It can be useful for JIT software to be aware of MIDR_EL1 and
REVIDR_EL1 to ascertain the presence of any core errata that could
affect code generation.
This patch exposes these registers through sysfs:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$ID/regs/identification/midr_el1
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$ID/regs/identification/revidr_el1
where $ID is the cpu number. For big.LITTLE systems, one can have a
mixture of cores (e.g. Cortex A53 and Cortex A57), thus all CPUs need
to be enumerated.
If the kernel does not have valid information to populate these entries
with, an empty string is returned to userspace.

The loop that browses the array compat_hwcap_str will stop when a NULL
is encountered, however NULL is missing at the end of array. This will
lead to overrun until a NULL is found somewhere in the following memory.
In reality, this works out because the compat_hwcap2_str array tends to
follow immediately in memory, and that *is* terminated correctly.
Furthermore, the unsigned int compat_elf_hwcap is checked before
printing each capability, so we end up doing the right thing because
the size of the two arrays is less than 32. Still, this is an obvious
mistake and should be fixed.
Note for backporting: commit 12d11817ea ("arm64: Move
/proc/cpuinfo handling code") moved this code in v4.4. Prior to that

On ARMv8 support for AArch32 state is optional. Hence it is
not safe to check the AArch32 ID registers for sanity, which
could lead to false warnings. This patch makes sure that the
AArch32 state is implemented before we keep track of the 32bit
ID registers.
As per ARM ARM (D.1.21.2 - Support for Exception Levels and
Execution States, DDI0487A.h), checking the support for AArch32
at EL0 is good enough to check the support for AArch32 (i.e,
AArch32 at EL1 => AArch32 at EL0, but not vice versa).

Commit 0f54b14e76 ("arm64: cpufeature: Change read_cpuid() to use
sysreg's mrs_s macro") changed read_cpuid to require a SYS_ prefix on
register names, to allow manual assembly of registers unknown by the
toolchain, using tables in sysreg.h.
This interacts poorly with commit 42b5573403 ("efi/arm64: Check
for h/w support before booting a >4 KB granular kernel"), which is
curretly queued via the tip tree, and uses read_cpuid without a SYS_
prefix. Due to this, a build of next-20160304 fails if EFI and 64K pages
are selected.
To avoid this issue when trees are merged, move the required SYS_
prefixing into read_cpuid, and revert all of the updated callsites to
pass plain register names. This effectively reverts the bulk of commit
0f54b14e76.

Older assemblers may not have support for newer feature registers. To get
round this, sysreg.h provides a 'mrs_s' macro that takes a register
encoding and generates the raw instruction.
Change read_cpuid() to use mrs_s in all cases so that new registers
don't have to be a special case. Including sysreg.h means we need to move
the include and definition of read_cpuid() after the #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__

At the moment we run through the arm64_features capability list for
each CPU and set the capability if one of the CPU supports it. This
could be problematic in a heterogeneous system with differing capabilities.
Delay the CPU feature checks until all the enabled CPUs are up(i.e,
smp_cpus_done(), so that we can make better decisions based on the
overall system capability. Once we decide and advertise the capabilities
the alternatives can be applied. From this state, we cannot roll back
a feature to disabled based on the values from a new hotplugged CPU,
due to the runtime patching and other reasons. So, for all new CPUs,
we need to make sure that they have the established system capabilities.
Failing which, we bring the CPU down, preventing it from turning online.
Once the capabilities are decided, any new CPU booting up goes through
verification to ensure that it has all the enabled capabilities and also
invokes the respective enable() method on the CPU.
The CPU errata checks are not delayed and is still executed per-CPU
to detect the respective capabilities. If we ever come across a non-errata
capability that needs to be checked on each-CPU, we could introduce them via
a new capability table(or introduce a flag), which can be processed per CPU.
The next patch will make the feature checks use the system wide
safe value of a feature register.
NOTE: The enable() methods associated with the capability is scheduled
on all the CPUs (which is the only use case at the moment). If we need
a different type of 'enable()' which only needs to be run once on any CPU,
we should be able to handle that when needed.

This patch adds an infrastructure to keep track of the CPU feature
registers on the system. For each register, the infrastructure keeps
track of the system wide safe value of the feature bits. Also, tracks
the which fields of a register should be matched strictly across all
the CPUs on the system for the SANITY check infrastructure.
The feature bits are classified into following 3 types depending on
the implication of the possible values. This information is used to
decide the safe value for a feature.
LOWER_SAFE - The smaller value is safer
HIGHER_SAFE - The bigger value is safer
EXACT - We can't decide between the two, so a predefined safe_value is used.
This infrastructure will be later used to make better decisions for:
- Kernel features (e.g, KVM, Debug)
- SANITY Check
- CPU capability
- ELF HWCAP
- Exposing CPU Feature register to userspace.

It seems that Cortex-A53 r0p4 added support for AIFSR and ADFSR, and
ID_MMFR0.AuxReg has been updated accordingly to report this fact. As
Cortex-A53 could be paired with CPUs which do not implement these
registers (e.g. all current revisions of Cortex-A57), this may trigger a
sanity check failure at boot.
The AuxReg value describes the availability of the ACTLR, AIFSR, and
ADFSR registers, which are only of use to 32-bit guest OSs, and have
IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED contents. Given the nature of these registers it
is likely that KVM will need to trap accesses regardless of whether the
CPUs are heterogeneous.
This patch masks out the ID_MMFR0.AuxReg value from the sanity checks,
preventing spurious warnings at boot time.

After each CPU has been started, we iterate through a list of

For each feature/bug there is a function which checks if that
particular CPU is affected. We will later provide some more generic
functions for common things like testing for certain MIDR ranges.
We do this for every CPU to cover big.LITTLE systems properly as
well.
If a certain feature/bug has been detected, the capability bit will

Unexpected variation in certain system register values across CPUs is an
indicator of potential problems with a system. The kernel expects CPUs
to be mostly identical in terms of supported features, even in systems
with heterogeneous CPUs, with uniform instruction set support being
critical for the correct operation of userspace.
To help detect issues early where hardware violates the expectations of
the kernel, this patch adds simple runtime sanity checks on important ID
registers in the bring up path of each CPU.
Where CPUs are fundamentally mismatched, set TAINT_CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC.
Given that the kernel assumes CPUs are identical feature wise, let's not
pretend that we expect such configurations to work. Supporting such
configurations would require massive rework, and hopefully they will
never exist.

In big.LITTLE systems, the I-cache policy may differ across CPUs, and
thus we must always meet the most stringent maintenance requirements of
any I-cache in the system when performing maintenance to ensure
correctness. Unfortunately this requirement is not met as we always look
at the current CPU's cache type register to determine the maintenance
requirements.
This patch causes the I-cache policy of all CPUs to be taken into
account for icache_is_aliasing and icache_is_aivivt. If any I-cache in
the system is aliasing or AIVIVT, the respective function will return
true. At boot each CPU may set flags to identify that at least one
I-cache in the system is aliasing and/or AIVIVT.
The now unused and potentially misleading icache_policy function is
