2012-11-23MIPS: Fix crash that occurs when function tracing is enabledAl Cooper1-4/+4
A recent patch changed some irq routines from inlines to functions. These routines are called by the tracer code. Now that they're functions, if they are compiled for function tracing they will call the tracer and crash the system due to infinite recursion. The fix disables tracing in these functions by using "notrace" in the function definition.

2012-11-09MIPS: Make irqflags.h functions preempt-safe for non-mipsr2 cpusJim Quinlan2-1/+178
For non MIPSr2 processors, such as the BMIPS 5000, calls to arch_local_irq_disable() and others may be preempted, and in doing so a stale value may be restored to c0_status. This fix disables preemption for such processors prior to the call and enables it after the call. Those functions that needed this fix have been "outlined" to mips-atomic.c, as they are no longer good candidates for inlining. This bug was observed in a BMIPS 5000, occuring once every few hours in a continuous reboot test. It was traced to the write_lock_irq() function which was being invoked in release_task() in exit.c. By placing a number of "nops" inbetween the mfc0/mtc0 pair in arch_local_irq_disable(), which is called by write_lock_irq(), we were able to greatly increase the occurance of this bug. Similarly, the application of this commit silenced the bug.

2012-10-17MIPS: Make __{,n,u}delay declarations match definitions and generic delay.hDavid Daney1-1/+5
At some recent point arch/mips/include/asm/delay.h has started being included into csrc-octeon.c where the __?delay() functions are defined. This causes a compile failure due to conflicting declarations and definitions of the functions. It turns out that the generic definitions in arch/mips/lib/delay.c also conflict. Proposed fix: Declare the functions to take unsigned long parameters just like asm-generic (and x86) does. Update __delay to agree (__ndelay and __udelay need no change). Bonus: Get rid of 'inline' from __delay() definition, as it is globally visible, and the compiler should be making this decision itself (it does in fact inline the function without being told to).

We can save the 451 lines of code that comprise memcpy-inatomic.S at the expense of a single instruction in the memcpy prolog. We also use an additional register (t6), so this may cause increased register pressure in some places as well. But I think the reduced maintenance burden, of not having two nearly identical implementations, makes it worth it.

2012-02-01mips: use the the PCI controller's io_map_baseMichael S. Tsirkin1-2/+2
commit eab90291d35438bcebf7c3dc85be66d0f24e3002 (mips: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP) failed to take into account the PCI controller's io_map_base for mapping IO BARs.

2008-01-29[MIPS] R4000/R4400 daddiu erratum workaroundMaciej W. Rozycki5-31/+130
This complements the generic R4000/R4400 errata workaround code and adds bits for the daddiu problem. In most places it just modifies handwritten assembly code so that the assembler is allowed to use a temporary register as daddiu may now be treated as a macro that expands to a sequence of li and daddu. It is the AT register or, where AT is unavailable or used explicitly for another purpose, an explicitly-named register is selected, using the .set at=<reg> feature added recently to gas. This feature is only used if CONFIG_CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS has been set, so if the workaround remains disabled, the required version of binutils stays unchanged. Similarly, daddiu instructions put in branch delay slots in noreorder fragments are now taken out of them and the assembler is allowed to reorder them itself as possible (which it does making the whole idea of scheduling them into delay slots manually questionable). Also in the very few places where such a simple conversion was not possible, a handcoded longer sequence is implemented. Other than that there are changes to code responsible for building the TLB fault and page clear/copy handlers to avoid daddiu as appropriate. These are only effective if the erratum is verified to be present at the run time. Finally there is a trivial update to __delay(), because it uses daddiu in a branch delay slot.

I noticed that many source files include <linux/pci.h> while they do not appear to need it. Here is an attempt to clean it all up. In order to find all possibly affected files, I searched for all files including <linux/pci.h> but without any other occurence of "pci" or "PCI". I removed the include statement from all of these, then I compiled an allmodconfig kernel on both i386 and x86_64 and fixed the false positives manually.

2007-02-20[MIPS] Fixup copy_from_user_inatomicRalf Baechle2-1/+437
From the 01408c4939479ec46c15aa7ef6e2406be50eeeca log message: The problem is that when we write to a file, the copy from userspace to pagecache is first done with preemption disabled, so if the source address is not immediately available the copy fails *and* *zeros* *the* *destination*. This is a problem because a concurrent read (which admittedly is an odd thing to do) might see zeros rather that was there before the write, or what was there after, or some mixture of the two (any of these being a reasonable thing to see). If the copy did fail, it will immediately be retried with preemption re-enabled so any transient problem with accessing the source won't cause an error. The first copying does not need to zero any uncopied bytes, and doing so causes the problem. It uses copy_from_user_atomic rather than copy_from_user so the simple expedient is to change copy_from_user_atomic to *not* zero out bytes on failure. < --- end cite --- > This patch finally implements at least a not so pretty solution by duplicating the relevant part of __copy_user.
