A while back we added {read,write}_sysreg accessors to handle accesses
to system registers, without the usual boilerplate asm volatile,
temporary variable, etc.

This patch makes use of these across arm64 to make code shorter and
clearer. For sequences with a trailing ISB, the existing isb() macro is
also used so that asm blocks can be removed entirely.

A few uses of inline assembly for msr/mrs are left as-is. Those
manipulating sp_el0 for the current thread_info value have special
clobber requiremends.

EL2 page tables can be configured to deny code from being
executed, which is done by setting bit 54 in the page descriptor.

It is the same bit as PTE_UXN, but the "USER" reference felt odd
in the hypervisor code.

<title>arm64: Ensure pmd_present() returns false after pmd_mknotpresent()</title>

<id>5bb1cc0ff9a6b68871970737e6c4c16919928d8b</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, pmd_present() only checks for a non-zero value, returning
true even after pmd_mknotpresent() (which only clears the type bits).
This patch converts pmd_present() to using pte_present(), similar to the
other pmd_*() checks. As a side effect, it will return true for
PROT_NONE mappings, though they are not yet used by the kernel with
transparent huge pages.

For consistency, also change pmd_mknotpresent() to only clear the
PMD_SECT_VALID bit, even though the PMD_TABLE_BIT is already 0 for block
mappings (no functional change). The unused PMD_SECT_PROT_NONE
definition is removed as transparent huge pages use the pte page prot
values.

TCR_EL1, TCR_EL2 and VTCR_EL2, all share some field positions
(TG0, ORGN0, IRGN0 and SH0) and their corresponding value definitions.

This patch makes the TCR_EL1 definitions reusable and uses them for TCR_EL2
and VTCR_EL2 fields.

This also fixes a bug where we assume TG0 in {V}TCR_EL2 is 1bit field.

<title>arm64: hugetlb: add support for PTE contiguous bit</title>

<id>66b3923a1a0f77a563b43f43f6ad091354abbfe9</id>
<content type='text'>
The arm64 MMU supports a Contiguous bit which is a hint that the TTE
is one of a set of contiguous entries which can be cached in a single
TLB entry.  Supporting this bit adds new intermediate huge page sizes.

The set of huge page sizes available depends on the base page size.
Without using contiguous pages the huge page sizes are as follows.

 4KB:   2MB  1GB
64KB: 512MB

With a 4KB granule, the contiguous bit groups together sets of 16 pages
and with a 64KB granule it groups sets of 32 pages.  This enables two new
huge page sizes in each case, so that the full set of available sizes
is as follows.

 4KB:  64KB   2MB  32MB  1GB
64KB:   2MB 512MB  16GB

If a 16KB granule is used then the contiguous bit groups 128 pages
at the PTE level and 32 pages at the PMD level.

If the base page size is set to 64KB then 2MB pages are enabled by
default.  It is possible in the future to make 2MB the default huge
page size for both 4KB and 64KB granules.

<title>arm64: Add support for hardware updates of the access and dirty pte bits</title>

<id>2f4b829c625ec36c2d80bef6395c7b74cea8aac0</id>
<content type='text'>
The ARMv8.1 architecture extensions introduce support for hardware
updates of the access and dirty information in page table entries. With
TCR_EL1.HA enabled, when the CPU accesses an address with the PTE_AF bit
cleared in the page table, instead of raising an access flag fault the
CPU sets the actual page table entry bit. To ensure that kernel
modifications to the page tables do not inadvertently revert a change
introduced by hardware updates, the exclusive monitor (ldxr/stxr) is
adopted in the pte accessors.

When TCR_EL1.HD is enabled, a write access to a memory location with the
DBM (Dirty Bit Management) bit set in the corresponding pte
automatically clears the read-only bit (AP[2]). Such DBM bit maps onto
the Linux PTE_WRITE bit and to check whether a writable (DBM set) page
is dirty, the kernel tests the PTE_RDONLY bit. In order to allow
read-only and dirty pages, the kernel needs to preserve the software
dirty bit. The hardware dirty status is transferred to the software
dirty bit in ptep_set_wrprotect() (using load/store exclusive loop) and
pte_modify().

adopted in the pte accessors.

When TCR_EL1.HD is enabled, a write access to a memory location with the
DBM (Dirty Bit Management) bit set in the corresponding pte
automatically clears the read-only bit (AP[2]). Such DBM bit maps onto
the Linux PTE_WRITE bit and to check whether a writable (DBM set) page
is dirty, the kernel tests the PTE_RDONLY bit. In order to allow
read-only and dirty pages, the kernel needs to preserve the software
dirty bit. The hardware dirty status is transferred to the software
dirty bit in ptep_set_wrprotect() (using load/store exclusive loop) and
pte_modify().

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "Here are the core arm64 updates for 4.1.

  Highlights include a significant rework to head.S (allowing us to boot
  on machines with physical memory at a really high address), an AES
  performance boost on Cortex-A57 and the ability to run a 32-bit
  userspace with 64k pages (although this requires said userspace to be
  built with a recent binutils).

  The head.S rework spilt over into KVM, so there are some changes under
  arch/arm/ which have been acked by Marc Zyngier (KVM co-maintainer).
  In particular, the linker script changes caused us some issues in
  -next, so there are a few merge commits where we had to apply fixes on
  top of a stable branch.

  Other changes include:

   - AES performance boost for Cortex-A57
   - AArch32 (compat) userspace with 64k pages
   - Cortex-A53 erratum workaround for #845719
   - defconfig updates (new platforms, PCI, ...)"

* tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (39 commits)
  arm64: fix midr range for Cortex-A57 erratum 832075
  arm64: errata: add workaround for cortex-a53 erratum #845719
  arm64: Use bool function return values of true/false not 1/0
  arm64: defconfig: updates for 4.1
  arm64: Extract feature parsing code from cpu_errata.c
  arm64: alternative: Allow immediate branch as alternative instruction
  arm64: insn: Add aarch64_insn_decode_immediate
  ARM: kvm: round HYP section to page size instead of log2 upper bound
  ARM: kvm: assert on HYP section boundaries not actual code size
  arm64: head.S: ensure idmap_t0sz is visible
  arm64: pmu: add support for interrupt-affinity property

  arm64: KVM: use ID map with increased VA range if required
  arm64: mm: increase VA range of identity map
  ARM: kvm: implement replacement for ld's LOG2CEIL()
  arm64: proc: remove unused cpu_get_pgd macro
  arm64: enforce x1|x2|x3 == 0 upon kernel entry as per boot protocol
