arch/mips/mm/cache.c provides our implementation of the cpu_cache_init()
function, but doesn't include the asm/setup.h header which declares it.
This leads to a warning from sparse:
arch/mips/mm/cache.c:274:6: warning: symbol 'cpu_cache_init' was not
declared. Should it be static?
Fix this by including asm/setup.h to get the declaration of
cpu_cache_init().

Cache management is implemented separately for Cavium Octeon CPUs, so
r4k_blast_[id]cache aren't available. Instead for Octeon perform a local
icache flush using local_flush_icache_range(), and for other platforms
which don't use c-r4k.c use __flush_cache_all() / flush_icache_all().

Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have
a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing
support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed
when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file.
This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h
in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. The advantage
in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers;
adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what
headers we are effectively using.
Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for
export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance
for the presence of either and replace as needed.

The cacheflush(2) system call uses flush_icache_range() to flush a range
of usermode addresses from the icache, so change it to utilise the new
__flush_icache_user_range() API to allow the more generic
flush_icache_range() to be changed to work on kernel addresses only.

flush_icache_range() is used for both user addresses (i.e.
cacheflush(2)), and kernel addresses (as the API documentation
describes).
This isn't really suitable however for Enhanced Virtual Addressing (EVA)
where cache operations on usermode addresses must use a different
instruction, and the protected cache ops assume user addresses, making
flush_icache_range() ineffective on kernel addresses.
Split out a new __flush_icache_user_range() and
__local_flush_icache_user_range() for users which actually want to flush
usermode addresses (note that flush_icache_user_range() already exists
on various architectures but with different arguments).
The implementation of flush_icache_range() will be changed in an
upcoming commit to use unprotected normal cache ops so as to always work
on the kernel mode address space.

It's possible for pages to become visible prior to update_mmu_cache
running if a thread within the same address space preempts the current
thread or runs simultaneously on another CPU. That is, the following
scenario is possible:
CPU0 CPU1
write to page
flush_dcache_page
flush_icache_page
set_pte_at
map page
update_mmu_cache
If CPU1 maps the page in between CPU0's set_pte_at, which marks it valid
& visible, and update_mmu_cache where the dcache flush occurs then CPU1s
icache will fill from stale data (unless it fills from the dcache, in
which case all is good, but most MIPS CPUs don't have this property).
Commit 4d46a67a3eb8 ("MIPS: Fix race condition in lazy cache flushing.")
attempted to fix that by performing the dcache flush in
flush_icache_page such that it occurs before the set_pte_at call makes
the page visible. However it has the problem that not all code that
writes to pages exposed to userland call flush_icache_page. There are
many callers of set_pte_at under mm/ and only 2 of them do call
flush_icache_page. Thus the race window between a page becoming visible
& being coherent between the icache & dcache remains open in some cases.
To illustrate some of the cases, a WARN was added to __update_cache with
this patch applied that triggered in cases where a page about to be
flushed from the dcache was not the last page provided to
flush_icache_page. That is, backtraces were obtained for cases in which
the race window is left open without this patch. The 2 standout examples
follow.
When forking a process:
[ 15.271842] [<80417630>] __update_cache+0xcc/0x188
[ 15.277274] [<80530394>] copy_page_range+0x56c/0x6ac

[ 14.451369] [<80538d88>] move_page_tables+0x414/0x498

[ 14.485137] [<80413808>] handle_sys+0x128/0x14c
These code paths write into a page, call flush_dcache_page then call
set_pte_at without flush_icache_page inbetween. The end result is that
the icache can become corrupted & userland processes may execute
unexpected or invalid code, typically resulting in a reserved
instruction exception, a trap or a segfault.
Fix this race condition fully by performing any cache maintenance
required to keep the icache & dcache in sync in set_pte_at, before the
page is made valid. This has the added bonus of ensuring the cache
maintenance always happens in one location, rather than being duplicated
in flush_icache_page & update_mmu_cache. It also matches the way other
architectures solve the same problem (see arm, ia64 & powerpc).

The following patch will expose __update_cache to highmem pages. Handle
them by mapping them in for the duration of the cache maintenance, just
like in __flush_dcache_page. The code for that isn't shared because we
need the page address in __update_cache so sharing became messy. Given
that the entirity is an extra 5 lines, just duplicate it.

When flush_dcache_page is called on an executable page, that page is
about to be provided to userland & we can presume that the icache
contains no valid entries for its address range. However if the icache
does not fill from the dcache then we cannot presume that the pages
content has been written back as far as the memories that the dcache
will fill from (ie. L2 or further out).
This was being done for lowmem pages, but not for highmem which can lead
to icache corruption. Fix this by mapping highmem pages & flushing their
content from the dcache in __flush_dcache_page before providing the page
to userland, just as is done for lowmem pages.

