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")

Since then, similar errata have been published for a number of other Arm
Ltd CPUs, for which the same mitigation is sufficient. This is described
in their respective Software Developer Errata Notice (SDEN) documents:

* Cortex-A76 (MP052) SDEN v31.0, erratum 3324349
  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-885749/3100/

* Cortex-A77 (MP074) SDEN v19.0, erratum 3324348
  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1152370/1900/

* Cortex-A78 (MP102) SDEN v21.0, erratum 3324344
  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1401784/2100/

* Cortex-A78C (MP138) SDEN v16.0, erratum 3324346
  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1707916/1600/

* Cortex-A78C (MP154) SDEN v10.0, erratum 3324347
  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-2004089/1000/

* Cortex-A725 (MP190) SDEN v5.0, erratum 3456106
  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-2832921/0500/

* Cortex-X1 (MP077) SDEN v21.0, erratum 3324344
  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1401782/2100/

* Cortex-X1C (MP136) SDEN v16.0, erratum 3324346
  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1707914/1600/

* Neoverse-N1 (MP050) SDEN v32.0, erratum 3324349
  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-885747/3200/

* Neoverse-V1 (MP076) SDEN v19.0, erratum 3324341
  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1401781/1900/

Note that due to the manner in which Arm develops IP and tracks errata,
some CPUs share a common erratum number and some CPUs have multiple
erratum numbers for the same HW issue.

On parts without SB, it is necessary to use ISB for the workaround. The
spec_bar() macro used in the mitigation will expand to a "DSB SY; ISB"
sequence in this case, which is sufficient on all affected parts.

Enable the existing mitigation by adding the relevant MIDRs to
erratum_spec_ssbs_list. The list is sorted alphanumerically (involving
moving Neoverse-V3 after Neoverse-V2) so that this is easy to audit and
potentially extend again in future. The Kconfig text is also updated to
clarify the set of affected parts and the mitigation.

* Cortex-A710 SDEN v19.0, errataum 3324338

Note that due to shared design lineage, some CPUs share the same erratum
number.

Add these to the existing mitigation under CONFIG_ARM64_ERRATUM_3194386.
As listing all of the erratum IDs in the runtime description would be
unwieldy, this is reduced to:

	"SSBS not fully self-synchronizing"

... matching the description of the errata in all of the SDENs.

<title>arm64: errata: Unify speculative SSBS errata logic</title>

Cortex-X4 erratum 3194386 and Neoverse-V3 erratum 3312417 are identical,
with duplicate Kconfig text and some unsightly ifdeffery. While we try
to share code behind CONFIG_ARM64_WORKAROUND_SPECULATIVE_SSBS, having
separate options results in a fair amount of boilerplate code, and this
will only get worse as we expand the set of affected CPUs.

To reduce this boilerplate, unify the two behind a common Kconfig
option. This removes the duplicate text and Kconfig logic, and removes
the need for the intermediate ARM64_WORKAROUND_SPECULATIVE_SSBS option.
The set of affected CPUs is described as a list so that this can easily
be extended.

I've used ARM64_ERRATUM_3194386 (matching the Neoverse-V3 erratum ID) as
the common option, matching the way we use ARM64_ERRATUM_1319367 to
cover Cortex-A57 erratum 1319537 and Cortex-A72 erratum 1319367.

Cortex-X4 and Neoverse-V3 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. This is described in their Software Developer Errata Notice (SDEN)
documents:

* Cortex-X4 SDEN v8.0, erratum 3194386:
  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-2432808/0800/

* Neoverse-V3 SDEN v6.0, erratum 3312417:
  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-2891958/0600/

To workaround these errata, it is necessary to place a speculation
barrier (SB) after MSR to the SSBS special-purpose register. This patch
adds the requisite SB after writes to SSBS within the kernel, and hides
the presence of SSBS from EL0 such that userspace software which cares
about SSBS will manipulate this via prctl(PR_GET_SPECULATION_CTRL, ...).

