Will Deacon c0d3fce5e1 arm64: switch_to: calculate cpu context pointer using separate register
Commit 0c8c0f03e3 ("x86/fpu, sched: Dynamically allocate 'struct fpu'")
moved the thread_struct to the bottom of task_struct. As a result, the
offset is now too large to be used in an immediate add on arm64 with
some kernel configs:

arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S: Assembler messages:
arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S:588: Error: immediate out of range
arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S:597: Error: immediate out of range

This patch calculates the offset using an additional register instead of
an immediate offset.

Mark Rutland 1b42804d27 arm64: entry: handle debug exceptions in el*_inv
Currently we enable debug exceptions before reading ESR_EL1 in both
el0_inv and el1_inv. If a debug exception is taken before we read
ESR_EL1, the value will have been corrupted.

As el*_inv is typically fatal, an intervening debug exception results in
misleading debug information being logged to the console, but is not
otherwise harmful.

As with the other entry paths, we can use the ESR_EL1 value stashed
earlier in the exception entry (in x25 for el0_sync{,_compat}, and x1
for el1_sync), giving us better error reporting in this case.

Mark Rutland 46b0567c85 arm64: entry: fix context tracking for el0_sp_pc
Commit 6c81fe7925 ("arm64: enable context tracking") did not
update el0_sp_pc to use ct_user_exit, but this appears to have been
unintentional. In commit 6ab6463aeb ("arm64: adjust el0_sync so
that a function can be called") we made x0 available, and in the return
to userspace we call ct_user_enter in the kernel_exit macro.

Due to this, we currently don't correctly inform RCU of the user->kernel
transition, and may erroneously account for time spent in the kernel as
if we were in an extended quiescent state when CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING
is enabled.

As we do record the kernel->user transition, a userspace application
making accesses from an unaligned stack pointer can demonstrate the
imbalance, provoking the following warning:

Josh Stone 04d7e098f5 arm64: fix missing syscall trace exit
If a syscall is entered without TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE set, then it goes on
the fast path.  It's then possible to have TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE added in
the middle of the syscall, but ret_fast_syscall doesn't check this flag
again.  This causes a ptrace syscall-exit-stop to be missed.

For instance, from a PTRACE_EVENT_FORK reported during do_fork, the
tracer might resume with PTRACE_SYSCALL, setting TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE.
Now the completion of the fork should have a syscall-exit-stop.

Russell King fixed this on arm by re-checking _TIF_SYSCALL_WORK in the
fast exit path.  Do the same on arm64.

When running a compat (AArch32) userspace on Cortex-A53, a load at EL0
from a virtual address that matches the bottom 32 bits of the virtual

This patch works around the issue by writing to the contextidr_el1

If tracer modifies a syscall number to -1, this traced system call should
be skipped with a return value specified in x0.
This patch implements this semantics.

Please note:
* syscall entry tracing and syscall exit tracing (ftrace tracepoint and
  audit) are always executed, if enabled, even when skipping a system call
  (that is, -1).
  In this way, we can avoid a potential bug where audit_syscall_entry()
  might be called without audit_syscall_exit() at the previous system call
  being called, that would cause OOPs in audit_syscall_entry().

Will Deacon 63648dd20f arm64: entry: use ldp/stp instead of push/pop when saving/restoring regs
The push/pop instructions can be suboptimal when saving/restoring large
amounts of data to/from the stack, for example on entry/exit from the
kernel. This is because:

  (1) They act on descending addresses (i.e. the newly decremented sp),
      which may defeat some hardware prefetchers

  (2) They introduce an implicit dependency between each instruction, as
      the sp has to be updated in order to resolve the address of the
      next access.

This patch removes the push/pop instructions from our kernel entry/exit
macros in favour of ldp/stp plus offset.

Will Deacon 1059c6bf85 arm64: debug: don't re-enable debug exceptions on return from el1_dbg
When returning from a debug exception taken from EL1, we unmask debug
exceptions after handling the exception. This is crucial for debug
exceptions taken from EL0, so that any kernel work on the ret_to_user
path can be debugged by kgdb.

