commit 39533e12063be7f55e3d6ae21ffe067799d542a4 upstream.

Commit 606f8e7b27bf ("arm64: capabilities: Use linear array for
detection and verification") changed the way we deal with per-CPU errata
by only calling the .matches() callback until one CPU is found to be
affected. At this point, .matches() stop being called, and .cpu_enable()
will be called on all CPUs.

This breaks the ARCH_WORKAROUND_2 handling, as only a single CPU will be
mitigated.

In order to address this, forcefully call the .matches() callback from a
.cpu_enable() callback, which brings us back to the original behaviour.

commit 18fce56134c987e5b4eceddafdbe4b00c07e2ae1 upstream.

Commit 73f381660959 ("arm64: Advertise mitigation of Spectre-v2, or lack
thereof") changed the way we deal with ARCH_WORKAROUND_1, by moving most
of the enabling code to the .matches() callback.

This has the unfortunate effect that the workaround gets only enabled on
the first affected CPU, and no other.

In order to address this, forcefully call the .matches() callback from a
.cpu_enable() callback, which brings us back to the original behaviour.

[ Upstream commit 490d7b7c0845eacf5593db333fd2ae7715416e16 ]

Writes to the PMXEVTYPER_EL0 register are not self-synchronising. In
armv8pmu_enable_event(), the PE can reorder configuring the event type
after we have enabled the counter and the interrupt. This can lead to an
interrupt being asserted because of the previous event type that we were
counting using the same counter, not the one that we've just configured.

The same rationale applies to writes to the PMINTENSET_EL1 register. The PE
can reorder enabling the interrupt at any point in the future after we have
enabled the event.

Prevent both situations from happening by adding an ISB just before we
enable the event counter.

<title>arm64: kprobe: add checks for ARMv8.3-PAuth combined instructions</title>

[ Upstream commit 93396936ed0ce2c6f44140bd14728611d0bb065e ]

Currently the ARMv8.3-PAuth combined branch instructions (braa, retaa
etc.) are not simulated for out-of-line execution with a handler. Hence the
uprobe of such instructions leads to kernel warnings in a loop as they are
not explicitly checked and fall into INSN_GOOD categories. Other combined
instructions like LDRAA and LDRBB can be probed.

The issue of the combined branch instructions is fixed by adding
group definitions of all such instructions and rejecting their probes.
The instruction groups added are br_auth(braa, brab, braaz and brabz),
blr_auth(blraa, blrab, blraaz and blrabz), ret_auth(retaa and retab) and
eret_auth(eretaa and eretab).

We seem to be pretending that we don't have any firmware mitigation
when KVM is not compiled in, which is not quite expected.

Bring back the mitigation in this case.

commit 75df529bec9110dad43ab30e2d9490242529e8b8 upstream.

Steal time initialization requires mapping a memory region which
invokes a memory allocation. Doing this at CPU starting time results
in the following trace when CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP is enabled:

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slab.h:498
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 128, non_block: 0, pid: 0, name: swapper/1

However we don't need to initialize steal time at CPU starting time.
We can simply wait until CPU online time, just sacrificing a bit of
accuracy by returning zero for steal time until we know better.

While at it, add __init to the functions that are only called by
pv_time_init() which is __init.

[ Upstream commit ed888cb0d1ebce69f12794e89fbd5e2c86d40b8d ]

Now that we allow CPUs affected by erratum 1418040 to come in late,
this prevents their unaffected sibblings from coming in late (or
coming back after a suspend or hotplug-off, which amounts to the
same thing).

To allow this, we need to add ARM64_CPUCAP_OPTIONAL_FOR_LATE_CPU,
which amounts to set .type to ARM64_CPUCAP_WEAK_LOCAL_CPU_FEATURE.

<title>arm64/module: set trampoline section flags regardless of CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit e0328feda79d9681b3e3245e6e180295550c8ee9 ]

In the arm64 module linker script, the section .text.ftrace_trampoline
is specified unconditionally regardless of whether CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE
is enabled (this is simply due to the limitation that module linker
scripts are not preprocessed like the vmlinux one).

Normally, for .plt and .text.ftrace_trampoline, the section flags
present in the module binary wouldn't matter since module_frob_arch_sections()
would assign them manually anyway. However, the arm64 module loader only
sets the section flags for .text.ftrace_trampoline when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE=y.
That's only become problematic recently due to a recent change in
binutils-2.35, where the .text.ftrace_trampoline section (along with the
.plt section) is now marked writable and executable (WAX).

We no longer allow writable and executable sections to be loaded due to
commit 5c3a7db0c7ec ("module: Harden STRICT_MODULE_RWX"), so this is
causing all modules linked with binutils-2.35 to be rejected under arm64.
Drop the IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE) check in module_frob_arch_sections()
so that the section flags for .text.ftrace_trampoline get properly set to
SHF_EXECINSTR|SHF_ALLOC, without SHF_WRITE.

commit e9ee186bb735bfc17fa81dbc9aebf268aee5b41e upstream.

KVM has a one instruction window where it will allow an SError exception
to be consumed by the hypervisor without treating it as a hypervisor bug.
This is used to consume asynchronous external abort that were caused by
the guest.

As we are about to add another location that survives unexpected exceptions,
generalise this code to make it behave like the host's extable.

KVM's version has to be mapped to EL2 to be accessible on nVHE systems.

The SError vaxorcism code is a one instruction window, so has two entries
in the extable. Because the KVM code is copied for VHE and nVHE, we end up
with four entries, half of which correspond with code that isn't mapped.
