On a system where the firmware implements ARCH_WORKAROUND_2,
it may be useful to either permanently enable or disable the
workaround for cases where the user decides that they'd rather
not get a trap overhead, and keep the mitigation permanently
on or off instead of switching it on exception entry/exit.

In any case, default to the mitigation being enabled.

Adds a "pci=noats" boot parameter.  When supplied, all ATS related
functions fail immediately and the IOMMU is configured to not use
device-IOTLB.

Any function that checks for ATS capabilities directly against the devices
should also check this flag.  Currently, such functions exist only in IOMMU
drivers, and they are covered by this patch.

The motivation behind this patch is the existence of malicious devices.
Lots of research has been done about how to use the IOMMU as protection
from such devices.  When ATS is supported, any I/O device can access any
physical address by faking device-IOTLB entries.  Adding the ability to
ignore these entries lets sysadmins enhance system security.

Add prctl based control for Speculative Store Bypass mitigation and make it
the default mitigation for Intel and AMD.

Andi Kleen provided the following rationale (slightly redacted):

 There are multiple levels of impact of Speculative Store Bypass:

 1) JITed sandbox.
    It cannot invoke system calls, but can do PRIME+PROBE and may have call
    interfaces to other code

 2) Native code process.
    No protection inside the process at this level.

 3) Kernel.

 4) Between processes. 

 The prctl tries to protect against case (1) doing attacks.

 If the untrusted code can do random system calls then control is already
 lost in a much worse way. So there needs to be system call protection in
 some way (using a JIT not allowing them or seccomp). Or rather if the
 process can subvert its environment somehow to do the prctl it can already
 execute arbitrary code, which is much worse than SSB.

 To put it differently, the point of the prctl is to not allow JITed code
 to read data it shouldn't read from its JITed sandbox. If it already has
 escaped its sandbox then it can already read everything it wants in its
 address space, and do much worse.

 The ability to control Speculative Store Bypass allows to enable the
 protection selectively without affecting overall system performance.

Based on an initial patch from Tim Chen. Completely rewritten.

Contemporary high performance processors use a common industry-wide
optimization known as "Speculative Store Bypass" in which loads from
addresses to which a recent store has occurred may (speculatively) see an
older value. Intel refers to this feature as "Memory Disambiguation" which
is part of their "Smart Memory Access" capability.

Memory Disambiguation can expose a cache side-channel attack against such
speculatively read values. An attacker can create exploit code that allows
them to read memory outside of a sandbox environment (for example,
malicious JavaScript in a web page), or to perform more complex attacks
against code running within the same privilege level, e.g. via the stack.

As a first step to mitigate against such attacks, provide two boot command
line control knobs:

 nospec_store_bypass_disable
 spec_store_bypass_disable=[off,auto,on]

By default affected x86 processors will power on with Speculative
Store Bypass enabled. Hence the provided kernel parameters are written
from the point of view of whether to enable a mitigation or not.
The parameters are as follows:

 - auto - Kernel detects whether your CPU model contains an implementation
	  of Speculative Store Bypass and picks the most appropriate
	  mitigation.

 - on   - disable Speculative Store Bypass
 - off  - enable Speculative Store Bypass

Both kernelcore= and movablecore= can be used to define the amount of
ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE on a system, respectively.  This requires
the system memory capacity to be known when specifying the command line,
however.

This introduces the ability to define both kernelcore= and movablecore=
as a percentage of total system memory.  This is convenient for systems
software that wants to define the amount of ZONE_MOVABLE, for example,
as a proportion of a system's memory rather than a hardcoded byte value.

To define the percentage, the final character of the parameter should be
a '%'.

7570a333 ("PCI: Add pcie_hp=nomsi to disable MSI/MSI-X for pciehp
driver") added the "pcie_hp=nomsi" kernel parameter to work around this
error on shutdown:

  irq 16: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
  Pid: 1081, comm: reboot Not tainted 3.2.0 #1
  ...
  Disabling IRQ #16

This happened on an unspecified system (possibly involving the Integrated
Device Technology, Inc. Device 807f bridge) where "an un-wanted interrupt
is generated when PCI driver switches from MSI/MSI-X to INTx while shutting
down the device."

