Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas: "The main theme of this pull request is security covering variants 2 and 3 for arm64. I expect to send additional patches next week covering an improved firmware interface (requires firmware changes) for variant 2 and way for KPTI to be disabled on unaffected CPUs (Cavium's ThunderX doesn't work properly with KPTI enabled because of a hardware erratum). Summary: - Security mitigations: - variant 2: invalidate the branch predictor with a call to secure firmware - variant 3: implement KPTI for arm64 - 52-bit physical address support for arm64 (ARMv8.2) - arm64 support for RAS (firmware first only) and SDEI (software delegated exception interface; allows firmware to inject a RAS error into the OS) - perf support for the ARM DynamIQ Shared Unit PMU - CPUID and HWCAP bits updated for new floating point multiplication instructions in ARMv8.4 - remove some virtual memory layout printks during boot - fix initial page table creation to cope with larger than 32M kernel images when 16K pages are enabled" * tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (104 commits) arm64: Fix TTBR + PAN + 52-bit PA logic in cpu_do_switch_mm arm64: Turn on KPTI only on CPUs that need it arm64: Branch predictor hardening for Cavium ThunderX2 arm64: Run enable method for errata work arounds on late CPUs arm64: Move BP hardening to check_and_switch_context arm64: mm: ignore memory above supported physical address size arm64: kpti: Fix the interaction between ASID switching and software PAN KVM: arm64: Emulate RAS error registers and set HCR_EL2's TERR & TEA KVM: arm64: Handle RAS SErrors from EL2 on guest exit KVM: arm64: Handle RAS SErrors from EL1 on guest exit KVM: arm64: Save ESR_EL2 on guest SError KVM: arm64: Save/Restore guest DISR_EL1 KVM: arm64: Set an impdef ESR for Virtual-SError using VSESR_EL2.

+
+ARM DyanmIQ Shared Unit (DSU) integrates one or more CPU cores
+with a shared L3 memory system, control logic and external interfaces to
+form a multicore cluster. The PMU enables to gather various statistics on
+the operations of the DSU. The PMU provides independent 32bit counters that
+can count any of the supported events, along with a 64bit cycle counter.
+The PMU is accessed via CPU system registers and has no MMIO component.
+
+** DSU PMU required properties:
+
+- compatible : should be one of :
+
+ "arm,dsu-pmu"
+
+- interrupts : Exactly 1 SPI must be listed.
+
+- cpus : List of phandles for the CPUs connected to this DSU instance.
+
+
+** Example:
+
+dsu-pmu-0 {
+ compatible = "arm,dsu-pmu";
+ interrupts = <GIC_SPI 02 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
+ cpus = <&cpu_0>, <&cpu_1>;

+* Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI)
+
+Firmware implementing the SDEI functions described in ARM document number
+ARM DEN 0054A ("Software Delegated Exception Interface") can be used by
+Linux to receive notification of events such as those generated by
+firmware-first error handling, or from an IRQ that has been promoted to
+a firmware-assisted NMI.
+
+The interface provides a number of API functions for registering callbacks
+and enabling/disabling events. Functions are invoked by trapping to the
+privilege level of the SDEI firmware (specified as part of the binding
+below) and passing arguments in a manner specified by the "SMC Calling
+Convention (ARM DEN 0028B):
+
+ r0 => 32-bit Function ID / return value
+ {r1 - r3} => Parameters
+
+Note that the immediate field of the trapping instruction must be set
+to #0.
+
+The SDEI_EVENT_REGISTER function registers a callback in the kernel
+text to handle the specified event number.
+
+The sdei node should be a child node of '/firmware' and have required
+properties:
+
+ - compatible : should contain:
+ * "arm,sdei-1.0" : For implementations complying to SDEI version 1.x.
+
+ - method : The method of calling the SDEI firmware. Permitted
+ values are:
+ * "smc" : SMC #0, with the register assignments specified in this
+ binding.
+ * "hvc" : HVC #0, with the register assignments specified in this
+ binding.
+Example:
+ firmware {
+ sdei {
+ compatible = "arm,sdei-1.0";
+ method = "smc";
+ };
+ };

+ARM DynamIQ Shared Unit (DSU) PMU
+==================================
+
+ARM DynamIQ Shared Unit integrates one or more cores with an L3 memory system,
+control logic and external interfaces to form a multicore cluster. The PMU
+allows counting the various events related to the L3 cache, Snoop Control Unit
+etc, using 32bit independent counters. It also provides a 64bit cycle counter.
+
+The PMU can only be accessed via CPU system registers and are common to the
+cores connected to the same DSU. Like most of the other uncore PMUs, DSU
+PMU doesn't support process specific events and cannot be used in sampling mode.
+
+The DSU provides a bitmap for a subset of implemented events via hardware
+registers. There is no way for the driver to determine if the other events
+are available or not. Hence the driver exposes only those events advertised
+by the DSU, in "events" directory under :
+
+ /sys/bus/event_sources/devices/arm_dsu_<N>/
+
+The user should refer to the TRM of the product to figure out the supported events
+and use the raw event code for the unlisted events.
+
+The driver also exposes the CPUs connected to the DSU instance in "associated_cpus".
+
+
+e.g usage :
+
+ perf stat -a -e arm_dsu_0/cycles/
