When CONFIG_VDSO=n, the build normally does not enter arch/arm/vdso/
because arch/arm/Makefile does not add it to core-y.
However, if the user runs 'make arch/arm/vdso/' the VDSO targets will
get visited. This is because the VDSO Makefile itself does not
consider the value of CONFIG_VDSO.
It is arguably better and more consistent behavior to generate an
empty built-in.o when CONFIG_VDSO=n and the user attempts to build
arch/arm/vdso/. It's nicer because it doesn't try to build things
that Kconfig dependencies are there to prevent (e.g. the dependency on
AEABI), and it's less confusing than building objects that won't be
used in the final image.

The Cortex A9 tile fails to unplug CPUs if errata 643719 is not enabled.
This leads to random weird behaviours, but ultimately seem to lock the
kernel one way or another when a CPU is hot unplugged.
Symptoms range from a spinlock lockup in the scheduler, the entire
system hanging, to dumping out the kernel printk buffer a few lines at
a time, and other weird behaviours.
This is caused by the outgoing CPU not having its inner caches properly
flushed before it exits coherency - flush_cache_louis() is used to
achieve this, but as a result of the hardware bug, this function ends
up doing nothing without the errata workaround enabled.
As the Versatile Express has an affected CPU, this errata must always

Normally, when a CPU wants to clear a cache line to zero in the external
L2 cache, it would generate bus cycles to write each word as it would do
with any other data access.
However, a Cortex A9 connected to a L2C-310 has a specific feature where
the CPU can detect this operation, and signal that it wants to zero an
entire cache line. This feature, known as Full Line of Zeros (FLZ),
involves a non-standard AXI signalling mechanism which only the L2C-310
can properly interpret.
There are separate enable bits in both the L2C-310 and the Cortex A9 -
the L2C-310 needs to be enabled and have the FLZ enable bit set in the
auxiliary control register before the Cortex A9 has this feature
enabled.
Unfortunately, the suspend code was not respecting this - it's not
obvious from the code:
swsusp_arch_suspend()
cpu_suspend() /* saves the Cortex A9 auxiliary control register */
arch_save_image()
soft_restart() /* turns off FLZ in Cortex A9, and disables L2C */
cpu_resume() /* restores the Cortex A9 registers, inc auxcr */
At this point, we end up with the L2C disabled, but the Cortex A9 with
FLZ enabled - which means any memset() or zeroing of a full cache line
will fail to take effect.
A similar issue exists in the resume path, but it's slightly more
complex:
swsusp_arch_suspend()
cpu_suspend() /* saves the Cortex A9 auxiliary control register */
arch_save_image() /* image with A9 auxcr saved */
...
swsusp_arch_resume()
call_with_stack()
arch_restore_image() /* restores image with A9 auxcr saved above */
soft_restart() /* turns off FLZ in Cortex A9, and disables L2C */
cpu_resume() /* restores the Cortex A9 registers, inc auxcr */
Again, here we end up with the L2C disabled, but Cortex A9 FLZ enabled.
There's no need to turn off the L2C in either of these two paths; there
are benefits from not doing so - for example, the page copies will be
faster with the L2C enabled.
Hence, fix this by providing a variant of soft_restart() which can be
used without turning the L2 cache controller off, and use it in both
of these paths to keep the L2C enabled across the respective resume
transitions.

