Given that lowlevel drivers usually cannot implement exactly what a
consumer requests with pwm_apply_state() there is some rounding
involved.
pwm_get_state() returns the setting that was requested most recently by
the consumer (opposed to what was actually implemented in hardware in
reply to the last request). Clarify this in the function kerneldoc.

When trying to debug program, the user often needs to
dump large parts of the device's DRAM, which can reach to tens of GBs.
Because reading from the device's internal memory through the PCI BAR
is extremely slow, the debug can take hours.
Instead, we can provide the user to copy data through one of the DMA
engines. This will make the operation much faster.
Currently, only GAUDI is supported.
In GAUDI, we need to find a PCI DMA engine that is IDLE and set the
DMA as secured to be able to bypass our MMU as we currently don't
map the temporary buffer to the MMU.
Example bash one-line to dump entire HBM to file (~2 minutes):
for (( i=0x0; i < 0x800000000; i+=0x8000000 )); do \
printf '0x%x\n' $i | sudo tee /sys/kernel/debug/habanalabs/hl0/addr ; \
echo 0x8000000 | sudo tee /sys/kernel/debug/habanalabs/hl0/dma_size ; \
sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/habanalabs/hl0/data_dma >> hbm.txt ; done

CONFIG_ARM64_VHE was introduced with ARMv8.1 (some 7 years ago),
and has been enabled by default for almost all that time.
Given that newer systems that are VHE capable are finally becoming
available, and that some systems are even incapable of not running VHE,
drop the configuration altogether.
Anyone willing to stick to non-VHE on VHE hardware for obscure
reasons should use the 'kvm-arm.mode=nvhe' command-line option.

Currently we require that software at a higher exception level initialise
all registers at the exception level the kernel will be entered prior to
starting the kernel in order to ensure that there is nothing uninitialised
which could result in an UNKNOWN state while running the kernel. The
expectation is that the software running at the highest exception levels
will be tightly coupled to the system and can ensure that all available
features are appropriately initialised and that the kernel can initialise
anything else.
There is a gap here in the case where new registers are added to lower
exception levels that require initialisation but the kernel does not yet
understand them. Extend the requirement to also include exception levels
below the one where the kernel is entered to cover this.

On newer Microsoft Surface models (specifically 7th-generation, i.e.
Surface Pro 7, Surface Book 3, Surface Laptop 3, and Surface Laptop Go),
battery and AC status/information is no longer handled via standard ACPI
devices, but instead directly via the Surface System Aggregator Module
(SSAM), i.e. the embedded controller on those devices.
While on previous generation models, battery status is also handled via
SSAM, an ACPI shim was present to translate the standard ACPI battery
interface to SSAM requests. The SSAM interface itself, which is modeled
closely after the ACPI interface, has not changed.
This commit introduces a new SSAM client device driver to support
battery status/information via the aforementioned interface on said
Surface models. It is in parts based on the standard ACPI battery
driver.

