The arm64 kernel assumes that FP/ASIMD units are always present
and accesses the FP/ASIMD specific registers unconditionally. This
could cause problems when they are absent. This patch adds the
support for kernel handling systems without FP/ASIMD by skipping the
register access within the kernel. For kvm, we trap the accesses
to FP/ASIMD and inject an undefined instruction exception to the VM.
The callers of the exported kernel_neon_begin_partial() should
make sure that the FP/ASIMD is supported.

The hypervisor may not have full access to the kernel data structures
and hence cannot safely use cpus_have_cap() helper for checking the
system capability. Add a safe helper for hypervisors to check a constant
system capability, which *doesn't* fall back to checking the bitmap
maintained by the kernel. With this, make the cpus_have_cap() only
check the bitmask and force constant cap checks to use the new API
for quicker checks.

This patch moves arm64's struct thread_info from the task stack into
task_struct. This protects thread_info from corruption in the case of
stack overflows, and makes its address harder to determine if stack
addresses are leaked, making a number of attacks more difficult. Precise
detection and handling of overflow is left for subsequent patches.
Largely, this involves changing code to store the task_struct in sp_el0,
and acquire the thread_info from the task struct. Core code now
implements current_thread_info(), and as noted in <linux/sched.h> this
relies on offsetof(task_struct, thread_info) == 0, enforced by core
code.
This change means that the 'tsk' register used in entry.S now points to
a task_struct, rather than a thread_info as it used to. To make this
clear, the TI_* field offsets are renamed to TSK_TI_*, with asm-offsets
appropriately updated to account for the structural change.
Userspace clobbers sp_el0, and we can no longer restore this from the
stack. Instead, the current task is cached in a per-cpu variable that we
can safely access from early assembly as interrupts are disabled (and we
are thus not preemptible).
Both secondary entry and idle are updated to stash the sp and task
pointer separately.

Shortly we will want to load a percpu variable in the return from
userspace path. We can save an instruction by folding the addition of
the percpu offset into the load instruction, and this patch adds a new
helper to do so.
At the same time, we clean up this_cpu_ptr for consistency. As with
{adr,ldr,str}_l, we change the template to take the destination register
first, and name this dst. Secondly, we rename the macro to adr_this_cpu,
following the scheme of adr_l, and matching the newly added
ldr_this_cpu.

In the absence of CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, core code maintains
thread_info::cpu, and low-level architecture code can access this to
build raw_smp_processor_id(). With CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, core code
maintains task_struct::cpu, which for reasons of hte header soup is not
accessible to low-level arch code.
Instead, we can maintain a percpu variable containing the cpu number.
For both the old and new implementation of raw_smp_processor_id(), we
read a syreg into a GPR, add an offset, and load the result. As the
offset is now larger, it may not be folded into the load, but otherwise
the assembly shouldn't change much.

Subsequent patches will make smp_processor_id() use a percpu variable.
This will make smp_processor_id() dependent on the percpu offset, and
thus we cannot use smp_processor_id() to figure out what to initialise
the offset to.
Prepare for this by initialising the percpu offset based on
current::cpu, which will work regardless of how smp_processor_id() is
implemented. Also, make this relationship obvious by placing this code
together at the start of secondary_start_kernel().

When returning from idle, we rely on the fact that thread_info lives at
the end of the kernel stack, and restore this by masking the saved stack
pointer. Subsequent patches will sever the relationship between the
stack and thread_info, and to cater for this we must save/restore sp_el0
explicitly, storing it in cpu_suspend_ctx.
As cpu_suspend_ctx must be doubleword aligned, this leaves us with an
extra slot in cpu_suspend_ctx. We can use this to save/restore tpidr_el1
in the same way, which simplifies the code, avoiding pointer chasing on
the restore path (as we no longer need to load thread_info::cpu followed
by the relevant slot in __per_cpu_offset based on this).
This patch stashes both registers in cpu_suspend_ctx.

When CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK is selected, task stacks may be freed
before a task is destroyed. To account for this, the stacks are
refcounted, and when manipulating the stack of another task, it is
necessary to get/put the stack to ensure it isn't freed and/or re-used
while we do so.
This patch reworks the arm64 stack walking code to account for this.
When CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK is not selected these perform no
refcounting, and this should only be a structural change that does not
affect behaviour.

The walk_stackframe functions is architecture-specific, with a varying
prototype, and common code should not use it directly. None of its
current users can be built as modules. With THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, users
will also need to hold a stack reference before calling it.
There's no reason for it to be exported, and it's very easy to misuse,
so unexport it for now.

In arm64's die and __die routines we pass around a thread_info, and
subsequently use this to determine the relevant task_struct, and the end
of the thread's stack. Subsequent patches will decouple thread_info from
the stack, and this approach will no longer work.
To figure out the end of the stack, we can use the new generic
end_of_stack() helper. As we only call __die() from die(), and die()
always deals with the current task, we can remove the parameter and have
both acquire current directly, which also makes it clear that __die
can't be called for arbitrary tasks.

