The physical-relative calculation between the XIP text and data sections
introduced by the previous patch was far from obvious. Let's simplify it
by turning it into a macro which takes the two (virtual) addresses.
This allows us to arrange the calculation in a more obvious manner - we
can make it two sub-expressions which calculate the physical address for
each symbol, and then takes the difference of those physical addresses.

When XIP_KERNEL is enabled, the virt to phys address translation for RAM
is not the same as the virt to phys address translation for .text.
The only way to know where physical RAM is located is to use
PLAT_PHYS_OFFSET.
The MACRO will be useful for other places where there is a similar problem.

We can still override these settings via mach/memory.h, but let's provide
sensible defaults so that SPARSEMEM is available in the multiplatform
kernels.
Two platforms currently use SECTION_SIZE_BITS < 28, but are expected to
work with 28 (albeit slightly less efficiently if not all banks are
populated):
- mach-rpc: uses 26 bits. Based on mach/hardware.h it looks like this
platform puts RAM at 0x1000_0000 - 0x1fff_ffff, and I/O below
0x1000_0000.
- mach-sa1100: uses 27 bits. mach/memory.h indicates that RAM occupies
the entire range of 0xc000_0000 - 0xdfff_ffff.
But Arnd says in that rpc and sa1100 will never have to use the
default since they cannot be part of a multiplatform kernel, and that
is unlikely to change.
Several platforms need MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS >= 36 so we'll pick that as the
minimum. Anything higher and we'll fail the SECTIONS_WIDTH + NODES_WIDTH +
ZONES_WIDTH test in <linux/mm.h>.
Some analysis from Russell King at
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2014-October/298957.html:
I think this is fine in as far as it goes - this means we end up with
256 entries in the mem_section array which means it occupies one page,
which I think is acceptable overhead.
The other thing to be aware of here is the obvious:
#if (MAX_ORDER - 1 + PAGE_SHIFT) > SECTION_SIZE_BITS
#error Allocator MAX_ORDER exceeds SECTION_SIZE
#endif
Which means that with 28 bits of section, that's a maximum allocator
order of 16. We appear to allow FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER to be set up to
64 in the case of shmobile, which doesn't seem like a sensible upper
limit - and certainly isn't when sparsemem is enabled.
Given this, I think that FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER's help, and the
dependencies probably could do with some improvement to make the
issues more transparent.

Many callers either use NULL or const strings for the third argument of
clk_register_clkdev. For those that do not and use a non-const string,
this is a risk for format strings being accidentally processed (for
example in device names). As this interface is already used as if it
weren't a format string (prints nothing when NULL), and there are zero
users of the format strings, remove the format string interface to make
sure format strings will not leak into the clkdev.
$ git grep '\bclk_register_clkdev\b' | grep % | wc -l
0
Unfortunately, all the internals expect a va_list even though they treat
a NULL format string as special. To deal with this, we must pass either
(..., "%s", string) or (..., NULL) so that a the va_list will be created
correctly (passing the name as an argument, not as a format string).

These two targets were introduced by commit 13d5fadf45d1 ("[ARM]
Make 'i' and 'zi' targets work") to short-circuit the dependencies
for 'install' and 'zinstall'.
After that, commit 19514fc665ff ('arm, kbuild: make "make install"
not depend on vmlinux') eventually made "(z)install" equivalent to
"(z)i".
It is true that 'i' and 'zi' might be still useful as shorthands
but the original intention had been already lost.
They do not even show up in "make ARCH=arm help", so I hope this
deletion does not have much impact.

For an XIP build, _etext does not represent the end of the
binary image that needs to stay mapped into the MODULES_VADDR area.
Years ago, data came before text in the memory map. However,
now that the order is text/init/data, an XIP_KERNEL needs to map
up to the data location in order to keep from cutting off
parts of the kernel that are needed.
We only map up to the beginning of data because data has already been
copied, so there's no reason to keep it around anymore.
A new symbol is created to make it clear what it is we are referring
to.
This fixes the bug where you might lose the end of your kernel area
after page table setup is complete.

