def_flags
field.

MIPS: UAPI: Ignore __arch_swab{16,32,64} when using MIPS16

2015-10-05T09:30:23+00:00

Some GCC versions (e.g. 4.8.3) can incorrectly inline a function with
MIPS32 instructions into another function with MIPS16 code [1], causing
the assembler to genereate incorrect binary code or fail right away
complaining about unrecognized opcode.

In the case of __arch_swab{16,32}, when inlined by the compiler with
flags `-mips32r2 -mips16 -Os', the assembler can fail with the following
error.

    {standard input}:79: Error: unrecognized opcode `wsbh $2,$2'

For performance concerns and to workaround the issue already existing in
older compilers, just ignore these 2 functions when compiling with
mips16 enabled.

Revert "MIPS: UAPI: Fix unrecognized opcode WSBH/DSBH/DSHD when using MIPS16."

2015-10-05T09:29:57+00:00

This reverts commit e0d8b2ec532852d4b5aabcec3e7611848c32237d.

For at least GCC 4.8.3, adding nomips16 function attribute still cannot
prevent it from being inlined in mips16 context.  So revert it first in
preparation for a better workaround.
