commit 973b9e37330656dec719ede508e4dc40e5c2d80c upstream.

If FEAT_MTE2 is disabled via the arm64.nomte command line argument on a
CPU that claims to support FEAT_MTE2, the kernel will use Tagged Normal
in the MAIR. If we interpret arm64.nomte to mean that the CPU does not
in fact implement FEAT_MTE2, setting the system register like this may
lead to UNSPECIFIED behavior. Fix it by arranging for MAIR to be set
in the C function cpu_enable_mte which is called based on the sanitized
version of the system register.

There is no need for the rest of the MTE-related system register
initialization to happen from assembly, with the exception of TCR_EL1,
which must be set to include at least TBI1 because the secondary CPUs
access KASan-allocated data structures early. Therefore, make the TCR_EL1
initialization unconditional and move the rest of the initialization to
cpu_enable_mte so that we no longer have a dependency on the unsanitized
ID register value.

<title>arm64/sme: Don't flush SVE register state when allocating SME storage</title>

commit 826a4fdd2ada9e5923c58bdd168f31a42e958ffc upstream.

Currently when taking a SME access trap we allocate storage for the SVE
register state in order to be able to handle storage of streaming mode SVE.
Due to the original usage in a purely SVE context the SVE register state
allocation this also flushes the register state for SVE if storage was
already allocated but in the SME context this is not desirable. For a SME
access trap to be taken the task must not be in streaming mode so either
there already is SVE register state present for regular SVE mode which would
be corrupted or the task does not have TIF_SVE and the flush is redundant.

Fix this by adding a flag to sve_alloc() indicating if we are in a SVE
context and need to flush the state. Freshly allocated storage is always
zeroed either way.

<id>urn:sha1:f83cbd14c79459b03f1d0235c76533c5628b7263</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 2e8cff0a0eee87b27f0cf87ad8310eb41b5886ab upstream.

On arm64, "rodata=full" has been suppored (but not documented) since
commit:

  c55191e96caa9d78 ("arm64: mm: apply r/o permissions of VM areas to its linear alias as well")

As it's necessary to determine the rodata configuration early during
boot, arm64 has an early_param() handler for this, whereas init/main.c
has a __setup() handler which is run later.

Unfortunately, this split meant that since commit:

  f9a40b0890658330 ("init/main.c: return 1 from handled __setup() functions")

... passing "rodata=full" would result in a spurious warning from the
__setup() handler (though RO permissions would be configured
appropriately).

Further, "rodata=full" has been broken since commit:

  0d6ea3ac94ca77c5 ("lib/kstrtox.c: add "false"/"true" support to kstrtobool()")

... which caused strtobool() to parse "full" as false (in addition to
many other values not documented for the "rodata=" kernel parameter.

This patch fixes this breakage by:

* Moving the core parameter parser to an __early_param(), such that it
  is available early.

* Adding an (optional) arch hook which arm64 can use to parse "full".

* Updating the documentation to mention that "full" is valid for arm64.

* Having the core parameter parser handle "on" and "off" explicitly,
  such that any undocumented values (e.g. typos such as "ful") are
  reported as errors rather than being silently accepted.

Note that __setup() and early_param() have opposite conventions for
their return values, where __setup() uses 1 to indicate a parameter was
handled and early_param() uses 0 to indicate a parameter was handled.

Fixes: f9a40b089065 ("init/main.c: return 1 from handled __setup() functions")
Fixes: 0d6ea3ac94ca ("lib/kstrtox.c: add "false"/"true" support to kstrtobool()")

<title>kexec_file: drop weak attribute from functions</title>

<id>urn:sha1:08f7483635ae536ec12682234a7efea7f5d052d8</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 65d9a9a60fd71be964effb2e94747a6acb6e7015 ]

As requested
(http://lkml.kernel.org/r/87ee0q7b92.fsf@email.froward.int.ebiederm.org),
this series converts weak functions in kexec to use the #ifdef approach.

Quoting the 3e35142ef99fe ("kexec_file: drop weak attribute from
arch_kexec_apply_relocations[_add]") changelog:

: Since commit d1bcae833b32f1 ("ELF: Don't generate unused section symbols")
: [1], binutils (v2.36+) started dropping section symbols that it thought
: were unused.  This isn't an issue in general, but with kexec_file.c, gcc
: is placing kexec_arch_apply_relocations[_add] into a separate
: .text.unlikely section and the section symbol ".text.unlikely" is being
: dropped.  Due to this, recordmcount is unable to find a non-weak symbol in
: .text.unlikely to generate a relocation record against.

This patch (of 2);

Drop __weak attribute from functions in kexec_file.c:
- arch_kexec_kernel_image_probe()
- arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup()
- arch_kexec_kernel_image_load()
- arch_kexec_locate_mem_hole()
- arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig()

arch_kexec_kernel_image_load() calls into kexec_image_load_default(), so
drop the static attribute for the latter.

arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig() is not overridden by any architecture, so
drop the __weak attribute.

  head: cover entire kernel image in initial ID map") as part of a
  large refactoring of the arm64 boot flow. This simple fix is therefore
  preferred for -stable backporting ]

On a system that implements FEAT_EPAN, read/write access to the idmap
is denied because UXN is not set on the swapper PTEs. As a result,
idmap_kpti_install_ng_mappings panics the kernel when accessing
__idmap_kpti_flag. Fix it by setting UXN on these PTEs.

Pull kvm fixes from Paolo Bonzini:
 "While last week's pull request contained miscellaneous fixes for x86,
  this one covers other architectures, selftests changes, and a bigger
  series for APIC virtualization bugs that were discovered during 5.20
  development. The idea is to base 5.20 development for KVM on top of
  this tag.

  ARM64:

   - Properly reset the SVE/SME flags on vcpu load

   - Fix a vgic-v2 regression regarding accessing the pending state of a
     HW interrupt from userspace (and make the code common with vgic-v3)

   - Fix access to the idreg range for protected guests

   - Ignore 'kvm-arm.mode=protected' when using VHE

   - Return an error from kvm_arch_init_vm() on allocation failure

   - A bunch of small cleanups (comments, annotations, indentation)

  RISC-V:

   - Typo fix in arch/riscv/kvm/vmid.c

   - Remove broken reference pattern from MAINTAINERS entry

  x86-64:

   - Fix error in page tables with MKTME enabled

   - Dirty page tracking performance test extended to running a nested
     guest

   - Disable APICv/AVIC in cases that it cannot implement correctly"

[ This merge also fixes a misplaced end parenthesis bug introduced in
  commit 3743c2f02517 ("KVM: x86: inhibit APICv/AVIC on changes to APIC
  ID or APIC base") pointed out by Sean Christopherson ]
