commit 510d86362a27577f5ee23f46cfb354ad49731e61 upstream.

The SAVE_SOME macro is used to save the execution context on all
exceptions.
If an exception occurs while executing user code, the stack is switched
to the kernel's stack for the current task, and register $28 is switched
to point to the current_thread_info, which is at the bottom of the stack
region.
If the exception occurs while executing kernel code, the stack is left,
and this change ensures that register $28 is not updated. This is the
correct behaviour when the kernel can be executing on the separate irq
stack, because the thread_info will not be at the base of it.

With this change, register $28 is only switched to it's kernel
conventional usage of the currrent thread info pointer at the point at
which execution enters kernel space. Doing it on every exception was
redundant, but OK without an IRQ stack, but will be erroneous once that
is introduced.

commit fe8bd18ffea5327344d4ec2bf11f47951212abd0 upstream.

Allocate a per-cpu irq stack for use within interrupt handlers.

Also add a utility function on_irq_stack to determine if a given stack
pointer is within the irq stack for that cpu.

<content type='text'>
commit 4b5347a24a0f2d3272032c120664b484478455de upstream.

When building for microMIPS we need to ensure that the assembler always
knows that there is code at the target of a branch or jump. Recent
toolchains will fail to link a microMIPS kernel when this isn't the case
due to what it thinks is a branch to non-microMIPS code.

mips-mti-linux-gnu-ld kernel/built-in.o: .spinlock.text+0x2fc: Unsupported branch between ISA modes.
mips-mti-linux-gnu-ld final link failed: Bad value

This is due to inline assembly labels in spinlock.h not being followed
by an instruction mnemonic, either due to a .subsection pseudo-op or the
end of the inline asm block.

Fix this with a .insn direction after such labels.

<title>MIPS: VDSO: avoid duplicate CAC_BASE definition</title>

commit 1742ac265046f34223e06d5d283496f0291be259 upstream.

vdso.h includes &lt;spaces.h&gt; implicitly after defining CONFIG_32BITS.
This defeats the override in mach-ip27/spaces.h, leading to
a build error that shows up in kernelci.org:

In file included from arch/mips/include/asm/mach-ip27/spaces.h:29:0,
                 from arch/mips/include/asm/page.h:12,
                 from arch/mips/vdso/vdso.h:26,
                 from arch/mips/vdso/gettimeofday.c:11:
arch/mips/include/asm/mach-generic/spaces.h:28:0: error: "CAC_BASE" redefined [-Werror]
 #define CAC_BASE  _AC(0x80000000, UL)

An earlier patch tried to make the second definition conditional,
but that patch had the #ifdef in the wrong place, and would lead
to another warning:

arch/mips/include/asm/io.h: In function 'phys_to_virt':
arch/mips/include/asm/io.h:138:9: error: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Werror=int-to-pointer-cast]

For all I can tell, there is no other reason than vdso32 to ever
include this file with CONFIG_32BITS set, and the vdso itself should
never refer to the base addresses as it is running in user space,
so adding an #ifdef here is safe.

commit 66fd848cadaa6be974a8c780fbeb328f0af4d3bd upstream.

For certain arguments such as saddr = 0xc0a8fd60, daddr = 0xc0a8fda1,
len = 80, proto = 17, sum = 0x7eae049d there will be a carry when
folding the intermediate 64 bit checksum to 32 bit but the code doesn't
add the carry back to the one's complement sum, thus an incorrect result
will be generated.

 "The tree got pretty big in this development cycle, but the net effect

    115 files changed, 673 insertions(+), 1522 deletions(-)

  The main changes were:

   - Rework and generalize the mutex code to remove per arch mutex
     primitives. (Peter Zijlstra)

   - Add vCPU preemption support: add an interface to query the
     preemption status of vCPUs and use it in locking primitives - this
     optimizes paravirt performance. (Pan Xinhui, Juergen Gross,
     Christian Borntraeger)

   - Introduce cpu_relax_yield() and remov cpu_relax_lowlatency() to
     clean up and improve the s390 lock yielding machinery and its core
     kernel impact. (Christian Borntraeger)

   - Micro-optimize mutexes some more. (Waiman Long)

   - Reluctantly add the to-be-deprecated mutex_trylock_recursive()
     interface on a temporary basis, to give the DRM code more time to
     get rid of its locking hacks. Any other users will be NAK-ed on
     sight. (We turned off the deprecation warning for the time being to
     not pollute the build log.) (Peter Zijlstra)

   - Improve the rtmutex code a bit, in light of recent long lived
     bugs/races. (Thomas Gleixner)

<content type='text'>
Couple conflicts resolved here:

1) In the MACB driver, a bug fix to properly initialize the
   RX tail pointer properly overlapped with some changes
   to support variable sized rings.

2) In XGBE we had a "CONFIG_PM" --&gt; "CONFIG_PM_SLEEP" fix
   overlapping with a reorganization of the driver to support
   ACPI, OF, as well as PCI variants of the chip.

3) In 'net' we had several probe error path bug fixes to the
   stmmac driver, meanwhile a lot of this code was cleaned up
   and reorganized in 'net-next'.

4) The cls_flower classifier obtained a helper function in
   'net-next' called __fl_delete() and this overlapped with
   Daniel Borkamann's bug fix to use RCU for object destruction
   in 'net'.  It also overlapped with Jiri's change to guard
   the rhashtable_remove_fast() call with a check against
   tc_skip_sw().

5) In mlx4, a revert bug fix in 'net' overlapped with some
   unrelated changes in 'net-next'.

6) In geneve, a stale header pointer after pskb_expand_head()
   bug fix in 'net' overlapped with a large reorganization of
   the same code in 'net-next'.  Since the 'net-next' code no
   longer had the bug in question, there was nothing to do
   other than to simply take the 'net-next' hunks.
