Raw Normal View History

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

MIPS: Use per-mm page to execute branch delay slot instructions In some cases the kernel needs to execute an instruction from the delay slot of an emulated branch instruction. These cases include: - Emulated floating point branch instructions (bc1[ft]l?) for systems which don't include an FPU, or upon which the kernel is run with the "nofpu" parameter. - MIPSr6 systems running binaries targeting older revisions of the architecture, which may include branch instructions whose encodings are no longer valid in MIPSr6. Executing instructions from such delay slots is done by writing the instruction to memory followed by a trap, as part of an "emuframe", and executing it. This avoids the requirement of an emulator for the entire MIPS instruction set. Prior to this patch such emuframes are written to the user stack and executed from there. This patch moves FP branch delay emuframes off of the user stack and into a per-mm page. Allocating a page per-mm leaves userland with access to only what it had access to previously, and compared to other solutions is relatively simple. When a thread requires a delay slot emulation, it is allocated a frame. A thread may only have one frame allocated at any one time, since it may only ever be executing one instruction at any one time. In order to ensure that we can free up allocated frame later, its index is recorded in struct thread_struct. In the typical case, after executing the delay slot instruction we'll execute a break instruction with the BRK_MEMU code. This traps back to the kernel & leads to a call to do_dsemulret which frees the allocated frame & moves the user PC back to the instruction that would have executed following the emulated branch. In some cases the delay slot instruction may be invalid, such as a branch, or may trigger an exception. In these cases the BRK_MEMU break instruction will not be hit. In order to ensure that frames are freed this patch introduces dsemul_thread_cleanup() and calls it to free any allocated frame upon thread exit. If the instruction generated an exception & leads to a signal being delivered to the thread, or indeed if a signal simply happens to be delivered to the thread whilst it is executing from the struct emuframe, then we need to take care to exit the frame appropriately. This is done by either rolling back the user PC to the branch or advancing it to the continuation PC prior to signal delivery, using dsemul_thread_rollback(). If this were not done then a sigreturn would return to the struct emuframe, and if that frame had meanwhile been used in response to an emulated branch instruction within the signal handler then we would execute the wrong user code. Whilst a user could theoretically place something like a compact branch to self in a delay slot and cause their thread to become stuck in an infinite loop with the frame never being deallocated, this would: - Only affect the users single process. - Be architecturally invalid since there would be a branch in the delay slot, which is forbidden. - Be extremely unlikely to happen by mistake, and provide a program with no more ability to harm the system than a simple infinite loop would. If a thread requires a delay slot emulation & no frame is available to it (ie. the process has enough other threads that all frames are currently in use) then the thread joins a waitqueue. It will sleep until a frame is freed by another thread in the process. Since we now know whether a thread has an allocated frame due to our tracking of its index, the cookie field of struct emuframe is removed as we can be more certain whether we have a valid frame. Since a thread may only ever have a single frame at any given time, the epc field of struct emuframe is also removed & the PC to continue from is instead stored in struct thread_struct. Together these changes simplify & shrink struct emuframe somewhat, allowing twice as many frames to fit into the page allocated for them. The primary benefit of this patch is that we are now free to mark the user stack non-executable where that is possible.

MIPS: VDSO: Always map near top of user memory When using the legacy mmap layout, for example triggered using ulimit -s unlimited, get_unmapped_area() fills memory from bottom to top starting from a fairly low address near TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE. This placement is suboptimal if the user application wishes to allocate large amounts of heap memory using the brk syscall. With the VDSO being located low in the user's virtual address space, the amount of space available for access using brk is limited much more than it was prior to the introduction of the VDSO. For example: # ulimit -s unlimited; cat /proc/self/maps 00400000-004ec000 r-xp 00000000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils 004fc000-004fd000 rwxp 000ec000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils 004fd000-0050f000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 00cc3000-00ce4000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] 2ab96000-2ab98000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar] 2ab98000-2ab99000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] 2ab99000-2ab9d000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 ... Resolve this by adjusting STACK_TOP to reserve space for the VDSO & providing an address hint to get_unmapped_area() causing it to use this space even when using the legacy mmap layout. We reserve enough space for the VDSO, plus 1MB or 256MB for 32 bit & 64 bit systems respectively within which we randomize the VDSO base address. Previously this randomization was taken care of by the mmap base address randomization performed by arch_mmap_rnd(). The 1MB & 256MB sizes are somewhat arbitrary but chosen such that we have some randomization without taking up too much of the user's virtual address space, which is often in short supply for 32 bit systems. With this the VDSO is always mapped at a high address, leaving lots of space for statically linked programs to make use of brk: # ulimit -s unlimited; cat /proc/self/maps 00400000-004ec000 r-xp 00000000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils 004fc000-004fd000 rwxp 000ec000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils 004fd000-0050f000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 00c28000-00c49000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] ... 7f67c000-7f69d000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 7f7fc000-7f7fd000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 7fcf1000-7fcf3000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar] 7fcf3000-7fcf4000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] Signed-off-by: Paul Burton <paul.burton@mips.com> Reported-by: Huacai Chen <chenhc@lemote.com> Fixes: ebb5e78cc634 ("MIPS: Initial implementation of a VDSO") Cc: Huacai Chen <chenhc@lemote.com> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.4+

