commit 1c3c909303924d30145601f47b6c058fdd2cbc2e upstream.
| CC mm/memory.o
| In file included from ../mm/memory.c:53:0:
| ../include/linux/pfn_t.h: In function ‘pfn_t_pte’:
| ../include/linux/pfn_t.h:78:2: error: conversion to non-scalar type requested
| return pfn_pte(pfn_t_to_pfn(pfn), pgprot);
With STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS pte_t is a struct and the offending code
forces a cast which ends up shifting a struct and hence the gcc warning.
Note that in recent past some of the arches (aarch64, s390) made
STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS default, but we don't for ARC as this leads to slightly
worse generated code, given ARC ABI definition of returning structs
(which pte_t would become)
Quoting from ARC ABI...
"Results of type struct are returned in a caller-supplied temporary
variable whose address is passed in r0.
For such functions, the arguments are shifted so that they are
passed in r1 and up."
So
- struct to be returned would be allocated on stack requiring extra
code at call sites
- callee updates stack memory to facilitate the return (vs. simple
MOV into return reg r0)
Hence STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS is not enabled by default for ARC

commit 18b43e89d295cc65151c505c643c98fb2c320e59 upstream.
trace_hardirqs_on_caller() in lockdep.c expects to be called before, not
after interrupts are actually enabled.
The following comment in kernel/locking/lockdep.c substantiates this
claim:
"
/*
* We're enabling irqs and according to our state above irqs weren't
* already enabled, yet we find the hardware thinks they are in fact
* enabled.. someone messed up their IRQ state tracing.
*/
"
An example can be found in include/linux/irqflags.h:
do { trace_hardirqs_on(); raw_local_irq_enable(); } while (0)
Without this change, we hit the following DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON.

commit 86147e3cfa5e118b61e78f4f0bf29e920dcbd477 upstream.
User mode callee regs are explicitly collected before signal delivery or
breakpoint trap. r25 is special for kernel as it serves as task pointer,
so user mode value is clobbered very early. It is saved in pt_regs where
generally only scratch (aka caller saved) regs are saved.
The code to access the corresponding pt_regs location had a subtle bug as
it was using load/store with scaling of offset, whereas the offset was already
byte wise correct. So fix this by replacing LD.AS with a standard LD

commit 20d780374c81cf237834af2202c26df2100ddd69 upstream.
ARC architecture has 2 instruction sets: ARCompact/ARCv2.
While same gcc supports compiling for either (using appropriate toggles),
we can't use the same toolchain to build kernel because libgcc needs
to be unique and the toolchian (uClibc based) is not multilibed.
uClibc toolchain is convenient since it allows all userspace and
kernel to be built with a single install for an ISA.
This however means 2 gnu installs (with same triplet prefix) are needed
for building for 2 ISA and need to be in PATH.
As developers we keep switching the builds, but would occassionally fail
to update the PATH leading to usage of wrong tools. And this would only
show up at the end of kernel build when linking incompatible libgcc.
So the initial solution was to have gcc define a special preprocessor macro
DEFAULT_CPU_xxx which is unique for default toolchain configuration.
Claudiu proposed using grep for an existing preprocessor macro which is
again uniquely defined per ISA.

And for newer kernels, the system was rendered unusable afterwards.
The problem was mprotect->pte_modify() clearing PTE_SPECIAL (which is
set to identify the special zero page wired to the pte).
When pte was finally unmapped, special casing for zero page was not
done, and instead it was treated as a "normal" page, tripping on the
map counts etc.

commit f52e126cc7476196f44f3c313b7d9f0699a881fc upstream.
With recent binutils update to support dwarf CFI pseudo-ops in gas, we
now get .eh_frame vs. .debug_frame. Although the call frame info is
exactly the same in both, the CIE differs, which the current kernel
unwinder can't cope with.
This broke both the kernel unwinder as well as loadable modules (latter
because of a new unhandled relo R_ARC_32_PCREL from .rela.eh_frame in
the module loader)
The ideal solution would be to switch unwinder to .eh_frame.
For now however we can make do by just ensureing .debug_frame is
generated by removing -fasynchronous-unwind-tables
.eh_frame generated with -gdwarf-2 -fasynchronous-unwind-tables
.debug_frame generated with -gdwarf-2

commit 9bd54517ee86cb164c734f72ea95aeba4804f10b upstream.
If CONFIG_ARC_DW2_UNWIND is disabled every time arc_unwind_core()
gets called following message gets printed in debug console:
----------------->8---------------
CONFIG_ARC_DW2_UNWIND needs to be enabled
----------------->8---------------
That message makes sense if user indeed wants to see a backtrace or
get nice function call-graphs in perf but what if user disabled
unwinder for the purpose? Why pollute his debug console?
So instead we'll warn user about possibly missing feature once and
let him decide if that was what he or she really wanted.