Let's define page_mapped() to be true for compound pages if any
sub-pages of the compound page is mapped (with PMD or PTE).
On other hand page_mapcount() return mapcount for this particular small
page.
This will make cases like page_get_anon_vma() behave correctly once we
allow huge pages to be mapped with PTE.
Most users outside core-mm should use page_mapcount() instead of
page_mapped().

Execution of break instruction, trap instructions, emulation of unaligned
loads or floating point instructions - anything that tries to read the
instruction's opcode from userspace - needs read access to a page.
RIXI (Read Inhibit / Execute Inhibit) support however allows the creation of
pags that are executable but not readable. On such a mapping the attempted
load of the opcode by the kernel is going to cause an endless loop of
page faults.
The quick workaround for this is to disable the combinations that the kernel
currently isn't able to handle which are executable mappings.

The lazy cache flushing implemented in the MIPS kernel suffers from a
race condition that is exposed by do_set_pte() in mm/memory.c.
A pre-condition is a file-system that writes to the page from the CPU
in its readpage method and then calls flush_dcache_page(). One example
is ubifs. Another pre-condition is that the dcache flush is postponed
in __flush_dcache_page().
Upon a page fault for an executable mapping not existing in the
page-cache, the following will happen:
1. Write to the page
2. flush_dcache_page
3. flush_icache_page
4. set_pte_at
5. update_mmu_cache (commits the flush of a dcache-dirty page)
Between steps 4 and 5 another thread can hit the same page and it will
encounter a valid pte. Because the data still is in the L1 dcache the CPU
will fetch stale data from L2 into the icache and execute garbage.
This fix moves the commit of the cache flush to step 3 to close the
race window. It also reduces the amount of flushes on non-executable
mappings because we never enter __flush_dcache_page() for non-aliasing
CPUs.
Regressions can occur in drivers that mistakenly relies on the
flush_dcache_page() in get_user_pages() for DMA operations.

Multicore MIPSes without I/D hardware coherency suffered from a race
condition in the page fault handler. The page table entry was
published before any pending lazy D-cache flush was committed, hence
it allowed execution of stale page cache data by other VPEs in the
system.
To make the cache handling safe we need to perform flushing already in
the set_pte_at function. MIPSes without coherent I-caches can get a
small increase in flushes due to the unavailability of the execute
flag in set_pte_at.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"At over 200 commits, covering almost all supported architectures, this
was a pretty active cycle for KVM. Changes include:
- a lot of s390 changes: optimizations, support for migration, GDB
support and more
- ARM changes are pretty small: support for the PSCI 0.2 hypercall
interface on both the guest and the host (the latter acked by
Catalin)
- initial POWER8 and little-endian host support
- support for running u-boot on embedded POWER targets
- pretty large changes to MIPS too, completing the userspace
interface and improving the handling of virtualized timer hardware
- for x86, a larger set of changes is scheduled for 3.17. Still, we
have a few emulator bugfixes and support for running nested
fully-virtualized Xen guests (para-virtualized Xen guests have
always worked). And some optimizations too.
The only missing architecture here is ia64. It's not a coincidence
that support for KVM on ia64 is scheduled for removal in 3.17"

commit 3747069b25e419f6b51395f48127e9812abc3596 upstream.
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
and are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
the arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
related content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get
rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
Here, we remove all the MIPS __cpuinit from C code and __CPUINIT
from asm files. MIPS is interesting in this respect, because there
are also uasm users hiding behind their own renamed versions of the
__cpuinit macros.

Commit b3594a089f1c17ff919f8f78505c3f20e1f6f8ce (lmo) rsp.
351336929ccf222ae38ff0cb7a8dd5fd5c6236a0 (kernel.org) break non-GPL modules
that use __vmalloc() or any of the vmap(), vm_map_ram(), etc functions on
MIPS.
All those functions are EXPORT_SYMBOL() so are meant to be allowed to be
used by non-GPL kernel modules. These calls all take page protection as
an argument which is normally a constant like PAGE_KERNEL.
This commit causes all protection constants like PAGE_KERNEL to not be
constants and instead to contain the GPL-only symbol _page_cachable_default.
This means that all calls to __vmalloc(), vmap(), etc, cause non-GPL
modules to fail to link with the complaint that they are trying to use the
GPL-only symbol _page_cachable_default...
Change EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(_page_cachable_default) to EXPORT_SYMBOL() for
non-GPL modules that call __vmalloc(), vmap(), vm_map_ram() etc.

