This patch enables irqfd on arm/arm64.
Both irqfd and resamplefd are supported. Injection is implemented
in vgic.c without routing.
This patch enables CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_EVENTFD and CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQFD.
KVM_CAP_IRQFD is now advertised. KVM_CAP_IRQFD_RESAMPLE capability
automatically is advertised as soon as CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQFD is set.
Irqfd injection is restricted to SPI. The rationale behind not
supporting PPI irqfd injection is that any device using a PPI would
be a private-to-the-CPU device (timer for instance), so its state
would have to be context-switched along with the VCPU and would
require in-kernel wiring anyhow. It is not a relevant use case for
irqfds.

On arm/arm64 the VGIC is dynamically instantiated and it is useful
to expose its state, especially for irqfd setup.
This patch defines __KVM_HAVE_ARCH_INTC_INITIALIZED and

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it
is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling
itself out via kvm_vcpu_block.
This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular
I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host.
In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all
the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or
the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal,
or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these
parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and
at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache).
The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides
to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then
migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible
because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in.
With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more
important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This
means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more
work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU.
Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs
is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus
impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with
a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around
1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU.
The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll,
that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT
instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each
successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back
in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU.
While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second.
Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark,
instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more
or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not
running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may
be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick.
The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency
test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has
awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock
cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC
deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and
a smaller variance.

When handling a fault in stage-2, we need to resync I$ and D$, just
to be sure we don't leave any old cache line behind.
That's very good, except that we do so using the *user* address.
Under heavy load (swapping like crazy), we may end up in a situation
where the page gets mapped in stage-2 while being unmapped from
userspace by another CPU.
At that point, the DC/IC instructions can generate a fault, which
we handle with kvm->mmu_lock held. The box quickly deadlocks, user
is unhappy.
Instead, perform this invalidation through the kernel mapping,
which is guaranteed to be present. The box is much happier, and so
am I.

Let's assume a guest has created an uncached mapping, and written
to that page. Let's also assume that the host uses a cache-coherent
IO subsystem. Let's finally assume that the host is under memory
pressure and starts to swap things out.
Before this "uncached" page is evicted, we need to make sure
we invalidate potential speculated, clean cache lines that are
sitting there, or the IO subsystem is going to swap out the
cached view, loosing the data that has been written directly
into memory.

Trying to emulate the behaviour of set/way cache ops is fairly
pointless, as there are too many ways we can end-up missing stuff.
Also, there is some system caches out there that simply ignore
set/way operations.
So instead of trying to implement them, let's convert it to VA ops,
and use them as a way to re-enable the trapping of VM ops. That way,
we can detect the point when the MMU/caches are turned off, and do

Alternate macro mode is not a property of a macro definition, but a
gas runtime state that alters the way macros are expanded for ever
after (until .noaltmacro is seen).
This means that subsequent assembly code that calls other macros can
break if fpsimdmacros.h is included.
Since these instruction sequences are simple (if dull -- but in a
good way), this patch solves the problem by simply expanding the
.irp loops. The pre-existing fpsimd_{save,restore} macros weren't
rolled with .irp anyway and the sequences affected are short, so
this change restores consistency at little cost.

ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND config option was introduced to make code providing
context save/restore selectable only on platforms requiring power
management capabilities.
Currently ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND depends on the PM_SLEEP config option which
in turn is set by the SUSPEND config option.
The introduction of CPU_IDLE for arm64 requires that code configured
by ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND (context save/restore) should be compiled in
in order to enable the CPU idle driver to rely on CPU operations
carrying out context save/restore.
The ARM64_CPUIDLE config option (ARM64 generic idle driver) is therefore
forced to select ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND, even if there may be (ie PM_SLEEP)
failed dependencies, which is not a clean way of handling the kernel
configuration option.
For these reasons, this patch removes the ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND config option
and makes the context save/restore dependent on CPU_PM, which is selected
whenever either SUSPEND or CPU_IDLE are configured, cleaning up dependencies
in the process.
This way, code previously configured through ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND is
compiled in whenever a power management subsystem requires it to be
present in the kernel (SUSPEND || CPU_IDLE), which is the behaviour
expected on ARM64 kernels.
The cpu_suspend and cpu_init_idle CPU operations are added only if
CPU_IDLE is selected, since they are CPU_IDLE specific methods and
should be grouped and defined accordingly.
PSCI CPU operations are updated to reflect the introduced changes.

