Commit e7607f7d6d81 ("ARM: 9443/1: Require linker to support KEEP within
OVERLAY for DCE") accidentally broke the binutils version restriction
that was added in commit 0d437918fb64 ("ARM: 9414/1: Fix build issue
with LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION"), reintroducing the segmentation
fault addressed by that workaround.

Restore the binutils version dependency by using
CONFIG_LD_CAN_USE_KEEP_IN_OVERLAY as an additional condition to ensure
that CONFIG_HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is only enabled with
binutils &gt;= 2.36 and ld.lld &gt;= 21.0.0.

<title>ARM: 9448/1: Use an absolute path to unified.h in KBUILD_AFLAGS</title>

<content type='text'>
After commit d5c8d6e0fa61 ("kbuild: Update assembler calls to use proper
flags and language target"), which updated as-instr to use the
'assembler-with-cpp' language option, the Kbuild version of as-instr
always fails internally for arch/arm with

  &lt;command-line&gt;: fatal error: asm/unified.h: No such file or directory
  compilation terminated.

because '-include' flags are now taken into account by the compiler
driver and as-instr does not have '$(LINUXINCLUDE)', so unified.h is not
found.

This went unnoticed at the time of the Kbuild change because the last
use of as-instr in Kbuild that arch/arm could reach was removed in 5.7
by commit 541ad0150ca4 ("arm: Remove 32bit KVM host support") but a
stable backport of the Kbuild change to before that point exposed this
potential issue if one were to be reintroduced.

Follow the general pattern of '-include' paths throughout the tree and
make unified.h absolute using '$(srctree)' to ensure KBUILD_AFLAGS can
be used independently.

Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
 "Two important arm64 fixes ahead of the 6.16 release.

  The first fixes a regression introduced during the merge window where
  the KVM UUID (which is used to advertise KVM-specific hypercalls for
  things like time synchronisation in the guest) was corrupted thanks to
  an endianness bug introduced when converting the code to use the
  UUID_INIT() helper.

  The second fixes a stack-pointer corruption issue during
  context-switch which has been observed in the wild when taking a
  pseudo-NMI with shadow call stack enabled.

  Summary:

   - Fix broken UUID value for the KVM/arm64 hypervisor SMCCC interface

   - Fix stack corruption on context-switch, primarily seen on (but not
     limited to) configurations with both pNMI and SCS enabled"

kvm_xen_schedop_poll does a kmalloc_array() when a VM polls the host
for more than one event channel potr (nr_ports &gt; 1).

After the kmalloc_array(), the error paths need to go through the
"out" label, but the call to kvm_read_guest_virt() does not.

Sometimes the netdev triggers causes tasks to get blocked for more then
120 seconds, which in turn makes the (WAN) network port on the NanoPi
R5S fail to come up.
This results in the following (partial) trace:

Sometimes the netdev triggers causes tasks to get blocked for more then
120 seconds, which in turn makes the (WAN) network port on the NanoPi
R5S fail to come up.
This results in the following (partial) trace:

  INFO: task kworker/0:1:11 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

<title>arm64/entry: Mask DAIF in cpu_switch_to(), call_on_irq_stack()</title>

`cpu_switch_to()` and `call_on_irq_stack()` manipulate SP to change
to different stacks along with the Shadow Call Stack if it is enabled.
Those two stack changes cannot be done atomically and both functions
can be interrupted by SErrors or Debug Exceptions which, though unlikely,
is very much broken : if interrupted, we can end up with mismatched stacks
and Shadow Call Stack leading to clobbered stacks.

In `cpu_switch_to()`, it can happen when SP_EL0 points to the new task,
but x18 stills points to the old task's SCS. When the interrupt handler
tries to save the task's SCS pointer, it will save the old task
SCS pointer (x18) into the new task struct (pointed to by SP_EL0),
clobbering it.

In `call_on_irq_stack()`, it can happen when switching from the task stack
to the IRQ stack and when switching back. In both cases, we can be
interrupted when the SCS pointer points to the IRQ SCS, but SP points to
the task stack. The nested interrupt handler pushes its return addresses
on the IRQ SCS. It then detects that SP points to the task stack,
calls `call_on_irq_stack()` and clobbers the task SCS pointer with
the IRQ SCS pointer, which it will also use !

This leads to tasks returning to addresses on the wrong SCS,
or even on the IRQ SCS, triggering kernel panics via CONFIG_VMAP_STACK
or FPAC if enabled.

This is possible on a default config, but unlikely.
However, when enabling CONFIG_ARM64_PSEUDO_NMI, DAIF is unmasked and
instead the GIC is responsible for filtering what interrupts the CPU
should receive based on priority.
Given the goal of emulating NMIs, pseudo-NMIs can be received by the CPU
even in `cpu_switch_to()` and `call_on_irq_stack()`, possibly *very*
frequently depending on the system configuration and workload, leading
to unpredictable kernel panics.

Completely mask DAIF in `cpu_switch_to()` and restore it when returning.
Do the same in `call_on_irq_stack()`, but restore and mask around
the branch.
Mask DAIF even if CONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK is not enabled for consistency
of behaviour between all configurations.

Introduce and use an assembly macro for saving and masking DAIF,
as the existing one saves but only masks IF.
