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.

The arm64 architecture has the ability to exclusively load and store a pair of registers from an address (ldxp/stxp). Also the SLUB can take advantage of a cmpxchg_double implementation to avoid taking some locks. This patch provides an implementation of cmpxchg_double for 64-bit pairs, and activates the logic required for the SLUB to use these functions (HAVE_ALIGNED_STRUCT_PAGE and HAVE_CMPXCHG_DOUBLE). Also definitions of this_cpu_cmpxchg_8 and this_cpu_cmpxchg_double_8 are wired up to cmpxchg_local and cmpxchg_double_local (rather than the stock implementations that perform non-atomic operations with interrupts disabled) as they are used by the SLUB. On a Juno platform running on only the A57s I get quite a noticeable performance improvement with 5 runs of hackbench on v3.17: Baseline | With Patch -----------------+----------- Mean 119.2312 | 106.1782 StdDev 0.4919 | 0.4494 (times taken to complete `./hackbench 100 process 1000', in seconds) Signed-off-by: NSteve Capper <steve.capper@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NWill Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

When user asks to turn off ASLR by writing "0" to /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space there should not be any randomization to mmap base, stack, VDSO, libs, text and heap Currently arm64 violates this behavior by randomising text. Fix this by defining a constant ELF_ET_DYN_BASE. The randomisation of mm->mmap_base is done by setup_new_exec -> arch_pick_mmap_layout -> mmap_base -> mmap_rnd.

Raising the current maximum limit to 64. This is needed for Cavium's Thunder systems that will have at least 48 cores per die. The change keeps the current memory footprint in cpu mask structures. It does not break existing code. Setting the maximum to 64 cpus still boots systems with less cpus. Mark's Juno happily booted with a NR_CPUS=64 kernel. Tested on our Thunder system with 48 cores.

This patch implements 4 levels of translation tables since 3 levels of page tables with 4KB pages cannot support 40-bit physical address space described in [1] due to the following issue. It is a restriction that kernel logical memory map with 4KB + 3 levels (0xffffffc000000000-0xffffffffffffffff) cannot cover RAM region from 544GB to 1024GB in [1]. Specifically, ARM64 kernel fails to create mapping for this region in map_mem function since __phys_to_virt for this region reaches to address overflow. If SoC design follows the document, [1], over 32GB RAM would be placed from 544GB. Even 64GB system is supposed to use the region from 544GB to 576GB for only 32GB RAM. Naturally, it would reach to enable 4 levels of page tables to avoid hacking __virt_to_phys and __phys_to_virt. However, it is recommended 4 levels of page table should be only enabled if memory map is too sparse or there is about 512GB RAM.

According to the UEFI spec section 2.3.6.4, the use of FP/SIMD instructions is allowed, and should adhere to the AAPCS64 calling convention, which states that 'only the bottom 64 bits of each value stored in registers v8-v15 need to be preserved' (section 5.1.2). This applies equally to UEFI Runtime Services called by the kernel, so make sure the FP/SIMD register file is preserved in this case. We do this by enabling the wrappers for UEFI Runtime Services (CONFIG_EFI_RUNTIME_WRAPPERS) and inserting calls to kernel_neon_begin()and kernel_neon_end() into these wrappers.

This patch allows "dynamic ftrace" if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE is enabled. Here we can turn on and off tracing dynamically per-function base. On arm64, this is done by patching single branch instruction to _mcount() inserted by gcc -pg option. The branch is replaced to NOP initially at kernel start up, and later on, NOP to branch to ftrace_caller() when enabled or branch to NOP when disabled. Please note that ftrace_caller() is a counterpart of _mcount() in case of 'static' ftrace. More details on architecture specific requirements are described in Documentation/trace/ftrace-design.txt.

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.

Recordmcount utility under scripts is run, after compiling each object, to find out all the locations of calling _mcount() and put them into specific seciton named __mcount_loc. Then linker collects all such information into a table in the kernel image (between __start_mcount_loc and __stop_mcount_loc) for later use by ftrace. This patch adds arm64 specific definitions to identify such locations. There are two types of implementation, C and Perl. On arm64, only C version is used to build the kernel now that CONFIG_HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT is on. But Perl version is also maintained. This patch also contains a workaround just in case where a header file, elf.h, on host machine doesn't have definitions of EM_AARCH64 nor R_AARCH64_ABS64. Without them, compiling C version of recordmcount will fail.

The hardware provides the maximum cache line size in the system via the CTR_EL0.CWG bits. This patch implements the cache_line_size() function to read such information, together with a sanity check if the statically defined L1_CACHE_BYTES is smaller than the hardware value.
