MIPS: vdso: Invalid GIC access through VDSO

2021-07-20T14:22:44+00:00

[ Upstream commit 47ce8527fbba145a7723685bc9a27d9855e06491 ]

Accessing raw timers (currently only CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW) through VDSO
doesn't return the correct time when using the GIC as clock source.
The address of the GIC mapped page is in this case not calculated
correctly. The GIC mapped page is calculated from the VDSO data by
subtracting PAGE_SIZE:

  void *get_gic(const struct vdso_data *data) {
    return (void __iomem *)data - PAGE_SIZE;
  }

However, the data pointer is not page aligned for raw clock sources.
This is because the VDSO data for raw clock sources (CS_RAW = 1) is
stored after the VDSO data for coarse clock sources (CS_HRES_COARSE = 0).
Therefore, only the VDSO data for CS_HRES_COARSE is page aligned:

  +--------------------+
  |                    |
  | vd[CS_RAW]         | ---+
  | vd[CS_HRES_COARSE] |    |
  +--------------------+    | -PAGE_SIZE
  |                    |    |
  |  GIC mapped page   | <--+
  |                    |
  +--------------------+

When __arch_get_hw_counter() is called with &vd[CS_RAW], get_gic returns
the wrong address (somewhere inside the GIC mapped page). The GIC counter
values are not returned which results in an invalid time.

MIPS: VDSO: Use same -m%-float cflag as the kernel proper

2019-09-21T05:12:44+00:00

commit 0648e50e548d881d025b9419a1a168753c8e2bf7 upstream.

The MIPS VDSO build currently doesn't provide the -msoft-float flag to
the compiler as the kernel proper does. This results in an attempt to
use the compiler's default floating point configuration, which can be
problematic in cases where this is incompatible with the target CPU's
-march= flag. For example decstation_defconfig fails to build using
toolchains in which gcc was configured --with-fp-32=xx with the
following error:

    LDS     arch/mips/vdso/vdso.lds
  cc1: error: '-march=r3000' requires '-mfp32'
  make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:379: arch/mips/vdso/vdso.lds] Error 1

The kernel proper avoids this error because we build with the
-msoft-float compiler flag, rather than using the compiler's default.
Pass this flag through to the VDSO build so that it too becomes agnostic
to the toolchain's floating point configuration.

Note that this is filtered out from KBUILD_CFLAGS rather than simply
always using -msoft-float such that if we switch the kernel to use
-mno-float in the future the VDSO will automatically inherit the change.

The VDSO doesn't actually include any floating point code, and its
.MIPS.abiflags section is already manually generated to specify that
it's compatible with any floating point ABI. As such this change should
have no effect on the resulting VDSO, apart from fixing the build
failure for affected toolchains.

MIPS: VDSO: Prevent use of smp_processor_id()

2019-09-21T05:12:44+00:00

commit 351fdddd366245c0fb4636f32edfb4198c8d6b8c upstream.

VDSO code should not be using smp_processor_id(), since it is executed
in user mode.
Introduce a VDSO-specific path which will cause a compile-time
or link-time error (depending upon support for __compiletime_error) if
the VDSO ever incorrectly attempts to use smp_processor_id().

MIPS: VDSO: Include $(ccflags-vdso) in o32,n32 .lds builds

2019-02-20T09:13:19+00:00

commit 67fc5dc8a541e8f458d7f08bf88ff55933bf9f9d upstream.

When generating vdso-o32.lds & vdso-n32.lds for use with programs
running as compat ABIs under 64b kernels, we previously haven't included
the compiler flags that are supposedly common to all ABIs - ie. those in
the ccflags-vdso variable.

This is problematic in cases where we need to provide the -m%-float flag
in order to ensure that we don't attempt to use a floating point ABI
that's incompatible with the target CPU & ABI. For example a toolchain
using current gcc trunk configured --with-fp-32=xx fails to build a
64r6el_defconfig kernel with the following error:

  cc1: error: '-march=mips1' requires '-mfp32'
  make[2]: *** [arch/mips/vdso/Makefile:135: arch/mips/vdso/vdso-o32.lds] Error 1

Include $(ccflags-vdso) for the compat VDSO .lds builds, just as it is
included for the native VDSO .lds & when compiling objects for the
compat VDSOs. This ensures we consistently provide the -msoft-float flag
amongst others, avoiding the problem by ensuring we're agnostic to the
toolchain defaults.

MIPS: Fix -mabi=64 build of vdso.lds

2016-10-28T07:01:30+00:00

commit 034827c727f7f3946a18355b63995b402c226c82 upstream.

The native ABI vDSO linker script vdso.lds is built by preprocessing
vdso.lds.S, with the native -mabi flag passed in to get the correct ABI
definitions. Unfortunately however certain toolchains choke on -mabi=64
without a corresponding compatible -march flag, for example:

cc1: error: ‘-march=mips32r2’ is not compatible with the selected ABI
scripts/Makefile.build:338: recipe for target 'arch/mips/vdso/vdso.lds' failed

Fix this by including ccflags-vdso in the KBUILD_CPPFLAGS for vdso.lds,
which includes the appropriate -march flag.

MIPS: Build microMIPS VDSO for microMIPS kernels

2016-06-08T01:14:32+00:00

commit bb93078e655be1e24d68f28f2756676e62c037ce upstream.

MicroMIPS kernels may be expected to run on microMIPS only cores which
don't support the normal MIPS instruction set, so be sure to pass the
-mmicromips flag through to the VDSO cflags.

MIPS: VDSO: Fix build error with binutils 2.24 and earlier

Commit 2a037f310bab ("MIPS: VDSO: Fix build error") tries to fix a build
error seen with binutils 2.24 and earlier. However, the fix does not work,
and again results in the already known build errors if the kernel is built
with an earlier version of binutils.

MIPS: VDSO: Fix build error

2015-12-22T11:23:31+00:00

Commit ebb5e78cc634 ("MIPS: Initial implementation of a VDSO") introduced a
build error.

For MIPS VDSO to be compiled it requires binutils version 2.25 or above but
the check in the Makefile had inverted logic causing it to be compiled in if
binutils is below 2.25.

This fixes the following compilation error:
