A 'struct device_type' instance can carry default attributes for the
device. Use this facility to remove the export of
nd_device_attribute_group and put the responsibility on the core rather
than leaf implementations to define this attribute.
For regions this creates a new nd_region_attribute_groups[] added to the
per-region device-type instances.

This ports the SUPERCOP implementation for usage in kernel space. In
addition to the usual header, macro, and style changes required for
kernel space, it makes a few small changes to the code:
- The stack alignment is relaxed to 16 bytes.
- Superfluous mov statements have been removed.
- ldr for constants has been replaced with movw.
- ldreq has been replaced with moveq.
- The str epilogue has been made more idiomatic.
- SIMD registers are not pushed and popped at the beginning and end.
- The prologue and epilogue have been made idiomatic.
- A hole has been removed from the stack, saving 32 bytes.
- We write-back the base register whenever possible for vld1.8.
- Some multiplications have been reordered for better A7 performance.
There are more opportunities for cleanup, since this code is from qhasm,
which doesn't always do the most opportune thing. But even prior to
extensive hand optimizations, this code delivers significant performance
improvements (given in get_cycles() per call):

This comes from Dan Bernstein and Peter Schwabe's public domain NEON
code, and is included here in raw form so that subsequent commits that
fix these up for the kernel can see how it has changed. This code does
have some entirely cosmetic formatting differences, adding indentation
and so forth, so that when we actually port it for use in the kernel in
the subsequent commit, it's obvious what's changed in the process.
This code originates from SUPERCOP 20180818, available at

This implementation is the fastest available x86_64 implementation, and
unlike Sandy2x, it doesn't requie use of the floating point registers at
all. Instead it makes use of BMI2 and ADX, available on recent

Faz-Hernández with contributions (upstream) from Samuel Neves and me,
in addition to further changes in the kernel implementation from us.

In order to use 128-bit integer arithmetic in C code, the architecture
needs to have declared support for it by setting ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128,
and it requires a version of the toolchain that supports this at build
time. This is why all existing tests for ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128 also test
whether __SIZEOF_INT128__ is defined, since this is only the case for
compilers that can support 128-bit integers.
Let's fold this additional test into the Kconfig declaration of
ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128 so that we can also use the symbol in Makefiles,
e.g., to decide whether a certain object needs to be included in the
first place.

This integrates the accelerated MIPS 32r2 implementation of ChaCha
into both the API and library interfaces of the kernel crypto stack.
The significance of this is that, in addition to becoming available
as an accelerated library implementation, it can also be used by
existing crypto API code such as Adiantum (for block encryption on
ultra low performance cores) or IPsec using chacha20poly1305. These
are use cases that have already opted into using the abstract crypto
API. In order to support Adiantum, the core assembler routine has
been adapted to take the round count as a function argument rather
than hardcoding it to 20.

Depend on the generic ChaCha library routines instead of pulling in the

managing the dependencies between the generic library, generic driver,
accelerated library and driver more complicated.
While at it, drop the logic to prefer the scalar code on short inputs.
Turning the NEON on and off is cheap these days, and one major use case
for ChaCha20 is ChaCha20-Poly1305, which is guaranteed to hit the scalar
path upon every invocation (when doing the Poly1305 nonce generation)

In preparation of extending the x86 ChaCha driver to also expose the ChaCha
library interface, drop the dependency on the chacha_generic crypto driver
as a non-SIMD fallback, and depend on the generic ChaCha library directly.
This way, we only pull in the code we actually need, without registering
a set of ChaCha skciphers that we will never use.
Since turning the FPU on and off is cheap these days, simplify the SIMD
routine by dropping the per-page yield, which makes for a cleaner switch
to the library API as well. This also allows use to invoke the skcipher
walk routines in non-atomic mode.

Currently, our generic ChaCha implementation consists of a permute
function in lib/chacha.c that operates on the 64-byte ChaCha state
directly [and which is always included into the core kernel since it
is used by the /dev/random driver], and the crypto API plumbing to
expose it as a skcipher.
In order to support in-kernel users that need the ChaCha streamcipher
but have no need [or tolerance] for going through the abstractions of
the crypto API, let's expose the streamcipher bits via a library API
as well, in a way that permits the implementation to be superseded by
an architecture specific one if provided.
So move the streamcipher code into a separate module in lib/crypto,
and expose the init() and crypt() routines to users of the library.

Since MDS and TAA mitigations are inter-related for processors that are

be printed in the kernel log:

For MDS vulnerable processors with TSX support, enabling either MDS or
TAA mitigations will enable the use of VERW to flush internal processor
buffers at the right code path. IOW, they are either both mitigated
or both not. However, if the command line options are inconsistent,
the vulnerabilites sysfs files may not report the mitigation status
correctly.
For example, with only the "mds=off" option:
vulnerabilities/mds:Vulnerable; SMT vulnerable
vulnerabilities/tsx_async_abort:Mitigation: Clear CPU buffers; SMT vulnerable
The mds vulnerabilities file has wrong status in this case. Similarly,
the taa vulnerability file will be wrong with mds mitigation on, but
taa off.
Change taa_select_mitigation() to sync up the two mitigation status
and have them turned off if both "mds=off" and "tsx_async_abort=off"
are present.
Update documentation to emphasize the fact that both "mds=off" and
"tsx_async_abort=off" have to be specified together for processors that
are affected by both TAA and MDS to be effective.

