[ Upstream commit 9163f01130304fab1f74683d7d44632da7bda637 ]

When using CONFIG_ARM64_SW_TTBR0_PAN, a task's thread_info::ttbr0 must be
the TTBR0_EL1 value used to run userspace. With 52-bit PAs, the PA must be
packed into the TTBR using phys_to_ttbr(), but we forget to do this in some
of the SW PAN code. Thus, if the value is installed into TTBR0_EL1 (as may
happen in the uaccess routines), this could result in UNPREDICTABLE
behaviour.

Since hardware with 52-bit PA support almost certainly has HW PAN, which
will be used in preference, this shouldn't be a practical issue, but let's
fix this for consistency.

Use sysfs_emit instead of snprintf to avoid buf overrun,because in
sysfs_emit it strictly checks whether buf is null or buf whether
pagesize aligned, otherwise it returns an error.

<title>sched/core: Initialize the idle task with preemption disabled</title>

[ Upstream commit f1a0a376ca0c4ef1fc3d24e3e502acbb5b795674 ]

As pointed out by commit

  de9b8f5dcbd9 ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread")

init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle
task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by
sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary
CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them.

As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue
calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again.
In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at
bringup_cpu().

Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible*
CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing
init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations
with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always
issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0
between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by
idle_thread_get() -&gt; idle_init().

Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never
see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its
preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove
init_idle() from idle_thread_get().

Secondary startups were patched via coccinelle:

  @begone@
  @@

  -preempt_disable();
  ...
  cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE);

<title>arm64: entry: always set GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET during entry</title>

[ Upstream commit 4d6a38da8e79e94cbd1344aa90876f0f805db705 ]

Zenghui reports that booting a kernel with "irqchip.gicv3_pseudo_nmi=1"
on the command line hits a warning during kernel entry, due to the way
we manipulate the PMR.

Early in the entry sequence, we call lockdep_hardirqs_off() to inform
lockdep that interrupts have been masked (as the HW sets DAIF wqhen
entering an exception). Architecturally PMR_EL1 is not affected by
exception entry, and we don't set GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET in the PMR early in
the exception entry sequence, so early in exception entry the PMR can
indicate that interrupts are unmasked even though they are masked by
DAIF.

If DEBUG_LOCKDEP is selected, lockdep_hardirqs_off() will check that
interrupts are masked, before we set GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET in any of the
exception entry paths, and hence lockdep_hardirqs_off() will WARN() that
something is amiss.

We can avoid this by consistently setting GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET during
exception entry so that kernel code sees a consistent environment. We
must also update local_daif_inherit() to undo this, as currently only
touches DAIF. For other paths, local_daif_restore() will update both
DAIF and the PMR. With this done, we can remove the existing special
cases which set this later in the entry code.

We always use (GIC_PRIO_IRQON | GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET) for consistency with
local_daif_save(), as this will warn if it ever encounters
(GIC_PRIO_IRQOFF | GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET), and never sets this itself. This
matches the gic_prio_kentry_setup that we have to retain for
ret_to_user.

The original splat from Zenghui's report was:

[ Upstream commit 9eb563cdabe1d583c262042d5d44cc256f644543 ]

In subsequent patches we'll allow an FIQ handler to be registered, and
FIQ exceptions will need to be triaged very similarly to IRQ exceptions.
So that we can reuse the existing logic, this patch factors the IRQ
triage logic out into macros that can be reused for FIQ.

The macros are named to follow the elX_foo_handler scheme used by the C
exception handlers. For consistency with other top-level exception
handlers, the kernel_entry/kernel_exit logic is not moved into the
macros. As FIQ will use a different C handler, this handler name is
provided as an argument to the macros.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

[ Upstream commit 8533d5bfad41e74b7dd80d292fd484913cdfb374 ]

We removed the terminal frame records in commit:

   6106e1112cc69a36 ("arm64: remove EL0 exception frame record")

... on the assumption that as we no longer used them to find the pt_regs
at exception boundaries, they were no longer necessary.

However, Leo reports that as an unintended side-effect, this causes
traces which cross secondary_start_kernel to terminate one entry too
late, with a spurious "0" entry.

There are a few ways we could sovle this, but as we're planning to use
terminal records for RELIABLE_STACKTRACE, let's revert the logic change
for now, keeping the update comments and accounting for the changes in
commit:

  3c02600144bdb0a1 ("arm64: stacktrace: Report when we reach the end of the stack")

This is effectively a partial revert of commit:

[ Upstream commit 388708028e6937f3fc5fc19aeeb847f8970f489c ]

The arm64 assembler in binutils 2.32 and above generates a program
property note in a note section, .note.gnu.property, to encode used x86
ISAs and features. But the kernel linker script only contains a single
NOTE segment:

  PHDRS
  {
    text    PT_LOAD    FLAGS(5) FILEHDR PHDRS; /* PF_R|PF_X */
    dynamic PT_DYNAMIC FLAGS(4);               /* PF_R */
    note    PT_NOTE    FLAGS(4);               /* PF_R */
  }

The NOTE segment generated by the vDSO linker script is aligned to 4 bytes.
But the .note.gnu.property section must be aligned to 8 bytes on arm64.

  $ readelf -n vdso64.so

  Displaying notes found in: .note
    Owner                Data size      Description
    Linux                0x00000004     Unknown note type: (0x00000000)

  readelf: Warning:  type: 0x78, namesize: 0x00000100, descsize: 0x756e694c, alignment: 8

Since the note.gnu.property section in the vDSO is not checked by the
dynamic linker, discard the .note.gnu.property sections in the vDSO.

Similar to commit 4caffe6a28d31 ("x86/vdso: Discard .note.gnu.property
sections in vDSO"), but for arm64.

CONFIG_KASAN_STACK and CONFIG_KASAN_STACK_ENABLE both enable KASAN stack
instrumentation, but we should only need one config, so that we remove
CONFIG_KASAN_STACK_ENABLE and make CONFIG_KASAN_STACK workable.  see [1].

When enable KASAN stack instrumentation, then for gcc we could do no

If instruction being single stepped caused a page fault, the kprobes
is cancelled to let the page fault handler continue as a normal page
fault. But the local irqflags are disabled so cpu will restore pstate
with DAIF masked. After pagefault is serviced, the kprobes is
triggerred again, we overwrite the saved_irqflag by calling
kprobes_save_local_irqflag(). NOTE, DAIF is masked in this new saved
irqflag. After kprobes is serviced, the cpu pstate is retored with
DAIF masked.

This patch is inspired by one patch for riscv from Liao Chang.
