Whilst our defconfig is certainly usable, there are a few extra features
we can enable to make it considerably more useful, particularly if
people are using it for testing:
- KVM
- SWAP
- Hugepages
- ARMv8 crypto
This patch enables these options in our defconfig. Note that the ordering
has changed slightly, since this is the result of a new savedefconfig
make target.

If one process calls sys_reboot and that process then stops other
CPUs while those CPUs are within a spin_lock() region we can
potentially encounter a deadlock scenario like below.
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
spin_lock(my_lock)
smp_send_stop()
<send IPI> handle_IPI()
disable_preemption/irqs
while(1);
<PREEMPT>
spin_lock(my_lock) <--- Waits forever
We shouldn't attempt to run any other tasks after we send a stop
IPI to a CPU so disable preemption so that this task runs to
completion. We use local_irq_disable() here for cross-arch
consistency with x86.

This patch ports most of commit 19ab428f4b79 "ARM: 7759/1: decouple CPU
offlining from reboot/shutdown" by Stephen Warren from arch/arm to
arch/arm64.
machine_shutdown() is a hook for kexec. Add a comment saying so, since
it isn't obvious from the function name.
Halt, power-off, and restart have different requirements re: stopping
secondary CPUs than kexec has. The former simply require the secondary
CPUs to be quiesced somehow, whereas kexec requires them to be
completely non-operational, so that no matter where the kexec target
images are written in RAM, they won't influence operation of the
secondary CPUS,which could happen if the CPUs were still executing some
kind of pin loop. To this end, modify machine_halt, power_off, and
restart to call smp_send_stop() directly, rather than calling
machine_shutdown().
In machine_shutdown(), replace the call to smp_send_stop() with a call
to disable_nonboot_cpus(). This completely disables all but one CPU,
thus satisfying the kexec requirements a couple paragraphs above.

Support for arch_irq_work_raise() was missing from
arm64 (a prerequisite for FULL_NOHZ).
This patch is based on the arm32 patch ARM 7872/1.
commit bf18525fd793101df42a1344ecc48b49b62e48c9
Author: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org>
Date: Tue Oct 29 20:32:56 2013 +0100
ARM: 7872/1: Support arch_irq_work_raise() via self IPIs
By default, IRQ work is run from the tick interrupt (see
irq_work_run() in update_process_times()). When we're in full
NOHZ mode, restarting the tick requires the use of IRQ work and
if the only place we run IRQ work is in the tick interrupt we
have an unbreakable cycle. Implement arch_irq_work_raise() via
self IPIs to break this cycle and get the tick started again.
Note that we implement this via IPIs which are only available on
SMP builds. This shouldn't be a problem because full NOHZ is only
supported on SMP builds anyway.

Add support for parsing the explicit topology bindings to discover the

As a legacy of the way 32 bit ARM did things the topology code uses a null
topology map by default and then overwrites it by mapping cores with no
information to a cluster by themselves later. In order to make it simpler
to reset things as part of recovering from parse failures in firmware
information directly set this configuration on init. A core will always be
its own sibling so there should be no risk of confusion with firmware
provided information.

This adds ARMv8 implementations of AES in ECB, CBC, CTR and XTS modes,
both for ARMv8 with Crypto Extensions and for plain ARMv8 NEON.
The Crypto Extensions version can only run on ARMv8 implementations that
have support for these optional extensions.
The plain NEON version is a table based yet time invariant implementation.
All S-box substitutions are performed in parallel, leveraging the wide range
of ARMv8's tbl/tbx instructions, and the huge NEON register file, which can
comfortably hold the entire S-box and still have room to spare for doing the
actual computations.
The key expansion routines were borrowed from aes_generic.

Some kernel files may include both linux/compat.h and asm/compat.h directly
or indirectly. Since both header files contain is_compat_task() under
!CONFIG_COMPAT, compiling them with !CONFIG_COMPAT will eventually fail.
Such files include kernel/auditsc.c, kernel/seccomp.c and init/do_mountfs.c
(do_mountfs.c may read asm/compat.h via asm/ftrace.h once ftrace is
implemented).
So this patch proactively
1) removes is_compat_task() under !CONFIG_COMPAT from asm/compat.h
2) replaces asm/compat.h to linux/compat.h in kernel/*.c,
but asm/compat.h is still necessary in ptrace.c and process.c because
they use is_compat_thread().

Since mdscr_el1 is part of the debug register group, it is highly likely
to be trapped by a hypervisor to prevent virtual machines from debugging
(buggering?) each other. Unfortunately, this absolutely destroys our
performance, since we access the register on many of our low-level
fault handling paths to keep track of the various debug state machines.
This patch removes our dependency on mdscr_el1 in the case that debugging
is not being used. More specifically we:
- Use TIF_SINGLESTEP to indicate that a task is stepping at EL0 and
avoid disabling step in the MDSCR when we don't need to.
MDSCR_EL1.SS handling is moved to kernel_entry, when trapping from
userspace.
- Ensure debug exceptions are re-enabled on *all* exception entry
paths, even the debug exception handling path (where we re-enable
exceptions after invoking the handler). Since we can now rely on
MDSCR_EL1.SS being cleared by the entry code, exception handlers can
usually enable debug immediately before enabling interrupts.
- Remove all debug exception unmasking from ret_to_user and
el1_preempt, since we will never get here with debug exceptions
masked.
This results in a slight change to kernel debug behaviour, where we now
step into interrupt handlers and data aborts from EL1 when debugging the
kernel, which is actually a useful thing to do. A side-effect of this is
that it *does* potentially prevent stepping off {break,watch}points when
there is a high-frequency interrupt source (e.g. a timer), so a debugger
would need to use either breakpoints or manually disable interrupts to
get around this issue.
With this patch applied, guest performance is restored under KVM when
debug register accesses are trapped (and we get a measurable performance
increase on the host on Cortex-A57 too).