Commit b9b32bf70f2f ("ARM: use linker magic for vectors and vector stubs")
updated the linker script to emit the .vectors and .stubs sections into a
VMA range that is zero based and disjoint from the normal static kernel
region. The reason for that was that this way, the sections can be placed
exactly 4 KB apart, while the payload of the .vectors section is only 32
bytes.
Since the symbols that are part of the .stubs section are emitted into the
kallsyms table, they appear with zero based addresses as well, e.g.,
00001004 t vector_rst
00001020 t vector_irq
000010a0 t vector_dabt
00001120 t vector_pabt
000011a0 t vector_und
00001220 t vector_addrexcptn
00001240 t vector_fiq
00001240 T vector_fiq_offset
As this confuses perf when it accesses the kallsyms tables, commit
7122c3e9154b ("scripts/link-vmlinux.sh: only filter kernel symbols for
arm") implemented a somewhat ugly special case for ARM, where the value
of CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET is passed to scripts/kallsyms, and symbols whose
addresses are below it are filtered out. Note that this special case only
applies to CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL=n, not because the issue the patch addresses
exists only in that case, but because finding a limit below which to apply
the filtering is not entirely straightforward.
Since the .vectors and .stubs sections contain position independent code
that is never executed in place, we can emit it at its most likely runtime
VMA (for more recent CPUs), which is 0xffff0000 for the vector table and
0xffff1000 for the stubs. Not only does this fix the perf issue with
kallsyms, allowing us to drop the special case in scripts/kallsyms
entirely, it also gives debuggers a more realistic view of the address
space, and setting breakpoints or single stepping through code in the
vector table or the stubs is more likely to work as expected on CPUs that
use a high vector address. E.g.,
00001240 A vector_fiq_offset
...
c0c35000 T __init_begin
c0c35000 T __vectors_start
c0c35020 T __stubs_start
c0c35020 T __vectors_end
c0c352e0 T _sinittext
c0c352e0 T __stubs_end
...
ffff1004 t vector_rst
ffff1020 t vector_irq
ffff10a0 t vector_dabt
ffff1120 t vector_pabt
ffff11a0 t vector_und
ffff1220 t vector_addrexcptn
ffff1240 T vector_fiq
(Note that vector_fiq_offset is now an absolute symbol, which kallsyms
already ignores by default)
The LMA footprint is identical with or without this change, only the VMAs
are different:

Commit b9b32bf70f2f ("ARM: use linker magic for vectors and vector stubs")
introduced new global definitions of __vectors_start and __stubs_start,
and changed the existing ones to have internal linkage only. However, these
symbols are still visible to kallsyms, and due to the way the .vectors and
.stubs sections are emitted at the base of the VMA space, these duplicate
definitions have conflicting values.
$ nm -n vmlinux |grep -E __vectors|__stubs
00000000 t __vectors_start
00001000 t __stubs_start
c0e77000 T __vectors_start
c0e77020 T __stubs_start
This is completely harmless by itself, since the wrong values are local
symbols that cannot be referenced by other object files directly. However,
since these symbols are also listed in the kallsyms symbol table in some
cases (i.e., CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y and CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL=y), having these
conflicting values can be confusing. So either remove them, or make them
strictly local.

When building an XIP kernel, the linker script needs to be much different
than a conventional kernel's script. Over time, it's been difficult to
maintain both XIP and non-XIP layouts in one linker script. Therefore,
this patch separates the two procedures into two completely different
files.
The new linker script is essentially a straight copy of the current script
with all the non-CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL portions removed.
Additionally, all CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL portions have been removed from the
existing linker script...never to return again.
It should be noted that this does not fix any current XIP issues, but
rather is the first move in fixing them properly with subsequent patches.

drivers/firmware
ARM64 PSCI kernel interfaces that initialize idle states and implement
the suspend API to enter them are generic and can be shared with the
ARM architecture.
To achieve that goal, this patch moves ARM64 PSCI idle management
code to drivers/firmware, so that the interface to initialize and
enter idle states can actually be shared by ARM and ARM64 arches
back-ends.
The ARM generic CPUidle implementation also requires the definition of
a cpuidle_ops section entry for the kernel to initialize the CPUidle
operations at boot based on the enable-method (ie ARM64 has the
statically initialized cpu_ops counterparts for that purpose); therefore
this patch also adds the required section entry on CONFIG_ARM for PSCI so
that the kernel can initialize the PSCI CPUidle back-end when PSCI is
the probed enable-method.
On ARM64 this patch provides no functional change.

The code enabled by the ARM_CPU_SUSPEND config option is used by
kernel subsystems for purposes that go beyond system suspend so its
config entry should be augmented to take more default options into
account and avoid forcing its selection to prevent dependencies
override.
To achieve this goal, this patch reworks the ARM_CPU_SUSPEND config
entry and updates its default config value (by adding the BL_SWITCHER
option to it) and its dependencies (ARCH_SUSPEND_POSSIBLE), so that the
symbol is still selected by default by the subsystems requiring it and
at the same time enforcing the dependencies correctly.

