commit 531936dee53e471a3ec668de3c94ca357f54b7e8 upstream.
The maximum number of load/store watchpoints and fetch instruction
watchpoints is 14 each according to LoongArch Reference Manual, so
extend the maximum number of watchpoints from 8 to 14 for ptrace.
By the way, just simply change 8 to 14 for the definition in struct
user_watch_state at the beginning, but it may corrupt uapi, then add
a new struct user_watch_state_v2 directly.
As far as I can tell, the only users for this struct in the userspace
are GDB and LLDB, there are no any problems of software compatibility
between the application and kernel according to the analysis.
The compatibility problem has been considered while developing and
testing. When the applications in the userspace get watchpoint state,
the length will be specified which is no bigger than the sizeof struct
user_watch_state or user_watch_state_v2, the actual length is assigned
as the minimal value of the application and kernel in the generic code
of ptrace:
kernel/ptrace.c: ptrace_regset():
kiov->iov_len = min(kiov->iov_len,
(__kernel_size_t) (regset->n * regset->size));
if (req == PTRACE_GETREGSET)
return copy_regset_to_user(task, view, regset_no, 0,
kiov->iov_len, kiov->iov_base);
else
return copy_regset_from_user(task, view, regset_no, 0,
kiov->iov_len, kiov->iov_base);
For example, there are four kind of combinations, all of them work well.
(1) "older kernel + older gdb", the actual length is 8+(8+8+4+4)*8=200;
(2) "newer kernel + newer gdb", the actual length is 8+(8+8+4+4)*14=344;
(3) "older kernel + newer gdb", the actual length is 8+(8+8+4+4)*8=200;
(4) "newer kernel + older gdb", the actual length is 8+(8+8+4+4)*8=200.

Loongson Binary Translation (LBT) is used to accelerate binary translation,
which contains 4 scratch registers (scr0 to scr3), x86/ARM eflags (eflags)
and x87 fpu stack pointer (ftop).
This patch support kernel to save/restore these registers, handle the LBT
exception and maintain sigcontext.

Add LoongArch's vector extensions support, which including 128bit LSX
(i.e., Loongson SIMD eXtension) and 256bit LASX (i.e., Loongson Advanced
SIMD eXtension).
Linux kernel doesn't use vector itself, it only handle exceptions and
context save/restore. So it only needs a subset of these instructions:
* Vector load/store: vld vst vldx vstx xvld xvst xvldx xvstx
* 8bit-elements move: vpickve2gr.b xvpickve2gr.b vinsgr2vr.b xvinsgr2vr.b
* 16bit-elements move: vpickve2gr.h xvpickve2gr.h vinsgr2vr.h xvinsgr2vr.h
* 32bit-elements move: vpickve2gr.w xvpickve2gr.w vinsgr2vr.w xvinsgr2vr.w
* 64bit-elements move: vpickve2gr.d xvpickve2gr.d vinsgr2vr.d xvinsgr2vr.d
* Elements permute: vpermi.w vpermi.d xvpermi.w xvpermi.d xvpermi.q
Introduce AS_HAS_LSX_EXTENSION and AS_HAS_LASX_EXTENSION to avoid non-
vector toolchains complains unsupported instructions.
