2015-12-21arm64: kernel: enforce pmuserenr_el0 initialization and restoreLorenzo Pieralisi
The pmuserenr_el0 register value is architecturally UNKNOWN on reset. Current kernel code resets that register value iff the core pmu device is correctly probed in the kernel. On platforms with missing DT pmu nodes (or disabled perf events in the kernel), the pmu is not probed, therefore the pmuserenr_el0 register is not reset in the kernel, which means that its value retains the reset value that is architecturally UNKNOWN (system may run with eg pmuserenr_el0 == 0x1, which means that PMU counters access is available at EL0, which must be disallowed). This patch adds code that resets pmuserenr_el0 on cold boot and restores it on core resume from shutdown, so that the pmuserenr_el0 setup is always enforced in the kernel.

2015-12-11arm64: mm: place __cpu_setup in .textMark Rutland
We drop __cpu_setup in .text.init, which ends up being part of .text. The .text.init section was a legacy section name which has been unused elsewhere for a long time. The ".text.init" name is misleading if read as a synonym for ".init.text". Any CPU may execute __cpu_setup before turning the MMU on, so it should simply live in .text. Remove the pointless section assignment. This will leave __cpu_setup in the .text section.

2015-10-07arm64: mm: rewrite ASID allocator and MM context-switching codeWill Deacon
Our current switch_mm implementation suffers from a number of problems: (1) The ASID allocator relies on IPIs to synchronise the CPUs on a rollover event (2) Because of (1), we cannot allocate ASIDs with interrupts disabled and therefore make use of a TIF_SWITCH_MM flag to postpone the actual switch to finish_arch_post_lock_switch (3) We run context switch with a reserved (invalid) TTBR0 value, even though the ASID and pgd are updated atomically (4) We take a global spinlock (cpu_asid_lock) during context-switch (5) We use h/w broadcast TLB operations when they are not required (e.g. in flush_context) This patch addresses these problems by rewriting the ASID algorithm to match the bitmap-based arch/arm/ implementation more closely. This in turn allows us to remove much of the complications surrounding switch_mm, including the ugly thread flag.

2015-08-05arm64: mm: ensure patched kernel text is fetched from PoUWill Deacon
The arm64 booting document requires that the bootloader has cleaned the kernel image to the PoC. However, when a CPU re-enters the kernel due to either a CPU hotplug "on" event or resuming from a low-power state (e.g. cpuidle), the kernel text may in-fact be dirty at the PoU due to things like alternative patching or even module loading. Thanks to I-cache speculation with the MMU off, stale instructions could be fetched prior to enabling the MMU, potentially leading to crashes when executing regions of code that have been modified at runtime. This patch addresses the issue by ensuring that the local I-cache is invalidated immediately after a CPU has enabled its MMU but before jumping out of the identity mapping. Any stale instructions fetched from the PoC will then be discarded and refetched correctly from the PoU. Patching kernel text executed prior to the MMU being enabled is prohibited, so the early entry code will always be clean.

2015-07-27arm64: Add support for hardware updates of the access and dirty pte bitsCatalin Marinas
The ARMv8.1 architecture extensions introduce support for hardware updates of the access and dirty information in page table entries. With TCR_EL1.HA enabled, when the CPU accesses an address with the PTE_AF bit cleared in the page table, instead of raising an access flag fault the CPU sets the actual page table entry bit. To ensure that kernel modifications to the page tables do not inadvertently revert a change introduced by hardware updates, the exclusive monitor (ldxr/stxr) is adopted in the pte accessors. When TCR_EL1.HD is enabled, a write access to a memory location with the DBM (Dirty Bit Management) bit set in the corresponding pte automatically clears the read-only bit (AP[2]). Such DBM bit maps onto the Linux PTE_WRITE bit and to check whether a writable (DBM set) page is dirty, the kernel tests the PTE_RDONLY bit. In order to allow read-only and dirty pages, the kernel needs to preserve the software dirty bit. The hardware dirty status is transferred to the software dirty bit in ptep_set_wrprotect() (using load/store exclusive loop) and pte_modify().

