2017-01-03MIPS: elfcore: add correct copy_regs implementationsMarcin Nowakowski1-0/+6
MIPS does not currently define ELF_CORE_COPY_REGS macros and as a result the generic implementation is used. The generic version attempts to do directly map (struct pt_regs) into (elf_gregset_t), which isn't correct for MIPS platforms and also triggers a BUG() at runtime in include/linux/elfcore.h:16 (BUG_ON(sizeof(*elfregs) != sizeof(*regs))) [ralf@linux-mips.org: Add semicolons to the macro definitions as I do not apply https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/14588/ for now.] Signed-off-by: Marcin Nowakowski <marcin.nowakowski@imgtec.com> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/14586/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

2016-08-02MIPS: non-exec stack & heap when non-exec PT_GNU_STACK is presentPaul Burton1-0/+3
The stack and heap have both been executable by default on MIPS until now. This patch changes the default to be non-executable, but only for ELF binaries with a non-executable PT_GNU_STACK header present. This does apply to both the heap & the stack, despite the name PT_GNU_STACK, and this matches the behaviour of other architectures like ARM & x86. Current MIPS toolchains do not produce the PT_GNU_STACK header, which means that we can rely upon this patch not changing the behaviour of existing binaries. The new default will only take effect for newly compiled binaries once toolchains are updated to support PT_GNU_STACK, and since those binaries are newly compiled they can be compiled expecting the change in default behaviour. Again this matches the way in which the ARM & x86 architectures handled their implementations of non-executable memory.

2016-07-28MIPS: Define AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH for ARCH_DLINFOJames Hogan1-0/+1
AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH should be defined with the maximum number of NEW_AUX_ENT entries that ARCH_DLINFO can contain, but it wasn't defined for MIPS at all even though ARCH_DLINFO will contain one NEW_AUX_ENT for the VDSO address. This shouldn't be a problem as AT_VECTOR_SIZE_BASE includes space for AT_BASE_PLATFORM which MIPS doesn't use, but lets define it now and add the comment above ARCH_DLINFO as found in several other architectures to remind future modifiers of ARCH_DLINFO to keep AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH up to date.

2016-05-13MIPS: Support R_MIPS_PC{21,26} rela-style relocsPaul Burton1-0/+5
MIPS64 code uses rela-style relocs, and MIPS64r6 modules may include the new R_MIPS_PC21 & R_MIPS_PC26 relocations. We thus need to support these relocations in order to load MIPS64r6 kernel modules. They are similar to the existing R_MIPS_PC16 relocation but applying to a wider field. Implement support for them by genericising the existing R_MIPS_PC16 implementation such that it can be used for different field widths, and calling it for all 3 reloc types.

2016-02-11mips: Differentiate between 32 and 64 bit ELF headerDaniel Wagner1-2/+7
Depending on the configuration either the 32 or 64 bit version of elf_check_arch() is defined. parse_crash_elf{32|64}_headers() does some basic verification of the ELF header via vmcore_elf{32|64}_check_arch() which happen to map to elf_check_arch(). Since the implementation 32 and 64 bit version of elf_check_arch() differ, we use the wrong type: In file included from include/linux/elf.h:4:0, from fs/proc/vmcore.c:13: fs/proc/vmcore.c: In function 'parse_crash_elf64_headers': >> arch/mips/include/asm/elf.h:228:23: error: initialization from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types] struct elfhdr *__h = (hdr); \ ^ include/linux/crash_dump.h:41:37: note: in expansion of macro 'elf_check_arch' #define vmcore_elf64_check_arch(x) (elf_check_arch(x) || vmcore_elf_check_arch_cross(x)) ^ fs/proc/vmcore.c:1015:4: note: in expansion of macro 'vmcore_elf64_check_arch' !vmcore_elf64_check_arch(&ehdr) || ^ Therefore, we rather define vmcore_elf{32|64}_check_arch() as a basic machine check and use it also in binfm_elf?32.c as well.

