2014-01-13MIPS: Support for 64-bit FP with O32 binariesPaul Burton1-2/+43
CPUs implementing MIPS32 R2 may include a 64-bit FPU, just as MIPS64 CPUs do. In order to preserve backwards compatibility a 64-bit FPU will act like a 32-bit FPU (by accessing doubles from the least significant 32 bits of an even-odd pair of FP registers) when the Status.FR bit is zero, again just like a mips64 CPU. The standard O32 ABI is defined expecting a 32-bit FPU, however recent toolchains support use of a 64-bit FPU from an O32 MIPS32 executable. When an ELF executable is built to use a 64-bit FPU a new flag (EF_MIPS_FP64) is set in the ELF header. With this patch the kernel will check the EF_MIPS_FP64 flag when executing an O32 binary, and set Status.FR accordingly. The addition of O32 64-bit FP support lessens the opportunity for optimisation in the FPU emulator, so a CONFIG_MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT Kconfig option is introduced to allow this support to be disabled for those that don't require it. Inspired by an earlier patch by Leonid Yegoshin, but implemented more cleanly & correctly.

2013-10-07MIPS: stack protector: Fix per-task canary switchJames Hogan1-1/+1
Commit 1400eb6 (MIPS: r4k,octeon,r2300: stack protector: change canary per task) was merged in v3.11 and introduced assembly in the MIPS resume functions to update the value of the current canary in __stack_chk_guard. However it used PTR_L resulting in a load of the canary value, instead of PTR_LA to construct its address. The value is intended to be random but is then treated as an address in the subsequent LONG_S (store). This was observed to cause a fault and panic: CPU 0 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 139fea20, epc == 8000cc0c, ra == 8034f2a4 Oops[#1]: ... $24 : 139fea20 1e1f7cb6 ... Call Trace: [<8000cc0c>] resume+0xac/0x118 [<8034f2a4>] __schedule+0x5f8/0x78c [<8034f4e0>] schedule_preempt_disabled+0x20/0x2c [<80348eec>] rest_init+0x74/0x84 [<804dc990>] start_kernel+0x43c/0x454 Code: 3c18804b 8f184030 8cb901f8 <af190000> 00c0e021 8cb002f0 8cb102f4 8cb202f8 8cb302fc This can also be forced by modifying arch/mips/include/asm/stackprotector.h so that the default __stack_chk_guard value is more likely to be a bad (or unaligned) pointer. Fix it to use PTR_LA instead, to load the address of the canary value, which the LONG_S can then use to write into it.

2013-07-01MIPS: r4k,octeon,r2300: stack protector: change canary per taskGregory Fong1-0/+6
For non-SMP, uses the new random canary value that is stored in the task struct whenever a new task is forked. Based on ARM version in df0698be14c6683606d5df2d83e3ae40f85ed0d9 and subject to the same limitations: the variable GCC expects, __stack_chk_guard, is global, so this will not work on SMP. Quoting Nicolas Pitre <nico@fluxnic.net>: "One way to overcome this GCC limitation would be to locate the __stack_chk_guard variable into a memory page of its own for each CPU, and then use TLB locking to have each CPU see its own page at the same virtual address for each of them."

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!
