- Remove coding standard violations reported by checkpatch.pl - Delete comment about handling of conditional branches which is no longer true. - Delete comment at end of file which lists all ARM instructions. This duplicates data available in the ARM ARM and seems like an unnecessary maintenance burden to keep this up to date and accurate.

Being able to probe NOP instructions is useful for hard-coding probeable locations and is used by the kprobes test code. Signed-off-by: Jon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

The MOVW and MOVT instructions account for approximately 7% of all instructions in a ARMv7 kernel as GCC uses them instead of a literal pool. Signed-off-by: Jon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

The instruction decoding in space_cccc_000x needs to reject probing of instructions with undefined patterns as they may in future become defined and then emulated faultily - as has already happened with the SMC instruction. This fix is achieved by testing for the instruction patterns we want to probe and making the the default fall-through paths reject probes. This also allows us to remove some explicit tests for instructions that we wish to reject, as that is now the default action.

The tests to explicitly reject probing CPS, RFE and SRS instructions are redundant as the default case is now to reject undecoded patterns. Signed-off-by: Jon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

The PLD instructions wasn't being decoded correctly and the emulation code wasn't adjusting PC correctly. As the PLD instruction is only a performance hint we emulate it as a simple nop, and we can broaden the instruction decoding to take into account newer PLI and PLDW instructions.

The emulation of SETEND was broken as it changed the endianess for the running kprobes handling code. Rather than adding a new simulation routine to fix this we'll just reject probing of SETEND as these should be very rare in the kernel. Note, the function emulate_none is now unused but it is left in the source code as future patches will use it.

Following the change to remove support for coprocessor instructions we are left with three stub functions which can be consolidated. Signed-off-by: Jon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

Jon Medhurst authored
The kernel doesn't currently support VFP or Neon code, and probing of code with CP15 operations is fraught with bad consequences. Therefore we don't need the ability to probe coprocessor instructions and the code to support this can be removed. The removed code also had at least two bugs: - MRC into R15 should set CPSR not trash PC - LDC and STC which use PC as base register needed the address offset by 8 Signed-off-by: Jon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

The USAD8 instruction wasn't being explicitly decoded leading to the incorrect emulation routine being called. It can be correctly decoded in the same way as the signed multiply instructions so we move the decoding there.

These sign extension instructions are encoded as extend-and-add instructions where the register to add is specified as r15. The decoding routines weren't checking for this and were using the incorrect emulation code, giving incorrect results.

The instructions space for media instructions contains some undefined patterns.

Jon Medhurst authored
The decoding of these instructions got the register indexed and immediate indexed forms the wrong way around, causing incorrect emulation. Instructions like "LDRD Rx, [Rx]" were corrupting Rx because the base register writeback was being performed unconditionally, overwriting the value just loaded from memory. The fix is to only writeback the base register when that form of the instruction is used. Note, now that we reject probing writeback with PC the emulation code doesn't need the check rn!=15.

Using PC as an base register with writeback is UNPREDICTABLE, as is non word-sized loads or stores of PC. (We only really care about preventing loads to PC but it keeps the code simpler if we also exclude stores.)

The emulation code for STREX and LDREX instructions is faulty, however, rather than attempting to fix this we reject probes of these instructions. We do this because they can never succeed in gaining exclusive access as the exception framework clears the exclusivity monitor when a probes breakpoint is hit. (This is a general problem when probing all instructions executing between a LDREX and its corresponding STREX and can lead to infinite retry loops.)

The instructions space for 'Multiply and multiply-accumulate' instructions contains some undefined patterns. We need to reject probing of these because they may in future become defined and the kprobes code may then emulate them faultily. This has already happened with the new MLS instruction which this patch also adds correct decoding for as well as tightening up other decoding tests. (Before this patch the wrong emulation routine was being called for MLS though it still produced correct results.)

The MRS instruction should set mode and interrupt bits in the read value so it is simpler to use a new simulation routine (simulate_mrs) rather than some modified emulation. prep_emulate_rd12 is now unused and removed.

We need to reject probing of instructions which read SPSR because we can't handle this as the value in SPSR is lost when the exception handler for the probe breakpoint first runs. This patch also fixes the bitmask for MRS instructions decoding to include checking bits 5-7. Signed-off-by: Jon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

When a kprobe is placed onto conditionally executed ARM instructions, many of the emulation routines used to single step them produce corrupt register results. Rather than fix all of these cases we modify the framework which calls them to test the relevant condition flags and, if the test fails, skip calling the emulation code.

Currently emulate_ldrd and emulate_strd don't even have the adjustment of the PC value, so in case of Rn == PC, it will not update the PC incorrectly but instead load/store from the wrong address. Let's add both the adjustment of the PC value and the check for PC == PC. Signed-off-by: Viktor Rosendahl <viktor.rosendahl@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

The ARM user backtrace code can get into an infinite loop if it runs into an invalid stack frame which points back to itself. This situation has been observed in practice. Fix it by capping the number of entries in the backtrace. This is also what other architectures do in their backtrace code.

Several Davinci platforms select the I2C EEPROM support, but don't select I2C support. This causes I2C EEPROM support to be built into the kernel, but I2C support may not be configured to be built in. This leads to linker errors due to missing I2C symbols. Arrange for I2C to be selected whenever EEPROM_AT24 is selected. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Sekhar Nori <nsekhar@ti.com>

Commit 54ce6883 (davinci: da8xx: add spi resources and registration routine) wrongly assumed that SPI1 is mapped at the same address on DA830/OMAP-L137 and DA850/OMAP-L138; actually, the base address was valid only for the latter SoC. Teach the code to pass the correct SPI1 memory resource for both SoCs... Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Sekhar Nori <nsekhar@ti.com>
