Some Cavium Thunder CPUs suffer a problem where a KVM guest may
inadvertently cause the host kernel to quit receiving interrupts.
Use the Group-0/1 trapping in order to deal with it.
[maz]: Adapted patch to the Group-0/1 trapping, reworked commit log

Currently, cpus_set_cap() calls static_branch_enable_cpuslocked(), which
must take the jump_label mutex.
We call cpus_set_cap() in the secondary bringup path, from the idle
thread where interrupts are disabled. Taking a mutex in this path "is a
NONO" regardless of whether it's contended, and something we must avoid.
We didn't spot this until recently, as ___might_sleep() won't warn for
this case until all CPUs have been brought up.
This patch avoids taking the mutex in the secondary bringup path. The
poking of static keys is deferred until enable_cpu_capabilities(), which
runs in a suitable context on the boot CPU. To account for the static
keys being set later, cpus_have_const_cap() is updated to use another
static key to check whether the const cap keys have been initialised,
falling back to the caps bitmap until this is the case.
This means that users of cpus_have_const_cap() gain should only gain a
single additional NOP in the fast path once the const caps are
initialised, but should always see the current cap value.
The hyp code should never dereference the caps array, since the caps are
initialized before we run the module initcall to initialise hyp. A check
is added to the hyp init code to document this requirement.
This change will sidestep a number of issues when the upcoming hotplug
locking rework is merged.

commit d98ecdaca2 ("arm64: perf: Count EL2 events if the kernel is
running in HYP") returns -EINVAL when perf system call perf_event_open is
called with exclude_hv != exclude_kernel. This change breaks applications
on VHE enabled ARMv8.1 platforms. The issue was observed with HHVM
application, which calls perf_event_open with exclude_hv = 1 and
exclude_kernel = 0.
There is no separate hypervisor privilege level when VHE is enabled, the
host kernel runs at EL2. So when VHE is enabled, we should ignore
exclude_hv from the application. This behaviour is consistent with PowerPC
where the exclude_hv is ignored when the hypervisor is not present and with
x86 where this flag is ignored.

Our compat swp emulation holds the compat user address in an unsigned
int, which it passes to __user_swpX_asm(). When a 32-bit value is passed
in a register, the upper 32 bits of the register are unknown, and we
must extend the value to 64 bits before we can use it as a base address.
This patch casts the address to unsigned long to ensure it has been
suitably extended, avoiding the potential issue, and silencing a related
warning from clang.

When handling a data abort from EL0, we currently zero the top byte of
the faulting address, as we assume the address is a TTBR0 address, which
may contain a non-zero address tag. However, the address may be a TTBR1
address, in which case we should not zero the top byte. This patch fixes
that. The effect is that the full TTBR1 address is passed to the task's
signal handler (or printed out in the kernel log).
When handling a data abort from EL1, we leave the faulting address
intact, as we assume it's either a TTBR1 address or a TTBR0 address with
tag 0x00. This is true as far as I'm aware, we don't seem to access a
tagged TTBR0 address anywhere in the kernel. Regardless, it's easy to
forget about address tags, and code added in the future may not always
remember to remove tags from addresses before accessing them. So add tag
handling to the EL1 data abort handler as well. This also makes it
consistent with the EL0 data abort handler.

When we take a watchpoint exception, the address that triggered the
watchpoint is found in FAR_EL1. We compare it to the address of each
configured watchpoint to see which one was hit.
The configured watchpoint addresses are untagged, while the address in
FAR_EL1 will have an address tag if the data access was done using a
tagged address. The tag needs to be removed to compare the address to
the watchpoints.
Currently we don't remove it, and as a result can report the wrong
watchpoint as being hit (specifically, always either the highest TTBR0
watchpoint or lowest TTBR1 watchpoint). This patch removes the tag.

When we emulate userspace cache maintenance in the kernel, we can
currently send the task a SIGSEGV even though the maintenance was done
on a valid address. This happens if the address has a non-zero address
tag, and happens to not be mapped in.
When we get the address from a user register, we don't currently remove
the address tag before performing cache maintenance on it. If the
maintenance faults, we end up in either __do_page_fault, where find_vma
can't find the VMA if the address has a tag, or in do_translation_fault,
where the tagged address will appear to be above TASK_SIZE. In both
cases, the address is not mapped in, and the task is sent a SIGSEGV.
This patch removes the tag from the address before using it. With this
patch, the fault is handled correctly, the address gets mapped in, and
the cache maintenance succeeds.
As a second bug, if cache maintenance (correctly) fails on an invalid
tagged address, the address gets passed into arm64_notify_segfault,
where find_vma fails to find the VMA due to the tag, and the wrong
si_code may be sent as part of the siginfo_t of the segfault. With this
patch, the correct si_code is sent.

