arm64/boot: Enable EL2 requirements for FEAT_PMUv3p9

2025-04-25T08:48:04+00:00

commit 858c7bfcb35e1100b58bb63c9f562d86e09418d9 upstream. FEAT_PMUv3p9 registers such as PMICNTR_EL0, PMICFILTR_EL0, and PMUACR_EL1 access from EL1 requires appropriate EL2 fine grained trap configuration via FEAT_FGT2 based trap control registers HDFGRTR2_EL2 and HDFGWTR2_EL2. Otherwise such register accesses will result in traps into EL2. Add a new helper __init_el2_fgt2() which initializes FEAT_FGT2 based fine grained trap control registers HDFGRTR2_EL2 and HDFGWTR2_EL2 (setting the bits nPMICNTR_EL0, nPMICFILTR_EL0 and nPMUACR_EL1) to enable access into PMICNTR_EL0, PMICFILTR_EL0, and PMUACR_EL1 registers. Also update booting.rst with SCR_EL3.FGTEn2 requirement for all FEAT_FGT2 based registers to be accessible in EL2.

arm64: Filter out SVE hwcaps when FEAT_SVE isn't implemented

2025-02-17T09:05:04+00:00

commit 064737920bdbca86df91b96aed256e88018fef3a upstream. The hwcaps code that exposes SVE features to userspace only considers ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1, while this is only valid when ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.SVE advertises that SVE is actually supported. The expectations are that when ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.SVE is 0, the ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1 register is also 0. So far, so good. Things become a bit more interesting if the HW implements SME. In this case, a few ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1 fields indicate *SME* features. And these fields overlap with their SVE interpretations. But the architecture says that the SME and SVE feature sets must match, so we're still hunky-dory. This goes wrong if the HW implements SME, but not SVE. In this case, we end-up advertising some SVE features to userspace, even if the HW has none. That's because we never consider whether SVE is actually implemented. Oh well. Fix it by restricting all SVE capabilities to ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.SVE being non-zero. The HWCAPS documentation is amended to reflect the actually checks performed by the kernel.

ACPI/IORT: Add PMCG platform information for HiSilicon HIP09A

[ Upstream commit c2b46ae022704a2d845e59461fa24431ad627022 ] HiSilicon HIP09A platforms using the same SMMU PMCG with HIP09 and thus suffers the same erratum.

irqchip/gicv3-its: Add workaround for hip09 ITS erratum 162100801

[ Upstream commit f82e62d470cc990ebd9d691f931dd418e4e9cea9 ] When enabling GICv4.1 in hip09, VMAPP fails to clear some caches during the unmap operation, which can causes vSGIs to be lost. To fix the issue, invalidate the related vPE cache through GICR_INVALLR after VMOVP.

arm64: errata: Expand speculative SSBS workaround once more

2024-10-01T11:46:55+00:00

A number of Arm Ltd CPUs suffer from errata whereby an MSR to the SSBS special-purpose register does not affect subsequent speculative instructions, permitting speculative store bypassing for a window of time. We worked around this for a number of CPUs in commits: * 7187bb7d0b5c7dfa ("arm64: errata: Add workaround for Arm errata 3194386 and 3312417") * 75b3c43eab594bfb ("arm64: errata: Expand speculative SSBS workaround") * 145502cac7ea70b5 ("arm64: errata: Expand speculative SSBS workaround (again)") Since then, a (hopefully final) batch of updates have been published, with two more affected CPUs. For the affected CPUs the existing mitigation is sufficient, as described in their respective Software Developer Errata Notice (SDEN) documents: * Cortex-A715 (MP148) SDEN v15.0, erratum 3456084 https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-2148827/1500/ * Neoverse-N3 (MP195) SDEN v5.0, erratum 3456111 https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-3050973/0500/ Enable the existing mitigation by adding the relevant MIDRs to erratum_spec_ssbs_list, and update silicon-errata.rst and the Kconfig text accordingly.
