commit 79f32b221b18c15a98507b101ef4beb52444cc6f upstream

Teach ftrace_make_call() and ftrace_make_nop() about PLTs.
Teach PLT code about FTRACE and all its callbacks.
Otherwise the following might happen:

<title>KVM: arm64: Initialize VCPU mdcr_el2 before loading it</title>

commit 263d6287da1433aba11c5b4046388f2cdf49675c upstream.

When a VCPU is created, the kvm_vcpu struct is initialized to zero in
kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu(). On VHE systems, the first time
vcpu.arch.mdcr_el2 is loaded on hardware is in vcpu_load(), before it is
set to a sensible value in kvm_arm_setup_debug() later in the run loop. The
result is that KVM executes for a short time with MDCR_EL2 set to zero.

This has several unintended consequences:

* Setting MDCR_EL2.HPMN to 0 is constrained unpredictable according to ARM
  DDI 0487G.a, page D13-3820. The behavior specified by the architecture
  in this case is for the PE to behave as if MDCR_EL2.HPMN is set to a
  value less than or equal to PMCR_EL0.N, which means that an unknown
  number of counters are now disabled by MDCR_EL2.HPME, which is zero.

* The host configuration for the other debug features controlled by
  MDCR_EL2 is temporarily lost. This has been harmless so far, as Linux
  doesn't use the other fields, but that might change in the future.

Let's avoid both issues by initializing the VCPU's mdcr_el2 field in
kvm_vcpu_vcpu_first_run_init(), thus making sure that the MDCR_EL2 register
has a consistent value after each vcpu_load().

Commit

  149a3ffe62b9dbc3 ("9012/1: move device tree mapping out of linear region")

created a permanent, read-only section mapping of the device tree blob
provided by the firmware, and added a set of macros to get the base and
size of the virtually mapped FDT based on the physical address. However,
while the mapping code uses the SECTION_SIZE macro correctly, the macros
use PMD_SIZE instead, which means something entirely different on ARM when
using short descriptors, and is therefore not the right quantity to use
here. So replace PMD_SIZE with SECTION_SIZE. While at it, change the names
of the macro and its parameter to clarify that it returns the virtual
address of the start of the FDT, based on the physical address in memory.

commit 7a1be318f5795cb66fa0dc86b3ace427fe68057f upstream

On ARM, setting up the linear region is tricky, given the constraints
around placement and alignment of the memblocks, and how the kernel
itself as well as the DT are placed in physical memory.

Let's simplify matters a bit, by moving the device tree mapping to the
top of the address space, right between the end of the vmalloc region
and the start of the the fixmap region, and create a read-only mapping
for it that is independent of the size of the linear region, and how it
is organized.

Since this region was formerly used as a guard region, which will now be
populated fully on LPAE builds by this read-only mapping (which will
still be able to function as a guard region for stray writes), bump the
start of the [underutilized] fixmap region by 512 KB as well, to ensure
that there is always a proper guard region here. Doing so still leaves
ample room for the fixmap space, even with NR_CPUS set to its maximum
value of 32.

itself as well as the DT are placed in physical memory.

Let's simplify matters a bit, by moving the device tree mapping to the
top of the address space, right between the end of the vmalloc region
and the start of the the fixmap region, and create a read-only mapping
for it that is independent of the size of the linear region, and how it
is organized.

Since this region was formerly used as a guard region, which will now be
populated fully on LPAE builds by this read-only mapping (which will
still be able to function as a guard region for stray writes), bump the
start of the [underutilized] fixmap region by 512 KB as well, to ensure
that there is always a proper guard region here. Doing so still leaves
ample room for the fixmap space, even with NR_CPUS set to its maximum
value of 32.

commit e9a2f8b599d0bc22a1b13e69527246ac39c697b4 upstream

Before moving the DT mapping out of the linear region, let's prepare
for this change by removing all the phys-to-virt translations of the
__atags_pointer variable, and perform this translation only once at
setup time.

<title>KVM: arm64: Ensure I-cache isolation between vcpus of a same VM</title>

Commit 01dc9262ff5797b675c32c0c6bc682777d23de05 upstream.

It recently became apparent that the ARMv8 architecture has interesting
rules regarding attributes being used when fetching instructions
if the MMU is off at Stage-1.

In this situation, the CPU is allowed to fetch from the PoC and
allocate into the I-cache (unless the memory is mapped with
the XN attribute at Stage-2).

If we transpose this to vcpus sharing a single physical CPU,
it is possible for a vcpu running with its MMU off to influence
another vcpu running with its MMU on, as the latter is expected to
fetch from the PoU (and self-patching code doesn't flush below that
level).

In order to solve this, reuse the vcpu-private TLB invalidation
code to apply the same policy to the I-cache, nuking it every time
the vcpu runs on a physical CPU that ran another vcpu of the same
VM in the past.

This involve renaming __kvm_tlb_flush_local_vmid() to
__kvm_flush_cpu_context(), and inserting a local i-cache invalidation
there.

<title>ARM: kexec: fix oops after TLB are invalidated</title>

[ Upstream commit 4d62e81b60d4025e2dfcd5ea531cc1394ce9226f ]

Giancarlo Ferrari reports the following oops while trying to use kexec:

 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 80112f38
 pgd = fd7ef03e
 [80112f38] *pgd=0001141e(bad)
 Internal error: Oops: 80d [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM
 ...

This is caused by machine_kexec() trying to set the kernel text to be
read/write, so it can poke values into the relocation code before
copying it - and an interrupt occuring which changes the page tables.
The subsequent writes then hit read-only sections that trigger a
data abort resulting in the above oops.

Fix this by copying the relocation code, and then writing the variables
into the destination, thereby avoiding the need to make the kernel text
read/write.

[ Upstream commit cef397038167ac15d085914493d6c86385773709 ]

Stefan Agner reported a bug when using zsram on 32-bit Arm machines
with RAM above the 4GB address boundary:

  Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
  pgd = a27bd01c

  Stack: (0xe376bbe0 to 0xe376c000)

As it turns out, zsram needs to know the maximum memory size, which
is defined in MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM is set, or in
MAX_POSSIBLE_PHYSMEM_BITS on the x86 architecture.

The same problem will be hit on all 32-bit architectures that have a
physical address space larger than 4GB and happen to not enable sparsemem
and include asm/sparsemem.h from asm/pgtable.h.

After the initial discussion, I suggested just always defining
MAX_POSSIBLE_PHYSMEM_BITS whenever CONFIG_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT is
set, or provoking a build error otherwise. This addresses all
configurations that can currently have this runtime bug, but
leaves all other configurations unchanged.

I looked up the possible number of bits in source code and
datasheets, here is what I found:

 - on ARC, CONFIG_ARC_HAS_PAE40 controls whether 32 or 40 bits are used
 - on ARM, CONFIG_LPAE enables 40 bit addressing, without it we never
   support more than 32 bits, even though supersections in theory allow
   up to 40 bits as well.
 - on MIPS, some MIPS32r1 or later chips support 36 bits, and MIPS32r5
   XPA supports up to 60 bits in theory, but 40 bits are more than
   anyone will ever ship
 - On PowerPC, there are three different implementations of 36 bit
   addressing, but 32-bit is used without CONFIG_PTE_64BIT
 - On RISC-V, the normal page table format can support 34 bit
   addressing. There is no highmem support on RISC-V, so anything
   above 2GB is unused, but it might be useful to eventually support
   CONFIG_ZRAM for high pages.
