ioremap_page_range doesn't honour break-before-make and attempts to put down huge mappings (using p*d_set_huge) over the top of pre-existing table entries. This leads to us leaking page table memory and also gives rise to TLB conflicts and spurious aborts, which have been seen in practice on Cortex-A75. Until this has been resolved, refuse to put block mappings when the existing entry is found to be present.

The ID_AA64DFR0_EL1.PMUVer field doesn't follow the usual ID registers scheme. While value 0xf indicates a non-architected PMU is implemented, values 0x1 to 0xe indicate an increasingly featureful architected PMU, as if the field were unsigned. For more details, see ARM DDI 0487C.a, D10.1.4, "Alternative ID scheme used for the Performance Monitors Extension version". Currently, we treat the field as signed, and erroneously bail out for values 0x8 to 0xe. Let's correct that.

We can't request IRQs in atomic context, so for ACPI systems we'll have to request them up-front, and later associate them with CPUs. This patch reorganises the arm_pmu code to do so. As we no longer have the arm_pmu structure at probe time, a number of prototypes need to be adjusted, requiring changes to the common arm_pmu code and arm_pmu platform code.

To support ACPI systems, we need to request IRQs before we know the associated PMU, and thus we need some percpu variable that the IRQ handler can find the PMU from. As we're going to request IRQs without the PMU, we can't rely on the arm_pmu::active_irqs mask, and similarly need to track requested IRQs with a percpu variable.

To support ACPI systems, we need to request IRQs before CPUs are hotplugged, and thus we need to request IRQs before we know their associated PMU. This is problematic if a PMU IRQ is pending out of reset, as it may be taken before we know the PMU, and thus the IRQ handler won't be able to handle it, leaving it screaming. To avoid such problems, lets request all IRQs in a disabled state, and explicitly enable/disable them at hotplug time, when we're sure the PMU has been probed.

The arm_pmu platform code explicitly checks for mismatched PPIs at probe time, while the ACPI code leaves this to the core code. Future refactoring will make this difficult for the core code to check, so let's have the ACPI code check this explicitly. As before, upon a failure we'll continue on without an interrupt. Ho hum.

In ACPI systems, we don't know the makeup of CPUs until we hotplug them on, and thus have to allocate the PMU datastructures at hotplug time. Thus, we must use GFP_ATOMIC allocations.

__show_regs pretty prints PC and LR by attempting to map them to kernel function names to improve the utility of crash reports. Unfortunately, this mapping is applied even when the pt_regs corresponds to user mode, resulting in a KASLR oracle. Avoid this issue by only looking up the function symbols when the register state indicates that we're actually running at EL1.

Stop printing a (ratelimited) kernel message for each instance of an unimplemented syscall being called. Userland making an unimplemented syscall is not necessarily misbehaviour and to be expected with a current userland running on an older kernel. Also, the current message looks scary to users but does not actually indicate a real problem nor help them narrow down the cause. Just rely on sys_ni_syscall() to return -ENOSYS.

In converting __range_ok() into a static inline, I inadvertently made it more type-safe, but without considering the ordering of the relevant conversions. This leads to quite a lot of Sparse noise about the fact that we use __chk_user_ptr() after addr has already been converted from a user pointer to an unsigned long. Rather than just adding another cast for the sake of shutting Sparse up, it seems reasonable to rework the types to make logical sense (although the resulting codegen for __range_ok() remains identical). The only callers this affects directly are our compat traps where the inferred "user-pointer-ness" of a register value now warrants explicit casting.

Commit fd8aa909 ("xen: optimize xenbus driver for multiple concurrent xenstore accesses") optimized xenbus concurrent accesses but in doing so broke UABI of /dev/xen/xenbus. Through /dev/xen/xenbus applications are in charge of xenbus message exchange with the correct header and body. Now, after the mentioned commit the replies received by application will no longer have the header req_id echoed back as it was on request (see specification below for reference), because that particular field is being overwritten by kernel. struct xsd_sockmsg { uint32_t type; /* XS_??? */ uint32_t req_id;/* Request identifier, echoed in daemon's response. */ uint32_t tx_id; /* Transaction id (0 if not related to a transaction). */ uint32_t len; /* Length of data following this. */ /* Generally followed by nul-terminated string(s). */ }; Before there was only one request at a time so req_id could simply be forwarded back and forth. To allow simultaneous requests we need a different req_id for each message thus kernel keeps a monotonic increasing counter for this field and is written on every request irrespective of userspace value. Forwarding again the req_id on userspace requests is not a solution because we would open the possibility of userspace-generated req_id colliding with kernel ones. So this patch instead takes another route which is to artificially keep user req_id while keeping the xenbus logic as is. We do that by saving the original req_id before xs_send(), use the private kernel counter as req_id and then once reply comes and was validated, we restore back the original req_id.

In many cases, page tables can be accessed concurrently by either another CPU (due to things like fast gup) or by the hardware page table walker itself, which may set access/dirty bits. In such cases, it is important to use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE when accessing page table entries so that entries cannot be torn, merged or subject to apparent loss of coherence due to compiler transformations. Whilst there are some scenarios where this cannot happen (e.g. pinned kernel mappings for the linear region), the overhead of using READ_ONCE /WRITE_ONCE everywhere is minimal and makes the code an awful lot easier to reason about. This patch consistently uses these macros in the arch code, as well as explicitly namespacing pointers to page table entries from the entries themselves by using adopting a 'p' suffix for the former (as is sometimes used elsewhere in the kernel source).
