James Morse aa4d5d3cbc arm64: Add this_cpu_ptr() assembler macro for use in entry.S
irq_stack is a per_cpu variable, that needs to be access from entry.S.
Use an assembler macro instead of the unreadable details.

Ard Biesheuvel 207918461e arm64: use ENDPIPROC() to annotate position independent assembler routines
For more control over which functions are called with the MMU off or
with the UEFI 1:1 mapping active, annotate some assembler routines as
position independent. This is done by introducing ENDPIPROC(), which
replaces the ENDPROC() declaration of those routines.

Will Deacon 4b3dc9679c arm64: force CONFIG_SMP=y and remove redundant #ifdefs
Nobody seems to be producing !SMP systems anymore, so this is just
becoming a source of kernel bugs, particularly if people want to use
coherent DMA with non-shared pages.

This patch forces CONFIG_SMP=y for arm64, removing a modest amount of
code in the process.

Ard Biesheuvel b784a5d97d arm64: add macros for common adrp usages
The adrp instruction is mostly used in combination with either
an add, a ldr or a str instruction with the low bits of the
referenced symbol in the 12-bit immediate of the followup
instruction.

Introduce the macros adr_l, ldr_l and str_l that encapsulate
these common patterns.

Marc Zyngier f3e39273e0 arm64: guard asm/assembler.h against multiple inclusions
asm/assembler.h lacks the usual guard against multiple inclusion,
leading to a compilation failure if it is accidentally included
twice.

Using the classic #ifndef/#define/#endif construct solves the issue.

Will Deacon 2a2830703a arm64: debug: avoid accessing mdscr_el1 on fault paths where possible
Since mdscr_el1 is part of the debug register group, it is highly likely
to be trapped by a hypervisor to prevent virtual machines from debugging
(buggering?) each other. Unfortunately, this absolutely destroys our
performance, since we access the register on many of our low-level
fault handling paths to keep track of the various debug state machines.

This patch removes our dependency on mdscr_el1 in the case that debugging
is not being used. More specifically we:

  - Use TIF_SINGLESTEP to indicate that a task is stepping at EL0 and
    avoid disabling step in the MDSCR when we don't need to.
    MDSCR_EL1.SS handling is moved to kernel_entry, when trapping from
    userspace.

  - Ensure debug exceptions are re-enabled on *all* exception entry
    paths, even the debug exception handling path (where we re-enable
    exceptions after invoking the handler). Since we can now rely on
    MDSCR_EL1.SS being cleared by the entry code, exception handlers can
    usually enable debug immediately before enabling interrupts.

  - Remove all debug exception unmasking from ret_to_user and
    el1_preempt, since we will never get here with debug exceptions
    masked.

This results in a slight change to kernel debug behaviour, where we now
step into interrupt handlers and data aborts from EL1 when debugging the
kernel, which is actually a useful thing to do. A side-effect of this is
that it *does* potentially prevent stepping off {break,watch}points when
there is a high-frequency interrupt source (e.g. a timer), so a debugger
would need to use either breakpoints or manually disable interrupts to
get around this issue.

With this patch applied, guest performance is restored under KVM when
debug register accesses are trapped (and we get a measurable performance
increase on the host on Cortex-A57 too).

Matthew Leach 55b89540b0 arm64: compat: correct register concatenation for syscall wrappers
The arm64 port contains wrappers for arm32 syscalls that pass 64-bit
values. These wrappers concatenate the two registers to hold a 64-bit
value in a single X register. On BE, however, the lower and higher
words are swapped.

Create a new assembler macro, regs_to_64, that when on BE systems
swaps the registers in the orr instruction.

Will Deacon 3126976be6 arm64: debug: fix mdscr.ss check when enabling debug exceptions
When we take an exception at EL1, we only want to enable debug
exceptions if we're not currently stepping, otherwise we can easily get
stuck in a loop stepping into interrupt handlers.

Unfortunately, the current code tests the wrong bit in the mdscr, so fix
that.
