Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - Initial support for the ARMv9 Scalable Matrix Extension (SME).

   SME takes the approach used for vectors in SVE and extends this to
   provide architectural support for matrix operations. No KVM support
   yet, SME is disabled in guests.

 - Support for crashkernel reservations above ZONE_DMA via the
   'crashkernel=X,high' command line option.

 - btrfs search_ioctl() fix for live-lock with sub-page faults.

 - arm64 perf updates: support for the Hisilicon "CPA" PMU for
   monitoring coherent I/O traffic, support for Arm's CMN-650 and
   CMN-700 interconnect PMUs, minor driver fixes, kerneldoc cleanup.

 - Kselftest updates for SME, BTI, MTE.

 - Automatic generation of the system register macros from a 'sysreg'
   file describing the register bitfields.

 - Update the type of the function argument holding the ESR_ELx register
   value to unsigned long to match the architecture register size
   (originally 32-bit but extended since ARMv8.0).

 - stacktrace cleanups.

 - ftrace cleanups.

 - Miscellaneous updates, most notably: arm64-specific huge_ptep_get(),
   avoid executable mappings in kexec/hibernate code, drop TLB flushing
   from get_clear_flush() (and rename it to get_clear_contig()),
   ARCH_NR_GPIO bumped to 2048 for ARCH_APPLE.

