When we're updating a register's sys_val, we use arm64_ftr_value() to find the new field value. We use cpuid_feature_extract_field() to find the new value, but this implicitly assumes a 4-bit field, so we may extract more bits than we mean to for fields like CTR_EL0.L1ip. This affects update_cpu_ftr_reg(), where we may extract erroneous values for ftr_cur and ftr_new. Depending on the additional bits extracted in either case, we may erroneously detect that the value is mismatched, and we'll try to compute a new safe value. Dependent on these extra bits and feature type, arm64_ftr_safe_value() may pessimistically select the always-safe value, or may erroneously choose either the extracted cur or new value as the safe option. The extra bits will subsequently be masked out in arm64_ftr_set_value(), so we may choose a higher value, yet write back a lower one. Fix this by passing the width down explicitly in arm64_ftr_value(), so we always extract the correct amount.

This patch adds the uaccess macros/functions to disable access to user space by setting TTBR0_EL1 to a reserved zeroed page. Since the value written to TTBR0_EL1 must be a physical address, for simplicity this patch introduces a reserved_ttbr0 page at a constant offset from swapper_pg_dir. The uaccess_disable code uses the ttbr1_el1 value adjusted by the reserved_ttbr0 offset. Enabling access to user is done by restoring TTBR0_EL1 with the value from the struct thread_info ttbr0 variable. Interrupts must be disabled during the uaccess_ttbr0_enable code to ensure the atomicity of the thread_info.ttbr0 read and TTBR0_EL1 write. This patch also moves the get_thread_info asm macro from entry.S to assembler.h for reuse in the uaccess_ttbr0_* macros.

The arm64 kernel assumes that FP/ASIMD units are always present and accesses the FP/ASIMD specific registers unconditionally. This could cause problems when they are absent. This patch adds the support for kernel handling systems without FP/ASIMD by skipping the register access within the kernel. For kvm, we trap the accesses to FP/ASIMD and inject an undefined instruction exception to the VM. The callers of the exported kernel_neon_begin_partial() should make sure that the FP/ASIMD is supported.

The hypervisor may not have full access to the kernel data structures and hence cannot safely use cpus_have_cap() helper for checking the system capability. Add a safe helper for hypervisors to check a constant system capability, which *doesn't* fall back to checking the bitmap maintained by the kernel. With this, make the cpus_have_cap() only check the bitmask and force constant cap checks to use the new API for quicker checks.

Commit efd9e03f ("arm64: Use static keys for CPU features") introduced support for static keys in asm/cpufeature.h, including linux/jump_label.h. When CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO is not defined, this causes a circular dependency via linux/atomic.h, asm/lse.h and asm/cpufeature.h. This patch moves the capability macros out out of asm/cpufeature.h into a separate asm/cpucaps.h and modifies some of the #includes accordingly.

The enable() call for a cpufeature/errata is called using on_each_cpu(). This issues a cross-call IPI to get the work done. Implicitly, this stashes the running PSTATE in SPSR when the CPU receives the IPI, and restores it when we return. This means an enable() call can never modify PSTATE. To allow PAN to do this, change the on_each_cpu() call to use stop_machine(). This schedules the work on each CPU which allows us to modify PSTATE. This involves changing the protype of all the enable() functions. enable_cpu_capabilities() is called during boot and enables the feature on all online CPUs. This path now uses stop_machine(). CPU features for hotplug'd CPUs are enabled by verify_local_cpu_features() which only acts on the local CPU, and can already modify the running PSTATE as it is called from secondary_start_kernel().

Systems with differing CPU i-cache/d-cache line sizes can cause problems with the cache management by software when the execution is migrated from one to another. Usually, the application reads the cache size on a CPU and then uses that length to perform cache operations. However, if it gets migrated to another CPU with a smaller cache line size, things could go completely wrong. To prevent such cases, always use the smallest cache line size among the CPUs. The kernel CPU feature infrastructure already keeps track of the safe value for all CPUID registers including CTR. This patch works around the problem by : For kernel, dynamically patch the kernel to read the cache size from the system wide copy of CTR_EL0. For applications, trap read accesses to CTR_EL0 (by clearing the SCTLR.UCT) and emulate the mrs instruction to return the system wide safe value of CTR_EL0. For faster access (i.e, avoiding to lookup the system wide value of CTR_EL0 via read_system_reg), we keep track of the pointer to table entry for CTR_EL0 in the CPU feature infrastructure.

Right now we run through the work around checks on a CPU from __cpuinfo_store_cpu. There are some problems with that: 1) We initialise the system wide CPU feature registers only after the Boot CPU updates its cpuinfo. Now, if a work around depends on the variance of a CPU ID feature (e.g, check for Cache Line size mismatch), we have no way of performing it cleanly for the boot CPU. 2) It is out of place, invoked from __cpuinfo_store_cpu() in cpuinfo.c. It is not an obvious place for that. This patch rearranges the CPU specific capability(aka work around) checks. 1) At the moment we use verify_local_cpu_capabilities() to check if a new CPU has all the system advertised features. Use this for the secondary CPUs to perform the work around check. For that we rename verify_local_cpu_capabilities() => check_local_cpu_capabilities() which: If the system wide capabilities haven't been initialised (i.e, the CPU is activated at the boot), update the system wide detected work arounds. Otherwise (i.e a CPU hotplugged in later) verify that this CPU conforms to the system wide capabilities. 2) Boot CPU updates the work arounds from smp_prepare_boot_cpu() after we have initialised the system wide CPU feature values.

This patch adds static keys transparently for all the cpu_hwcaps features by implementing an array of default-false static keys and enabling them when detected. The cpus_have_cap() check uses the static keys if the feature being checked is a constant, otherwise the compiler generates the bitmap test. Because of the early call to static_branch_enable() via check_local_cpu_errata() -> update_cpu_capabilities(), the jump labels are initialised in cpuinfo_store_boot_cpu().

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.

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>

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.

check_cpu_capabilities runs through a given list of caps and checks if the system has the cap, updates the system capability bitmap and also runs any enable() methods associated with them. All of this is not quite obvious from the name 'check'. This patch splits the check_cpu_capabilities into two parts : 1) update_cpu_capabilities => Runs through the given list and updates the system wide capability map. 2) enable_cpu_capabilities => Runs through the given list and invokes enable() (if any) for the caps enabled on the system.
