Add support for hibernate/suspend-to-disk. Suspend borrows code from cpu_suspend() to write cpu state onto the stack, before calling swsusp_save() to save the memory image. Restore creates a set of temporary page tables, covering only the linear map, copies the restore code to a 'safe' page, then uses the copy to restore the memory image. The copied code executes in the lower half of the address space, and once complete, restores the original kernel's page tables. It then calls into cpu_resume(), and follows the normal cpu_suspend() path back into the suspend code. To restore a kernel using KASLR, the address of the page tables, and cpu_resume() are stored in the hibernate arch-header and the el2 vectors are pivotted via the 'safe' page in low memory.

This adds support for KASLR is implemented, based on entropy provided by the bootloader in the /chosen/kaslr-seed DT property. Depending on the size of the address space (VA_BITS) and the page size, the entropy in the virtual displacement is up to 13 bits (16k/2 levels) and up to 25 bits (all 4 levels), with the sidenote that displacements that result in the kernel image straddling a 1GB/32MB/512MB alignment boundary (for 4KB/16KB/64KB granule kernels, respectively) are not allowed, and will be rounded up to an acceptable value. If CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL is enabled, the module region is randomized independently from the core kernel. This makes it less likely that the location of core kernel data structures can be determined by an adversary, but causes all function calls from modules into the core kernel to be resolved via entries in the module PLTs. If CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL is not enabled, the module region is randomized by choosing a page aligned 128 MB region inside the interval [_etext - 128 MB, _stext + 128 MB). This gives between 10 and 14 bits of entropy (depending on page size), independently of the kernel randomization, but still guarantees that modules are within the range of relative branch and jump instructions (with the caveat that, since the module region is shared with other uses of the vmalloc area, modules may need to be loaded further away if the module region is exhausted) Signed-off-by: NArd Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NCatalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This adds support for emitting PLTs at module load time for relative branches that are out of range. This is a prerequisite for KASLR, which may place the kernel and the modules anywhere in the vmalloc area, making it more likely that branch target offsets exceed the maximum range of +/- 128 MB. In this version, I removed the distinction between relocations against .init executable sections and ordinary executable sections. The reason is that it is hardly worth the trouble, given that .init.text usually does not contain that many far branches, and this version now only reserves PLT entry space for jump and call relocations against undefined symbols (since symbols defined in the same module can be assumed to be within +/- 128 MB) For example, the mac80211.ko module (which is fairly sizable at ~400 KB) built with -mcmodel=large gives the following relocation counts: relocs branches unique !local .text 3925 3347 518 219 .init.text 11 8 7 1 .exit.text 4 4 4 1 .text.unlikely 81 67 36 17 ('unique' means branches to unique type/symbol/addend combos, of which !local is the subset referring to undefined symbols) IOW, we are only emitting a single PLT entry for the .init sections, and we are better off just adding it to the core PLT section instead.

The SBBR and ACPI specifications allow ACPI based systems that do not implement PSCI (eg systems with no EL3) to boot through the ACPI parking protocol specification[1]. This patch implements the ACPI parking protocol CPU operations, and adds code that eases parsing the parking protocol data structures to the ARM64 SMP initializion carried out at the same time as cpus enumeration. To wake-up the CPUs from the parked state, this patch implements a wakeup IPI for ARM64 (ie arch_send_wakeup_ipi_mask()) that mirrors the ARM one, so that a specific IPI is sent for wake-up purpose in order to distinguish it from other IPI sources. Given the current ACPI MADT parsing API, the patch implements a glue layer that helps passing MADT GICC data structure from SMP initialization code to the parking protocol implementation somewhat overriding the CPU operations interfaces. This to avoid creating a completely trasparent DT/ACPI CPU operations layer that would require creating opaque structure handling for CPUs data (DT represents CPU through DT nodes, ACPI through static MADT table entries), which seems overkill given that ACPI on ARM64 mandates only two booting protocols (PSCI and parking protocol), so there is no need for further protocol additions.

This patch adds arch specific code for kernel address sanitizer (see Documentation/kasan.txt). 1/8 of kernel addresses reserved for shadow memory. There was no big enough hole for this, so virtual addresses for shadow were stolen from vmalloc area. At early boot stage the whole shadow region populated with just one physical page (kasan_zero_page). Later, this page reused as readonly zero shadow for some memory that KASan currently don't track (vmalloc). After mapping the physical memory, pages for shadow memory are allocated and mapped. Functions like memset/memmove/memcpy do a lot of memory accesses. If bad pointer passed to one of these function it is important to catch this. Compiler's instrumentation cannot do this since these functions are written in assembly. KASan replaces memory functions with manually instrumented variants. Original functions declared as weak symbols so strong definitions in mm/kasan/kasan.c could replace them. Original functions have aliases with '__' prefix in name, so we could call non-instrumented variant if needed. Some files built without kasan instrumentation (e.g. mm/slub.c). Original mem* function replaced (via #define) with prefixed variants to disable memory access checks for such files.

Since arm64 does not use a builtin decompressor, the EFI stub is built into the kernel proper. So far, this has been working fine, but actually, since the stub is in fact a PE/COFF relocatable binary that is executed at an unknown offset in the 1:1 mapping provided by the UEFI firmware, we should not be seamlessly sharing code with the kernel proper, which is a position dependent executable linked at a high virtual offset. So instead, separate the contents of libstub and its dependencies, by putting them into their own namespace by prefixing all of its symbols with __efistub. This way, we have tight control over what parts of the kernel proper are referenced by the stub.

