AFSR1_EL2.

Compute a synthetic ESR for these PMUv3 traps, giving the illusion of
something architectural to the rest of KVM.

KVM: arm64: Use a cpucap to determine if system supports FEAT_PMUv3

KVM is about to learn some new tricks to virtualize PMUv3 on IMPDEF
hardware. As part of that, we now need to differentiate host support
from guest support for PMUv3.

Add a cpucap to determine if an architectural PMUv3 is present to guard
host usage of PMUv3 controls.

KVM: arm64: Work around x1e's CNTVOFF_EL2 bogosity

It appears that on Qualcomm's x1e CPU, CNTVOFF_EL2 doesn't really
work, specially with HCR_EL2.E2H=1.

A non-zero offset results in a screaming virtual timer interrupt,
to the tune of a few 100k interrupts per second on a 4 vcpu VM.
This is also evidenced by this CPU's inability to correctly run
any of the timer selftests.

The only case this doesn't break is when this register is set to 0,
which breaks VM migration.

When HCR_EL2.E2H=0, the timer seems to behave normally, and does
not result in an interrupt storm.

As a workaround, use the fact that this CPU implements FEAT_ECV,
and trap all accesses to the virtual timer and counter, keeping
CNTVOFF_EL2 set to zero, and emulate accesses to CVAL/TVAL/CTL
and the counter itself, fixing up the timer to account for the
missing offset.

And if you think this is disgusting, you'd probably be right.

arm64: Add support for FEAT_HAFT

Armv8.9/v9.4 introduces the feature Hardware managed Access Flag
for Table descriptors (FEAT_HAFT). The feature is indicated by
ID_AA64MMFR1_EL1.HAFDBS == 0b0011 and can be enabled by
TCR2_EL1.HAFT so it has a dependency on FEAT_TCR2.

Adds the Kconfig for FEAT_HAFT and support detecting and enabling
the feature. The feature is enabled in __cpu_setup() before MMU on
just like HA. A CPU capability is added to notify the user of the
feature.

Add definition of P{G,4,U,M}D_TABLE_AF bit and set the AF bit
when creating the page table, which will save the hardware
from having to update them at runtime. This will be ignored if
FEAT_HAFT is not enabled.

The AF bit of table descriptors cannot be managed by the software
per spec, unlike the HA. So this should be used only if it's supported
system wide by system_supports_haft().

arm64: cpufeature: discover CPU support for MPAM

ARMv8.4 adds support for 'Memory Partitioning And Monitoring' (MPAM)
which describes an interface to cache and bandwidth controls wherever
they appear in the system.

Add support to detect MPAM. Like SVE, MPAM has an extra id register that
describes some more properties, including the virtualisation support,
which is optional. Detect this separately so we can detect
mismatched/insane systems, but still use MPAM on the host even if the
virtualisation support is missing.

MPAM needs enabling at the highest implemented exception level, otherwise
the register accesses trap. The 'enabled' flag is accessible to lower
exception levels, but its in a register that traps when MPAM isn't enabled.
The cpufeature 'matches' hook is extended to test this on one of the
CPUs, so that firmware can emulate MPAM as disabled if it is reserved
for use by secure world.

Secondary CPUs that appear late could trip cpufeature's 'lower safe'
behaviour after the MPAM properties have been advertised to user-space.
Add a verify call to ensure late secondaries match the existing CPUs.

(If you have a boot failure that bisects here its likely your CPUs
advertise MPAM in the id registers, but firmware failed to either enable
or MPAM, or emulate the trap as if it were disabled)

arm64: errata: Add workaround for Arm errata 3194386 and 3312417

Cortex-X4 and Neoverse-V3 suffer from errata whereby an MSR to the SSBS
special-purpose register does not affect subsequent speculative
instructions, permitting speculative store bypassing for a window of
time. This is described in their Software Developer Errata Notice (SDEN)
documents:

* Cortex-X4 SDEN v8.0, erratum 3194386:
https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-2432808/0800/

* Neoverse-V3 SDEN v6.0, erratum 3312417:
https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-2891958/0600/

To workaround these errata, it is necessary to place a speculation
barrier (SB) after MSR to the SSBS special-purpose register. This patch
adds the requisite SB after writes to SSBS within the kernel, and hides
the presence of SSBS from EL0 such that userspace software which cares
about SSBS will manipulate this via prctl(PR_GET_SPECULATION_CTRL, ...).

