7dbfbe5b2f arm64: hyp: initialize vttbr_el2 to zero
The architecture doesn't mandate any reset value for vttbr_el2.
Better set it to a known value before some HYP code gets confused.

712c6ff4db arm64: add hypervisor stub
If booted in EL2, install an dummy hypervisor whose only purpose
is to be replaced by a full fledged one.

A minimal API allows to:
- obtain the current HYP vectors (__hyp_get_vectors)
- set new HYP vectors (__hyp_set_vectors)

f35a92053b arm64: record boot mode when entering the kernel
To be able to signal the availability of EL2 to other parts of
the kernel, record the boot mode.

Once booted, two predicates indicate if HYP mode is available,
and if not, whether this is due to a boot mode mismatch or not.

1f75ff0a3d arm64: generic timer: use virtual counter instead of physical at EL0
We want to use the virtual counter at EL0, as the physical counter
may not track the current clocksource for guests running under a

This patch updates the vdso and generic timer driver to use the virtual
counter. The kernel EL2 entry code is also updated to ensure that the
virtual offset is initialised to zero.

Shifting the nanosecond component of the computed timespec early can

f84a935db4 arm64: vdso: check sequence counter even for coarse realtime operations
When returning coarse realtime values from clock_gettime, we must still
check the sequence counter to ensure that the kernel does not update
the vdso datapage whilst we are loading the coarse timespec as this
could potentially result in time appearing to go backwards.

This patch delays the coarse realtime check until after we have loaded
successfully from the vdso datapage. This does mean that we always load
the wtm timespec, but conditionalising the load and adding an extra
sequence test is unlikely to buy us anything other than messy code,
particularly as the sequence test implies a read barrier.

304ef4e836 arm64: signal: push the unwinding prologue on the signal stack
To allow debuggers to unwind through signal frames, we create a fake
stack unwinding prologue containing the link register and frame pointer
of the interrupted context. The signal frame is then offset by 16 bytes
to make room for the two saved registers which are pushed onto the frame
of the *interrupted* context, rather than placed directly above the
signal stack.

This doesn't work when an alternative signal stack is set up for a SEGV
handler, which is raised in response to RLIMIT_STACK being reached. In
this case, we try to push the unwinding prologue onto the full stack and
subsequently take a fault which we fail to resolve, causing setup_return
to return -EFAULT and handle_signal to force_sigsegv on the current task.

This patch fixes the problem by including the unwinding prologue as part
of the rt_sigframe definition, which is populated during setup_sigframe,
ensuring that it always ends up on the signal stack.

938edf5c04 arm64: mm: update max_dma32 before calculating size of NORMAL zone
Commit f483a853b0 ("arm64: mm: fix booting on systems with no memory

which is incorrect when MAX_DMA32_PFN is below the minimum pfn (i.e. all
memory is above 4GB).

f46f979fda arm64: perf: use architected event for CPU cycle counter
We currently use a fake event encoding (0xFF) to indicate CPU cycles so
that we don't waste an event counter and can target the hardware cycle
counter instead.

The problem with this approach is that the event space defined by the
architecture permits an implementation to allocate 0xFF for some other
event.

This patch uses the architected cycle counter encoding (0x11) so that
we avoid potentially clashing with event encodings on future CPU
implementations.

aeed41a937 arm64: fix alignment padding in assembly code
An interesting effect of using the generic version of linkage.h
is that the padding is defined in terms of x86 NOPs, which can have
even more interesting effects when the assembly code looks like this:

ENTRY(func1)
	mov	x0, xzr
ENDPROC(func1)
	// fall through
ENTRY(func2)
	mov	x0, #1
	ret
ENDPROC(func2)

Admittedly, the code is not very nice. But having code from another
architecture doesn't look completely sane either.

The fix is to add arm64's version of linkage.h, which causes the insertion
of proper AArch64 NOPs.

16dd46bb78 arm64: No need to set the x0-x2 registers in start_thread()
For historical reasons, ARM used to set r0-r2 in start_thread() to the
first values on the user stack when starting a new user application. The
same logic has been inherited in AArch64. The x0 register is overridden
by the sys_execve() return value so it's always zero on success. The x1
and x2 registers are ignored by AArch64 and EABI AArch32 applications,
so we can safely remove the register setting for both native and compat
user space.

This also fixes a potential fault with the kernel accessing user space
stack directly.

Merge tag 'arm64-uapi' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmarinas/linux-aarch64

Pull arm64 uapi disintegration from Catalin Marinas:
 "UAPI headers for arm64 together with some clean-up to make it
  possible:
   - Do not export the COMPAT_* definitions to user
   - Simplify the compat unistd32.h definitions and remove the
     __SYSCALL_COMPAT guard
   - Disintegrate the arch/arm64/include/asm/* headers"

91a27b2a75 vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return it
getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
the string.

For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
need to recopy it from userspace.

This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.

Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
convenient.

7606c37d4a arm64: Do not export the compat-specific definitions to the user
This patch adds #ifdef __KERNEL__ guards around the COMPAT_* definitions
to avoid exporting them to user. AArch32 user requiring the kernel
headers must use those generated with ARCH=arm.
