commit 785a19f9d1dd8a4ab2d0633be4656653bd3de1fc upstream.

The following kernel panic was observed on ARM64 platform due to a stale
TLB entry.

 1. ioremap with 4K size, a valid pte page table is set.
 2. iounmap it, its pte entry is set to 0.
 3. ioremap the same address with 2M size, update its pmd entry with
    a new value.
 4. CPU may hit an exception because the old pmd entry is still in TLB,
    which leads to a kernel panic.

Commit b6bdb7517c3d ("mm/vmalloc: add interfaces to free unmapped page
table") has addressed this panic by falling to pte mappings in the above
case on ARM64.

To support pmd mappings in all cases, TLB purge needs to be performed
in this case on ARM64.

Add a new arg, 'addr', to pud_free_pmd_page() and pmd_free_pte_page()
so that TLB purge can be added later in seprate patches.

[ Upstream commit 7c8b77f81552c2b0e5d9c560da70bc4149ce66a5 ]

Heiko Stübner justified pretty well the change in commit e330eb86ba0b
("ARM: multi_v7_defconfig: enable Rockchip io-domain driver"). This
change is also needed for arm64 rockchip boards, so, do the same for arm64.

The io-domain driver is necessary to notify the soc about voltages
changes happening on supplying regulators. Probably the most important
user right now is the mmc tuning code, where the soc needs to get
notified when the voltage is dropped to the 1.8V point.

As this option is necessary to successfully tune UHS cards etc, it
should get built in. Otherwise, tuning will fail with,

   dwmmc_rockchip fe320000.dwmmc: All phases bad!
   mmc0: tuning execution failed: -5

[ Upstream commit 1cfc63b5ae60fe7e01773f38132f98d8b13a99a0 ]

When waiting for a cacheline to change state in cmpwait, we may immediately
wake-up the first time around the outer loop if the event register was
already set (for example, because of the event stream).

Avoid these spurious wakeups by explicitly clearing the event register
before loading the cacheline and setting the exclusive monitor.

<title>arm64: fix vmemmap BUILD_BUG_ON() triggering on !vmemmap setups</title>

commit 7b0eb6b41a08fa1fa0d04b1c53becd62b5fbfaee upstream.

Arnd reports the following arm64 randconfig build error with the PSI
patches that add another page flag:

  /git/arm-soc/arch/arm64/mm/init.c: In function 'mem_init':
  /git/arm-soc/include/linux/compiler.h:357:38: error: call to
  '__compiletime_assert_618' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON
  failed: sizeof(struct page) &gt; (1 &lt;&lt; STRUCT_PAGE_MAX_SHIFT)

The additional page flag causes other information stored in
page-&gt;flags to get bumped into their own struct page member:

  #if SECTIONS_WIDTH+ZONES_WIDTH+NODES_SHIFT+LAST_CPUPID_SHIFT &lt;=
  BITS_PER_LONG - NR_PAGEFLAGS
  #define LAST_CPUPID_WIDTH LAST_CPUPID_SHIFT
  #else
  #define LAST_CPUPID_WIDTH 0
  #endif

  #if defined(CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING) &amp;&amp; LAST_CPUPID_WIDTH == 0
  #define LAST_CPUPID_NOT_IN_PAGE_FLAGS
  #endif

which in turn causes the struct page size to exceed the size set in
STRUCT_PAGE_MAX_SHIFT. This value is an an estimate used to size the
VMEMMAP page array according to address space and struct page size.

However, the check is performed - and triggers here - on a !VMEMMAP
config, which consumes an additional 22 page bits for the sparse
section id. When VMEMMAP is enabled, those bits are returned, cpupid
doesn't need its own member, and the page passes the VMEMMAP check.

Restrict that check to the situation it was meant to check: that we
are sizing the VMEMMAP page array correctly.

Says Arnd:

    Further experiments show that the build error already existed before,
    but was only triggered with larger values of CONFIG_NR_CPU and/or
    CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT that might be used in actual configurations but
    not in randconfig builds.

    With longer CPU and node masks, I could recreate the problem with
    kernels as old as linux-4.7 when arm64 NUMA support got added.

commit b4f18c063a13dfb33e3a63fe1844823e19c2265e upstream.

In order to forward the guest's ARCH_WORKAROUND_2 calls to EL3,
add a small(-ish) sequence to handle it at EL2. Special care must
be taken to track the state of the guest itself by updating the
workaround flags. We also rely on patching to enable calls into
the firmware.

Note that since we need to execute branches, this always executes
after the Spectre-v2 mitigation has been applied.

commit 55e3748e8902ff641e334226bdcb432f9a5d78d3 upstream.

In order to offer ARCH_WORKAROUND_2 support to guests, we need
a bit of infrastructure.

Let's add a flag indicating whether or not the guest uses
SSBD mitigation. Depending on the state of this flag, allow
KVM to disable ARCH_WORKAROUND_2 before entering the guest,
and enable it when exiting it.

commit 85478bab409171de501b719971fd25a3d5d639f9 upstream.

As we're going to require to access per-cpu variables at EL2,
let's craft the minimum set of accessors required to implement
reading a per-cpu variable, relying on tpidr_el2 to contain the
per-cpu offset.

commit 9cdc0108baa8ef87c76ed834619886a46bd70cbe upstream.

If running on a system that performs dynamic SSBD mitigation, allow
userspace to request the mitigation for itself. This is implemented
as a prctl call, allowing the mitigation to be enabled or disabled at
will for this particular thread.

commit 9dd9614f5476687abbff8d4b12cd08ae70d7c2ad upstream.

In order to allow userspace to be mitigated on demand, let's
introduce a new thread flag that prevents the mitigation from
being turned off when exiting to userspace, and doesn't turn
it on on entry into the kernel (with the assumption that the
mitigation is always enabled in the kernel itself).

This will be used by a prctl interface introduced in a later
patch.
