Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas: "Here are the main arm64 updates for 4.6. There are some relatively intrusive changes to support KASLR, the reworking of the kernel virtual memory layout and initial page table creation. Summary: - Initial page table creation reworked to avoid breaking large block mappings (huge pages) into smaller ones. The ARM architecture requires break-before-make in such cases to avoid TLB conflicts but that's not always possible on live page tables - Kernel virtual memory layout: the kernel image is no longer linked to the bottom of the linear mapping (PAGE_OFFSET) but at the bottom of the vmalloc space, allowing the kernel to be loaded (nearly) anywhere in physical RAM - Kernel ASLR: position independent kernel Image and modules being randomly mapped in the vmalloc space with the randomness is provided by UEFI (efi_get_random_bytes() patches merged via the arm64 tree, acked by Matt Fleming) - Implement relative exception tables for arm64, required by KASLR (initial code for ARCH_HAS_RELATIVE_EXTABLE added to lib/extable.c but actual x86 conversion to deferred to 4.7 because of the merge dependencies) - Support for the User Access Override feature of ARMv8.2: this allows uaccess functions (get_user etc.) to be implemented using LDTR/STTR instructions. Such instructions, when run by the kernel, perform unprivileged accesses adding an extra level of protection. The set_fs() macro is used to "upgrade" such instruction to privileged accesses via the UAO bit - Half-precision floating point support (part of ARMv8.2) - Optimisations for CPUs with or without a hardware prefetcher (using run-time code patching) - copy_page performance improvement to deal with 128 bytes at a time - Sanity checks on the CPU capabilities (via CPUID) to prevent incompatible secondary CPUs from being brought up (e.g. weird big.LITTLE configurations) - valid_user_regs() reworked for better sanity check of the sigcontext information (restored pstate information) - ACPI parking protocol implementation - CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA enabled by default - VDSO code marked as read-only - DEBUG_PAGEALLOC support - ARCH_HAS_UBSAN_SANITIZE_ALL enabled - Erratum workaround Cavium ThunderX SoC - set_pte_at() fix for PROT_NONE mappings - Code clean-ups" * tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (99 commits) arm64: kasan: Fix zero shadow mapping overriding kernel image shadow arm64: kasan: Use actual memory node when populating the kernel image shadow arm64: Update PTE_RDONLY in set_pte_at() for PROT_NONE permission arm64: Fix misspellings in comments. arm64: efi: add missing frame pointer assignment arm64: make mrs_s prefixing implicit in read_cpuid arm64: enable CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA by default arm64: Rework valid_user_regs arm64: mm: check at build time that PAGE_OFFSET divides the VA space evenly arm64: KVM: Move kvm_call_hyp back to its original localtion arm64: mm: treat memstart_addr as a signed quantity arm64: mm: list kernel sections in order arm64: lse: deal with clobbered IP registers after branch via PLT arm64: mm: dump: Use VA_START directly instead of private LOWEST_ADDR arm64: kconfig: add submenu for 8.2 architectural features arm64: kernel: acpi: fix ioremap in ACPI parking protocol cpu_postboot arm64: Add support for Half precision floating point arm64: Remove fixmap include fragility arm64: Add workaround for Cavium erratum 27456 arm64: mm: Mark .rodata as RO ...

arm64: KVM: Move most of the fault decoding to C

2016-02-29T18:34:18+00:00

The fault decoding process (including computing the IPA in the case of a permission fault) would be much better done in C code, as we have a reasonable infrastructure to deal with the VHE/non-VHE differences. Let's move the whole thing to C, including the workaround for erratum 834220, and just patch the odd ESR_EL2 access remaining in hyp-entry.S.

arm64: Handle early CPU boot failures

2016-02-25T10:32:23+00:00

A secondary CPU could fail to come online due to insufficient capabilities and could simply die or loop in the kernel. e.g, a CPU with no support for the selected kernel PAGE_SIZE loops in kernel with MMU turned off. or a hotplugged CPU which doesn't have one of the advertised system capability will die during the activation. There is no way to synchronise the status of the failing CPU back to the master. This patch solves the issue by adding a field to the secondary_data which can be updated by the failing CPU. If the secondary CPU fails even before turning the MMU on, it updates the status in a special variable reserved in the head.txt section to make sure that the update can be cache invalidated safely without possible sharing of cache write back granule. Here are the possible states : -1. CPU_MMU_OFF - Initial value set by the master CPU, this value indicates that the CPU could not turn the MMU on, hence the status could not be reliably updated in the secondary_data. Instead, the CPU has updated the status @ __early_cpu_boot_status. 0. CPU_BOOT_SUCCESS - CPU has booted successfully. 1. CPU_KILL_ME - CPU has invoked cpu_ops->die, indicating the master CPU to synchronise by issuing a cpu_ops->cpu_kill. 2. CPU_STUCK_IN_KERNEL - CPU couldn't invoke die(), instead is looping in the kernel. This information could be used by say, kexec to check if it is really safe to do a kexec reboot. 3. CPU_PANIC_KERNEL - CPU detected some serious issues which requires kernel to crash immediately. The secondary CPU cannot call panic() until it has initialised the GIC. This flag can be used to instruct the master to do so.

arm64: KVM: Turn system register numbers to an enum

2015-12-14T11:30:43+00:00

Having the system register numbers as #defines has been a pain since day one, as the ordering is pretty fragile, and moving things around leads to renumbering and epic conflict resolutions. Now that we're mostly acessing the sysreg file in C, an enum is a much better type to use, and we can clean things up a bit. Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier Acked-by: Christoffer Dall

arm64: mm: rewrite ASID allocator and MM context-switching code

2015-10-07T10:55:41+00:00

Our current switch_mm implementation suffers from a number of problems: (1) The ASID allocator relies on IPIs to synchronise the CPUs on a rollover event (2) Because of (1), we cannot allocate ASIDs with interrupts disabled and therefore make use of a TIF_SWITCH_MM flag to postpone the actual switch to finish_arch_post_lock_switch (3) We run context switch with a reserved (invalid) TTBR0 value, even though the ASID and pgd are updated atomically (4) We take a global spinlock (cpu_asid_lock) during context-switch (5) We use h/w broadcast TLB operations when they are not required (e.g. in flush_context) This patch addresses these problems by rewriting the ASID algorithm to match the bitmap-based arch/arm/ implementation more closely. This in turn allows us to remove much of the complications surrounding switch_mm, including the ugly thread flag.

KVM: arm64: introduce vcpu->arch.debug_ptr

2015-07-21T11:50:25+00:00

This introduces a level of indirection for the debug registers. Instead of using the sys_regs[] directly we store registers in a structure in the vcpu. The new kvm_arm_reset_debug_ptr() sets the debug ptr to the guest context. Because we no longer give the sys_regs offset for the sys_reg_desc->reg field, but instead the index into a debug-specific struct we need to add a number of additional trap functions for each register. Also as the generic generic user-space access code no longer works we have introduced a new pair of function pointers to the sys_reg_desc structure to override the generic code when needed.
