2018-03-26arm64: Add work around for Arm Cortex-A55 Erratum 1024718Suzuki K Poulose1-0/+1
Some variants of the Arm Cortex-55 cores (r0p0, r0p1, r1p0) suffer from an erratum 1024718, which causes incorrect updates when DBM/AP bits in a page table entry is modified without a break-before-make sequence. The work around is to skip enabling the hardware DBM feature on the affected cores. The hardware Access Flag management features is not affected. There are some other cores suffering from this errata, which could be added to the midr_list to trigger the work around.

2018-03-19arm64: KVM: Allow mapping of vectors outside of the RAM regionMarc Zyngier1-1/+2
We're now ready to map our vectors in weird and wonderful locations. On enabling ARM64_HARDEN_EL2_VECTORS, a vector slot gets allocated if this hasn't been already done via ARM64_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR and gets mapped outside of the normal RAM region, next to the idmap. That way, being able to obtain VBAR_EL2 doesn't reveal the mapping of the rest of the hypervisor code.

The Kryo CPUs are also affected by the Falkor 1003 errata, so we need to do the same workaround on Kryo CPUs. The MIDR is slightly more complicated here, where the PART number is not always the same when looking at all the bits from 15 to 4. Drop the lower 8 bits and just look at the top 4 to see if it's '2' and then consider those as Kryo CPUs. This covers all the combinations without having to list them all out.

2017-12-12arm64: Add software workaround for Falkor erratum 1041Shanker Donthineni1-0/+1
The ARM architecture defines the memory locations that are permitted to be accessed as the result of a speculative instruction fetch from an exception level for which all stages of translation are disabled. Specifically, the core is permitted to speculatively fetch from the 4KB region containing the current program counter 4K and next 4K. When translation is changed from enabled to disabled for the running exception level (SCTLR_ELn[M] changed from a value of 1 to 0), the Falkor core may errantly speculatively access memory locations outside of the 4KB region permitted by the architecture. The errant memory access may lead to one of the following unexpected behaviors. 1) A System Error Interrupt (SEI) being raised by the Falkor core due to the errant memory access attempting to access a region of memory that is protected by a slave-side memory protection unit. 2) Unpredictable device behavior due to a speculative read from device memory. This behavior may only occur if the instruction cache is disabled prior to or coincident with translation being changed from enabled to disabled. The conditions leading to this erratum will not occur when either of the following occur: 1) A higher exception level disables translation of a lower exception level (e.g. EL2 changing SCTLR_EL1[M] from a value of 1 to 0). 2) An exception level disabling its stage-1 translation if its stage-2 translation is enabled (e.g. EL1 changing SCTLR_EL1[M] from a value of 1 to 0 when HCR_EL2[VM] has a value of 1). To avoid the errant behavior, software must execute an ISB immediately prior to executing the MSR that will change SCTLR_ELn[M] from 1 to 0.

2017-05-09arm64: documentation: document tagged pointer stack constraintsKristina Martsenko1-15/+47
Some kernel features don't currently work if a task puts a non-zero address tag in its stack pointer, frame pointer, or frame record entries (FP, LR). For example, with a tagged stack pointer, the kernel can't deliver signals to the process, and the task is killed instead. As another example, with a tagged frame pointer or frame records, perf fails to generate call graphs or resolve symbols. For now, just document these limitations, instead of finding and fixing everything that doesn't work, as it's not known if anyone needs to use tags in these places anyway. In addition, as requested by Dave Martin, generalize the limitations into a general kernel address tag policy, and refactor tagged-pointers.txt to include it.

2017-03-07irqchip/gicv3-its: Add workaround for QDF2400 ITS erratum 0065Shanker Donthineni1-0/+1
On Qualcomm Datacenter Technologies QDF2400 SoCs, the ITS hardware implementation uses 16Bytes for Interrupt Translation Entry (ITE), but reports an incorrect value of 8Bytes in GITS_TYPER.ITTE_size. It might cause kernel memory corruption depending on the number of MSI(x) that are configured and the amount of memory that has been allocated for ITEs in its_create_device(). This patch fixes the potential memory corruption by setting the correct ITE size to 16Bytes.

