Inner-shareable TLB invalidation is typically more expensive than local
(non-shareable) invalidation, so performing the broadcasting for
local_flush_tlb_* operations is a waste of cycles and needlessly
clobbers entries in the TLBs of other CPUs.
This patch introduces __flush_tlb_* versions for many of the TLB
invalidation functions, which only respect inner-shareable variants of
the invalidation instructions when presented with the TLB_V7_UIS_FULL
flag. The local version is also inlined to prevent SMP_ON_UP kernels
from missing flushes, where the __flush variant would be called with
the UP flags.
This gains us around 0.5% in hackbench scores for a dual-core A15, but I
would expect this to improve as more cores (and clusters) are added to
the equation.

The kernel TLB range invalidation functions already contain dsb
instructions before and after the maintenance, so there is no need to
introduce additional barriers.

If kuser helpers are not provided by the kernel, disable user access to
the vectors page. With the kuser helpers gone, there is no reason for

Provide a kernel configuration option to allow the kernel user helpers
to be removed from the vector page, thereby preventing their use with
ROP (return orientated programming) attacks. This option is only
visible for CPU architectures which natively support all the operations
which kernel user helpers would normally provide, and must be enabled
with caution.

Move the machine vector stubs into the page above the vector page,
which we can prevent from being visible to userspace. Also move
the reset stub, and place the swi vector at a location that the
'ldr' can get to it.
This hides pointers into the kernel which could give valuable
information to attackers, and reduces the number of exploitable
instructions at a fixed address.

Commit 93dc688 (ARM: 7684/1: errata: Workaround for Cortex-A15 erratum 798181 (TLBI/DSB operations)) causes the following undefined instruction error on a mx53 (Cortex-A8):
Internal error: Oops - undefined instruction: 0 [#1] SMP ARM
CPU: 0 PID: 275 Comm: modprobe Not tainted 3.11.0-rc2-next-20130722-00009-g9b0f371 #881

PC is at check_and_switch_context+0x17c/0x4d0
LR is at check_and_switch_context+0xdc/0x4d0
This problem happens because check_and_switch_context() calls dummy_flush_tlb_a15_erratum() without checking if we are really running on a Cortex-A15 or not.
To avoid this issue, only call dummy_flush_tlb_a15_erratum() inside
check_and_switch_context() if erratum_a15_798181() returns true, which means that we are really running on a Cortex-A15.

When map_lowmem() runs, and processes a memory bank whose start or end
is not section-aligned, memory must be allocated to store the 2nd-level
page tables. Those allocations are made by calling memblock_alloc().
At this point, the only memory that is free *and* mapped is memory which
has already been mapped by map_lowmem() itself. For this reason, we must
calculate the first point at which map_lowmem() will need to allocate
memory, and set the memblock allocation limit to a lower address, so that
memblock_alloc() is guaranteed to return memory that is already mapped.
This patch enhances sanity_check_meminfo() to calculate that memory
address, and pass it to memblock_set_current_limit(), rather than just
assuming the limit is arm_lowmem_limit.
The algorithm applied is:
* Default memblock_limit to arm_lowmem_limit in the absence of any other
limit; arm_lowmem_limit is the highest memory that is mapped by
map_lowmem().
* While walking the list of memblocks, if the start of a block is not
aligned, 2nd-level page tables will need to be allocated to map the
first few pages of the block. Hence, the memblock_limit must be before
the start of the block.
* Similarly, if the end of any block is not aligned, 2nd-level page
tables will need to be allocated to map the last few pages of the
block. Hence, the memblock_limit must point at the end of the block,
rounded down to section-alignment.
* The memory blocks are assumed to be sorted in address order, so the
first unaligned block start or end is used to set the limit.
With this algorithm, the start or end of almost any bank can be non-
section-aligned. The only exception is that the start of bank 0 must
be section-aligned, since otherwise memory would need to be allocated
when mapping the start of bank 0, which occurs before any free memory
is mapped.