On platforms implementing CPU power management, the CPUidle subsystem
can allow CPUs to enter idle states where local timers logic is lost on power
down. To keep the software timers functional the kernel relies on an
always-on broadcast timer to be present in the platform to relay the
interrupt signalling the timer expiries.
For platforms implementing CPU core gating that do not implement an always-on
HW timer or implement it in a broken way, this patch adds code to initialize
the kernel hrtimer based clock event device upon boot (which can be chosen as
tick broadcast device by the kernel).
It relies on a dynamically chosen CPU to be always powered-up. This CPU then
relays the timer interrupt to CPUs in deep-idle states through its HW local
timer device.
Having a CPU always-on has implications on power management platform
capabilities and makes CPUidle suboptimal, since at least a CPU is kept
always in a shallow idle state by the kernel to relay timer interrupts,
but at least leaves the kernel with a functional system with some working
power management capabilities.
The hrtimer based clock event device is unconditionally registered, but
has the lowest possible rating such that any broadcast-capable HW clock
event device present will be chosen in preference as the tick broadcast
device.

When the default processor handling was added to the function
cpu_v7_spectre_init() it only excluded other ARM implemented processor
cores. The Broadcom Brahma B53 core is not implemented by ARM so it
ended up falling through into the set of processors that attempt to use
the ARM_SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_1 service to harden the branch predictor.
Since this workaround is not necessary for the Brahma-B53 this commit
explicitly checks for it and prevents it from applying a branch

re-introduced the flags saving on context switch to prevent AC leakage.
The pushf/popf instructions are right among the callee saved register
section, so the comment explaining the save/restore is not entirely
correct.
Add a seperate comment to pushf/popf explaining the reason.

If iopl() is disabled, then providing ioperm() does not make much sense.
Rename the config option and disable/enable both syscalls with it. Guard
the code with #ifdefs where appropriate.

The IOPL emulation via the I/O bitmap is sufficient. Remove the legacy
cruft dealing with the (e)flags based IOPL mechanism.

The access to the full I/O port range can be also provided by the TSS I/O
bitmap, but that would require to copy 8k of data on scheduling in the
task. As shown with the sched out optimization TSS.io_bitmap_base can be
used to switch the incoming task to a preallocated I/O bitmap which has all
bits zero, i.e. allows access to all I/O ports.
Implementing this allows to provide an iopl() emulation mode which restricts
the IOPL level 3 permissions to I/O port access but removes the STI/CLI
permission which is coming with the hardware IOPL mechansim.
Provide a config option to switch IOPL to emulation mode, make it the
default and while at it also provide an option to disable IOPL completely.

The comment for the sys_iopl() implementation is outdated and actively
misleading in some parts. Fix it up.

The I/O bitmap is duplicated on fork. That's wasting memory and slows down
fork. There is no point to do so. As long as the bitmap is not modified it
can be shared between threads and processes.
Add a refcount and just share it on fork. If a task modifies the bitmap
then it has to do the duplication if and only if it is shared.

If ioperm() results in a bitmap with all bits set (no permissions to any
I/O port), then handling that bitmap on context switch and exit to user
mode is pointless. Drop it.
Move the bitmap exit handling to the ioport code and reuse it for both the
thread exit path and dropping it. This allows to reuse this code for the
upcoming iopl() emulation.

There is no point to update the TSS bitmap for tasks which use I/O bitmaps
on every context switch. It's enough to update it right before exiting to
user space.
That reduces the context switch bitmap handling to invalidating the io
bitmap base offset in the TSS when the outgoing task has TIF_IO_BITMAP
set. The invaldiation is done on purpose when a task with an IO bitmap
switches out to prevent any possible leakage of an activated IO bitmap.
It also removes the requirement to update the tasks bitmap atomically in
ioperm().

Add a globally unique sequence number which is incremented when ioperm() is
changing the I/O bitmap of a task. Store the new sequence number in the
io_bitmap structure and compare it with the sequence number of the I/O
bitmap which was last loaded on a CPU. Only update the bitmap if the
sequence is different.
That should further reduce the overhead of I/O bitmap scheduling when there
are only a few I/O bitmap users on the system.
The 64bit sequence counter is sufficient. A wraparound of the sequence
counter assuming an ioperm() call every nanosecond would require about 584
years of uptime.

No point in having all the data in thread_struct, especially as upcoming
changes add more.
Make the bitmap in the new struct accessible as array of longs and as array
of characters via a union, so both the bitmap functions and the update
logic can avoid type casts.

There is no requirement to update the TSS I/O bitmap when a thread using it is
scheduled out and the incoming thread does not use it.
For the permission check based on the TSS I/O bitmap the CPU calculates the memory
location of the I/O bitmap by the address of the TSS and the io_bitmap_base member
of the tss_struct. The easiest way to invalidate the I/O bitmap is to switch the
offset to an address outside of the TSS limit.
If an I/O instruction is issued from user space the TSS limit causes #GP to be
raised in the same was as valid I/O bitmap with all bits set to 1 would do.
This removes the extra work when an I/O bitmap using task is scheduled out
and puts the burden on the rare I/O bitmap users when they are scheduled
in.
