2011-07-09ARM: vfp: ensure that thread flushing works if preemptedRussell King
Prevent a preemption event causing the initialized VFP state being overwritten by ensuring that the VFP hardware access is disabled prior to starting initialization. We can then do this in safety while still allowing preemption to occur. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2011-07-09ARM: vfp: fix a hole in VFP thread migrationRussell King
Fix a hole in the VFP thread migration. Lets define two threads. Thread 1, we'll call 'interesting_thread' which is a thread which is running on CPU0, using VFP (so vfp_current_hw_state[0] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate) and gets migrated off to CPU1, where it continues execution of VFP instructions. Thread 2, we'll call 'new_cpu0_thread' which is the thread which takes over on CPU0. This has also been using VFP, and last used VFP on CPU0, but doesn't use it again. The following code will be executed twice: cpu = thread->cpu; /* * On SMP, if VFP is enabled, save the old state in * case the thread migrates to a different CPU. The * restoring is done lazily. */ if ((fpexc & FPEXC_EN) && vfp_current_hw_state[cpu]) { vfp_save_state(vfp_current_hw_state[cpu], fpexc); vfp_current_hw_state[cpu]->hard.cpu = cpu; } /* * Thread migration, just force the reloading of the * state on the new CPU in case the VFP registers * contain stale data. */ if (thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu != cpu) vfp_current_hw_state[cpu] = NULL; The first execution will be on CPU0 to switch away from 'interesting_thread'. interesting_thread->cpu will be 0. So, vfp_current_hw_state[0] points at interesting_thread->vfpstate. The hardware state will be saved, along with the CPU number (0) that it was executing on. 'thread' will be 'new_cpu0_thread' with new_cpu0_thread->cpu = 0. Also, because it was executing on CPU0, new_cpu0_thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu = 0, and so the thread migration check is not triggered. This means that vfp_current_hw_state[0] remains pointing at interesting_thread. The second execution will be on CPU1 to switch _to_ 'interesting_thread'. So, 'thread' will be 'interesting_thread' and interesting_thread->cpu now will be 1. The previous thread executing on CPU1 is not relevant to this so we shall ignore that. We get to the thread migration check. Here, we discover that interesting_thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu = 0, yet interesting_thread->cpu is now 1, indicating thread migration. We set vfp_current_hw_state[1] to NULL. So, at this point vfp_current_hw_state[] contains the following: [0] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate [1] = NULL Our interesting thread now executes a VFP instruction, takes a fault which loads the state into the VFP hardware. Now, through the assembly we now have: [0] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate [1] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate CPU1 stops due to ptrace (and so saves its VFP state) using the thread switch code above), and CPU0 calls vfp_sync_hwstate(). if (vfp_current_hw_state[cpu] == &thread->vfpstate) { vfp_save_state(&thread->vfpstate, fpexc | FPEXC_EN); BANG, we corrupt interesting_thread's VFP state by overwriting the more up-to-date state saved by CPU1 with the old VFP state from CPU0. Fix this by ensuring that we have sane semantics for the various state describing variables: 1. vfp_current_hw_state[] points to the current owner of the context information stored in each CPUs hardware, or NULL if that state information is invalid. 2. thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu always contains the most recent CPU number which the state was loaded into or NR_CPUS if no CPU owns the state. So, for a particular CPU to be a valid owner of the VFP state for a particular thread t, two things must be true: vfp_current_hw_state[cpu] == &t->vfpstate && t->vfpstate.hard.cpu == cpu. and that is valid from the moment a CPU loads the saved VFP context into the hardware. This gives clear and consistent semantics to interpreting these variables. This patch also fixes thread copying, ensuring that t->vfpstate.hard.cpu is invalidated, otherwise CPU0 may believe it was the last owner. The hole can happen thus: - thread1 runs on CPU2 using VFP, migrates to CPU3, exits and thread_info freed. - New thread allocated from a previously running thread on CPU2, reusing memory for thread1 and copying vfp.hard.cpu. At this point, the following are true: new_thread1->vfpstate.hard.cpu == 2 &new_thread1->vfpstate == vfp_current_hw_state[2] Lastly, this also addresses thread flushing in a similar way to thread copying. Hole is: - thread runs on CPU0, using VFP, migrates to CPU1 but does not use VFP. - thread calls execve(), so thread flush happens, leaving vfp_current_hw_state[0] intact. This vfpstate is memset to 0 causing thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu = 0. - thread migrates back to CPU0 before using VFP. At this point, the following are true: thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu == 0 &thread->vfpstate == vfp_current_hw_state[0] Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2011-07-07ARM: vfp: add VFPv4 capability detection and populate elf_hwcapWill Deacon

2010-11-30ARM: 6498/1: vfp: Correct data alignment for CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNELDave Martin
Directives such as .long and .word do not magically cause the assembler location counter to become aligned in gas. As a result, using these directives in code sections can result in misaligned data words when building a Thumb-2 kernel (CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL). This is a Bad Thing, since the ABI permits the compiler to assume that fundamental types of word size or above are word- aligned when accessing them from C. If the data is not really word-aligned, this can cause impaired performance and stray alignment faults in some circumstances. In general, the following rules should be applied when using data word declaration directives inside code sections: * .quad and .double: .align 3 * .long, .word, .single, .float: .align (or .align 2) * .short: No explicit alignment required, since Thumb-2 instructions are always 2 or 4 bytes in size. immediately after an instruction.

