This patch enables detection of hardware SVE support via the cpufeatures framework, and reports its presence to the kernel and userspace via the new ARM64_SVE cpucap and HWCAP_SVE hwcap respectively. Userspace can also detect SVE using ID_AA64PFR0_EL1, using the cpufeatures MRS emulation. When running on hardware that supports SVE, this enables runtime kernel support for SVE, and allows user tasks to execute SVE instructions and make of the of the SVE-specific user/kernel interface extensions implemented by this series.

KVM guests cannot currently use SVE, because SVE is always configured to trap to EL2. However, a guest that sees SVE reported as present in ID_AA64PFR0_EL1 may legitimately expect that SVE works and try to use it. Instead of working, the guest will receive an injected undef exception, which may cause the guest to oops or go into a spin. To avoid misleading the guest into believing that SVE will work, this patch masks out the SVE field from ID_AA64PFR0_EL1 when a guest attempts to read this register. No support is explicitly added for ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1 either, so that is still emulated as reading as zero, which is consistent with SVE not being implemented. This is a temporary measure, and will be removed in a later series when full KVM support for SVE is implemented.

When trapping forbidden attempts by a guest to use SVE, we want the guest to see a trap consistent with SVE not being implemented.

Until KVM has full SVE support, guests must not be allowed to execute SVE instructions. This patch enables the necessary traps, and also ensures that the traps are disabled again on exit from the guest so that the host can still use SVE if it wants to. On guest exit, high bits of the SVE Zn registers may have been clobbered as a side-effect the execution of FPSIMD instructions in the guest. The existing KVM host FPSIMD restore code is not sufficient to restore these bits, so this patch explicitly marks the CPU as not containing cached vector state for any task, thus forcing a reload on the next return to userspace. This is an interim measure, in advance of adding full SVE awareness to KVM. This marking of cached vector state in the CPU as invalid is done using __this_cpu_write(fpsimd_last_state, NULL) in fpsimd.c. Due to the repeated use of this rather obscure operation, it makes sense to factor it out as a separate helper with a clearer name. This patch factors it out as fpsimd_flush_cpu_state(), and ports all callers to use it. As a side effect of this refactoring, a this_cpu_write() in fpsimd_cpu_pm_notifier() is changed to __this_cpu_write(). This should be fine, since cpu_pm_enter() is supposed to be called only with interrupts disabled.

Because of the effect of SVE on the size of the signal frame, the default vector length used for new processes involves a tradeoff between performance of SVE-enabled software on the one hand, and reliability of non-SVE-aware software on the other hand. For this reason, the best choice depends on the repertoire of userspace software in use and is thus best left up to distro maintainers, sysadmins and developers. If CONFIG_SYSCTL and CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL are enabled, this patch exposes the default vector length in /proc/sys/abi/sve_default_vector_length, where boot scripts or the adventurous can poke it. In common with other arm64 ABI sysctls, this control is currently global: setting it requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the root user namespace, but the value set is effective for subsequent execs in all namespaces. The control only affects _new_ processes, however: changing it does not affect the vector length of any existing process. The intended usage model is that if userspace is known to be fully SVE-tolerant (or a developer is curious to find out) then this parameter can be cranked up during system startup.

This patch adds two arm64-specific prctls, to permit userspace to control its vector length: * PR_SVE_SET_VL: set the thread's SVE vector length and vector length inheritance mode. * PR_SVE_GET_VL: get the same information. Although these prctls resemble instruction set features in the SVE architecture, they provide additional control: the vector length inheritance mode is Linux-specific and nothing to do with the architecture, and the architecture does not permit EL0 to set its own vector length directly. Both can be used in portable tools without requiring the use of SVE instructions.

This patch defines and implements a new regset NT_ARM_SVE, which describes a thread's SVE register state. This allows a debugger to manipulate the SVE state, as well as being included in ELF coredumps for post-mortem debugging. Because the regset size and layout are dependent on the thread's current vector length, it is not possible to define a C struct to describe the regset contents as is done for existing regsets. Instead, and for the same reasons, NT_ARM_SVE is based on the freeform variable-layout approach used for the SVE signal frame. Additionally, to reduce debug overhead when debugging threads that might or might not have live SVE register state, NT_ARM_SVE may be presented in one of two different formats: the old struct user_fpsimd_state format is embedded for describing the state of a thread with no live SVE state, whereas a new variable-layout structure is embedded for describing live SVE state. This avoids a debugger needing to poll NT_PRFPREG in addition to NT_ARM_SVE, and allows existing userspace code to handle the non-SVE case without too much modification. For this to work, NT_ARM_SVE is defined with a fixed-format header of type struct user_sve_header, which the recipient can use to figure out the content, size and layout of the reset of the regset. Accessor macros are defined to allow the vector-length-dependent parts of the regset to be manipulated.