Ensure that the setting of the bit in the binary matches one in any intepreter used. Set the thread's initial FCSR contents according to the value of the EF_MIPS_NAN2008. Set the values of the FCSR ABS2008 and NAN2008 bits both to the same value if possible, to take the approach taken with existing FPU hardware into account. As of now all implementations have both bits hardwired to the same value, that is both are fixed at 0 or both are fixed at 1, even though the architecture allows for implementations where the amount of control implemented with each of these two individual bits is independent of each other.

2015-11-11MIPS: Initial implementation of a VDSOAlex Smith1-0/+7
Add an initial implementation of a proper (i.e. an ELF shared library) VDSO. With this commit it does not export any symbols, it only replaces the current signal return trampoline page. A later commit will add user implementations of gettimeofday()/clock_gettime(). To support both new toolchains and old ones which don't generate ABI flags section, we define its content manually and then use a tool (genvdso) to patch up the section to have the correct name and type. genvdso also extracts symbol offsets ({,rt_}sigreturn) needed by the kernel, and generates a C file containing a "struct mips_vdso_image" containing both the VDSO data and these offsets. This C file is compiled into the kernel. On 64-bit kernels we require a different VDSO for each supported ABI, so we may build up to 3 different VDSOs. The VDSO to use is selected by the mips_abi structure. A kernel/user shared data page is created and mapped below the VDSO image. This is currently empty, but will be used by the user time function implementations which are added later. [markos.chandras@imgtec.com: - Add more comments - Move abi detection in genvdso.h since it's the get_symbol function that needs it. - Add an R6 specific way to calculate the base address of VDSO in order to avoid the branch instruction which affects performance. - Do not patch .gnu.attributes since it's not needed for dynamic linking. - Simplify Makefile a little bit. - checkpatch fixes - Restrict VDSO support for binutils < 2.25 for pre-R6 - Include atomic64.h for O32 variant on MIPS64] Signed-off-by: Alex Smith <alex.smith@imgtec.com> Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@imgtec.com> Cc: Matthew Fortune <matthew.fortune@imgtec.com> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/11337/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
2015-09-03MIPS: AT_HWCAP aux vector infrastructurePaul Burton1-1/+3
In order for userland to determine whether various features are safe to use, it will need to know both that the hardware supports those features and that the kernel is recent enough & configured appropriately to support them. For example under the O32 modeless FP proposal the dynamic linker & ifunc resolvers will need this information. The kernel is the only thing in a position to know availability accurately, so the kernel needs to provide the information to userland. This patch introduces the infrastructure to provide the AT_HWCAP aux vector to userland in order to provide that information. It also defines the 2 currently specified flags, which indicate MIPSr6 & MSA support.

Fix "BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible" reported in accesses to thread's FPU defaults: the value to initialise FSCR to at program startup, the FCSR r/w mask and the contents of FIR in full FPU emulation, removing a regression introduced with 9b26616c [MIPS: Respect the ISA level in FCSR handling] and f6843626 [MIPS: math-emu: Set FIR feature flags for full emulation]. Use `boot_cpu_data' to obtain the data from, following the approach that `cpu_has_*' macros take and avoiding the call to `smp_processor_id' made in the reference to `current_cpu_data'. The contents of FSCR have to be consistent across processors in an SMP system, the settings there must not change as a thread is migrated across processors. And the contents of FIR are guaranteed to be consistent in FPU emulation, by definition. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

2015-02-17MIPS: kernel: elf: Improve the overall ABI and FPU mode checksMarkos Chandras1-4/+6
The previous implementation did not cover all possible FPU combinations and it silently allowed ABI incompatible objects to be loaded with the wrong ABI. For example, the previous logic would set the FP_64 ABI as the matching ABI for an FP_XX object combined with an FP_64A object. This was wrong, and the matching ABI should have been FP_64A. The previous logic is now replaced with a new one which determines the appropriate FPU mode to be used rather than the FP ABI. This has the advantage that the entire logic is much simpler since it is the FPU mode we are interested in rather than the FP ABI resulting to code simplifications. This also removes the now obsolete FP32XX_HYBRID_FPRS option.

