After each CPU has been started, we iterate through a list of
CPU features or bugs to detect CPUs which need (or could benefit
from) kernel code patches.
For each feature/bug there is a function which checks if that
particular CPU is affected. We will later provide some more generic
functions for common things like testing for certain MIDR ranges.
We do this for every CPU to cover big.LITTLE systems properly as
well.
If a certain feature/bug has been detected, the capability bit will
be set, so that later the call to apply_alternatives() will trigger
the actual code patching.

With a blatant copy of some x86 bits we introduce the alternative
runtime patching "framework" to arm64.
This is quite basic for now and we only provide the functions we need
at this time.
This is connected to the newly introduced feature bits.

For taking note if at least one CPU in the system needs a bug
workaround or would benefit from a code optimization, we create a new
bitmap to hold (artificial) feature bits.
Since elf_hwcap is part of the userland ABI, we keep it alone and
introduce a new data structure for that (along with some accessors).

update_insn_emulation_mode() returns 0 on success, so we should be
treating any non-zero values as failure, rather than the other way
around. Otherwise, writes to the sysctl file controlling the emulation
are ignored and immediately rolled back.

Translation faults that occur due to the input address being outside
of the address range mapped by the relevant base register are reported
as level 0 faults in ESR.DFSC.
If the faulting access cannot be resolved by the kernel (e.g. because
it is not mapped by a vma), then we report "input address range fault"
on the console. This was fine until we added support for 48-bit VAs,
which actually place PGDs at level 0 and can trigger faults for invalid
addresses that are within the range of the page tables.
This patch changes the string to report "level 0 translation fault",
which is far less confusing.

Having the instruction emulation submenu underneath "platform selection"

The CP15 barrier instructions (CP15ISB, CP15DSB and CP15DMB) are
deprecated in the ARMv7 architecture, superseded by ISB, DSB and DMB
instructions respectively. Some implementations may provide the
ability to disable the CP15 barriers by disabling the CP15BEN bit in
SCTLR_EL1. If not enabled, the encodings for these instructions become
undefined.
To support legacy software using these instructions, this patch
register hooks to -
* emulate CP15 barriers and warn the user about their use
* toggle CP15BEN in SCTLR_EL1

The SWP instruction was deprecated in the ARMv6 architecture. The
ARMv7 multiprocessing extensions mandate that SWP/SWPB instructions
are treated as undefined from reset, with the ability to enable them
through the System Control Register SW bit. With ARMv8, the option to
enable these instructions through System Control Register was dropped
as well.
To support legacy applications using these instructions, port the
emulation of the SWP and SWPB instructions from the arm port to arm64.

Typically, providing support for legacy instructions requires
emulating the behaviour of instructions whose encodings have become
undefined. If the instructions haven't been removed from the
architecture, there maybe an option in the implementation to turn
on/off the support for these instructions.
Create common infrastructure to support legacy instruction
emulation. In addition to emulation, also provide an option to support
hardware execution when supported. The default execution mode (one of
undef, emulate, hw exeuction) is dependent on the state of the
instruction (deprecated or obsolete) in the architecture and
can specified at the time of registering the instruction handlers. The
runtime state of the emulation can be controlled by writing to
individual nodes in sysctl. The expected default behaviour is
documented as part of this patch.

The generic this_cpu operations disable interrupts to ensure that the
requested operation is protected from pre-emption. For arm64, this is
overkill and can hurt throughput and latency.
This patch provides arm64 specific implementations for the this_cpu
operations. Rather than disable interrupts, we use the exclusive
monitor or atomic operations as appropriate.
The following operations are implemented: add, add_return, and, or,
read, write, xchg. We also wire up a cmpxchg implementation from
cmpxchg.h.
Testing was performed using the percpu_test module and hackbench on a
Juno board running 3.18-rc4.

We currently allocate different levels of page tables with a variety of
differing flags, and the PGALLOC_GFP flags, intended for use when
allocating any level of page table, are only used for ptes in
pte_alloc_one. On x86, PGALLOC_GFP is used for all page table
allocations.
Currently the major differences are:
* __GFP_NOTRACK -- Needed to ensure page tables are always accessible in
the presence of kmemcheck to prevent recursive faults. Currently
kmemcheck cannot be selected for arm64.
* __GFP_REPEAT -- Causes the allocator to try to reclaim pages and retry
upon a failure to allocate.
* __GFP_ZERO -- Sometimes passed explicitly, sometimes zalloc variants
are used.
While we've no encountered issues so far, it would be preferable to be
consistent. This patch ensures all levels of table are allocated in the
same manner, with PGALLOC_GFP.

