This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled parisc: Fix exception handler for fldw and fstw instructions to the 5.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: parisc-fix-exception-handler-for-fldw-and-fstw-instructions.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 7ae1f5508d9a33fd58ed3059bd2d569961e3b8bd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Helge Deller <deller@xxxxxx> Date: Sat, 20 Aug 2022 17:59:17 +0200 Subject: parisc: Fix exception handler for fldw and fstw instructions From: Helge Deller <deller@xxxxxx> commit 7ae1f5508d9a33fd58ed3059bd2d569961e3b8bd upstream. The exception handler is broken for unaligned memory acceses with fldw and fstw instructions, because it trashes or uses randomly some other floating point register than the one specified in the instruction word on loads and stores. The instruction "fldw 0(addr),%fr22L" (and the other fldw/fstw instructions) encode the target register (%fr22) in the rightmost 5 bits of the instruction word. The 7th rightmost bit of the instruction word defines if the left or right half of %fr22 should be used. While processing unaligned address accesses, the FR3() define is used to extract the offset into the local floating-point register set. But the calculation in FR3() was buggy, so that for example instead of %fr22, register %fr12 [((22 * 2) & 0x1f) = 12] was used. This bug has been since forever in the parisc kernel and I wonder why it wasn't detected earlier. Interestingly I noticed this bug just because the libime debian package failed to build on *native* hardware, while it successfully built in qemu. This patch corrects the bitshift and masking calculation in FR3().
