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.

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.

ILP32 series [1] introduces the dependency on <asm/is_compat.h> for
TASK_SIZE macro. Which in turn requires <asm/thread_info.h>, and
<asm/thread_info.h> include <asm/memory.h>, giving a circular dependency,
because TASK_SIZE is currently located in <asm/memory.h>.
In other architectures, TASK_SIZE is defined in <asm/processor.h>, and
moving TASK_SIZE there fixes the problem.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mark/linux into for-next/core

arm64: remove __die()'s stack dump
|
|
For historical reasons, we leave the top 16 bytes of our task and IRQ
stacks unused, a practice used to ensure that the SP can always be
masked to find the base of the current stack (historically, where
thread_info could be found).
However, this is not necessary, as:
* When an exception is taken from a task stack, we decrement the SP by
S_FRAME_SIZE and stash the exception registers before we compare the
SP against the task stack. In such cases, the SP must be at least
S_FRAME_SIZE below the limit, and can be safely masked to determine
whether the task stack is in use.
* When transitioning to an IRQ stack, we'll place a dummy frame onto the
IRQ stack before enabling asynchronous exceptions, or executing code
we expect to trigger faults. Thus, if an exception is taken from the
IRQ stack, the SP must be at least 16 bytes below the limit.
* We no longer mask the SP to find the thread_info, which is now found
via sp_el0. Note that historically, the offset was critical to ensure
that cpu_switch_to() found the correct stack for new threads that
hadn't yet executed ret_from_fork().
Given that, this initial offset serves no purpose, and can be removed.
This brings us in-line with other architectures (e.g. x86) which do not
rely on this masking.

The -1 "no syscall" value is written in various ways, shared with
the user ABI in some places, and generally obscure.
This patch attempts to make things a little more consistent and
readable by replacing all these uses with a single #define. A
couple of symbolic helpers are provided to clarify the intent
further.
Because the in-syscall check in do_signal() is changed from >= 0 to
!= NO_SYSCALL by this patch, different behaviour may be observable
if syscallno is set to values less than -1 by a tracer. However,
this is not different from the behaviour that is already observable
if a tracer sets syscallno to a value >= __NR_(compat_)syscalls.
It appears that this can cause spurious syscall restarting, but
that is not a new behaviour either, and does not appear harmful.

The upper 32 bits of the syscallno field in thread_struct are
handled inconsistently, being sometimes zero extended and sometimes
sign-extended. In fact, only the lower 32 bits seem to have any
real significance for the behaviour of the code: it's been OK to
handle the upper bits inconsistently because they don't matter.
Currently, the only place I can find where those bits are
significant is in calling trace_sys_enter(), which may be
unintentional: for example, if a compat tracer attempts to cancel a
syscall by passing -1 to (COMPAT_)PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL at the
syscall-enter-stop, it will be traced as syscall 4294967295
rather than -1 as might be expected (and as occurs for a native
tracer doing the same thing). Elsewhere, reads of syscallno cast
it to an int or truncate it.
There's also a conspicuous amount of code and casting to bodge
around the fact that although semantically an int, syscallno is
stored as a u64.
Let's not pretend any more.
In order to preserve the stp x instruction that stores the syscall
number in entry.S, this patch special-cases the layout of struct
pt_regs for big endian so that the newly 32-bit syscallno field
maps onto the low bits of the stored value. This is not beautiful,
but benchmarking of the getpid syscall on Juno suggests indicates a
minor slowdown if the stp is split into an stp x and stp w.

When reading current's user-writable TLS register (which occurs
when dumping core for native tasks), it is possible that userspace
has modified it since the time the task was last scheduled out.
The new TLS register value is not guaranteed to have been written
immediately back to thread_struct in this case.
As a result, a coredump can capture stale data for this register.
Reading the register for a stopped task via ptrace is unaffected.
For native tasks, this patch explicitly flushes the TPIDR_EL0
register back to thread_struct before dumping when operating on
current, thus ensuring that coredump contents are up to date. For
compat tasks, the TLS register is not user-writable and so cannot
be out of sync, so no flush is required in compat_tls_get().

Since its introduction, the UAO enable call was broken, and useless.
commit 2a6dcb2b5f3e ("arm64: cpufeature: Schedule enable() calls instead
of calling them via IPI"), fixed the framework so that these calls
are scheduled, so that they can modify PSTATE.
Now it is just useless. Remove it. UAO is enabled by the code patching
which causes get_user() and friends to use the 'ldtr' family of
instructions. This relies on the PSTATE.UAO bit being set to match
addr_limit, which we do in uao_thread_switch() called via __switch_to().
All that is needed to enable UAO is patch the code, and call schedule().
__apply_alternatives_multi_stop() calls stop_machine() when it modifies
the kernel text to enable the alternatives, (including the UAO code in
uao_thread_switch()). Once stop_machine() has finished __switch_to() is
called to reschedule the original task, this causes PSTATE.UAO to be set
appropriately. An explicit enable() call is not needed.

For spinning loops people do often use barrier() or cpu_relax().
For most architectures cpu_relax and barrier are the same, but on
some architectures cpu_relax can add some latency.
For example on power,sparc64 and arc, cpu_relax can shift the CPU
towards other hardware threads in an SMT environment.
On s390 cpu_relax does even more, it uses an hypercall to the
hypervisor to give up the timeslice.
In contrast to the SMT yielding this can result in larger latencies.
In some places this latency is unwanted, so another variant
"cpu_relax_lowlatency" was introduced. Before this is used in more
and more places, lets revert the logic and provide a cpu_relax_yield
that can be called in places where yielding is more important than
latency. By default this is the same as cpu_relax on all architectures.