Implement the workaround for ARM Cortex-A510 erratum 3117295. On an
affected Cortex-A510 core, a speculatively executed unprivileged load
might leak data from a privileged load via a cache side channel. The
issue only exists for loads within a translation regime with the same
translation (e.g. same ASID and VMID). Therefore, the issue only affects
the return to EL0.

The erratum and workaround are the same as ARM Cortex-A520 erratum
2966298, so reuse the existing workaround.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 "No major architecture features this time around, just some new HWCAP
  definitions, support for the Ampere SoC PMUs and a few fixes/cleanups.

  The bulk of the changes is reworking of the CPU capability checking
  code (cpus_have_cap() etc).

   - Major refactoring of the CPU capability detection logic resulting
     in the removal of the cpus_have_const_cap() function and migrating
     the code to "alternative" branches where possible

   - Backtrace/kgdb: use IPIs and pseudo-NMI

   - Perf and PMU:

      - Add support for Ampere SoC PMUs

      - Multi-DTC improvements for larger CMN configurations with
        multiple Debug &amp; Trace Controllers

      - Rework the Arm CoreSight PMU driver to allow separate
        registration of vendor backend modules

      - Fixes: add missing MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE to the amlogic perf
        driver; use device_get_match_data() in the xgene driver; fix
        NULL pointer dereference in the hisi driver caused by calling
        cpuhp_state_remove_instance(); use-after-free in the hisi driver

   - HWCAP updates:

      - FEAT_SVE_B16B16 (BFloat16)

      - FEAT_LRCPC3 (release consistency model)

      - FEAT_LSE128 (128-bit atomic instructions)

   - SVE: remove a couple of pseudo registers from the cpufeature code.
     There is logic in place already to detect mismatched SVE features

   - Miscellaneous:

      - Reduce the default swiotlb size (currently 64MB) if no ZONE_DMA
        bouncing is needed. The buffer is still required for small
        kmalloc() buffers

      - Fix module PLT counting with !RANDOMIZE_BASE

      - Restrict CPU_BIG_ENDIAN to LLVM IAS 15.x or newer move
        synchronisation code out of the set_ptes() loop

      - More compact cpufeature displaying enabled cores

      - Kselftest updates for the new CPU features"

<title>arm64: Fixup user features at boot time</title>

For ARM64_WORKAROUND_2658417, we use a cpu_enable() callback to hide the
ID_AA64ISAR1_EL1.BF16 ID register field. This is a little awkward as
CPUs may attempt to apply the workaround concurrently, requiring that we
protect the bulk of the callback with a raw_spinlock, and requiring some
pointless work every time a CPU is subsequently hotplugged in.

This patch makes this a little simpler by handling the masking once at
boot time. A new user_feature_fixup() function is called at the start of
setup_user_features() to mask the feature, matching the style of
elf_hwcap_fixup(). The ARM64_WORKAROUND_2658417 cpucap is added to
cpucap_is_possible() so that code can be elided entirely when this is
not possible.

Note that the ARM64_WORKAROUND_2658417 capability is matched with
ERRATA_MIDR_RANGE(), which implicitly gives the capability a
ARM64_CPUCAP_LOCAL_CPU_ERRATUM type, which forbids the late onlining of
a CPU with the erratum if the erratum was not present at boot time.
Therefore this patch doesn't change the behaviour for late onlining.

<title>arm64: errata: Add Cortex-A520 speculative unprivileged load workaround</title>

Implement the workaround for ARM Cortex-A520 erratum 2966298. On an

might leak data from a privileged load via a cache side channel. The
issue only exists for loads within a translation regime with the same
translation (e.g. same ASID and VMID). Therefore, the issue only affects
the return to EL0.

The workaround is to execute a TLBI before returning to EL0 after all
loads of privileged data. A non-shareable TLBI to any address is
sufficient.

The workaround isn't necessary if page table isolation (KPTI) is
enabled, but for simplicity it will be. Page table isolation should
normally be disabled for Cortex-A520 as it supports the CSV3 feature
and the E0PD feature (used when KASLR is enabled).
