This patch expands the VA_BITS to 42 when the 64K page configuration is
enabled allowing 2TB kernel linear mapping. Linux still uses 2 levels of
page tables in this configuration with pgd now being a full page.

Our spinlocks are only 32-bit (2x16-bit tickets) and our cmpxchg can

TCR.TBI0 can be used to cause hardware address translation to ignore the
top byte of userspace virtual addresses. Whilst not especially useful in
standard C programs, this can be used by JITs to `tag' pointers with
various pieces of metadata.
This patch enables this bit for AArch64 Linux, and adds a new file to
Documentation/arm64/ which describes some potential caveats when using
tagged virtual addresses.

When using an IOMMU for device mappings, it is necessary to keep a
pointer between the device and the IOMMU to which it is attached in
order to obtain the correct IOMMU when attaching the device to a domain.

similar manner to other architectures (ARM, PowerPC, x86, ...).

Page table entries on ARM64 are 64 bits, and some pte functions such as
pte_dirty return a bitwise-and of a flag with the pte value. If the
flag to be tested resides in the upper 32 bits of the pte, then we run
into the danger of the result being dropped if downcast.
For example:
gather_stats(page, md, pte_dirty(*pte), 1);
where pte_dirty(*pte) is downcast to an int.
This patch adds a double logical invert to all the pte_ accessors to
ensure predictable downcasting.

We have the following means for encoding writable or dirty ptes:
PTE_DIRTY PTE_RDONLY
!pte_dirty && !pte_write 0 1
!pte_dirty && pte_write 0 1
pte_dirty && !pte_write 1 1
pte_dirty && pte_write 1 0
So we can't distinguish between writable clean ptes and read only
ptes. This can cause problems with ptes being incorrectly flagged as
read only when they are writable but not dirty.
This patch introduces a new software bit PTE_WRITE which allows us to
correctly identify writable ptes. PTE_RDONLY is now only clear for
valid ptes where a page is both writable and dirty.

PTE_PROT_NONE means that a pte is present but does not have any
read/write attributes. However, setting the memory type like
pgprot_writecombine() is allowed and such bits overlap with
PTE_PROT_NONE. This causes mmap/munmap issues in drivers that change the
vma->vm_pg_prot on PROT_NONE mappings.
This patch reverts the PTE_FILE/PTE_PROT_NONE shift in commit
59911ca4325d (ARM64: mm: Move PTE_PROT_NONE bit) and moves PTE_PROT_NONE
together with the other software bits.

Under ARM64, PTEs can be broadly categorised as follows:
- Present and valid: Bit #0 is set. The PTE is valid and memory
access to the region may fault.
- Present and invalid: Bit #0 is clear and bit #1 is set.
Represents present memory with PROT_NONE protection. The PTE
is an invalid entry, and the user fault handler will raise a
SIGSEGV.
- Not present (file or swap): Bits #0 and #1 are clear.
Memory represented has been paged out. The PTE is an invalid
entry, and the fault handler will try and re-populate the
memory where necessary.
Huge PTEs are block descriptors that have bit #1 clear. If we wish
to represent PROT_NONE huge PTEs we then run into a problem as
there is no way to distinguish between regular and huge PTEs if we
set bit #1.
To resolve this ambiguity this patch moves PTE_PROT_NONE from
bit #1 to bit #2 and moves PTE_FILE from bit #2 to bit #3. The
number of swap/file bits is reduced by 1 as a consequence, leaving
60 bits for file and swap entries.

If we consider the following code sequence:
my_pte = pte_modify(entry, myprot);
x = pte_write(my_pte);
y = pte_exec(my_pte);
If myprot comes from a PROT_NONE page, then x and y will both be
true which is undesireable behaviour.
This patch sets the no-execute and read-only bits for PAGE_NONE
such that the code above will return false for both x and y.

commit 0d651e4e65e96989f72236bf83bd4c6e55eb6ce4 upstream.
Switching between reading the virtual or physical counters is
problematic, as some core code wants a view of time before we're fully
set up. Using a function pointer and switching the source after the
first read can make time appear to go backwards, and having a check in
the read function is an unfortunate block on what we want to be a fast
path.
Instead, this patch makes us always use the virtual counters. If we're a
guest, or don't have hyp mode, we'll use the virtual timers, and as such
don't care about CNTVOFF as long as it doesn't change in such a way as
to make time appear to travel backwards. As the guest will use the
virtual timers, a (potential) KVM host must use the physical timers
(which can wake up the host even if they fire while a guest is
executing), and hence a host must have CNTVOFF set to zero so as to have
a consistent view of time between the physical timers and virtual
counters.

commit 7b22c03536a539142f931815528d55df455ffe2d upstream.
In ftrace_syscall_enter(),
syscall_get_arguments(..., 0, n, ...)
if (i == 0) { <handle orig_x0> ...; n--;}
memcpy(..., n * sizeof(args[0]));
If 'number of arguments(n)' is zero and 'argument index(i)' is also zero in
syscall_get_arguments(), none of arguments should be copied by memcpy().
Otherwise 'n--' can be a big positive number and unexpected amount of data
will be copied. Tracing system calls which take no argument, say sync(void),
may hit this case and eventually make the system corrupted.
This patch fixes the issue both in syscall_get_arguments() and
syscall_set_arguments().

