MIPS: Fix build error due to PTR used in more places

2022-01-27T08:04:19+00:00

Use PTR_WD instead of PTR to avoid clashes with other parts.

arch: remove compat_alloc_user_space

2021-09-08T22:32:35+00:00

All users of compat_alloc_user_space() and copy_in_user() have been
removed from the kernel, only a few functions in sparc remain that can be
changed to calling arch_copy_in_user() instead.

MIPS: Remove get_fs/set_fs

2021-04-06T13:12:58+00:00

All get_fs/set_fs calls in MIPS code are gone, so remove implementation
of it.  With the clear separation of user/kernel space access we no
longer need the EVA special handling, so get rid of that, too.

MIPS: do not compile generic functions for CONFIG_CAVIUM_OCTEON_SOC

2020-03-25T15:07:13+00:00

MIPS provides multiple definitions for the following functions:

  fw_init_cmdline
  __delay
  __udelay
  __ndelay
  memmove
  __rmemcpy
  memcpy
  __copy_user

The generic ones are defined in lib-y objects, which are overridden by
the Octeon ones when CONFIG_CAVIUM_OCTEON_SOC is enabled.

The use of EXPORT_SYMBOL in static libraries potentially causes a
problem for the llvm linker [1]. So, I want to forcibly link lib-y
objects to vmlinux when CONFIG_MODULES=y.

As a groundwork, we must fix multiple definitions that have previously
been hidden by lib-y.

If you look at lib/string.c, arch can define __HAVE_ARCH_* to opt out
the generic implementation.

Similarly, this commit adds CONFIG_HAVE_PLAT_* to allow a platform
to opt out the MIPS generic code.

MIPS: make CPU_HAS_LOAD_STORE_LR opt-out

2020-01-22T18:16:47+00:00

CPU_HAS_LOAD_STORE_LR was introduced in 932afdeec18b ("MIPS: Add Kconfig
variable for CPUs with unaligned load/store instructions") to make code
in kernel/unaligned.c and lib/mem{cpy,set}.S more intuitive and give a
possibility to easily add new CPUs without these instruction sets in
future.

Hovewer, this variant is not optimal for mainly two reasons:
* For now, we have 20+ CPUs with such instructions and only two (MIPS R6)
  without. It will obviously be more effective and straightforward to
  have an option for these two rather than for the rest.
* You can easily miss the fact that you need to select this option when
  adding a new CPU, while all processors lacking these sets are
  well-known, so the probability of missing something is way much lower.

We can address both points by turning CPU_HAS_LOAD_STORE_LR into opt-out
CPU_NO_LOAD_STORE_LR. This also makes MIPS root Kconfig more clear and
understandable.

MIPS: lib: Use kernel_pref & user_pref in memcpy()

2018-10-16T06:11:14+00:00

memcpy() is the only user of the PREF() & PREFE() macros from asm/asm.h.
Switch to using the kernel_pref() & user_pref() macros from
asm/asm-eva.h which fit more consistently with other abstractions of EVA
vs non-EVA instructions.

MIPS: Add Kconfig variable for CPUs with unaligned load/store instructions

2018-09-26T20:38:18+00:00

MIPSR6 CPUs do not support unaligned load/store instructions
(LWL, LWR, SWL, SWR and LDL, LDR, SDL, SDR for 64bit).

Currently the MIPS tree has some special cases to avoid these
instructions, and the code is testing for !CONFIG_CPU_MIPSR6.

This patch declares a new Kconfig variable:
CONFIG_CPU_HAS_LOAD_STORE_LR.
This variable indicates that the CPU supports these instructions.

Then, the patch does the following:
- Carefully selects this option on all CPUs except MIPSR6.
- Switches all the special cases to test for the new variable,
  and inverts the logic:
    '#ifndef CONFIG_CPU_MIPSR6' turns into
    '#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_HAS_LOAD_STORE_LR'
    and vice-versa.

Also, when this variable is NOT selected (e.g. MIPSR6),
CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM will default to 'y', to compile generic
C checksum code (instead of special assembly code that uses the
unsupported instructions).

This commit should not affect any existing CPU, and is required
for future Lexra CPU support, that misses these instructions too.

MIPS: R6: Fix PREF instruction usage by memcpy for MIPS R6

2017-06-29T00:42:24+00:00

Disable usage of PREF instruction usage by memcpy for MIPS R6.

MIPS R6 redefines PREF instruction with smaller offset than
ordinary MIPS. However, the memcpy code uses PREF instruction
with offsets bigger than +-256 bytes.

Malta kernels already disable usage of PREF for memcpy.

This was found during adaptation of MIPS R6 for virtual board
used by Android emulator.
