CONT_PTE_SHIFT actually depends on CONFIG_ARM64_CONT_SHIFT. It's
reasonable to reflect the dependency:
* This renames CONFIG_ARM64_CONT_SHIFT to CONFIG_ARM64_CONT_PTE_SHIFT,
so that we can introduce CONFIG_ARM64_CONT_PMD_SHIFT later.
* CONT_{SHIFT, SIZE, MASK}, defined in page-def.h are removed as they
are not used by anyone.
* CONT_PTE_SHIFT is determined by CONFIG_ARM64_CONT_PTE_SHIFT.

The KVM page-table code is intricately tied into the kernel page-table
code and re-uses the pte/pmd/pud/p4d/pgd macros directly in an attempt
to reduce code duplication. Unfortunately, the reality is that there is
an awful lot of code required to make this work, and at the end of the
day you're limited to creating page-tables with the same configuration
as the host kernel. Furthermore, lifting the page-table code to run
directly at EL2 on a non-VHE system (as we plan to to do in future
patches) is practically impossible due to the number of dependencies it
has on the core kernel.
Introduce a framework for walking Armv8 page-tables configured
independently from the host kernel.

pmd_present() and pmd_trans_huge() are expected to behave in the following
manner during various phases of a given PMD. It is derived from a previous
detailed discussion on this topic [1] and present THP documentation [2].
pmd_present(pmd):
- Returns true if pmd refers to system RAM with a valid pmd_page(pmd)
- Returns false if pmd refers to a migration or swap entry
pmd_trans_huge(pmd):
- Returns true if pmd refers to system RAM and is a trans huge mapping
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
| PMD states | pmd_present | pmd_trans_huge |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Mapped | Yes | Yes |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Splitting | Yes | Yes |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Migration/Swap | No | No |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The problem:
PMD is first invalidated with pmdp_invalidate() before it's splitting. This
invalidation clears PMD_SECT_VALID as below.
PMD Split -> pmdp_invalidate() -> pmd_mkinvalid -> Clears PMD_SECT_VALID
Once PMD_SECT_VALID gets cleared, it results in pmd_present() return false
on the PMD entry. It will need another bit apart from PMD_SECT_VALID to re-
affirm pmd_present() as true during the THP split process. To comply with
above mentioned semantics, pmd_trans_huge() should also check pmd_present()
first before testing presence of an actual transparent huge mapping.
The solution:
Ideally PMD_TYPE_SECT should have been used here instead. But it shares the
bit position with PMD_SECT_VALID which is used for THP invalidation. Hence
it will not be there for pmd_present() check after pmdp_invalidate().
A new software defined PMD_PRESENT_INVALID (bit 59) can be set on the PMD
entry during invalidation which can help pmd_present() return true and in
recognizing the fact that it still points to memory.
This bit is transient. During the split process it will be overridden by a
page table page representing normal pages in place of erstwhile huge page.
Other pmdp_invalidate() callers always write a fresh PMD value on the entry
overriding this transient PMD_PRESENT_INVALID bit, which makes it safe.

When swapping pages out to disk it is necessary to save any tags that
have been set, and restore when swapping back in. Make use of the new
page flag (PG_ARCH_2, locally named PG_mte_tagged) to identify pages
with tags. When swapping out these pages the tags are stored in memory
and later restored when the pages are brought back in. Because shmem can
swap pages back in without restoring the userspace PTE it is also
necessary to add a hook for shmem.

Add support for bulk setting/getting of the MTE tags in a tracee's
address space at 'addr' in the ptrace() syscall prototype. 'data' points
to a struct iovec in the tracer's address space with iov_base
representing the address of a tracer's buffer of length iov_len. The
tags to be copied to/from the tracer's buffer are stored as one tag per
byte.
On successfully copying at least one tag, ptrace() returns 0 and updates
the tracer's iov_len with the number of tags copied. In case of error,
either -EIO or -EFAULT is returned, trying to follow the ptrace() man
page.
Note that the tag copying functions are not performance critical,
therefore they lack optimisations found in typical memory copy routines.

By default, even if PROT_MTE is set on a memory range, there is no tag
check fault reporting (SIGSEGV). Introduce a set of option to the
exiting prctl(PR_SET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL) to allow user control of the tag
check fault mode:
PR_MTE_TCF_NONE - no reporting (default)
PR_MTE_TCF_SYNC - synchronous tag check fault reporting
PR_MTE_TCF_ASYNC - asynchronous tag check fault reporting
These options translate into the corresponding SCTLR_EL1.TCF0 bitfield,
context-switched by the kernel. Note that the kernel accesses to the
user address space (e.g. read() system call) are not checked if the user
thread tag checking mode is PR_MTE_TCF_NONE or PR_MTE_TCF_ASYNC. If the
tag checking mode is PR_MTE_TCF_SYNC, the kernel makes a best effort to
check its user address accesses, however it cannot always guarantee it.

