MIPS: CPS: Introduce struct cluster_boot_config

In preparation for supporting multi-cluster systems, introduce a struct
cluster_boot_config as an extra layer in the boot configuration
maintained by the MIPS Coherent Processing System (CPS) SMP
implementation. For now only one struct cluster_boot_config will be
allocated & we'll simply defererence its core_config field to find the
struct core_boot_config array which can be used to boot as usual.

MIPS: Export syscall stack arguments properly for remote use

We have several places across the kernel where we want to access another
task's syscall arguments, such as ptrace(2), seccomp(2), etc., by making
a call to syscall_get_arguments().

This works for register arguments right away by accessing the task's
`regs' member of `struct pt_regs', however for stack arguments seen with
32-bit/o32 kernels things are more complicated. Technically they ought
to be obtained from the user stack with calls to an access_remote_vm(),
but we have an easier way available already.

So as to be able to access syscall stack arguments as regular function
arguments following the MIPS calling convention we copy them over from
the user stack to the kernel stack in arch/mips/kernel/scall32-o32.S, in
handle_sys(), to the current stack frame's outgoing argument space at
the top of the stack, which is where the handler called expects to see
its incoming arguments. This area is also pointed at by the `pt_regs'
pointer obtained by task_pt_regs().

Make the o32 stack argument space a proper member of `struct pt_regs'
then, by renaming the existing member from `pad0' to `args' and using
generated offsets to access the space. No functional change though.

With the change in place the o32 kernel stack frame layout at the entry
to a syscall handler invoked by handle_sys() is therefore as follows:

$sp + 68 -> | ... | <- pt_regs.regs[9]
+---------------------+
$sp + 64 -> | $t0 | <- pt_regs.regs[8]
+---------------------+
$sp + 60 -> | $a3/argument #4 | <- pt_regs.regs[7]
+---------------------+
$sp + 56 -> | $a2/argument #3 | <- pt_regs.regs[6]
+---------------------+
$sp + 52 -> | $a1/argument #2 | <- pt_regs.regs[5]
+---------------------+
$sp + 48 -> | $a0/argument #1 | <- pt_regs.regs[4]
+---------------------+
$sp + 44 -> | $v1 | <- pt_regs.regs[3]
+---------------------+
$sp + 40 -> | $v0 | <- pt_regs.regs[2]
+---------------------+
$sp + 36 -> | $at | <- pt_regs.regs[1]
+---------------------+
$sp + 32 -> | $zero | <- pt_regs.regs[0]
+---------------------+
$sp + 28 -> | stack argument #8 | <- pt_regs.args[7]
+---------------------+
$sp + 24 -> | stack argument #7 | <- pt_regs.args[6]
+---------------------+
$sp + 20 -> | stack argument #6 | <- pt_regs.args[5]
+---------------------+
$sp + 16 -> | stack argument #5 | <- pt_regs.args[4]
+---------------------+
$sp + 12 -> | psABI space for $a3 | <- pt_regs.args[3]
+---------------------+
$sp + 8 -> | psABI space for $a2 | <- pt_regs.args[2]
+---------------------+
$sp + 4 -> | psABI space for $a1 | <- pt_regs.args[1]
+---------------------+
$sp + 0 -> | psABI space for $a0 | <- pt_regs.args[0]
+---------------------+

holding user data received and with the first 4 frame slots reserved by
the psABI for the compiler to spill the incoming arguments from $a0-$a3
registers (which it sometimes does according to its needs) and the next
4 frame slots designated by the psABI for any stack function arguments
that follow. This data is also available for other tasks to peek/poke
at as reqired and where permitted.

MIPS: scall: Save thread_info.syscall unconditionally on entry

thread_info.syscall is used by syscall_get_nr to supply syscall nr
over a thread stack frame.

Previously, thread_info.syscall is only saved at syscall_trace_enter
when syscall tracing is enabled. However rest of the kernel code do
expect syscall_get_nr to be available without syscall tracing. The
previous design breaks collect_syscall.

Move saving process to syscall entry to fix it.

Kbuild: rename CC_STACKPROTECTOR[_STRONG] config variables

The changes to automatically test for working stack protector compiler
support in the Kconfig files removed the special STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO
option that picked the strongest stack protector that the compiler
supported.