Since commit 8a0a9bd4db63 ('random: make get_random_int() more
random'), get_random_int() returns a random value for each call,
so comment and hack introduced in mmap_rnd() as part of commit
1d18c47c735e ('arm64: MMU fault handling and page table management')
are incorrects.
Commit 1d18c47c735e seems to use the same hack introduced by
commit a5adc91a4b44 ('powerpc: Ensure random space between stack
and mmaps'), latter copied in commit 5a0efea09f42 ('sparc64: Sharpen
address space randomization calculations.').
But both architectures were cleaned up as part of commit
fa8cbaaf5a68 ('powerpc+sparc64/mm: Remove hack in mmap randomize
layout') as hack is no more needed since commit 8a0a9bd4db63.
So the present patch removes the comment and the hack around
get_random_int() on AArch64's mmap_rnd().

On architectures with hardware broadcasting of TLB invalidation messages
, it makes sense to reduce the range of the mmu_gather structure when
unmapping page ranges based on the dirty address information passed to
tlb_remove_tlb_entry.
arm64 already does this by directly manipulating the start/end fields
of the gather structure, but this confuses the generic code which
does not expect these fields to change and can end up calculating
invalid, negative ranges when forcing a flush in zap_pte_range.
This patch moves the minimal range calculation out of the arm64 code
and into the generic implementation, simplifying zap_pte_range in the
process (which no longer needs to care about start/end, since they will
point to the appropriate ranges already). With the range being tracked
by core code, the need_flush flag is dropped in favour of checking that
the end of the range has actually been set.

The push/pop instructions can be suboptimal when saving/restoring large
amounts of data to/from the stack, for example on entry/exit from the
kernel. This is because:
(1) They act on descending addresses (i.e. the newly decremented sp),
which may defeat some hardware prefetchers
(2) They introduce an implicit dependency between each instruction, as
the sp has to be updated in order to resolve the address of the
next access.
This patch removes the push/pop instructions from our kernel entry/exit
macros in favour of ldp/stp plus offset.

Commit d7a49086f263164a (arm64: cpuinfo: print info for all CPUs)
attempted to clean up /proc/cpuinfo, but due to concerns regarding
further changes was reverted in commit 5e39977edf6500fd (Revert "arm64:
cpuinfo: print info for all CPUs").
There are two major issues with the arm64 /proc/cpuinfo format
currently:
* The "Features" line describes (only) the 64-bit hwcaps, which is
problematic for some 32-bit applications which attempt to parse it. As
the same names are used for analogous ISA features (e.g. aes) despite
these generally being architecturally unrelated, it is not possible to
simply append the 64-bit and 32-bit hwcaps in a manner that might not
be misleading to some applications.
Various potential solutions have appeared in vendor kernels. Typically
the format of the Features line varies depending on whether the task
is 32-bit.
* Information is only printed regarding a single CPU. This does not
match the ARM format, and does not provide sufficient information in
big.LITTLE systems where CPUs are heterogeneous. The CPU information
printed is queried from the current CPU's registers, which is racy
w.r.t. cross-cpu migration.
This patch attempts to solve these issues. The following changes are
made:
* When a task with a LINUX32 personality attempts to read /proc/cpuinfo,
the "Features" line contains the decoded 32-bit hwcaps, as with the
arm port. Otherwise, the decoded 64-bit hwcaps are shown. This aligns
with the behaviour of COMPAT_UTS_MACHINE and COMPAT_ELF_PLATFORM. In
the absense of compat support, the Features line is empty.
The set of hwcaps injected into a task's auxval are unaffected.
* Properties are printed per-cpu, as with the ARM port. The per-cpu
information is queried from pre-recorded cpu information (as used by
the sanity checks).
* As with the previous attempt at fixing up /proc/cpuinfo, the hardware
field is removed. The only users so far are 32-bit applications tied
to particular boards, so no portable applications should be affected,
and this should prevent future tying to particular boards.
The following differences remain:
* No model_name is printed, as this cannot be queried from the hardware
and cannot be provided in a stable fashion. Use of the CPU
{implementor,variant,part,revision} fields is sufficient to identify a
CPU and is portable across arm and arm64.
* The following system-wide properties are not provided, as they are not
possible to provide generally. Programs relying on these are already
tied to particular (32-bit only) boards:
- Hardware
- Revision
- Serial
No software has yet been identified for which these remaining
differences are problematic.

In certain debugging scenarios it's useful to know the physical ID (i.e.
the MPIDR_EL1.Aff* fields) of the boot CPU, but we don't currently log
this as we do for 32-bit ARM kernels.
This patch makes the kernel log the physical ID of the boot CPU early in
the boot process. The CPU logical map initialisation is folded in to
smp_setup_processor_id (which contrary to its name is also called by UP
kernels). This is called before setup_arch, so should not adversely
affect existing cpu_logical_map users.