The EFI runtime services ABI allows EFI to make free use of the FPSIMD registers during EFI runtime service calls, subject to the callee-save requirements of the AArch64 procedure call standard. However, the SVE architecture allows upper bits of the SVE vector registers to be zeroed as a side-effect of FPSIMD V-register writes. This means that the SVE vector registers must be saved in their entirety in order to avoid data loss: non-SVE-aware EFI implementations cannot restore them correctly. The non-IRQ case is already handled gracefully by kernel_neon_begin(). For the IRQ case, this patch allocates a suitable per-CPU stash buffer for the full SVE register state and uses it to preserve the affected registers around EFI calls. It is currently unclear how the EFI runtime services ABI will be clarified with respect to SVE, so it safest to assume that the predicate registers and FFR must be saved and restored too. No attempt is made to restore the restore the vector length after a call, for now. It is deemed rather insane for EFI to change it, and contemporary EFI implementations certainly won't.

This patch uses the cpufeatures framework to determine common SVE capabilities and vector lengths, and configures the runtime SVE support code appropriately. ZCR_ELx is not really a feature register, but it is convenient to use it as a template for recording the maximum vector length supported by a CPU, using the LEN field. This field is similar to a feature field in that it is a contiguous bitfield for which we want to determine the minimum system-wide value. This patch adds ZCR as a pseudo-register in cpuinfo/cpufeatures, with appropriate custom code to populate it. Finding the minimum supported value of the LEN field is left to the cpufeatures framework in the usual way. The meaning of ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1 is not architecturally defined yet, so for now we just require it to be zero. Note that much of this code is dormant and SVE still won't be used yet, since system_supports_sve() remains hardwired to false.

update_cpu_features() currently cannot tell whether it is being called during early or late secondary boot. This doesn't desperately matter for anything it currently does. However, SVE will need to know here whether the set of available vector lengths is known or still to be determined when booting a CPU, so that it can be updated appropriately. This patch simply moves the sys_caps_initialised stuff to the top of the file so that it can be used more widely. There doesn't seem to be a more obvious place to put it.

This patch implements the core logic for changing a task's vector length on request from userspace. This will be used by the ptrace and prctl frontends that are implemented in later patches. The SVE architecture permits, but does not require, implementations to support vector lengths that are not a power of two. To handle this, logic is added to check a requested vector length against a possibly sparse bitmap of available vector lengths at runtime, so that the best supported value can be chosen.

This patch implements support for saving and restoring the SVE registers around signals. A fixed-size header struct sve_context is always included in the signal frame encoding the thread's vector length at the time of signal delivery, optionally followed by a variable-layout structure encoding the SVE registers. Because of the need to preserve backwards compatibility, the FPSIMD view of the SVE registers is always dumped as a struct fpsimd_context in the usual way, in addition to any sve_context. The SVE vector registers are dumped in full, including bits 127:0 of each register which alias the corresponding FPSIMD vector registers in the hardware. To avoid any ambiguity about which alias to restore during sigreturn, the kernel always restores bits 127:0 of each SVE vector register from the fpsimd_context in the signal frame (which must be present): userspace needs to take this into account if it wants to modify the SVE vector register contents on return from a signal. FPSR and FPCR, which are used by both FPSIMD and SVE, are not included in sve_context because they are always present in fpsimd_context anyway. For signal delivery, a new helper fpsimd_signal_preserve_current_state() is added to update _both_ the FPSIMD and SVE views in the task struct, to make it easier to populate this information into the signal frame. Because of the redundancy between the two views of the state, only one is updated otherwise.

It's desirable to be able to reset the vector length to some sane default for new processes, since the new binary and its libraries may or may not be SVE-aware. This patch tracks the desired post-exec vector length (if any) in a new thread member sve_vl_onexec, and adds a new thread flag TIF_SVE_VL_INHERIT to control whether to inherit or reset the vector length. Currently these are inactive. Subsequent patches will provide the capability to configure them.

