commit d65e5677ad5b3a49c43f60ec07644dc1f87bbd2e upstream.

MIPS instructions MULTU, MADDU and MSUBU emulation requires registers HI/LO
to be converted to signed 32bits before 64bit sign extension on MIPS64.

Bug was found on running MIPS32 R2 test application on MIPS64 R6 kernel.

<title>MIPS: Avoid BUG warning in arch_check_elf</title>

commit c46f59e90226fa5bfcc83650edebe84ae47d454b upstream.

arch_check_elf contains a usage of current_cpu_data that will call
smp_processor_id() with preemption enabled and therefore triggers a
"BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible" warning when an fpxx
executable is loaded.

As a follow-up to commit b244614a60ab ("MIPS: Avoid a BUG warning during
prctl(PR_SET_FP_MODE, ...)"), apply the same fix to arch_check_elf by
using raw_current_cpu_data instead. The rationale quoted from the previous
commit:

"It is assumed throughout the kernel that if any CPU has an FPU, then
all CPUs would have an FPU as well, so it is safe to perform the check
with preemption enabled - change the code to use raw_ variant of the
check to avoid the warning."

<title>MIPS: KGDB: Use kernel context for sleeping threads</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 162b270c664dca2e0944308e92f9fcc887151a72 upstream.

KGDB is a kernel debug stub and it can't be used to debug userland as it
can only safely access kernel memory.

On MIPS however KGDB has always got the register state of sleeping
processes from the userland register context at the beginning of the
kernel stack. This is meaningless for kernel threads (which never enter
userland), and for user threads it prevents the user seeing what it is
doing while in the kernel:

(gdb) info threads
  Id   Target Id         Frame
  ...
  3    Thread 2 (kthreadd) 0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
  2    Thread 1 (init)   0x000000007705c4b4 in ?? ()
  1    Thread -2 (shadowCPU0) 0xffffffff8012524c in arch_kgdb_breakpoint () at arch/mips/kernel/kgdb.c:201

Get the register state instead from the (partial) kernel register
context stored in the task's thread_struct for resume() to restore. All
threads now correctly appear to be in context_switch():

(gdb) info threads
  Id   Target Id         Frame
  ...
  3    Thread 2 (kthreadd) context_switch (rq=&lt;optimized out&gt;, cookie=..., next=&lt;optimized out&gt;, prev=0x0) at kernel/sched/core.c:2903
  2    Thread 1 (init)   context_switch (rq=&lt;optimized out&gt;, cookie=..., next=&lt;optimized out&gt;, prev=0x0) at kernel/sched/core.c:2903
  1    Thread -2 (shadowCPU0) 0xffffffff8012524c in arch_kgdb_breakpoint () at arch/mips/kernel/kgdb.c:201

Call clobbered registers which aren't saved and exception registers
(BadVAddr &amp; Cause) which can't be easily determined without stack
unwinding are reported as 0. The PC is taken from the return address,
such that the state presented matches that found immediately after
returning from resume().

commit c80e1b62ffca52e2d1d865ee58bc79c4c0c55005 upstream.

As part of handling a crash on an SMP system, an IPI is send to
all other CPUs to save their current registers and stop.  It was
using task_pt_regs(current) to get the registers, but that will
only be accurate if the CPU was interrupted running in userland.
Instead allow the architecture to pass in the registers (all
pass NULL now, but allow for the future) and then use get_irq_regs()
which should be accurate as we are in an interrupt.  Fall back to
task_pt_regs(current) if nothing else is available.

commit c25f8064c1d5731a2ce5664def890140dcdd3e5c upstream.

Commit dda45f701c9d ("MIPS: Switch to the irq_stack in interrupts")
changed both the normal and vectored interrupt handlers. Unfortunately
the vectored version, "except_vec_vi_handler", was incorrectly modified
to unconditionally jal to plat_irq_dispatch, rather than doing a jalr to
the vectored handler that has been set up. This is ok for many platforms
which set the vectored handler to plat_irq_dispatch anyway, but will
cause problems with platforms that use other handlers.

<content type='text'>
commit 3cc3434fd6307d06b53b98ce83e76bf9807689b9 upstream.

Since do_IRQ is now invoked on a separate IRQ stack, we select
HAVE_IRQ_EXIT_ON_IRQ_STACK so that softirq's may be invoked directly
from irq_exit(), rather than requiring do_softirq_own_stack.

commit 3cc3434fd6307d06b53b98ce83e76bf9807689b9 upstream.

Since do_IRQ is now invoked on a separate IRQ stack, we select
HAVE_IRQ_EXIT_ON_IRQ_STACK so that softirq's may be invoked directly
from irq_exit(), rather than requiring do_softirq_own_stack.

<title>MIPS: Switch to the irq_stack in interrupts</title>

commit dda45f701c9d7ad4ac0bb446e3a96f6df9a468d9 upstream.

When enterring interrupt context via handle_int or except_vec_vi, switch
to the irq_stack of the current CPU if it is not already in use.

The current stack pointer is masked with the thread size and compared to
the base or the irq stack. If it does not match then the stack pointer
is set to the top of that stack, otherwise this is a nested irq being
handled on the irq stack so the stack pointer should be left as it was.

The in-use stack pointer is placed in the callee saved register s1. It
will be saved to the stack when plat_irq_dispatch is invoked and can be
restored once control returns here.

<title>MIPS: Only change $28 to thread_info if coming from user mode</title>

commit 510d86362a27577f5ee23f46cfb354ad49731e61 upstream.

The SAVE_SOME macro is used to save the execution context on all
exceptions.
If an exception occurs while executing user code, the stack is switched
to the kernel's stack for the current task, and register $28 is switched
to point to the current_thread_info, which is at the bottom of the stack
region.
If the exception occurs while executing kernel code, the stack is left,
and this change ensures that register $28 is not updated. This is the
correct behaviour when the kernel can be executing on the separate irq
stack, because the thread_info will not be at the base of it.

With this change, register $28 is only switched to it's kernel
conventional usage of the currrent thread info pointer at the point at
which execution enters kernel space. Doing it on every exception was
redundant, but OK without an IRQ stack, but will be erroneous once that
is introduced.
