[ Upstream commit 411dac79cc2ed80f7e348ccc23eb4d8b0ba9f6d5 ]

Add missing clearing of BLTZALL and BGEZALL emulation counters in
function mipsr2_stats_clear_show().

Previously, it was not possible to reset BLTZALL and BGEZALL
emulation counters - their value remained the same even after
explicit request via debugfs. As far as other related counters
are concerned, they all seem to be properly cleared.

This change affects debugfs operation only, core R2 emulation
functionality is not affected.

<title>MIPS: r2-on-r6-emu: Fix BLEZL and BGTZL identification</title>

[ Upstream commit 5bba7aa4958e271c3ffceb70d47d3206524cf489 ]

Fix the problem of inaccurate identification of instructions BLEZL and
BGTZL in R2 emulation code by making sure all necessary encoding
specifications are met.

Previously, certain R6 instructions could be identified as BLEZL or
BGTZL. R2 emulation routine didn't take into account that both BLEZL
and BGTZL instructions require their rt field (bits 20 to 16 of
instruction encoding) to be 0, and that, at same time, if the value in
that field is not 0, the encoding may represent a legitimate MIPS R6
instruction.

This means that a problem could occur after emulation optimization,
when emulation routine tried to pipeline emulation, picked up a next
candidate, and subsequently misrecognized an R6 instruction as BLEZL
or BGTZL.

It should be said that for single pass strategy, the problem does not
happen because CPU doesn't trap on branch-compacts which share opcode
space with BLEZL/BGTZL (but have rt field != 0, of course).

<title>MIPS: BMIPS: Do not mask IPIs during suspend</title>

commit 06a3f0c9f2725f5d7c63c4203839373c9bd00c28 upstream.

Commit a3e6c1eff548 ("MIPS: IRQ: Fix disable_irq on CPU IRQs") fixes an
issue where disable_irq did not actually disable the irq. The bug caused
our IPIs to not be disabled, which actually is the correct behavior.

With the addition of commit a3e6c1eff548 ("MIPS: IRQ: Fix disable_irq on
CPU IRQs"), the IPIs were getting disabled going into suspend, thus
schedule_ipi() was not being called. This caused deadlocks where
schedulable task were not being scheduled and other cpus were waiting
for them to do something.

Add the IRQF_NO_SUSPEND flag so an irq_disable will not be called on the
IPIs during suspend.

<title>MIPS: Fix an FCSR access API regression with NT_PRFPREG and MSA</title>

<id>cfc5c63a38ca0ae5f11d48589c4f9e348e9428aa</id>
<content type='text'>
commit be07a6a1188372b6d19a3307ec33211fc9c9439d upstream.

Fix a commit 72b22bbad1e7 ("MIPS: Don't assume 64-bit FP registers for
FP regset") public API regression, then activated by commit 1db1af84d6df
("MIPS: Basic MSA context switching support"), that caused the FCSR
register not to be read or written for CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA kernel
configurations (regardless of actual presence or absence of the MSA
feature in a given processor) with ptrace(2) PTRACE_GETREGSET and
PTRACE_SETREGSET requests nor recorded in core dumps.

This is because with !CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA configurations the whole of
`elf_fpregset_t' array is bulk-copied as it is, which includes the FCSR
in one half of the last, 33rd slot, whereas with CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA
configurations array elements are copied individually, and then only the
leading 32 FGR slots while the remaining slot is ignored.

Correct the code then such that only FGR slots are copied in the
respective !MSA and MSA helpers an then the FCSR slot is handled
separately in common code.  Use `ptrace_setfcr31' to update the FCSR
too, so that the read-only mask is respected.

Retrieving a correct value of FCSR is important in debugging not only
for the human to be able to get the right interpretation of the
situation, but for correct operation of GDB as well.  This is because
the condition code bits in FSCR are used by GDB to determine the
location to place a breakpoint at when single-stepping through an FPU
branch instruction.  If such a breakpoint is placed incorrectly (i.e.
with the condition reversed), then it will be missed, likely causing the
debuggee to run away from the control of GDB and consequently breaking
the process of investigation.

