mips/mm/highmem: use set_pte() for kmap_local()

2021-01-24T18:34:52+00:00

set_pte_at() on MIPS invokes update_cache() which might recurse into
kmap_local().

Use set_pte() like the original MIPS highmem implementation did.

MIPS: OCTEON: fix unreachable code in octeon_irq_init_ciu

2021-01-13T09:59:32+00:00

The type of 'r' in octeon_irq_init_ciu is 'unsigned int', so 'r < 0'
can't be true.

Fix this by change the type of 'r' and 'i' from 'unsigned int'
to 'int'. As 'i' won't be negative, this change works.

MIPS: relocatable: fix possible boot hangup with KASLR enabled

2021-01-13T09:59:04+00:00

LLVM-built Linux triggered a boot hangup with KASLR enabled.

arch/mips/kernel/relocate.c:get_random_boot() uses linux_banner,
which is a string constant, as a random seed, but accesses it
as an array of unsigned long (in rotate_xor()).
When the address of linux_banner is not aligned to sizeof(long),
such access emits unaligned access exception and hangs the kernel.

Use PTR_ALIGN() to align input address to sizeof(long) and also
align down the input length to prevent possible access-beyond-end.

local64.h: make mandatory

2020-12-29T23:36:49+00:00

Make  mandatory in include/asm-generic/Kbuild and
remove all arch/*/include/asm/local64.h arch-specific files since they
only #include .

This fixes build errors on arch/c6x/ and arch/nios2/ for
block/blk-iocost.c.

Build-tested on 21 of 25 arch-es.  (tools problems on the others)

Yes, we could even rename  to
 and change all #includes to use
 instead.

MIPS: Fix malformed NT_FILE and NT_SIGINFO in 32bit coredumps

2020-12-28T22:26:17+00:00

Patches that introduced NT_FILE and NT_SIGINFO notes back in 2012
had taken care of native (fs/binfmt_elf.c) and compat (fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c)
coredumps; unfortunately, compat on mips (which does not go through the
usual compat_binfmt_elf.c) had not been noticed.

As the result, both N32 and O32 coredumps on 64bit mips kernels
have those sections malformed enough to confuse the living hell out of
all gdb and readelf versions (up to and including the tip of binutils-gdb.git).

Longer term solution is to make both O32 and N32 compat use the
regular compat_binfmt_elf.c, but that's too much for backports.  The minimal
solution is to do in arch/mips/kernel/binfmt_elf[on]32.c the same thing
those patches have done in fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c

MIPS: boot: Fix unaligned access with CONFIG_MIPS_RAW_APPENDED_DTB

2020-12-28T22:26:16+00:00

The compressed payload is not necesarily 4-byte aligned, at least when
compiling with Clang. In that case, the 4-byte value appended to the
compressed payload that corresponds to the uncompressed kernel image
size must be read using get_unaligned_le32().

This fixes Clang-built kernels not booting on MIPS (tested on a Ingenic
JZ4770 board).

Merge tag 'tif-task_work.arch-2020-12-14' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

2020-12-16T20:33:35+00:00

Pull TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This sits on top of of the core entry/exit and x86 entry branch from
  the tip tree, which contains the generic and x86 parts of this work.

  Here we convert the rest of the archs to support TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL.

  With that done, we can get rid of JOBCTL_TASK_WORK from task_work and
  signal.c, and also remove a deadlock work-around in io_uring around
  knowing that signal based task_work waking is invoked with the sighand
  wait queue head lock.

  The motivation for this work is to decouple signal notify based
  task_work, of which io_uring is a heavy user of, from sighand. The
  sighand lock becomes a huge contention point, particularly for
  threaded workloads where it's shared between threads. Even outside of
  threaded applications it's slower than it needs to be.

  Roman Gershman  reported that his networked
  workload dropped from 1.6M QPS at 80% CPU to 1.0M QPS at 100% CPU
  after io_uring was changed to use TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL. The time was all
  spent hammering on the sighand lock, showing 57% of the CPU time there
  [1].

  There are further cleanups possible on top of this. One example is
  TIF_PATCH_PENDING, where a patch already exists to use
  TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL instead. Hopefully this will also lead to more
  consolidation, but the work stands on its own as well"
