This patch adds support for cacheinfo on ARM64. On ARMv8, the cache hierarchy can be identified through Cache Level ID (CLIDR) register while the cache geometry is provided by Cache Size ID (CCSIDR) register. Since the architecture doesn't provide any way of detecting the cpus sharing particular cache, device tree is used for the same purpose.

In order to support kexec, the kernel needs to be able to deal with the state of the UEFI firmware after SetVirtualAddressMap() has been called. To avoid having separate code paths for non-kexec and kexec, let's move the call to SetVirtualAddressMap() to the stub: this will guarantee us that it will only be called once (since the stub is not executed during kexec), and ensures that the UEFI state is identical between kexec and normal boot. This implies that the layout of the virtual mapping needs to be created by the stub as well. All regions are rounded up to a naturally aligned multiple of 64 KB (for compatibility with 64k pages kernels) and recorded in the UEFI memory map. The kernel proper reads those values and installs the mappings in a dedicated set of page tables that are swapped in during UEFI Runtime Services calls.

The early ioremap support introduced by patch bf4b558e ("arm64: add early_ioremap support") failed to add a call to early_ioremap_reset() at an appropriate time. Without this call, invocations of early_ioremap etc. that are done too late will go unnoticed and may cause corruption. This is exactly what happened when the first user of this feature was added in patch f84d0275 ("arm64: add EFI runtime services"). The early mapping of the EFI memory map is unmapped during an early initcall, at which time the early ioremap support is long gone. Fix by adding the missing call to early_ioremap_reset() to setup_arch(), and move the offending early_memunmap() to right after the point where the early mapping of the EFI memory map is last used.

On arm64 the TTBR0_EL1 register is set to either the reserved TTBR0 page tables on boot or to the active_mm mappings belonging to user space processes, it must never be set to swapper_pg_dir page tables mappings. When a CPU is booted its active_mm is set to init_mm even though its TTBR0_EL1 points at the reserved TTBR0 page mappings. This implies that when __cpu_suspend is triggered the active_mm can point at init_mm even if the current TTBR0_EL1 register contains the reserved TTBR0_EL1 mappings. Therefore, the mm save and restore executed in __cpu_suspend might turn out to be erroneous in that, if the current->active_mm corresponds to init_mm, on resume from low power it ends up restoring in the TTBR0_EL1 the init_mm mappings that are global and can cause speculation of TLB entries which end up being propagated to user space. This patch fixes the issue by checking the active_mm pointer before restoring the TTBR0 mappings. If the current active_mm == &init_mm, the code sets the TTBR0_EL1 to the reserved TTBR0 mapping instead of switching back to the active_mm, which is the expected behaviour corresponding to the TTBR0_EL1 settings when __cpu_suspend was entered.

Change the apply_alternatives() function to take a beginning and an end pointer and introduce a new variant (apply_alternatives_all()) to cover the existing use case for the static kernel image section. Add a module_finalize() function to arm64 to check for an alternatives section in a module and patch only the instructions from that specific area.

If the overflow threshold for a counter is set above or near the 0xffffffff boundary then the kernel may lose track of the overflow causing only events that occur *after* the overflow to be recorded. Specifically the problem occurs when the value of the performance counter overtakes its original programmed value due to wrap around. Typical solutions to this problem are either to avoid programming in values likely to be overtaken or to treat the overflow bit as the 33rd bit of the counter. Its somewhat fiddly to refactor the code to correctly handle the 33rd bit during irqsave sections (context switches for example) so instead we take the simpler approach of avoiding values likely to be overtaken. We set the limit to half of max_period because this matches the limit imposed in __hw_perf_event_init(). This causes a doubling of the interrupt rate for large threshold values, however even with a very fast counter ticking at 4GHz the interrupt rate would only be ~1Hz.

If tracer modifies a syscall number to -1, this traced system call should be skipped with a return value specified in x0. This patch implements this semantics. Please note: * syscall entry tracing and syscall exit tracing (ftrace tracepoint and audit) are always executed, if enabled, even when skipping a system call (that is, -1). In this way, we can avoid a potential bug where audit_syscall_entry() might be called without audit_syscall_exit() at the previous system call being called, that would cause OOPs in audit_syscall_entry().

This regeset is intended to be used to get and set a system call number while tracing.