Fortunately GDB continues using the older PTRACE_GETFPREGS ptrace(2)
request which is unaffected, so the regression only really hits with
post-mortem debug sessions using a core dump file, in which case
execution, and consequently single-stepping through branches is not
possible.  Of course core files created by buggy kernels out there will
have the value of FCSR recorded clobbered, but such core files cannot be
corrected and the person using them simply will have to be aware that
the value of FCSR retrieved is not reliable.

Which also means we can likely get away without defining a replacement
API which would ensure a correct value of FSCR to be retrieved, or none
at all.

This is based on previous work by Alex Smith, extensively rewritten.

commit 80b3ffce0196ea50068885d085ff981e4b8396f4 upstream.

Update commit d614fd58a283 ("mips/ptrace: Preserve previous registers
for short regset write") bug and consistently consume all data supplied
to `fpr_set_msa' with the ptrace(2) PTRACE_SETREGSET request, such that
a zero data buffer counter is returned where insufficient data has been
given to fill a whole number of FP general registers.

In reality this is not going to happen, as the caller is supposed to
only supply data covering a whole number of registers and it is verified
in `ptrace_regset' and again asserted in `fpr_set', however structuring
code such that the presence of trailing partial FP general register data
causes `fpr_set_msa' to return with a non-zero data buffer counter makes
it appear that this trailing data will be used if there are subsequent
writes made to FP registers, which is going to be the case with the FCSR
once the missing write to that register has been fixed.

<title>MIPS: Guard against any partial write attempt with PTRACE_SETREGSET</title>

commit dc24d0edf33c3e15099688b6bbdf7bdc24bf6e91 upstream.

Complement commit d614fd58a283 ("mips/ptrace: Preserve previous
registers for short regset write") and ensure that no partial register
write attempt is made with PTRACE_SETREGSET, as we do not preinitialize
any temporaries used to hold incoming register data and consequently
random data could be written.

It is the responsibility of the caller, such as `ptrace_regset', to
arrange for writes to span whole registers only, so here we only assert
that it has indeed happened.

<title>MIPS: Factor out NT_PRFPREG regset access helpers</title>

commit a03fe72572c12e98f4173f8a535f32468e48b6ec upstream.

In preparation to fix a commit 72b22bbad1e7 ("MIPS: Don't assume 64-bit
FP registers for FP regset") FCSR access regression factor out
NT_PRFPREG regset access helpers for the non-MSA and the MSA variants
respectively, to avoid having to deal with excessive indentation in the
actual fix.

No functional change, however use `target-&gt;thread.fpu.fpr[0]' rather
than `target-&gt;thread.fpu.fpr[i]' for FGR holding type size determination
as there's no `i' variable to refer to anymore, and for the factored out
`i' variable declaration use `unsigned int' rather than `unsigned' as
its type, following the common style.

<title>MIPS: Validate PR_SET_FP_MODE prctl(2) requests against the ABI of the task</title>

commit b67336eee3fcb8ecedc6c13e2bf88aacfa3151e2 upstream.

Fix an API loophole introduced with commit 9791554b45a2 ("MIPS,prctl:
add PR_[GS]ET_FP_MODE prctl options for MIPS"), where the caller of
prctl(2) is incorrectly allowed to make a change to CP0.Status.FR or
CP0.Config5.FRE register bits even if CONFIG_MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT has
not been enabled, despite that an executable requesting the mode
requested via ELF file annotation would not be allowed to run in the
first place, or for n64 and n64 ABI tasks which do not have non-default
modes defined at all.  Add suitable checks to `mips_set_process_fp_mode'
and bail out if an invalid mode change has been requested for the ABI in
effect, even if the FPU hardware or emulation would otherwise allow it.

Always succeed however without taking any further action if the mode
requested is the same as one already in effect, regardless of whether
any mode change, should it be requested, would actually be allowed for
the task concerned.
