Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux

2026-04-14T23:48:56+00:00

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 "The biggest changes are MPAM enablement in drivers/resctrl and new PMU
  support under drivers/perf.

  On the core side, FEAT_LSUI lets futex atomic operations with EL0
  permissions, avoiding PAN toggling.

  The rest is mostly TLB invalidation refactoring, further generic entry
  work, sysreg updates and a few fixes.

  Core features:

   - Add support for FEAT_LSUI, allowing futex atomic operations without
     toggling Privileged Access Never (PAN)

   - Further refactor the arm64 exception handling code towards the
     generic entry infrastructure

   - Optimise __READ_ONCE() with CONFIG_LTO=y and allow alias analysis
     through it

  Memory management:

   - Refactor the arm64 TLB invalidation API and implementation for
     better control over barrier placement and level-hinted invalidation

   - Enable batched TLB flushes during memory hot-unplug

   - Fix rodata=full block mapping support for realm guests (when
     BBML2_NOABORT is available)

  Perf and PMU:

   - Add support for a whole bunch of system PMUs featured in NVIDIA's
     Tegra410 SoC (cspmu extensions for the fabric and PCIe, new drivers
     for CPU/C2C memory latency PMUs)

   - Clean up iomem resource handling in the Arm CMN driver

   - Fix signedness handling of AA64DFR0.{PMUVer,PerfMon}

  MPAM (Memory Partitioning And Monitoring):

   - Add architecture context-switch and hiding of the feature from KVM

   - Add interface to allow MPAM to be exposed to user-space using
     resctrl

   - Add errata workaround for some existing platforms

   - Add documentation for using MPAM and what shape of platforms can
     use resctrl

  Miscellaneous:

   - Check DAIF (and PMR, where relevant) at task-switch time

   - Skip TFSR_EL1 checks and barriers in synchronous MTE tag check mode
     (only relevant to asynchronous or asymmetric tag check modes)

   - Remove a duplicate allocation in the kexec code

   - Remove redundant save/restore of SCS SP on entry to/from EL0

   - Generate the KERNEL_HWCAP_ definitions from the arm64 hwcap
     descriptions

   - Add kselftest coverage for cmpbr_sigill()

   - Update sysreg definitions"

arm_mpam: Quirk CMN-650's CSU NRDY behaviour

2026-03-27T15:32:42+00:00

CMN-650 is afflicted with an erratum where the CSU NRDY bit never clears.
This tells us the monitor never finishes scanning the cache. The erratum
document says to wait the maximum time, then ignore the field.

Add a flag to indicate whether this is the final attempt to read the
counter, and when this quirk is applied, ignore the NRDY field.

This means accesses to this counter will always retry, even if the counter
was previously programmed to the same values.

The counter value is not expected to be stable, it drifts up and down with
each allocation and eviction. The CSU register provides the value for a
point in time.

arm_mpam: Add workaround for T241-MPAM-6

2026-03-27T15:32:41+00:00

The registers MSMON_MBWU_L and MSMON_MBWU return the number of requests
rather than the number of bytes transferred.

Bandwidth resource monitoring is performed at the last level cache, where
each request arrive in 64Byte granularity. The current implementation
returns the number of transactions received at the last level cache but
does not provide the value in bytes. Scaling by 64 gives an accurate byte
count to match the MPAM specification for the MSMON_MBWU and MSMON_MBWU_L
registers. This patch fixes the issue by reporting the actual number of
bytes instead of the number of transactions from __ris_msmon_read().

arm_mpam: Add workaround for T241-MPAM-4

2026-03-27T15:32:41+00:00

In the T241 implementation of memory-bandwidth partitioning, in the absence
of contention for bandwidth, the minimum bandwidth setting can affect the
amount of achieved bandwidth. Specifically, the achieved bandwidth in the
absence of contention can settle to any value between the values of
MPAMCFG_MBW_MIN and MPAMCFG_MBW_MAX.  Also, if MPAMCFG_MBW_MIN is set
zero (below 0.78125%), once a core enters a throttled state, it will never
leave that state.

