A kprobe can be hit while another kprobe is in KPROBE_HIT_SS state. This
can happen when tracing or perf code runs from the debug exception path
while the first kprobe is preparing or executing its out-of-line
single-step instruction.
Currently arm64 treats a kprobe hit in KPROBE_HIT_SS as unrecoverable,
the same as a hit in KPROBE_REENTER. This is too strict. A hit in
KPROBE_HIT_SS is still a one-level reentry and can be handled by saving
the current kprobe state and setting up single-step for the new probe,
just like reentry from KPROBE_HIT_ACTIVE or KPROBE_HIT_SSDONE.
The truly unrecoverable case is hitting another kprobe while already in
KPROBE_REENTER, because the reentry save area has already been consumed.
Move KPROBE_HIT_SS to the recoverable reentry cases and leave
KPROBE_REENTER as the unrecoverable nested reentry case.
This change also requires saving saved_irqflag in struct prev_kprobe.
When a nested kprobe calls kprobes_save_local_irqflag(), it overwrites
kcb->saved_irqflag with the currently masked DAIF value, losing the
outer kprobe's original DAIF state. Without this fix, when the outer
kprobe's single-step finishes, kprobes_restore_local_irqflag() applies
the wrong DAIF mask and leaves interrupts permanently disabled.
Extend struct prev_kprobe with a saved_irqflag field and save/restore it
alongside kp and status. This ensures the outer kprobe's original
interrupt state is preserved across reentry.
This mirrors the x86 fix in commit 6a5022a56a
("kprobes/x86: Allow to handle reentered kprobe on single-stepping").

kprobe_fault_handler() currently treats any page fault taken while in
KPROBE_HIT_SS or KPROBE_REENTER state as a kprobe single-step fault. This
assumption does not hold: perf or tracing code may run from the debug
exception path during the single-step window and take its own page fault.
When the fault is handled as a kprobe fault, the PC is rewritten to the
probe address, corrupting the exception recovery context for the real
fault. A typical reproducer is running perf with preemptirq tracepoints
and dwarf callchains while a kprobe is installed on a frequently
executed function.
Fix this in two layers:
1. At function entry, bail out immediately for simulated kprobes
(ainsn.xol_insn == NULL), since they have no XOL slot and any fault
taken during their execution cannot be a single-step fault.
2. For kprobes with an XOL slot, only handle the fault when the
faulting PC matches the XOL instruction address. Faults from any
other PC are left to the normal page fault handler.
This follows the same principle as the x86 fix in commit 6381c24cd6
("kprobes/x86: Fix page-fault handling logic").

This reverts commit e057b94772.
Sashiko points out that updating 'orig_x0' after secure_computing()
has returned is too late to handle the case where a seccomp filter is
re-evaluated after initially returning SECCOMP_RET_TRACE. This means
that a tracer can manipulate the first argument of the syscall behind
seccomp's back.
For now, revert the initial fix and we'll have another crack at it soon.
Since the incorrect fix was cc'd to stable, do the same here with an
appropriate fixes tag.

When seccomp support was originally added to arm64 in a1ae65b219
("arm64: add seccomp support"), seccomp was erroneously called _before_
the ptrace syscall-enter-stop and therefore the tracer could trivially
manipulate the syscall register state after the seccomp check had
passed. This was subsequently fixed in a5cd110cb8 ("arm64/ptrace: run
seccomp after ptrace") by moving the seccomp check after the tracer has
run. Unfortunately, a decade later, that fix has been reported to be
incomplete.
On arm64, both the first argument to a syscall and its eventual return
value are allocated to register x0. In order to facilitate syscall
restarting and querying of syscall arguments on the syscall exit path,
the original value of x0 is stashed in 'struct pt_regs::orig_x0' early
during the syscall entry path and is returned for the first argument by
syscall_get_arguments(). Unlike 32-bit Arm, this stashed value is not
directly exposed via ptrace() and so changes to register x0 made by the
tracer on a syscall-enter-stop are not reflected in 'orig_x0'. This
means that seccomp, syscall tracepoints and audit can observe a stale
value for the register compared to the argument that will be observed by
the actual syscall.
Re-sync 'orig_x0' from x0 on the syscall entry path following a
potential ptrace stop (i.e. PTRACE_EVENTMSG_SYSCALL_ENTRY or
SECCOMP_RET_TRACE). This behaviour is limited to native tasks (because
compat tasks expose 'orig_r0' to ptrace) where the syscall is not being
skipped (because x0 is updated to hold the return value of -ENOSYS in
that case).

The C1-Pro SME DVMSync workaround currently samples mm_cpumask() from
arch_tlbbatch_add_pending(). It requires a DSB after every batched TLBI
so that the mask read is ordered after the hardware DVMSync, defeating
much of the reclaim batching benefit.
Introduce the sme_active_cpus mask tracking which CPUs run in user-space
with SME enabled and use it for batch flushing instead of accumulating
the mm_cpumask() of the unmapped pages.

On arm64, when booting with `maxcpus` greater than the number of present
CPUs (e.g., QEMU -smp cpus=4,maxcpus=8), some CPUs are marked as 'present'
but have not yet been registered via register_cpu(). Consequently,
the per-cpu device objects for these CPUs are not yet initialized.
In cpuhp_smt_enable(), the code iterates over all present CPUs. Calling
_cpu_up() for these unregistered CPUs eventually leads to
sysfs_create_group() being called with a NULL kobject (or a kobject
without a directory), triggering the following warning in
fs/sysfs/group.c:
WARNING: fs/sysfs/group.c:137 at internal_create_group+0x41c/0x4bc, CPU#2: sh/181
[...]
Call trace:
internal_create_group+0x41c/0x4bc (P)

cpuhp_invoke_callback+0x104/0x20c
__cpuhp_invoke_callback_range+0x94/0x11c
_cpu_up+0x200/0x37c
When booting with ACPI, arm64 smp_prepare_cpus() currently sets all
enumerated CPUs as "present" regardless of their status in the MADT. This
causes issues with SMT hotplug control. For instance, with QEMU's
"-smp 4,maxcpus=8" configuration, the MADT GICC entries are populated as
follows:
1. The first four CPUs: `Enabled` set but `Online Capable` not set.
2. The remaining four CPUs: `Online Capable` set but `Enabled` not set
to support potential hot-plugging.
Fix this by:
1. When booting with ACPI, checking the ACPI_MADT_ENABLED flag in the GICC
entry before calling set_cpu_present() during SMP initialization.
2. Properly managing the present mask in acpi_map_cpu() and
acpi_unmap_cpu() to support actual CPU hotplug events, This aligns with
other architectures like x86 and LoongArch.
3. Update the arm64 CPU hotplug documentation to no longer state that all
online-capable vCPUs are marked as present by the kernel at boot time.
This ensures that only physically available or explicitly enabled CPUs
are in the present mask, keeping the SMT control logic consistent with
the actual hardware state.

Sashiko review pointed out the following issue[1].
Commit eba4675008 ("arm64: arch_register_cpu() variant to check if
an ACPI handle is now available.") introduced architectural safety
blocks inside arch_unregister_cpu(). If a hot-unplug operation is
determined to be a physical hardware removal (where _STA evaluates to
!ACPI_STA_DEVICE_PRESENT), or if firmware evaluation fails, it aborts
the unregistration transaction early to protect unreadied arm64
infrastructure.
However, returning early from arch_unregister_cpu() causes a catastrophic
state tearing because the generic ACPI layer (acpi_processor_post_eject())
unconditionally continues its cleanup flow. This leaves the stale sysfs
device leaked in the memory, deadlocking any subsequent hot-add attempts
on the same CPU.
Fix it by simplifying arch_unregister_cpu() to always proceed with
the unregistration, as a pr_err_once() warning is sufficient to make
it more visible for currently not supported physical CPU removal.
Also remove the redundant NULL check on acpi_handle as it cannot be
NULL when calling arch_unregister_cpu().

arm64: mm: Defer read-only remap of data/bss linear alias
arm64/hw_breakpoint: reject unaligned watchpoints that would truncate BAS
arm64: static_call: include asm/insns.h
hw_breakpoint_arch_parse() positions the BAS bit pattern in
hw->ctrl.len with
offset = hw->address & alignment_mask; /* 0..7 */
hw->ctrl.len <<= offset;
ctrl.len is an 8-bit bitfield (struct arch_hw_breakpoint_ctrl::len is
u32 :8), so the shift silently drops any bits past bit 7. For
non-compat AArch64 watchpoints the offset is unbounded relative to
ctrl.len: a perf_event_open(PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT) caller asking for
HW_BREAKPOINT_W with bp_addr=page+1 and bp_len=HW_BREAKPOINT_LEN_8
ends up with 0xff << 1 = 0x1fe, stored as 0xfe. The kernel programs
WCR.BAS=0xfe and the hardware watches bytes [1..7] instead of the
requested [1..8] -- the eighth byte is silently dropped. The
syscall still returns success, leaving userspace to discover the
gap by empirical probing.
The same class affects HW_BREAKPOINT_LEN_{2,4} when offset pushes the
high BAS bit past bit 7 (e.g. LEN_4 with offset=5 yields 0xe0
instead of 0x1e0). No memory-safety impact -- the value is masked
into 8 bits before encoding -- but debuggers and perf users observe
missed events on bytes they thought they were watching.
The AArch32 branch immediately above already rejects unrepresentable
(offset, len) combinations via an explicit switch. Mirror that for
the non-compat branch by checking that the shifted pattern fits in
the BAS field, returning -EINVAL when it does not.
GDB and similar debuggers are unaffected by the stricter check.
aarch64_linux_set_debug_regs() already treats EINVAL on
NT_ARM_HW_WATCH as a downgrade signal: it clears
kernel_supports_any_contiguous_range, calls aarch64_downgrade_regs()
to round the BAS up to a legacy 0x01/03/0f/ff mask with an aligned
base, and retries -- the same fallback path that PR-20207 introduced.
The new -EINVAL is therefore reachable only from a raw
perf_event_open() that pairs an unaligned base with an oversized
bp_len, which is precisely the bug.
Reproducer:
struct perf_event_attr a = {
.type = PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT, .size = sizeof(a),
.bp_type = HW_BREAKPOINT_W,
.bp_addr = (uintptr_t)(buf + 1),
.bp_len = HW_BREAKPOINT_LEN_8,
.exclude_kernel = 1, .exclude_hv = 1,
};
int fd = perf_event_open(&a, 0, -1, -1, 0);
/* before this fix: succeeds, watches 7 bytes (buf+1..buf+7) */
/* after this fix: fails with EINVAL */

"arm64:
This is a bit of an odd merge window on the KVM/arm64 front. There
is absolutely no new feature in the pull request. It is purely
fixes, because it is simply becoming too hard to review new stuff
when so many AI-fuelled fixes hit the list.
- Significant cleanup of the vgic-v5 PPI support which was merged in
7.1. This makes the code more maintainable, and squashes a couple
of bugs in the meantime
- Set of fixes for the handling of the MMU in an NV context,
particularly VNCR-triggered faults. S1POE support is fixed as well
- Large set of pKVM fixes, mostly addressing recurring issues around
hypervisor tracking of donated pages in obscure cases where the
donation could fail and leave things in a bizarre state
- Fixes for the so-called "lazy vgic init", which resulted in
sleeping operations in non-preemptible sections. This turned out to
be far more invasive than initially expected..
- Reduce the overhead of L1/L2 context switch by not touching the FP
registers
- Fix the way non-implemented page sizes are dealt with when a guest
insist on using them for S2 translation
- The usual set of low-impact fixes and cleanups all over the map
Loongarch:
- On a request for lazy FPU load, load all FPU state that the VM
supports instead of enabling only the part (FPU, LSX or LASX) that
caused the FPU load request
- Some enhancements about interrupt injection
- Some bug fixes and other small changes
RISC-V:
- Batch G-stage TLB flushes for GPA range based page table updates
- Convert HGEI line management to fully per-HART
- Fix missing CSR dirty marking when FWFT state updated via ONE_REG
- Fix stale FWFT feature exposure to Guest/VM
- Speed up dirty logging write faults using MMU rwlock and atomic PTE
updates using cmpxchg() for permission-only changes
- Use flexible array for APLIC IRQ state
- Use kvm_slot_dirty_track_enabled() for logging enable check on a
memslot
- Avoid skipping valid pages in kvm_riscv_gstage_wp_range()
- Avoid skipping valid pages in kvm_riscv_gstage_unmap_range()
- Use endian-specific __lelong for NACL shared memory
S390:
- KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY support
- Support for 2G hugepages
- Support for the ASTFLEIE 2 facility
- Support for fast inject using kvm_arch_set_irq_inatomic
- Fix potential leak of uninitialized bytes
- A few more misc gmap fixes
x86:
- Generic support for the more granular permissions allowed by EPT,
namely "read" (which was previously usurping the U bit) and
separate execution bits for kernel and userspace
- Do not assume that all page tables start with U=1/W=1/NX=0 at the
root, as AMD GMET needs to have U=0 at the root
- Introduce common assembly macros for use within Intel and AMD
vendor-specific vmentry code. This touches the SPEC_CTRL handling,
which is now entirely done in assembly for Intel (by reusing the
AMD code that already existed), and register save/restore which
uses some macro magic to compute the offsets in the struct. Both of
these are preparatory changes for upcoming APX support
- Clean up KVM's register tracking and storage, primarily to prepare
for APX support, which expands the maximum number of GPRs from 16
to 32
- Keep a single copy of the PDPTRs rather than two, since
architecturally there is just one
- Handle EXIT_FASTPATH_EXIT_USERSPACE in vendor code to ensure vendor
code gets a chance to handle things like reaping the PML buffer
- Update KVM's view of PV async enabling if and only if the MSR write
fully succeeds
- Fix a variety of issues where the emulator doesn't honor
guest-debug state, and clean up related code along the way
- Synthesize EPT Violation and #NPF "error code" bits when injecting
faults into L1 that didn't originate in hardware (in which case the
VMCS/VMCB doesn't hold relevant information)
- Add support for virtualizing (well, emulating) AMD's flavor of
CPL>0 CPUID faulting
- Clean up the GPR APIs so that KVM's use of "raw" is consistent, and
fix a variety of minor bugs along the way
- Fix an OOB memory access due to not checking the VP ID when
handling a Hyper-V PV TLB flush for L2
- Fix a bug in the mediated PMU's handling of fixed counters that
allowed the guest to bypass the PMU event filter
- Allow userspace to return EAGAIN when handling SNP and TDX
hypercalls, so the KVM can forward a "retry" status code to the
guest, and reserve all unused error codes for future usage
- Overhaul the TDP MMU => S-EPT code to move as much S-EPT specific
logic as possible into the TDX code, and to funnel (almost) all
S-EPT updates into a single chokepoint. The motivation is largely
to prepare for upcoming Dynamic PAMT support, but the cleanups are
nice to have on their own
- Plug a hole in shadow page table handling, where KVM fails to
recursively zap nested EPT/NPT shadow page tables when the nested
hypervisor tears down its own EPT/NPT page tables from the bottom
up
x86 (Intel):
- Support for nested MBEC (Mode-Based Execute Control), see above in
the generic section; also run with MBEC enabled even for non-nested
mode
- Use the kernel's "enum pg_level" in the TDX APIs instead of the
TDX-Module's level definitions (which are 0-based)
- Rework the TDX memory APIs to not require/assume that guest memory
is backed by "struct page" (in prepartion for guest_memfd hugepage
support)
- Fix a largely benign bug where KVM TDX would incorrectly state it
could emulate several x2APIC MSRs
- Use the "safe" WRMSR API when proxying LBR MSR writes as the
to-be-written value is guest controlled and completely unvalidated
x86 (AMD):
- Support for nested GMET (Guest Mode Execution Trap), see above in
the generic section; also run with GMET enabled even for non-nested
mode
- Fixes and minor cleanups to GHCB handling, on top of the earlier
work already merged into 7.1-rc
- Ensure KVM's copy of CR0 and CR3 are up-to-date prior to invoking
fastpath handlers
- Add support for virtualizing gPAT (KVM previously just used L1's
PAT when running L2)
- Fix goofs where KVM mishandles side effects (e.g. single-step and
PMC updates) when emulating VMRUN
- Fix a variety of bugs in AVIC's handling of x2APIC MSR
interception, most notably where KVM didn't disable interception of
IRR, ISR, and TMR regs
- Add support for virtualizing Host-Only/Guest-Only bits in the
mediated PMU
- Don't advertise support for unusable VM types, and account for VM
types that are disabled by firmware, e.g. to mitigate security
vulnerabilities
- Rewrite the SEV {en,de}crypt debug ioctls as they were riddle with
bugs and unnecessarily complicated, and add comprehensive tests
- Clean up and deduplicate the SEV page pinning code
- Fix minor goofs related to writing back CPUID information after
firmware rejects a CPUID page for an SNP vCPU
Generic:
- Rename invalidate_begin() to invalidate_start() throughout KVM to
follow the kernel's nomenclature, e.g. for mmu_notifiers
- Use guard() to cleanup up various KVM+VFIO flows
- Minor cleanups
guest_memfd:
- Return -EEXIST instead of -EINVAL if userspace attempts to bind a
gmem range to multiple memslots, and fix the test that was supposed
to ensure KVM returns -EEXIST
- Treat memslot binding offsets and sizes as unsigned values to fix a
bug where KVM interprets a large "offset + size" as a negative
value and allows a nonsensical offset
- Use the inode number instead of the page offset for the NUMA
interleaving index to fix a bug where the effective index would
jump by two for consecutive pages (the caller also adds in the page
offset)
Selftests:
- Randomize the dirty log test's delay when reaping the bitmap on the
first pass, as always waiting only 1ms hid a KVM RISC-V bug as the
test reaped the bitmap before KVM could build up enough state to
hit the bug
- A pile of one-off fixes and cleanups"

