Before implementing KASLR for arm64 by building a self-relocating PIE
executable, we have to ensure that values we use before the relocation
routine is executed are not subject to dynamic relocation themselves.
This applies not only to virtual addresses, but also to values that are
supplied by the linker at build time and relocated using R_AARCH64_ABS64
relocations.
So instead, use assemble time constants, or force the use of static
relocations by folding the constants into the instructions.

Unfortunately, the current way of using the linker to emit build time
constants into the Image header will no longer work once we switch to
the use of PIE executables. The reason is that such constants are emitted
into the binary using R_AARCH64_ABS64 relocations, which are resolved at
runtime, not at build time, and the places targeted by those relocations
will contain zeroes before that.
So refactor the endian swapping linker script constant generation code so
that it emits the upper and lower 32-bit words separately.

This adds support for emitting PLTs at module load time for relative
branches that are out of range. This is a prerequisite for KASLR, which
may place the kernel and the modules anywhere in the vmalloc area,
making it more likely that branch target offsets exceed the maximum
range of +/- 128 MB.
In this version, I removed the distinction between relocations against
.init executable sections and ordinary executable sections. The reason
is that it is hardly worth the trouble, given that .init.text usually
does not contain that many far branches, and this version now only
reserves PLT entry space for jump and call relocations against undefined
symbols (since symbols defined in the same module can be assumed to be
within +/- 128 MB)
For example, the mac80211.ko module (which is fairly sizable at ~400 KB)
built with -mcmodel=large gives the following relocation counts:
relocs branches unique !local
.text 3925 3347 518 219
.init.text 11 8 7 1
.exit.text 4 4 4 1
.text.unlikely 81 67 36 17
('unique' means branches to unique type/symbol/addend combos, of which
!local is the subset referring to undefined symbols)
IOW, we are only emitting a single PLT entry for the .init sections, and
we are better off just adding it to the core PLT section instead.

This relaxes the kernel Image placement requirements, so that it
may be placed at any 2 MB aligned offset in physical memory.
This is accomplished by ignoring PHYS_OFFSET when installing
memblocks, and accounting for the apparent virtual offset of
the kernel Image. As a result, virtual address references
below PAGE_OFFSET are correctly mapped onto physical references
into the kernel Image regardless of where it sits in memory.
Special care needs to be taken for dealing with memory limits passed
via mem=, since the generic implementation clips memory top down, which
may clip the kernel image itself if it is loaded high up in memory. To
deal with this case, we simply add back the memory covering the kernel
image, which may result in more memory to be retained than was passed
as a mem= parameter.
Since mem= should not be considered a production feature, a panic notifier
handler is installed that dumps the memory limit at panic time if one was
set.

Before deferring the assignment of memstart_addr in a subsequent patch, to
the moment where all memory has been discovered and possibly clipped based
on the size of the linear region and the presence of a mem= command line
parameter, we need to ensure that memstart_addr is not used to perform __va
translations before it is assigned.
One such use is in the generic early DT discovery of the initrd location,
which is recorded as a virtual address in the globals initrd_start and
initrd_end. So wire up the generic support to declare the initrd addresses,
and implement it without __va() translations, and perform the translation
after memstart_addr has been assigned.

This moves the module area to right before the vmalloc area, and moves

Since other subsystems such as hibernate may still need to refer to the

If a CPU supports both Privileged Access Never (PAN) and User Access

UAO alternatives cause these calls to use the 'unprivileged' load/store

This patch changes the copy_to_user() calls to have their PAN toggling
depend on a new composite 'feature' ARM64_ALT_PAN_NOT_UAO.
If both features are detected, PAN will be enabled, but the copy_to_user()
alternatives will not be applied. This means PAN will be enabled all the
time for these functions. If only PAN is detected, the toggling will be
enabled as normal.
This will save the time taken to disable/re-enable PAN, and allow us to

Most CPUs have a hardware prefetcher which generally performs better
without explicit prefetch instructions issued by software, however
some CPUs (e.g. Cavium ThunderX) rely solely on explicit prefetch
instructions.
This patch adds an alternative pattern (ARM64_HAS_NO_HW_PREFETCH) to
allow our library code to make use of explicit prefetch instructions
during things like copy routines only when the CPU does not have the
capability to perform the prefetching itself.

The LSE atomics rely on us not dirtying data at L1 if we can avoid it,
otherwise many of the potential scalability benefits are lost.
This patch replaces spin_lock_prefetch with a nop when the LSE atomics
are in use, so that users don't shoot themselves in the foot by causing
needless coherence traffic at L1.

The SBBR and ACPI specifications allow ACPI based systems that do not
implement PSCI (eg systems with no EL3) to boot through the ACPI parking
protocol specification[1].
This patch implements the ACPI parking protocol CPU operations, and adds
code that eases parsing the parking protocol data structures to the
ARM64 SMP initializion carried out at the same time as cpus enumeration.
To wake-up the CPUs from the parked state, this patch implements a
wakeup IPI for ARM64 (ie arch_send_wakeup_ipi_mask()) that mirrors the
ARM one, so that a specific IPI is sent for wake-up purpose in order
to distinguish it from other IPI sources.
Given the current ACPI MADT parsing API, the patch implements a glue
layer that helps passing MADT GICC data structure from SMP initialization
code to the parking protocol implementation somewhat overriding the CPU
operations interfaces. This to avoid creating a completely trasparent
DT/ACPI CPU operations layer that would require creating opaque
structure handling for CPUs data (DT represents CPU through DT nodes, ACPI
through static MADT table entries), which seems overkill given that ACPI
on ARM64 mandates only two booting protocols (PSCI and parking protocol),
so there is no need for further protocol additions.