On arm64, of_flat_dt_match_machine() is not called, and the machine

Print the machine model to make it easier to derive the machine model

The arm64 module PLT code allocates all PLT entries in a single core
section, since the overhead of having a separate init PLT section is
not justified by the small number of PLT entries usually required for
init code.
However, the core and init module regions are allocated independently,
and there is a corner case where the core region may be allocated from
the VMALLOC region if the dedicated module region is exhausted, but the
init region, being much smaller, can still be allocated from the module
region. This leads to relocation failures if the distance between those
regions exceeds 128 MB. (In fact, this corner case is highly unlikely to
occur on arm64, but the issue has been observed on ARM, whose module
region is much smaller).
So split the core and init PLT regions, and name the latter ".init.plt"
so it gets allocated along with (and sufficiently close to) the .init
sections that it serves. Also, given that init PLT entries may need to
be emitted for branches that target the core module, modify the logic
that disregards defined symbols to only disregard symbols that are
defined in the same section as the relocated branch instruction.
Since there may now be two PLT entries associated with each entry in
the symbol table, we can no longer hijack the symbol::st_size fields
to record the addresses of PLT entries as we emit them for zero-addend
relocations. So instead, perform an explicit comparison to check for
duplicate entries.

Commit f1b36dcb5c ("arm64: pmuv3: handle !PMUv3 when probing") is
a little too restrictive, and prevents the use of of backwards
compatible PMUv3 extenstions, which have a PMUver value other than 1.
For instance, ARMv8.1 PMU extensions (as implemented by ThunderX2) are
reported with PMUver value 4.
Per the usual ID register principles, at least 0x1-0x7 imply a
PMUv3-compatible PMU. It's not currently clear whether 0x8-0xe imply the
same.
For the time being, treat the value as signed, and with 0x1-0x7 treated
as meaning PMUv3 is implemented. This may be relaxed by future patches.

We now trap accesses to CNTVCT_EL0 when the counter is broken
enough to require the kernel to mediate the access. But it
turns out that some existing userspace (such as OpenMPI) do
probe for the counter frequency, leading to an UNDEF exception
as CNTVCT_EL0 and CNTFRQ_EL0 share the same control bit.
The fix is to handle the exception the same way we do for CNTVCT_EL0.

When probing via ACPI, we won't know up-front whether a CPU has a PMUv3

This patch updates our PMUv3 probing code to test for the presence of
PMUv3 functionality before touching an PMUv3-specific registers, and
before updating the struct arm_pmu with PMUv3 data.
When a PMUv3-compatible PMU is not present, probing will return -ENODEV.

Currently the ACPI parking protocol code needs to parse each CPU's MADT
GICC table to extract the mailbox address and so on. Each time we parse
a GICC table, we call back to the parking protocol code to parse it.
This has been fine so far, but we're about to have more code that needs
to extract data from the GICC tables, and adding a callback for each
user is going to get unwieldy.
Instead, this patch ensures that we stash a copy of each CPU's GICC
table at boot time, such that anything needing to parse it can later
request it. This will allow for other parsers of GICC, and for
simplification to the ACPI parking protocol code. Note that we must
store a copy, rather than a pointer, since the core ACPI code
temporarily maps/unmaps tables while iterating over them.
Since we parse the MADT before we know how many CPUs we have (and hence
before we setup the percpu areas), we must use an NR_CPUS sized array.

Arch-specific functions are added to allow for implementing a crash dump
file interface, /proc/vmcore, which can be viewed as a ELF file.
A user space tool, like kexec-tools, is responsible for allocating
a separate region for the core's ELF header within crash kdump kernel
memory and filling it in when executing kexec_load().
Then, its location will be advertised to crash dump kernel via a new
device-tree property, "linux,elfcorehdr", and crash dump kernel preserves
the region for later use with reserve_elfcorehdr() at boot time.
On crash dump kernel, /proc/vmcore will access the primary kernel's memory
with copy_oldmem_page(), which feeds the data page-by-page by ioremap'ing
it since it does not reside in linear mapping on crash dump kernel.
Meanwhile, elfcorehdr_read() is simple as the region is always mapped.

The protection is implemented by unmapping the relevant segments in crash

to prevent coherency issues due to potential cache aliasing (with
mismatched attributes).
Page-level mappings are consistently used here so that we can change

two separate sections: a .text section with read-execute permissions,

read-write permissions, covering .init.data, .data and .bss.
This relies on the firmware to actually take the section permission

The kernel's EFI PE/COFF header contains a dummy .reloc section, and
an explanatory comment that claims that this is required for the EFI
application loader to accept the Image as a relocatable image (i.e.,
one that can be loaded at any offset and fixed up in place)
This was inherited from the x86 implementation, which has elaborate host
tooling to mangle the PE/COFF header post-link time, and which populates
the .reloc section with a single dummy base relocation. On ARM, no such
tooling exists, and the .reloc section remains empty, and is never even
exposed via the BaseRelocationTable directory entry, which is where the
PE/COFF loader looks for it.
The PE/COFF spec is unclear about relocatable images that do not require
any fixups, but the EDK2 implementation, which is the de facto reference
for PE/COFF in the UEFI space, clearly does not care, and explicitly
mentions (in a comment) that relocatable images with no base relocations
are perfectly fine, as long as they don't have the RELOCS_STRIPPED
attribute set (which is not the case for our PE/COFF image)
So simply remove the .reloc section altogether.