2010-02-15ARM: vfp: fix vfp_sync_state()Russell King
The more I look at vfp_sync_state(), the more I believe it's trying to do its job in a really obscure way. Essentially, last_VFP_context[] tracks who owns the state in the VFP hardware. If last_VFP_context[] is the context for the thread which we're interested in, then the VFP hardware has context which is not saved in the software state - so we need to bring the software state up to date. If last_VFP_context[] is for some other thread, we really don't care what state the VFP hardware is in; it doesn't contain any information pertinent to the thread we're trying to deal with - so don't touch the hardware.

2009-12-13ARM: VFP: fix vfp thread init bug and document vfp notifier entry conditionsRussell King
When the VFP notifier is called for flush_thread(), we may be preemptible, meaning we might migrate to another CPU, which means referencing the current CPU number without some form of locking is invalid, and can cause data corruption. For the most cases, this isn't a problem since atomic notifiers are run under rcu lock, which for most configurations results in preemption being disabled - except when the preemptable tree-based rcu implementation is selected. Let's make it safe anyway. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2009-05-30Fix the VFP handling on the Feroceon CPUCatalin Marinas
This CPU generates synchronous VFP exceptions in a non-standard way - the FPEXC.EX bit set but without the FPSCR.IXE bit being set like in the VFP subarchitecture 1 or just the FPEXC.DEX bit like in VFP subarchitecture 2. The main problem is that the faulty instruction (which needs to be emulated in software) will be restarted several times (normally until a context switch disables the VFP). This patch ensures that the VFP exception is treated as synchronous. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org>
2009-04-01[ARM] 5440/1: Fix VFP state corruption due to preemption during VFP exceptionsGeorge G. Davis
We've observed that ARM VFP state can be corrupted during VFP exception handling when PREEMPT is enabled. The exact conditions are difficult to reproduce but appear to occur during VFP exception handling when a task causes a VFP exception which is handled via VFP_bounce and is then preempted by yet another task which in turn causes yet another VFP exception. Since the VFP_bounce code is not preempt safe, VFP state then becomes corrupt. In order to prevent preemption from occuring while handling a VFP exception, this patch disables preemption while handling VFP exceptions. Signed-off-by: George G.

2008-12-18[ARM] 5349/1: VFP: Add PM code to save and restore current VFP stateBen Dooks
When CONFIG_PM is selected, the VFP code does not have any handler installed to deal with either saving the VFP state of the current task, nor does it do anything to try and restore the VFP after a resume. On resume, the VFP will have been reset and the co-processor access control registers are in an indeterminate state (very probably the CP10 and CP11 the VFP uses will have been disabled by the ARM core reset). When this happens, resume will break as soon as it tries to unfreeze the tasks and restart scheduling. Add a sys device to allow us to hook the suspend call to save the current thread state if the thread is using VFP and a resume hook which restores the CP10/CP11 access and ensures the VFP is disabled so that the lazy swapping will take place on next access.

2008-01-26[ARM] 4582/2: Add support for the common VFP subarchitectureCatalin Marinas
This patch allows the VFP support code to run correctly on CPUs compatible with the common VFP subarchitecture specification (Appendix B in the ARM ARM v7-A and v7-R edition). It implements support for VFP subarchitecture 2 while being backwards compatible with subarchitecture 1. On VFP subarchitecture 1, the arithmetic exceptions are asynchronous (or imprecise as described in the old ARM ARM) unless the FPSCR.IXE bit is 1. The exceptional instructions can be read from FPINST and FPINST2 registers. With VFP subarchitecture 2, the arithmetic exceptions can also be synchronous and marked by the FPEXC.DEX bit (the FPEXC.EX bit is cleared). CPUs implementing the synchronous arithmetic exceptions don't have the FPINST and FPINST2 registers and accessing them would trigger and undefined exception. Note that FPEXC.EX bit has an additional meaning on subarchitecture 1 - if it isn't set, there is no additional information in FPINST and FPINST2 that needs to be saved at context switch or when lazy-loading the VFP state of a different thread. The patch also removes the clearing of the cumulative exception flags in FPSCR when additional exceptions were raised. It is up to the user application to clear these bits.

2007-06-10[ARM] VFP: fix section mismatch errorRussell King
Fix a real section mismatch issue; the test code is thrown away after initialisation, but if we do not detect the VFP hardware, it is left hooked into the exception handler. Any VFP instructions which are subsequently executed risk calling the discarded exception handler. Introduce a new "null" handler which returns to the "unrecognised fault" return address.

2007-01-25[ARM] 4111/1: Allow VFP to work with thread migration on SMPCatalin Marinas
The current lazy saving of the VFP registers is no longer possible with thread migration on SMP. This patch implements a per-CPU vfp-state pointer and the saving of the VFP registers at every context switch. The registers restoring is still performed in a lazy way.

2007-01-02[ARM] Fix VFP initialisation issue for SMP systemsRussell King
When we install the handlers for context switching, we must enable VFP on all CPU cores, otherwise undefined (and random) effects occur. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-12-08[ARM] Handle HWCAP_VFP in VFP support codeRussell King
Don't set HWCAP_VFP in the processor support file; not only does it depend on the processor features, but it also depends on the support code being present. Therefore, only set it if the support code detects that we have a VFP coprocessor attached. Also, move the VFP handling of the coprocessor access register into the VFP support code.
