On strict kernel memory permission, the ftrace have to change the permission of text for dynamic patching the intructions. Use riscv_patch_text_nosync() to patch code instead of probe_kernel_write. Signed-off-by: Zong Li <zong.li@sifive.com> Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmerdabbelt@google.com>

On strict kernel memory permission, we couldn't patch code without writable permission. Preserve two holes in fixmap area, so we can map the kernel code temporarily to fixmap area, then patch the instructions. We need two pages here because we support the compressed instruction, so the instruction might be align to 2 bytes. When patching the 32-bit length instruction which is 2 bytes alignment, it will across two pages. Introduce two interfaces to patch kernel code: riscv_patch_text_nosync: - patch code without synchronization, it's caller's responsibility to synchronize all CPUs if needed. riscv_patch_text: - patch code and always synchronize with stop_machine() Signed-off-by: Zong Li <zong.li@sifive.com> Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmerdabbelt@google.com>

The kernel mapping will tried to optimize its mapping by using bigger size. In rv64, it tries to use PMD_SIZE, and tryies to use PGDIR_SIZE in rv32. To ensure that the start address of these sections could fit the mapping entry size, make them align to the biggest alignment. Define a macro SECTION_ALIGN because the HPAGE_SIZE or PMD_SIZE, etc., are invisible in linker script. This patch is prepared for STRICT_KERNEL_RWX support.

LLVM's integrated assembler doesn't support the LOCAL directive, which we're using when generating our uaccess fixup tables. Luckily the table fragment is small enough that there's only one internal symbol, so using a relative symbol reference doesn't really complicate anything.

These are only used once, and when reading the code I've always found them to be more of a headache than a benefit. While they were never worth removing before, LLVM's integrated assembler doesn't support LOCAL so rather that trying to figure out how to refactor the macros it seems saner to just inline them.

GCC allows users to hint to the register allocation that a variable should be placed in a register by using a syntax along the lines of function(...) { register long in_REG __asm__("REG"); } We've abused this a bit throughout the RISC-V port to access fixed registers directly as C variables. In practice it's never going to blow up because GCC isn't going to allocate these registers, but it's not a well defined syntax so we really shouldn't be relying upon this. Luckily there is a very similar but well defined syntax that allows us to still access these registers directly as C variables, which is to simply declare the register variables globally. For fixed variables this doesn't change the ABI. LLVM disallows this ambiguous syntax, so this isn't just strictly a formatting change. Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmerdabbelt@google.com>

I don't know why we were doing this, as it's been there since the beginning. After d841f729e655 ("riscv: force hart_lottery to put in .sdata section") my guess would be that it made the kernel boot and we forgot to fix it more cleanly. The default .bss segment already contains the .sbss section, so we don't need to do anything additional to ensure the symbols in .sbss continue to work.

If sbi->s_flex_groups_allocated is zero and the first allocation fails then this code will crash. The problem is that "i--" will set "i" to -1 but when we compare "i >= sbi->s_flex_groups_allocated" then the -1 is type promoted to unsigned and becomes UINT_MAX. Since UINT_MAX is more than zero, the condition is true so we call kvfree(new_groups[-1]). The loop will carry on freeing invalid memory until it crashes.

Removing attach_adapter from this driver caused a regression for at least some machines. Those machines had the sensors described in their DT, too, so they didn't need manual creation of the sensor devices. The old code worked, though, because manual creation came first. Creation of DT devices then failed later and caused error logs, but the sensors worked nonetheless because of the manually created devices. When removing attach_adaper, manual creation now comes later and loses the race. The sensor devices were already registered via DT, yet with another binding, so the driver could not be bound to it. This fix refactors the code to remove the race and only manually creates devices if there are no DT nodes present. Also, the DT binding is updated to match both, the DT and manually created devices. Because we don't know which device creation will be used at runtime, the code to start the kthread is moved to do_probe() which will be called by both methods.

In older version of systemd(219), at boot time, udevadm is called with : /usr/bin/udevadm trigger --type=devices --action=add" This program generates an echo "add" in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu<x>/uevent, leading to the "kvm: disabled by bios" message in case of your Bios disabled the virtualization extensions. On a modern system running up to 256 CPU threads, this pollutes the Kernel logs. This patch offers to ratelimit this message to avoid any userspace program triggering this uevent printing this message too often. This patch is only a workaround but greatly reduce the pollution without breaking the current behavior of printing a message if some try to instantiate KVM on a system that doesn't support it. Note that recent versions of systemd (>239) do not have trigger this behavior. This patch will be useful at least for some using older systemd with recent Kernels.
