[ Upstream commit abcabb9e30a1f9a69c76776f8abffc31c377b542 ]

"cpu_probe" is called both by BP and APs, but reserving exception vector
(like 0x0-0x1000) called by "cpu_probe" need once and calling on APs is
too late since memblock is unavailable at that time.

So, reserve exception vector ONLY by BP.

<title>MIPS: Add 'memory' clobber to csum_ipv6_magic() inline assembler</title>

[ Upstream commit d55347bfe4e66dce2e1e7501e5492f4af3e315f8 ]

After 'lib: checksum: Use aligned accesses for ip_fast_csum and
csum_ipv6_magic tests' was applied, the test_csum_ipv6_magic unit test
started failing for all mips platforms, both little and bit endian.
Oddly enough, adding debug code into test_csum_ipv6_magic() made the
problem disappear.

The gcc manual says:

"The "memory" clobber tells the compiler that the assembly code performs
 memory reads or writes to items other than those listed in the input
 and output operands (for example, accessing the memory pointed to by one
 of the input parameters)
"

This is definitely the case for csum_ipv6_magic(). Indeed, adding the
'memory' clobber fixes the problem.

<title>work around gcc bugs with 'asm goto' with outputs</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 68fb3ca0e408e00db1c3f8fccdfa19e274c033be upstream.

We've had issues with gcc and 'asm goto' before, and we created a
'asm_volatile_goto()' macro for that in the past: see commits
3f0116c3238a ("compiler/gcc4: Add quirk for 'asm goto' miscompilation
bug") and a9f180345f53 ("compiler/gcc4: Make quirk for
asm_volatile_goto() unconditional").

Then, much later, we ended up removing the workaround in commit
43c249ea0b1e ("compiler-gcc.h: remove ancient workaround for gcc PR
58670") because we no longer supported building the kernel with the
affected gcc versions, but we left the macro uses around.

Now, Sean Christopherson reports a new version of a very similar
problem, which is fixed by re-applying that ancient workaround.  But the
problem in question is limited to only the 'asm goto with outputs'
cases, so instead of re-introducing the old workaround as-is, let's
rename and limit the workaround to just that much less common case.

It looks like there are at least two separate issues that all hit in
this area:

 (a) some versions of gcc don't mark the asm goto as 'volatile' when it
     has outputs:

        https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=98619
        https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110420

     which is easy to work around by just adding the 'volatile' by hand.

 (b) Internal compiler errors:

        https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110422

     which are worked around by adding the extra empty 'asm' as a
     barrier, as in the original workaround.

but the problem Sean sees may be a third thing since it involves bad
code generation (not an ICE) even with the manually added 'volatile'.

The same old workaround works for this case, even if this feels a
bit like voodoo programming and may only be hiding the issue.

<title>mips: Call lose_fpu(0) before initializing fcr31 in mips_set_personality_nan</title>

commit 59be5c35850171e307ca5d3d703ee9ff4096b948 upstream.

If we still own the FPU after initializing fcr31, when we are preempted
the dirty value in the FPU will be read out and stored into fcr31,
clobbering our setting.  This can cause an improper floating-point
environment after execve().  For example:

    zsh% cat measure.c
    #include &lt;fenv.h&gt;
    int main() { return fetestexcept(FE_INEXACT); }
    zsh% cc measure.c -o measure -lm
    zsh% echo $((1.0/3)) # raising FE_INEXACT
    0.33333333333333331
    zsh% while ./measure; do ; done
    (stopped in seconds)

Call lose_fpu(0) before setting fcr31 to prevent this.

Lantiq uses a common kernel config for devices with 24Kc and 34Kc cores.
The changes made previously to add support for interrupts on all cores
work on 24Kc platforms with SMP disabled and 34Kc platforms with SMP
enabled. This patch fixes boot issues on Danube (single core 24Kc) with
SMP enabled.