As we want to get ACPI tables to parse and then use the information for system initialization, we should get the RSDP (Root System Description Pointer) first, it then locates Extended Root Description Table (XSDT) which contains all the 64-bit physical address that pointer to other boot-time tables. Introduce acpi.c and its related head file in this patch to provide fundamental needs of extern variables and functions for ACPI core, and then get boot-time tables as needed. - asm/acenv.h for arch specific ACPICA environments and implementation, It is needed unconditionally by ACPI core; - asm/acpi.h for arch specific variables and functions needed by ACPI driver core; - acpi.c for ARM64 related ACPI implementation for ACPI driver core; acpi_boot_table_init() is introduced to get RSDP and boot-time tables, it will be called in setup_arch() before paging_init(), so we should use eary_memremap() mechanism here to get the RSDP and all the table pointers. FADT Major.Minor version was introduced in ACPI 5.1, it is the same as ACPI version. In ACPI 5.1, some major gaps are fixed for ARM, such as updates in MADT table for GIC and SMP init, without those updates, we can not get the MPIDR for SMP init, and GICv2/3 related init information, so we can't boot arm64 ACPI properly with table versions predating 5.1. If firmware provides ACPI tables with ACPI version less than 5.1, OS has no way to retrieve the configuration data that is necessary to init SMP boot protocol and the GIC properly, so disable ACPI if we get an FADT table with version less that 5.1 when acpi_boot_table_init() called.

ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND config option was introduced to make code providing context save/restore selectable only on platforms requiring power management capabilities. Currently ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND depends on the PM_SLEEP config option which in turn is set by the SUSPEND config option. The introduction of CPU_IDLE for arm64 requires that code configured by ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND (context save/restore) should be compiled in in order to enable the CPU idle driver to rely on CPU operations carrying out context save/restore. The ARM64_CPUIDLE config option (ARM64 generic idle driver) is therefore forced to select ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND, even if there may be (ie PM_SLEEP) failed dependencies, which is not a clean way of handling the kernel configuration option. For these reasons, this patch removes the ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND config option and makes the context save/restore dependent on CPU_PM, which is selected whenever either SUSPEND or CPU_IDLE are configured, cleaning up dependencies in the process. This way, code previously configured through ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND is compiled in whenever a power management subsystem requires it to be present in the kernel (SUSPEND || CPU_IDLE), which is the behaviour expected on ARM64 kernels. The cpu_suspend and cpu_init_idle CPU operations are added only if CPU_IDLE is selected, since they are CPU_IDLE specific methods and should be grouped and defined accordingly. PSCI CPU operations are updated to reflect the introduced changes.

Typically, providing support for legacy instructions requires emulating the behaviour of instructions whose encodings have become undefined. If the instructions haven't been removed from the architecture, there maybe an option in the implementation to turn on/off the support for these instructions. Create common infrastructure to support legacy instruction emulation. In addition to emulation, also provide an option to support hardware execution when supported. The default execution mode (one of undef, emulate, hw exeuction) is dependent on the state of the instruction (deprecated or obsolete) in the architecture and can specified at the time of registering the instruction handlers. The runtime state of the emulation can be controlled by writing to individual nodes in sysctl. The expected default behaviour is documented as part of this patch.

This patch implements arm64 specific part to support function tracers, such as function (CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER), function_graph (CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER) and function profiler (CONFIG_FUNCTION_PROFILER). With 'function' tracer, all the functions in the kernel are traced with timestamps in ${sysfs}/tracing/trace. If function_graph tracer is specified, call graph is generated. The kernel must be compiled with -pg option so that _mcount() is inserted at the beginning of functions. This function is called on every function's entry as long as tracing is enabled. In addition, function_graph tracer also needs to be able to probe function's exit. ftrace_graph_caller() & return_to_handler do this by faking link register's value to intercept function's return path. More details on architecture specific requirements are described in Documentation/trace/ftrace-design.txt.

This patch adds PE/COFF header fields to the start of the kernel Image so that it appears as an EFI application to UEFI firmware. An EFI stub is included to allow direct booting of the kernel Image.

This patch adds EFI runtime support for arm64. This runtime support allows the kernel to access various EFI runtime services provided by EFI firmware. Things like reboot, real time clock, EFI boot variables, and others. This functionality is supported for little endian kernels only. The UEFI firmware standard specifies that the firmware be little endian. A future patch is expected to add support for big endian kernels running with little endian firmware.

This patch implements the functions required for the perf registers API, allowing the perf tool to interface kernel register dumps with libunwind in order to provide userspace backtracing. Compat mode is also supported. Only the general purpose user space registers are exported, i.e.: PERF_REG_ARM_X0, ... PERF_REG_ARM_X28, PERF_REG_ARM_FP, PERF_REG_ARM_LR, PERF_REG_ARM_SP, PERF_REG_ARM_PC and not the PERF_REG_ARM_V* registers.

Add basic CPU topology support to arm64, based on the existing pre-v8 code and some work done by Mark Hambleton. This patch does not implement any topology discovery support since that should be based on information from firmware, it merely implements the scaffolding for integration of topology support in the architecture. No locking of the topology data is done since it is only modified during CPU bringup with external serialisation from the SMP code. The goal is to separate the architecture hookup for providing topology information from the DT parsing in order to ease review and avoid blocking the architecture code (which will be built on by other work) with the DT code review by providing something simple and basic. Following patches will implement support for interpreting topology information from MPIDR and for parsing the DT topology bindings for ARM, similar patches will be needed for ACPI.
