We initialise the SCTLR_EL1 value by read-modify-writeback of the desired bits, leaving the other bits (including reserved bits(RESx)) untouched. However, sometimes the boot monitor could leave garbage values in the RESx bits which could have different implications. This patch makes sure that all the bits, including the RESx bits, are set to the proper state, except for the 'endianness' control bits, EE(25) & E0E(24)- which are set early in the el2_setup. Updated the state of the Bit[6] in the comment to RES0 in the comment. Signed-off-by: Suzuki K.

The arm64 dump code is currently relying on some definitions which are pulled in via transitive dependencies. It seems we have implicit dependencies on the following definitions: * MODULES_VADDR (asm/memory.h) * MODULES_END (asm/memory.h) * PAGE_OFFSET (asm/memory.h) * PTE_* (asm/pgtable-hwdef.h) * ENOMEM (linux/errno.h) * device_initcall (linux/init.h) This patch ensures we explicitly include the relevant headers for the above items, fixing the observed build issue and hopefully preventing future issues as headers are refactored.

PCI IO space was intended to be 16MiB, at 32MiB below MODULES_VADDR, but commit d1e6dc91 ("arm64: Add architectural support for PCI") extended this to cover the full 32MiB. The final 8KiB of this 32MiB is also allocated for the fixmap, allowing for potential clashes between the two. This change was masked by assumptions in mem_init and the page table dumping code, which assumed the I/O space to be 16MiB long through seaparte hard-coded definitions. This patch changes the definition of the PCI I/O space allocation to live in asm/memory.h, along with the other VA space allocations. As the fixmap allocation depends on the number of fixmap entries, this is moved below the PCI I/O space allocation. Both the fixmap and PCI I/O space are guarded with 2MB of padding. Sites assuming the I/O space was 16MiB are moved over use new PCI_IO_{START,END} definitions, which will keep in sync with the size of the IO space (now restored to 16MiB). As a useful side effect, the use of the new PCI_IO_{START,END} definitions prevents a build issue in the dumping code due to a (now redundant) missing include of io.h for PCI_IOBASE.

Now that the create_mapping() code in mm/mmu.c is able to support setting up kernel page tables at initcall time, we can move the whole virtmap creation to arm64_enable_runtime_services() instead of having a distinct stage during early boot. This also allows us to drop the arm64-specific EFI_VIRTMAP flag.

Add page protections for arm64 similar to those in arm. This is for security reasons to prevent certain classes of exploits. The current method: - Map all memory as either RWX or RW. We round to the nearest section to avoid creating page tables before everything is mapped - Once everything is mapped, if either end of the RWX section should not be X, we split the PMD and remap as necessary - When initmem is to be freed, we change the permissions back to RW (using stop machine if necessary to flush the TLB) - If CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set, the read only sections are set read only.

When booting with EFI, we acquire the EFI memory map after parsing the early params. This unfortuantely renders the option useless as we call memblock_enforce_memory_limit (which uses memblock_remove_range behind the scenes) before we've added any memblocks. We end up removing nothing, then adding all of memory later when efi_init calls reserve_regions. Instead, we can log the limit and apply this later when we do the rest of the memblock work in memblock_init, which should work regardless of the presence of EFI. At the same time we may as well move the early parameter into arm64's mm/init.c, close to arm64_memblock_init. Any memory which must be mapped (e.g. for use by EFI runtime services) must be mapped explicitly reather than relying on the linear mapping, which may be truncated as a result of a mem= option passed on the kernel command line.

When remapping the UEFI memory map using ioremap_cache(), we have to deal with potential failure. Note that, even if the common case is for ioremap_cache() to return the existing linear mapping of the memory map, we cannot rely on that to be always the case, e.g., in the presence of a mem= kernel parameter. At the same time, remove a stale comment and move the memmap code together.

The arm64 kernel builds fine without the libgcc. Actually it should not be used at all in the kernel. The following are the reasons indicated by Russell King: Although libgcc is part of the compiler, libgcc is built with the expectation that it will be running in userland - it expects to link to a libc. That's why you can't build libgcc without having the glibc headers around. [...] Meanwhile, having the kernel build the compiler support functions that it needs ensures that (a) we know what compiler support functions are being used, (b) we know the implementation of those support functions are sane for use in the kernel, (c) we can build them with appropriate compiler flags for best performance, and (d) we remove an unnecessary dependency on the build toolchain.