+===================================================
+Scalable Matrix Extension support for AArch64 Linux
+===================================================
+
+This document outlines briefly the interface provided to userspace by Linux in
+order to support use of the ARM Scalable Matrix Extension (SME).
+
+This is an outline of the most important features and issues only and not
+intended to be exhaustive.  It should be read in conjunction with the SVE
+documentation in sve.rst which provides details on the Streaming SVE mode
+included in SME.
+
+This document does not aim to describe the SME architecture or programmer's
+model.  To aid understanding, a minimal description of relevant programmer's
+model features for SME is included in Appendix A.
+
+
+1.  General
+-----------
+
+* PSTATE.SM, PSTATE.ZA, the streaming mode vector length, the ZA
+  register state and TPIDR2_EL0 are tracked per thread.
+
+* The presence of SME is reported to userspace via HWCAP2_SME in the aux vector
+  AT_HWCAP2 entry.  Presence of this flag implies the presence of the SME
+  instructions and registers, and the Linux-specific system interfaces
+  described in this document.  SME is reported in /proc/cpuinfo as "sme".
+
+* Support for the execution of SME instructions in userspace can also be
+  detected by reading the CPU ID register ID_AA64PFR1_EL1 using an MRS
+  instruction, and checking that the value of the SME field is nonzero. [3]
+
+  It does not guarantee the presence of the system interfaces described in the
+  following sections: software that needs to verify that those interfaces are
+  present must check for HWCAP2_SME instead.
+
+* There are a number of optional SME features, presence of these is reported
+  through AT_HWCAP2 through:
+
+	HWCAP2_SME_I16I64
+	HWCAP2_SME_F64F64
+	HWCAP2_SME_I8I32
+	HWCAP2_SME_F16F32
+	HWCAP2_SME_B16F32
+	HWCAP2_SME_F32F32
+	HWCAP2_SME_FA64
+
+  This list may be extended over time as the SME architecture evolves.
+
+  These extensions are also reported via the CPU ID register ID_AA64SMFR0_EL1,
+  which userspace can read using an MRS instruction.  See elf_hwcaps.txt and
+  cpu-feature-registers.txt for details.
+
+* Debuggers should restrict themselves to interacting with the target via the
+  NT_ARM_SVE, NT_ARM_SSVE and NT_ARM_ZA regsets.  The recommended way
+  of detecting support for these regsets is to connect to a target process
+  first and then attempt a
+
+	ptrace(PTRACE_GETREGSET, pid, NT_ARM_<regset>, &iov).
+
+* Whenever ZA register values are exchanged in memory between userspace and
+  the kernel, the register value is encoded in memory as a series of horizontal
+  vectors from 0 to VL/8-1 stored in the same endianness invariant format as is
+  used for SVE vectors.
+
+* On thread creation TPIDR2_EL0 is preserved unless CLONE_SETTLS is specified,
+  in which case it is set to 0.
+
+2.  Vector lengths
+------------------
+
+SME defines a second vector length similar to the SVE vector length which is
+controls the size of the streaming mode SVE vectors and the ZA matrix array.
+The ZA matrix is square with each side having as many bytes as a streaming
+mode SVE vector.
+
+
+3.  Sharing of streaming and non-streaming mode SVE state
+---------------------------------------------------------
+
+It is implementation defined which if any parts of the SVE state are shared
+between streaming and non-streaming modes.  When switching between modes
+via software interfaces such as ptrace if no register content is provided as
+part of switching no state will be assumed to be shared and everything will
+be zeroed.
+
+
+4.  System call behaviour
+-------------------------
+
+* On syscall PSTATE.ZA is preserved, if PSTATE.ZA==1 then the contents of the
+  ZA matrix are preserved.
+
+* On syscall PSTATE.SM will be cleared and the SVE registers will be handled
+  as per the standard SVE ABI.
+
+* Neither the SVE registers nor ZA are used to pass arguments to or receive
+  results from any syscall.
+
+* On process creation (eg, clone()) the newly created process will have
+  PSTATE.SM cleared.
+
+* All other SME state of a thread, including the currently configured vector
+  length, the state of the PR_SME_VL_INHERIT flag, and the deferred vector
+  length (if any), is preserved across all syscalls, subject to the specific
+  exceptions for execve() described in section 6.
+
+
+5.  Signal handling
+-------------------
+
+* Signal handlers are invoked with streaming mode and ZA disabled.
+
+* A new signal frame record za_context encodes the ZA register contents on
+  signal delivery. [1]
+
+* The signal frame record for ZA always contains basic metadata, in particular
+  the thread's vector length (in za_context.vl).
+
+* The ZA matrix may or may not be included in the record, depending on
+  the value of PSTATE.ZA.  The registers are present if and only if:
+  za_context.head.size >= ZA_SIG_CONTEXT_SIZE(sve_vq_from_vl(za_context.vl))
+  in which case PSTATE.ZA == 1.
+
+* If matrix data is present, the remainder of the record has a vl-dependent
+  size and layout.  Macros ZA_SIG_* are defined [1] to facilitate access to
+  them.
+
+* The matrix is stored as a series of horizontal vectors in the same format as
+  is used for SVE vectors.
+
+* If the ZA context is too big to fit in sigcontext.__reserved[], then extra
+  space is allocated on the stack, an extra_context record is written in
+  __reserved[] referencing this space.  za_context is then written in the
+  extra space.  Refer to [1] for further details about this mechanism.
+
+
+5.  Signal return
+-----------------
+
+When returning from a signal handler:
+
+* If there is no za_context record in the signal frame, or if the record is
+  present but contains no register data as described in the previous section,
+  then ZA is disabled.
+
+* If za_context is present in the signal frame and contains matrix data then
+  PSTATE.ZA is set to 1 and ZA is populated with the specified data.
+
+* The vector length cannot be changed via signal return.  If za_context.vl in
+  the signal frame does not match the current vector length, the signal return
+  attempt is treated as illegal, resulting in a forced SIGSEGV.
+
+
+6.  prctl extensions
+--------------------
+
+Some new prctl() calls are added to allow programs to manage the SME vector
+length:
+
+prctl(PR_SME_SET_VL, unsigned long arg)
+
+    Sets the vector length of the calling thread and related flags, where
+    arg == vl | flags.  Other threads of the calling process are unaffected.
+
+    vl is the desired vector length, where sve_vl_valid(vl) must be true.
+
+    flags:
+
+	PR_SME_VL_INHERIT
+
+	    Inherit the current vector length across execve().  Otherwise, the
+	    vector length is reset to the system default at execve().  (See
+	    Section 9.)
+
+	PR_SME_SET_VL_ONEXEC
+
+	    Defer the requested vector length change until the next execve()
+	    performed by this thread.
+
+	    The effect is equivalent to implicit execution of the following
+	    call immediately after the next execve() (if any) by the thread:
+
+		prctl(PR_SME_SET_VL, arg & ~PR_SME_SET_VL_ONEXEC)
+
+	    This allows launching of a new program with a different vector
+	    length, while avoiding runtime side effects in the caller.
+
+	    Without PR_SME_SET_VL_ONEXEC, the requested change takes effect
+	    immediately.
+
+
+    Return value: a nonnegative on success, or a negative value on error:
+	EINVAL: SME not supported, invalid vector length requested, or
+	    invalid flags.
+
+
+    On success:
+
+    * Either the calling thread's vector length or the deferred vector length
+      to be applied at the next execve() by the thread (dependent on whether
+      PR_SME_SET_VL_ONEXEC is present in arg), is set to the largest value
+      supported by the system that is less than or equal to vl.  If vl ==
+      SVE_VL_MAX, the value set will be the largest value supported by the
+      system.
+
+    * Any previously outstanding deferred vector length change in the calling
+      thread is cancelled.
+
+    * The returned value describes the resulting configuration, encoded as for
+      PR_SME_GET_VL.  The vector length reported in this value is the new
+      current vector length for this thread if PR_SME_SET_VL_ONEXEC was not
+      present in arg; otherwise, the reported vector length is the deferred
+      vector length that will be applied at the next execve() by the calling
+      thread.
+
+    * Changing the vector length causes all of ZA, P0..P15, FFR and all bits of
+      Z0..Z31 except for Z0 bits [127:0] .. Z31 bits [127:0] to become
+      unspecified, including both streaming and non-streaming SVE state.
+      Calling PR_SME_SET_VL with vl equal to the thread's current vector
+      length, or calling PR_SME_SET_VL with the PR_SVE_SET_VL_ONEXEC flag,
+      does not constitute a change to the vector length for this purpose.
+
+    * Changing the vector length causes PSTATE.ZA and PSTATE.SM to be cleared.
+      Calling PR_SME_SET_VL with vl equal to the thread's current vector
+      length, or calling PR_SME_SET_VL with the PR_SVE_SET_VL_ONEXEC flag,
+      does not constitute a change to the vector length for this purpose.
+
+
+prctl(PR_SME_GET_VL)
+
+    Gets the vector length of the calling thread.
+
+    The following flag may be OR-ed into the result:
+
+	PR_SME_VL_INHERIT
+
+	    Vector length will be inherited across execve().
+
+    There is no way to determine whether there is an outstanding deferred
+    vector length change (which would only normally be the case between a
+    fork() or vfork() and the corresponding execve() in typical use).
+
+    To extract the vector length from the result, bitwise and it with
+    PR_SME_VL_LEN_MASK.
+
+    Return value: a nonnegative value on success, or a negative value on error:
+	EINVAL: SME not supported.
+
+
+7.  ptrace extensions
+---------------------
+
+* A new regset NT_ARM_SSVE is defined for access to streaming mode SVE
+  state via PTRACE_GETREGSET and  PTRACE_SETREGSET, this is documented in
+  sve.rst.
+
+* A new regset NT_ARM_ZA is defined for ZA state for access to ZA state via
+  PTRACE_GETREGSET and PTRACE_SETREGSET.
+
+  Refer to [2] for definitions.
+
+The regset data starts with struct user_za_header, containing:
+
+    size
+
+	Size of the complete regset, in bytes.
+	This depends on vl and possibly on other things in the future.
+
+	If a call to PTRACE_GETREGSET requests less data than the value of
+	size, the caller can allocate a larger buffer and retry in order to
+	read the complete regset.
+
+    max_size
+
+	Maximum size in bytes that the regset can grow to for the target
+	thread.  The regset won't grow bigger than this even if the target
+	thread changes its vector length etc.
+
+    vl
+
+	Target thread's current streaming vector length, in bytes.
+
+    max_vl
+
+	Maximum possible streaming vector length for the target thread.
+
+    flags
+
+	Zero or more of the following flags, which have the same
+	meaning and behaviour as the corresponding PR_SET_VL_* flags:
