Our break hooks are used to handle brk exceptions from kgdb (and potentially kprobes if that code ever resurfaces), so don't bother calling them if the BRK exception comes from userspace. This prevents userspace from trapping to a kdb shell on systems where kgdb is enabled and active.

Building a kernel with CPU_BIG_ENDIAN fails if there are stale objects from a !CPU_BIG_ENDIAN build. Due to a missing FORCE prerequisite on an if_changed rule in the VDSO Makefile, we attempt to link a stale LE object into the new BE kernel. According to Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt, FORCE is required for if_changed rules and forgetting it is a common mistake, so fix it by 'Forcing' the build of vdso. This patch fixes build errors like these: arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/note.o: compiled for a little endian system and target is big endian failed to merge target specific data of file arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/note.o arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/sigreturn.o: compiled for a little endian system and target is big endian failed to merge target specific data of file arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/sigreturn.o Tested-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Arun Chandran <achandran@mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

When running as a kvm guest on a para-virtualised platform, it is useful to have virtio implementations of console, 9pfs and network. This adds these options to the arm64 defconfig, so we can easily run a defconfig kernel build as both host and as a kvm guest. Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

For arm64, this is ~240GB for 4k pagesize and ~2TB for 64kpage size. This patch works around this problem by adding a loop limit. If the range is larger than the limit, use flush_tlb_all() rather than flushing based on individual pages. The limit chosen is arbitrary as the TLB size is implementation specific and not accessible in an architected way. The aim of the arbitrary limit is to avoid soft lockup.

The architecture specification states that both DSB and ISB are required between page table modifications and subsequent memory accesses using the corresponding virtual address. When TLB invalidation takes place, the tlb_flush_* functions already have the necessary barriers. However, there are other functions like create_mapping() for which this is not the case. The patch adds the DSB+ISB instructions in the set_pte() function for valid kernel mappings. The invalid pte case is handled by tlb_flush_* and the user mappings in general have a corresponding update_mmu_cache() call containing a DSB. Even when update_mmu_cache() isn't called, the kernel can still cope with an unlikely spurious page fault by re-executing the instruction. In addition, the set_pmd, set_pud() functions gain an ISB for architecture compliance when block mappings are created.

This patch implements 4 levels of translation tables since 3 levels of page tables with 4KB pages cannot support 40-bit physical address space described in [1] due to the following issue. It is a restriction that kernel logical memory map with 4KB + 3 levels (0xffffffc000000000-0xffffffffffffffff) cannot cover RAM region from 544GB to 1024GB in [1]. Specifically, ARM64 kernel fails to create mapping for this region in map_mem function since __phys_to_virt for this region reaches to address overflow. If SoC design follows the document, [1], over 32GB RAM would be placed from 544GB. Even 64GB system is supposed to use the region from 544GB to 576GB for only 32GB RAM. Naturally, it would reach to enable 4 levels of page tables to avoid hacking __virt_to_phys and __phys_to_virt. However, it is recommended 4 levels of page table should be only enabled if memory map is too sparse or there is about 512GB RAM.

Currently reading /proc/cpuinfo will result in information being read out of the MIDR_EL1 of the current CPU, and the information is not associated with any particular logical CPU number. This is problematic for systems with heterogeneous CPUs (i.e. big.LITTLE) where MIDR fields will vary across CPUs, and the output will differ depending on the executing CPU. This patch reorganises the code responsible for /proc/cpuinfo to print information per-cpu. In the process, we perform several cleanups: * Property names are coerced to lower-case (to match "processor" as per glibc's expectations). * Property names are simplified and made to match the MIDR field names. * Revision is changed to hex as with every other field. * The meaningless Architecture property is removed. * The ripe-for-abuse Machine field is removed. The features field (a human-readable representation of the hwcaps) remains printed once, as this is expected to remain in use as the globally support CPU features. To enable the possibility of the addition of per-cpu HW feature information later, this is printed before any CPU-specific information. Comments are added to guide userspace developers in the right direction (using the hwcaps provided in auxval). Hopefully where userspace applications parse /proc/cpuinfo rather than using the readily available hwcaps, they limit themselves to reading said first line. If CPU features differ from each other, the previously installed sanity checks will give us some advance notice with warnings and TAINT_CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC. If we are lucky, we will never see such systems. Rework will be required in many places to support such systems anyway.

Unexpected variation in certain system register values across CPUs is an indicator of potential problems with a system. The kernel expects CPUs to be mostly identical in terms of supported features, even in systems with heterogeneous CPUs, with uniform instruction set support being critical for the correct operation of userspace. To help detect issues early where hardware violates the expectations of the kernel, this patch adds simple runtime sanity checks on important ID registers in the bring up path of each CPU. Where CPUs are fundamentally mismatched, set TAINT_CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC. Given that the kernel assumes CPUs are identical feature wise, let's not pretend that we expect such configurations to work. Supporting such configurations would require massive rework, and hopefully they will never exist.

In big.LITTLE systems, the I-cache policy may differ across CPUs, and thus we must always meet the most stringent maintenance requirements of any I-cache in the system when performing maintenance to ensure correctness. Unfortunately this requirement is not met as we always look at the current CPU's cache type register to determine the maintenance requirements. This patch causes the I-cache policy of all CPUs to be taken into account for icache_is_aliasing and icache_is_aivivt. If any I-cache in the system is aliasing or AIVIVT, the respective function will return true. At boot each CPU may set flags to identify that at least one I-cache in the system is aliasing and/or AIVIVT. The now unused and potentially misleading icache_policy function is removed.

Several kernel subsystems need to know details about CPU system register values, sometimes for CPUs other than that they are executing on. Rather than hard-coding system register accesses and cross-calls for these cases, this patch adds logic to record various system register values at boot-time. This may be used for feature reporting, firmware bug detection, etc. Separate hooks are added for the boot and hotplug paths to enable one-time intialisation and cold/warm boot value mismatch detection in later patches.

The MIDR_EL1 register is composed of a number of bitfields, and uses of the fields has so far involved open-coding of the shifts and masks required. This patch adds shifts and masks for each of the MIDR_EL1 subfields, and also provides accessors built atop of these. Existing uses within cputype.h are updated to use these accessors. The read_cpuid_part_number macro is modified to return the extracted bitfield rather than returning the value in-place with all other fields (including revision) masked out, to better match the other accessors. As the value is only used in comparison with the *_CPU_PART_* macros which are similarly updated, and these values are never exposed to userspace, this change should not affect any functionality.
