MIPS: SiByte: Bring back cache initialisation

2026-04-11T12:26:35+00:00

commit d62cf1511743526f530a4c169424e50c757f5a5e upstream. Bring back cache initialisation for Broadcom SiByte SB1 cores, which has been removed causing the kernel to hang at bootstrap right after: Dentry cache hash table entries: 524288 (order: 8, 4194304 bytes, linear) Inode-cache hash table entries: 262144 (order: 7, 2097152 bytes, linear) The cause of the problem is R4k cache handlers are also used by Broadcom SiByte SB1 cores, however with a different cache error exception handler and therefore not using CPU_R4K_CACHE_TLB: obj-$(CONFIG_CPU_R4K_CACHE_TLB) += c-r4k.o cex-gen.o tlb-r4k.o obj-$(CONFIG_CPU_SB1) += c-r4k.o cerr-sb1.o cex-sb1.o tlb-r4k.o (from arch/mips/mm/Makefile).

mips: fix HIGHMEM initialization

[ Upstream commit f171b55f1441294344b86edfeaa575ea9673fd23 ] Commit 6faea3422e3b ("arch, mm: streamline HIGHMEM freeing") overzealously removed mem_init_free_highmem() function that beside freeing high memory pages checked for CPU support for high memory as a prerequisite. Partially restore mem_init_free_highmem() with a new highmem_init() name and make it discard high memory in case there is no CPU support for it.

MIPS: mm: kmalloc tlb_vpn array to avoid stack overflow

2025-11-29T12:36:05+00:00

Owing to Config4.MMUSizeExt and VTLB/FTLB MMU features later MIPSr2+ cores can have more than 64 TLB entries. Therefore allocate an array for uniquification instead of placing too an small array on the stack. Fixes: 35ad7e181541 ("MIPS: mm: tlb-r4k: Uniquify TLB entries on init") Co-developed-by: Maciej W.

MIPS: mm: Prevent a TLB shutdown on initial uniquification

2025-11-21T12:23:21+00:00

Depending on the particular CPU implementation a TLB shutdown may occur if multiple matching entries are detected upon the execution of a TLBP or the TLBWI/TLBWR instructions. Given that we don't know what entries we have been handed we need to be very careful with the initial TLB setup and avoid all these instructions. Therefore read all the TLB entries one by one with the TLBR instruction, bypassing the content addressing logic, and truncate any large pages in place so as to avoid a case in the second step where an incoming entry for a large page at a lower address overlaps with a replacement entry chosen at another index. Then preinitialize the TLB using addresses outside our usual unique range and avoiding clashes with any entries received, before making the usual call to local_flush_tlb_all(). This fixes (at least) R4x00 cores if TLBP hits multiple matching TLB entries (SGI IP22 PROM for examples sets up all TLBs to the same virtual address). Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

mips: mm: convert __flush_dcache_pages() to __flush_dcache_folio_pages()

2025-09-21T21:22:06+00:00

Let's make it clearer that we are operating within a single folio by providing both the folio and the page. This implies that for flush_dcache_folio() we'll now avoid one more page->folio lookup, and that we can safely drop the "nth_page" usage. While at it, drop the "extern" from the function declaration.

MIPS: Don't use %pK through printk

Restricted pointers ("%pK") are not meant to be used through printk(). It can unintentionally expose security sensitive, raw pointer values. Use regular pointer formatting instead.

MIPS: mm: tlb-r4k: Uniquify TLB entries on init

2025-07-16T18:01:07+00:00

Hardware or bootloader will initialize TLB entries to any value, which may collide with kernel's UNIQUE_ENTRYHI value. On MIPS microAptiv/M5150 family of cores this will trigger machine check exception and cause boot failure. On M5150 simulation this could happen 7 times out of 1000 boots. Replace local_flush_tlb_all() with r4k_tlb_uniquify() which probes each TLB ENTRIHI unique value for collisions before it's written, and in case of collision try a different ASID.

arch, mm: make releasing of memory to page allocator more explicit

2025-03-18T05:06:53+00:00

The point where the memory is released from memblock to the buddy allocator is hidden inside arch-specific mem_init()s and the call to memblock_free_all() is needlessly duplicated in every artiste cure and after introduction of arch_mm_preinit() hook, mem_init() implementation on many architecture only contains the call to memblock_free_all(). Pull memblock_free_all() call into mm_core_init() and drop mem_init() on relevant architectures to make it more explicit where the free memory is released from memblock to the buddy allocator and to reduce code duplication in architecture specific code.