When building a very large kernel, it is up to the linker to decide
when and where to insert stubs to allow calls to functions that are
out of range for the ordinary b/bl instructions.
However, since the kernel is built as a position dependent binary,
these stubs (aka veneers) may contain absolute addresses, which will
break far calls performed with the MMU off.
For instance, the call from __enable_mmu() in the .head.text section
to __turn_mmu_on() in the .idmap.text section may be turned into
something like this:
c0008168 <__enable_mmu>:
c0008168: f020 0002 bic.w r0, r0, #2
c000816c: f420 5080 bic.w r0, r0, #4096
c0008170: f000 b846 b.w c0008200 <____turn_mmu_on_veneer>
[...]
c0008200 <____turn_mmu_on_veneer>:
c0008200: 4778 bx pc
c0008202: 46c0 nop
c0008204: e59fc000 ldr ip, [pc]
c0008208: e12fff1c bx ip
c000820c: c13dfae1 teqgt sp, r1, ror #21
[...]
c13dfae0 <__turn_mmu_on>:
c13dfae0: 4600 mov r0, r0
[...]
After adding --pic-veneer to the LDFLAGS, the veneer is emitted like
this instead:
c0008200 <____turn_mmu_on_veneer>:
c0008200: 4778 bx pc
c0008202: 46c0 nop
c0008204: e59fc004 ldr ip, [pc, #4]
c0008208: e08fc00c add ip, pc, ip
c000820c: e12fff1c bx ip
c0008210: 013d7d31 teqeq sp, r1, lsr sp
c0008214: 00000000 andeq r0, r0, r0
Note that this particular example is best addressed by moving
.head.text and .idmap.text closer together, but this issue could
potentially affect any code that needs to execute with the
MMU off.

Usually ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is 2/3 of TASK_SIZE. With 3G/1G user/kernel
split this is not so, because 2*TASK_SIZE overflows 32 bits,
so the actual value of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is:
(2 * TASK_SIZE / 3) = 0x2a000000
When ASLR is disabled PIE binaries will load at ELF_ET_DYN_BASE address.
On 32bit platforms AddressSanitzer uses addresses [0x20000000 - 0x40000000]
for shadow memory [1]. So ASan doesn't work for PIE binaries when ASLR disabled
as it fails to map shadow memory.
Also after Kees's 'split ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR' patchset PIE binaries
has a high chance of loading somewhere in between [0x2a000000 - 0x40000000]
even if ASLR enabled. This makes ASan with PIE absolutely incompatible.
Fix overflow by dividing TASK_SIZE prior to multiplying.
After this patch ELF_ET_DYN_BASE equals to (for CONFIG_VMSPLIT_3G=y):
(TASK_SIZE / 3 * 2) = 0x7f555554

Initialize the VDSO page list at boot, install the VDSO mapping at
exec time, and update the data page during timer ticks. This code is
not built if CONFIG_VDSO is not enabled.
Account for the VDSO length when randomizing the offset from the
stack. The [vdso] and [vvar] pages are placed immediately following
the sigpage with separate _install_special_mapping calls.
We want to "penalize" systems lacking the arch timer as little
as possible. Previous versions of this code installed the VDSO
unconditionally and unmodified, making it a measurably slower way for
glibc to invoke the real syscalls on such systems. E.g. calling
gettimeofday via glibc goes from ~560ns to ~630ns on i.MX6Q.
If we can indicate to glibc that the time-related APIs in the VDSO are
not accelerated, glibc can continue to invoke the syscalls directly
instead of dispatching through the VDSO only to fall back to the slow
path.
Thus, if the architected timer is unusable for whatever reason, patch
the VDSO at boot time so that symbol lookups for gettimeofday and
clock_gettime return NULL. (This is similar to what powerpc does and
borrows code from there.) This allows glibc to perform the syscall
directly instead of passing control to the VDSO, which minimizes the
penalty. In my measurements the time taken for a gettimeofday call
via glibc goes from ~560ns to ~580ns (again on i.MX6Q), and this is
solely due to adding a test and branch to glibc's gettimeofday syscall
wrapper.
An alternative to patching the VDSO at boot would be to not install
the VDSO at all when the arch timer isn't usable. Another alternative
is to include a separate "dummy" vdso.so without gettimeofday and
clock_gettime, which would be selected at boot time. Either of these
would get cumbersome if the VDSO were to gain support for an API such
as getcpu which is unrelated to arch timer support.