commit e5bc0478ab6cf565619224536d75ecb2aedca43b upstream.
While reviewing a different change to asm-generic/io.h Arnd spotted that
ARC ioread32 and ioread32be both of which come from asm-generic versions
are not symmetrical in terms of calling the io barriers.
generic ioread32 -> ARC readl() [ has barriers]
generic ioread32be -> __be32_to_cpu(__raw_readl()) [ lacks barriers]
While generic ioread32be is being remediated to call readl(), that involves
a swab32(), causing double swaps on ioread32be() on Big Endian systems.
So provide our versions of big endian IO accessors to ensure io barrier
calls while also keeping them optimal

commit f778cc65717687a3d3f26dd21bef62cd059f1b8b upstream.
read{l,w}() write{l,w}() primitives should use le{16,32}_to_cpu() and
cpu_to_le{16,32}() respectively to ensure device registers are read
correctly in Big Endian CPU configuration.
Per Arnd Bergmann
| Most drivers using readl() or readl_relaxed() expect those to perform byte
| swaps on big-endian architectures, as the registers tend to be fixed endian
This was needed for getting UART to work correctly on a Big Endian ARC.
The ARC accessors originally were fine, and the bug got introduced
inadventently by commit b8a033023994 ("ARCv2: barriers")

commit bb143f814ea488769ca2e79e0b376139cb5f134b upstream.
ARConnect/MCIP Inter-Core-Interrupt module can't send interrupt to
local core. So use core intc capability to trigger software
interrupt to self, using an unsued IRQ #21.
This showed up as csd deadlock with LTP trace_sched on a dual core
system. This test acts as scheduler fuzzer, triggering all sorts of
schedulting activity. Trouble starts with IPI to self, which doesn't get
delivered (effectively lost due to H/w capability), but the msg intended
to be sent remain enqueued in per-cpu @ipi_data.
All subsequent IPIs to this core from other cores get elided due to the
IPI coalescing optimization in ipi_send_msg_one() where a pending msg
implies an IPI already sent and assumes other core is yet to ack it.
After the elided IPI, other core simply goes into csd_lock_wait()
but never comes out as this core never sees the interrupt.

commit cbfe74a753e877b49dc54e9b04d5d42230ca0aed upstream.
Returning to delay slot, riding an interrupti, had one loose end.
AUX_USER_SP used for restoring user mode SP upon RTIE was not being
setup from orig task's saved value, causing task to use wrong SP,
leading to ProtV errors.
The reason being:
- INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE returns to a kernel trampoline, thus not expected to restore it
- EXCEPTION_EPILOGUE is not used at all
Fix that by restoring AUX_USER_SP explicitly in the trampoline.
This was broken in the original workaround, but the error scenarios got
reduced considerably since v3.14 due to following:
1. The Linuxthreads.old based userspace at the time caused many more
exceptions in delay slot than the current NPTL based one.
Infact with current userspace the error doesn't happen at all.
2. Return from interrupt (delay slot or otherwise) doesn't get exercised much
after commit 4de0e52867d8 ("Really Re-enable interrupts to avoid deadlocks")
since IRQ_ACTIVE.active being clear means most returns are as if from pure
kernel (even for active interrupts)
Infact the issue only happened in an experimental branch where I was tinkering with
reverted 4de0e52867d8

Blingly ignoring CIE.version != 1 was a bad idea.
It still leaves "desirability" when running perf with callgraphing where libgcc
symbols might show in hotspot.
More importantly, basic CIE.version == 3 support already exists in code:

| retAddrReg = state.version <= 1 ? *ptr++ : get_uleb128(&ptr, end);

Next commit with simply add continue-not-bail for CIE.version != 1

At -Os, ARC gcc generates millicode thunk for function prologue/epilogue,
which are served by libgcc.
Modules historically are NOT linked with libgcc to avoid code bloat, reducing
runtime relocation fixups etc. I even once tried doing that but got lost
in makefile intricacies.
This means modules at -Os don't get the millicode thunks, causing build
failures below:

