MIPS: Save MSA extended context around signals

2015-09-03T10:07:59+00:00

It is desirable for signal handlers to be allowed to make use of MSA,
particularly if auto vectorisation is used when compiling a program.
The MSA context must therefore be saved & restored before & after
invoking the signal handler. Make use of the extended context structs
defined in the preceding patch to save MSA context after the sigframe
when appropriate.

MIPS: Use struct mips_abi offsets to save FP context

2015-09-03T10:07:55+00:00

When saving FP state to struct sigcontext, make use of the offsets
provided by struct mips_abi to obtain appropriate addresses for the
sc_fpregs & sc_fpc_csr fields of the sigcontext. This is done only for
the native struct sigcontext in this patch (ie. for O32 in CONFIG_32BIT
kernels or for N64 in CONFIG_64BIT kernels) but is done in preparation
for sharing this code with compat ABIs in further patches.

sched/preempt, MIPS: Properly lock access to the FPU

2015-05-19T06:39:18+00:00

Let's always disable preemption and pagefaults when locking the fpu,
so we can be sure that the owner won't change in between.

This is a preparation for pagefault_disable() not touching preemption
anymore.

mips: Use get_signal() signal_setup_done()

2014-08-06T11:03:08+00:00

Use the more generic functions get_signal() signal_setup_done()
for signal delivery.

most of set_current_blocked() callers want SIGKILL/SIGSTOP removed from set

2012-06-01T16:58:51+00:00

Only 3 out of 63 do not.  Renamed the current variant to __set_current_blocked(),
added set_current_blocked() that will exclude unblockable signals, switched
open-coded instances to it.

MIPS: Move signal trampolines off of the stack.

2010-04-12T16:26:15+00:00

This is a follow on to the vdso patch.

Since all processes now have signal trampolines permanently mapped, we
can use those instead of putting the trampoline on the stack and
invalidating the corresponding icache across all CPUs.  We also get rid
of a bunch of ICACHE_REFILLS_WORKAROUND_WAR code.

[Ralf: GDB 7.1 which has the necessary modifications to allow backtracing
over signal frames will supposedly be released tomorrow.  The old signal
frame format obsoleted by this patch exists in two variations, for sane
processors and for those requiring ICACHE_REFILLS_WORKAROUND_WAR.  So
there was never a GDB which did support backtracing over signal frames
on all MIPS systems.  This convinved me this series should be applied and
pushed upstream as soon as possible.]

[MIPS] Retry {save,restore}_fp_context if failed in atomic context.

2007-04-20T13:58:37+00:00

The save_fp_context()/restore_fp_context() might sleep on accessing
user stack and therefore might lose FPU ownership in middle of them.

If these function failed due to "in_atomic" test in do_page_fault,
touch the sigcontext area in non-atomic context and retry these
save/restore operation.

This is a replacement of a (broken) fix which was titled "Allow CpU
exception in kernel partially".

[MIPS] Check FCSR for pending interrupts, alternative version

Commit 6d6671066a311703bca1b91645bb1e04cc983387 is incomplete and misses
non-r4k CPUs.  This patch reverts the commit and fixes in other way.

 o Do FCSR checking in caller of restore_fp_context.
 o Send SIGFPE if the signal handler set any FPU exception bits.
