<title>arm64: decouple check whether pfn is in linear map from pfn_valid()</title>
<updated>2021-07-01T03:47:29+00:00</updated>

<id>873ba463914cf484371cba06959d320f9d3121ca</id>
<content type='text'>
The intended semantics of pfn_valid() is to verify whether there is a
struct page for the pfn in question and nothing else.

Yet, on arm64 it is used to distinguish memory areas that are mapped in
the linear map vs those that require ioremap() to access them.

Introduce a dedicated pfn_is_map_memory() wrapper for
memblock_is_map_memory() to perform such check and use it where
appropriate.

Using a wrapper allows to avoid cyclic include dependencies.

While here also update style of pfn_valid() so that both pfn_valid() and
pfn_is_map_memory() declarations will be consistent.

<title>CFI: Move function_nocfi() into compiler.h</title>

<id>590e8a082a5772071d7bcfea2b8e5a2453cecad2</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently the common definition of function_nocfi() is provided by
&lt;linux/mm.h&gt;, and architectures are expected to provide a definition in
&lt;asm/memory.h&gt;. Due to header dependencies, this can make it hard to use
function_nocfi() in low-level headers.

As function_nocfi() has no dependency on any mm code, nor on any memory
definitions, it doesn't need to live in &lt;linux/mm.h&gt; or &lt;asm/memory.h&gt;.
Generally, it would make more sense for it to live in
&lt;linux/compiler.h&gt;, where an architecture can override it in
&lt;asm/compiler.h&gt;.

Move the definitions accordingly.

Patch series "kasan: integrate with init_on_alloc/free", v3.

This patch series integrates HW_TAGS KASAN with init_on_alloc/free by
initializing memory via the same arm64 instruction that sets memory tags.

This is expected to improve HW_TAGS KASAN performance when
init_on_alloc/free is enabled.  The exact perfomance numbers are unknown
as MTE-enabled hardware doesn't exist yet.

This patch (of 5):

This change adds an argument to mte_set_mem_tag_range() that allows to
enable memory initialization when settinh the allocation tags.  The
implementation uses stzg instruction instead of stg when this argument
indicates to initialize memory.

Combining setting allocation tags with memory initialization will improve
HW_TAGS KASAN performance when init_on_alloc/free is enabled.

This change doesn't integrate memory initialization with KASAN, this is
done is subsequent patches in this series.

Patch series "kasan: integrate with init_on_alloc/free", v3.

This patch series integrates HW_TAGS KASAN with init_on_alloc/free by
initializing memory via the same arm64 instruction that sets memory tags.

This is expected to improve HW_TAGS KASAN performance when
init_on_alloc/free is enabled.  The exact perfomance numbers are unknown
as MTE-enabled hardware doesn't exist yet.

This patch (of 5):

This change adds an argument to mte_set_mem_tag_range() that allows to
enable memory initialization when settinh the allocation tags.  The
implementation uses stzg instruction instead of stg when this argument
indicates to initialize memory.

Combining setting allocation tags with memory initialization will improve
HW_TAGS KASAN performance when init_on_alloc/free is enabled.

This change doesn't integrate memory initialization with KASAN, this is
done is subsequent patches in this series.

Pull CFI on arm64 support from Kees Cook:
 "This builds on last cycle's LTO work, and allows the arm64 kernels to
  be built with Clang's Control Flow Integrity feature. This feature has
  happily lived in Android kernels for almost 3 years[1], so I'm excited
  to have it ready for upstream.

  The wide diffstat is mainly due to the treewide fixing of mismatched
  list_sort prototypes. Other things in core kernel are to address
  various CFI corner cases. The largest code portion is the CFI runtime
  implementation itself (which will be shared by all architectures
  implementing support for CFI). The arm64 pieces are Acked by arm64
  maintainers rather than coming through the arm64 tree since carrying
  this tree over there was going to be awkward.

  CFI support for x86 is still under development, but is pretty close.
  There are a handful of corner cases on x86 that need some improvements
  to Clang and objtool, but otherwise works well.

  Summary:

   - Clean up list_sort prototypes (Sami Tolvanen)

   - Introduce CONFIG_CFI_CLANG for arm64 (Sami Tolvanen)"

* tag 'cfi-v5.13-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux:
  arm64: allow CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to be selected
  KVM: arm64: Disable CFI for nVHE
  arm64: ftrace: use function_nocfi for ftrace_call
  arm64: add __nocfi to __apply_alternatives
  arm64: add __nocfi to functions that jump to a physical address
  arm64: use function_nocfi with __pa_symbol
  arm64: implement function_nocfi
  psci: use function_nocfi for cpu_resume
  lkdtm: use function_nocfi
  treewide: Change list_sort to use const pointers
  bpf: disable CFI in dispatcher functions
  kallsyms: strip ThinLTO hashes from static functions
  kthread: use WARN_ON_FUNCTION_MISMATCH
  workqueue: use WARN_ON_FUNCTION_MISMATCH
  module: ensure __cfi_check alignment
  mm: add generic function_nocfi macro
  cfi: add __cficanonical
  add support for Clang CFI

<title>arm64: Force SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP as the only memory management model</title>

Currently arm64 allows a choice of FLATMEM, SPARSEMEM and
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. However, only the latter is tested regularly. FLATMEM
does not seem to boot in certain configurations (guest under KVM with
Qemu as a VMM). Since the reduction of the SECTION_SIZE_BITS to 27 (4K
pages) or 29 (64K page), there's little argument against the memory
wasted by the mem_map array with SPARSEMEM.

Make SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP the only available option, non-selectable, and
remove the corresponding #ifdefs under arch/arm64/.