This provides the ability for architectures to enable kernel stack base
address offset randomization. This feature is controlled by the boot
param "randomize_kstack_offset=on/off", with its default value set by
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_KSTACK_OFFSET_DEFAULT.
This feature is based on the original idea from the last public release
of PaX's RANDKSTACK feature: https://pax.grsecurity.net/docs/randkstack.txt
All the credit for the original idea goes to the PaX team. Note that
the design and implementation of this upstream randomize_kstack_offset
feature differs greatly from the RANDKSTACK feature (see below).
Reasoning for the feature:
This feature aims to make harder the various stack-based attacks that
rely on deterministic stack structure. We have had many such attacks in
past (just to name few):
https://jon.oberheide.org/files/infiltrate12-thestackisback.pdf
https://jon.oberheide.org/files/stackjacking-infiltrate11.pdf
https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2016/06/exploiting-recursion-in-linux-kernel_20.html
As Linux kernel stack protections have been constantly improving
(vmap-based stack allocation with guard pages, removal of thread_info,
STACKLEAK), attackers have had to find new ways for their exploits
to work. They have done so, continuing to rely on the kernel's stack
determinism, in situations where VMAP_STACK and THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK_STRUCT
were not relevant. For example, the following recent attacks would have
been hampered if the stack offset was non-deterministic between syscalls:
https://repositorio-aberto.up.pt/bitstream/10216/125357/2/374717.pdf
(page 70: targeting the pt_regs copy with linear stack overflow)
https://a13xp0p0v.github.io/2020/02/15/CVE-2019-18683.html
(leaked stack address from one syscall as a target during next syscall)
The main idea is that since the stack offset is randomized on each system
call, it is harder for an attack to reliably land in any particular place
on the thread stack, even with address exposures, as the stack base will
change on the next syscall. Also, since randomization is performed after
placing pt_regs, the ptrace-based approach[1] to discover the randomized
offset during a long-running syscall should not be possible.
Design description:
During most of the kernel's execution, it runs on the "thread stack",
which is pretty deterministic in its structure: it is fixed in size,
and on every entry from userspace to kernel on a syscall the thread
stack starts construction from an address fetched from the per-cpu
cpu_current_top_of_stack variable. The first element to be pushed to the
thread stack is the pt_regs struct that stores all required CPU registers
and syscall parameters. Finally the specific syscall function is called,
with the stack being used as the kernel executes the resulting request.
The goal of randomize_kstack_offset feature is to add a random offset
after the pt_regs has been pushed to the stack and before the rest of the
thread stack is used during the syscall processing, and to change it every
time a process issues a syscall. The source of randomness is currently
architecture-defined (but x86 is using the low byte of rdtsc()). Future
improvements for different entropy sources is possible, but out of scope
for this patch. Further more, to add more unpredictability, new offsets
are chosen at the end of syscalls (the timing of which should be less
easy to measure from userspace than at syscall entry time), and stored
in a per-CPU variable, so that the life of the value does not stay
explicitly tied to a single task.
As suggested by Andy Lutomirski, the offset is added using alloca()
and an empty asm() statement with an output constraint, since it avoids
changes to assembly syscall entry code, to the unwinder, and provides
correct stack alignment as defined by the compiler.
In order to make this available by default with zero performance impact
for those that don't want it, it is boot-time selectable with static
branches. This way, if the overhead is not wanted, it can just be
left turned off with no performance impact.
The generated assembly for x86_64 with GCC looks like this:
...
ffffffff81003977: 65 8b 05 02 ea 00 7f mov %gs:0x7f00ea02(%rip),%eax
# 12380 <kstack_offset>
ffffffff8100397e: 25 ff 03 00 00 and $0x3ff,%eax
ffffffff81003983: 48 83 c0 0f add $0xf,%rax
ffffffff81003987: 25 f8 07 00 00 and $0x7f8,%eax
ffffffff8100398c: 48 29 c4 sub %rax,%rsp
ffffffff8100398f: 48 8d 44 24 0f lea 0xf(%rsp),%rax
ffffffff81003994: 48 83 e0 f0 and $0xfffffffffffffff0,%rax
...
As a result of the above stack alignment, this patch introduces about
5 bits of randomness after pt_regs is spilled to the thread stack on
x86_64, and 6 bits on x86_32 (since its has 1 fewer bit required for
stack alignment). The amount of entropy could be adjusted based on how
much of the stack space we wish to trade for security.
My measure of syscall performance overhead (on x86_64):
lmbench: /usr/lib/lmbench/bin/x86_64-linux-gnu/lat_syscall -N 10000 null
randomize_kstack_offset=y Simple syscall: 0.7082 microseconds
randomize_kstack_offset=n Simple syscall: 0.7016 microseconds
So, roughly 0.9% overhead growth for a no-op syscall, which is very
manageable. And for people that don't want this, it's off by default.
There are two gotchas with using the alloca() trick. First,
compilers that have Stack Clash protection (-fstack-clash-protection)
enabled by default (e.g. Ubuntu[3]) add pagesize stack probes to
any dynamic stack allocations. While the randomization offset is
always less than a page, the resulting assembly would still contain
(unreachable!) probing routines, bloating the resulting assembly. To
avoid this, -fno-stack-clash-protection is unconditionally added to
the kernel Makefile since this is the only dynamic stack allocation in
the kernel (now that VLAs have been removed) and it is provably safe
from Stack Clash style attacks.
The second gotcha with alloca() is a negative interaction with
-fstack-protector*, in that it sees the alloca() as an array allocation,
which triggers the unconditional addition of the stack canary function
pre/post-amble which slows down syscalls regardless of the static
branch. In order to avoid adding this unneeded check and its associated
performance impact, architectures need to carefully remove uses of
-fstack-protector-strong (or -fstack-protector) in the compilation units
that use the add_random_kstack() macro and to audit the resulting stack
mitigation coverage (to make sure no desired coverage disappears). No
change is visible for this on x86 because the stack protector is already
unconditionally disabled for the compilation unit, but the change is
required on arm64. There is, unfortunately, no attribute that can be
used to disable stack protector for specific functions.
Comparison to PaX RANDKSTACK feature:
The RANDKSTACK feature randomizes the location of the stack start
(cpu_current_top_of_stack), i.e. including the location of pt_regs
structure itself on the stack. Initially this patch followed the same
approach, but during the recent discussions[2], it has been determined
to be of a little value since, if ptrace functionality is available for
an attacker, they can use PTRACE_PEEKUSR/PTRACE_POKEUSR to read/write
different offsets in the pt_regs struct, observe the cache behavior of
the pt_regs accesses, and figure out the random stack offset. Another
difference is that the random offset is stored in a per-cpu variable,
rather than having it be per-thread. As a result, these implementations
differ a fair bit in their implementation details and results, though
obviously the intent is similar.

Add compatible strings to support the system timer, clocksource, OST,
watchdog and PWM blocks of the JZ4760 and JZ4760B SoCs.
Newer SoCs which behave like the JZ4760 or JZ4760B now see their
compatible string require a fallback compatible string that corresponds
to one of these two SoCs.

ARM64 currently defaults to posted MMIO (nGnRE), but some devices
require the use of non-posted MMIO (nGnRnE). Introduce a new ioremap()
variant to handle this case. ioremap_np() returns NULL on arches that
do not implement this variant.
sparc64 is the only architecture that needs to be touched directly,
because it includes neither of the generic io.h or iomap.h headers.
This adds the IORESOURCE_MEM_NONPOSTED flag, which maps to this
variant and marks a given resource as requiring non-posted mappings.
This is implemented in the resource system because it is a SoC-level
requirement, so existing drivers do not need special-case code to pick
this ioremap variant.
Then this is implemented in devres by introducing devm_ioremap_np(),
and making devm_ioremap_resource() automatically select this variant
when the resource has the IORESOURCE_MEM_NONPOSTED flag set.

Not all platforms provide the same set of timers/interrupts, and Linux
only needs one (plus kvm/guest ones); some platforms are working around
this by using dummy fake interrupts. Implementing interrupt-names allows
the devicetree to specify an arbitrary set of available interrupts, so
the timer code can pick the right one.
This also adds the hyp-virt timer/interrupt, which was previously not
expressed in the fixed 4-interrupt form.
