MIPS: Define AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH for ARCH_DLINFO

2020-05-10T08:25:46+00:00

commit 233b2ca181f20674ecad11be90b00814911ce345 upstream. 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.

MIPS: Initial implementation of a VDSO

2015-11-11T07:36:36+00:00

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 Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras Cc: Matthew Fortune Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/11337/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

MIPS: AT_HWCAP aux vector infrastructure

2015-09-03T10:07:59+00:00

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.

MIPS: Fix a preemption issue with thread's FPU defaults

2015-05-12T21:15:49+00:00

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.

mm: fold arch_randomize_brk into ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE

2015-04-14T23:49:05+00:00

The arch_randomize_brk() function is used on several architectures, even those that don't support ET_DYN ASLR. To avoid bulky extern/#define tricks, consolidate the support under CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE for the architectures that support it, while still handling CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK.

MIPS: asm: elf: Set O32 default FPU flags

2015-04-10T13:41:54+00:00

Set good default FPU flags (FR0) for O32 binaries similar to what the kernel does for the N64/N32 ones. This also fixes a regression introduced in commit 46490b572544 ("MIPS: kernel: elf: Improve the overall ABI and FPU mode checks") when MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT is disabled. In that case, the mips_set_personality_fp() did not set the FPU mode at all because it assumed that the FPU mode was already set properly. That led to O32 userland problems.

MIPS: Respect the ISA level in FCSR handling

2015-04-07T23:10:37+00:00

Define the central place the default FCSR value is set from, initialised in `cpu_probe'. Determine the FCSR mask applied to values written to the register with CTC1 in the full emulation mode and via ptrace(2), according to the ISA level of processor hardware or the writability of bits 31:18 if actual FPU hardware is used. Software may rely on FCSR bits whose functions our emulator does not implement, so it should not allow them to be set or software may get confused. For ptrace(2) it's just sanity.

MIPS: kernel: elf: Improve the overall ABI and FPU mode checks

2015-02-17T15:37:39+00:00

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. Cc: Matthew Fortune Cc: Paul Burton Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras
