The arm64 Image header contains a text_offset field which bootloaders are supposed to read to determine the offset (from a 2MB aligned "start of memory" per booting.txt) at which to load the kernel. The offset is not well respected by bootloaders at present, and due to the lack of variation there is little incentive to support it. This is unfortunate for the sake of future kernels where we may wish to vary the text offset (even zeroing it). This patch adds options to arm64 to enable fuzz-testing of text_offset. CONFIG_ARM64_RANDOMIZE_TEXT_OFFSET forces the text offset to a random 16-byte aligned value value in the range [0..2MB) upon a build of the kernel. It is recommended that distribution kernels enable randomization to test bootloaders such that any compliance issues can be fixed early.

Currently the kernel Image is stripped of everything past the initial stack, and at runtime the memory is initialised and used by the kernel. This makes the effective minimum memory footprint of the kernel larger than the size of the loaded binary, though bootloaders have no mechanism to identify how large this minimum memory footprint is. This makes it difficult to choose safe locations to place both the kernel and other binaries required at boot (DTB, initrd, etc), such that the kernel won't clobber said binaries or other reserved memory during initialisation. Additionally when big endian support was added the image load offset was overlooked, and is currently of an arbitrary endianness, which makes it difficult for bootloaders to make use of it. It seems that bootloaders aren't respecting the image load offset at present anyway, and are assuming that offset 0x80000 will always be correct. This patch adds an effective image size to the kernel header which describes the amount of memory from the start of the kernel Image binary which the kernel expects to use before detecting memory and handling any memory reservations. This can be used by bootloaders to choose suitable locations to load the kernel and/or other binaries such that the kernel will not clobber any memory unexpectedly. As before, memory reservations are required to prevent the kernel from clobbering these locations later. Both the image load offset and the effective image size are forced to be little-endian regardless of the native endianness of the kernel to enable bootloaders to load a kernel of arbitrary endianness. Bootloaders which wish to make use of the load offset can inspect the effective image size field for a non-zero value to determine if the offset is of a known endianness. To enable software to determine the endinanness of the kernel as may be required for certain use-cases, a new flags field (also little-endian) is added to the kernel header to export this information. The documentation is updated to clarify these details. To discourage future assumptions regarding the value of text_offset, the value at this point in time is removed from the main flow of the documentation (though kept as a compatibility note). Some minor formatting issues in the documentation are also corrected.

Currently we place swapper_pg_dir and idmap_pg_dir below the kernel image, between PHYS_OFFSET and (PHYS_OFFSET + TEXT_OFFSET). However, bootloaders may use portions of this memory below the kernel and we do not parse the memory reservation list until after the MMU has been enabled. As such we may clobber some memory a bootloader wishes to have preserved. To enable the use of all of this memory by bootloaders (when the required memory reservations are communicated to the kernel) it is necessary to move our initial page tables elsewhere. As we currently have an effectively unbound requirement for memory at the end of the kernel image for .bss, we can place the page tables here. This patch moves the initial page table to the end of the kernel image, after the BSS. As they do not consist of any initialised data they will be stripped from the kernel Image as with the BSS. The BSS clearing routine is updated to stop at __bss_stop rather than _end so as to not clobber the page tables, and memory reservations made redundant by the new organisation are removed.

Currently __turn_mmu_on is aligned to 64 bytes to ensure that it doesn't span any page boundary, which simplifies the idmap and spares us requiring an additional page table to map half of the function. In keeping with other important requirements in architecture code, this fact is undocumented. Additionally, as the function consists of three instructions totalling 12 bytes with no literal pool data, a smaller alignment of 16 bytes would be sufficient. This patch reduces the alignment to 16 bytes and documents the underlying reason for the alignment. This reduces the required alignment of the entire .head.text section from 64 bytes to 16 bytes, though it may still be aligned to a larger value depending on TEXT_OFFSET.

Make calls to ct_user_enter when the kernel is exited and ct_user_exit when the kernel is entered (in el0_da, el0_ia, el0_svc, el0_irq and all of the "error" paths). These macros expand to function calls which will only work properly if el0_sync and related code has been rearranged (in a previous patch of this series). The calls to ct_user_exit are made after hw debugging has been enabled (enable_dbg_and_irq). The call to ct_user_enter is made at the beginning of the kernel_exit macro.

To implement the context tracker properly on arm64, a function call needs to be made after debugging and interrupts are turned on, but before the lr is changed to point to ret_to_user(). If the function call is made after the lr is changed the function will not return to the correct place.

It happens because compat_gpr_get and compat_gpr_set functions can copy registers values to/from either kbuf or ubuf. ELF core file collection function fill_thread_core_info calls compat_gpr_get with kbuf set and ubuf set to 0. But current compat_gpr_get and compat_gpr_set function handle copy to/from only ubuf case.

On platforms implementing CPU power management, the CPUidle subsystem can allow CPUs to enter idle states where local timers logic is lost on power down. To keep the software timers functional the kernel relies on an always-on broadcast timer to be present in the platform to relay the interrupt signalling the timer expiries. For platforms implementing CPU core gating that do not implement an always-on HW timer or implement it in a broken way, this patch adds code to initialize the kernel hrtimer based clock event device upon boot (which can be chosen as tick broadcast device by the kernel). It relies on a dynamically chosen CPU to be always powered-up. This CPU then relays the timer interrupt to CPUs in deep-idle states through its HW local timer device. Having a CPU always-on has implications on power management platform capabilities and makes CPUidle suboptimal, since at least a CPU is kept always in a shallow idle state by the kernel to relay timer interrupts, but at least leaves the kernel with a functional system with some working power management capabilities. The hrtimer based clock event device is unconditionally registered, but has the lowest possible rating such that any broadcast-capable HW clock event device present will be chosen in preference as the tick broadcast device.