This patch adds the core support for switching and managing the SVE architectural state of user tasks. Calls to the existing FPSIMD low-level save/restore functions are factored out as new functions task_fpsimd_{save,load}(), since SVE now dynamically may or may not need to be handled at these points depending on the kernel configuration, hardware features discovered at boot, and the runtime state of the task. To make these decisions as fast as possible, const cpucaps are used where feasible, via the system_supports_sve() helper. The SVE registers are only tracked for threads that have explicitly used SVE, indicated by the new thread flag TIF_SVE. Otherwise, the FPSIMD view of the architectural state is stored in thread.fpsimd_state as usual. When in use, the SVE registers are not stored directly in thread_struct due to their potentially large and variable size. Because the task_struct slab allocator must be configured very early during kernel boot, it is also tricky to configure it correctly to match the maximum vector length provided by the hardware, since this depends on examining secondary CPUs as well as the primary. Instead, a pointer sve_state in thread_struct points to a dynamically allocated buffer containing the SVE register data, and code is added to allocate and free this buffer at appropriate times. TIF_SVE is set when taking an SVE access trap from userspace, if suitable hardware support has been detected. This enables SVE for the thread: a subsequent return to userspace will disable the trap accordingly. If such a trap is taken without sufficient system- wide hardware support, SIGILL is sent to the thread instead as if an undefined instruction had been executed: this may happen if userspace tries to use SVE in a system where not all CPUs support it for example. The kernel will clear TIF_SVE and disable SVE for the thread whenever an explicit syscall is made by userspace. For backwards compatibility reasons and conformance with the spirit of the base AArch64 procedure call standard, the subset of the SVE register state that aliases the FPSIMD registers is still preserved across a syscall even if this happens. The remainder of the SVE register state logically becomes zero at syscall entry, though the actual zeroing work is currently deferred until the thread next tries to use SVE, causing another trap to the kernel. This implementation is suboptimal: in the future, the fastpath case may be optimised to zero the registers in-place and leave SVE enabled for the task, where beneficial. TIF_SVE is also cleared in the following slowpath cases, which are taken as reasonable hints that the task may no longer use SVE: * exec * fork and clone Code is added to sync data between thread.fpsimd_state and thread.sve_state whenever enabling/disabling SVE, in a manner consistent with the SVE architectural programmer's model.

To enable the kernel to use SVE, SVE traps from EL1 to EL2 must be disabled. To take maximum advantage of the hardware, the full available vector length also needs to be enabled for EL1 by programming ZCR_EL2.LEN.

This patch adds suitable assembly functions for saving and restoring the SVE registers and querying the vector length. Setting of the vector length is done as part of register restore.

Currently, a guest kernel sees the true CPU feature registers (ID_*_EL1) when it reads them using MRS instructions. This means that the guest may observe features that are present in the hardware but the host doesn't understand or doesn't provide support for. A guest may legimitately try to use such a feature as per the architecture, but use of the feature may trap instead of working normally, triggering undef injection into the guest. This is not a problem for the host, but the guest may go wrong when running on newer hardware than the host knows about. This patch hides from guest VMs any AArch64-specific CPU features that the host doesn't support, by exposing to the guest the sanitised versions of the registers computed by the cpufeatures framework, instead of the true hardware registers. To achieve this, HCR_EL2.TID3 is now set for AArch64 guests, and emulation code is added to KVM to report the sanitised versions of the affected registers in response to MRS and register reads from userspace. The affected registers are removed from invariant_sys_regs[] (since the invariant_sys_regs handling is no longer quite correct for them) and added to sys_reg_desgs[], with appropriate access(), get_user() and set_user() methods. No runtime vcpu storage is allocated for the registers: instead, they are read on demand from the cpufeatures framework. This may need modification in the future if there is a need for userspace to customise the features visible to the guest. Attempts by userspace to write the registers are handled similarly to the current invariant_sys_regs handling: writes are permitted, but only if they don't attempt to change the value. This is sufficient to support VM snapshot/restore from userspace. Because of the additional registers, restoring a VM on an older kernel may not work unless userspace knows how to handle the extra VM registers exposed to the KVM user ABI by this patch. Under the principle of least damage, this patch makes no attempt to handle any of the other registers currently in invariant_sys_regs[], or to emulate registers for AArch32: however, these could be handled in a similar way in future, as necessary.

Currently sys_rt_sigreturn() verifies that the base sigframe is readable, but no similar check is performed on the extra data to which an extra_context record points. This matters because the extra data will be read with the unprotected user accessors. However, this is not a problem at present because the extra data base address is required to be exactly at the end of the base sigframe. So, there would need to be a non-user-readable kernel address within about 59K (SIGFRAME_MAXSZ - sizeof(struct rt_sigframe)) of some address for which access_ok(VERIFY_READ) returns true, in order for sigreturn to be able to read kernel memory that should be inaccessible to the user task. This is currently impossible due to the untranslatable address hole between the TTBR0 and TTBR1 address ranges. Disappearance of the hole between the TTBR0 and TTBR1 mapping ranges would require the VA size for TTBR0 and TTBR1 to grow to at least 55 bits, and either the disabling of tagged pointers for userspace or enabling of tagged pointers for kernel space; none of which is currently envisaged. Even so, it is wrong to use the unprotected user accessors without an accompanying access_ok() check. To avoid the potential for future surprises, this patch does an explicit access_ok() check on the extra data space when parsing an extra_context record.