In the arm64 arch_static_branch implementation we place an A64 NOP into the instruction stream and log relevant details to a jump_entry in a __jump_table section. Later this may be replaced with an immediate branch without link to the code for the unlikely case. At init time, the core calls arch_jump_label_transform_static to initialise the NOPs. On x86 this involves inserting the optimal NOP for a given microarchitecture, but on arm64 we only use the architectural NOP, and hence replace each NOP with the exact same NOP. This is somewhat pointless. Additionally, at module load time we don't call jump_label_apply_nops to patch the optimal NOPs in, unlike other architectures, but get away with this because we only use the architectural NOP anyway. A later notifier will patch NOPs with branches as required. Similarly to x86 commit 11570da1 (x86/jump-label: Do not bother updating NOPs if they are correct), we can avoid patching NOPs with identical NOPs. Given that we only use a single NOP encoding, this means we can NOP-out the body of arch_jump_label_transform_static entirely. As the default __weak arch_jump_label_transform_static implementation performs a patch, we must use an empty function to achieve this.

It seems that Cortex-A53 r0p4 added support for AIFSR and ADFSR, and ID_MMFR0.AuxReg has been updated accordingly to report this fact. As Cortex-A53 could be paired with CPUs which do not implement these registers (e.g. all current revisions of Cortex-A57), this may trigger a sanity check failure at boot. The AuxReg value describes the availability of the ACTLR, AIFSR, and ADFSR registers, which are only of use to 32-bit guest OSs, and have IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED contents. Given the nature of these registers it is likely that KVM will need to trap accesses regardless of whether the CPUs are heterogeneous.

The only requirement the scheduler has on cluster IDs is that they must be unique. When enumerating the topology based on MPIDR information the kernel currently generates cluster IDs by using the first level of affinity above the core ID (either level one or two depending on if the core has multiple threads) however the ARMv8 architecture allows for up to three levels of affinity. This means that an ARMv8 system may contain cores which have MPIDRs identical other than affinity level three which with current code will cause us to report multiple cores with the same identification to the scheduler in violation of its uniqueness requirement. Ensure that we do not violate the scheduler requirements on systems that uses all the affinity levels by incorporating both affinity levels two and three into the cluser ID when the cores are not threaded. While no currently known hardware uses multi-level clusters it is better to program defensively, this will help ease bringup of systems that have them and will ensure that things like distribution install media do not need to be respun to replace kernels in order to deploy such systems. In the worst case the system will work but perform suboptimally until a kernel modified to handle the new topology better is installed, in the best case this will be an adequate description of such topologies for the scheduler to perform well.

After each CPU has been started, we iterate through a list of CPU features or bugs to detect CPUs which need (or could benefit from) kernel code patches. For each feature/bug there is a function which checks if that particular CPU is affected. We will later provide some more generic functions for common things like testing for certain MIDR ranges. We do this for every CPU to cover big.LITTLE systems properly as well. If a certain feature/bug has been detected, the capability bit will be set, so that later the call to apply_alternatives() will trigger the actual code patching.

With a blatant copy of some x86 bits we introduce the alternative runtime patching "framework" to arm64. This is quite basic for now and we only provide the functions we need at this time. This is connected to the newly introduced feature bits. Signed-off-by: NAndre Przywara <andre.przywara@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NWill Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

For taking note if at least one CPU in the system needs a bug workaround or would benefit from a code optimization, we create a new bitmap to hold (artificial) feature bits. Since elf_hwcap is part of the userland ABI, we keep it alone and introduce a new data structure for that (along with some accessors).

update_insn_emulation_mode() returns 0 on success, so we should be treating any non-zero values as failure, rather than the other way around. Otherwise, writes to the sysctl file controlling the emulation are ignored and immediately rolled back.

Introduce an event to trace the usage of emulated instructions. The trace event is intended to help identify and encourage the migration of legacy software using the emulation features. Use this event to trace usage of swp and CP15 barrier emulation.

The CP15 barrier instructions (CP15ISB, CP15DSB and CP15DMB) are deprecated in the ARMv7 architecture, superseded by ISB, DSB and DMB instructions respectively. Some implementations may provide the ability to disable the CP15 barriers by disabling the CP15BEN bit in SCTLR_EL1. If not enabled, the encodings for these instructions become undefined. To support legacy software using these instructions, this patch register hooks to - * emulate CP15 barriers and warn the user about their use * toggle CP15BEN in SCTLR_EL1 Signed-off-by: NPunit Agrawal <punit.agrawal@arm.com> Reviewed-by: NCatalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NWill Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