2014-11-24MIPS: Support for hybrid FPRsPaul Burton1-0/+3
Hybrid FPRs is a scheme where scalar FP registers are 64b wide, but accesses to odd indexed single registers use bits 63:32 of the preceeding even indexed 64b register. In this mode all FP code except that built for the plain FP64 ABI can execute correctly. Most notably a combination of FP64A & FP32 code can execute correctly, allowing for existing FP32 binaries to be linked with new FP64A binaries that can make use of 64 bit FP & MSA. Hybrid FPRs are implemented by setting both the FR & FRE bits, trapping & emulating single precision FP instructions (via Reserved Instruction exceptions) whilst allowing others to execute natively. It therefore has a penalty in terms of execution speed, and should only be used when no fully native mode can be. As more binaries are recompiled to use either the FPXX or FP64(A) ABIs, the need for hybrid FPRs should diminish. However in the short to mid term it allows for a gradual transition towards that world, rather than a complete ABI break which is not feasible for some users & not desirable for many. A task will be executed using the hybrid FPR scheme when its TIF_HYBRID_FPREGS flag is set & TIF_32BIT_FPREGS is clear. A further patch will set the flags as necessary, this patch simply adds the infrastructure necessary for the hybrid FPR mode to work.

2014-01-14MIPS: Support for 64-bit FP with O32 binariesPaul Burton1-3/+28
CPUs implementing MIPS32 R2 may include a 64-bit FPU, just as MIPS64 CPUs do. In order to preserve backwards compatibility a 64-bit FPU will act like a 32-bit FPU (by accessing doubles from the least significant 32 bits of an even-odd pair of FP registers) when the Status.FR bit is zero, again just like a mips64 CPU. The standard O32 ABI is defined expecting a 32-bit FPU, however recent toolchains support use of a 64-bit FPU from an O32 MIPS32 executable. When an ELF executable is built to use a 64-bit FPU a new flag (EF_MIPS_FP64) is set in the ELF header. With this patch the kernel will check the EF_MIPS_FP64 flag when executing an O32 binary, and set Status.FR accordingly. The addition of O32 64-bit FP support lessens the opportunity for optimisation in the FPU emulator, so a CONFIG_MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT Kconfig option is introduced to allow this support to be disabled for those that don't require it. Inspired by an earlier patch by Leonid Yegoshin, but implemented more cleanly & correctly.

2010-12-16MIPS: Don't clobber personality high bits.David Daney1-2/+6
The high bits of current->personality carry settings that we don't want to clobber on each exec. Only clobber them if the lower bits that indicate either PER_LINUX or PER_LINUX32 are invalid. The clobbering prevents us from using useful bits like ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE.

2010-04-12MIPS: Preliminary VDSODavid Daney1-0/+4
This is a preliminary patch to add a vdso to all user processes. Still missing are ELF headers and .eh_frame information. But it is enough to allow us to move signal trampolines off of the stack. Note that emulation of branch delay slots in the FPU emulator still requires the stack. We allocate a single page (the vdso) and write all possible signal trampolines into it. The stack is moved down by one page and the vdso is mapped into this space.

2010-02-27MIPS: Allow the auxv's elf_platform entry to be set.David Daney1-7/+7
The userspace runtime linker uses the elf_platform to find the libraries optimized for the current CPU archecture variant. First we need to allow it to be set to something other than NULL. Follow-on patches will set some values for specific CPUs. GLIBC already does the right thing. The kernel just needs to supply good data.

2009-07-03MIPS: 64-bit: Fix o32 core dumpYong Zhang1-0/+4
If an o32 process generates a core dump on a 64 bit kernel, the core file will not be correctly recognized. This is because ELF_CORE_COPY_REGS and ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS are not correctly defined for o32 and will use the default register set which would be CONFIG_64BIT in asm/elf.h. So we'll switch to use the right register defines in this situation by checking for WANT_COMPAT_REG_H and use the right defines of ELF_CORE_COPY_REGS and ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS.
