MIPS: Always use -Wa,-msoft-float and eliminate GAS_HAS_SET_HARDFLOAT

2023-01-26T03:41:16+00:00

-Wa,-msoft-float is tested with as-option, which will be a problem for
clang with an upcoming change to move as-option to use KBUILD_AFLAGS
instead of KBUILD_CFLAGS due to a lack of '-mno-abicalls' in
KBUILD_AFLAGS at the point that this check occurs; $(cflags-y) is added
to KBUILD_AFLAGS towards the end of this file.

  clang: error: ignoring '-fno-PIE' option as it cannot be used with implicit usage of -mabicalls and the N64 ABI [-Werror,-Woption-ignored]

This could be resolved by switching to a cc-option check but
'$(cflags-y)' would need to be added so that '-mno-abicalls' is present
for the test. However, this check is no longer necessary, as
-msoft-float is supported by all supported assembler versions (GNU as
2.25+ and LLVM 11+). Eliminate GAS_HAS_SET_HARDFLOAT and all of its
uses, inlining SET_HARDFLOAT where necessary.

MIPS: remove asm/war.h

The major part for workaround handling has already moved to config
options. This change replaces the remaining defines by already
available config options and gets rid of war.h

MIPS: Make check condition for SDBBP consistent with EJTAG spec

2021-02-11T10:04:31+00:00

According to MIPS EJTAG Specification [1], a Debug Breakpoint
exception occurs when an SDBBP instruction is executed, the
CP0_DEBUG bit DBp indicates that a Debug Breakpoint exception
occurred.

When I read the original code, it looks a little confusing
at first glance, just check bit DBp for SDBBP to make the
code more readable, it will be much easier to understand.

MIPS: handle Loongson-specific GSExc exception

2020-07-31T15:52:47+00:00

Newer Loongson cores (Loongson-3A R2 and newer) use the
implementation-dependent ExcCode 16 to signal Loongson-specific
exceptions. The extended cause is put in the non-standard CP0.Diag1
register which is CP0 Register 22 Select 1, called GSCause in Loongson
manuals. Inside is an exception code bitfield called GSExcCode, only
codes 0 to 6 inclusive are documented (so far, in the Loongson 3A3000
User Manual, Volume 2).

During experiments, it was found that some undocumented unprivileged
instructions can trigger the also-undocumented GSExcCode 8 on Loongson
3A4000. Processor state is not corrupted, but we cannot continue without
further knowledge, and Loongson is not providing that information as of
this writing. So we send SIGILL on seeing this exception code to thwart
easy local DoS attacks.

Other exception codes are made fatal, partly because of insufficient
knowledge, also partly because they are not as easily reproduced. None
of them are encountered in the wild with upstream kernels and userspace
so far.

Some older cores (Loongson-3A1000 and Loongson-3B1500) have ExcCode 16
too, but the semantic is equivalent to GSExcCode 0. Because the
respective manuals did not mention the CP0.Diag1 register or its read
behavior, these cores are not covered in this patch, as MFC0 from
non-existent CP0 registers is UNDEFINED according to the MIPS
architecture spec.

MIPS: Fix IRQ tracing when call handle_fpe() and handle_msa_fpe()

2020-05-27T11:11:49+00:00

Register "a1" is unsaved in this function,
 when CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS is enabled,
 the TRACE_IRQS_OFF macro will call trace_hardirqs_off(),
 and this may change register "a1".
 The changed register "a1" as argument will be send
 to do_fpe() and do_msa_fpe().

MIPS: asm: Rename some macros to avoid build errors

Use ASM_ prefix to rename some macros (PANIC and PRINT), in order to
avoid build errors (all users are updated as well):

1, PANIC conflicts with drivers/scsi/smartpqi/smartpqi_init.c
2, PRINT conflicts with net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_h323_asn1.c and net/

MIPS: genex: Don't reload address unnecessarily

2019-10-07T16:43:10+00:00

In ejtag_debug_handler() we must reload the address of
ejtag_debug_buffer_spinlock if an sc fails, since the address in k0 will
have been clobbered by the result of the sc instruction. In the case
where we simply load a non-zero value (ie. there's contention for the
lock) the address will not be clobbered & we can simply branch back to
repeat the load from memory without reloading the address into k0.

The primary motivation for this change is that it moves the target of
the bnez instruction to an instruction within the LL/SC loop (the LL
itself), which we know contains no other memory accesses & therefore
isn't affected by Loongson3 LL/SC errata.

MIPS: genex: Add Loongson3 LL/SC workaround to ejtag_debug_handler

2019-10-07T16:43:09+00:00

In ejtag_debug_handler we use LL & SC instructions to acquire & release
an open-coded spinlock. For Loongson3 systems affected by LL/SC errata
this requires that we insert a sync instruction prior to the LL in order
to ensure correct behavior of the LL/SC loop.

MIPS: r4k-bugs64: Limit R4k bug checks to affected systems

2019-10-07T16:38:53+00:00

Only build the checks for R4k errata workarounds if we expect that the
kernel might actually run on a system with an R4k CPU - ie.
CONFIG_SYS_HAS_CPU_R4X00=y & we're targeting a pre-MIPSr1 ISA revision.

Rename cpu-bugs64.c to r4k-bugs64.c to indicate the fact that the code
is specific to R4k CPUs.
