Unfortunately, the name/value choice for the MTE ELF segment type
(PT_ARM_MEMTAG_MTE) was pretty poor: LOPROC+1 is already in use by
PT_AARCH64_UNWIND, as defined in the AArch64 ELF ABI
(https://github.com/ARM-software/abi-aa/blob/main/aaelf64/aaelf64.rst).
Update the ELF segment type value to LOPROC+2 and also change the define
to PT_AARCH64_MEMTAG_MTE to match the AArch64 ELF ABI namespace. The
AArch64 ELF ABI document is updating accordingly (segment type not
previously mentioned in the document).

As pointed out by Evgenii Stepanov one potential issue with the new ABI for
enabling asymmetric is that if there are multiple places where MTE is
configured in a process, some of which were compiled with the old prctl.h
and some of which were compiled with the new prctl.h, there may be problems
keeping track of which MTE modes are requested. For example some code may
disable only sync and async modes leaving asymmetric mode enabled when it
intended to fully disable MTE.
In order to avoid such mishaps remove asymmetric mode from the prctl(),
instead implicitly allowing it if both sync and async modes are requested.
This should not disrupt userspace since a process requesting both may
already see a mix of sync and async modes due to differing defaults between
CPUs or changes in default while the process is running but it does mean
that userspace is unable to explicitly request asymmetric mode without
changing the system default for CPUs.

When a IAR register read races with a GIC interrupt RELEASE event,
GIC-CPU interface could wrongly return a valid INTID to the CPU
for an interrupt that is already released(non activated) instead of 0x3ff.
As a side effect, an interrupt handler could run twice, once with
interrupt priority and then with idle priority.
As a workaround, gic_read_iar is updated so that it will return a
valid interrupt ID only if there is a change in the active priority list
after the IAR read on all the affected Silicons.
Since there are silicon variants where both 23154 and 38545 are applicable,
workaround for erratum 23154 has been extended to address both of them.

With the current wording readers might infer that PR_GET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL
will report the mode currently active in the thread however this is not the
actual behaviour, instead all modes currently selected by the process will
be reported with the mode used depending on the combination of the
requested modes and the default set for the current CPU. This has been the
case since 433c38f40f6a81 ("arm64: mte: change ASYNC and SYNC TCF settings
into bitfields"), before that we did not allow more than one mode to be
requested simultaneously.
Update the documentation to more clearly reflect current behaviour.

Cortex-A510's erratum #2077057 causes SPSR_EL2 to be corrupted when
single-stepping authenticated ERET instructions. A single step is
expected, but a pointer authentication trap is taken instead. The
erratum causes SPSR_EL1 to be copied to SPSR_EL2, which could allow
EL1 to cause a return to EL2 with a guest controlled ELR_EL2.
Because the conditions require an ERET into active-not-pending state,
this is only a problem for the EL2 when EL2 is stepping EL1. In this case
the previous SPSR_EL2 value is preserved in struct kvm_vcpu, and can be
restored.

TRBE implementations affected by Arm erratum #2038923 might get TRBE into
an inconsistent view on whether trace is prohibited within the CPU. As a
result, the trace buffer or trace buffer state might be corrupted. This
happens after TRBE buffer has been enabled by setting TRBLIMITR_EL1.E,
followed by just a single context synchronization event before execution
changes from a context, in which trace is prohibited to one where it isn't,
or vice versa. In these mentioned conditions, the view of whether trace is
prohibited is inconsistent between parts of the CPU, and the trace buffer
or the trace buffer state might be corrupted. This adds a new errata
ARM64_ERRATUM_2038923 in arm64 errata framework.

Arm Neoverse-N2 and Cortex-A710 cores are affected by an erratum where
the trbe, under some circumstances, might write upto 64bytes to an
address after the Limit as programmed by the TRBLIMITR_EL1.LIMIT.
This might -
- Corrupt a page in the ring buffer, which may corrupt trace from a
previous session, consumed by userspace.
- Hit the guard page at the end of the vmalloc area and raise a fault.
To keep the handling simpler, we always leave the last page from the
range, which TRBE is allowed to write. This can be achieved by ensuring
that we always have more than a PAGE worth space in the range, while
calculating the LIMIT for TRBE. And then the LIMIT pointer can be
adjusted to leave the PAGE (TRBLIMITR.LIMIT -= PAGE_SIZE), out of the
TRBE range while enabling it. This makes sure that the TRBE will only
write to an area within its allowed limit (i.e, [head-head+size]) and
we do not have to handle address faults within the driver.

Arm Neoverse-N2 (#2067961) and Cortex-A710 (#2054223) suffers
from errata, where a TSB (trace synchronization barrier)
fails to flush the trace data completely, when executed from
a trace prohibited region. In Linux we always execute it
after we have moved the PE to trace prohibited region. So,
we can apply the workaround every time a TSB is executed.
The work around is to issue two TSB consecutively.
NOTE: This errata is defined as LOCAL_CPU_ERRATUM, implying
that a late CPU could be blocked from booting if it is the
first CPU that requires the workaround. This is because we
do not allow setting a cpu_hwcaps after the SMP boot. The
other alternative is to use "this_cpu_has_cap()" instead
of the faster system wide check, which may be a bit of an
overhead, given we may have to do this in nvhe KVM host
before a guest entry.

Arm Neoverse-N2 and the Cortex-A710 cores are affected
by a CPU erratum where the TRBE will overwrite the trace buffer
in FILL mode. The TRBE doesn't stop (as expected in FILL mode)
when it reaches the limit and wraps to the base to continue
writing upto 3 cache lines. This will overwrite any trace that
was written previously.
Add the Neoverse-N2 erratum(#2139208) and Cortex-A710 erratum
(#2119858) to the detection logic.
This will be used by the TRBE driver in later patches to work
around the issue. The detection has been kept with the core
arm64 errata framework list to make sure :
- We don't duplicate the framework in TRBE driver
- The errata detection is advertised like the rest
of the CPU errata.
Note that the Kconfig entries are not fully active until the
TRBE driver implements the work around.

It is amazing that we never documented this absolutely basic

Patch series "userfaultfd: do not untag user pointers", v5.
If a user program uses userfaultfd on ranges of heap memory, it may end
up passing a tagged pointer to the kernel in the range.start field of
the UFFDIO_REGISTER ioctl. This can happen when using an MTE-capable
allocator, or on Android if using the Tagged Pointers feature for MTE
readiness [1].
When a fault subsequently occurs, the tag is stripped from the fault
address returned to the application in the fault.address field of struct
uffd_msg. However, from the application's perspective, the tagged
address *is* the memory address, so if the application is unaware of
memory tags, it may get confused by receiving an address that is, from
its point of view, outside of the bounds of the allocation. We observed
this behavior in the kselftest for userfaultfd [2] but other
applications could have the same problem.
Address this by not untagging pointers passed to the userfaultfd ioctls.
Instead, let the system call fail. Also change the kselftest to use
mmap so that it doesn't encounter this problem.
[1] https://source.android.com/devices/tech/debug/tagged-pointers
[2] tools/testing/selftests/vm/userfaultfd.c
This patch (of 2):
Do not untag pointers passed to the userfaultfd ioctls. Instead, let
the system call fail. This will provide an early indication of problems
with tag-unaware userspace code instead of letting the code get confused
later, and is consistent with how we decided to handle brk/mmap/mremap
in commit dcde237319e6 ("mm: Avoid creating virtual address aliases in
brk()/mmap()/mremap()"), as well as being consistent with the existing
tagged address ABI documentation relating to how ioctl arguments are
handled.
The code change is a revert of commit 7d0325749a6c ("userfaultfd: untag
user pointers") plus some fixups to some additional calls to
validate_range that have appeared since then.

We do not currently document the requirements for configuration of the
SVE system registers when booting the kernel, let's do so for completeness.
We don't have a hard requirement that the vector lengths configured on
different CPUs on initial boot be consistent since we have logic to
constrain to the minimum supported value but we will reject any late CPUs
which can't support the current maximum and introducing the concept of
late CPUs seemed more complex than was useful so we require that all CPUs
use the same value.

Currently we require that a number of system registers be configured to
disable traps when starting the kernel. Add an explicit note that the
requirement is that the system behave as if the traps are disabled so
transparent handling of the traps is fine, this should be implicit for
people familiar with working with standards documents but it doesn't hurt
to be explicit.

Prior to commit dcde237319e6 ("mm: Avoid creating virtual address
aliases in brk()/mmap()/mremap()"), the kernel allowed tagged addresses
to be passed to the brk/mmap/mremap() syscalls. This relaxation was

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
- MTE asynchronous support for KASan. Previously only synchronous
(slower) mode was supported. Asynchronous is faster but does not
allow precise identification of the illegal access.
- Run kernel mode SIMD with softirqs disabled. This allows using NEON
in softirq context for crypto performance improvements. The
conditional yield support is modified to take softirqs into account
and reduce the latency.
- Preparatory patches for Apple M1: handle CPUs that only have the VHE
mode available (host kernel running at EL2), add FIQ support.
- arm64 perf updates: support for HiSilicon PA and SLLC PMU drivers,
new functions for the HiSilicon HHA and L3C PMU, cleanups.
- Re-introduce support for execute-only user permissions but only when
the EPAN (Enhanced Privileged Access Never) architecture feature is
available.
- Disable fine-grained traps at boot and improve the documented boot
requirements.
- Support CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC on arm64 (only with KASAN_GENERIC).
- Add hierarchical eXecute Never permissions for all page tables.
- Add arm64 prctl(PR_PAC_{SET,GET}_ENABLED_KEYS) allowing user programs
to control which PAC keys are enabled in a particular task.
- arm64 kselftests for BTI and some improvements to the MTE tests.
- Minor improvements to the compat vdso and sigpage.
- Miscellaneous cleanups.

This change introduces a prctl that allows the user program to control
which PAC keys are enabled in a particular task. The main reason
why this is useful is to enable a userspace ABI that uses PAC to
sign and authenticate function pointers and other pointers exposed
outside of the function, while still allowing binaries conforming
to the ABI to interoperate with legacy binaries that do not sign or
authenticate pointers.
The idea is that a dynamic loader or early startup code would issue
this prctl very early after establishing that a process may load legacy
binaries, but before executing any PAC instructions.
This change adds a small amount of overhead to kernel entry and exit
due to additional required instruction sequences.
On a DragonBoard 845c (Cortex-A75) with the powersave governor, the
overhead of similar instruction sequences was measured as 4.9ns when
simulating the common case where IA is left enabled, or 43.7ns when
simulating the uncommon case where IA is disabled. These numbers can
be seen as the worst case scenario, since in more realistic scenarios
a better performing governor would be used and a newer chip would be
used that would support PAC unlike Cortex-A75 and would be expected
to be faster than Cortex-A75.
On an Apple M1 under a hypervisor, the overhead of the entry/exit
instruction sequences introduced by this patch was measured as 0.3ns
in the case where IA is left enabled, and 33.0ns in the case where
IA is disabled.
