[ Upstream commit 5cd474e57368f0957c343bb21e309cf82826b1ef ]

Interrupts are blocked in SDEI context, per the SDEI spec: "The client
interrupts cannot preempt the event handler." If we crashed in the SDEI
handler-running context (as with ACPI's AGDI) then we need to clean up the
SDEI state before proceeding to the crash kernel so that the crash kernel
can have working interrupts.

Track the active SDEI handler per-cpu so that we can COMPLETE_AND_RESUME
the handler, discarding the interrupted context.

<title>arm64: entry: fix NMI {user, kernel}-&gt;kernel transitions</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f0cd5ac1e4c53cb691b3ed3cda1031e1c42153e2</id>
<content type='text'>
Exceptions which can be taken at (almost) any time are consdiered to be
NMIs. On arm64 that includes:

* SDEI events
* GICv3 Pseudo-NMIs
* Kernel stack overflows
* Unexpected/unhandled exceptions

... but currently debug exceptions (BRKs, breakpoints, watchpoints,
single-step) are not considered NMIs.

As these can be taken at any time, kernel features (lockdep, RCU,
ftrace) may not be in a consistent kernel state. For example, we may
take an NMI from the idle code or partway through an entry/exit path.

While nmi_enter() and nmi_exit() handle most of this state, notably they
don't save/restore the lockdep state across an NMI being taken and
handled. When interrupts are enabled and an NMI is taken, lockdep may
see interrupts become disabled within the NMI code, but not see
interrupts become enabled when returning from the NMI, leaving lockdep
believing interrupts are disabled when they are actually disabled.

The x86 code handles this in idtentry_{enter,exit}_nmi(), which will
shortly be moved to the generic entry code. As we can't use either yet,
we copy the x86 approach in arm64-specific helpers. All the NMI
entrypoints are marked as noinstr to prevent any instrumentation
handling code being invoked before the state has been corrected.

Add helpers to wrap the get_fs/set_fs magic for undoing any damange done
by set_fs(KERNEL_DS).  There is no real functional benefit, but this
documents the intent of these calls better, and will allow stubbing the
functions out easily for kernels builds that do not allow address space
overrides in the future.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "A sizeable pile of arm64 updates for 5.8.

  Summary below, but the big two features are support for Branch Target
  Identification and Clang's Shadow Call stack. The latter is currently
  arm64-only, but the high-level parts are all in core code so it could
  easily be adopted by other architectures pending toolchain support

  Branch Target Identification (BTI):

   - Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This allows
     branch targets to limit the types of branch from which they can be
     called and additionally prevents branching to arbitrary code,
     although kernel support requires a very recent toolchain.

   - Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly functions
     are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad" instructions.

   - BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions.

   - Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to userspace
     via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader support for the
     BTI feature in .note.gnu.property.

   - Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn
     trampoline.

  Shadow Call Stack (SCS):

   - Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves
     platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each task
     that holds only return addresses. This protects function return
     control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack.

   - Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode,
     hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc).

   - Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it
     too.

   - SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing
     stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y.

  CPU feature detection:

   - Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system
     with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a concern
     for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on such a system.

   - Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has
     been extended.

  Perf and PMU drivers:

   - Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers.

  Hardware errata:

   - Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations.

   - Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig.

  Secure Monitor Call Calling Convention (SMCCC):

   - Update to the latest specification from Arm (v1.2).

   - Allow PSCI code to query the SMCCC version.

  Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI):

   - Unexport a bunch of unused symbols.

   - Minor fixes to handling of firmware data.

  Pointer authentication:

   - Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so that
     the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump.

   - Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup.

  BPF backend:

   - Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub instructions.

  vDSO:

   - Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other
     architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder.

   - Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace.

  ACPI:

   - Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating to
     the "num_ids" field.

   - Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only PCIe
     root complexes.

   - Minor other IORT-related fixes.

  Miscellaneous:

   - Initialise debug traps early for KGDB and fix KDB cacheflushing
     deadlock.

   - Minor tweaks to early boot state (documentation update, set
     TEXT_OFFSET to 0x0, increase alignment of PE/COFF sections).

   - Refactoring and cleanup"

<content type='text'>
When doing unwind_frame() in the context of pseudo nmi (need enable
CONFIG_ARM64_PSEUDO_NMI), reaching the bottom of the stack (fp == 0,
pc != 0), function on_sdei_stack() will return true while the sdei acpi
table is not inited in fact. This will cause a "NULL pointer dereference"
oops when going on.

<content type='text'>
The SDEI stack helper functions are only used by _on_sdei_stack() and
refer to symbols (e.g. sdei_stack_normal_ptr) that are only defined if
CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y.

Mark these functions as static, so we don't run into errors at link-time
due to references to undefined symbols. Stick all the parameters onto
the same line whilst we're passing through.