DMA allocations might be subject to certain requirements specific to the
hardware using the buffers, such as availability of kernel mapping (for
contents fix-ups in the driver). The only entity that knows them is the
driver, so it must share this knowledge with vb2-dc.
This patch extends the alloc_ctx initialization interface to let the
driver specify DMA attrs, which are then stored inside the allocation
context and will be used for all allocations with that context.
As a side effect, all dma_*_coherent() calls are turned into
dma_*_attrs() calls, because the attributes need to be carried over
through all DMA operations.

If we know that TLB efficiency will not be an issue when memory is
accessed then it's not terribly important to allocate big chunks of
memory. The whole point of allocating the big chunks was that it would
make TLB usage efficient.
As Marek Szyprowski indicated:
Please note that mapping memory with larger pages significantly
improves performance, especially when IOMMU has a little TLB
cache. This can be easily observed when multimedia devices do
processing of RGB data with 90/270 degree rotation
Image rotation is distinctly an operation that needs to bounce around
through memory, so it makes sense that TLB efficiency is important
there.
Video decoding, on the other hand, is a fairly sequential operation.
During video decoding it's not expected that we'll be jumping all over
memory. Decoding video is also pretty heavy and the TLB misses aren't a
huge deal. Presumably most HW video acceleration users of dma-mapping
will not care about huge pages and will set DMA_ATTR_ALLOC_SINGLE_PAGES.
Allocating big chunks of memory is quite expensive, especially if we're
doing it repeadly and memory is full. In one (out of tree) usage model
it is common that arm_iommu_alloc_attrs() is called 16 times in a row,
each one trying to allocate 4 MB of memory. This is called whenever the
system encounters a new video, which could easily happen while the
memory system is stressed out. In fact, on certain social media
websites that auto-play video and have infinite scrolling, it's quite
common to see not just one of these 16x4MB allocations but 2 or 3 right
after another. Asking the system even to do a small amount of extra
work to give us big chunks in this case is just not a good use of time.
Allocating big chunks of memory is also expensive indirectly. Even if
we ask the system not to do ANY extra work to allocate _our_ memory,
we're still potentially eating up all big chunks in the system.
Presumably there are other users in the system that aren't quite as
flexible and that actually need these big chunks. By eating all the big
chunks we're causing extra work for the rest of the system. We also may
start making other memory allocations fail. While the system may be
robust to such failures (as is the case with dwc2 USB trying to allocate
buffers for Ethernet data and with WiFi trying to allocate buffers for
WiFi data), it is yet another big performance hit.

This patch adds the DMA_ATTR_ALLOC_SINGLE_PAGES attribute to the
DMA-mapping subsystem.
This attribute can be used as a hint to the DMA-mapping subsystem that
it's likely not worth it to try to allocate large pages behind the
scenes. Large pages are likely to make an IOMMU TLB work more
efficiently but may not be worth it. See the Documentation contained in
this patch for more details about this attribute and when to use it.
Note that the name of the hint (DMA_ATTR_ALLOC_SINGLE_PAGES) is loosely
based on the name MADV_NOHUGEPAGE. Just as there is MADV_NOHUGEPAGE
vs. MADV_HUGEPAGE we could also add an "opposite" attribute to
DMA_ATTR_ALLOC_SINGLE_PAGES. Without having the "opposite" attribute
the lack of DMA_ATTR_ALLOC_SINGLE_PAGES means "use your best judgement
about whether to use small pages or large pages".

