<title>treewide: prefix header search paths with $(srctree)/</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, the Kbuild core manipulates header search paths in a crazy
way [1].

To fix this mess, I want all Makefiles to add explicit $(srctree)/ to
the search paths in the srctree. Some Makefiles are already written in
that way, but not all. The goal of this work is to make the notation
consistent, and finally get rid of the gross hacks.

Having whitespaces after -I does not matter since commit 48f6e3cf5bc6
("kbuild: do not drop -I without parameter").

The 32-bit vDSO is not needed and not normally built for 64-bit
little-endian configurations.  However, the vdso_install target still
builds and installs it.  Add the same config condition as is normally
used for the build.

<title>powerpc: Fix defconfig choice logic when cross compiling</title>

<id>af5cd05de5dd38cf25d14ea4d30ae9b791d2420b</id>
<content type='text'>
Our logic for choosing defconfig doesn't work well in some situations.

For example if you're on a ppc64le machine but you specify a non-empty
CROSS_COMPILE, in order to use a non-default toolchain, then defconfig
will give you ppc64_defconfig (big endian):

  $ make CROSS_COMPILE=~/toolchains/gcc-8/bin/powerpc-linux- defconfig
  *** Default configuration is based on 'ppc64_defconfig'

This is because we assume that CROSS_COMPILE being set means we
can't be on a ppc machine and rather than checking we just default to
ppc64_defconfig.

We should just ignore CROSS_COMPILE, instead check the machine with
uname and if it's one of ppc, ppc64 or ppc64le then use that
defconfig. If it's none of those then we fall back to ppc64_defconfig.

Add a generic 32-bit defconfig called ppc_defconfig. This means we'll
have a defconfig matching "uname -m" for all cases.

This config is mostly intended for build testing but if someone wants
to tweak it to get it booting on something that would be fine too.

<title>powerpc/32: Remove CURRENT_THREAD_INFO and rename TI_CPU</title>

<content type='text'>
Now that thread_info is similar to task_struct, its address is in r2
so CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro is useless. This patch removes it.

This patch also moves the 'tovirt(r2, r2)' down just before the
reactivation of MMU translation, so that we keep the physical address
of 'current' in r2 until then. It avoids a few calls to tophys().

At the same time, as the 'cpu' field is not anymore in thread_info,
TI_CPU is renamed TASK_CPU by this patch.

It also allows to get rid of a couple of
'#ifdef CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE' as ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_ENTRY()
and ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_EXIT() are empty when
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE is not defined.

<title>powerpc: Activate CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch activates CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK which
moves the thread_info into task_struct.

Moving thread_info into task_struct has the following advantages:
  - It protects thread_info from corruption in the case of stack
    overflows.
  - Its address is harder to determine if stack addresses are leaked,
    making a number of attacks more difficult.

This has the following consequences:
  - thread_info is now located at the beginning of task_struct.
  - The 'cpu' field is now in task_struct, and only exists when
    CONFIG_SMP is active.
  - thread_info doesn't have anymore the 'task' field.

This patch:
  - Removes all recopy of thread_info struct when the stack changes.
  - Changes the CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro to point to current.
  - Selects CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK.
  - Modifies raw_smp_processor_id() to get -&gt;cpu from current without
    including linux/sched.h to avoid circular inclusion and without
    including asm/asm-offsets.h to avoid symbol names duplication
    between ASM constants and C constants.
  - Modifies klp_init_thread_info() to take a task_struct pointer
    argument.

The same path -Iarch/$(ARCH) is passed to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS,
KBUILD_AFLAGS, and KBUILD_CFLAGS.

As you see in scripts/Makefile.lib, KBUILD_CPPFLAGS is passed
to c_flags and a_flags as well.

Passing it to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS is enough.

 "Notable changes:

   - Mitigations for Spectre v2 on some Freescale (NXP) CPUs.

   - A large series adding support for pass-through of Nvidia V100 GPUs
     to guests on Power9.

   - Another large series to enable hardware assistance for TLB table
     walk on MPC8xx CPUs.

   - Some preparatory changes to our DMA code, to make way for further
     cleanups from Christoph.

   - Several fixes for our Transactional Memory handling discovered by
     fuzzing the signal return path.

   - Support for generating our system call table(s) from a text file
     like other architectures.

   - A fix to our page fault handler so that instead of generating a
     WARN_ON_ONCE, user accesses of kernel addresses instead print a
     ratelimited and appropriately scary warning.

   - A cosmetic change to make our unhandled page fault messages more
     similar to other arches and also more compact and informative.

   - Freescale updates from Scott:
       "Highlights include elimination of legacy clock bindings use from
        dts files, an 83xx watchdog handler, fixes to old dts interrupt
        errors, and some minor cleanup."

  And many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.

ate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table_32/64/c32/spu.h files.
This patch will have changes which will invokes the script.

This patch will generate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table-
_32/64/c32/spu.h files by the syscall table generation
script invoked by parisc/Makefile and the generated files
against the removed files must be identical.

The generated uapi header file will be included in uapi/-
asm/unistd.h and generated system call table header file
will be included by kernel/systbl.S file.

When building for ppc32 with clang these flags are unsupported:

  -ffixed-r2 and -mmultiple

llvm's lib/Target/PowerPC/PPCRegisterInfo.cpp marks r2 as reserved on
when building for SVR4ABI and !ppc64:

  // The SVR4 ABI reserves r2 and r13
  if (Subtarget.isSVR4ABI()) {
    // We only reserve r2 if we need to use the TOC pointer. If we have no
    // explicit uses of the TOC pointer (meaning we're a leaf function with
    // no constant-pool loads, etc.) and we have no potential uses inside an
    // inline asm block, then we can treat r2 has an ordinary callee-saved
    // register.
    const PPCFunctionInfo *FuncInfo = MF.getInfo&lt;PPCFunctionInfo&gt;();
    if (!TM.isPPC64() || FuncInfo-&gt;usesTOCBasePtr() || MF.hasInlineAsm())
      markSuperRegs(Reserved, PPC::R2);  // System-reserved register
    markSuperRegs(Reserved, PPC::R13); // Small Data Area pointer register
  }

This means we can safely omit -ffixed-r2 when building for 32-bit
targets.

The -mmultiple/-mno-multiple flags are not supported by clang, so
platforms that might support multiple miss out on using multiple word
instructions.

We wrap these flags in cc-option so that when Clang gains support the
kernel will be able use these flags.

Clang 8 can then build a ppc44x_defconfig which boots in Qemu:

  make CC=clang-8 ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu-  ppc44x_defconfig
  ./scripts/config -e CONFIG_DEVTMPFS -d DEVTMPFS_MOUNT
  make CC=clang-8 ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu-

  qemu-system-ppc -M bamboo \
   -kernel arch/powerpc/boot/zImage \
   -dtb arch/powerpc/boot/dts/bamboo.dtb \
   -initrd ~/ppc32-440-rootfs.cpio \
   -nographic -serial stdio -monitor pty -append "console=ttyS0"
