    arm64: Introduce uaccess_{disable,enable} functionality based on TTBR0_EL1 · 4b65a5db
    Catalin Marinas authored
    This patch adds the uaccess macros/functions to disable access to user
    space by setting TTBR0_EL1 to a reserved zeroed page. Since the value
    written to TTBR0_EL1 must be a physical address, for simplicity this
    patch introduces a reserved_ttbr0 page at a constant offset from
    swapper_pg_dir. The uaccess_disable code uses the ttbr1_el1 value
    adjusted by the reserved_ttbr0 offset.
    
    Enabling access to user is done by restoring TTBR0_EL1 with the value
    from the struct thread_info ttbr0 variable. Interrupts must be disabled
    during the uaccess_ttbr0_enable code to ensure the atomicity of the
    thread_info.ttbr0 read and TTBR0_EL1 write. This patch also moves the
    get_thread_info asm macro from entry.S to assembler.h for reuse in the
    uaccess_ttbr0_* macros.