We define current_stack_pointer in <asm/thread_info.h>, though other
files and header relying upon it do not have this necessary include, and
are thus fragile to changes in the header soup.
Subsequent patches will affect the header soup such that directly
including <asm/thread_info.h> may result in a circular header include in
some of these cases, so we can't simply include <asm/thread_info.h>.
Instead, factor current_thread_info into its own header, and have all

We have a comment claiming __switch_to() cares about where cpu_context
is located relative to cpu_domain in thread_info. However arm64 has
never had a thread_info::cpu_domain field, and neither __switch_to nor
cpu_switch_to care where the cpu_context field is relative to others.
Additionally, the init_thread_info alias is never used anywhere in the
kernel, and will shortly become problematic when thread_info is moved
into task_struct.
This patch removes both.

When CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK is selected, the current_thread_info()
macro relies on current having been defined prior to its use. However,
not all users of current_thread_info() include <asm/current.h>, and thus
current is not guaranteed to be defined.
When CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK is not selected, it's possible that
get_current() / current are based upon current_thread_info(), and
<asm/current.h> includes <asm/thread_info.h>. Thus always including
<asm/current.h> would result in circular dependences on some platforms.
To ensure both cases work, this patch includes <asm/current.h>, but only
when CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK is selected.

Since commit f56141e3e2d9aabf ("all arches, signal: move restart_block
to struct task_struct"), thread_info and restart_block have been
logically distinct, yet struct restart_block is still defined in
<linux/thread_info.h>.
At least one architecture (erroneously) uses restart_block as part of
its thread_info, and thus the definition of restart_block must come
before the include of <asm/thread_info>. Subsequent patches in this
series need to shuffle the order of includes and definitions in
<linux/thread_info.h>, and will make this ordering fragile.
This patch moves the definition of restart_block out to its own header.
This serves as generic cleanup, logically separating thread_info and
restart_block, and also makes it easier to avoid fragility.

For several reasons it is preferable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() rather than
ACCESS_ONCE(). For example, these handle aggregate types, result in shorter
source code, and better document the intended access (which may be useful for
instrumentation features such as the upcoming KTSAN).
Over a number of patches, most uses of ACCESS_ONCE() in arch/arm64 have been
migrated to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(). For consistency, and the above reasons, this
patch migrates the final remaining uses.

The find_num_contig() will return 1 when the pmd is not present.
It will cause a kernel dead loop in the following scenaro:
1.) pmd entry is not present.
2.) the page fault occurs:
... hugetlb_fault() --> hugetlb_no_page() --> set_huge_pte_at()
3.) set_huge_pte_at() will only set the first PMD entry, since the
find_num_contig just return 1 in this case. So the PMD entries
are all empty except the first one.
4.) when kernel accesses the address mapped by the second PMD entry,
a new page fault occurs:
... hugetlb_fault() --> huge_ptep_set_access_flags()
The second PMD entry is still empty now.
5.) When the kernel returns, the access will cause a page fault again.
The kernel will run like the "4)" above.
We will see a dead loop since here.
The dead loop is caught in the 32M hugetlb page (2M PMD + Contiguous bit).
This patch removes wrong pmd check, and fixes this dead loop.
This patch also removes the redundant checks for PGD/PUD in
the find_num_contig().

Therefore, this patch protects some portion of kprobe code and renames few
other, so that decode-insn functionality can be reused by uprobe even when
CONFIG_KPROBES is not defined.
kprobe_opcode_t and struct arch_specific_insn are also defined by

definitions in asm/probes.h.
linux/kprobes.h already includes asm/kprobes.h. Therefore, remove inclusion
of asm/kprobes.h from decode-insn.c.
There are some definitions like kprobe_insn and kprobes_handler_t etc can
be re-used by uprobe. So, it would be better to remove 'k' from their
names.
struct arch_specific_insn is specific to kprobe. Therefore, introduce a new
struct arch_probe_insn which will be common for both kprobe and uprobe, so
that decode-insn code can be shared. Modify kprobe code accordingly.
Function arm_probe_decode_insn() will be needed by uprobe as well. So make

Now that we no longer allow live kernel PMDs to be split, it is safe to
start using the contiguous bit for kernel mappings. So set the contiguous
bit in the kernel page mappings for regions whose size and alignment are
suitable for this.
This enables the following contiguous range sizes for the virtual mapping
of the kernel image, and for the linear mapping:
granule size | cont PTE | cont PMD |
-------------+------------+------------+
4 KB | 64 KB | 32 MB |
16 KB | 2 MB | 1 GB* |
64 KB | 2 MB | 16 GB* |
* Only when built for 3 or more levels of translation. This is due to the
fact that a 2 level configuration only consists of PGDs and PTEs, and the
added complexity of dealing with folded PMDs is not justified considering
that 16 GB contiguous ranges are likely to be ignored by the hardware (and
16k/2 levels is a niche configuration)

provided in arch, so that scheduler's default implementation (which gets
used if arch_scale_cpu_capacity is not defined) is overwritten.

ARM systems may be configured to have cpus with different power/performance
characteristics within the same chip. In this case, additional information
has to be made available to the kernel (the scheduler in particular) for it
to be aware of such differences and take decisions accordingly.
Therefore, this patch aims at standardizing cpu capacities device tree
bindings for ARM platforms. Bindings define cpu capacity-dmips-mhz
parameter, to allow operating systems to retrieve such information from
the device tree and initialize related kernel structures, paving the way
for common code in the kernel to deal with heterogeneity.
