      docs: arm64: Add layout and 52-bit info to memory document · d2c68de1
      Steve Capper authored 
      As the kernel no longer prints out the memory layout on boot, this patch
adds this information back to the memory document.

Also, as the 52-bit support introduces some subtle changes to the arm64
memory, the rationale behind these changes are also added to the memory
document.

      arm64: mm: Remove vabits_user · 2c624fe6
      Steve Capper authored 
      Previous patches have enabled 52-bit kernel + user VAs and there is no
longer any scenario where user VA != kernel VA size.

This patch removes the, now redundant, vabits_user variable and replaces
usage with vabits_actual where appropriate.

      arm64: mm: Introduce 52-bit Kernel VAs · b6d00d47
      Steve Capper authored 
      Most of the machinery is now in place to enable 52-bit kernel VAs that
are detectable at boot time.

This patch adds a Kconfig option for 52-bit user and kernel addresses
and plumbs in the requisite CONFIG_ macros as well as sets TCR.T1SZ,
physvirt_offset and vmemmap at early boot.

To simplify things this patch also removes the 52-bit user/48-bit kernel
kconfig option.

      arm64: mm: Modify calculation of VMEMMAP_SIZE · ce3aaed8
      Steve Capper authored 
      In a later patch we will need to have a slightly larger VMEMMAP region
to accommodate boot time selection between 48/52-bit kernel VAs.

This patch modifies the formula for computing VMEMMAP_SIZE to depend
explicitly on the PAGE_OFFSET and start of kernel addressable memory.
(This allows for a slightly larger direct linear map in future).

      arm64: mm: Separate out vmemmap · c8b6d2cc
      Steve Capper authored 
      vmemmap is a preprocessor definition that depends on a variable,
memstart_addr. In a later patch we will need to expand the size of
the VMEMMAP region and optionally modify vmemmap depending upon
whether or not hardware support is available for 52-bit virtual
addresses.

This patch changes vmemmap to be a variable. As the old definition
depended on a variable load, this should not affect performance
noticeably.

      arm64: mm: Logic to make offset_ttbr1 conditional · c812026c
      Steve Capper authored 
      When running with a 52-bit userspace VA and a 48-bit kernel VA we offset
ttbr1_el1 to allow the kernel pagetables with a 52-bit PTRS_PER_PGD to
be used for both userspace and kernel.

Moving on to a 52-bit kernel VA we no longer require this offset to
ttbr1_el1 should we be running on a system with HW support for 52-bit
VAs.

This patch introduces conditional logic to offset_ttbr1 to query
SYS_ID_AA64MMFR2_EL1 whenever 52-bit VAs are selected. If there is HW
support for 52-bit VAs then the ttbr1 offset is skipped.

We choose to read a system register rather than vabits_actual because
offset_ttbr1 can be called in places where the kernel data is not
actually mapped.

Calls to offset_ttbr1 appear to be made from rarely called code paths so
this extra logic is not expected to adversely affect performance.

      arm64: mm: Introduce vabits_actual · 5383cc6e
      Steve Capper authored 
      In order to support 52-bit kernel addresses detectable at boot time, one
needs to know the actual VA_BITS detected. A new variable vabits_actual
is introduced in this commit and employed for the KVM hypervisor layout,
KASAN, fault handling and phys-to/from-virt translation where there
would normally be compile time constants.

In order to maintain performance in phys_to_virt, another variable
physvirt_offset is introduced.

      arm64: mm: Introduce VA_BITS_MIN · 90ec95cd
      Steve Capper authored 
      In order to support 52-bit kernel addresses detectable at boot time, the
kernel needs to know the most conservative VA_BITS possible should it
need to fall back to this quantity due to lack of hardware support.

A new compile time constant VA_BITS_MIN is introduced in this patch and
it is employed in the KASAN end address, KASLR, and EFI stub.

For Arm, if 52-bit VA support is unavailable the fallback is to 48-bits.

In other words: VA_BITS_MIN = min (48, VA_BITS)

      arm64: dump: De-constify VA_START and KASAN_SHADOW_START · 99426e5e
      Steve Capper authored 
      The kernel page table dumper assumes that the placement of VA regions is
constant and determined at compile time. As we are about to introduce
variable VA logic, we need to be able to determine certain regions at
boot time.

Specifically the VA_START and KASAN_SHADOW_START will depend on whether
or not the system is booted with 52-bit kernel VAs.

This patch adds logic to the kernel page table dumper s.t. these regions
can be computed at boot time.

      arm64: kasan: Switch to using KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET · 6bd1d0be
      Steve Capper authored 
      KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET is a constant that is supplied to gcc as a command
line argument and affects the codegen of the inline address sanetiser.

Essentially, for an example memory access:
    *ptr1 = val;
The compiler will insert logic similar to the below:
    shadowValue = *(ptr1 >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT + KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET)
    if (somethingWrong(shadowValue))
        flagAnError();

This code sequence is inserted into many places, thus
KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET is essentially baked into many places in the kernel
text.

If we want to run a single kernel binary with multiple address spaces,
then we need to do this with KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET fixed.

Thankfully, due to the way the KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET is used to provide
shadow addresses we know that the end of the shadow region is constant
w.r.t. VA space size:
    KASAN_SHADOW_END = ~0 >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT + KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET

This means that if we increase the size of the VA space, the start of
the KASAN region expands into lower addresses whilst the end of the
KASAN region is fixed.

Currently the arm64 code computes KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET at build time via
build scripts with the VA size used as a parameter. (There are build
time checks in the C code too to ensure that expected values are being
derived). It is sufficient, and indeed is a simplification, to remove
the build scripts (and build time checks) entirely and instead provide
KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET values.

This patch removes the logic to compute the KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET in the
arm64 Makefile, and instead we adopt the approach used by x86 to supply
offset values in kConfig. To help debug/develop future VA space changes,
the Makefile logic has been preserved in a script file in the arm64
Documentation folder.

      arm64: mm: Flip kernel VA space · 14c127c9
      Steve Capper authored 
      In order to allow for a KASAN shadow that changes size at boot time, one
must fix the KASAN_SHADOW_END for both 48 & 52-bit VAs and "grow" the
start address. Also, it is highly desirable to maintain the same
function addresses in the kernel .text between VA sizes. Both of these
requirements necessitate us to flip the kernel address space halves s.t.
the direct linear map occupies the lower addresses.

This patch puts the direct linear map in the lower addresses of the
kernel VA range and everything else in the higher ranges.

We need to adjust:
 *) KASAN shadow region placement logic,
 *) KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET computation logic,
 *) virt_to_phys, phys_to_virt checks,
 *) page table dumper.

These are all small changes, that need to take place atomically, so they
are bundled into this commit.

As part of the re-arrangement, a guard region of 2MB (to preserve
alignment for fixed map) is added after the vmemmap. Otherwise the
vmemmap could intersect with IS_ERR pointers.

      arm64: mm: Remove bit-masking optimisations for PAGE_OFFSET and VMEMMAP_START · 9cb1c5dd
      Steve Capper authored 
      Currently there are assumptions about the alignment of VMEMMAP_START
and PAGE_OFFSET that won't be valid after this series is applied.

These assumptions are in the form of bitwise operators being used
instead of addition and subtraction when calculating addresses.

This patch replaces these bitwise operators with addition/subtraction.