At boot we may change the granularity of the tables mapping the kernel
(by splitting or making sections). This may happen when we create the
linear mapping (in __map_memblock), or at any point we try to apply
fine-grained permissions to the kernel (e.g. fixup_executable,
mark_rodata_ro, fixup_init).
Changing the active page tables in this manner may result in multiple
entries for the same address being allocated into TLBs, risking problems
such as TLB conflict aborts or issues derived from the amalgamation of
TLB entries. Generally, a break-before-make (BBM) approach is necessary
to avoid conflicts, but we cannot do this for the kernel tables as it
risks unmapping text or data being used to do so.
Instead, we can create a new set of tables from scratch in the safety of
the existing mappings, and subsequently migrate over to these using the
new cpu_replace_ttbr1 helper, which avoids the two sets of tables being
active simultaneously.
To avoid issues when we later modify permissions of the page tables
(e.g. in fixup_init), we must create the page tables at a granularity
such that later modification does not result in splitting of tables.
This patch applies this strategy, creating a new set of fine-grained
page tables from scratch, and safely migrating to them. The existing
fixmap and kasan shadow page tables are reused in the new fine-grained
tables.

Currently we have separate ALIGN_DEBUG_RO{,_MIN} directives to align
_etext and __init_begin. While we ensure that __init_begin is
page-aligned, we do not provide the same guarantee for _etext. This is
not problematic currently as the alignment of __init_begin is sufficient
to prevent issues when we modify permissions.
Subsequent patches will assume page alignment of segments of the kernel
we wish to map with different permissions. To ensure this, move _etext
after the ALIGN_DEBUG_RO_MIN for the init section. This renders the
prior ALIGN_DEBUG_RO irrelevant, and hence it is removed. Likewise,
upgrade to ALIGN_DEBUG_RO_MIN(PAGE_SIZE) for _stext.

To allow us to initialise pgdirs which are fixmapped, allow explicitly
passing a pgdir rather than an mm. A new __create_pgd_mapping function
is added for this, with existing __create_mapping callers migrated to
this.
The mm argument was previously only used at the top level. Now that it
is redundant at all levels, it is removed. To indicate its new found
similarity to alloc_init_{pud,pmd,pte}, __create_mapping is renamed to
init_pgd.

Now that create_mapping uses fixmap slots to modify pte, pmd, and pud
entries, we can access page tables anywhere in physical memory,
regardless of the extent of the linear mapping.
Given that, we no longer need to limit memblock allocations during page
table creation, and can leave the limit as its default
MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE.
We never add memory which will fall outside of the linear map range
given phys_offset and MAX_MEMBLOCK_ADDR are configured appropriately, so
any tables we create will fall in the linear map of the final tables.

As a preparatory step to allow us to allocate early page tables from
unmapped memory using memblock_alloc, modify the __create_mapping
callees to map and unmap the tables they modify using fixmap entries.
All but the top-level pgd initialisation is performed via the fixmap.
Subsequent patches will inject the pgd physical address, and migrate to
using the FIX_PGD slot.

We currently have __pmd_populate for creating a pmd table entry given
the physical address of a pte, but don't have equivalents for the pud or
pgd levels of table.
To enable us to manipulate tables which are mapped outside of the linear
mapping (where we have a PA, but not a linear map VA), it is useful to
have these functions.
This patch adds __{pud,pgd}_populate. As these should not be called when
the kernel uses folded {pmd,pud}s, in these cases they expand to
BUILD_BUG(). So long as the appropriate checks are made on the {pud,pgd}
entry prior to attempting population, these should be optimized out at
compile time.

When we "upgrade" to a section mapping, we free any table we made
redundant by giving it back to memblock. To get the PA, we acquire the
physical address and convert this to a VA, then subsequently convert
this back to a PA.
This works currently, but will not work if the tables are not accessed
via linear map VAs (e.g. is we use fixmap slots).
This patch uses {pmd,pud}_page_paddr to acquire the PA. This avoids the
__pa(__va()) round trip, saving some work and avoiding reliance on the
linear mapping.

To allow us to walk tables allocated into the fixmap, we need to acquire
the physical address of a page, rather than the virtual address in the
linear map.
This patch adds new p??_page_paddr and p??_offset_phys functions to
acquire the physical address of a next-level table, and changes
p??_offset* into macros which simply convert this to a linear map VA.
This renders p??_page_vaddr unused, and hence they are removed.
At the pgd level, a new pgd_offset_raw function is added to find the
relevant PGD entry given the base of a PGD and a virtual address.

For pmd, pud, and pgd levels of table, functions including p?d_index and
p?d_offset are defined after the p?d_page_vaddr function for the
immediately higher level of table.
The pte functions however are defined much earlier, even though several
rely on the later definition of pmd_page_vaddr. While this isn't
currently a problem as these are macros, it prevents the logical
grouping of later C functions (which cannot rely on prototypes for
functions not yet defined).
Move these definitions after pmd_page_vaddr, for consistency with the
placement of these functions for other levels of table.