<title>mips: Fix max_mapnr being uninitialized on early stages</title>

<content type='text'>
commit e1a9ae45736989c972a8d1c151bc390678ae6205 upstream.

max_mapnr variable is utilized in the pfn_valid() method in order to
determine the upper PFN space boundary. Having it uninitialized
effectively makes any PFN passed to that method invalid. That in its turn
causes the kernel mm-subsystem occasion malfunctions even after the
max_mapnr variable is actually properly updated. For instance,
pfn_valid() is called in the init_unavailable_range() method in the
framework of the calls-chain on MIPS:
setup_arch()
+-&gt; paging_init()
    +-&gt; free_area_init()
        +-&gt; memmap_init()
            +-&gt; memmap_init_zone_range()
                +-&gt; init_unavailable_range()

Since pfn_valid() always returns "false" value before max_mapnr is
initialized in the mem_init() method, any flatmem page-holes will be left
in the poisoned/uninitialized state including the IO-memory pages. Thus
any further attempts to map/remap the IO-memory by using MMU may fail.
In particular it happened in my case on attempt to map the SRAM region.
The kernel bootup procedure just crashed on the unhandled unaligned access
bug raised in the __update_cache() method:

&gt; Unhandled kernel unaligned access[#1]:
&gt; CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.7.0-rc1-XXX-dirty #2056
&gt; ...

&gt; [&lt;80889d20&gt;] platform_probe+0x68/0xec
&gt; ...

Let's fix the problem by initializing the max_mapnr variable as soon as
the required data is available. In particular it can be done right in the
paging_init() method before free_area_init() is called since all the PFN
zone boundaries have already been calculated by that time.

<title>mips: Fix incorrect max_low_pfn adjustment</title>

[ Upstream commit 0f5cc249ff73552d3bd864e62f85841dafaa107d ]

max_low_pfn variable is incorrectly adjusted if the kernel is built with
high memory support and the later is detected in a running system, so the
memory which actually can be directly mapped is getting into the highmem
zone. See the ZONE_NORMAL range on my MIPS32r5 system:

&gt; Zone ranges:
&gt;   DMA      [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000ffffff]
&gt;   Normal   [mem 0x0000000001000000-0x0000000007ffffff]
&gt;   HighMem  [mem 0x0000000008000000-0x000000020fffffff]

while the zones are supposed to look as follows:

&gt; Zone ranges:
&gt;   DMA      [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000ffffff]
&gt;   Normal   [mem 0x0000000001000000-0x000000001fffffff]
&gt;   HighMem  [mem 0x0000000020000000-0x000000020fffffff]

Even though the physical memory within the range [0x08000000;0x20000000]
belongs to MMIO on our system, we don't really want it to be considered as
high memory since on MIPS32 that range still can be directly mapped.

Note there might be other problems caused by the max_low_pfn variable
misconfiguration. For instance high_memory variable is initialize with
virtual address corresponding to the max_low_pfn PFN, and by design it
must define the upper bound on direct map memory, then end of the normal
zone. That in its turn potentially may cause problems in accessing the
memory by means of the /dev/mem and /dev/kmem devices.

Let's fix the discovered misconfiguration then. It turns out the commit
a94e4f24ec83 ("MIPS: init: Drop boot_mem_map") didn't introduce the
max_low_pfn adjustment quite correct. If the kernel is built with high
memory support and the system is equipped with high memory, the
max_low_pfn variable will need to be initialized with PFN of the most
upper directly reachable memory address so the zone normal would be
correctly setup. On MIPS that PFN corresponds to PFN_DOWN(HIGHMEM_START).
If the system is built with no high memory support and one is detected in
the running system, we'll just need to adjust the max_pfn variable to
discard the found high memory from the system and leave the max_low_pfn as
is, since the later will be less than PFN_DOWN(HIGHMEM_START) anyway by
design of the for_each_memblock() loop performed a bit early in the
bootmem_init() method.

[ Upstream commit 0d0a3748a2cb38f9da1f08d357688ebd982eb788 ]

dmi_early_remap() has been defined as ioremap_cache() which on MIPS32 gets
to be converted to the VM-based mapping. DMI early remapping is performed
at the setup_arch() stage with no VM available. So calling the
dmi_early_remap() for MIPS32 causes the system to crash at the early boot
time. Fix that by converting dmi_early_remap() to the uncached remapping
which is always available on both 32 and 64-bits MIPS systems.

Note this change shall not cause any regressions on the current DMI
support implementation because on the early boot-up stage neither MIPS32
nor MIPS64 has the cacheable ioremapping support anyway.