but most of the low hanging fruit was left on the table. This rework
addresses the major time consuming issues:
- Printing a long series of zeros one by one via a format string
instead of counting subsequent zeros and emitting a string
constant.
- Simplify and cache the conditions whether interrupts should be
printed
- Use a proper iteration over the interrupt descriptor xarray
instead of walking and testing one by one.
- Provide helper functions for the architecture code to emit the
architecture specific counters
- Convert the counter structure in x86 to an array, which
simplifies the output and add mechanisms to suppress unused
architecture interrupts, which just occupy space for nothing.
Adopt the new core mechanisms.
This adjusts the gdb scripts related to interrupt counter statistics
to work with the new mechanisms.
- Prevent a string overflow in the /proc/irq/$N/ directory name
creation code.

"Deferred probe:
- Fix race where deferred probe timeout work could be permanently
canceled by using mod_delayed_work()
- Fix missing jiffies conversion in deferred_probe_extend_timeout()
- Guard timeout extension with delayed_work_pending() to prevent

- Use system_percpu_wq instead of the deprecated system_wq
- Update deferred_probe_timeout documentation
device:
- Replace direct struct device bitfield access (can_match, dma_iommu,
dma_skip_sync, dma_ops_bypass, state_synced, dma_coherent,
of_node_reused, offline, offline_disabled) with flag-based
accessors using bit operations
- Reject devices with unregistered buses
- Delete unused DEVICE_ATTR_PREALLOC()
- Add low-level device attribute macros with const show/store
callbacks, allowing device attributes to reside in read-only memory
- Move core device attributes to read-only memory
- Constify group array pointers in driver_add_groups() /

device property:
- Fix fwnode reference leak in fwnode_graph_get_endpoint_by_id()
- Initialize all fields of fwnode_handle in fwnode_init()
- Provide swnode_get()/swnode_put() wrappers around kobject_get/put()
- Allow passing struct software_node_ref_args pointers directly to
PROPERTY_ENTRY_REF()
driver_override:
- Migrate amba, cdx, vmbus, and rpmsg to the generic driver_override
infrastructure, fixing a UAF from unsynchronized access to
driver_override in bus match() callbacks
- Remove the now-unused driver_set_override()
firmware loader:
- Fix recursive lock deadlock in device_cache_fw_images() when async
work falls back to synchronous execution
- Fix device reference leak in firmware_upload_register()
platform:
- Pass KBUILD_MODNAME through the platform driver registration macro
to create module symlinks in sysfs for built-in drivers; move
module_kset initialization to a pure_initcall and tegra cbb
registration to core_initcall to ensure correct ordering
- Pass THIS_MODULE implicitly through a coresight_init_driver() macro
sysfs:
- Upgrade OOB write detection in sysfs_kf_seq_show() from printk to
WARN
- Add return value clamping to sysfs_kf_read()
Rust:
- ACPI:
Fix missing match data for PRP0001 by exporting
acpi_of_match_device()
- Auxiliary:
Replace drvdata() with dedicated registration data on
auxiliary_device. drvdata() exposed the driver's bus device private
data beyond the driver's own scope, creating ordering constraints
and forcing the data to outlive all registrations that access it.
Registration data is instead scoped structurally to the
Registration object, making lifecycle ordering enforced by
construction rather than convention.
- Rust-native device driver lifetimes (HRT):
Allow Rust device drivers to carry a lifetime parameter on their
bus device private data, tied to the device binding scope -- the
interval during which a bus device is bound to a driver. Device
resources like pci::Bar<'a> and IoMem<'a> can be stored directly in
the driver's bus device private data with a lifetime bounded by the
binding scope, so the compiler enforces at build time that they do
not outlive the binding. This removes Devres indirection from every
access site and eliminates try_access() failure paths in
destructors.
Bus driver traits use a Generic Associated Type (GAT) Data<'bound>
to introduce the lifetime on the private data, rather than
parameterizing the Driver trait itself. Auxiliary registration
data, where the lifetime is not introduced by a trait callback but
must be threaded through Registration, uses the ForLt trait (a
type-level abstraction for types generic over a lifetime).
Misc:
- Fix DT overlayed devices not probing by reverting the broken
treewide overlay fix and re-running fw_devlink consumer pickup when
an overlay is applied to a bound device
- Use root_device_register() for faux bus root device; add sanity
check for failed bus init
- Fix dev_has_sync_state() data race with READ_ONCE() and move it to
base.h
- Avoid spurious device_links warning when removing a device while
its supplier is unbinding
- Switch ISA bus to dynamic root device
- Fix suspicious RCU usage in kernfs_put()
- Remove devcoredump exit callback
- Constify devfreq_event_class"

NVIDIA Olympus cores are affected by the TLBI completion issue tracked as
CVE-2025-10263. The existing ARM64_ERRATUM_4118414 handling already uses
ARM64_WORKAROUND_REPEAT_TLBI to issue an additional broadcast TLBI;DSB
sequence and ensure affected memory write effects are globally observed.
Add MIDR_NVIDIA_OLYMPUS to the repeat-TLBI match list so the same
mitigation is enabled on affected Olympus systems. Also document the
NVIDIA Olympus erratum in the arm64 silicon errata table and list it in

A number of CPUs developed by Arm suffer from errata whereby a broadcast
TLBI;DSB sequence may complete before the global observation of writes
which are translated by an affected TLB entry.
These errata ONLY affect the completion of memory accesses which have
been translated by an invalidated TLB entry, and these errata DO NOT
affect the actual invalidation of TLB entries. TLB entries are removed
correctly.
This issue has been assigned CVE ID CVE-2025-10263.
To mitigate this issue, Arm recommends that software follows any
affected TLBI;DSB sequence with an additional TLBI;DSB, which will
ensure that all memory write effects affected by the first TLBI have
been globally observed. The additional TLBI can use any operation that
is broadcast to affected CPUs, and the additional DSB can use any option
that is sufficient to complete the additional TLBI.
The ARM64_WORKAROUND_REPEAT_TLBI workaround is sufficient to mitigate
the issue. Enable this workaround for affected CPUs, and update the
silicon errata documentation accordingly.
Note that due to the manner in which Arm develops IP and tracks errata,
some CPUs share a common erratum number.

Rename the .pgdir.bss section to .bss..pgtbl so that the compiler will
notice the leading ".bss" and mark it as NOBITS by default (rather than
PROGBITS, which would take up space in Image binary, forcing all of the
preceding BSS to be emitted into the image as well). This supersedes the
NOLOAD linker directive, which achieves the same thing, and can be
therefore be dropped.
Also, rename .pgdir to .pgtbl to be more generic, as page tables of

Currently the SVE register save/restore sequences are written in
out-of-line assembly routines. While this works, it's somewhat painful:
* For KVM to use the sequences, portions of the logic will need to be
duplicated in KVM hyp code. While the common logic can be shared in
assembly macros, this is very likely to lead to unnecessary divergence
and be a maintenance burden.
* For historical reasons, the assembly macros take some register
arguments as numerical indices (e.g. "sme_save_za 0, x2, 12" uses x0, x1, and
x12), which is simply confusing.
* Address generation and control flow are far clearer in C than in
assembly.
* The assembly sequences can't be instrumented, and so it's harder than
necessary to catch memory safety issues.
To handle the above, move the SME register save/restore sequences
to inline assembly.
Neither GCC nor LLVM instrument memory arguments to inline assembly, so
explicit instrumentation is added in the same manner as other assembly

Currently sve_flush_live() is written in out-of-line assembly. It would
be nice if we could move it inline such that control flow can be written
more clearly in C, and to permit the removal of otherwise unused
assembly macros.
The 'flush_ffr' argument is redundant as sve_flush_live() is always
called from non-streaming mode, and all callers pass 'true'. Remove the
argument and make it a requirement that the function is called from
non-streaming mode.
The 'vq_minus_1' argument is unnecessary, as sve_flush_live() can read
the live VL directly using the RDVL instruction (wrapped by the
sve_get_vl() helper function).
Move the function to C, with the simplifications above.

As the SME state size can vary at runtime, we don't have a concrete type
for the in-memory SME state, and pass this around using a pointer to
void.
Using pointer to void means that it's very easy to introduce errors that
cannot be caught by the compiler (e.g. as 'void **' can be assigned to
'void *').
Improve this by adding an opaque 'struct arm64_sme_state', and
consistently passing a pointer to this.