That was all a nice cleanup - it makes no sense to have the AUTO case
now that the Kconfig phase can just determine the compiler support
directly.

HOWEVER.

It also meant that doing "make oldconfig" would now _disable_ the strong
stackprotector if you had AUTO enabled, because in a legacy config file,
the sane stack protector configuration would look like

CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
# CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE is not set
# CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR is not set
# CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO=y

and when you ran this through "make oldconfig" with the Kbuild changes,
it would ask you about the regular CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR (that had
been renamed from CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR to just
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR), but it would think that the STRONG version
used to be disabled (because it was really enabled by AUTO), and would
disable it in the new config, resulting in:

CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
# CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set
CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y

That's dangerously subtle - people could suddenly find themselves with
the weaker stack protector setup without even realizing.

The solution here is to just rename not just the old RECULAR stack
protector option, but also the strong one. This does that by just
removing the CC_ prefix entirely for the user choices, because it really
is not about the compiler support (the compiler support now instead
automatially impacts _visibility_ of the options to users).

This results in "make oldconfig" actually asking the user for their
choice, so that we don't have any silent subtle security model changes.
The end result would generally look like this:

CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR=y
CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y
CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y

where the "CC_" versions really are about internal compiler
infrastructure, not the user selections.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

MIPS: IRQ Stack: Unwind IRQ stack onto task stack

When the separate IRQ stack was introduced, stack unwinding only
proceeded as far as the top of the IRQ stack, leading to kernel
backtraces being less useful, lacking the trace of what was interrupted.

Fix this by providing a means for the kernel to unwind the IRQ stack
onto the interrupted task stack. The processor state is saved to the
kernel task stack on interrupt. The IRQ_STACK_START macro reserves an
unsigned long at the top of the IRQ stack where the interrupted task
stack pointer can be saved. After the active stack is switched to the
IRQ stack, save the interrupted tasks stack pointer to the reserved
location.

Fix the stack unwinding code to look for the frame being the top of the
IRQ stack and if so get the next frame from the saved location. The
existing test does not work with the separate stack since the ra is no
longer pointed at ret_from_{irq,exception}.

The test to stop unwinding the stack 32 bytes from the top of a stack
must be modified to allow unwinding to continue up to the location of
the saved task stack pointer when on the IRQ stack. The low / high marks
of the stack are set depending on whether the sp is on an irq stack or
not.

MIPS: Remove r2_emul_return from struct thread_info

The r2_emul_return field in struct thread_info was used in order to take
an alternate codepath when returning to userland, which (besides not
implementing certain features) effectively used the eretnc instruction
in place of eret. The difference is that eretnc doesn't clear LLBit, and
therefore doesn't cause a linked load & store sequence to fail due to
emulation like eret would.

The reason eret would usually be used to clear LLBit is so that after
context switching we ensure that a load performed by one task doesn't
influence another task. However commit 7c151d3d5d7a ("MIPS: Make use of
the ERETNC instruction on MIPS R6") which introduced the r2_emul_return
field and conditional use of eretnc also for some reason began
explicitly clearing LLBit during context switches - despite retaining
the use of eret for everything but returns from the pre-r6 instruction
emulation code.

As LLBit is cleared upon context switches anyway, simplify this by using
eretnc unconditionally for MIPSr6 kernels. This allows us to remove the
4 byte r2_emul_return boolean from struct thread_info, simplify the
return to user code in entry.S and avoid the overhead of tracking &
checking state which we don't need.

MIPS: KVM: Restore host EBase from ebase variable

The host kernel's exception vector base address is currently saved in
the VCPU structure at creation time, and restored on a guest exit.
However it doesn't change and can already be easily accessed from the
'ebase' variable (arch/mips/kernel/traps.c), so drop the host_ebase
member of kvm_vcpu_arch, export the 'ebase' variable to modules and load
from there instead.

This does result in a single extra instruction (lui) on the guest exit
path, but simplifies the code a bit and removes the redundant storage of
the host exception base address.

Credit for the idea goes to Cavium's VZ KVM implementation.