Place VDSO-related user-space code in arch/arm/kernel/vdso/.
It is almost completely written in C with some assembly helpers to
load the data page address, sample the counter, and fall back to
system calls when necessary.
The VDSO can service gettimeofday and clock_gettime when
CONFIG_ARM_ARCH_TIMER is enabled and the architected timer is present
(and correctly configured). It reads the CP15-based virtual counter
to compute high-resolution timestamps.
Of particular note is that a post-processing step ("vdsomunge") is
necessary to produce a shared object which is architecturally allowed
to be used by both soft- and hard-float EABI programs.
The 2012 edition of the ARM ABI defines Tag_ABI_VFP_args = 3 "Code is
compatible with both the base and VFP variants; the user did not
permit non-variadic functions to pass FP parameters/results."
Unfortunately current toolchains do not support this tag, which is
ideally what we would use.
The best available option is to ensure that both EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_SOFT
and EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_HARD are unset in the ELF header's e_flags,
indicating that the shared object is "old" and should be accepted for
backward compatibility's sake. While binutils < 2.24 appear to
produce a vdso.so with both flags clear, 2.24 always sets
EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_SOFT, with no way to inhibit this behavior. So we
have to fix things up with a custom post-processing step.
In fact, the VDSO code in glibc does much less validation (including
checking these flags) than the code for handling conventional
file-backed shared libraries, so this is a bit moot unless glibc's
VDSO code becomes more strict.

Add declarations for arm_install_vdso; implementation is in a
following patch.
Define AT_SYSINFO_EHDR, and, if CONFIG_VDSO=y, report the vdso shared
object address via the ELF auxiliary vector.
Note - this adds the AT_SYSINFO_EHDR in a new user-visible header
asm/auxvec.h; this is consistent with other architectures.

Historically, the PMU devicetree bindings have expected SPIs to be
listed in order of *logical* CPU number. This is problematic for
bootloaders, especially when the boot CPU (logical ID 0) isn't listed
first in the devicetree.
This patch adds a new optional property, interrupt-affinity, to the
PMU node which allows the interrupt affinity to be described using
a list of phandled to CPU nodes, with each entry in the list
corresponding to the SPI at the same index in the interrupts property.

The perf core implicitly rejects events spanning multiple HW PMUs, as in
these cases the event->ctx will differ. However this validation is
performed after pmu::event_init() is called in perf_init_event(), and
thus pmu::event_init() may be called with a group leader from a
different HW PMU.
The ARM PMU driver does not take this fact into account, and when
validating groups assumes that it can call to_arm_pmu(event->pmu) for
any HW event. When the event in question is from another HW PMU this is
wrong, and results in dereferencing garbage.
This patch updates the ARM PMU driver to first test for and reject
events from other PMUs, moving the to_arm_pmu and related logic after
this test. Fixes a crash triggered by perf_fuzzer on Linux-4.0-rc2, with
a CCI PMU present:

Also cleans up the code to use the arm_pmu only when we know that
we are dealing with an arm pmu event.

When using the IOMMU-backed DMA ops for a device, we store a pointer to
the dma_iommu_mapping structure (used to keep track of the address
space) in the archdata.mapping field of the struct device.
Rather than access this field directly, use the to_dma_iommu_mapping
helper in dma-mapping, so that we don't really care where the mapping
information is held.

Replace inline asm statement in __get_cpu_architecture() with equivalent
macro invocation, i.e. read_cpuid_ext(CPUID_EXT_MMFR0);
As an added bonus, this squashes a potential bug, described by Paul
Walmsley in commit 067e710b9a ("ARM: 7801/1: prevent gcc 4.5 from
reordering extended CP15 reads above is_smp() test").

The set_memory_* functions currently only support module
addresses. The addresses are validated using is_module_addr.
That function is special though and relies on internal state
in the module subsystem to work properly. At the time of
module initialization and calling set_memory_*, it's too early
for is_module_addr to work properly so it always returns
false. Rather than be subject to the whims of the module state,
just bounds check against the module virtual address range.

Allow prefetch settings overriding by device tree, in case
l2x0_cache_size_of_parse() returns value, prefetch tuning
properties are silently ignored. E.g. arm,double-linefill* and
arm,prefetch*.
This happens for example, when "cache-size" or "cache-sets"
properties haven't been filled in l2c dt node.
Comments from Fabrice Gasnier:
Allow device tree to override the L2C prefetch settings, even when
l2x0_cache_size_of_parse() fails to parse the cache geometry due to (eg)
missing "cache-size" or "cache-sets" properties.