As the SVE state size can vary at runtime, we don't have a concrete type
for the in-memory SVE state, and pass this around using a pointer to
void. The functions which save/restore the SVE state have a very unusual
calling convention, expecting a pointer to the FFR *in the middle of*
the in-memory SVE state, which is also passed as a pointer to void.
Passing a pointer to the FFR also requires that callers find the live VL
and perform some arithmetic, which callers implement differently.
Using pointer to void means that it's very easy to introduce errors that
cannot be caught by the compiler (e.g. as 'void **' can be assigned to
'void *'). In general this is unnecessarily confusing and fragile.
Improve this by adding an opaque 'struct arm64_sve_state', and
consistently passing a pointer to this, performing the necessary
offsetting *within* the save/restore functions.
For the moment, the offsetting is performed in a new '_sve_pffr'
assembly macro, using the ADDVL and ADDPL instructions. These add a
multiple of the live vector length and predicate length respectively.
The ADDVL immediate range cannot encode 32, so this is split into two
increments of 16.

* For historical reasons, the assembly macros take some register
arguments as numerical indices (e.g. "fpsimd_save x0, 8" uses x0 and
x8), which is simply confusing.
* For historical reasons, the SVE save/restore code and FPSIMD
save/restore code have distinct sequences for FPSR and FPCR. Ideally
this logic would be shared.
* The assembly sequences can't be instrumented, and so it's harder than
necessary to catch memory safety issues.
To handle the above, move the FPSIMD register save/restore sequences to
inline assembly, and share the FPSR+FPCR save/restore with SVE.
Neither GCC nor LLVM instrument memory arguments to inline assembly, so
explicit instrumentation is added in the same manner as other assembly
routines. This instrumentation is implicitly disabled by Kbuild for nVHE
hyp code.
I've used the SVE sequence for restoring FPCR, which uses an
unconditional write to FPCR, rather than the conditional write used by
the FPSIMD assembly sequence. I believe that in practice, this doesn't
matter to a real workload, and given it's possible for the mis-predicted
branch to cost more than the necessary micro-architectural
synchronization, I strongly suspect any performance impact is within the
noise.
Looking at the history, the FPSIMD assembly sequence was changed to use
a conditional write to FPCR since 2014 in commit:
5959e25729 ("arm64: fpsimd: avoid restoring fpcr if the contents haven't change")
... as described in the commit message, this was based on an expectation
of implementation style, and was not based on benchmarking.

Regardless of whether the vector registers are saved in FPSIMD or SVE
format, we store FPSR and FPCR in user_fpsimd_state::{fpsr,fpcr}.
For historical reasons, the functions which save/restore SVE context
take a pointer to user_fpsimd_state::fpsr, and use this to access both
user_fpsimd_state::fpsr and user_fpsimd_state::fpcr. This is
unnecessarily fragile.
Move the save/restore of FPSR and FPCR into separate helper functions
which take a pointer to user_fpsimd_state. I've used read_sysreg_s() and
write_sysreg_s() as contemporary versions of LLVM will refuse to
directly assemble accesses to FPCR or FPSR unless the "fp" arch
extension is enabled.
For the moment, fpsimd_save_state() and fpsimd_load_state() are left
as-is with their own logic to save/restore FPSR and FPCR. This will be
unified in subsequent patches.

Replace the out-of-line assembly functions with equivalent inline

The _sve_rdvl assembly macro is unused, and so it is removed. The

The sve_set_vq() and sme_set_vq() assembly functions (and the
sve_load_vq and sme_load_vq macros they use) are open-coded forms of
sysreg_clear_set*(). There's no need for these to be implemented
out-of-line in assembly, and the 'vq_minus_1' argument is unusual and
confusing.
Use sysreg_clear_set_s() directly, where the necessary 'vq - 1' encoding
is more obviously part of encoding the register value.
For now, sve_flush_live() is left with the unusual vq_minus_1 argument.
This will be addressed in subsequent patches.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

For historical reasons, do_sve_acc() is structurally different from
do_sme_acc(), and the logic to convert the task from FPSIMD to SVE is
out-of-line in sve_init_regs(). We only use sve_init_regs() within
do_sve_acc(), so it's not necessary for this to be a separate function.
Fold sve_init_regs() into do_sve_acc(), and simplify the associated
comments. This makes do_sve_acc() structurally similar to do_sme_acc(),
making it easier to see similarities and differences.

The sme_save_state() and sme_load_state() functions take a 32-bit int
argument that describes whether to save/restore ZT0. Their assembly
implementations consume the entire 64-bit register containing this
32-bit value, and will attempt to save/restore ZT0 if any bit of
that 64-bit register is non-zero.
Per the AAPCS64 parameter passing rules, the callee is responsible for
any necessary widening, and the upper 32-bits are permitted to contain
arbitrary values. If the upper 32 bits are non-zero, this could result
in an unexpected attempt to save/restore ZT0, and consequently could
lead to unexpected traps/undefs/faults.
In practice compilers are very unlikely to generate code where the upper
32-bits would be non-zero, but they are permitted to do so.
Fix this by only consuming the low 32 bits of the register, and update
comments accordingly.