Currently we have separate ESR_EL{1,2}_* macros, despite the fact that the encodings are common. While encodings are architected to refer to the current EL or a lower EL, the macros refer to particular ELs (e.g. ESR_ELx_EC_DABT_EL0). Having these duplicate definitions is redundant, and their naming is misleading. This patch introduces common ESR_ELx_* macros that can be used in all cases, in preparation for later patches which will migrate existing users over. Some additional cleanups are made in the process: * Suffixes for particular exception levelts (e.g. _EL0, _EL1) are replaced with more general _LOW and _CUR suffixes, matching the architectural intent. * ESR_ELx_EC_WFx, rather than ESR_ELx_EC_WFI is introduced, as this EC encoding covers traps from both WFE and WFI. Similarly, ESR_ELx_WFx_ISS_WFE rather than ESR_ELx_EC_WFI_ISS_WFE is introduced. * Multi-bit fields are given consistently named _SHIFT and _MASK macros. * UL() is used for compatiblity with assembly files. * Comments are added for currently unallocated ESR_ELx.EC encodings. For fields other than ESR_ELx.EC, macros are only implemented for fields for which there is already an ESR_EL{1,2}_* macro.

The cachepolicy kernel parameter was intended to aid in the debugging of coherency issues, but it is fundamentally broken for several reasons: * On SMP platforms, only the boot CPU's tcr_el1 is altered. Secondary CPUs may therefore use differ w.r.t. the attributes they apply to MT_NORMAL memory, resulting in a loss of coherency. * The cache maintenance using flush_dcache_all (based on Set/Way operations) is not guaranteed to empty a given CPU's cache hierarchy while said CPU has caches enabled, it cannot empty the caches of other coherent PEs, nor is it guaranteed to flush data to the PoC even when caches are disabled. * The TLBs are not invalidated around the modification of MAIR_EL1 and TCR_EL1, as required by the architecture (as both are permitted to be cached in a TLB). This may result in CPUs using attributes other than those expected for some memory accesses, resulting in a loss of coherency. * Exclusive accesses are not architecturally guaranteed to function as expected on memory marked as Write-Through or Non-Cacheable. Thus changing the attributes of MT_NORMAL away from the (architecurally safe) defaults may cause uses of these instructions (e.g. atomics) to behave erratically. Given this, the cachepolicy code cannot be used for debugging purposes as it alone is likely to cause coherency issues. This patch removes the broken cachepolicy code.

In order to support kexec, the kernel needs to be able to deal with the state of the UEFI firmware after SetVirtualAddressMap() has been called. To avoid having separate code paths for non-kexec and kexec, let's move the call to SetVirtualAddressMap() to the stub: this will guarantee us that it will only be called once (since the stub is not executed during kexec), and ensures that the UEFI state is identical between kexec and normal boot. This implies that the layout of the virtual mapping needs to be created by the stub as well. All regions are rounded up to a naturally aligned multiple of 64 KB (for compatibility with 64k pages kernels) and recorded in the UEFI memory map. The kernel proper reads those values and installs the mappings in a dedicated set of page tables that are swapped in during UEFI Runtime Services calls.

Fix for BUG_ON(anon_vma->degree) splashes in unlink_anon_vmas() ("kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!") caused by commit 7a3ef208 ("mm: prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchy") Anon_vma_clone() is usually called for a copy of source vma in destination argument. If source vma has anon_vma it should be already in dst->anon_vma. NULL in dst->anon_vma is used as a sign that it's called from anon_vma_fork(). In this case anon_vma_clone() finds anon_vma for reusing. Vma_adjust() calls it differently and this breaks anon_vma reusing logic: anon_vma_clone() links vma to old anon_vma and updates degree counters but vma_adjust() overrides vma->anon_vma right after that. As a result final unlink_anon_vmas() decrements degree for wrong anon_vma. This patch assigns ->anon_vma before calling anon_vma_clone().

Commit fee7e49d ("mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for guard page") made sure that we return the error properly for stack growth conditions. It also theorized that counting the guard page towards the stack limit might break something, but also said "Let's see if anybody notices". Somebody did notice. Apparently android-x86 sets the stack limit very close to the limit indeed, and including the guard page in the rlimit check causes the android 'zygote' process problems. So this adds the (fairly trivial) code to make the stack rlimit check be against the actual real stack size, rather than the size of the vma that includes the guard page.