+
+	    SME_PT_VL_INHERIT
+
+	    SME_PT_VL_ONEXEC (SETREGSET only).
+
+* The effects of changing the vector length and/or flags are equivalent to
+  those documented for PR_SME_SET_VL.
+
+  The caller must make a further GETREGSET call if it needs to know what VL is
+  actually set by SETREGSET, unless is it known in advance that the requested
+  VL is supported.
+
+* The size and layout of the payload depends on the header fields.  The
+  SME_PT_ZA_*() macros are provided to facilitate access to the data.
+
+* In either case, for SETREGSET it is permissible to omit the payload, in which
+  case the vector length and flags are changed and PSTATE.ZA is set to 0
+  (along with any consequences of those changes).  If a payload is provided
+  then PSTATE.ZA will be set to 1.
+
+* For SETREGSET, if the requested VL is not supported, the effect will be the
+  same as if the payload were omitted, except that an EIO error is reported.
+  No attempt is made to translate the payload data to the correct layout
+  for the vector length actually set.  It is up to the caller to translate the
+  payload layout for the actual VL and retry.
+
+* The effect of writing a partial, incomplete payload is unspecified.
+
+
+8.  ELF coredump extensions
+---------------------------
+
+* NT_ARM_SSVE notes will be added to each coredump for
+  each thread of the dumped process.  The contents will be equivalent to the
+  data that would have been read if a PTRACE_GETREGSET of the corresponding
+  type were executed for each thread when the coredump was generated.
+
+* A NT_ARM_ZA note will be added to each coredump for each thread of the
+  dumped process.  The contents will be equivalent to the data that would have
+  been read if a PTRACE_GETREGSET of NT_ARM_ZA were executed for each thread
+  when the coredump was generated.
+
+
+9.  System runtime configuration
+--------------------------------
+
+* To mitigate the ABI impact of expansion of the signal frame, a policy
+  mechanism is provided for administrators, distro maintainers and developers
+  to set the default vector length for userspace processes:
+
+/proc/sys/abi/sme_default_vector_length
+
+    Writing the text representation of an integer to this file sets the system
+    default vector length to the specified value, unless the value is greater
+    than the maximum vector length supported by the system in which case the
+    default vector length is set to that maximum.
+
+    The result can be determined by reopening the file and reading its
+    contents.
+
+    At boot, the default vector length is initially set to 32 or the maximum
+    supported vector length, whichever is smaller and supported.  This
+    determines the initial vector length of the init process (PID 1).
+
+    Reading this file returns the current system default vector length.
+
+* At every execve() call, the new vector length of the new process is set to
+  the system default vector length, unless
+
+    * PR_SME_VL_INHERIT (or equivalently SME_PT_VL_INHERIT) is set for the
+      calling thread, or
+
+    * a deferred vector length change is pending, established via the
+      PR_SME_SET_VL_ONEXEC flag (or SME_PT_VL_ONEXEC).
+
+* Modifying the system default vector length does not affect the vector length
+  of any existing process or thread that does not make an execve() call.
+
+
+Appendix A.  SME programmer's model (informative)
+=================================================
+
+This section provides a minimal description of the additions made by SVE to the
+ARMv8-A programmer's model that are relevant to this document.
+
+Note: This section is for information only and not intended to be complete or
+to replace any architectural specification.
+
+A.1.  Registers
+---------------
+
+In A64 state, SME adds the following:
+
+* A new mode, streaming mode, in which a subset of the normal FPSIMD and SVE
+  features are available.  When supported EL0 software may enter and leave
+  streaming mode at any time.
+
+  For best system performance it is strongly encouraged for software to enable
+  streaming mode only when it is actively being used.
+
+* A new vector length controlling the size of ZA and the Z registers when in
+  streaming mode, separately to the vector length used for SVE when not in
+  streaming mode.  There is no requirement that either the currently selected
+  vector length or the set of vector lengths supported for the two modes in
+  a given system have any relationship.  The streaming mode vector length
+  is referred to as SVL.
+
+* A new ZA matrix register.  This is a square matrix of SVLxSVL bits.  Most
+  operations on ZA require that streaming mode be enabled but ZA can be
+  enabled without streaming mode in order to load, save and retain data.
+
+  For best system performance it is strongly encouraged for software to enable
+  ZA only when it is actively being used.
+
+* Two new 1 bit fields in PSTATE which may be controlled via the SMSTART and
+  SMSTOP instructions or by access to the SVCR system register:
+
+  * PSTATE.ZA, if this is 1 then the ZA matrix is accessible and has valid
+    data while if it is 0 then ZA can not be accessed.  When PSTATE.ZA is
+    changed from 0 to 1 all bits in ZA are cleared.
+
+  * PSTATE.SM, if this is 1 then the PE is in streaming mode.  When the value
+    of PSTATE.SM is changed then it is implementation defined if the subset
+    of the floating point register bits valid in both modes may be retained.
+    Any other bits will be cleared.