Emulate deprecated 'setend' instruction for AArch32 bit tasks.
setend [le/be] - Sets the endianness of EL0
On systems with CPUs which support mixed endian at EL0, the hardware
support for the instruction can be enabled by setting the SCTLR_EL1.SED
bit. Like the other emulated instructions it is controlled by an entry in
/proc/sys/abi/. For more information see :
Documentation/arm64/legacy_instructions.txt
The instruction is emulated by setting/clearing the SPSR_EL1.E bit, which
will be reflected in the PSTATE.E in AArch32 context.
This patch also restores the native endianness for the execution of signal
handlers, since the process could have changed the endianness.
Note: All CPUs on the system must have mixed endian support at EL0. Once the
handler is registered, hotplugging a CPU which doesn't support mixed endian,
could lead to unexpected results/behavior in applications.

PCI IO space was intended to be 16MiB, at 32MiB below MODULES_VADDR, but
commit d1e6dc91b5 ("arm64: Add architectural support for PCI")
extended this to cover the full 32MiB. The final 8KiB of this 32MiB is
also allocated for the fixmap, allowing for potential clashes between
the two.
This change was masked by assumptions in mem_init and the page table
dumping code, which assumed the I/O space to be 16MiB long through
seaparte hard-coded definitions.
This patch changes the definition of the PCI I/O space allocation to
live in asm/memory.h, along with the other VA space allocations. As the
fixmap allocation depends on the number of fixmap entries, this is moved
below the PCI I/O space allocation. Both the fixmap and PCI I/O space
are guarded with 2MB of padding. Sites assuming the I/O space was 16MiB
are moved over use new PCI_IO_{START,END} definitions, which will keep
in sync with the size of the IO space (now restored to 16MiB).
As a useful side effect, the use of the new PCI_IO_{START,END}
definitions prevents a build issue in the dumping code due to a (now
redundant) missing include of io.h for PCI_IOBASE.

Add page protections for arm64 similar to those in arm.
This is for security reasons to prevent certain classes
of exploits. The current method:
- Map all memory as either RWX or RW. We round to the nearest
section to avoid creating page tables before everything is mapped
- Once everything is mapped, if either end of the RWX section should
not be X, we split the PMD and remap as necessary
- When initmem is to be freed, we change the permissions back to
RW (using stop machine if necessary to flush the TLB)
- If CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set, the read only sections are set
read only.

Currently we have separate ESR_EL{1,2}_* macros, despite the fact that
the encodings are common. While encodings are architected to refer to
the current EL or a lower EL, the macros refer to particular ELs (e.g.
ESR_ELx_EC_DABT_EL0). Having these duplicate definitions is redundant,
and their naming is misleading.
This patch introduces common ESR_ELx_* macros that can be used in all
cases, in preparation for later patches which will migrate existing
users over. Some additional cleanups are made in the process:
* Suffixes for particular exception levelts (e.g. _EL0, _EL1) are
replaced with more general _LOW and _CUR suffixes, matching the
architectural intent.
* ESR_ELx_EC_WFx, rather than ESR_ELx_EC_WFI is introduced, as this
EC encoding covers traps from both WFE and WFI. Similarly,
ESR_ELx_WFx_ISS_WFE rather than ESR_ELx_EC_WFI_ISS_WFE is introduced.
* Multi-bit fields are given consistently named _SHIFT and _MASK macros.
* UL() is used for compatiblity with assembly files.
* Comments are added for currently unallocated ESR_ELx.EC encodings.
For fields other than ESR_ELx.EC, macros are only implemented for fields
for which there is already an ESR_EL{1,2}_* macro.