ARC700 cores with MMU v2 don't have IC_PTAG AUX register and so we only
define ARC_REG_IC_PTAG for MMU versions >= 3.
But current implementation of cache_line_loop_vX() routines assumes
availability of all of them (v2, v3 and v4) simultaneously.
And given undefined ARC_REG_IC_PTAG if CONFIG_MMU_VER=2 we're seeing
compilation problem:

ARC dwarf unwinder only supports CIE version == 1
The boot time dwarf sanitizer (part of binary lookup table constructor)
would simply bail if it saw CIE version == 3, rendering unwinder with a
NULL lookup table.
It seems libgcc linked with kernel does have such entries.
With fallback linear search removed, and a NULL binary lookup table,
unwinder fails to generate any stack trace.
So allow graceful ignoring of unsupported CIE entries.
This problem was initially seen in Alexey's setup (and not mine) as he
was using buildroot built toolchain (libgcc) which doesn't get built with
CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET="-gdwarf-2 which is my default

The fix which removed linear searching of dwarf (because binary lookup
data always exists) missed out on the fact that modules don't get the
binary lookup tables info. This caused unwinding out of modules to stop
working.
So add binary lookup header setup (equivalent of eh_frame_hdr setup) to
modules as well.
While at it, confine the header setup to within unwinder code,
reducing one API exposed out of unwinder code.

This was the second perf intr issue
perf sampling on multicore requires intr to be enabled on all cores.
ARC perf probe code used helper arc_request_percpu_irq() which calls
- request_percpu_irq() on core0
- enable_percpu_irq() on all all cores (including core0)
genirq requires that request be made ahead of enable call.
However if perf probe happened on non core0 (observed on a 3.18 kernel),
enable would get called ahead of request, failing obviously and
rendering perf intr disabled on all such cores
[ 11.120000] 1 ARC perf : 8 counters (48 bits), 113 conditions, [overflow IRQ support]

Fix this fragility, by calling request_percpu_irq() on whatever core
calls probe (there is no requirement on which core calls this anyways)
and then calling enable on each cores.
Interestingly this started as invesigation of STAR 9000838902:
"sporadically IRQs enabled on perf prob"
which was about occassional boot spew as request_percpu_irq got called
non-locally (from an IPI), and re-enabled interrupts in following path
proc_mkdir -> spin_unlock_irq()
which the irq work code didn't like.

arc_request_percpu_irq() is called by all cores to request/enable percpu
irq. It has some "prep" calls needed by genirq:
- setup percpu devid
- disable IRQ_NOAUTOEN
However given that enable_percpu_irq() is called enayways, latter can be
avoided.
We are now left with irq_set_percpu_devid() quirk and that too for
ARCompact builds only, since previous patch updated ARCv2 intc to do this
in the "right" place, i.e. irq map function.
By next release, this will ultimately be fixed for ARCompact as well.

As part of fixing another perf issue, observed that after a perf run,
the interrupt got disabled on one/more cores.
Turns out that despite requesting perf irq as percpu, the flow handler
registered was not handle_percpu_irq()
Given that on ARCv2 cores, IRQs < 24 are always private to cpu, we
register the right handler at the very onset.

Current ARC SDP boards cannot reliably handle 1Gbit
Ethernet connections due to limitations in hardware.
To make sure networking is stable on the board we're
limiting phy to 100 Mbit.

Fixes STAR 9000953410: "perf callgraph profiling causing RCU stalls"
| perf record -g -c 15000 -e cycles /sbin/hackbench
|
| INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU
| 1: (1 GPs behind) idle=609/140000000000002/0 softirq=2914/2915 fqs=603
| Task dump for CPU 1:
in-kernel dwarf unwinder has a fast binary lookup and a fallback linear
search (which iterates thru each of ~11K entries) thus takes 2 orders of
magnitude longer (~3 million cycles vs. 2000). Routines written in hand
assembler lack dwarf info (as we don't support assembler CFI pseudo-ops
yet) fail the unwinder binary lookup, hit linear search, failing
nevertheless in the end.
However the linear search is pointless as binary lookup tables are created
from it in first place. It is impossible to have binary lookup fail while
succeed the linear search. It is pure waste of cycles thus removed by
this patch.
This manifested as RCU stalls / NMI watchdog splat when running
hackbench under perf with callgraph profiling. The triggering condition
was perf counter overflowing in routine lacking dwarf info (like memset)
leading to patheic 3 million cycle unwinder slow path and by the time it
returned new interrupts were already pending (Timer, IPI) and taken
rightaway. The original memset didn't make forward progress, system kept
accruing more interrupts and more unwinder delayes in a vicious feedback
loop, ultimately triggering the NMI diagnostic.

