CPU Errata work arounds are detected and applied to the kernel code at boot time and the data is then freed up. If a new hotplugged CPU requires a work around which was not applied at boot time, there is nothing we can do but simply fail the booting.

Now that the capabilities are only available once all the CPUs have booted, we're unable to check for a particular feature in any subsystem that gets initialized before then. In order to support this, introduce a local_cpu_has_cap() function that tests for the presence of a given capability independently of the whole framework.

On ARMv8 support for AArch32 state is optional. Hence it is not safe to check the AArch32 ID registers for sanity, which could lead to false warnings. This patch makes sure that the AArch32 state is implemented before we keep track of the 32bit ID registers. As per ARM ARM (D.1.21.2 - Support for Exception Levels and Execution States, DDI0487A.h), checking the support for AArch32 at EL0 is good enough to check the support for AArch32 (i.e, AArch32 at EL1 => AArch32 at EL0, but not vice versa).

With a VHE capable CPU, kernel can run at EL2 and is a decided at early boot. If some of the CPUs didn't start it EL2 or doesn't have VHE, we could have CPUs running at different exception levels, all in the same kernel! This patch adds an early check for the secondary CPUs to detect such situations. For each non-boot CPU add a sanity check to make sure we don't have different run levels w.r.t the boot CPU. We save the information on whether the boot CPU is running in hyp mode or not and ensure the remaining CPUs match it.

Commit 0f54b14e ("arm64: cpufeature: Change read_cpuid() to use sysreg's mrs_s macro") changed read_cpuid to require a SYS_ prefix on register names, to allow manual assembly of registers unknown by the toolchain, using tables in sysreg.h. This interacts poorly with commit 42b55734 ("efi/arm64: Check for h/w support before booting a >4 KB granular kernel"), which is curretly queued via the tip tree, and uses read_cpuid without a SYS_ prefix. Due to this, a build of next-20160304 fails if EFI and 64K pages are selected. To avoid this issue when trees are merged, move the required SYS_ prefixing into read_cpuid, and revert all of the updated callsites to pass plain register names. This effectively reverts the bulk of commit 0f54b14e.

There is a confusion on whether the values of a feature are signed or not in ARM. This is not clearly mentioned in the ARM ARM either. We have dealt most of the bits as signed so far, and marked the rest as unsigned explicitly. This fixed in ARM ARM and will be rolled out soon. Here is the criteria in a nutshell: 1) The fields, which are either signed or unsigned, use increasing numerical values to indicate an increase in functionality. Thus, if a value of 0x1 indicates the presence of some instructions, then the 0x2 value will indicate the presence of those instructions plus some additional instructions or functionality. 2) For ID field values where the value 0x0 defines that a feature is not present, the number is an unsigned value. 3) For some features where the feature was made optional or removed after the start of the definition of the architecture, the value 0x0 is used to indicate the presence of a feature, and 0xF indicates the absence of the feature. In these cases, the fields are, in effect, holding signed values. So with these rules applied, we have only the following fields which are signed and the rest are unsigned. a) ID_AA64PFR0_EL1: {FP, ASIMD} b) ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1: {TGran4K, TGran64K} c) ID_AA64DFR0_EL1: PMUVer (0xf - PMUv3 not implemented) d) ID_DFR0_EL1: PerfMon e) ID_MMFR0_EL1: {InnerShr, OuterShr} Signed-off-by: NSuzuki K.

Adds a hook for checking whether a secondary CPU has the features used already by the kernel during early boot, based on the boot CPU and plugs in the check for ASID size. The ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1:ASIDBits determines the size of the mm context id and is used in the early boot to make decisions. The value is picked up from the Boot CPU and cannot be delayed until other CPUs are up. If a secondary CPU has a smaller size than that of the Boot CPU, things will break horribly and the usual SANITY check is not good enough to prevent the system from crashing. So, crash the system with enough information.

We verify the capabilities of the secondary CPUs only when hotplug is enabled. The boot time activated CPUs do not go through the verification by checking whether the system wide capabilities were initialised or not. This patch removes the capability check dependency on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU, to make sure that all the secondary CPUs go through the check. The boot time activated CPUs will still skip the system wide capability check. The plan is to hook in a check for CPU features used by the kernel at early boot up, based on the Boot CPU values.

Or in other words, make fail_incapable_cpu() reusable. We use fail_incapable_cpu() to kill a secondary CPU early during the bringup, which doesn't have the system advertised capabilities. This patch makes the routine more generic, to kill a secondary booting CPU, getting rid of the dependency on capability struct. This can be used by checks which are not necessarily attached to a capability struct (e.g, cpu ASIDBits). In that process, renames the function to cpu_die_early() to better match its functionality. This will be moved to arch/arm64/kernel/smp.c later.

If a CPU supports both Privileged Access Never (PAN) and User Access Override (UAO), we don't need to disable/re-enable PAN round all copy_to_user() like calls. UAO alternatives cause these calls to use the 'unprivileged' load/store instructions, which are overridden to be the privileged kind when fs==KERNEL_DS. This patch changes the copy_to_user() calls to have their PAN toggling depend on a new composite 'feature' ARM64_ALT_PAN_NOT_UAO. If both features are detected, PAN will be enabled, but the copy_to_user() alternatives will not be applied. This means PAN will be enabled all the time for these functions. If only PAN is detected, the toggling will be enabled as normal. This will save the time taken to disable/re-enable PAN, and allow us to catch copy_to_user() accesses that occur with fs==KERNEL_DS. Futex and swp-emulation code continue to hang their PAN toggling code on ARM64_HAS_PAN. Signed-off-by: NJames Morse <james.morse@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NCatalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

CPU feature code uses the desc field as a test to find the end of the list, this means every entry must have a description. This generates noise for entries in the list that aren't really features, but combinations of them. e.g. > CPU features: detected feature: Privileged Access Never > CPU features: detected feature: PAN and not UAO These combination features are needed for corner cases with alternatives, where cpu features interact.

'User Access Override' is a new ARMv8.2 feature which allows the unprivileged load and store instructions to be overridden to behave in the normal way. This patch converts {get,put}_user() and friends to use ldtr*/sttr* instructions - so that they can only access EL0 memory, then enables UAO when fs==KERNEL_DS so that these functions can access kernel memory. This allows user space's read/write permissions to be checked against the page tables, instead of testing addr<USER_DS, then using the kernel's read/write permissions.

At the moment we run through the arm64_features capability list for each CPU and set the capability if one of the CPU supports it. This could be problematic in a heterogeneous system with differing capabilities. Delay the CPU feature checks until all the enabled CPUs are up(i.e, smp_cpus_done(), so that we can make better decisions based on the overall system capability. Once we decide and advertise the capabilities the alternatives can be applied. From this state, we cannot roll back a feature to disabled based on the values from a new hotplugged CPU, due to the runtime patching and other reasons. So, for all new CPUs, we need to make sure that they have the established system capabilities. Failing which, we bring the CPU down, preventing it from turning online. Once the capabilities are decided, any new CPU booting up goes through verification to ensure that it has all the enabled capabilities and also invokes the respective enable() method on the CPU. The CPU errata checks are not delayed and is still executed per-CPU to detect the respective capabilities. If we ever come across a non-errata capability that needs to be checked on each-CPU, we could introduce them via a new capability table(or introduce a flag), which can be processed per CPU. The next patch will make the feature checks use the system wide safe value of a feature register. NOTE: The enable() methods associated with the capability is scheduled on all the CPUs (which is the only use case at the moment). If we need a different type of 'enable()' which only needs to be run once on any CPU, we should be able to handle that when needed. Signed-off-by: NSuzuki K.
