* MIPS: Function tracer: Fix broken function tracingAl Cooper2013-01-312-4/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Function tracing is currently broken for all 32 bit MIPS platforms. When tracing is enabled, the kernel immediately hangs on boot. This is a result of commit b732d439cb43336cd6d7e804ecb2c81193ef63b0 that changes the kernel/trace/Kconfig file so that is no longer forces FRAME_POINTER when FUNCTION_TRACING is enabled. MIPS frame pointers are generally considered to be useless because they cannot be used to unwind the stack. Unfortunately the MIPS function tracing code has bugs that are masked by the use of frame pointers. This commit fixes the bugs so that MIPS frame pointers don't need to be enabled. The bugs are a result of the odd calling sequence used to call the trace routine. This calling sequence is inserted into every traceable function when the tracing CONFIG option is enabled. This sequence is generated for 32bit MIPS platforms by the compiler via the "-pg" flag. Part of the sequence is "addiu sp,sp,-8" in the delay slot after every call to the trace routine "_mcount" (some legacy thing where 2 arguments used to be pushed on the stack). The _mcount routine is expected to adjust the sp by +8 before returning. So when not disabled, the original jalr and addiu will be there, so _mcount has to adjust sp. The problem is that when tracing is disabled for a function, the "jalr _mcount" instruction is replaced with a nop, but the "addiu sp,sp,-8" is still executed and the stack pointer is left trashed. When frame pointers are enabled the problem is masked because any access to the stack is done through the frame pointer and the stack pointer is restored from the frame pointer when the function returns. This patch writes two nops starting at the address of the "jalr _mcount" instruction whenever tracing is disabled. This means that the "addiu sp,sp.-8" will be converted to a nop along with the "jalr". When disabled, there will be two nops. This is SMP safe because the first time this happens is during ftrace_init() which is before any other processor has been started. Subsequent calls to enable/disable tracing when other CPUs ARE running will still be safe because the enable will only change the first nop to a "jalr" and the disable, while writing 2 nops, will only be changing the "jalr". This patch also stops using stop_machine() to call the tracer enable/disable routines and calls them directly because the routines are SMP safe. When the kernel first boots we have to be able to handle the gcc generated jalr, addui sequence until ftrace_init gets a chance to run and change the sequence. At this point mcount just adjusts the stack and returns. When ftrace_init runs, we convert the jalr/addui to nops. Then whenever tracing is enabled we convert the first nop to a "jalr mcount+8". The mcount+8 entry point skips the stack adjust.

| * | MIPS: Handle COP3 Unusable exception as COP1X for FP emulationMaciej W. Rozycki2012-12-131-3/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| * | MIPS: Fix poweroff failure when HOTPLUG_CPU configured.Huacai Chen2012-12-131-3/+1

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.

* | | | MIPS: Fix endless loop when processing signals for kernel tasksDmitry Adamushko2012-12-051-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>

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.
