When running on a system with a GICv3, we currenly don't allow the guest
to access the system register interface of the GICv3. We do this by
clearing the ICC_SRE_EL2.Enable, which causes all guest accesses to
ICC_SRE_EL1 to trap to EL2 and causes all guest accesses to other ICC_
registers to cause an undefined exception in the guest.
However, we currently don't handle the trap of guest accesses to
ICC_SRE_EL1 and will spill out a warning. The trap just needs to handle
the access as RAZ/WI, and a guest that tries to prod this register and
set ICC_SRE_EL1.SRE=1, must read back the value (which Linux already
does) to see if it succeeded, and will thus observe that ICC_SRE_EL1.SRE
was not set.
Add the simple trap handler in the sorted table of the system registers.

Every other architecture with permanent fixed addresses has
FIX_HOLE as the first entry. This seems to be designed as a
debugging aid but there are a couple of side effects of not
having FIX_HOLE:
- If the first fixed address is 0, fix_to_virt -> virt_to_fix
triggers a BUG_ON for the virtual address being equal to
FIXADDR_TOP
- fix_to_virt may return a value outside of FIXADDR_START
and FIXADDR_TOP which may look like a bug to a developer.
Match up with other architectures and make everything clearer
by adding FIX_HOLE.

It seems that Cortex-A53 r0p4 added support for AIFSR and ADFSR, and
ID_MMFR0.AuxReg has been updated accordingly to report this fact. As
Cortex-A53 could be paired with CPUs which do not implement these
registers (e.g. all current revisions of Cortex-A57), this may trigger a
sanity check failure at boot.
The AuxReg value describes the availability of the ACTLR, AIFSR, and
ADFSR registers, which are only of use to 32-bit guest OSs, and have
IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED contents. Given the nature of these registers it
is likely that KVM will need to trap accesses regardless of whether the
CPUs are heterogeneous.
This patch masks out the ID_MMFR0.AuxReg value from the sanity checks,
preventing spurious warnings at boot time.

The only requirement the scheduler has on cluster IDs is that they must
be unique. When enumerating the topology based on MPIDR information the
kernel currently generates cluster IDs by using the first level of
affinity above the core ID (either level one or two depending on if the
core has multiple threads) however the ARMv8 architecture allows for up
to three levels of affinity. This means that an ARMv8 system may
contain cores which have MPIDRs identical other than affinity level
three which with current code will cause us to report multiple cores
with the same identification to the scheduler in violation of its
uniqueness requirement.
Ensure that we do not violate the scheduler requirements on systems that
uses all the affinity levels by incorporating both affinity levels two
and three into the cluser ID when the cores are not threaded.
While no currently known hardware uses multi-level clusters it is better
to program defensively, this will help ease bringup of systems that have
them and will ensure that things like distribution install media do not
need to be respun to replace kernels in order to deploy such systems.
In the worst case the system will work but perform suboptimally until a
kernel modified to handle the new topology better is installed, in the
best case this will be an adequate description of such topologies for
the scheduler to perform well.

After each CPU has been started, we iterate through a list of
CPU features or bugs to detect CPUs which need (or could benefit
from) kernel code patches.
For each feature/bug there is a function which checks if that
particular CPU is affected. We will later provide some more generic
functions for common things like testing for certain MIDR ranges.
We do this for every CPU to cover big.LITTLE systems properly as
well.
If a certain feature/bug has been detected, the capability bit will
be set, so that later the call to apply_alternatives() will trigger

Translation faults that occur due to the input address being outside
of the address range mapped by the relevant base register are reported
as level 0 faults in ESR.DFSC.
If the faulting access cannot be resolved by the kernel (e.g. because
it is not mapped by a vma), then we report "input address range fault"
on the console. This was fine until we added support for 48-bit VAs,
which actually place PGDs at level 0 and can trigger faults for invalid
addresses that are within the range of the page tables.
This patch changes the string to report "level 0 translation fault",
which is far less confusing.

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 generic this_cpu operations disable interrupts to ensure that the
requested operation is protected from pre-emption. For arm64, this is
overkill and can hurt throughput and latency.
This patch provides arm64 specific implementations for the this_cpu

monitor or atomic operations as appropriate.
The following operations are implemented: add, add_return, and, or,
read, write, xchg. We also wire up a cmpxchg implementation from
cmpxchg.h.

