Current MIPS64r6 toolchains aren't able to generate efficient
DMULU/DMUHU based code for the C implementation of umul_ppmm(), which
performs an unsigned 64 x 64 bit multiply and returns the upper and
lower 64-bit halves of the 128-bit result. Instead it widens the 64-bit
inputs to 128-bits and emits a __multi3 intrinsic call to perform a 128
x 128 multiply. This is both inefficient, and it results in a link error
since we don't include __multi3 in MIPS linux.
For example commit 90a53e4432b1 ("cfg80211: implement regdb signature
checking") merged in v4.15-rc1 recently broke the 64r6_defconfig and
64r6el_defconfig builds by indirectly selecting MPILIB. The same build
errors can be reproduced on older kernels by enabling e.g. CRYPTO_RSA:
lib/mpi/generic_mpih-mul1.o: In function `mpihelp_mul_1':
lib/mpi/generic_mpih-mul1.c:50: undefined reference to `__multi3'
lib/mpi/generic_mpih-mul2.o: In function `mpihelp_addmul_1':
lib/mpi/generic_mpih-mul2.c:49: undefined reference to `__multi3'
lib/mpi/generic_mpih-mul3.o: In function `mpihelp_submul_1':
lib/mpi/generic_mpih-mul3.c:49: undefined reference to `__multi3'
lib/mpi/mpih-div.o In function `mpihelp_divrem':
lib/mpi/mpih-div.c:205: undefined reference to `__multi3'
lib/mpi/mpih-div.c:142: undefined reference to `__multi3'
Therefore add an efficient MIPS64r6 implementation of umul_ppmm() using
inline assembly and the DMULU/DMUHU instructions, to prevent __multi3
calls being emitted.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