Make use of the newly introduced arch_validate_flags() hook to

To enable tagging on a memory range, the user must explicitly opt in via
a new PROT_MTE flag passed to mmap() or mprotect(). Since this is a new
memory type in the AttrIndx field of a pte, simplify the or'ing of these
bits over the protection_map[] attributes by making MT_NORMAL index 0.
There are two conditions for arch_vm_get_page_prot() to return the
MT_NORMAL_TAGGED memory type: (1) the user requested it via PROT_MTE,
registered as VM_MTE in the vm_flags, and (2) the vma supports MTE,
decided during the mmap() call (only) and registered as VM_MTE_ALLOWED.
arch_calc_vm_prot_bits() is responsible for registering the user request
as VM_MTE. The newly introduced arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() sets
VM_MTE_ALLOWED if the mapping is MAP_ANONYMOUS. An MTE-capable
filesystem (RAM-based) may be able to set VM_MTE_ALLOWED during its
mmap() file ops call.
In addition, update VM_DATA_DEFAULT_FLAGS to allow mprotect(PROT_MTE) on
stack or brk area.
The Linux mmap() syscall currently ignores unknown PROT_* flags. In the
presence of MTE, an mmap(PROT_MTE) on a file which does not support MTE
will not report an error and the memory will not be mapped as Normal
Tagged. For consistency, mprotect(PROT_MTE) will not report an error
either if the memory range does not support MTE. Two subsequent patches
in the series will propose tightening of this behaviour.

Once user space is given access to tagged memory, the kernel must be
able to clear/save/restore tags visible to the user. This is done via
the linear mapping, therefore map it as such. The new MT_NORMAL_TAGGED
index for MAIR_EL1 is initially mapped as Normal memory and later
changed to Normal Tagged via the cpufeature infrastructure. From a
mismatched attribute aliases perspective, the Tagged memory is
considered a permission and it won't lead to undefined behaviour.

AT instructions do a translation table walk and return the result, or
the fault in PAR_EL1. KVM uses these to find the IPA when the value is
not provided by the CPU in HPFAR_EL1.
If a translation table walk causes an external abort it is taken as an
exception, even if it was due to an AT instruction. (DDI0487F.a's D5.2.11
"Synchronous faults generated by address translation instructions")
While we previously made KVM resilient to exceptions taken due to AT
instructions, the device access causes mismatched attributes, and may
occur speculatively. Prevent this, by forbidding a walk through memory
described as device at stage2. Now such AT instructions will report a
stage2 fault.
Such a fault will cause KVM to restart the guest. If the AT instructions
always walk the page tables, but guest execution uses the translation cached
in the TLB, the guest can't make forward progress until the TLB entry is
evicted. This isn't a problem, as since commit 5dcd0fdbb4 ("KVM: arm64:
Defer guest entry when an asynchronous exception is pending"), KVM will
return to the host to process IRQs allowing the rest of the system to keep
running.

KVM doesn't expect any synchronous exceptions when executing, any such
exception leads to a panic(). AT instructions access the guest page
tables, and can cause a synchronous external abort to be taken.
The arm-arm is unclear on what should happen if the guest has configured
the hardware update of the access-flag, and a memory type in TCR_EL1 that
does not support atomic operations. B2.2.6 "Possible implementation
restrictions on using atomic instructions" from DDI0487F.a lists
synchronous external abort as a possible behaviour of atomic instructions
that target memory that isn't writeback cacheable, but the page table
walker may behave differently.
Make KVM robust to synchronous exceptions caused by AT instructions.
Add a get_user() style helper for AT instructions that returns -EFAULT
if an exception was generated.
While KVM's version of the exception table mixes synchronous and
asynchronous exceptions, only one of these can occur at each location.
Re-enter the guest when the AT instructions take an exception on the
assumption the guest will take the same exception. This isn't guaranteed
to make forward progress, as the AT instructions may always walk the page
tables, but guest execution may use the translation cached in the TLB.
This isn't a problem, as since commit 5dcd0fdbb4 ("KVM: arm64: Defer guest

KVM has a one instruction window where it will allow an SError exception
to be consumed by the hypervisor without treating it as a hypervisor bug.
This is used to consume asynchronous external abort that were caused by
the guest.
As we are about to add another location that survives unexpected exceptions,
generalise this code to make it behave like the host's extable.
KVM's version has to be mapped to EL2 to be accessible on nVHE systems.
The SError vaxorcism code is a one instruction window, so has two entries
in the extable. Because the KVM code is copied for VHE and nVHE, we end up
with four entries, half of which correspond with code that isn't mapped.

Pull timekeeping updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of timekeeping/VDSO updates:
- Preparatory work to allow S390 to switch over to the generic VDSO
implementation.
S390 requires that the VDSO data pointer is handed in to the
counter read function when time namespace support is enabled.
Adding the pointer is a NOOP for all other architectures because
the compiler is supposed to optimize that out when it is unused in
the architecture specific inline. The change also solved a similar
problem for MIPS which fortunately has time namespaces not yet
enabled.
S390 needs to update clock related VDSO data independent of the
timekeeping updates. This was solved so far with yet another
sequence counter in the S390 implementation. A better solution is
to utilize the already existing VDSO sequence count for this. The
core code now exposes helper functions which allow to serialize
against the timekeeper code and against concurrent readers.
S390 needs extra data for their clock readout function. The initial
common VDSO data structure did not provide a way to add that. It
now has an embedded architecture specific struct embedded which
defaults to an empty struct.
Doing this now avoids tree dependencies and conflicts post rc1 and
allows all other architectures which work on generic VDSO support
to work from a common upstream base.
