commit 38a35a78c5e270cbe53c4fef6b0d3c2da90dd849 upstream.

Layout of coprocessor registers in the elf_xtregs_t and
xtregs_coprocessor_t may be different due to alignment. Thus it is not
always possible to copy data between the xtregs_coprocessor_t structure
and the elf_xtregs_t and get correct values for all registers.
Use a table of offsets and sizes of individual coprocessor register
groups to do coprocessor context copying in the ptrace_getxregs and
ptrace_setxregs.
This fixes incorrect coprocessor register values reading from the user
process by the native gdb on an xtensa core with multiple coprocessors
and registers with high alignment requirements.

commit 03bc996af0cc71c7f30c384d8ce7260172423b34 upstream.

Coprocessor context offsets are used by the assembly code that moves
coprocessor context between the individual fields of the
thread_info::xtregs_cp structure and coprocessor registers.
This fixes coprocessor context clobbering on flushing and reloading
during normal user code execution and user process debugging in the
presence of more than one coprocessor in the core configuration.

commit 2958b66694e018c552be0b60521fec27e8d12988 upstream.

coprocessor_flush_all may be called from a context of a thread that is
different from the thread being flushed. In that case contents of the
cpenable special register may not match ti-&gt;cpenable of the target
thread, resulting in unhandled coprocessor exception in the kernel
context.
Set cpenable special register to the ti-&gt;cpenable of the target register
for the duration of the flush and restore it afterwards.
This fixes the following crash caused by coprocessor register inspection
in native gdb:

  (gdb) p/x $w0
  Illegal instruction in kernel: sig: 9 [#1] PREEMPT
  Call Trace:
    ___might_sleep+0x184/0x1a4

commit 40dc948f234b73497c3278875eb08a01d5854d3f upstream.

The bootloader may pass physical address of the boot parameters structure
to the MMUv3 kernel in the register a2. Code in the _SetupMMU block in
the arch/xtensa/kernel/head.S is supposed to map that physical address to
the virtual address in the configured virtual memory layout.

This code haven't been updated when additional 256+256 and 512+512
memory layouts were introduced and it may produce wrong addresses when
used with these layouts.

<title>xtensa: make sure bFLT stack is 16 byte aligned</title>

commit 0773495b1f5f1c5e23551843f87b5ff37e7af8f7 upstream.

Xtensa ABI requires stack alignment to be at least 16. In noMMU
configuration ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN is used to align stack. Make it at
least 16.

This fixes the following runtime error in noMMU configuration, caused by
interaction between insufficiently aligned stack and alloca function,
that results in corruption of on-stack variable in the libc function
glob:

 Caught unhandled exception in 'sh' (pid = 47, pc = 0x02d05d65)
  - should not happen
  EXCCAUSE is 15

This section collects all source .note.* sections together in the
vmlinux image. Without it .note.Linux section may be placed at address
0, while the rest of the kernel is at its normal address, resulting in a
huge vmlinux.bin image that may not be linked into the xtensa Image.elf.

commit fec3259c9f747c039f90e99570540114c8d81a14 upstream.

Cache invalidation macros use cache line size to iterate over
invalidated cache lines, assuming that all cache ways are invalidated by
single instruction, but xtensa ISA recommends to not assume that for
future compatibility:
  In some implementations all ways at index Addry-1..z are invalidated
  regardless of the specified way, but for future compatibility this
  behavior should not be assumed.

Iterate over all cache ways in ___invalidate_icache_all and
___invalidate_dcache_all.

commit be75de25251f7cf3e399ca1f584716a95510d24a upstream.

When building kernel for xtensa cores with big cache lines (e.g. 128
bytes or more) __loop_cache_all and __loop_cache_page may generate
assembly instructions with immediate fields that are too big. This
results in the following build errors:

  arch/xtensa/mm/misc.S: Assembler messages:
  arch/xtensa/mm/misc.S:464: Error: operand 2 of 'diwbi' has invalid value '256'
  arch/xtensa/mm/misc.S:464: Error: operand 2 of 'diwbi' has invalid value '384'
  arch/xtensa/kernel/head.S: Assembler messages:
  arch/xtensa/kernel/head.S:172: Error: operand 2 of 'diu' has invalid value '256'
  arch/xtensa/kernel/head.S:172: Error: operand 2 of 'diu' has invalid value '384'

  arch/xtensa/kernel/head.S:255: Error: operand 2 of 'diwb' has invalid value '384'

Add parameter max_immed to these macros and use it to limit values of
immediate operands. Extract common code of these macros into the new
macro __loop_cache_unroll.

commit 7de712ccc096b81d23cc0a941cd9b8cb3956605d upstream.

While working on changing this code to use force_sig_fault I
discovered that do_unaliged_user is sets si_signo to SIGBUS and passes
SIGSEGV to force_sig_info.  Which is just b0rked.

The code is reporting a SIGBUS error so replace the SIGSEGV with SIGBUS.

commit a6e2f029ae34f41adb6ae3812c32c5d326e1abd2 upstream.

Added the x86 implementation of word-at-a-time to the
generic version, which previously only supported big-endian.

Omitted the x86-specific load_unaligned_zeropad(), which in
any case is also not present for the existing BE-only
implementation of a word-at-a-time, and is only used under
CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS.

Added as a "generic-y" to the Kbuilds of all architectures
that didn't previously have it.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16:
 - Drop change in arch/nios2
 - Adjust context]