set_cpu_boot_mode_flag is used to identify which exception levels are
encountered across the system by CPUs trying to enter the kernel. The
basic algorithm is: if a CPU is booting at EL2, it will set a flag at
an offset of #4 from __boot_cpu_mode, a cacheline-aligned variable.
Otherwise, a flag is set at an offset of zero into the same cacheline.
This enables us to check that all CPUs booted at the same exception
level.
This cacheline is written with the stage-1 MMU off (that is, via a
strongly-ordered mapping) and will bypass any clean lines in the cache,
leading to potential coherence problems when the variable is later
checked via the normal, cacheable mapping of the kernel image.
This patch reworks the broken flushing code so that we:
(1) Use a DMB to order the strongly-ordered write of the cacheline
against the subsequent cache-maintenance operation (by-VA
operations only hazard against normal, cacheable accesses).
(2) Use a single dc ivac instruction to invalidate any clean lines
containing a stale copy of the line after it has been updated.

The tlb maintainence functions: __cpu_flush_user_tlb_range and
__cpu_flush_kern_tlb_range do not take into consideration the page
granule when looping through the address range, and repeatedly flush
tlb entries for the same page when operating with 64K pages.
This patch re-works the logic s.t. we instead advance the loop by
1 << (PAGE_SHIFT - 12), so avoid repeating ourselves.
Also the routines have been converted from assembler to static inline
functions to aid with legibility and potential compiler optimisations.
The isb() has been removed from flush_tlb_kernel_range(.) as it is
only needed when changing the execute permission of a mapping. If one
needs to set an area of the kernel as execute/non-execute an isb()
must be inserted after the call to flush_tlb_kernel_range.

We have the capability to map 1GB level 1 blocks when using a 4K
granule.
This patch adjusts the create_mapping logic s.t. when mapping physical
memory on boot, we attempt to use a 1GB block if both the VA and PA
start and end are 1GB aligned. This both reduces the levels of lookup
required to resolve a kernel logical address, as well as reduces TLB
pressure on cores that support 1GB TLB entries.

The primary aim of this patchset is to remove the pgprot_default and
prot_sect_default global variables and rely strictly on predefined
values. The original goal was to be able to run SMP kernels on UP
hardware by not setting the Shareability bit. However, it is unlikely to
see UP ARMv8 hardware and even if we do, the Shareability bit is no
longer assumed to disable cacheable accesses.
A side effect is that the device mappings now have the Shareability
attribute set. The hardware, however, should ignore it since Device
accesses are always Outer Shareable.
Following the removal of the two global variables, there is some PROT_*
macro reshuffling and cleanup, including the __PAGE_* macros (replaced
by PAGE_*).

The ARMv8 architecture allows execute-only user permissions by clearing
the PTE_UXN and PTE_USER bits. The kernel, however, can still access
such page, so execute-only page permission does not protect against
read(2)/write(2) etc. accesses. Systems requiring such protection must
implement/enable features like SECCOMP.
This patch changes the arm64 __P100 and __S100 protection_map[] macros
to the new __PAGE_EXECONLY attributes. A side effect is that
pte_valid_user() no longer triggers for __PAGE_EXECONLY since PTE_USER
isn't set. To work around this, the check is done on the PTE_NG bit via
the pte_valid_ng() macro. VM_READ is also checked now for page faults.

If a task gets scheduled out and back in again and nothing has touched
its FPSIMD state in the mean time, there is really no reason to reload
it from memory. Similarly, repeated calls to kernel_neon_begin() and
kernel_neon_end() will preserve and restore the FPSIMD state every time.
This patch defers the FPSIMD state restore to the last possible moment,
i.e., right before the task returns to userland. If a task does not return to
userland at all (for any reason), the existing FPSIMD state is preserved
and may be reused by the owning task if it gets scheduled in again on the
same CPU.
This patch adds two more functions to abstract away from straight FPSIMD
register file saves and restores:
- fpsimd_restore_current_state -> ensure current's FPSIMD state is loaded
- fpsimd_flush_task_state -> invalidate live copies of a task's FPSIMD state

There are two tacit assumptions in the FPSIMD handling code that will no longer
hold after the next patch that optimizes away some FPSIMD state restores:
. the FPSIMD registers of this CPU contain the userland FPSIMD state of
task 'current';
. when switching to a task, its FPSIMD state will always be restored from
memory.
This patch adds the following functions to abstract away from straight FPSIMD
register file saves and restores:
- fpsimd_preserve_current_state -> ensure current's FPSIMD state is saved
- fpsimd_update_current_state -> replace current's FPSIMD state
Where necessary, the signal handling and fork code are updated to use the above
wrappers instead of poking into the FPSIMD registers directly.

- Default DMA ops changed to non-coherent to preserve compatibility
with 32-bit ARM DT files. The "dma-coherent" property can be used
to explicitly mark a device coherent. The Applied Micro DT file
has been updated to avoid DMA cache maintenance for the X-Gene SATA
controller (the only arm64 related driver with such assumption in
-rc mainline)
- Fixmap correction for earlyprintk
- kern_addr_valid() fix for huge pages"

Following arm64 commit bc3ee18a7a57 (arm64: init: Move of_clk_init to
time_init()), vexpress_osc_of_setup() is called via of_clk_init() long
before initcalls are issued. Initialising the vexpress oscillators
requires the vespress sysregs to be already initialised, so this patch
adds an explicit call to vexpress_sysreg_of_early_init() in vexpress
oscillator setup function.

Since the default DMA ops for arm64 are non-coherent, mark the X-Gene
controller explicitly as dma-coherent to avoid additional cache
maintenance.
