Linux requires a number of atomic operations to provide full barrier
semantics, that is no memory accesses after the operation can be
observed before any accesses up to and including the operation in
program order.
On arm64, these operations have been incorrectly implemented as follows:
// A, B, C are independent memory locations
<Access [A]>
// atomic_op (B)
1: ldaxr x0, [B] // Exclusive load with acquire
<op(B)>
stlxr w1, x0, [B] // Exclusive store with release
cbnz w1, 1b
<Access [C]>
The assumption here being that two half barriers are equivalent to a
full barrier, so the only permitted ordering would be A -> B -> C
(where B is the atomic operation involving both a load and a store).
Unfortunately, this is not the case by the letter of the architecture
and, in fact, the accesses to A and C are permitted to pass their
nearest half barrier resulting in orderings such as Bl -> A -> C -> Bs
or Bl -> C -> A -> Bs (where Bl is the load-acquire on B and Bs is the
store-release on B). This is a clear violation of the full barrier
requirement.
The simple way to fix this is to implement the same algorithm as ARMv7
using explicit barriers:
<Access [A]>
// atomic_op (B)
dmb ish // Full barrier
1: ldxr x0, [B] // Exclusive load
<op(B)>
stxr w1, x0, [B] // Exclusive store
cbnz w1, 1b
dmb ish // Full barrier
<Access [C]>
but this has the undesirable effect of introducing *two* full barrier
instructions. A better approach is actually the following, non-intuitive
sequence:
<Access [A]>
// atomic_op (B)
1: ldxr x0, [B] // Exclusive load
<op(B)>
stlxr w1, x0, [B] // Exclusive store with release
cbnz w1, 1b
dmb ish // Full barrier
<Access [C]>
The simple observations here are:
- The dmb ensures that no subsequent accesses (e.g. the access to C)
can enter or pass the atomic sequence.
- The dmb also ensures that no prior accesses (e.g. the access to A)
can pass the atomic sequence.
- Therefore, no prior access can pass a subsequent access, or
vice-versa (i.e. A is strictly ordered before C).
- The stlxr ensures that no prior access can pass the store component
of the atomic operation.
The only tricky part remaining is the ordering between the ldxr and the
access to A, since the absence of the first dmb means that we're now
permitting re-ordering between the ldxr and any prior accesses.
From an (arbitrary) observer's point of view, there are two scenarios:
1. We have observed the ldxr. This means that if we perform a store to
[B], the ldxr will still return older data. If we can observe the
ldxr, then we can potentially observe the permitted re-ordering
with the access to A, which is clearly an issue when compared to
the dmb variant of the code. Thankfully, the exclusive monitor will
save us here since it will be cleared as a result of the store and
the ldxr will retry. Notice that any use of a later memory
observation to imply observation of the ldxr will also imply
observation of the access to A, since the stlxr/dmb ensure strict
ordering.
2. We have not observed the ldxr. This means we can perform a store
and influence the later ldxr. However, that doesn't actually tell
us anything about the access to [A], so we've not lost anything
here either when compared to the dmb variant.
This patch implements this solution for our barriered atomic operations,
ensuring that we satisfy the full barrier requirements where they are
needed.

The architecture specification states that both DSB and ISB are required
between page table modifications and subsequent memory accesses using the
corresponding virtual address. When TLB invalidation takes place, the
tlb_flush_* functions already have the necessary barriers. However, there are
other functions like create_mapping() for which this is not the case.
The patch adds the DSB+ISB instructions in the set_pte() function for
valid kernel mappings. The invalid pte case is handled by tlb_flush_*
and the user mappings in general have a corresponding update_mmu_cache()
call containing a DSB. Even when update_mmu_cache() isn't called, the
kernel can still cope with an unlikely spurious page fault by
re-executing the instruction.
In addition, the set_pmd, set_pud() functions gain an ISB for
architecture compliance when block mappings are created.

The tlb maintainence functions: __cpu_flush_user_tlb_range and
__cpu_flush_kern_tlb_range do not take into consideration the page
granule when looping through the address range, and repeatedly flush
tlb entries for the same page when operating with 64K pages.
This patch re-works the logic s.t. we instead advance the loop by
1 << (PAGE_SHIFT - 12), so avoid repeating ourselves.
Also the routines have been converted from assembler to static inline
functions to aid with legibility and potential compiler optimisations.
The isb() has been removed from flush_tlb_kernel_range(.) as it is
only needed when changing the execute permission of a mapping. If one
needs to set an area of the kernel as execute/non-execute an isb()
must be inserted after the call to flush_tlb_kernel_range.

