9fb7410f95 arm64/BUG: Use BRK instruction for generic BUG traps
Currently, the minimal default BUG() implementation from asm-
generic is used for arm64.

This patch uses the BRK software breakpoint instruction to generate
a trap instead, similarly to most other arches, with the generic
BUG code generating the dmesg boilerplate.

This allows bug metadata to be moved to a separate table and
reduces the amount of inline code at BUG and WARN sites.  This also
avoids clobbering any registers before they can be dumped.

To mitigate the size of the bug table further, this patch makes
use of the existing infrastructure for encoding addresses within
the bug table as 32-bit offsets instead of absolute pointers.
(Note that this limits the kernel size to 2GB.)

Traps are registered at arch_initcall time for aarch64, but BUG
has minimal real dependencies and it is desirable to be able to
generate bug splats as early as possible.  This patch redirects
all debug exceptions caused by BRK directly to bug_handler() until
the full debug exception support has been initialised.

338d4f49d6 arm64: kernel: Add support for Privileged Access Never
'Privileged Access Never' is a new arm8.1 feature which prevents
privileged code from accessing any virtual address where read or write
access is also permitted at EL0.

This patch enables the PAN feature on all CPUs, and modifies {get,put}_user
helpers temporarily to permit access.

This will catch kernel bugs where user memory is accessed directly.
'Unprivileged loads and stores' using ldtrb et al are unaffected by PAN.

f871d26807 arm64: Fix show_unhandled_signal_ratelimited usage
Commit 86dca36e6b introduced ratelimited usage for
'unhandled_signal' messages.
The commit checks the ratelimit irrespective of whether
the signal is handled or not, which is wrong and leads
to false reports like the below in dmesg :

__do_user_fault: 127 callbacks suppressed

Do the ratelimit check only if the signal is unhandled.

86dca36e6b arm64: use private ratelimit state along with show_unhandled_signals
printk_ratelimit() shares the ratelimiting state with other callers what
may lead to scenarios where at the time we want to print out debug
information we already limited, so nothing appears in the dmesg - this
makes exception-trace quite poor helper in debugging.

Additionally, we have imbalance with some messages limited with global
ratelimit state and other messages limited with their private state
defined via pr_*_ratelimited().

To address this inconsistency show_unhandled_signals_ratelimited()
macro is introduced and caller sites are converted to use it.

70ffdb9393 mm/fault, arch: Use pagefault_disable() to check for disabled pagefaults in the handler
Introduce faulthandler_disabled() and use it to check for irq context and
disabled pagefaults (via pagefault_disable()) in the pagefault handlers.

Please note that we keep the in_atomic() checks in place - to detect
whether in irq context (in which case preemption is always properly
disabled).

In contrast, preempt_disable() should never be used to disable pagefaults.
With !CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT, preempt_disable() doesn't modify the preempt
counter, and therefore the result of in_atomic() differs.
We validate that condition by using might_fault() checks when calling
might_sleep().

Therefore, add a comment to faulthandler_disabled(), describing why this
is needed.

faulthandler_disabled() and pagefault_disable() are defined in
linux/uaccess.h, so let's properly add that include to all relevant files.

This patch is based on a patch from Thomas Gleixner.

7f73f7aef8 arm64: mm: report unhandled level-0 translation faults correctly
Translation faults that occur due to the input address being outside
of the address range mapped by the relevant base register are reported
as level 0 faults in ESR.DFSC.

If the faulting access cannot be resolved by the kernel (e.g. because
it is not mapped by a vma), then we report "input address range fault"
on the console. This was fine until we added support for 48-bit VAs,
which actually place PGDs at level 0 and can trigger faults for invalid
addresses that are within the range of the page tables.

This patch changes the string to report "level 0 translation fault",
which is far less confusing.

c79b954bf6 arm64: mm: Implement 4 levels of translation tables
This patch implements 4 levels of translation tables since 3 levels
of page tables with 4KB pages cannot support 40-bit physical address
space described in [1] due to the following issue.

It is a restriction that kernel logical memory map with 4KB + 3 levels
(0xffffffc000000000-0xffffffffffffffff) cannot cover RAM region from
544GB to 1024GB in [1]. Specifically, ARM64 kernel fails to create
mapping for this region in map_mem function since __phys_to_virt for
this region reaches to address overflow.

If SoC design follows the document, [1], over 32GB RAM would be placed
from 544GB. Even 64GB system is supposed to use the region from 544GB
to 576GB for only 32GB RAM. Naturally, it would reach to enable 4 levels
of page tables to avoid hacking __virt_to_phys and __phys_to_virt.

However, it is recommended 4 levels of page table should be only enabled
if memory map is too sparse or there is about 512GB RAM.

bc07c2c6e9 arm64: Introduce execute-only page access permissions
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.

759496ba64 arch: mm: pass userspace fault flag to generic fault handler
Unlike global OOM handling, memory cgroup code will invoke the OOM killer
in any OOM situation because it has no way of telling faults occuring in
kernel context - which could be handled more gracefully - from
user-triggered faults.

Pass a flag that identifies faults originating in user space from the
architecture-specific fault handlers to generic code so that memcg OOM
handling can be improved.

db6f41063c arm64: mm: don't treat user cache maintenance faults as writes
On arm64, cache maintenance faults appear as data aborts with the CM
bit set in the ESR. The WnR bit, usually used to distinguish between
faulting loads and stores, always reads as 1 and (slightly confusingly)
the instructions are treated as reads by the architecture.

This patch fixes our fault handling code to treat cache maintenance
faults in the same way as loads.

4339e3f389 arm64: mm: Correct show_pte behaviour
show_pte makes use of the *_none_or_clear_bad style functions. If a
pgd, pud or pmd is identified as being bad, it will then be cleared.

As show_pte appears to be called from either the user or kernel
fault handlers this side effect can lead to unpredictable behaviour;
especially as TLB entries are not invalidated.

This patch removes the page table sanitisation from show_pte. If a
bad pgd, pud or pmd is encountered it is left unmodified.

3495386b10 arm64: Make the user fault reporting more specific
For user space faults the kernel reports "unhandled page fault" and it
gives the ESR value. With this patch the error message looked up in the
fault info array to give a better description.

1d18c47c73 arm64: MMU fault handling and page table management
This patch adds support for the handling of the MMU faults (exception
entry code introduced by a previous patch) and page table management.

The user translation table is pointed to by TTBR0 and the kernel one
(swapper_pg_dir) by TTBR1. There is no translation information shared or
address space overlapping between user and kernel page tables.
