[ Upstream commit e43dce8a0bc09083ea1145a1a0c61d83cbe72d97 ]

The "small" argument to do_sys_ftruncate indicates if &gt; 32-bit size
should be reject, but all the arch-specific compat ftruncate64
implementations get this wrong.  Merge do_sys_ftruncate and
ksys_ftruncate, replace the integer as boolean small flag with a
descriptive one about LFS semantics, and use it correctly in the
architecture-specific ftruncate64 implementations.

<id>urn:sha1:540760b77b8fc49d39d1b2b76196e5ec57711a32</id>
<content type='text'>
Before the introduction of the EHINV feature, which lets software mark
TLB entries invalid, certain older implementations of the MIPS ISA were
equipped with an analogous bit, as a vendor extension, which however is
hidden from software and only ever set at reset, and then any software
write clears it, making the intended TLB entry valid.

This feature makes it unsafe to read a TLB entry with TLBR, modify the
page mask, and write the entry back with TLBWI, because this operation
will implicitly clear the hidden bit and this may create a duplicate
entry, as with the presence of the hidden bit there is no guarantee all
the entries across the TLB are unique each.

Usually the firmware has already uniquified TLB entries before handing
control over, in which case we only need to guarantee at bootstrap no
clash will happen with the VPN2 values chosen in local_flush_tlb_all().

However with systems such as Mikrotik RB532 we get handed the TLB as at
reset, with the hidden bit set across the entries and possibly duplicate
entries present.  This then causes a machine check exception when page
sizes are reset in r4k_tlb_uniquify() and prevents the system from
booting.

Rewrite the algorithm used in r4k_tlb_uniquify() then such as to avoid
the reuse of ASID/VPN values across the TLB.  Get rid of global entries
first as they may be blocking the entire address space, e.g. 16 256MiB
pages will exhaust the whole address space of a 32-bit CPU and a single
big page can exhaust the 32-bit compatibility space on a 64-bit CPU.

Details of the algorithm chosen are given across the code itself.

<id>urn:sha1:74283cfe216392c7b776ebf6045b5b15ed9dffcd</id>
<content type='text'>
Hardware that supports the EHINV feature, mandatory for R6 ISA and FTLB
implementation, lets software mark TLB entries invalid, which eliminates
the need to ensure no duplicate matching entries are ever created.  This
feature is already used by local_flush_tlb_all(), via the UNIQUE_ENTRYHI
macro, making the preceding call to r4k_tlb_uniquify() superfluous.

The next change will also modify uniquification code such that it'll
become incompatible with the FTLB and MMID features, as well as MIPSr6
CPUs that do not implement 4KiB pages.

Therefore prevent r4k_tlb_uniquify() from being used on EHINV hardware,
as denoted by `cpu_has_tlbinv'.

<content type='text'>
With a 32-bit kernel running on 64-bit MIPS hardware the hardcoded value
of `cpu_vmbits' only records the size of compatibility useg and does not
reflect the size of native xuseg or the complete range of values allowed
in the VPN2 field of TLB entries.

An upcoming change will need the actual VPN2 value range permitted even
in 32-bit kernel configurations, so always include the `vmbits' member
in `struct cpuinfo_mips' and probe for SEGBITS when running on 64-bit
hardware and resorting to the currently hardcoded value of 31 on 32-bit
processors.  No functional change for users of `cpu_vmbits'.

It was only GCC 10 that fixed a MIPS64r6 code generation issue with a
`__multi3' libcall inefficiently produced to perform 64-bit widening
multiplication while suitable machine instructions exist to do such a
calculation.  The fix went in with GCC commit 48b2123f6336 ("re PR
target/82981 (unnecessary __multi3 call for mips64r6 linux kernel)").

Adjust our code accordingly, removing build failures such as:

mips64-linux-ld: lib/math/div64.o: in function `mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64':
div64.c:(.text+0x84): undefined reference to `__multi3'

with the GCC versions affected.

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).

Some firmware does not set nr_uarts properly and passes empty items.
Iterate at most min(system-&gt;nr_uarts, MAX_UARTS) items to prevent
out-of-bounds access, and ignore UARTs with addr 0 silently.

Meanwhile, our DT only works with UPIO_MEM but theoretically firmware
may pass other IO types, so explicitly check against that.

Tested on Loongson-LS3A4000-7A1000-NUC-SE.
