commit 9d417cbe36eee7afdd85c2e871685f8dab7c2dba upstream.

tglx notes:
  This function [futex_detect_cmpxchg] is only needed when an
  architecture has to runtime discover whether the CPU supports it or
  not.  ARM has unconditional support for this, so the obvious thing to
  do is the below.

Fixes linkage failure from Clang randconfigs:
kernel/futex.o:(.text.fixup+0x5c): relocation truncated to fit: R_ARM_JUMP24 against `.init.text'
and boot failures for CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL.

On SPEAr3xx, ethernet driver is not compatible with the SPEAr600

Indeed, SPEAr3xx uses an earlier version of this IP (v3.40) and
needs some driver tuning compare to SPEAr600.

commit 496c5fe25c377ddb7815c4ce8ecfb676f051e9b6 upstream.

In isa206_idle_insn_mayloss() we store various registers into the stack
red zone, which is allowed.

However inside the IDLE_STATE_ENTER_SEQ_NORET macro we save r2 again,
to 0(r1), which corrupts the stack back chain.

We used to do the same in isa206_idle_insn_mayloss() itself, but we
fixed that in 73287caa9210 ("powerpc64/idle: Fix SP offsets when saving
GPRs"), however we missed that the macro also corrupts the back chain.

Corrupting the back chain is bad for debuggability but doesn't
necessarily cause a bug.

However we recently changed the stack handling in some KVM code, and it
now relies on the stack back chain being valid when it returns. The
corruption causes that code to return with r1 pointing somewhere in
kernel data, at some point LR is restored from the stack and we branch
to NULL or somewhere else invalid.

Only affects Power8 hosts running KVM guests, with dynamic_mt_modes
enabled (which it is by default).

The fixes tag below points to the commit that changed the KVM stack
handling, exposing this bug. The actual corruption of the back chain has
always existed since 948cf67c4726 ("powerpc: Add NAP mode support on
Power7 in HV mode").

commit cdeb5d7d890e14f3b70e8087e745c4a6a7d9f337 upstream.

We call idle_kvm_start_guest() from power7_offline() if the thread has
been requested to enter KVM. We pass it the SRR1 value that was returned
from power7_idle_insn() which tells us what sort of wakeup we're
processing.

Depending on the SRR1 value we pass in, the KVM code might enter the
guest, or it might return to us to do some host action if the wakeup
requires it.

If idle_kvm_start_guest() is able to handle the wakeup, and enter the
guest it is supposed to indicate that by returning a zero SRR1 value to
us.

That was the behaviour prior to commit 10d91611f426 ("powerpc/64s:
Reimplement book3s idle code in C"), however in that commit the
handling of SRR1 was reworked, and the zeroing behaviour was lost.

Returning from idle_kvm_start_guest() without zeroing the SRR1 value can
confuse the host offline code, causing the guest to crash and other
weirdness.

commit 9b4416c5095c20e110c82ae602c254099b83b72f upstream.

In commit 10d91611f426 ("powerpc/64s: Reimplement book3s idle code in
C") kvm_start_guest() became idle_kvm_start_guest(). The old code
allocated a stack frame on the emergency stack, but didn't use the
frame to store anything, and also didn't store anything in its caller's
frame.

idle_kvm_start_guest() on the other hand is written more like a normal C
function, it creates a frame on entry, and also stores CR/LR into its
callers frame (per the ABI). The problem is that there is no caller
frame on the emergency stack.

The emergency stack for a given CPU is allocated with:

  paca_ptrs[i]-&gt;emergency_sp = alloc_stack(limit, i) + THREAD_SIZE;

So emergency_sp actually points to the first address above the emergency
stack allocation for a given CPU, we must not store above it without
first decrementing it to create a frame. This is different to the
regular kernel stack, paca-&gt;kstack, which is initialised to point at an
initial frame that is ready to use.

idle_kvm_start_guest() stores the backchain, CR and LR all of which
write outside the allocation for the emergency stack. It then creates a
stack frame and saves the non-volatile registers. Unfortunately the
frame it creates is not large enough to fit the non-volatiles, and so
the saving of the non-volatile registers also writes outside the
emergency stack allocation.

The end result is that we corrupt whatever is at 0-24 bytes, and 112-248
bytes above the emergency stack allocation.

In practice this has gone unnoticed because the memory immediately above
the emergency stack happens to be used for other stack allocations,
either another CPUs mc_emergency_sp or an IRQ stack. See the order of
calls to irqstack_early_init() and emergency_stack_init().

The low addresses of another stack are the top of that stack, and so are
only used if that stack is under extreme pressue, which essentially
never happens in practice - and if it did there's a high likelyhood we'd
crash due to that stack overflowing.

Still, we shouldn't be corrupting someone else's stack, and it is purely
luck that we aren't corrupting something else.

To fix it we save CR/LR into the caller's frame using the existing r1 on
entry, we then create a SWITCH_FRAME_SIZE frame (which has space for
pt_regs) on the emergency stack with the backchain pointing to the
existing stack, and then finally we switch to the new frame on the
emergency stack.

commit 73287caa9210ded6066833195f4335f7f688a46b upstream.

The idle entry/exit code saves/restores GPRs in the stack "red zone"
(Protected Zone according to PowerPC64 ELF ABI v2). However, the offset
used for the first GPR is incorrect and overwrites the back chain - the
Protected Zone actually starts below the current SP. In practice this is
probably not an issue, but it's still incorrect so fix it.

Also expand the comments to explain why using the stack "red zone"
instead of creating a new stackframe is appropriate here.

[ Upstream commit 4cce60f15c04d69eff6ffc539ab09137dbe15070 ]

Both arch/nios2/ and drivers/mmc/host/tmio_mmc.c define a macro
with the name "CTL_STATUS". Change the one in arch/nios2/ to be
"CTL_FSTATUS" (flags status) to eliminate the build warning.

In file included from ../drivers/mmc/host/tmio_mmc.c:22:
drivers/mmc/host/tmio_mmc.h:31: warning: "CTL_STATUS" redefined
   31 | #define CTL_STATUS 0x1c
arch/nios2/include/asm/registers.h:14: note: this is the location of the previous definition
   14 | #define CTL_STATUS      0

Fixes: b31ebd8055ea ("nios2: Nios2 registers")

[ Upstream commit 012e974501a270d8dfd4ee2039e1fdf7579c907e ]

Rebooting xtensa images loaded with the '-kernel' option in qemu does
not work. When executing a reboot command, the qemu session either hangs
or experiences an endless sequence of error messages.

  Kernel panic - not syncing: Unrecoverable error in exception handler

Reset code jumps to the CPU restart address, but Linux can not recover
from there because code and data in the kernel init sections have been
discarded and overwritten at this point.

XTFPGA platforms have a means to reset the CPU by writing 0xdead into a
specific FPGA IO address. When used in QEMU the kernel image loaded with
the '-kernel' option gets restored to its original state allowing the
machine to boot successfully.

Use that mechanism to attempt a platform reset. If it does not work,
fall back to the existing mechanism.

[ Upstream commit f3d7c2cdf6dc0d5402ec29c3673893b3542c5ad1 ]

Use platform data to initialize xtfpga device drivers when CONFIG_USE_OF
is not selected. This fixes xtfpga networking when CONFIG_USE_OF is not
selected but CONFIG_OF is.

[ Upstream commit 4348cc10da6377a86940beb20ad357933b8f91bb ]

Without a sensor node, the ISC will simply fail to probe, as the
corresponding port node is missing.
It is then logical to disable the node in the devicetree.
If we add a port with a connection to a sensor endpoint, ISC can be enabled.
