Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.
Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.
GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.
Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format
is:
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)
SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

The context introduced by MSA needs to be saved around signals. However,
we can't increase the size of struct sigcontext because that will change
the offset of the signal mask in struct sigframe or struct ucontext.
This patch instead places the new context immediately after the struct
sigframe for traditional signals, or similarly after struct ucontext for
RT signals. The layout of struct sigframe & struct ucontext is identical
from their sigcontext fields onwards, so the offset from the sigcontext
to the extended context will always be the same regardless of the type
of signal.
Userland will be able to search through the extended context by using
the magic values to detect which types of context are present. Any
unrecognised context can be skipped over using the size field of struct
extcontext. Once the magic value END_EXTCONTEXT_MAGIC is seen it is
known that there are no further extended context structures to examine.
This approach is somewhat similar to that taken by ARM to save VFP &
other context at the end of struct ucontext.
Userland can determine whether extended context is present by checking
for the USED_EXTCONTEXT bit in the sc_used_math field of struct
sigcontext. Whilst this could potentially change the historic semantics
of sc_used_math if further extended context which does not imply FP
context were to be introduced in the future, I have been unable to find
any userland code making use of sc_used_math at all. Using one of the
fields described as unused in struct sigcontext was considered, but the
kernel does not already write to those fields so there would be no
guarantee of the field being clear on older kernels. Other alternatives
would be to have userland check the kernel version, or to have a HWCAP
bit indicating presence of extended context. However there is a desire
to have the context & information required to decode it be self
contained such that, for example, debuggers could decode the saved
context easily.

The sc_used_math field of struct sigcontext & its variants has
traditionally been used as a boolean value indicating only whether or
not floating point context is saved within the sigcontext. With various
supported FP modes & the ability to switch between them this information
will no longer be enough to decode the meaning of the data stored in the
sc_fpregs fields of struct sigcontext.
To make that possible 3 bits are defined within sc_used_math:
- Bit 0 (USED_FP) represents whether FP was used, essentially
providing the boolean flag which sc_used_math as a whole provided
previously.
- Bit 1 (USED_FR1) provides the value of the Status.FR bit at the time
the FP context was saved.
- Bit 2 (USED_HYBRID_FPRS) indicates whether the FP context was saved
under the hybrid FPR scheme. Essentially, when set the odd singles
are located in bits 63:32 of the preceding even indexed sc_fpregs
element.
Any userland that tests whether the sc_used_math field is zero or
non-zero will continue to function as expected. Having said that, I
could not find any userland which uses the sc_used_math field at all.

This reverts commit eec43a224c "MIPS: Save/restore MSA context around
signals" and the MSA parts of ca750649e0 "MIPS: kernel: signal:
Prevent save/restore FPU context in user memory" (the restore path of
which appears incorrect anyway...).
The reverted patch took care not to break compatibility with userland
users of struct sigcontext, but inadvertantly changed the offset of the
uc_sigmask field of struct ucontext. Thus Linux v3.15 breaks the
userland ABI. The MSA context will need to be saved via some other
opt-in mechanism, but for now revert the change to reduce the fallout.
This will have minimal impact upon use of MSA since the only supported
CPU which includes it (the P5600) is 32-bit and therefore requires that
the experimental CONFIG_MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT Kconfig option be selected
before the kernel will set FR=1 for a task, a requirement for MSA use.
Thus the users of MSA are limited to known small groups of people & this
patch won't be breaking any previously working MSA-using userland
outside of experimental settings.

This patch extends sigcontext in order to hold the most significant 64
bits of each vector register in addition to the MSA control & status
register. The least significant 64 bits are already saved as the scalar
FP context. This makes things a little awkward since the least & most
significant 64 bits of each vector register are not contiguous in
memory. Thus the copy_u & insert instructions are used to transfer the
values of the most significant 64 bits via GP registers.