The first issue is not a concern if the MPAM software allows to program
MPAMCFG_MBW_MIN through the sysfs interface. This patch ensures program
MBW_MIN=1 (0.78125%) whenever MPAMCFG_MBW_MIN=0 is programmed.

In the scenario where the resctrl doesn't support the MBW_MIN interface via
sysfs, to achieve bandwidth closer to MBW_MAX in the absence of contention,
software should configure a relatively narrow gap between MBW_MIN and
MBW_MAX. The recommendation is to use a 5% gap to mitigate the problem.

Clear the feature MBW_MIN feature from the class to ensure we don't
accidentally change behaviour when resctrl adds support for a MBW_MIN
interface.

arm_mpam: Add workaround for T241-MPAM-1

2026-03-27T15:32:41+00:00

The MPAM bandwidth partitioning controls will not be correctly configured,
and hardware will retain default configuration register values, meaning
generally that bandwidth will remain unprovisioned.

To address the issue, follow the below steps after updating the MBW_MIN
and/or MBW_MAX registers.

 - Perform 64b reads from all 12 bridge MPAM shadow registers at offsets
   (0x360048 + slice*0x10000 + partid*8). These registers are read-only.
 - Continue iterating until all 12 shadow register values match in a loop.
   pr_warn_once if the values fail to match within the loop count 1000.
 - Perform 64b writes with the value 0x0 to the two spare registers at
   offsets 0x1b0000 and 0x1c0000.

In the hardware, writes to the MPAMCFG_MBW_MAX MPAMCFG_MBW_MIN registers
are transformed into broadcast writes to the 12 shadow registers. The
final two writes to the spare registers cause a final rank of downstream
micro-architectural MPAM registers to be updated from the shadow copies.
The intervening loop to read the 12 shadow registers helps avoid a race
condition where writes to the spare registers occur before all shadow
registers have been updated.

arm_mpam: Add quirk framework

2026-03-27T15:32:27+00:00

The MPAM specification includes the MPAMF_IIDR, which serves to uniquely
identify the MSC implementation through a combination of implementer
details, product ID, variant, and revision. Certain hardware issues/errata
can be resolved using software workarounds.

Introduce a quirk framework to allow workarounds to be enabled based on the
MPAMF_IIDR value.

arm64: mpam: Select ARCH_HAS_CPU_RESCTRL

2026-03-27T15:32:11+00:00

Enough MPAM support is present to enable ARCH_HAS_CPU_RESCTRL.  Let it
rip^Wlink!

ARCH_HAS_CPU_RESCTRL indicates resctrl can be enabled. It is enabled by the
arch code simply because it has 'arch' in its name.

This removes ARM_CPU_RESCTRL as a mimic of X86_CPU_RESCTRL.  While here,
move the ACPI dependency to the driver's Kconfig file.

arm_mpam: resctrl: Add empty definitions for assorted resctrl functions

2026-03-27T15:32:04+00:00

A few resctrl features and hooks need to be provided, but aren't needed or
supported on MPAM platforms.

resctrl has individual hooks to separately enable and disable the
closid/partid and rmid/pmg context switching code. For MPAM this is all the
same thing, as the value in struct task_struct is used to cache the value
that should be written to hardware. arm64's context switching code is
enabled once MPAM is usable, but doesn't touch the hardware unless the
value has changed.

For now event configuration is not supported, and can be turned off by
returning 'false' from resctrl_arch_is_evt_configurable().

The new io_alloc feature is not supported either, always return false from
the enable helper to indicate and fail the enable.

Add this, and empty definitions for the other hooks.

arm_mpam: resctrl: Update the rmid reallocation limit

2026-03-27T15:31:57+00:00

resctrl's limbo code needs to be told when the data left in a cache is
small enough for the partid+pmg value to be re-allocated.

x86 uses the cache size divided by the number of rmid users the cache may
have. Do the same, but for the smallest cache, and with the number of
partid-and-pmg users.