However, when returning back to EL1 the only thing left to do is to
restore the original register state before the exception return. If
single-step has been enabled by the debug exception handler, we will
get stuck in an infinite debug exception loop, since we will take the
step exception as soon as we unmask debug exceptions.

This patch avoids unmasking debug exceptions on the debug exception
return path when the exception was taken from EL1.

Make calls to ct_user_enter when the kernel is exited
and ct_user_exit when the kernel is entered (in el0_da,
el0_ia, el0_svc, el0_irq and all of the "error" paths).

These macros expand to function calls which will only work
properly if el0_sync and related code has been rearranged
(in a previous patch of this series).

The calls to ct_user_exit are made after hw debugging has been
enabled (enable_dbg_and_irq).

The call to ct_user_enter is made at the beginning of the
kernel_exit macro.

This patch is based on earlier work by Kevin Hilman.

Larry Bassel 6ab6463aeb arm64: adjust el0_sync so that a function can be called
To implement the context tracker properly on arm64,
a function call needs to be made after debugging and
interrupts are turned on, but before the lr is changed
to point to ret_to_user(). If the function call
is made after the lr is changed the function will not
return to the correct place.

For similar reasons, defer the setting of x0 so that
it doesn't need to be saved around the function call
(save far_el1 in x26 temporarily instead).

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).

Ard Biesheuvel 005f78cd88 arm64: defer reloading a task's FPSIMD state to userland resume
If a task gets scheduled out and back in again and nothing has touched
its FPSIMD state in the mean time, there is really no reason to reload
it from memory. Similarly, repeated calls to kernel_neon_begin() and
kernel_neon_end() will preserve and restore the FPSIMD state every time.

This patch defers the FPSIMD state restore to the last possible moment,
i.e., right before the task returns to userland. If a task does not return to
userland at all (for any reason), the existing FPSIMD state is preserved
and may be reused by the owning task if it gets scheduled in again on the
same CPU.

This patch adds two more functions to abstract away from straight FPSIMD
register file saves and restores:
- fpsimd_restore_current_state -> ensure current's FPSIMD state is loaded
- fpsimd_flush_task_state -> invalidate live copies of a task's FPSIMD state

Commit f27dde8dee (sched: Add NEED_RESCHED to the preempt_count)
introduced the use of bit 31 in preempt_count for obscure scheduling
purposes.

This causes interrupts taken from EL0 to hit the (open coded) BUG when
this flag is flipped while handling the interrupt (we compare the
values before and after, and kill the kernel if they are different).

The fix is to stop messing with the preempt count entirely, as this
is already being dealt with in the generic code (irq_enter/irq_exit).

Will Deacon d50240a5f6 arm64: mm: permit use of tagged pointers at EL0
TCR.TBI0 can be used to cause hardware address translation to ignore the
top byte of userspace virtual addresses. Whilst not especially useful in
standard C programs, this can be used by JITs to `tag' pointers with
various pieces of metadata.

This patch enables this bit for AArch64 Linux, and adds a new file to
Documentation/arm64/ which describes some potential caveats when using
tagged virtual addresses.

Catalin Marinas 2600e130b3 arm64: Enable interrupts in the EL0 undef handler
do_undefinstr() has to be called with interrupts disabled since it may
read the instruction from the user address space which could lead to a
data abort and subsequent might_sleep() warning in do_page_fault().

Mark Rutland 381cc2b970 arm64: treat unhandled compat el0 traps as undef
Currently, if a compat process reads or writes from/to a disabled
cp15/cp14 register, the trap is not handled by the el0_sync_compat
handler, and the kernel will head to bad_mode, where it will die(), and
oops(). For 64 bit processes, disabled system register accesses are
currently treated as unhandled instructions.

This patch modifies entry.S to treat these unhandled traps as undefined
instructions, sending a SIGILL to userspace. This gives processes a
chance to handle this and stop using inaccessible registers, and
prevents further issues in the kernel as a result of the die().

Marc Zyngier 5c1ce6f7c2 arm64: add explicit symbols to ESR_EL1 decoding
The ESR_EL1 decoding process is a bit cryptic, and KVM has also
a need for the same constants.

Add a new esr.h file containing the appropriate exception classes
constants, and change entry.S to use it. Fix a small bug in the
EL1 breakpoint check while we're at it.