Commit ae8a8b9553bd ("ARM: 7691/1: mm: kill unused TLB_CAN_READ_FROM_L1_CACHE
and use ALT_SMP instead") added early function returns for page table
cache flushing operations on ARMv7 SMP CPUs.
Unfortunately, when targetting Thumb-2, these `mov pc, lr' sequences
assemble to 2 bytes which can lead to corruption of the instruction
stream after code patching.
This patch fixes the alternates to use wide (32-bit) instructions for
Thumb-2, therefore ensuring that the patching code works correctly.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
and are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
the arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
related content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get
rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
This removes all the ARM uses of the __cpuinit macros from C code,
and all __CPUINIT from assembly code. It also had two ".previous"
section statements that were paired off against __CPUINIT
(aka .section ".cpuinit.text") that also get removed here.

Failure to add the mapping created in debug_ll_io_init() can lead
to the BUG_ON() triggering in lib/ioremap.c:27 if the static
virtual address decided for the debug_ll mapping overlaps with
another mapping that is created later. This happens because the
generic ioremap code has no idea there is a mapping there and it
tries to place a mapping in the same location and blows up when
it sees that there is a pte already present.

2) A previous patch has disabled memory poison for initmem on s390
by mistake, so restore to the original behavior.

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"This contains the usual updates from other people (listed below) and
the usual random muddle of miscellaneous ARM updates which cover some
low priority bug fixes and performance improvements.
I've started to put the pull request wording into the merge commits,
which are:
- NoMMU stuff:
This includes the following series sent earlier to the list:
- nommu-fixes
- R7 Support
- MPU support
I've left out the ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM/!MMU stuff that Arnd and I
were discussing today until we've reached a conclusion/that's had
some more review.
This is rebased (and re-tested) on your devel-stable branch because
otherwise there were going to be conflicts with Uwe's V7M work now
that you've merged that. I've included the fix for limiting MPU to
CPU_V7.
- Huge page support
These changes bring both HugeTLB support and Transparent HugePage
(THP) support to ARM. Only long descriptors (LPAE) are supported
in this series.
The code has been tested on an Arndale board (Exynos 5250).
- LPAE updates
Please pull these miscellaneous LPAE fixes I've been collecting for
a while now for 3.11. They've been tested and reviewed by quite a
few people, and most of the patches are pretty trivial. -- Will Deacon.
- arch_timer cleanups
Please pull these arch_timer cleanups I've been holding onto for a
while. They're the same as my last posting, but have been rebased
to v3.10-rc3.
- mpidr linearisation (multiprocessor id register - identifies which
CPU number we are in the system)
This patch series that implements MPIDR linearization through a
simple hashing algorithm and updates current cpu_{suspend}/{resume}
code to use the newly created hash structures to retrieve context
pointers. It represents a stepping stone for the implementation of

Pull ARM SoC specific changes from Arnd Bergmann:
"These changes are all to SoC-specific code, a total of 33 branches on
17 platforms were pulled into this. Like last time, Renesas sh-mobile
is now the platform with the most changes, followed by OMAP and
EXYNOS.
Two new platforms, TI Keystone and Rockchips RK3xxx are added in this
branch, both containing almost no platform specific code at all, since
they are using generic subsystem interfaces for clocks, pinctrl,
interrupts etc. The device drivers are getting merged through the
respective subsystem maintainer trees.
One more SoC (u300) is now multiplatform capable and several others
(shmobile, exynos, msm, integrator, kirkwood, clps711x) are moving
towards that goal with this series but need more work.
Also noteworthy is the work on PCI here, which is traditionally part
of the SoC specific code. With the changes done by Thomas Petazzoni,
we can now more easily have PCI host controller drivers as loadable
modules and keep them separate from the platform code in
drivers/pci/host. This has already led to the discovery that three
platforms (exynos, spear and imx) are actually using an identical PCIe
host controller and will be able to share a driver once support for
spear and imx is added."

do_page_fault was used instead.
Unfortunately, do_sect_fault remains defined but not used for LPAE code

Looking into the active_asids array is not enough, as we also need
to look into the reserved_asids array (they both represent processes
that are currently running).
Also, not holding the ASID allocator lock is racy, as another CPU
could schedule that process and trigger a rollover, making the erratum
workaround miss an IPI.
Exposing this outside of context.c is a little ugly on the side, so
let's define a new entry point that the erratum workaround can call
to obtain the cpumask.

On a CPU that never ran anything, both the active and reserved ASID
fields are set to zero. In this case the ASID_TO_IDX() macro will
return -1, which is not a very useful value to index a bitmap.
Instead of trying to offset the ASID so that ASID #1 is actually
bit 0 in the asid_map bitmap, just always ignore bit 0 and start
the search from bit 1. This makes the code a bit more readable,
and without risk of OoB access.