2017-02-10arm64: Work around Falkor erratum 1003Christopher Covington1-0/+1
The Qualcomm Datacenter Technologies Falkor v1 CPU may allocate TLB entries using an incorrect ASID when TTBRx_EL1 is being updated. When the erratum is triggered, page table entries using the new translation table base address (BADDR) will be allocated into the TLB using the old ASID. All circumstances leading to the incorrect ASID being cached in the TLB arise when software writes TTBRx_EL1[ASID] and TTBRx_EL1[BADDR], a memory operation is in the process of performing a translation using the specific TTBRx_EL1 being written, and the memory operation uses a translation table descriptor designated as non-global. EL2 and EL3 code changing the EL1&0 ASID is not subject to this erratum because hardware is prohibited from performing translations from an out-of-context translation regime. Consider the following pseudo code. write new BADDR and ASID values to TTBRx_EL1 Replacing the above sequence with the one below will ensure that no TLB entries with an incorrect ASID are used by software. write reserved value to TTBRx_EL1[ASID] ISB write new value to TTBRx_EL1[BADDR] ISB write new value to TTBRx_EL1[ASID] ISB When the above sequence is used, page table entries using the new BADDR value may still be incorrectly allocated into the TLB using the reserved ASID. Yet this will not reduce functionality, since TLB entries incorrectly tagged with the reserved ASID will never be hit by a later instruction.

During a TLB invalidate sequence targeting the inner shareable domain, Falkor may prematurely complete the DSB before all loads and stores using the old translation are observed. Instruction fetches are not subject to the conditions of this erratum. If the original code sequence includes multiple TLB invalidate instructions followed by a single DSB, onle one of the TLB instructions needs to be repeated to work around this erratum. While the erratum only applies to cases in which the TLBI specifies the inner-shareable domain (*IS form of TLBI) and the DSB is ISH form or stronger (OSH, SYS), this changes applies the workaround overabundantly-- to local TLBI, DSB NSH sequences as well--for simplicity.

2016-09-23arm64: arch_timer: Work around QorIQ Erratum A-008585Scott Wood1-0/+2
Erratum A-008585 says that the ARM generic timer counter "has the potential to contain an erroneous value for a small number of core clock cycles every time the timer value changes". Accesses to TVAL (both read and write) are also affected due to the implicit counter read. Accesses to CVAL are not affected. The workaround is to reread TVAL and count registers until successive reads return the same value. Writes to TVAL are replaced with an equivalent write to CVAL. The workaround is to reread TVAL and count registers until successive reads return the same value, and when writing TVAL to retry until counter reads before and after the write return the same value. The workaround is enabled if the fsl,erratum-a008585 property is found in the timer node in the device tree. This can be overridden with the clocksource.arm_arch_timer.fsl-a008585 boot parameter, which allows KVM users to enable the workaround until a mechanism is implemented to automatically communicate this information.

There were significant additions to the spec that had not yet been mentioned -- for example, the 6.0 mechanisms added to make it easier to define processors and low power idle states, as well as the 6.1 addition allowing regular interrupts (not just from GPIO) be used to signal ACPI general purpose events. This patch reflects going back through and examining the specs in detail and updating content appropriately. Whilst there, a few odds and ends of typos were caught as well.

MMU-500 erratum #841119 is tickled by a particular set of circumstances interacting with the next-page prefetcher. Since said prefetcher is quite dumb and actually detrimental to performance in some cases (by causing unwanted TLB evictions for non-sequential access patterns), we lose very little by turning it off, and what we gain is a guarantee that the erratum is never hit.

2016-04-14arm64: add the initrd region to the linear mapping explicitlyArd Biesheuvel1-0/+4
Instead of going out of our way to relocate the initrd if it turns out to occupy memory that is not covered by the linear mapping, just add the initrd to the linear mapping. This puts the burden on the bootloader to pass initrd= and mem= options that are mutually consistent. Note that, since the placement of the linear region in the PA space is also dependent on the placement of the kernel Image, which may reside anywhere in memory, we may still end up with a situation where the initrd and the kernel Image are simply too far apart to be covered by the linear region. Since we now leave it up to the bootloader to pass the initrd in memory that is guaranteed to be accessible by the kernel, add a mention of this to the arm64 boot protocol specification as well.

2016-02-18arm64: allow kernel Image to be loaded anywhere in physical memoryArd Biesheuvel1-7/+13
This relaxes the kernel Image placement requirements, so that it may be placed at any 2 MB aligned offset in physical memory. This is accomplished by ignoring PHYS_OFFSET when installing memblocks, and accounting for the apparent virtual offset of the kernel Image. As a result, virtual address references below PAGE_OFFSET are correctly mapped onto physical references into the kernel Image regardless of where it sits in memory. Special care needs to be taken for dealing with memory limits passed via mem=, since the generic implementation clips memory top down, which may clip the kernel image itself if it is loaded high up in memory. To deal with this case, we simply add back the memory covering the kernel image, which may result in more memory to be retained than was passed as a mem= parameter. Since mem= should not be considered a production feature, a panic notifier handler is installed that dumps the memory limit at panic time if one was set.