FEAT_FPMR defines a new EL0 accessible register FPMR use to configure the
FP8 related features added to the architecture at the same time. Detect
support for this register and context switch it for EL0 when present.

Due to the sharing of responsibility for saving floating point state
between the host kernel and KVM FP8 support is not yet implemented in KVM
and a stub similar to that used for SVCR is provided for FPMR in order to
avoid bisection issues. To make it easier to share host state with the
hypervisor we store FPMR as a hardened usercopy field in uw (along with
some padding).

arm64: mm: Handle LVA support as a CPU feature

Currently, we detect CPU support for 52-bit virtual addressing (LVA)
extremely early, before creating the kernel page tables or enabling the
MMU. We cannot override the feature this early, and so large virtual
addressing is always enabled on CPUs that implement support for it if
the software support for it was enabled at build time. It also means we
rely on non-trivial code in asm to deal with this feature.

Given that both the ID map and the TTBR1 mapping of the kernel image are
guaranteed to be 48-bit addressable, it is not actually necessary to
enable support this early, and instead, we can model it as a CPU
feature. That way, we can rely on code patching to get the correct
TCR.T1SZ values programmed on secondary boot and resume from suspend.

On the primary boot path, we simply enable the MMU with 48-bit virtual
addressing initially, and update TCR.T1SZ if LVA is supported from C
code, right before creating the kernel mapping. Given that TTBR1 still
points to reserved_pg_dir at this point, updating TCR.T1SZ should be
safe without the need for explicit TLB maintenance.

Since this gets rid of all accesses to the vabits_actual variable from
asm code that occurred before TCR.T1SZ had been programmed, we no longer
have a need for this variable, and we can replace it with a C expression
that produces the correct value directly, based on the value of TCR.T1SZ.

arm64: Get rid of ARM64_HAS_NO_HW_PREFETCH

Back in 2016, it was argued that implementations lacking a HW

In 2023, the one platform that presumably needed this hack is no
longer in active use (let alone maintained), and an quick
experiment shows dropping this hack only leads to a 0.4% drop
on a full kernel compilation (tested on a MT30-GS0 48 CPU system).

Given that this is pretty much in the noise department and that
it may give odd ideas to other implementers, drop the hack for
good.

Although FEAT_LPA2 presence is advertised separately for stage1 and

support or not support it. Therefore, we combine both into a single
capability, allowing us to simplify the implementation. KVM requires
support in both stages in order to use LPA2 since the same library is

arm64: Use a positive cpucap for FP/SIMD

Currently we have a negative cpucap which describes the *absence* of
FP/SIMD rather than *presence* of FP/SIMD. This largely works, but is
somewhat awkward relative to other cpucaps that describe the presence of
a feature, and it would be nicer to have a cpucap which describes the
presence of FP/SIMD:

* This will allow the cpucap to be treated as a standard
ARM64_CPUCAP_SYSTEM_FEATURE, which can be detected with the standard
has_cpuid_feature() function and ARM64_CPUID_FIELDS() description.

* This ensures that the cpucap will only transition from not-present to
present, reducing the risk of unintentional and/or unsafe usage of
FP/SIMD before cpucaps are finalized.

* This will allow using arm64_cpu_capabilities::cpu_enable() to enable
the use of FP/SIMD later, with FP/SIMD being disabled at boot time
otherwise. This will ensure that any unintentional and/or unsafe usage
of FP/SIMD prior to this is trapped, and will ensure that FP/SIMD is
never unintentionally enabled for userspace in mismatched big.LITTLE
systems.