The enable() call for a cpufeature/errata is called using on_each_cpu().
This issues a cross-call IPI to get the work done. Implicitly, this
stashes the running PSTATE in SPSR when the CPU receives the IPI, and
restores it when we return. This means an enable() call can never modify
PSTATE.
To allow PAN to do this, change the on_each_cpu() call to use
stop_machine(). This schedules the work on each CPU which allows
us to modify PSTATE.
This involves changing the protype of all the enable() functions.
enable_cpu_capabilities() is called during boot and enables the feature
on all online CPUs. This path now uses stop_machine(). CPU features for
hotplug'd CPUs are enabled by verify_local_cpu_features() which only
acts on the local CPU, and can already modify the running PSTATE as it
is called from secondary_start_kernel().

The ARM errata 819472, 826319, 827319 and 824069 for affected
Cortex-A53 cores demand to promote "dc cvau" instructions to
"dc civac". Since we allow userspace to also emit those instructions,
we should make sure that "dc cvau" gets promoted there too.
So lets grasp the nettle here and actually trap every userland cache
maintenance instruction once we detect at least one affected core in
the system.
We then emulate the instruction by executing it on behalf of userland,
promoting "dc cvau" to "dc civac" on the way and injecting access
fault back into userspace.

'User Access Override' is a new ARMv8.2 feature which allows the
unprivileged load and store instructions to be overridden to behave in

This patch converts {get,put}_user() and friends to use ldtr*/sttr*
instructions - so that they can only access EL0 memory, then enables
UAO when fs==KERNEL_DS so that these functions can access kernel memory.
This allows user space's read/write permissions to be checked against the

read/write permissions.

At the moment we run through the arm64_features capability list for
each CPU and set the capability if one of the CPU supports it. This
could be problematic in a heterogeneous system with differing capabilities.
Delay the CPU feature checks until all the enabled CPUs are up(i.e,
smp_cpus_done(), so that we can make better decisions based on the
overall system capability. Once we decide and advertise the capabilities
the alternatives can be applied. From this state, we cannot roll back
a feature to disabled based on the values from a new hotplugged CPU,
due to the runtime patching and other reasons. So, for all new CPUs,
we need to make sure that they have the established system capabilities.
Failing which, we bring the CPU down, preventing it from turning online.
Once the capabilities are decided, any new CPU booting up goes through
verification to ensure that it has all the enabled capabilities and also
invokes the respective enable() method on the CPU.
The CPU errata checks are not delayed and is still executed per-CPU
to detect the respective capabilities. If we ever come across a non-errata
capability that needs to be checked on each-CPU, we could introduce them via
a new capability table(or introduce a flag), which can be processed per CPU.
The next patch will make the feature checks use the system wide
safe value of a feature register.
NOTE: The enable() methods associated with the capability is scheduled
on all the CPUs (which is the only use case at the moment). If we need
a different type of 'enable()' which only needs to be run once on any CPU,
we should be able to handle that when needed.

The KSTK_ESP macro is used to determine the user stack pointer for a
given task. In particular, this is used to to report the '[stack]' VMA

This patch fixes the macro to use user_stack_pointer instead of directly
returning sp. This means that we report w13 instead of sp, since the

The arch_mutex_cpu_relax() function, introduced by 34b133f, is
hacky and ugly. It was added a few years ago to address the fact
that common cpu_relax() calls include yielding on s390, and thus
impact the optimistic spinning functionality of mutexes. Nowadays
we use this function well beyond mutexes: rwsem, qrwlock, mcs and
lockref. Since the macro that defines the call is in the mutex header,
any users must include mutex.h and the naming is misleading as well.
This patch (i) renames the call to cpu_relax_lowlatency ("relax, but
only if you can do it with very low latency") and (ii) defines it in
each arch's asm/processor.h local header, just like for regular cpu_relax
functions. On all archs, except s390, cpu_relax_lowlatency is simply cpu_relax,
and thus we can take it out of mutex.h. While this can seem redundant,
I believe it is a good choice as it allows us to move out arch specific
logic from generic locking primitives and enables future(?) archs to
transparently define it, similarly to System Z.

For AArch32, bit 11 (WnR) of the FSR/ESR register is set when the fault
was caused by a write access and applications like Qemu rely on such
information being provided in sigcontext. This patch introduces the
ESR_EL1 tracking for the arm64 kernel faults and sets bit 11 accordingly
in compat sigcontext.

Booting on a system with all of its memory above the 4GB boundary breaks
for two reasons:
(1) We still try to create a non-empty DMA32 zone
(2) no-bootmem limits allocations to 0xffffffff
This patch fixes these issues for ARM64.

For historical reasons, ARM used to set r0-r2 in start_thread() to the
first values on the user stack when starting a new user application. The
same logic has been inherited in AArch64. The x0 register is overridden
by the sys_execve() return value so it's always zero on success. The x1
and x2 registers are ignored by AArch64 and EABI AArch32 applications,
so we can safely remove the register setting for both native and compat
user space.
This also fixes a potential fault with the kernel accessing user space
stack directly.

This patch adds AArch64 CPU specific functionality. It assumes that the
implementation is generic to AArch64 and does not require specific
identification. Different CPU implementations may require the setting of
various ACTLR_EL1 bits but such information is not currently available
and it should ideally be pushed to firmware.
