When a CPU resumes from low-power, it restores HW breakpoint and watchpoint slots through a CPU PM notifier. Since we want to enable debugging as early as possible in the resume path, the mdscr content is restored along the general purpose registers in the cpu_suspend API and debug exceptions are reenabled when cpu_suspend returns. Since the CPU PM notifier is run after a CPU has been resumed, we cannot expect HW breakpoint registers to contain sane values till the notifier is run, since the HW breakpoints registers content is unknown at reset; this means that the CPU might run with debug exceptions enabled, mdscr restored but HW breakpoint registers containing junk values that can trigger spurious debug exceptions. This patch fixes current HW breakpoints restore by moving the HW breakpoints registers restoration to the cpu_suspend API, before the debug exceptions are enabled. This way, as soon as the cpu_suspend function returns the kernel can resume debugging with sane values in HW breakpoint registers.

As commit a9468f30 "ARM: 7333/2: jump label: detect %c support for ARM", this patch detects the same thing for ARM64 because some ARM64 GCC versions have the same issue. Some versions of ARM64 GCC which do support asm goto, do not support the %c specifier. Since we need the %c to support jump labels on ARM64, detect that too in the asm goto detection script to avoid build errors with these versions.

The definition of virt_addr_valid is that virt_addr_valid should return true if and only if virt_to_page returns a valid pointer. The current definition of virt_addr_valid only checks against the virtual address range. There's no guarantee that just because a virtual address falls bewteen PAGE_OFFSET and high_memory the associated physical memory has a valid backing struct page. Follow the example of other architectures and convert to pfn_valid to verify that the virtual address is actually valid.

This patch adds the required makefile and kconfig entries to enable PM for arm64 systems. The kernel relies on the cpu_{suspend}/{resume} infrastructure to properly save the context for a CPU and put it to sleep, hence this patch adds the config option required to enable cpu_{suspend}/{resume} API. In order to rely on the CPU PM implementation for saving and restoring of CPU subsystems like GIC and PMU, the arch Kconfig must be also augmented to select the CONFIG_CPU_PM option when SUSPEND or CPU_IDLE kernel implementations are selected.

Kernel subsystems like CPU idle and suspend to RAM require a generic mechanism to suspend a processor, save its context and put it into a quiescent state. The cpu_{suspend}/{resume} implementation provides such a framework through a kernel interface allowing to save/restore registers, flush the context to DRAM and suspend/resume to/from low-power states where processor context may be lost. The CPU suspend implementation relies on the suspend protocol registered in CPU operations to carry out a suspend request after context is saved and flushed to DRAM. The cpu_suspend interface: int cpu_suspend(unsigned long arg); allows to pass an opaque parameter that is handed over to the suspend CPU operations back-end so that it can take action according to the semantics attached to it. The arg parameter allows suspend to RAM and CPU idle drivers to communicate to suspend protocol back-ends; it requires standardization so that the interface can be reused seamlessly across systems, paving the way for generic drivers. Context memory is allocated on the stack, whose address is stashed in a per-cpu variable to keep track of it and passed to core functions that save/restore the registers required by the architecture. Even though, upon successful execution, the cpu_suspend function shuts down the suspending processor, the warm boot resume mechanism, based on the cpu_resume function, makes the resume path operate as a cpu_suspend function return, so that cpu_suspend can be treated as a C function by the caller, which simplifies coding the PM drivers that rely on the cpu_suspend API. Upon context save, the minimal amount of memory is flushed to DRAM so that it can be retrieved when the MMU is off and caches are not searched. The suspend CPU operation, depending on the required operations (eg CPU vs Cluster shutdown) is in charge of flushing the cache hierarchy either implicitly (by calling firmware implementations like PSCI) or explicitly by executing the required cache maintainance functions. Debug exceptions are disabled during cpu_{suspend}/{resume} operations so that debug registers can be saved and restored properly preventing preemption from debug agents enabled in the kernel.

Power management software requires the kernel to save and restore CPU registers while going through suspend and resume operations triggered by kernel subsystems like CPU idle and suspend to RAM. This patch implements code that provides save and restore mechanism for the arm v8 implementation. 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. The registers that are saved and restored correspond to the registers set actually required by the kernel to be up and running which represents a subset of v8 ISA.
