2014-05-13powerpc/tm: Disable IRQ in tm_recheckpointMichael Neuling
commit e6b8fd028b584ffca7a7255b8971f254932c9fce upstream. We can't take an IRQ when we're about to do a trechkpt as our GPR state is set to user GPR values. We've hit this when running some IBM Java stress tests in the lab resulting in the following dump: cpu 0x3f: Vector: 700 (Program Check) at [c000000007eb3d40] pc: c000000000050074: restore_gprs+0xc0/0x148 lr: 00000000b52a8184 sp: ac57d360 msr: 8000000100201030 current = 0xc00000002c500000 paca = 0xc000000007dbfc00 softe: 0 irq_happened: 0x00 pid = 34535, comm = Pooled Thread # R00 = 00000000b52a8184 R16 = 00000000b3e48fda R01 = 00000000ac57d360 R17 = 00000000ade79bd8 R02 = 00000000ac586930 R18 = 000000000fac9bcc R03 = 00000000ade60000 R19 = 00000000ac57f930 R04 = 00000000f6624918 R20 = 00000000ade79be8 R05 = 00000000f663f238 R21 = 00000000ac218a54 R06 = 0000000000000002 R22 = 000000000f956280 R07 = 0000000000000008 R23 = 000000000000007e R08 = 000000000000000a R24 = 000000000000000c R09 = 00000000b6e69160 R25 = 00000000b424cf00 R10 = 0000000000000181 R26 = 00000000f66256d4 R11 = 000000000f365ec0 R27 = 00000000b6fdcdd0 R12 = 00000000f66400f0 R28 = 0000000000000001 R13 = 00000000ada71900 R29 = 00000000ade5a300 R14 = 00000000ac2185a8 R30 = 00000000f663f238 R15 = 0000000000000004 R31 = 00000000f6624918 pc = c000000000050074 restore_gprs+0xc0/0x148 cfar= c00000000004fe28 dont_restore_vec+0x1c/0x1a4 lr = 00000000b52a8184 msr = 8000000100201030 cr = 24804888 ctr = 0000000000000000 xer = 0000000000000000 trap = 700 This moves tm_recheckpoint to a C function and moves the tm_restore_sprs into that function.

2013-12-04powerpc/signals: Improved mark VSX not saved with small contexts fixMichael Neuling
commit ec67ad82814bee92251fd963bf01c7a173856555 upstream. In a recent patch: commit c13f20ac48328b05cd3b8c19e31ed6c132b44b42 Author: Michael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org> powerpc/signals: Mark VSX not saved with small contexts We fixed an issue but an improved solution was later discussed after the patch was merged. Firstly, this patch doesn't handle the 64bit signals case, which could also hit this issue (but has never been reported). Secondly, the original patch isn't clear what MSR VSX should be set to. The new approach below always clears the MSR VSX bit (to indicate no VSX is in the context) and sets it only in the specific case where VSX is available (ie. when VSX has been used and the signal context passed has space to provide the state). This reverts the original patch and replaces it with the improved solution. It also adds a 64 bit version.

2013-11-29powerpc/signals: Mark VSX not saved with small contextsMichael Neuling
commit c13f20ac48328b05cd3b8c19e31ed6c132b44b42 upstream. The VSX MSR bit in the user context indicates if the context contains VSX state. Currently we set this when the process has touched VSX at any stage. Unfortunately, if the user has not provided enough space to save the VSX state, we can't save it but we currently still set the MSR VSX bit. This patch changes this to clear the MSR VSX bit when the user doesn't provide enough space. This indicates that there is no valid VSX state in the user context. This is needed to support get/set/make/swapcontext for applications that use VSX but only provide a small context. For example, getcontext in glibc provides a smaller context since the VSX registers don't need to be saved over the glibc function call. But since the program calling getcontext may have used VSX, the kernel currently says the VSX state is valid when it's not. If the returned context is then used in setcontext (ie. a small context without VSX but with MSR VSX set), the kernel will refuse the context. This situation has been reported by the glibc community.

2013-07-25powerpc/tm: Fix return of 32bit rt signals to active transactionsMichael Neuling
commit 55e4341850ac56e63a3eefe9583a9000042164fa upstream. Currently we only restore signals which are transactionally suspended but it's possible that the transaction can be restored even when it's active. Most likely this will result in a transactional rollback by the hardware as the transaction will have been doomed by an earlier treclaim. The current code is a legacy of earlier kernel implementations which did software rollback of active transactions in the kernel. That code has now gone but we didn't correctly fix up this part of the signals code which still makes assumptions based on having software rollback. This changes the signal return code to always restore both contexts on 32 bit rt signal return.