MIPS: Make TASK_SIZE reflect proper size for both 32 and 64 bit processes. The TASK_SIZE macro should reflect the size of a user process virtual address space. Previously for 64-bit kernels, this was not the case. The immediate cause of pain was in hugetlbfs/inode.c:hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() where 32-bit processes trying to mmap a huge page would be served a page with an address outside of the 32-bit address range. But there are other uses of TASK_SIZE in the kernel as well that would like an accurate value. The new definition is nice because it now makes TASK_SIZE and TASK_SIZE_OF() yield the same value for any given process. For 32-bit kernels there should be no change, although I did factor out some code in asm/processor.h that became identical for the 32-bit and 64-bit cases. __UA_LIMIT is now set to ~((1 << SEGBITS) - 1) for 64-bit kernels. This should eliminate the possibility of getting a AddressErrorException in the kernel for addresses that pass the access_ok() test. With the patch applied, I can still run o32, n32 and n64 processes, and have an o32 shell fork/exec both n32 and n64 processes.

Only 16K and 64K pages are supported. Enabling will result in a memory overhead of a small number of pages for small applications.

maps4: rework TASK_SIZE macros The following replaces the earlier patches sent. It should address David Rientjes's comments, and has been compile tested on all the architectures that it touches, save for parisc. For the /proc/<pid>/pagemap code[1], we need to able to query how much virtual address space a particular task has. The trick is that we do it through /proc and can't use TASK_SIZE since it references "current" on some arches. The process opening the /proc file might be a 32-bit process opening a 64-bit process's pagemap file. x86_64 already has a TASK_SIZE_OF() macro: #define TASK_SIZE_OF(child) ((test_tsk_thread_flag(child, TIF_IA32)) ? IA32_PAGE_OFFSET : TASK_SIZE64) I'd like to have that for other architectures. So, add it for all the architectures that actually use "current" in their TASK_SIZE. For the others, just add a quick #define in sched.h to use plain old TASK_SIZE. 1. http://www.linuxworld.com/news/2007/042407-kernel.html - MIPS portion from Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix mips build] Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

MIPS: VDSO: Reduce VDSO_RANDOMIZE_SIZE to 64MB for 64bit Commit ea7e0480a4b6 ("MIPS: VDSO: Always map near top of user memory") set VDSO_RANDOMIZE_SIZE to 256MB for 64bit kernel. But take a look at arch/mips/mm/mmap.c we can see that MIN_GAP is 128MB, which means the mmap_base may be at (user_address_top - 128MB).