The implication was that the device was buggy, but it is normal for a
device to use INTx after MSI/MSI-X have been disabled.  The only problem
was that the driver was still attached and it wasn't prepared for INTx
interrupts.  Prarit Bhargava fixed this issue with fda78d7a ("PCI/MSI:
Stop disabling MSI/MSI-X in pci_device_shutdown()").

There is no automated way to set this parameter, so it's not very useful
for distributions or end users.  It's really only useful for debugging, and
we have "pci=nomsi" for that purpose.

Trying quirks in usbcore needs to rebuild the driver or the entire
kernel if it's builtin. It can save a lot of time if usbcore has similar
ability like "usbhid.quirks=" and "usb-storage.quirks=".

Rename the original quirk detection function to "static" as we introduce
this new "dynamic" function.

Now users can use "usbcore.quirks=" as short term workaround before the
next kernel release. Also, the quirk parameter can XOR the builtin
quirks for debugging purpose.

of some of its oddities like a non-working SMP port, and the amount of
duplication between the chip variants, which cause extra work when

For most GICv3 implementations, enabling LPIs is a one way switch.
Once they're on, there is no turning back, which completely kills
kexec (pending tables will always be live, and we can't tell the
secondary kernel where they are).

This is really annoying if you plan to use Linux as a bootloader,
as it pretty much guarantees that the secondary kernel won't be
able to use MSIs, and may even see some memory corruption. Bad.

A workaround for this unfortunate situation is to allow the kernel
not to enable LPIs, even if the feature is present in the HW. This
would allow Linux-as-a-bootloader to leave LPIs alone, and let the
secondary kernel to do whatever it wants with them.

Let's introduce a boolean "irqchip.gicv3_nolpi" command line option
that serves that purpose.

Trying quirks in usbcore needs to rebuild the driver or the entire
kernel if it's builtin. It can save a lot of time if usbcore has similar
ability like "usbhid.quirks=" and "usb-storage.quirks=".

Rename the original quirk detection function to "static" as we introduce
this new "dynamic" function.

Now users can use "usbcore.quirks=" as short term workaround before the
next kernel release. Also, the quirk parameter can XOR the builtin
quirks for debugging purpose.

This is inspired by usbhid and usb-storage.

If you pass in an invalid audit boot parameter value, e.g. "audit=off",
the kernel panics very early in boot before the regular console is
initialized.  Unless you have earlyprintk enabled, there is no
indication of what the problem is on the console.

Convert the panic() calls to pr_err(), and leave auditing enabled if an
invalid parameter value was passed in.

Modify the parameter to also accept "on" or "off" as valid values, and
update the documentation accordingly.

Add a more versatile memmap= operator, which -- in addition to all the
things that were possible before -- allows you to:

- redeclare existing ranges -- before, you were limited to adding ranges;
- drop any range -- like a mem= for any location;
- use any e820 memory type -- not just some predefined ones.

The syntax is:

  memmap=<size>%<offset>-<oldtype>+<newtype>

Size and offset work as usual. The "-<oldtype>" and "+<newtype>" are
optional and their existence determine the behavior: The command
works on the specified range of memory limited to type <oldtype>
(if specified). This memory is then configured to show up as <newtype>.
If <newtype> is not specified, the memory is removed from the e820 map.

SPCR is currently only enabled or ARM64 and x86 can use SPCR to setup
an early console.

General fixes include updating Documentation & Kconfig (for x86),
updating comments, and changing parse_spcr() to acpi_parse_spcr(),
and earlycon_init_is_deferred to earlycon_acpi_spcr_enable to be
more descriptive.

On x86, many systems have a valid SPCR table but the table version is
not 2 so the table version check must be a warning.