Currently the regset API doesn't allow for the possibility that regsets (or at least, the amount of meaningful data in a regset) may change in size. In particular, this results in useless padding being added to coredumps if a regset's current size is smaller than its theoretical maximum size. This patch adds a get_size() function to struct user_regset. Individual regset implementations can implement this function to return the current size of the regset data. A regset_size() function is added to provide callers with an abstract interface for determining the size of a regset without needing to know whether the regset is dynamically sized or not. The only affected user of this interface is the ELF coredump code: This patch ports ELF coredump to dump regsets with their actual size in the coredump. This has no effect except for new regsets that are dynamically sized and provide a get_size() implementation.

Today SError is taken using the inv_entry macro that ends up in bad_mode. SError can be used by the RAS Extensions to notify either the OS or firmware of CPU problems, some of which may have been corrected. To allow this handling to be added, add a do_serror() C function that just panic()s. Add the entry.S boiler plate to save/restore the CPU registers and unmask debug exceptions. Future patches may change do_serror() to return if the SError Interrupt was notification of a corrected error.

Following our 'dai' order, irqs should be processed with debug and serror exceptions unmasked. Add a helper to unmask these two, (and fiq for good measure).

el0_sync also unmasks exceptions on a case-by-case basis, debug exceptions are enabled, unless this was a debug exception. Irqs are unmasked for some exception types but not for others. el0_dbg should run with everything masked to prevent us taking a debug exception from do_debug_exception. For the other cases we can unmask everything. This changes the behaviour of fpsimd_{acc,exc} and el0_inv which previously ran with irqs masked. This patch removed the last user of enable_dbg_and_irq, remove it.

el1_sync unmasks exceptions on a case-by-case basis, debug exceptions are unmasked, unless this was a debug exception. IRQs are unmasked for instruction and data aborts only if the interupted context had irqs unmasked. Following our 'dai' order, el1_dbg should run with everything masked. For the other cases we can inherit whatever we interrupted. Add a macro inherit_daif to set daif based on the interrupted pstate.

enable_step_tsk is the only user of disable_dbg, which doesn't respect our 'dai' order for exception masking. enable_step_tsk may enable single-step, so previously needed to mask debug exceptions to prevent us from single-stepping kernel_exit. enable_step_tsk is called at the end of the ret_to_user loop, which has already masked all exceptions so this is no longer needed. Remove disable_dbg, add a comment that enable_step_tsk's caller should have masked debug.

To take RAS Exceptions as quickly as possible we need to keep SError unmasked as much as possible. We need to mask it during kernel_exit as taking an error from this code will overwrite the exception-registers. Adding a naked 'disable_daif' to kernel_exit causes a performance problem for micro-benchmarks that do no real work, (e.g. calling getpid() in a loop). This is because the ret_to_user loop has already masked IRQs so that the TIF_WORK_MASK thread flags can't change underneath it, adding disable_daif is an additional self-synchronising operation. In the future, the RAS APEI code may need to modify the TIF_WORK_MASK flags from an SError, in which case the ret_to_user loop must mask SError while it examines the flags. Disable all exceptions for return to EL1. For return to EL0 get the ret_to_user loop to leave all exceptions masked once it has done its work, this avoids an extra pstate-write.

Remove the local_{async,fiq}_{en,dis}able macros as they don't respect our newly defined order and are only used to set the flags for process context when we bring CPUs online. Add a helper to do this. The IRQ flag varies as we want it masked on the boot CPU until we are ready to handle interrupts. The boot CPU unmasks SError during early boot once it can print an error message. If we can print an error message about SError, we can do the same for FIQ. Debug exceptions are already enabled by __cpu_setup(), which has also configured MDSCR_EL1 to disable MDE and KDE.

Currently SError is always masked in the kernel. To support RAS exceptions using SError on hardware with the v8.2 RAS Extensions we need to unmask SError as much as possible. Let's define an order for masking and unmasking exceptions. 'dai' is memorable and effectively what we have today. Disabling debug exceptions should cause all other exceptions to be masked. Masking SError should mask irq, but not disable debug exceptions. Masking irqs has no side effects for other flags. Keeping to this order makes it easier for entry.S to know which exceptions should be unmasked. FIQ is never expected, but we mask it when we mask debug exceptions, and unmask it at all other times. Given masking debug exceptions masks everything, we don't need macros to save/restore that bit independently. Remove them and switch the last caller over to use the daif calls.

There are a few places where we want to mask all exceptions. Today we do this in a piecemeal fashion, typically we expect the caller to have masked irqs and the arch code masks debug exceptions, ignoring serror which is probably masked. Make it clear that 'mask all exceptions' is the intention by adding helpers to do exactly that. This will let us unmask SError without having to add 'oh and SError' to these paths.