MIPS: VDSO: Always map near top of user memory When using the legacy mmap layout, for example triggered using ulimit -s unlimited, get_unmapped_area() fills memory from bottom to top starting from a fairly low address near TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE. This placement is suboptimal if the user application wishes to allocate large amounts of heap memory using the brk syscall. With the VDSO being located low in the user's virtual address space, the amount of space available for access using brk is limited much more than it was prior to the introduction of the VDSO. For example: # ulimit -s unlimited; cat /proc/self/maps 00400000-004ec000 r-xp 00000000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils 004fc000-004fd000 rwxp 000ec000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils 004fd000-0050f000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 00cc3000-00ce4000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] 2ab96000-2ab98000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar] 2ab98000-2ab99000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] 2ab99000-2ab9d000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 ... Resolve this by adjusting STACK_TOP to reserve space for the VDSO & providing an address hint to get_unmapped_area() causing it to use this space even when using the legacy mmap layout. We reserve enough space for the VDSO, plus 1MB or 256MB for 32 bit & 64 bit systems respectively within which we randomize the VDSO base address. Previously this randomization was taken care of by the mmap base address randomization performed by arch_mmap_rnd(). The 1MB & 256MB sizes are somewhat arbitrary but chosen such that we have some randomization without taking up too much of the user's virtual address space, which is often in short supply for 32 bit systems. With this the VDSO is always mapped at a high address, leaving lots of space for statically linked programs to make use of brk: # ulimit -s unlimited; cat /proc/self/maps 00400000-004ec000 r-xp 00000000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils 004fc000-004fd000 rwxp 000ec000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils 004fd000-0050f000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 00c28000-00c49000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] ... 7f67c000-7f69d000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 7f7fc000-7f7fd000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 7fcf1000-7fcf3000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar] 7fcf3000-7fcf4000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] Signed-off-by: Paul Burton <paul.burton@mips.com> Reported-by: Huacai Chen <chenhc@lemote.com> Fixes: ebb5e78cc634 ("MIPS: Initial implementation of a VDSO") Cc: Huacai Chen <chenhc@lemote.com> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.4+

MIPS: Make TASK_SIZE reflect proper size for both 32 and 64 bit processes. The TASK_SIZE macro should reflect the size of a user process virtual address space. Previously for 64-bit kernels, this was not the case. The immediate cause of pain was in hugetlbfs/inode.c:hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() where 32-bit processes trying to mmap a huge page would be served a page with an address outside of the 32-bit address range. But there are other uses of TASK_SIZE in the kernel as well that would like an accurate value. The new definition is nice because it now makes TASK_SIZE and TASK_SIZE_OF() yield the same value for any given process. For 32-bit kernels there should be no change, although I did factor out some code in asm/processor.h that became identical for the 32-bit and 64-bit cases. __UA_LIMIT is now set to ~((1 << SEGBITS) - 1) for 64-bit kernels. This should eliminate the possibility of getting a AddressErrorException in the kernel for addresses that pass the access_ok() test. With the patch applied, I can still run o32, n32 and n64 processes, and have an o32 shell fork/exec both n32 and n64 processes.

MIPS: Basic MSA context switching support This patch adds support for context switching the MSA vector registers. These 128 bit vector registers are aliased with the FP registers - an FP register accesses the least significant bits of the vector register with which it is aliased (ie. the register with the same index). Due to both this & the requirement that the scalar FPU must be 64-bit (FR=1) if enabled at the same time as MSA the kernel will enable MSA & scalar FP at the same time for tasks which use MSA. If we restore the MSA vector context then we might as well enable the scalar FPU since the reason it was left disabled was to allow for lazy FP context restoring - but we just restored the FP context as it's a subset of the vector context. If we restore the FP context and have previously used MSA then we have to restore the whole vector context anyway (see comment in enable_restore_fp_context for details) so similarly we might as well enable MSA. Thus if a task does not use MSA then it will continue to behave as without this patch - the scalar FP context will be saved & restored as usual. But if a task executes an MSA instruction then it will save & restore the vector context forever more.