2015-05-19arm64: kill flush_cache_all()Mark Rutland
The documented semantics of flush_cache_all are not possible to provide for arm64 (short of flushing the entire physical address space by VA), and there are currently no users; KVM uses VA maintenance exclusively, cpu_reset is never called, and the only two users outside of arch code cannot be built for arm64. While cpu_soft_reset and related functions (which call flush_cache_all) were thought to be useful for kexec, their current implementations only serve to mask bugs. For correctness kexec will need to perform maintenance by VA anyway to account for system caches, line migration, and other subtleties of the cache architecture. As the extent of this cache maintenance will be kexec-specific, it should probably live in the kexec code. This patch removes flush_cache_all, and related unused components, preventing further abuse.

2015-03-23arm64: mm: increase VA range of identity mapArd Biesheuvel
The page size and the number of translation levels, and hence the supported virtual address range, are build-time configurables on arm64 whose optimal values are use case dependent. However, in the current implementation, if the system's RAM is located at a very high offset, the virtual address range needs to reflect that merely because the identity mapping, which is only used to enable or disable the MMU, requires the extended virtual range to map the physical memory at an equal virtual offset. This patch relaxes that requirement, by increasing the number of translation levels for the identity mapping only, and only when actually needed, i.e., when system RAM's offset is found to be out of reach at runtime.

2015-01-27arm64: kernel: remove ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND config optionLorenzo Pieralisi
ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND config option was introduced to make code providing context save/restore selectable only on platforms requiring power management capabilities. Currently ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND depends on the PM_SLEEP config option which in turn is set by the SUSPEND config option. The introduction of CPU_IDLE for arm64 requires that code configured by ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND (context save/restore) should be compiled in in order to enable the CPU idle driver to rely on CPU operations carrying out context save/restore. The ARM64_CPUIDLE config option (ARM64 generic idle driver) is therefore forced to select ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND, even if there may be (ie PM_SLEEP) failed dependencies, which is not a clean way of handling the kernel configuration option. For these reasons, this patch removes the ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND config option and makes the context save/restore dependent on CPU_PM, which is selected whenever either SUSPEND or CPU_IDLE are configured, cleaning up dependencies in the process. This way, code previously configured through ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND is compiled in whenever a power management subsystem requires it to be present in the kernel (SUSPEND || CPU_IDLE), which is the behaviour expected on ARM64 kernels. The cpu_suspend and cpu_init_idle CPU operations are added only if CPU_IDLE is selected, since they are CPU_IDLE specific methods and should be grouped and defined accordingly. PSCI CPU operations are updated to reflect the introduced changes.

2014-03-04arm64: remove unnecessary cache flush at bootMark Rutland
Currently we flush the entire dcache at boot within __cpu_setup, but this is unnecessary as the booting protocol demands that the dcache is invalid and off upon entering the kernel. The presence of the cache flush only serves to hide bugs in bootloaders, and is not safe in the presence of SMP. In an SMP boot scenario the CPUs enter coherency outside of the kernel, and the primary CPU enables its caches before bringing up secondary CPUs. Therefore if any secondary CPU has an entry in its cache (in violation of the boot protocol), the primary CPU might snoop it even if the secondary CPU's cache is disabled. The boot-time cache flush only serves to hide a firmware bug, and slows down a cpu boot unnecessarily. This patch removes the unnecessary boot-time cache flush.

Memory for the context is passed as parameter to both cpu_do_suspend and cpu_do_resume functions, and allows the callers to implement context allocation as they deem fit.

This is required to prevent clearing of PSTATE.D on the interrupt entry path, which could result in spurious debug exceptions before we've got round to resetting things like the hardware breakpoints registers to a sane state.