The kernel FDT functions predate libfdt and are much more limited in

not compatible with each other because they have different definitions
of node offsets. To avoid this incompatibility and in preparation to
add more FDT parsing functions which will need libfdt, let's first
convert the existing code to use libfdt.
The FDT unflattening, top-level FDT scanning, and property retrieval
functions are converted to use libfdt. The scanning code should be
re-worked to be more efficient and understandable by using libfdt to
find nodes directly by path or compatible strings.

This patch adds support for static (defined by 'reg' property) reserved
memory regions declared in device tree.
Memory blocks can be reliably reserved only during early boot. This must
happen before the whole memory management subsystem is initialized,
because we need to ensure that the given contiguous blocks are not yet
allocated by kernel. Also it must happen before kernel mappings for the
whole low memory are created, to ensure that there will be no mappings
(for reserved blocks). Typically, all this happens before device tree
structures are unflattened, so we need to get reserved memory layout
directly from fdt.

On some PAE architectures, the entire range of physical memory could reside
outside the 32-bit limit. These systems need the ability to specify the
initrd location using 64-bit numbers.
This patch globally modifies the early_init_dt_setup_initrd_arch() function to
use 64-bit numbers instead of the current unsigned long.
There has been quite a bit of debate about whether to use u64 or phys_addr_t.
It was concluded to stick to u64 to be consistent with rest of the device
tree code. As summarized by Geert, "The address to load the initrd is decided
by the bootloader/user and set at that point later in time. The dtb should not
be tied to the kernel you are booting"

Currently we place swapper_pg_dir and idmap_pg_dir below the kernel
image, between PHYS_OFFSET and (PHYS_OFFSET + TEXT_OFFSET). However,
bootloaders may use portions of this memory below the kernel and we do
not parse the memory reservation list until after the MMU has been
enabled. As such we may clobber some memory a bootloader wishes to have
preserved.
To enable the use of all of this memory by bootloaders (when the
required memory reservations are communicated to the kernel) it is
necessary to move our initial page tables elsewhere. As we currently
have an effectively unbound requirement for memory at the end of the
kernel image for .bss, we can place the page tables here.
This patch moves the initial page table to the end of the kernel image,
after the BSS. As they do not consist of any initialised data they will
be stripped from the kernel Image as with the BSS. The BSS clearing
routine is updated to stop at __bss_stop rather than _end so as to not
clobber the page tables, and memory reservations made redundant by the
new organisation are removed.

Currently __turn_mmu_on is aligned to 64 bytes to ensure that it doesn't

requiring an additional page table to map half of the function. In
keeping with other important requirements in architecture code, this
fact is undocumented.
Additionally, as the function consists of three instructions totalling
12 bytes with no literal pool data, a smaller alignment of 16 bytes
would be sufficient.
This patch reduces the alignment to 16 bytes and documents the
underlying reason for the alignment. This reduces the required alignment
of the entire .head.text section from 64 bytes to 16 bytes, though it
may still be aligned to a larger value depending on TEXT_OFFSET.

When calling our low-level barrier macros directly, we can often suffice
with more relaxed behaviour than the default "all accesses, full system"
option.
This patch updates the users of dsb() to specify the option which they
actually require.

Some users of xchg() don't bother using the return value, which results
in a compiler warning like the following (from kgdb):

This patch makes use of the same trick as we do for cmpxchg, by assigning
the return value to a dummy variable in the xchg() macro itself.

arm64 sets CONFIG_64BIT=y and hence uses the "long counter" atomic64_t
definition from include/linux/types.h. Make atomic64_read() return "long",
not "long long".

(cherry picked from commit ba6bf8c85c)

The ARMv8 architecture allows execute-only user permissions by clearing
the PTE_UXN and PTE_USER bits. The kernel, however, can still access
such page, so execute-only page permission does not protect against
read(2)/write(2) etc. accesses. Systems requiring such protection must
implement/enable features like SECCOMP.
This patch changes the arm64 __P100 and __S100 protection_map[] macros
to the new __PAGE_EXECONLY attributes. A side effect is that
pte_valid_user() no longer triggers for __PAGE_EXECONLY since PTE_USER
isn't set. To work around this, the check is done on the PTE_NG bit via
the pte_valid_ng() macro. VM_READ is also checked now for page faults.

This patch removes the aux_context structure (and the containing file)
to allow the placement of the _aarch64_ctx end magic based on the

The synchronisation with the boot thread already happens in __cpu_up()
via wait_for_completion_timeout(). In addition, __cpu_up() calls are
protected by the cpu_add_remove_lock mutex and already serialised.