We currently allocate different levels of page tables with a variety of
differing flags, and the PGALLOC_GFP flags, intended for use when
allocating any level of page table, are only used for ptes in
pte_alloc_one. On x86, PGALLOC_GFP is used for all page table
allocations.
Currently the major differences are:
* __GFP_NOTRACK -- Needed to ensure page tables are always accessible in
the presence of kmemcheck to prevent recursive faults. Currently
kmemcheck cannot be selected for arm64.
* __GFP_REPEAT -- Causes the allocator to try to reclaim pages and retry
upon a failure to allocate.
* __GFP_ZERO -- Sometimes passed explicitly, sometimes zalloc variants
are used.
While we've no encountered issues so far, it would be preferable to be
consistent. This patch ensures all levels of table are allocated in the
same manner, with PGALLOC_GFP.

Since commit 8a0a9bd4db63 ('random: make get_random_int() more

so comment and hack introduced in mmap_rnd() as part of commit
1d18c47c735e ('arm64: MMU fault handling and page table management')
are incorrects.
Commit 1d18c47c735e seems to use the same hack introduced by
commit a5adc91a4b44 ('powerpc: Ensure random space between stack

But both architectures were cleaned up as part of commit

So the present patch removes the comment and the hack around

On architectures with hardware broadcasting of TLB invalidation messages
, it makes sense to reduce the range of the mmu_gather structure when
unmapping page ranges based on the dirty address information passed to
tlb_remove_tlb_entry.
arm64 already does this by directly manipulating the start/end fields
of the gather structure, but this confuses the generic code which
does not expect these fields to change and can end up calculating
invalid, negative ranges when forcing a flush in zap_pte_range.
This patch moves the minimal range calculation out of the arm64 code
and into the generic implementation, simplifying zap_pte_range in the
process (which no longer needs to care about start/end, since they will
point to the appropriate ranges already). With the range being tracked
by core code, the need_flush flag is dropped in favour of checking that
the end of the range has actually been set.

(2) They introduce an implicit dependency between each instruction, as
the sp has to be updated in order to resolve the address of the
next access.
This patch removes the push/pop instructions from our kernel entry/exit
macros in favour of ldp/stp plus offset.

Using an explicit adr instruction to set the link register to point at
ret_fast_syscall/ret_to_user can defeat branch and return stack predictors.
Instead, use the standard calling instructions (bl, blr) and have an
unconditional branch as the following instruction.

Commit d7a49086f263164a (arm64: cpuinfo: print info for all CPUs)
attempted to clean up /proc/cpuinfo, but due to concerns regarding
further changes was reverted in commit 5e39977edf6500fd (Revert "arm64:
cpuinfo: print info for all CPUs").
There are two major issues with the arm64 /proc/cpuinfo format
currently:
* The "Features" line describes (only) the 64-bit hwcaps, which is
problematic for some 32-bit applications which attempt to parse it. As
the same names are used for analogous ISA features (e.g. aes) despite
these generally being architecturally unrelated, it is not possible to
simply append the 64-bit and 32-bit hwcaps in a manner that might not
be misleading to some applications.
Various potential solutions have appeared in vendor kernels. Typically
the format of the Features line varies depending on whether the task
is 32-bit.
* Information is only printed regarding a single CPU. This does not
match the ARM format, and does not provide sufficient information in
big.LITTLE systems where CPUs are heterogeneous. The CPU information
printed is queried from the current CPU's registers, which is racy
w.r.t. cross-cpu migration.
This patch attempts to solve these issues. The following changes are
made:
* When a task with a LINUX32 personality attempts to read /proc/cpuinfo,
the "Features" line contains the decoded 32-bit hwcaps, as with the
arm port. Otherwise, the decoded 64-bit hwcaps are shown. This aligns
with the behaviour of COMPAT_UTS_MACHINE and COMPAT_ELF_PLATFORM. In
the absense of compat support, the Features line is empty.
The set of hwcaps injected into a task's auxval are unaffected.
* Properties are printed per-cpu, as with the ARM port. The per-cpu
information is queried from pre-recorded cpu information (as used by
the sanity checks).
* As with the previous attempt at fixing up /proc/cpuinfo, the hardware
field is removed. The only users so far are 32-bit applications tied
to particular boards, so no portable applications should be affected,
and this should prevent future tying to particular boards.
The following differences remain:
* No model_name is printed, as this cannot be queried from the hardware
and cannot be provided in a stable fashion. Use of the CPU
{implementor,variant,part,revision} fields is sufficient to identify a
CPU and is portable across arm and arm64.
* The following system-wide properties are not provided, as they are not
possible to provide generally. Programs relying on these are already
tied to particular (32-bit only) boards:
- Hardware
- Revision
- Serial
No software has yet been identified for which these remaining
differences are problematic.
