      arm64: mm: Add trace_irqflags annotations to do_debug_exception() · 6afedcd2
      James Morse authored
      With CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING, CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP and CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS
      enabled, lockdep will compare current->hardirqs_enabled with the flags from
      local_irq_save().
      
      When a debug exception occurs, interrupts are disabled in entry.S, but
      lockdep isn't told, resulting in:
      DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(current->hardirqs_enabled)

      arm64: hw-breakpoint: Remove superfluous SMP function call · 4bc49274
      Anna-Maria Gleixner authored
      Since commit 1cf4f629 ("cpu/hotplug: Move online calls to
      hotplugged cpu") it is ensured that callbacks of CPU_ONLINE and
      CPU_DOWN_PREPARE are processed on the hotplugged CPU. Due to this SMP
      function calls are no longer required.
      
      Replace smp_call_function_single() with a direct call of
      hw_breakpoint_reset(). To keep the calling convention, interrupts are
      explicitly disabled around the call.

      arm64: simplify kernel segment mapping granularity · 97740051
      Ard Biesheuvel authored
      The mapping of the kernel consist of four segments, each of which is mapped
      with different permission attributes and/or lifetimes. To optimize the TLB
      and translation table footprint, we define various opaque constants in the
      linker script that resolve to different aligment values depending on the
      page size and whether CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA is set.
      
      Considering that
      - a 4 KB granule kernel benefits from a 64 KB segment alignment (due to
        the fact that it allows the use of the contiguous bit),
      - the minimum alignment of the .data segment is THREAD_SIZE already, not
        PAGE_SIZE (i.e., we already have padding between _data and the start of
        the .data payload in many cases),
      - 2 MB is a suitable alignment value on all granule sizes, either for
        mapping directly (level 2 on 4 KB), or via the contiguous bit (level 3 on
        16 KB and 64 KB),
      - anything beyond 2 MB exceeds the minimum alignment mandated by the boot
        protocol, and can only be mapped efficiently if the physical alignment
        happens to be the same,
      
      we can simplify this by standardizing on 64 KB (or 2 MB) explicitly, i.e.,
      regardless of granule size, all segments are aligned either to 64 KB, or to
      2 MB if CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA=y. This also means we can drop the Kconfig
      dependency of CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA on CONFIG_ARM64_4K_PAGES.

      arm64: cover the .head.text section in the .text segment mapping · 7eb90f2f
      Ard Biesheuvel authored
      Keeping .head.text out of the .text mapping buys us very little: its actual
      payload is only 4 KB, most of which is padding, but the page alignment may
      add up to 2 MB (in case of CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA=y) of additional
      padding to the uncompressed kernel Image.
      
      Also, on 4 KB granule kernels, the 4 KB misalignment of .text forces us to
      map the adjacent 56 KB of code without the PTE_CONT attribute, and since
      this region contains things like the vector table and the GIC interrupt
      handling entry point, this region is likely to benefit from the reduced TLB
      pressure that results from PTE_CONT mappings.
      
      So remove the alignment between the .head.text and .text sections, and use
      the [_text, _etext) rather than the [_stext, _etext) interval for mapping
      the .text segment.

      arm64: move early boot code to the .init segment · 546c8c44
      Ard Biesheuvel authored
      Apart from the arm64/linux and EFI header data structures, there is nothing
      in the .head.text section that must reside at the beginning of the Image.
      So let's move it to the .init section where it belongs.
      
      Note that this involves some minor tweaking of the EFI header, primarily
      because the address of 'stext' no longer coincides with the start of the
      .text section. It also requires a couple of relocated symbol references
      to be slightly rewritten or their definition moved to the linker script.

      arm64: use 'segment' rather than 'chunk' to describe mapped kernel regions · 2c09ec06

      Replace the poorly defined term chunk with segment, which is a term that is
      already used by the ELF spec to describe contiguous mappings with the same
      permission attributes of statically allocated ranges of an executable.

      arm64: mm: restrict virt_to_page() to the linear mapping · 9f287591
      Ard Biesheuvel authored
      Now that the vmemmap region has been redefined to cover the linear region
      rather than the entire physical address space, we no longer need to
      perform a virtual-to-physical translation in the implementaion of
      virt_to_page(). This restricts virt_to_page() translations to the linear
      region, so redefine virt_addr_valid() as well.

      arm64: mm: move vmemmap region right below the linear region · 3e1907d5
      Ard Biesheuvel authored
      This moves the vmemmap region right below PAGE_OFFSET, aka the start
      of the linear region, and redefines its size to be a power of two.
      Due to the placement of PAGE_OFFSET in the middle of the address space,
      whose size is a power of two as well, this guarantees that virt to
      page conversions and vice versa can be implemented efficiently, by
      masking and shifting rather than ordinary arithmetic.

      Before restricting virt_to_page() to the linear mapping, ensure that
      the text patching code does not use it to resolve references into the
      core kernel text, which is mapped in the vmalloc area.