MIPS: Use per-mm page to execute branch delay slot instructions In some cases the kernel needs to execute an instruction from the delay slot of an emulated branch instruction. These cases include: - Emulated floating point branch instructions (bc1[ft]l?) for systems which don't include an FPU, or upon which the kernel is run with the "nofpu" parameter. - MIPSr6 systems running binaries targeting older revisions of the architecture, which may include branch instructions whose encodings are no longer valid in MIPSr6. Executing instructions from such delay slots is done by writing the instruction to memory followed by a trap, as part of an "emuframe", and executing it. This avoids the requirement of an emulator for the entire MIPS instruction set. Prior to this patch such emuframes are written to the user stack and executed from there. This patch moves FP branch delay emuframes off of the user stack and into a per-mm page. Allocating a page per-mm leaves userland with access to only what it had access to previously, and compared to other solutions is relatively simple. When a thread requires a delay slot emulation, it is allocated a frame. A thread may only have one frame allocated at any one time, since it may only ever be executing one instruction at any one time. In order to ensure that we can free up allocated frame later, its index is recorded in struct thread_struct. In the typical case, after executing the delay slot instruction we'll execute a break instruction with the BRK_MEMU code. This traps back to the kernel & leads to a call to do_dsemulret which frees the allocated frame & moves the user PC back to the instruction that would have executed following the emulated branch. In some cases the delay slot instruction may be invalid, such as a branch, or may trigger an exception. In these cases the BRK_MEMU break instruction will not be hit. In order to ensure that frames are freed this patch introduces dsemul_thread_cleanup() and calls it to free any allocated frame upon thread exit. If the instruction generated an exception & leads to a signal being delivered to the thread, or indeed if a signal simply happens to be delivered to the thread whilst it is executing from the struct emuframe, then we need to take care to exit the frame appropriately. This is done by either rolling back the user PC to the branch or advancing it to the continuation PC prior to signal delivery, using dsemul_thread_rollback(). If this were not done then a sigreturn would return to the struct emuframe, and if that frame had meanwhile been used in response to an emulated branch instruction within the signal handler then we would execute the wrong user code. Whilst a user could theoretically place something like a compact branch to self in a delay slot and cause their thread to become stuck in an infinite loop with the frame never being deallocated, this would: - Only affect the users single process. - Be architecturally invalid since there would be a branch in the delay slot, which is forbidden. - Be extremely unlikely to happen by mistake, and provide a program with no more ability to harm the system than a simple infinite loop would. If a thread requires a delay slot emulation & no frame is available to it (ie. the process has enough other threads that all frames are currently in use) then the thread joins a waitqueue. It will sleep until a frame is freed by another thread in the process. Since we now know whether a thread has an allocated frame due to our tracking of its index, the cookie field of struct emuframe is removed as we can be more certain whether we have a valid frame. Since a thread may only ever have a single frame at any given time, the epc field of struct emuframe is also removed & the PC to continue from is instead stored in struct thread_struct. Together these changes simplify & shrink struct emuframe somewhat, allowing twice as many frames to fit into the page allocated for them. The primary benefit of this patch is that we are now free to mark the user stack non-executable where that is possible.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

MIPS: Avoid clobbering struct pt_regs in kthreads The resume() implementation octeon_switch.S examines the saved cp0_status register. We were clobbering the entire pt_regs structure in kernel threads leading to random crashes. When switching away from a kernel thread, the saved cp0_status is examined and if bit 30 is set it is cleared and the CP2 state saved into the pt_regs structure. Since the kernel thread stack overlaid the pt_regs structure this resulted in a corrupt stack. When the kthread with the corrupt stack was resumed, it could crash if it used any of the data in the stack that was clobbered. We fix it by moving the kernel thread stack down so it doesn't overlay pt_regs. Signed-off-by: David Daney <ddaney@caviumnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

MIPS: Use GCC __builtin_prefetch() to implement prefetch(). GCC's __builtin_prefetch() was introduced a long time ago, all supported GCC versions have it. Lets do what the big boys up in linux/prefetch.h do, except we use '1' as the third parameter to provoke 'PREF 0,...' and 'PREF 1,...' instead of other prefetch hints. This allows for better code generation. In theory the existing embedded asm could be optimized, but the compiler has these builtins, so there is really no point.

MIPS,prctl: add PR_[GS]ET_FP_MODE prctl options for MIPS Userland code may be built using an ABI which permits linking to objects that have more restrictive floating point requirements. For example, userland code may be built to target the O32 FPXX ABI. Such code may be linked with other FPXX code, or code built for either one of the more restrictive FP32 or FP64. When linking with more restrictive code, the overall requirement of the process becomes that of the more restrictive code. The kernel has no way to know in advance which mode the process will need to be executed in, and indeed it may need to change during execution. The dynamic loader is the only code which will know the overall required mode, and so it needs to have a means to instruct the kernel to switch the FP mode of the process. This patch introduces 2 new options to the prctl syscall which provide such a capability. The FP mode of the process is represented as a simple bitmask combining a number of mode bits mirroring those present in the hardware. Userland can either retrieve the current FP mode of the process: mode = prctl(PR_GET_FP_MODE); or modify the current FP mode of the process: err = prctl(PR_SET_FP_MODE, new_mode); Signed-off-by: Paul Burton <paul.burton@imgtec.com> Cc: Matthew Fortune <matthew.fortune@imgtec.com> Cc: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@imgtec.com> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/8899/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