SYNC in __switch_to() is a historic relic and not needed at all.
- In UP context it is obviously useless, why would we want to stall
the core for all updates to stack memory of t0 to complete before
loading kernel mode callee registers from t1 stack's memory.
- In SMP, there could be potential race in which outgoing task could
be concurrently picked for running on a different core, thus writes
to stack here need to be visible before the reads from stack on
other core. Peter confirmed that generic schedular already has needed
barriers (by way of rq lock) so there is no need for additional arch
barrier.
This came up when Noam was trying to replace this SYNC with EZChip
specific hardware thread scheduling instruction for their platform
support.

Although kernel doesn't support the multiple IRQ priority levels provided
by HS38x core intc yet, ensure that the default prio value is used
anyways by relevant code.
SLEEP insn needs to be provided the IRQ priority level which can
interrupt it. This needs to be the default level which maynot
necessarily be 0 as assumed by current code.
This change allows a kernel with ARCV2_IRQ_DEF_PRIO = 1 to boot fine.

When building kernel with buildroot built toolchain, CROSS_COMPILE
currently needs adjustment even if minor. This is because the defconfigs
prefer "arc-linux-uclibc-" prefix from hand built (non buildroot) toolchain
while buildroot provides "arc-buildroot-linux-uclibc-"
To avoid this use the common "arc-linux-" prefix which is provided by
buildroot and has also been in hand built tools for quite some time.

Pull ARC fixes from Vineet Gupta:
"Found a couple of brown paper bag bugs with the prev pull request
(including a SMP build breakage report from Guenter). Since these are
urgent I also decided to send over a bunch of other pending fixes
which could have otherwise waited an rc or two.
Summary:
- A bunch of brown paper bag bugs (MAINTAINERS list email, SMP build
failure)
- cpu_relax() now compiler barrier for UP as well
- handling of userspace Bus Errors for ARCompact builds"

ARC: Fix silly typo in MAINTAINERS file
ARC: cpu_relax() to be compiler barrier even for UP
ARC: use ASL assembler mnemonic
ARC: [arcompact] Handle bus error from userspace as Interrupt not exception
ARC: remove extraneous header include
ARCv2: lib: memcpy: use local symbols
|
|
cpu_relax() on ARC has been barrier only for SMP (and no-op for UP). Per
recent discussions, it is safer to make it a compiler barrier
unconditionally.

ARCompact and ARCv2 only have ASL, while binutils used to support LSL as
a alias mnemonic.
Newer binutils (upstream) don't want to do that so replace it.

Bus errors from userspace on ARCompact based cores are handled by core
as a high priority L2 interrupt but current code treated it as interrupt
Handling an interrupt like exception is certainly not going to go unnoticed.
(and it worked so far as we never saw a Bus error from userspace until
IPPK guys tested a DDR controller with ECC error detection etc hence
needed to explicitly trigger/handle such errors)
- So move mem_service exception handler from common code into ARCv2 code.
- In ARCompact code, define mem_service as L2 interrupt handler which
just drops down to pure kernel mode and goes of to enqueue SIGBUS

Pull DeviceTree updates from Rob Herring:
"A fairly large (by DT standards) pull request this time with the
majority being some overdue moving DT binding docs around to
consolidate similar bindings.
- DT binding doc consolidation moving similar bindings to common
locations. The majority of these are display related which were
scattered in video/, fb/, drm/, gpu/, and panel/ directories.
- Add new config option, CONFIG_OF_ALL_DTBS, to enable building all
dtbs in the tree for most arches with dts files (except powerpc for
now).
- OF_IRQ=n fixes for user enabled CONFIG_OF.
- of_node_put ref counting fixes from Julia Lawall.
- Common DT binding for wakeup-source and deprecation of all similar
bindings.
- DT binding for PXA LCD controller.
- Allow ignoring failed PCI resource translations in order to ignore
64-bit addresses on non-LPAE 32-bit kernels.
- Support setting the NUMA node from DT instead of only from parent
device.
- Couple of earlycon DT parsing fixes for address and options"

"The main changes in this cycle were:
- More gradual enhancements to atomic ops: new atomic*_read_ctrl()
ops, synchronize atomic_{read,set}() ordering requirements between
architectures, add atomic_long_t bitops. (Peter Zijlstra)
- Add _{relaxed|acquire|release}() variants for inc/dec atomics and
use them in various locking primitives: mutex, rtmutex, mcs, rwsem.
This enables weakly ordered architectures (such as arm64) to make
use of more locking related optimizations. (Davidlohr Bueso)