2013-07-25powerpc/tm: Fix restoration of MSR on 32bit signal returnMichael Neuling
commit 2c27a18f8736da047bef2b997bdd48efc667e3c9 upstream. Currently we clear out the MSR TM bits on signal return assuming that the signal should never return to an active transaction. This is bogus as the user may do this. It's most likely the transaction will be doomed due to a treclaim but that's a problem for the HW not the kernel. The current code is a legacy of earlier kernel implementations which did software rollback of active transactions in the kernel. That code has now gone but we didn't correctly fix up this part of the signals code which still makes the assumption that it must be returning to a suspended transaction. This pulls out both MSR TM bits from the user supplied context rather than just setting TM suspend. We pull out only the bits needed to ensure the user can't do anything dangerous to the MSR.

commit fee55450710dff32a13ae30b4129ec7b5a4b44d0 upstream. Currently sys_sigreturn() is TM unaware. Therefore, if we take a 32 bit signal without SIGINFO (non RT) inside a transaction, on signal return we don't restore the signal frame correctly. This checks if the signal frame being restoring is an active transaction, and if so, it copies the additional state to ptregs so it can be restored.

2013-07-25powerpc/tm: Fix writing top half of MSR on 32 bit signalsMichael Neuling
commit 1d25f11fdbcc5390d68efd98c28900bfd29b264c upstream. The MSR TM controls are in the top 32 bits of the MSR hence on 32 bit signals, we stick the top half of the MSR in the checkpointed signal context so that the user can access it. Unfortunately, we don't currently write anything to the checkpointed signal context when coming in a from a non transactional process and hence the top MSR bits can contain junk. This updates the 32 bit signal handling code to always write something to the top MSR bits so that users know if the process is transactional or not and the kernel can use it on signal return.

2013-06-01powerpc/tm: Fix userspace stack corruption on signal delivery for active ↵Michael Neuling
transactions When in an active transaction that takes a signal, we need to be careful with the stack. It's possible that the stack has moved back up after the tbegin. The obvious case here is when the tbegin is called inside a function that returns before a tend. In this case, the stack is part of the checkpointed transactional memory state. If we write over this non transactionally or in suspend, we are in trouble because if we get a tm abort, the program counter and stack pointer will be back at the tbegin but our in memory stack won't be valid anymore. To avoid this, when taking a signal in an active transaction, we need to use the stack pointer from the checkpointed state, rather than the speculated state. This ensures that the signal context (written tm suspended) will be written below the stack required for the rollback. The transaction is aborted becuase of the treclaim, so any memory written between the tbegin and the signal will be rolled back anyway. For signals taken in non-TM or suspended mode, we use the normal/non-checkpointed stack pointer.

2012-03-07powerpc: Use set_current_blocked() and block_sigmask()Matt Fleming
As described in e6fa16ab ("signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is pending in the shared queue. Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f28f ("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked") which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code across architectures. In the past some architectures got this code wrong, so using this helper function should stop that from happening again.

2009-03-27powerpc: Sanitize stack pointer in signal handling codeJosh Boyer
On powerpc64 machines running 32-bit userspace, we can get garbage bits in the stack pointer passed into the kernel. Most places handle this correctly, but the signal handling code uses the passed value directly for allocating signal stack frames. This fixes the issue by introducing a get_clean_sp function that returns a sanitized stack pointer. For 32-bit tasks on a 64-bit kernel, the stack pointer is masked correctly. In all other cases, the stack pointer is simply returned. Additionally, we pass an 'is_32' parameter to get_sigframe now in order to get the properly sanitized stack. The callers are know to be 32 or 64-bit statically. Signed-off-by: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2008-10-31powerpc: Fix swapcontext system for VSX + old ucontext sizeMichael Neuling
Since VSX support was added, we now have two sizes of ucontext_t; the older, smaller size without the extra VSX state, and the new larger size with the extra VSX state. A program using the sys_swapcontext system call and supplying smaller ucontext_t structures will currently get an EINVAL error if the task has used VSX (e.g. because of calling library code that uses VSX) and the old_ctx argument is non-NULL (i.e. the program is asking for its current context to be saved). Thus the program will start getting EINVAL errors on calls that previously worked. This commit changes this behaviour so that we don't send an EINVAL in this case. It will now return the smaller context but the VSX MSR bit will always be cleared to indicate that the ucontext_t doesn't include the extra VSX state, even if the task has executed VSX instructions. Both 32 and 64 bit cases are updated. [paulus@samba.org - also fix some access_ok() and get_user() calls] Thanks to Ben Herrenschmidt for noticing this problem.