The __iommu_alloc_buffer() is expected to be called to allocate pretty
sizeable buffers. Upon simple tests of video I saw it trying to
allocate 4,194,304 bytes. The function tries to allocate large chunks
in order to optimize IOMMU TLB usage.
The current function is very, very slow.
One problem is the way it keeps trying and trying to allocate big
chunks. Imagine a very fragmented memory that has 4M free but no
contiguous pages at all. Further imagine allocating 4M (1024 pages).
We'll do the following memory allocations:
- For page 1:
- Try to allocate order 10 (no retry)
- Try to allocate order 9 (no retry)
- ...
- Try to allocate order 0 (with retry, but not needed)
- For page 2:
- Try to allocate order 9 (no retry)
- Try to allocate order 8 (no retry)
- ...
- Try to allocate order 0 (with retry, but not needed)
- ...
- ...
Total number of calls to alloc() calls for this case is:
sum(int(math.log(i, 2)) + 1 for i in range(1, 1025))
=> 9228
The above is obviously worse case, but given how slow alloc can be we
really want to try to avoid even somewhat bad cases. I timed the old
code with a device under memory pressure and it wasn't hard to see it
take more than 120 seconds to allocate 4 megs of memory! (NOTE: testing
was done on kernel 3.14, so possibly mainline would behave
differently).
A second problem is that allocating big chunks under memory pressure
when we don't need them is just not a great idea anyway unless we really
need them. We can make due pretty well with smaller chunks so it's
probably wise to leave bigger chunks for other users once memory
pressure is on.
Let's adjust the allocation like this:
1. If a big chunk fails, stop trying to hard and bump down to lower
order allocations.
2. Don't try useless orders. The whole point of big chunks is to
optimize the TLB and it can really only make use of 2M, 1M, 64K and
4K sizes.
We'll still tend to eat up a bunch of big chunks, but that might be the
right answer for some users. A future patch could possibly add a new
DMA_ATTR that would let the caller decide that TLB optimization isn't
important and that we should use smaller chunks. Presumably this would
be a sane strategy for some callers.

To avoid that, let's mark the first 'tmp' usage in __arch_xprod_64()

This time 'tmp' is assigned to r3 and used throughout. However, by being
assigned to r3, that blocks usage of the r2-r3 double register slot for

The use of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is generally seen as an essential part of
kernel self-protection:
http://www.openwall.com/lists/kernel-hardening/2015/11/30/13
Additionally, its name has grown to mean things beyond just rodata. To
get ARM closer to this, we ought to rearrange the names of the configs
that control how the kernel protects its memory. What was called
CONFIG_ARM_KERNMEM_PERMS is realy doing the work that other architectures
call CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA.
This redefines CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to actually do the bulk of the
ROing (and NXing). In the place of the old CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, use
CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA, since that's what the option does: adds
section alignment for making rodata explicitly NX, as arm does not split
the page tables like arm64 does without _ALIGN_RODATA.
Also adds human readable names to the sections so I could more easily
debug my typos, and makes CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA default "y" for CPU_V7.
Results in /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables for each config state:
# CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is not set
# CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA is not set

Code run via soft_restart() is run with the MMU disabled, so we need to
pass the identity map physical address rather than the address obtained
from virt_to_phys(). Therefore, replace virt_to_phys() with
virt_to_idmap() for all callers of soft_restart().

Make virt_to_idmap() return an unsigned long rather than phys_addr_t.
Returning phys_addr_t here makes no sense, because the definition of
virt_to_idmap() is that it shall return a physical address which maps
identically with the virtual address. Since virtual addresses are
limited to 32-bit, identity mapped physical addresses are as well.
Almost all users already had an implicit narrowing cast to unsigned long
so let's make this official and part of this interface.

arm: irq: l2c: do not print error in case of missing l2c from dtb
In some architectures the L2 cache controller is integrated in the
processor's block itself and it doesn't use any external cache
controller. This means that an entry in the board's dtb related
to the l2c is not necessary.
Distinguish between error codes and do not print anything in case
l2x0_of_init() doesn't find any L2C DTB entry and returns -ENODEV.
This patch mutes the following error message:
L2C: failed to init: -19
on boards like odroid-xu4, cortex A7/A15, which don't have
external cache controller.

If we detect that there is nothing to do just set the flag and do not
check if it was already set before. Races really do not matter. If the
flag is set by any code then the shepherd will start dealing with the
situation and reenable the vmstat workers when necessary again.
Since commit 0eb77e988032 ("vmstat: make vmstat_updater deferrable again
and shut down on idle") quiet_vmstat might update cpu_stat_off and mark
a particular cpu to be handled by vmstat_shepherd. This might trigger a
VM_BUG_ON in vmstat_update because the work item might have been
sleeping during the idle period and see the cpu_stat_off updated after
the wake up. The VM_BUG_ON is therefore misleading and no more
appropriate. Moreover it doesn't really suite any protection from real
bugs because vmstat_shepherd will simply reschedule the vmstat_work
anytime it sees a particular cpu set or vmstat_update would do the same
from the worker context directly. Even when the two would race the
result wouldn't be incorrect as the counters update is fully idempotent.
