[ Upstream commit ab8a6d821179ab9bea1a9179f535ccba6330c1ed ]

KGDB_call_nmi_hook is called by other cpu through smp call.
MIPS smp call is processed in ipi irq handler and regs is saved in
 handle_int.
So kgdb_call_nmi_hook get regs by get_irq_regs and regs will be passed
 to kgdb_cpu_enter.

<title>MIPS: KGDB: Use kernel context for sleeping threads</title>

<id>162b270c664dca2e0944308e92f9fcc887151a72</id>
<content type='text'>
KGDB is a kernel debug stub and it can't be used to debug userland as it
can only safely access kernel memory.

On MIPS however KGDB has always got the register state of sleeping
processes from the userland register context at the beginning of the
kernel stack. This is meaningless for kernel threads (which never enter
userland), and for user threads it prevents the user seeing what it is
doing while in the kernel:

(gdb) info threads
  Id   Target Id         Frame
  ...
  3    Thread 2 (kthreadd) 0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
  2    Thread 1 (init)   0x000000007705c4b4 in ?? ()
  1    Thread -2 (shadowCPU0) 0xffffffff8012524c in arch_kgdb_breakpoint () at arch/mips/kernel/kgdb.c:201

Get the register state instead from the (partial) kernel register
context stored in the task's thread_struct for resume() to restore. All
threads now correctly appear to be in context_switch():

(gdb) info threads
  Id   Target Id         Frame
  ...
  3    Thread 2 (kthreadd) context_switch (rq=&lt;optimized out&gt;, cookie=..., next=&lt;optimized out&gt;, prev=0x0) at kernel/sched/core.c:2903
  2    Thread 1 (init)   context_switch (rq=&lt;optimized out&gt;, cookie=..., next=&lt;optimized out&gt;, prev=0x0) at kernel/sched/core.c:2903
  1    Thread -2 (shadowCPU0) 0xffffffff8012524c in arch_kgdb_breakpoint () at arch/mips/kernel/kgdb.c:201

Call clobbered registers which aren't saved and exception registers
(BadVAddr &amp; Cause) which can't be easily determined without stack
unwinding are reported as 0. The PC is taken from the return address,
such that the state presented matches that found immediately after
returning from resume().

Commit 854700115ecf ([MIPS] kgdb: add arch support for the kernel's kgdb core)
added the 'kgdb_early_setup' flag to avoid  calling trap_init() and init_IRQ()
the second time, however the code that called these functions earlier,  from
kgdb_arch_init(), had been already removed by that  time,  so the flag never
served any useful purpose. Remove the related code along with ugly #ifdef'ery
at last.

When flushing the icache, make sure the address limit is correct
so the appropriate 'cache' instruction will be used. This has no
impact on cores operating in non-eva mode. However, when EVA is
enabled, we ensure that 'cache' will be used instead of 'cachee'.

<title>mips,kgdb: fix recursive page fault with CONFIG_KPROBES</title>

<id>f0a996eeeda214f4293e234df33b29bec003b536</id>
<content type='text'>
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:
[&lt;807b7548&gt;] dump_stack+0x20/0x54
[&lt;807b7548&gt;] 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.