Add basic CPU topology support to arm64, based on the existing pre-v8
code and some work done by Mark Hambleton. This patch does not
implement any topology discovery support since that should be based on
information from firmware, it merely implements the scaffolding for
integration of topology support in the architecture.
No locking of the topology data is done since it is only modified during
CPU bringup with external serialisation from the SMP code.
The goal is to separate the architecture hookup for providing topology
information from the DT parsing in order to ease review and avoid
blocking the architecture code (which will be built on by other work)
with the DT code review by providing something simple and basic.
Following patches will implement support for interpreting topology
information from MPIDR and for parsing the DT topology bindings for ARM,
similar patches will be needed for ACPI.

Simple typo.

Page table entries on ARM64 are 64 bits, and some pte functions such as
pte_dirty return a bitwise-and of a flag with the pte value. If the
flag to be tested resides in the upper 32 bits of the pte, then we run
into the danger of the result being dropped if downcast.
For example:
gather_stats(page, md, pte_dirty(*pte), 1);
where pte_dirty(*pte) is downcast to an int.
This patch adds a double logical invert to all the pte_ accessors to
ensure predictable downcasting.

We have the following means for encoding writable or dirty ptes:
PTE_DIRTY PTE_RDONLY
!pte_dirty && !pte_write 0 1
!pte_dirty && pte_write 0 1
pte_dirty && !pte_write 1 1
pte_dirty && pte_write 1 0
So we can't distinguish between writable clean ptes and read only
ptes. This can cause problems with ptes being incorrectly flagged as
read only when they are writable but not dirty.
This patch introduces a new software bit PTE_WRITE which allows us to
correctly identify writable ptes. PTE_RDONLY is now only clear for
valid ptes where a page is both writable and dirty.

Expand out the pte manipulation functions. This makes our life easier
when using things like tags and cscope.

Modify the value of PMD_SECT_PROT_NONE to match that of PTE_NONE. This
should have been in commit 3676f9ef5481 (Move PTE_PROT_NONE higher up).

PTE_PROT_NONE means that a pte is present but does not have any
read/write attributes. However, setting the memory type like
pgprot_writecombine() is allowed and such bits overlap with
PTE_PROT_NONE. This causes mmap/munmap issues in drivers that change the
vma->vm_pg_prot on PROT_NONE mappings.
This patch reverts the PTE_FILE/PTE_PROT_NONE shift in commit
59911ca4325d (ARM64: mm: Move PTE_PROT_NONE bit) and moves PTE_PROT_NONE
together with the other software bits.

Bring Transparent HugePage support to ARM. The size of a
transparent huge page depends on the normal page size. A
transparent huge page is always represented as a pmd.
If PAGE_SIZE is 4KB, THPs are 2MB.
If PAGE_SIZE is 64KB, THPs are 512MB.

Add huge page support to ARM64, different huge page sizes are
supported depending on the size of normal pages:
PAGE_SIZE is 4KB:
2MB - (pmds) these can be allocated at any time.
1024MB - (puds) usually allocated on bootup with the command line
with something like: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=6
PAGE_SIZE is 64KB:
512MB - (pmds) usually allocated on bootup via command line.

Under ARM64, PTEs can be broadly categorised as follows:
- Present and valid: Bit #0 is set. The PTE is valid and memory
access to the region may fault.
- Present and invalid: Bit #0 is clear and bit #1 is set.
Represents present memory with PROT_NONE protection. The PTE
is an invalid entry, and the user fault handler will raise a
SIGSEGV.
- Not present (file or swap): Bits #0 and #1 are clear.
Memory represented has been paged out. The PTE is an invalid
entry, and the fault handler will try and re-populate the
memory where necessary.
Huge PTEs are block descriptors that have bit #1 clear. If we wish
to represent PROT_NONE huge PTEs we then run into a problem as
there is no way to distinguish between regular and huge PTEs if we
set bit #1.
To resolve this ambiguity this patch moves PTE_PROT_NONE from
bit #1 to bit #2 and moves PTE_FILE from bit #2 to bit #3. The
number of swap/file bits is reduced by 1 as a consequence, leaving
60 bits for file and swap entries.

If we consider the following code sequence:
my_pte = pte_modify(entry, myprot);
x = pte_write(my_pte);
y = pte_exec(my_pte);
If myprot comes from a PROT_NONE page, then x and y will both be
true which is undesireable behaviour.
This patch sets the no-execute and read-only bits for PAGE_NONE
such that the code above will return false for both x and y.
