2013-01-03MIPS: drivers: remove __dev* attributes.Greg Kroah-Hartman
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, and __devexit from these drivers. Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

2012-12-13MIPS: Handle COP3 Unusable exception as COP1X for FP emulationMaciej W. Rozycki
Our FP emulator is hardcoded for the MIPS IV FP instruction set and does not match the FP ISA with the general ISA. However for the few MIPS IV FP instructions that use the COP1X major opcode it relies on the Coprocessor Unusable exception to be delivered as a COP1 rather than COP3 exception. This includes indexed transfer (LDXC1, etc.) and FP multiply-accumulate (MADD.D, etc.) instructions. All the MIPS I, II, III and IV processors and some newer chips that do not implement the FPU use the COP3 exception however. Therefore I believe the kernel should follow and redirect any COP3 Unusable traps to the emulator unless an actual FPU part or core is present. This is a change that implements it. Any minor opcode encodings that are not recognised as valid FP instructions are rejected by the emulator and will result in a SIGILL signal being delivered as they currently do. We do not support vendor-specific coprocessor 3 implementations supported with MIPS I and MIPS II ISA processors; we never set CP0.Status.CU3. [Ralf: On MIPS IV processors the kernel always enables the XX bit which replaces the CU3 bit off earlier architecture revisions.] If matching between the CPU and the FPU ISA is considered required one day, this can still be done in the emulator itself. I think the CpU exception dispatcher is not the right place to do this anyway, as there are further differences between MIPS I, MIPS II, MIPS III, MIPS IV and MIPS32 FP ISAs. Corresponding explanation of this implementation is included within the change itself. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

2012-12-13MIPS: Fix poweroff failure when HOTPLUG_CPU configured.Huacai Chen
When poweroff machine, kernel_power_off() call disable_nonboot_cpus(). And if we have HOTPLUG_CPU configured, disable_nonboot_cpus() is not an empty function but attempt to actually disable the nonboot cpus. Since system state is SYSTEM_POWER_OFF, play_dead() won't be called and thus disable_nonboot_cpus() hangs. Therefore, we make this patch to avoid poweroff failure.

Previously the r4k timer was initialized regardless, but it's useless with the "wait" instruction.

2012-12-05MIPS: Fix endless loop when processing signals for kernel tasksDmitry Adamushko
The problem occurs [1] when a kernel-mode task returns from a system call with a pending signal. A real-life scenario is a child of 'khelper' returning from a failed kernel_execve() in ____call_usermodehelper() [ kernel/kmod.c ]. kernel_execve() fails due to a pending SIGKILL, which is the result of "kill -9 -1" (at least, busybox's init does it upon reboot). The loop is as follows: * syscall_exit_work: - work_pending: // start_of_the_loop - work_notifysig: - do_notify_resume() - do_signal() - if (!user_mode(regs)) return; - resume_userspace // TIF_SIGPENDING is still set - work_pending // so we call work_pending => goto // start_of_the_loop More information can be found in another LKML thread: http://www.serverphorums.com/read.php?12,457826 [1] The problem was also reproduced on !CONFIG_VM86 x86, and the following fix was accepted. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=29a2e2836ff9ea65a603c89df217f4198973a74f Signed-off-by: Dmitry Adamushko <dmitry.adamushko@gmail.com> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/3571/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

2012-10-13vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return itJeff Layton
getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to the string. For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled, we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not need to recopy it from userspace. This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it. Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes convenient. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-10-12mips,kgdb: fix recursive page fault with CONFIG_KPROBESJason Wessel
This fault was detected using the kgdb test suite on boot and it crashes recursively due to the fact that CONFIG_KPROBES on mips adds an extra die notifier in the page fault handler. The crash signature looks like this: kgdbts:RUN bad memory access test KGDB: re-enter exception: ALL breakpoints killed Call Trace: [<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54 [<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54 The fix for now is to have kgdb return immediately if the fault type is DIE_PAGE_FAULT and allow the kprobe code to decide what is supposed to happen.

Originally added in 05b541489c48e7fbeec19a92acf8683230750d0a [Merge with Linux 2.5.5.] over 10 years ago but never been used. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

2012-10-11MIPS: Add detection of DSP ASE Revision 2.Steven J. Hill
[ralf@linux-mips.org: This patch really only detects the ASE and passes its existence on to userland via /proc/cpuinfo. The DSP ASE Rev 2. adds new resources but no resources that would need management by the kernel.] Signed-off-by: Steven J.

2012-10-11MIPS: perf: Add perf functionality for BMIPS5000Al Cooper
Add hardware performance counter support to kernel "perf" code for BMIPS5000. The BMIPS5000 performance counters are similar to MIPS MTI cores, so the changes were mostly made in perf_event_mipsxx.c which is typically for MTI cores.

2012-10-11MIPS: perf: Split the Kconfig option CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMPAl Cooper
Split the Kconfig option CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMP into CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMP and CONFIG_MIPS_PERF_SHARED_TC_COUNTERS so some of the code used for performance counters that are shared between threads can be used for MIPS cores that are not MT_SMP.

2012-10-11MIPS: perf: Remove unnecessary #ifdefAl Cooper
The #ifdef for CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS is not needed because the Makefile will only compile the module if this config option is set. This means that the code under #else would never be compiled. This may have been done to leave the original broken code around for reference, but the FIXME comment above the code already shows the broken code.

2012-10-11MIPS: perf: Add cpu feature bit for PCI (performance counter interrupt)Al Cooper
The PCI (Program Counter Interrupt) bit in the "cause" register is mandatory for MIPS32R2 cores, but has also been added to some R1 cores (BMIPS5000). This change adds a cpu feature bit to make it easier to check for and use this feature.

2012-10-11MIPS: perf: Change the "mips_perf_event" table unsupported indicator.Al Cooper
Change the indicator from 0xffffffff in the "event_id" member to zero in the "cntr_mask" member. This removes the need to initialize entries that are unsupported. This also solves a problem where the number of entries in the table was increased based on a globel enum used for all platforms, but the new unsupported entries were not added for mips. This was leaving new table entries of all zeros that we not marked UNSUPPORTED.
