commit 8374c2cb83b95b3c92f129fd56527225c20a058c upstream.

With a 32-bit kernel running on 64-bit MIPS hardware the hardcoded value
of `cpu_vmbits' only records the size of compatibility useg and does not
reflect the size of native xuseg or the complete range of values allowed
in the VPN2 field of TLB entries.

An upcoming change will need the actual VPN2 value range permitted even
in 32-bit kernel configurations, so always include the `vmbits' member
in `struct cpuinfo_mips' and probe for SEGBITS when running on 64-bit
hardware and resorting to the currently hardcoded value of 31 on 32-bit
processors.  No functional change for users of `cpu_vmbits'.

commit 1cb6ab446424649f03c82334634360c2e3043684 upstream.

Loongson64 C and G processors have EXTIMER feature which
is conflicting with CP0 counter.

Although the processor resets in EXTIMER disabled &amp; INTIMER
enabled mode, which is compatible with MIPS CP0 compare, firmware
may attempt to enable EXTIMER and interfere CP0 compare.

Set timer mode back to MIPS compatible mode to fix booting on
systems with such firmware before we have an actual driver for
EXTIMER.

commit 65fee014dc41a774bcd94896f3fb380bc39d8dda upstream.

Commit 7db5e9e9e5e6c10d7d ("MIPS: loongson64: fix FTLB configuration")
move decode_configs() from the beginning of cpu_probe_loongson() to the
end in order to fix FTLB configuration. However, it breaks the CPUCFG
decoding because decode_configs() use "c-&gt;options = xxxx" rather than
"c-&gt;options |= xxxx", all information get from CPUCFG by decode_cpucfg()
is lost.

This causes error when creating a KVM guest on Loongson-3A4000:
Exception Code: 4 not handled @ PC: 0000000087ad5981, inst: 0xcb7a1898 BadVaddr: 0x0 Status: 0x0

Fix this by moving the c-&gt;cputype setting to the beginning and moving
decode_configs() after that.

[ Upstream commit 7db5e9e9e5e6c10d7d26f8df7f8fd8841cb15ee7 ]

It turns out that 'decode_configs' -&gt; 'set_ftlb_enable' is called under
c-&gt;cputype unset, which leaves FTLB disabled on BOTH 3A2000 and 3A3000

Fix it by calling "decode_configs" after c-&gt;cputype is initialized

<title>MIPS: Loongson64: Use _CACHE_UNCACHED instead of _CACHE_UNCACHED_ACCELERATED</title>

[ Upstream commit 5e65c52ec716af6e8f51dacdaeb4a4d872249af1 ]

Loongson64 processors have a writecombine issue that maybe failed to
write back framebuffer used with ATI Radeon or AMD GPU at times, after
commit 8a08e50cee66 ("drm: Permit video-buffers writecombine mapping
for MIPS"), there exists some errors such as blurred screen and lockup,
and so on.

[   60.958721] radeon 0000:03:00.0: ring 0 stalled for more than 10079msec
[   60.965315] radeon 0000:03:00.0: GPU lockup (current fence id 0x0000000000000112 last fence id 0x000000000000011d on ring 0)
[   60.976525] radeon 0000:03:00.0: ring 3 stalled for more than 10086msec
[   60.983156] radeon 0000:03:00.0: GPU lockup (current fence id 0x0000000000000374 last fence id 0x00000000000003a8 on ring 3)

As discussed earlier [1], it might be better to disable writecombine
on the CPU detection side because the root cause is unknown now.

Actually, this patch is a temporary solution to just make it work well,
it is not a proper and final solution, I hope someone will have a better
solution to fix this issue in the future.

commit a5360958a3cd1d876aae1f504ae014658513e1af upstream.

The JZ4760 has the HPTLB as well, but has a XBurst CPU with a D0 CPUID.

Disable the HPTLB for all XBurst CPUs with a D0 CPUID. In the case where
there is no HPTLB (e.g. for older SoCs), this won't have any side
effect.

cpu-probe.c has grown when supporting more and more CPUs and there
are use cases where probing for all the CPUs isn't useful like
running on a R3k system. But still the fpu handling is nearly
the same. For sharing put the fpu code into it's own file.

<title>MIPS: cpu-probe: ingenic: Fix broken BUG_ON</title>

<id>5f5ed0ebcf84c7479c93a28c5c0e1b0b6926883b</id>
<content type='text'>
The previous code was doing:
BUG_ON(!__builtin_constant_p(cpu_has_counter) || cpu_has_counter);

This only worked as the "cpu_has_counter" macro was overridden in
&lt;cpu-feature-overrides.h&gt;. The default "cpu_has_counter" macro is
non-constant, which triggered the BUG_ON() independently of the value
returned by the macro.

What we want to check here, is that *if* the macro was overridden to a
compile-time constant, then must be defined to zero, otherwise it's a
bug.

So the correct check is:
BUG_ON(__builtin_constant_p(cpu_has_counter) &amp;&amp; cpu_has_counter);

The previous code was doing:
BUG_ON(!__builtin_constant_p(cpu_has_counter) || cpu_has_counter);

This only worked as the "cpu_has_counter" macro was overridden in
&lt;cpu-feature-overrides.h&gt;. The default "cpu_has_counter" macro is
non-constant, which triggered the BUG_ON() independently of the value
returned by the macro.

What we want to check here, is that *if* the macro was overridden to a
compile-time constant, then must be defined to zero, otherwise it's a
bug.

So the correct check is:
BUG_ON(__builtin_constant_p(cpu_has_counter) &amp;&amp; cpu_has_counter);