This patch replaces the negative ARM64_HAS_NO_FPSIMD cpucap with a
positive ARM64_HAS_FPSIMD cpucap, making changes as described above.
Note that as FP/SIMD will now be trapped when not supported system-wide,
do_fpsimd_acc() must handle these traps in the same way as for SVE and
SME. The commentary in fpsimd_restore_current_state() is updated to
describe the new scheme.

No users of system_supports_fpsimd() need to know that FP/SIMD is
available prior to alternatives being patched, so this is updated to
use alternative_has_cap_likely() to check for the ARM64_HAS_FPSIMD
cpucap, without generating code to test the system_cpucaps bitmap.

arm64: errata: Add Cortex-A520 speculative unprivileged load workaround

Implement the workaround for ARM Cortex-A520 erratum 2966298. On an
affected Cortex-A520 core, a speculatively executed unprivileged load
might leak data from a privileged load via a cache side channel. The
issue only exists for loads within a translation regime with the same
translation (e.g. same ASID and VMID). Therefore, the issue only affects
the return to EL0.

The workaround is to execute a TLBI before returning to EL0 after all
loads of privileged data. A non-shareable TLBI to any address is
sufficient.

The workaround isn't necessary if page table isolation (KPTI) is
enabled, but for simplicity it will be. Page table isolation should
normally be disabled for Cortex-A520 as it supports the CSV3 feature
and the E0PD feature (used when KASLR is enabled).

arm64: errata: Mitigate Ampere1 erratum AC03_CPU_38 at stage-2

AmpereOne has an erratum in its implementation of FEAT_HAFDBS that
required disabling the feature on the design. This was done by reporting
the feature as not implemented in the ID register, although the
corresponding control bits were not actually RES0. This does not align
well with the requirements of the architecture, which mandates these
bits be RES0 if HAFDBS isn't implemented.

The kernel's use of stage-1 is unaffected, as the HA and HD bits are
only set if HAFDBS is detected in the ID register. KVM, on the other
hand, relies on the RES0 behavior at stage-2 to use the same value for
VTCR_EL2 on any cpu in the system. Mitigate the non-RES0 behavior by
leaving VTCR_EL2.HA clear on affected systems.

arm64: cpufeature: detect FEAT_HCX

Detect if the system has the new HCRX_EL2 register added in ARMv8.7/9.2,
so that subsequent patches can check for its presence.

KVM currently relies on the register being present on all CPUs (or
none), so the kernel will panic if that is not the case. Fortunately no
such systems currently exist, but this can be revisited if they appear.
Note that the kernel will not panic if CONFIG_KVM is disabled.

KVM: arm64: Relax trapping of CTR_EL0 when FEAT_EVT is available

CTR_EL0 can often be used in userspace, and it would be nice if
KVM didn't have to emulate it unnecessarily.

KVM: arm64: Relax trapping of CTR_EL0 when FEAT_EVT is available

CTR_EL0 can often be used in userspace, and it would be nice if
KVM didn't have to emulate it unnecessarily.

While it isn't possible to trap the cache configuration registers
independently from CTR_EL0 in the base ARMv8.0 architecture, FEAT_EVT
allows these cache configuration registers (CCSIDR_EL1, CCSIDR2_EL1,
CLIDR_EL1 and CSSELR_EL1) to be trapped independently by setting
HCR_EL2.TID4.

Switch to using TID4 instead of TID2 in the cases where FEAT_EVT
is available *and* that KVM doesn't need to sanitise CTR_EL0 to
paper over mismatched cache configurations.

arm64: Add HAS_ECV_CNTPOFF capability

Add the probing code for the FEAT_ECV variant that implements CNTPOFF_EL2.
Why it is optional is a mystery, but let's try and detect it.