The SmartMIPS ASE specifies how Read Inhibit (RI) and eXecute Inhibit
(XI) bits in the page tables work. The upper two bits of EntryLo{0,1}
are RI and XI when the feature is enabled in the PageGrain register.
SmartMIPS only covers 32-bit systems. Cavium Octeon+ extends this to
64-bit systems by continuing to place the RI and XI bits in the top of
EntryLo even when EntryLo is 64-bits wide.
Because we need to carry the RI and XI bits in the PTE, the layout of
the PTE is changed. There is a two instruction overhead in the TLB
refill hot path to get the EntryLo bits into the proper position.
Also the TLB load exception has to probe the TLB to check if RI or XI
caused the exception.
Also of note is that the layout of the PTE bits is done at compile and
runtime rather than statically. In the 32-bit case this allows for
the same number of PFN bits as before the patch as the _PAGE_HUGE is
not supported in 32-bit kernels (we have _PAGE_NO_EXEC and
_PAGE_NO_READ instead of _PAGE_READ and _PAGE_HUGE).
The patch is tested on Cavium Octeon+, but should also work on 32-bit
systems with the Smart-MIPS ASE.

since that day we had generic_osync_around with only minor changes and the
great "For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give
O_DSYNC" comment. This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC
semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics. After Jan's O_SYNC
patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly
simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to
vfs_fsync_range and when not.
This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's
numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC
flag. To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to
both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make
sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers.
This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can
just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only
places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition. Drivers and
network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the
full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set. The few places setting O_SYNC for
lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe.
We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path
to make sure we always get these sane options.
Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a
O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op. We try to repair it by using it for
the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional
O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.

trap_init issues flush_icache_range(), which uses ipi functions to
get icache flushing done on all cpus. But this is done before interrupts
are enabled and caused WARN_ON messages. This changeset introduces
a new local_flush_icache_range() and uses it before interrupts (and
additional CPUs) are enabled to avoid this problem.

dma_cache_(wback|inv|wback_inv) were the earliest attempt on a generalized
cache managment API for I/O purposes. Originally it was basically the raw
MIPS low level cache API exported to the entire world. The API has
suffered from a lack of documentation, was not very widely used unlike it's
more modern brothers and can easily be replaced by dma_cache_sync. So
remove it rsp. turn the surviving bits back into an arch private API, as
discussed on linux-arch.

It may not be perfect yet but the SB1 code is badly borken and has
horrible performance issues.
Downside: This seriously breaks support for pass 1 parts of the BCM1250
where indexed cacheops don't work quite reliable but I seem to be the
last one on the planet with a pass 1 part anyway.

Extend the set of "__attribute__" shortcut macros, and remove identical
(and now superfluous) definitions from a couple of source files.
based on a page at robert love's blog:
http://rlove.org/log/2005102601
extend the set of shortcut macros defined in compiler-gcc.h with the
following:
#define __packed __attribute__((packed))
#define __weak __attribute__((weak))
#define __naked __attribute__((naked))
#define __noreturn __attribute__((noreturn))
#define __pure __attribute__((pure))
#define __aligned(x) __attribute__((aligned(x)))
#define __printf(a,b) __attribute__((format(printf,a,b)))
Once these are in place, it's up to subsystem maintainers to decide if they
want to take advantage of them. there is already a strong precedent for
using shortcuts like this in the source tree.
The ones that might give people pause are "__aligned" and "__printf", but
shortcuts for both of those are already in use, and in some ways very
confusingly. note the two very different definitions for a macro named
"ALIGNED":
drivers/net/sgiseeq.c:#define ALIGNED(x) ((((unsigned long)(x)) + 0xf) & ~(0xf))
drivers/scsi/ultrastor.c:#define ALIGNED(x) __attribute__((aligned(x)))
also:
include/acpi/platform/acgcc.h:
#define ACPI_PRINTF_LIKE(c) __attribute__ ((__format__ (__printf__, c, c+1)))
Given the precedent, then, it seems logical to at least standardize on a
consistent set of these macros.

On a CPU with aliases the IDE core needs to flush caches in the special
IDE variants of insw, insl etc. If IDE support is built as a module this
will only work if local_flush_data_cache_page happens is exported as a
module.
As per policy export local_flush_data_cache_page as GPL symbol only.

On the 34K the redundant cache operations were causing excessive stalls
resulting in realtime code running on the second VPE missing its deadline.
For all other platforms this patch is just a significant performance
improvment as illustrated by below benchmark numbers.