On ARM64 when the kernel parameter earlycon is used both the early console
and console are enabled.  On x86, only the earlycon should be enabled by
by default.  Modify acpi_parse_spcr() to allow options for initializing
the early console and console separately.

The 'noreplace-paravirt' option disables paravirt patching, leaving the
original pv indirect calls in place.

That's highly incompatible with retpolines, unless we want to uglify
paravirt even further and convert the paravirt calls to retpolines.

As far as I can tell, the option doesn't seem to be useful for much
other than introducing surprising corner cases and making the kernel
vulnerable to Spectre v2.  It was probably a debug option from the early
paravirt days.  So just remove it.

Add a spectre_v2= option to select the mitigation used for the indirect
branch speculation vulnerability.

Currently, the only option available is retpoline, in its various forms.
This will be expanded to cover the new IBRS/IBPB microcode features.

The RETPOLINE_AMD feature relies on a serializing LFENCE for speculation
control. For AMD hardware, only set RETPOLINE_AMD if LFENCE is a
serializing instruction, which is indicated by the LFENCE_RDTSC feature.

Only try to enable a 64-bit window on AMD CPUs when "pci=big_root_window"
is specified.

This taints the kernel because the new 64-bit window uses address space we
don't know anything about, and it may contain unreported devices or memory
that would conflict with the window.

The pci_amd_enable_64bit_bar() quirk that enables the window is specific to
AMD CPUs.  The generic solution would be to have the firmware enable the
window and describe it in the host bridge's _CRS method, or at least
describe it in the _PRS method so the OS would have the option of enabling
it.

0day and kernelCI automatically parse kernel log - basically some sort
of grepping using the pre-defined text patterns - in order to detect
and report regressions/errors. There are several sources they get the
kernel logs from:

a) dmesg or /proc/ksmg

   This is the preferred way. Because `dmesg --raw' (see later Note)
   and /proc/kmsg output contains facility and log level, which greatly
   simplifies grepping for EMERG/ALERT/CRIT/ERR messages.

b) serial consoles

   This option is harder to maintain, because serial console messages
   don't contain facility and log level.

This patch introduces a `console_msg_format=' command line option,
to switch between different message formatting on serial consoles.
For the time being we have just two options - default and syslog.
The "default" option just keeps the existing format. While the
"syslog" option makes serial console messages to appear in syslog
format [syslog() syscall], matching the `dmesg -S --raw' and
`cat /proc/kmsg' output formats:

- facility and log level
- time stamp (depends on printk_time/PRINTK_TIME)
- message

	<%u>[time stamp] text\n

NOTE: while Kevin and Fengguang talk about "dmesg --raw", it's actually
"dmesg -S --raw" that always prints messages in syslog format [per
Petr Mladek]. Running "dmesg --raw" may produce output in non-syslog
format sometimes. console_msg_format=syslog enables syslog format,
thus in documentation we mention "dmesg -S --raw", not "dmesg --raw".

Per Kevin Hilman:

: Right now we can get this info from a "dmesg --raw" after bootup,
: but it would be really nice in certain automation frameworks to
: have a kernel command-line option to enable printing of loglevels
: in default boot log.
:
: This is especially useful when ingesting kernel logs into advanced
: search/analytics frameworks (I'm playing with and ELK stack: Elastic
: Search, Logstash, Kibana).
:
: The other important reason for having this on the command line is that
: for testing linux-next (and other bleeding edge developer branches),
: it's common that we never make it to userspace, so can't even run
: "dmesg --raw" (or equivalent.)  So we really want this on the primary
: boot (serial) console.

Per Fengguang Wu, 0day scripts should quickly benefit from that
feature, because they will be able to switch to a more reliable
parsing, based on messages' facility and log levels [1]:

`#{grep} -a -E -e '^<[0123]>' -e '^kern  :(err   |crit  |alert |emerg )'

instead of doing text pattern matching

`#{grep} -a -F -f /lkp/printk-error-messages #{kmsg_file} |
      grep -a -v -E -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/oops-pattern |
      grep -a -v -F -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/kmsg-blacklist`