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.

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.

This patch ports most of commit 19ab428f "ARM: 7759/1: decouple CPU offlining from reboot/shutdown" by Stephen Warren from arch/arm to arch/arm64. machine_shutdown() is a hook for kexec. Add a comment saying so, since it isn't obvious from the function name. Halt, power-off, and restart have different requirements re: stopping secondary CPUs than kexec has. The former simply require the secondary CPUs to be quiesced somehow, whereas kexec requires them to be completely non-operational, so that no matter where the kexec target images are written in RAM, they won't influence operation of the secondary CPUS,which could happen if the CPUs were still executing some kind of pin loop. To this end, modify machine_halt, power_off, and restart to call smp_send_stop() directly, rather than calling machine_shutdown(). In machine_shutdown(), replace the call to smp_send_stop() with a call to disable_nonboot_cpus(). This completely disables all but one CPU, thus satisfying the kexec requirements a couple paragraphs above.

Some kernel files may include both linux/compat.h and asm/compat.h directly or indirectly. Since both header files contain is_compat_task() under !CONFIG_COMPAT, compiling them with !CONFIG_COMPAT will eventually fail. Such files include kernel/auditsc.c, kernel/seccomp.c and init/do_mountfs.c (do_mountfs.c may read asm/compat.h via asm/ftrace.h once ftrace is implemented). So this patch proactively 1) removes is_compat_task() under !CONFIG_COMPAT from asm/compat.h 2) replaces asm/compat.h to linux/compat.h in kernel/*.c, but asm/compat.h is still necessary in ptrace.c and process.c because they use is_compat_thread().

Since mdscr_el1 is part of the debug register group, it is highly likely to be trapped by a hypervisor to prevent virtual machines from debugging (buggering?) each other. Unfortunately, this absolutely destroys our performance, since we access the register on many of our low-level fault handling paths to keep track of the various debug state machines. This patch removes our dependency on mdscr_el1 in the case that debugging is not being used. More specifically we: - Use TIF_SINGLESTEP to indicate that a task is stepping at EL0 and avoid disabling step in the MDSCR when we don't need to. MDSCR_EL1.SS handling is moved to kernel_entry, when trapping from userspace. - Ensure debug exceptions are re-enabled on *all* exception entry paths, even the debug exception handling path (where we re-enable exceptions after invoking the handler). Since we can now rely on MDSCR_EL1.SS being cleared by the entry code, exception handlers can usually enable debug immediately before enabling interrupts. - Remove all debug exception unmasking from ret_to_user and el1_preempt, since we will never get here with debug exceptions masked. This results in a slight change to kernel debug behaviour, where we now step into interrupt handlers and data aborts from EL1 when debugging the kernel, which is actually a useful thing to do. A side-effect of this is that it *does* potentially prevent stepping off {break,watch}points when there is a high-frequency interrupt source (e.g. a timer), so a debugger would need to use either breakpoints or manually disable interrupts to get around this issue. With this patch applied, guest performance is restored under KVM when debug register accesses are trapped (and we get a measurable performance increase on the host on Cortex-A57 too).

Commit 01f8fa4f("genirq: Allow forcing cpu affinity of interrupts") enabled the forced irq_set_affinity which previously refused to route an interrupt to an offline cpu. Commit ffde1de6("irqchip: Gic: Support forced affinity setting") implements this force logic and disables the cpu online check for GIC interrupt controller. When __cpu_disable calls migrate_irqs, it disables the current cpu in cpu_online_mask and uses forced irq_set_affinity to migrate the IRQs away from the cpu but passes affinity mask with the cpu being offlined also included in it. When calling irq_set_affinity with force == true in a cpu hotplug path, the caller must ensure that the cpu being offlined is not present in the affinity mask or it may be selected as the target CPU, leading to the interrupt not being migrated. This patch uses cpu_online_mask when using forced irq_set_affinity so that the IRQs are properly migrated away.

set_cpu_boot_mode_flag is used to identify which exception levels are encountered across the system by CPUs trying to enter the kernel. The basic algorithm is: if a CPU is booting at EL2, it will set a flag at an offset of #4 from __boot_cpu_mode, a cacheline-aligned variable. Otherwise, a flag is set at an offset of zero into the same cacheline. This enables us to check that all CPUs booted at the same exception level. This cacheline is written with the stage-1 MMU off (that is, via a strongly-ordered mapping) and will bypass any clean lines in the cache, leading to potential coherence problems when the variable is later checked via the normal, cacheable mapping of the kernel image. This patch reworks the broken flushing code so that we: (1) Use a DMB to order the strongly-ordered write of the cacheline against the subsequent cache-maintenance operation (by-VA operations only hazard against normal, cacheable accesses). (2) Use a single dc ivac instruction to invalidate any clean lines containing a stale copy of the line after it has been updated.