The arm64 architecture has the ability to exclusively load and store
a pair of registers from an address (ldxp/stxp). Also the SLUB can take
advantage of a cmpxchg_double implementation to avoid taking some
locks.
This patch provides an implementation of cmpxchg_double for 64-bit
pairs, and activates the logic required for the SLUB to use these
functions (HAVE_ALIGNED_STRUCT_PAGE and HAVE_CMPXCHG_DOUBLE).
Also definitions of this_cpu_cmpxchg_8 and this_cpu_cmpxchg_double_8
are wired up to cmpxchg_local and cmpxchg_double_local (rather than the
stock implementations that perform non-atomic operations with
interrupts disabled) as they are used by the SLUB.

The DMTF SMBIOS reference spec v3.0.0 defines a new 64-bit entry point,
which enables support for SMBIOS structure tables residing at a physical
offset over 4 GB. This is especially important for upcoming arm64
platforms whose system RAM resides entirely above the 4 GB boundary.
For the UEFI case, this code attempts to detect the new SMBIOS 3.0
header magic at the offset passed in the SMBIOS3_TABLE_GUID UEFI
configuration table. If this configuration table is not provided, or
if we fail to parse the header, we fall back to using the legacy
SMBIOS_TABLE_GUID configuration table. This is in line with the spec,
that allows both configuration tables to be provided, but mandates that
they must point to the same structure table, unless the version pointed
to by the 64-bit entry point is a superset of the 32-bit one.
For the non-UEFI case, the detection logic is modified to look for the
SMBIOS 3.0 header magic before it looks for the legacy header magic.
Note that this patch is based on version 3.0.0d [draft] of the
specification, which is expected not to deviate from the final version
in ways that would affect the correctness of this implementation.

This adds support to the UEFI side for detecting the presence of
a SMBIOS 3.0 64-bit entry point. This allows the actual SMBIOS
structure table to reside at a physical offset over 4 GB, which
cannot be supported by the legacy SMBIOS 32-bit entry point.
Since the firmware can legally provide both entry points, store
the SMBIOS 3.0 entry point in a separate variable, and let the
DMI decoding layer decide which one will be used.

Instead of reserving the memory regions based on which types we know

free for general use by the OS:
EFI_LOADER_CODE
EFI_LOADER_DATA
EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE
EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA
EFI_CONVENTIONAL_MEMORY
Note that this also fixes a problem with the original code, which would
misidentify a EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA region as not reserved if it
does not have the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute set. However, it is
perfectly legal for the firmware not to request a virtual mapping for
EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA regions that contain configuration tables, in
which case the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute would not be set.

However, the UEFI spec 2.1.1 states the following regarding PE/COFF
image loading:
"A UEFI image is loaded into memory through the LoadImage() Boot
Service. This service loads an image with a PE32+ format into memory.
This PE32+ loader is required to load all sections of the PE32+ image
into memory."
In other words, it is /not/ required to load parts of the image that are
not covered by a PE/COFF section, so it may not have loaded the header
at the expected offset, as it is not covered by any PE/COFF section.
So instead, jump to 'stext' directly, which is at the base of the
PE/COFF .text section, by supplying a symbol 'stext_offset' to
efi-entry.o which contains the relative offset of stext into the Image.
Also replace other open coded calculations of the same value with a
reference to 'stext_offset'

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson:
"Another week, another small batch of fixes.
Most of these make zynq, socfpga and sunxi platforms work a bit
better:
- due to new requirements for regulators, DWMMC on socfpga broke past
v3.17
- SMP spinup fix for socfpga
- a few DT fixes for zynq
- another option (FIXED_REGULATOR) for sunxi is needed that used to
be selected by other options but no longer is.
- a couple of small DT fixes for at91
- ...and a couple for i.MX"

Commit 78b81f4666fb ("ARM: dts: imx28-evk: Run I2C0 at 400kHz") caused issues
when doing the following sequence in loop:
- Boot the kernel
- Perform audio playback
- Reboot the system via 'reboot' command
In many times the audio card cannot be probed, which causes playback to fail.
After restoring to the original i2c0 frequency of 100kHz there is no such
problem anymore.
This reverts commit 78b81f4666fbb22a20b1e63e5baf197ad2e90e88.

Fix a typo error, the "emi" names refer to the eim clocks.
The change fixes typo in EIM and EIM_SLOW pre-output dividers and
selectors clock names. Notably EIM_SLOW clock itself is named correctly.
