powerpc: add CFUNC assembly label annotation

2023-04-20T02:54:24+00:00

This macro is to be used in assembly where C functions are called. pcrel addressing mode requires branches to functions with a localentry value of 1 to have either a trailing nop or @notoc. This macro permits the latter without changing callers.

selftests/powerpc/copyloops: Add memmove_64 test

2022-02-12T11:47:44+00:00

While debugging an issue, we wanted to check whether the arch specific kernel memmove implementation is correct. This selftest could help test that.

x86, powerpc: Rename memcpy_mcsafe() to copy_mc_to_{user, kernel}()

2020-10-06T09:18:04+00:00

In reaction to a proposal to introduce a memcpy_mcsafe_fast() implementation Linus points out that memcpy_mcsafe() is poorly named relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults / exceptions are handled. Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic() implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this case: On Fri, May 1, 2020 at 11:28 AM Linus Torvalds wrote: > > On Thu, Apr 30, 2020 at 6:21 PM Dan Williams wrote: > > > > However now I see that copy_user_generic() works for the wrong reason. > > It works because the exception on the source address due to poison > > looks no different than a write fault on the user address to the > > caller, it's still just a short copy.

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel(). Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch. One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.

selftests/powerpc: Ignore generated files

2019-08-22T13:12:47+00:00

Currently some binary files which are generated when tests are compiled are not ignored by git, so 'git status' catch them. For copyloops test, fix wrong binary names already in .gitignore. For ptrace, security, and stringloops tests add missing binary names to the .gitignore file.

powerpc: prepare string/mem functions for KASAN

2019-05-02T15:20:25+00:00

CONFIG_KASAN implements wrappers for memcpy() memmove() and memset() Those wrappers are doing the verification then call respectively __memcpy() __memmove() and __memset(). The arches are therefore expected to rename their optimised functions that way. For files on which KASAN is inhibited, #defines are used to allow them to directly call optimised versions of the functions without going through the KASAN wrappers. See commit 393f203f5fd5 ("x86_64: kasan: add interceptors for memset/memmove/memcpy functions") for details. Other string / mem functions do not (yet) have kasan wrappers, we therefore have to fallback to the generic versions when KASAN is active, otherwise KASAN checks will be skipped.

selftests/powerpc: Fix Makefiles for headers_install change

2018-09-28T05:07:45+00:00

Commit b2d35fa5fc80 ("selftests: add headers_install to lib.mk") introduced a requirement that Makefiles more than one level below the selftests directory need to define top_srcdir, but it didn't update any of the powerpc Makefiles. This broke building all the powerpc selftests with eg: make[1]: Entering directory '/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc' BUILD_TARGET=/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/alignment; mkdir -p $BUILD_TARGET; make OUTPUT=$BUILD_TARGET -k -C alignment all make[2]: Entering directory '/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/alignment' ../../lib.mk:20: ../../../../scripts/subarch.include: No such file or directory make[2]: *** No rule to make target '../../../../scripts/subarch.include'. make[2]: Failed to remake makefile '../../../../scripts/subarch.include'. Makefile:38: recipe for target 'alignment' failed Fix it by setting top_srcdir in the affected Makefiles.

selftests/powerpc/64: Test exception cases in copy_tofrom_user

2018-08-07T14:32:35+00:00

This adds a set of test cases to test the behaviour of copy_tofrom_user when exceptions are encountered accessing the source or destination. Currently, copy_tofrom_user does not always copy as many bytes as possible when an exception occurs on a store to the destination, and that is reflected in failures in these tests. Based on a test program from Anton Blanchard.