When a CPU is running a process, the ASID for that process is
held in a per-CPU variable (the "active ASIDs" array). When
the ASID allocator handles a rollover, it copies the active
ASIDs into a "reserved ASIDs" array to ensure that a process
currently running on another CPU will continue to run unaffected.
The active array is zero-ed to indicate that a rollover occurred.
Because of this mechanism, a reserved ASID is only remembered for
a single rollover. A subsequent rollover will completely refill
the reserved ASIDs array.
In a severely oversubscribed environment where a CPU can be
prevented from running for extended periods of time (think virtual
machines), the above has a horrible side effect:
[P{a} denotes process P running with ASID a]
CPU-0 CPU-1
A{x} [active = <x 0>]
[suspended] runs B{y} [active = <x y>]
[rollover:
active = <0 0>
reserved = <x y>]
runs B{y} [active = <0 y>
reserved = <x y>]
[rollover:
active = <0 0>
reserved = <0 y>]
runs C{x} [active = <0 x>]
[resumes]
runs A{x}
At that stage, both A and C have the same ASID, with deadly
consequences.
The fix is to preserve reserved ASIDs across rollovers if
the CPU doesn't have an active ASID when the rollover occurs.

This commit fixes the regression on Armada 370 (the kernal hang during
boot) introduced by the commit: "ARM: 7691/1: mm: kill unused
TLB_CAN_READ_FROM_L1_CACHE and use ALT_SMP instead".
When coming out of either a Wait for Interrupt (WFI) or a Wait for
Event (WFE) IDLE states, a specific timing sensitivity exists between
the retiring WFI/WFE instructions and the newly issued subsequent
instructions. This sensitivity can result in a CPU hang scenario. The
workaround is to insert either a Data Synchronization Barrier (DSB) or
Data Memory Barrier (DMB) command immediately after the WFI/WFE
instruction.
This commit was based on the work of Lior Amsalem, but heavily
modified to apply the errata fix dynamically according to the
processor type thanks to the suggestions of Russell King and Nicolas
Pitre.

As it was already suggested by Russell King and Arnd Bergmann:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/5/16/133
moxart and gemini seem to be the only platforms using CPU_FA526,
and instead of pointing arm_pm_idle to an empty function from
platform code, it makes sense to remove WFI code from the processor
specific idle function.
Applies to arm-soc/for-next (and 3.10-rc1).
Changes since v1:
1. remove WFI but make sure cpu_fa526_do_idle do not fall through
to cpu_fa526_dcache_clean_area
Note: moxart boots and prints to UART without this patch, but input is broken.

Much like with the MMU, MPU initialisation is performed in two stages; the
first in the pre-C world and the 'real' initialisation during arch setup.
This patch wires in previously added MPU initialisation functions so that
the whole of memory is mapped with the appropriate region properties for
'normal' RAM (the appropriate properties depend on whether the system is
SMP).
Stub initialisation functions are added for the case that there MPU support

This patch adds new functions for probing and initialising the ARMv7
PMSA-compliant MPU.
These use the pre-defined and reserved MPU_PROBE_REGION for establishing
properties of the MPU, which is necessary because certain probe operations
require modifying region properties and reading back the results.
This patch also introduces a minimal sanity_check_meminfo_mpu function, that
ensures that the memory set-up passed to the kernel can be used in conjunction
with the MPU. The base address of a region must be aligned to the region size,
otherwise behavior is unpredictable and region sizes can only be specified as a
power-of-two. To simplify the satisfaction of these requirements this
implementation currently enforces that all memory is contiguous from
PHYS_OFFSET, merging banks that are contiguous but passed in separately.
The functions are added in this patch but wired in to the boot process later
in the series.

Currently flush_dcache_page() thinks pages as non-mapped if
mapping_mapped(mapping) return false. This approach is very
coase:
- mmap on part of file may cause all pages backed on
the file being thought as mmaped
- file-backed pages aren't mapped into user space actually
if the memory mmaped on the file isn't accessed
This patch uses page_mapped() to decide if the page has been
mapped.
From the attached test code, I find there is much performance
improvement(>25%) when accessing page caches via read under this
situations, so memcpy benefits a lot from not flushing cache
under this situation.
