parisc: Flush correct cache in cacheflush() syscall

2026-03-25T10:10:31+00:00

commit 2c98a8fbd6aa647414c6248dacf254ebe91c79ad upstream. The assembly flush instructions were swapped for I- and D-cache flags: SYSCALL_DEFINE3(cacheflush, ...) { if (cache & DCACHE) { "fic ...\n" } if (cache & ICACHE && error == 0) { "fdc ...\n" } Fix it by using fdc for DCACHE, and fic for ICACHE flushing.

parisc: Check kernel mapping earlier at bootup

2026-03-19T15:08:38+00:00

commit 17c144f1104bfc29a3ce3f7d0931a1bfb7a3558c upstream. The check if the initial mapping is sufficient needs to happen much earlier during bootup. Move this test directly to the start_parisc() function and use native PDC iodc functions to print the warning, because panic() and printk() are not functional yet. This fixes boot when enabling various KALLSYSMS options which need much more space. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller Cc: # v6.0+ Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

parisc: Fix initial page table creation for boot

2026-03-19T15:08:38+00:00

commit 8475d8fe21ec9c7eb2faca555fbc5b68cf0d2597 upstream. The KERNEL_INITIAL_ORDER value defines the initial size (usually 32 or 64 MB) of the page table during bootup. Up until now the whole area was initialized with PTE entries, but there was no check if we filled too many entries. Change the code to fill up with so many entries that the "_end" symbol can be reached by the kernel, but not more entries than actually fit into the initial PTE tables.

parisc: Increase initial mapping to 64 MB with KALLSYMS

2026-03-19T15:08:37+00:00

commit 8e732934fb81282be41602550e7e07baf265e972 upstream. The 32MB initial kernel mapping can become too small when CONFIG_KALLSYMS is used. Increase the mapping to 64 MB in this case. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller Cc: # v6.0+ Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

kbuild: Split .modinfo out from ELF_DETAILS

2026-03-12T11:09:44+00:00

commit 8678591b47469fe16357234efef9b260317b8be4 upstream. Commit 3e86e4d74c04 ("kbuild: keep .modinfo section in vmlinux.unstripped") added .modinfo to ELF_DETAILS while removing it from COMMON_DISCARDS, as it was needed in vmlinux.unstripped and ELF_DETAILS was present in all architecture specific vmlinux linker scripts. While this shuffle is fine for vmlinux, ELF_DETAILS and COMMON_DISCARDS may be used by other linker scripts, such as the s390 and x86 compressed boot images, which may not expect to have a .modinfo section. In certain circumstances, this could result in a bootloader failing to load the compressed kernel [1]. Commit ddc6cbef3ef1 ("s390/boot/vmlinux.lds.S: Ensure bzImage ends with SecureBoot trailer") recently addressed this for the s390 bzImage but the same bug remains for arm, parisc, and x86. The presence of .modinfo in the x86 bzImage was the root cause of the issue worked around with commit d50f21091358 ("kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot Authenticode EDK2 compat"). misc.c in arch/x86/boot/compressed includes lib/decompress_unzstd.c, which in turn includes lib/xxhash.c and its MODULE_LICENSE / MODULE_DESCRIPTION macros due to the STATIC definition. Split .modinfo out from ELF_DETAILS into its own macro and handle it in all vmlinux linker scripts. Discard .modinfo in the places where it was previously being discarded from being in COMMON_DISCARDS, as it has never been necessary in those uses.

parisc: entry: set W bit for !compat tasks in syscall_restore_rfi()

2026-01-08T09:17:01+00:00

commit 5fb1d3ce3e74a4530042795e1e065422295f1371 upstream. When the kernel leaves to userspace via syscall_restore_rfi(), the W bit is not set in the new PSW. This doesn't cause any problems because there's no 64 bit userspace for parisc. Simple static binaries are usually loaded at addresses way below the 32 bit limit so the W bit doesn't matter. Fix this by setting the W bit when TIF_32BIT is not set. Signed-off-by: Sven Schnelle Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Helge Deller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

parisc: entry.S: fix space adjustment on interruption for 64-bit userspace

2026-01-08T09:17:01+00:00

commit 1aa4524c0c1b54842c4c0a370171d11b12d0709b upstream. In wide mode, the IASQ contain the upper part of the GVA during interruption. This needs to be reversed before the space is used - otherwise it contains parts of IAOQ. See Page 2-13 "Processing Resources / Interruption Instruction Address Queues" in the Parisc 2.0 Architecture Manual page 2-13 for an explanation. The IAOQ/IASQ space_adjust was skipped for other interruptions than itlb misses. However, the code in handle_interruption() checks whether iasq[0] contains a valid space. Due to the not masked out bits this match failed and the process was killed. Also add space_adjust for IAOQ1/IASQ1 so ptregs contains sane values.

The crash happens, because the unwinder tries to read from unaligned memory and as such triggers the unalignment trap handler which then leads to the spinlock recursion and finally to a deadlock. Fix it by checking the alignment before accessing the memory. Reported-by: Guenter Roeck Signed-off-by: Helge Deller Tested-by: Guenter Roeck Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v6.12+