HiSilicon HIP09 implements TLB entry matching behavior that deviates
from the ARM architecture specification when the CNP (Common not Private)
bit is set in TTBRx_ELx.
When TTBRx.CNP=1, TLB entries may be incorrectly shared between CPU
cores, leading to TLB conflicts and stale mappings. This affects
coherency and can result in incorrect translations.
Add the hardware erratum workaround (Hisilicon erratum 162100125) to
disable CNP on affected HIP09 cores.

These page tables are currently the only data objects in vmlinux that
are meant to be accessed via the kernel image's linear alias, and so
placing them together allows the remainder of the data/bss section to be

Currently, it is not necessary for __finalise_el2() to configure
TPIDR_EL2:
* The hyp stub code does not consume the value of TPIDR_EL2.
* On the boot cpu, TPIDR_EL1 is used for the percpu offset until the
ARM64_HAS_VIRT_HOST_EXTN cpucap is detected and boot alternatives
are patched. Before boot alternatives are patched,
cpu_copy_el2regs() will copy TPIDR_EL1 into TPIDR_EL2. It is not
necessary for __finalise_el2() to initialise TPIDR_EL2 before this.
* Secondary CPUs are brought up after boot alternatives have been
patched, and __secondary_switched() will initialize TPIDR_EL2 in
'init_cpu_task', after finalise_el2() calls __finalise_el2()
* KVM hyp code which may consume TPIDR_EL2 is brought up after all
secondaries have been booted, once TPIDR_El2 has been configured on
all CPUs.

Quite some architectures have four character wide acronyms for architecture
specific interrupts like IPI, NMI, etc.
The default precision of printing the Linux device interrupt numbers is
three, which causes quite some code to play games with adding or omitting
space after the acronym and the colon in order to keep the per CPU numbers
properly aligned.
Increase the default number precision to four in the core code and get rid
of the space games all over the place. At the same time align all
architecture specific descriptor texts left so that they show up in the
same column as the interrupt chip names, which makes the output more
uniform accross architectures. Fix up the GDB script to this new scheme as
well.

The dumpable flag captured at execve() is consulted by
__ptrace_may_access() and several /proc owner / visibility checks.
It lives on mm_struct today, which exit_mm() clears from the task
long before the task itself is reaped.
exec_state is anchored to the execve() that established the current
privilege domain. CLONE_VM siblings refcount-share the parent's
exec_state via copy_exec_state(); non-CLONE_VM clones allocate a
fresh exec_state inheriting the parent's dumpable mode and user_ns
reference via task_exec_state_copy(). execve() allocates a fresh
instance (via alloc_task_exec_state() in begin_new_exec()) and
installs it under task_lock + exec_update_lock with
task_exec_state_replace(). init_task uses a static instance.
The dumpable mode now lives on task->exec_state->dumpable.
task->mm->flags no longer carries dumpability; MMF_DUMPABLE_MASK is
removed, but MMF_DUMPABLE_BITS is reserved so MMF_DUMP_FILTER_* bit
positions remain stable for the /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter ABI. The
task->user_dumpable cache bit and its assignment in exit_mm() are
removed; readers go through get_dumpable(task) directly.
coredump_params gains a snapshot field cprm.dumpable, populated from
get_dumpable(current) at vfs_coredump() entry, replacing the previous
__get_dumpable(cprm->mm_flags) consumers in fs/coredump.c and
fs/pidfs.c.
The user namespace recorded at execve() is consulted by
__ptrace_may_access() and by /proc/PID/* owner derivation. Move the
captured user_ns onto task_exec_state, which stays attached to the task
past exit_mm() and across exit_files().
bprm grows a user_ns field staged in bprm_mm_init() with the caller's
user_ns, narrowed by would_dump() to the closest privileged ancestor,
and consumed by exec_mmap() via alloc_task_exec_state(bprm->user_ns).
free_bprm() releases the staging reference.
mm_struct loses ->user_ns entirely. Initializers in init-mm, efi_mm,
and the implicit one in mm_init()/dup_mm()/mm_alloc() are removed;
__mmdrop() drops the matching put_user_ns(). The kthread_use_mm()
WARN_ON_ONCE(!mm->user_ns) is no longer meaningful and goes too.
