MIPS: Avoid accidental raw backtrace

2017-07-05T12:37:15+00:00

commit 854236363370995a609a10b03e35fd3dc5e9e4a1 upstream.

Since commit 81a76d7119f6 ("MIPS: Avoid using unwind_stack() with
usermode") show_backtrace() invokes the raw backtracer when
cp0_status & ST0_KSU indicates user mode to fix issues on EVA kernels
where user and kernel address spaces overlap.

However this is used by show_stack() which creates its own pt_regs on
the stack and leaves cp0_status uninitialised in most of the code paths.
This results in the non deterministic use of the raw back tracer
depending on the previous stack content.

show_stack() deals exclusively with kernel mode stacks anyway, so
explicitly initialise regs.cp0_status to KSU_KERNEL (i.e. 0) to ensure
we get a useful backtrace.

MIPS: Avoid using unwind_stack() with usermode

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

commit 81a76d7119f63c359750e4adeff922a31ad1135f upstream.

When showing backtraces in response to traps, for example crashes and
address errors (usually unaligned accesses) when they are set in debugfs
to be reported, unwind_stack will be used if the PC was in the kernel
text address range. However since EVA it is possible for user and kernel
address ranges to overlap, and even without EVA userland can still
trigger an address error by jumping to a KSeg0 address.

Adjust the check to also ensure that it was running in kernel mode. I
don't believe any harm can come of this problem, since unwind_stack() is
sufficiently defensive, however it is only meant for unwinding kernel
code, so to be correct it should use the raw backtracing instead.

MIPS: MSA: Fix a link error on `_init_msa_upper' with older GCC

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

commit e49d38488515057dba8f0c2ba4cfde5be4a7281f upstream.

Fix a build regression from commit c9017757c532 ("MIPS: init upper 64b
of vector registers when MSA is first used"):

arch/mips/built-in.o: In function `enable_restore_fp_context':
traps.c:(.text+0xbb90): undefined reference to `_init_msa_upper'
traps.c:(.text+0xbb90): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `_init_msa_upper'
traps.c:(.text+0xbef0): undefined reference to `_init_msa_upper'
traps.c:(.text+0xbef0): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `_init_msa_upper'

to !CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA configurations with older GCC versions, which are
unable to figure out that calls to `_init_msa_upper' are indeed dead.
Of the many ways to tackle this failure choose the approach we have
already taken in `thread_msa_context_live'.

MIPS: traps: Fix SIGFPE information leak from `do_ov' and `do_trap_or_bp'

2016-03-09T23:34:55+00:00

commit e723e3f7f9591b79e8c56b3d7c5a204a9c571b55 upstream.

Avoid sending a partially initialised `siginfo_t' structure along SIGFPE
signals issued from `do_ov' and `do_trap_or_bp', leading to information
leaking from the kernel stack.

MIPS: traps: tidy up ebase calculation

2015-10-26T08:49:44+00:00

Rather than #ifdef on CONFIG_KVM_GUEST & redefine the guest kseg0 base
locally, make use of the CAC_BASE macro which has the correct value in
both cases.

MIPS: Refactor dumping of TLB registers for r3k/r4k

2015-09-03T10:07:45+00:00

The TLB registers are dumped in a couble of places:
 - sysrq_tlbdump_single() - when dumping TLB state.
 - do_mcheck() - in response to a machine check error.

The main TLB registers also differ between r3k and r4k, but r4k appears
to be assumed.

Refactor this code into a dump_tlb_regs() function, implemented for both
r3k and r4k, and used by both of the above functions.