Mixing FP, VMX and VSX code will get constant architected state. The signals interface is extended to enable access to VSR 0-31 doubleword 1 after discussions with tool chain maintainers. Backward compatibility is maintained. The ptrace interface is also extended to allow access to VSR 0-31 full registers.

Also, when we add VSX in a later patch, we need to be able to set two separate MSR bits here. Signed-off-by: Michael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2008-05-14[POWERPC] Define and use TLF_RESTORE_SIGMASKRoland McGrath
Replace TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK with TLF_RESTORE_SIGMASK and define our own set_restore_sigmask() function. This saves the costly SMP-safe set_bit operation, which we do not need for the sigmask flag since TIF_SIGPENDING always has to be set too.

2008-04-20[POWERPC] Define copy_siginfo_from_user32Roland McGrath
Define the copy_siginfo_from_user32 entry point for powerpc, so that generic CONFIG_COMPAT code can call it. We already had the code rolled into compat_sys_rt_sigqueueinfo, this just moves it out into the canonical function that other arch's define.

2007-10-12[POWERPC] Implement logging of unhandled signalsOlof Johansson
Implement show_unhandled_signals sysctl + support to print when a process is killed due to unhandled signals just as i386 and x86_64 does. Default to having it off, unlike x86 that defaults on. Signed-off-by: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2007-06-14[POWERPC] Merge creation of signal frameBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The code for creating signal frames was still duplicated and split in strange ways between 32 and 64 bits, including the SA_ONSTACK handling being in do_signal on 32 bits but inside handle_rt_signal on 64 bits etc... This moves the 64 bits get_sigframe() to the generic signal.c, cleans it a bit, moves the access_ok() call done by all callers to it as well, and adapts/cleanups the 3 different signal handling cases to use that common function.

2007-06-14[POWERPC] Consolidate do_signalChristoph Hellwig
do_signal has exactly the same behaviour on 32bit and 64bit and 32bit compat on 64bit for handling 32bit signals. Consolidate all these into one common function in signal.c. The only odd left over is the try_to_free in the 32bit version that no other architecture has in mainline (only in i386 for some odd SuSE release). We should probably get rid of it in a separate patch.

2007-06-14[POWERPC] Consolidate restore_sigmaskChristoph Hellwig
restore_sigmask is exactly the same on 32 and 64bit, so move it to common code. Also move _BLOCKABLE to signal.h to avoid defining it multiple times.

2007-06-14[POWERPC] Consolidate sys_sigaltstackChristoph Hellwig
sys_sigaltstack is the same on 32bit and 64 and we can consolidate it to signal.c. The only difference is that the 32bit code uses ints for the unused register paramaters and 64bit unsigned long. I've changed it to unsigned long because it's the same width on 32bit. (I also wonder who came up with this awkward calling convention.. :)) Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2007-06-14[POWERPC] Make syscall restart code more commonBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch moves the code in signal_32.c and signal_64.c for handling syscall restart into a common signal.c file and converge around a single implementation that is based on the 32 bits one, using trap, ccr and r3 rather than the special "result" field for deciding what to do. The "result" field is now pretty much deprecated. We still set it for the sake of whatever might rely on it in userland but we no longer use it's content. This, along with a previous patch that enables ptracers to write to "trap" and "orig_r3" should allow gdb to properly handle syscall restarting.

2006-12-20[POWERPC] Fix register save area alignment for swapcontext syscallPaul Mackerras
For 32-bit processes, the getcontext side of the swapcontext system call (i.e. the saving of the context when the first argument is non-NULL) has to set the ctx->uc_mcontext.uc_regs pointer to the place where it saves the registers. Which it does, but it doesn't ensure that the pointer is 16-byte aligned. 16-byte alignment is needed because the Altivec/VMX registers are saved in there, and they need to be on a 16-byte boundary. This fixes it by ensuring the appropriate alignment of the pointer. This issue was pointed out by Jakub Jelinek. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
