<title>arm64/sve: Report SVE to userspace via CPUID only if supported</title>

<id>3fab39997a98b97138c886978af660c4f6c7e9e6</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the SVE field in ID_AA64PFR0_EL1 is visible
unconditionally to userspace via the CPU ID register emulation,
irrespective of the kernel config.  This means that if a kernel
configured with CONFIG_ARM64_SVE=n is run on SVE-capable hardware,
userspace will see SVE reported as present in the ID regs even
though the kernel forbids execution of SVE instructions.

This patch makes the exposure of the SVE field in ID_AA64PFR0_EL1
conditional on CONFIG_ARM64_SVE=y.

Since future architecture features are likely to encounter a
similar requirement, this patch adds a suitable helper macros for
use when declaring config-conditional ID register fields.

Fixes: 43994d824e84 ("arm64/sve: Detect SVE and activate runtime support")

<title>arm64: Add software workaround for Falkor erratum 1041</title>

<id>932b50c7c1c65e6f23002e075b97ee083c4a9e71</id>
<content type='text'>
The ARM architecture defines the memory locations that are permitted
to be accessed as the result of a speculative instruction fetch from
an exception level for which all stages of translation are disabled.
Specifically, the core is permitted to speculatively fetch from the
4KB region containing the current program counter 4K and next 4K.

When translation is changed from enabled to disabled for the running
exception level (SCTLR_ELn[M] changed from a value of 1 to 0), the
Falkor core may errantly speculatively access memory locations outside
of the 4KB region permitted by the architecture. The errant memory
access may lead to one of the following unexpected behaviors.

1) A System Error Interrupt (SEI) being raised by the Falkor core due
   to the errant memory access attempting to access a region of memory
   that is protected by a slave-side memory protection unit.
2) Unpredictable device behavior due to a speculative read from device
   memory. This behavior may only occur if the instruction cache is
   disabled prior to or coincident with translation being changed from
   enabled to disabled.

The conditions leading to this erratum will not occur when either of the
following occur:
 1) A higher exception level disables translation of a lower exception level
   (e.g. EL2 changing SCTLR_EL1[M] from a value of 1 to 0).
 2) An exception level disabling its stage-1 translation if its stage-2
    translation is enabled (e.g. EL1 changing SCTLR_EL1[M] from a value of 1
    to 0 when HCR_EL2[VM] has a value of 1).

To avoid the errant behavior, software must execute an ISB immediately
prior to executing the MSR that will change SCTLR_ELn[M] from 1 to 0.

Add cputype definition macros for Qualcomm Datacenter Technologies
Falkor CPU in cputype.h. It's unfortunate that the first revision
of the Falkor CPU used the wrong part number 0x800, got fixed in v2
chip with part number 0xC00, and would be used the same value for
future revisions.

<title>arm64: mm: Fix false positives in set_pte_at access/dirty race detection</title>

Jiankang reports that our race detection in set_pte_at is firing when
copying the page tables in dup_mmap as a result of a fork(). In this
situation, the page table isn't actually live and so there is no way
that we can race with a concurrent update from the hardware page table
walker.

This patch reworks the race detection so that we require either the
mm to match the current active_mm (i.e. currently installed in our TTBR0)
or the mm_users count to be greater than 1, implying that the page table
could be live in another CPU. The mm_users check might still be racy,
but we'll avoid false positives and it's not realistic to validate that
all the necessary locks are held as part of this assertion.

On systems with hardware dirty bit management, the ltp madvise09 unit
test fails due to dirty bit information being lost and pages being
incorrectly freed.

This was bisected to:
	arm64: Ignore hardware dirty bit updates in ptep_set_wrprotect()

Reverting this commit leads to a separate problem, that the unit test
retains pages that should have been dropped due to the function
madvise_free_pte_range(.) not cleaning pte's properly.

Currently pte_mkclean only clears the software dirty bit, thus the
following code sequence can appear:

	pte = pte_mkclean(pte);
	if (pte_dirty(pte))
		// this condition can return true with HW DBM!

This patch also adjusts pte_mkclean to set PTE_RDONLY thus effectively
clearing both the SW and HW dirty information.

In order for this to function on systems without HW DBM, we need to
also adjust pte_mkdirty to remove the read only bit from writable pte's
to avoid infinite fault loops.

<title>arm64: SW PAN: Update saved ttbr0 value on enter_lazy_tlb</title>

enter_lazy_tlb is called when a kernel thread rides on the back of
another mm, due to a context switch or an explicit call to unuse_mm
where a call to switch_mm is elided.

In these cases, it's important to keep the saved ttbr value up to date
with the active mm, otherwise we can end up with a stale value which
points to a potentially freed page table.

This patch implements enter_lazy_tlb for arm64, so that the saved ttbr0
is kept up-to-date with the active mm for kernel threads.

<title>arm64: SW PAN: Point saved ttbr0 at the zero page when switching to init_mm</title>

update_saved_ttbr0 mandates that mm-&gt;pgd is not swapper, since swapper
contains kernel mappings and should never be installed into ttbr0. However,
this means that callers must avoid passing the init_mm to update_saved_ttbr0
which in turn can cause the saved ttbr0 value to be out-of-date in the context
of the idle thread. For example, EFI runtime services may leave the saved ttbr0
pointing at the EFI page table, and kernel threads may end up with stale
references to freed page tables.

This patch changes update_saved_ttbr0 so that the init_mm points the saved
ttbr0 value to the empty zero page, which always exists and never contains
valid translations. EFI and switch can then call into update_saved_ttbr0
unconditionally.

KVM/ARM Fixes for v4.15.

Fixes:
 - A number of issues in the vgic discovered using SMATCH
 - A bit one-off calculation in out stage base address mask (32-bit and
   64-bit)
 - Fixes to single-step debugging instructions that trap for other
   reasons such as MMMIO aborts
 - Printing unavailable hyp mode as error
 - Potential spinlock deadlock in the vgic
 - Avoid calling vgic vcpu free more than once
 - Broken bit calculation for big endian systems
