Pull arm64 fixes from Catalin Marinas:
- Do not make a clean PTE dirty in pte_mkwrite()
The Arm architecture, for backwards compatibility reasons (ARMv8.0
before in-hardware dirty bit management - DBM), uses the PTE_RDONLY
bit to mean !dirty while the PTE_WRITE bit means DBM enabled. The
arm64 pte_mkwrite() simply clears the PTE_RDONLY bit and this
inadvertently makes the PTE pte_hw_dirty(). Most places making a PTE
writable also invoke pte_mkdirty() but do_swap_page() does not and we
end up with dirty, freshly swapped in, writeable pages.
- Do not warn if the destination page is already MTE-tagged in
copy_highpage()
In the majority of the cases, a destination page copied into is
freshly allocated without the PG_mte_tagged flag set. However, the
folio migration may be restarted if __folio_migrate_mapping() failed,
triggering the benign WARN_ON_ONCE().

arm64: mte: Do not warn if the page is already tagged in copy_highpage()
arm64, mm: avoid always making PTE dirty in pte_mkwrite()
|
|
Current pte_mkwrite_novma() makes PTE dirty unconditionally. This may
mark some pages that are never written dirty wrongly. For example,
do_swap_page() may map the exclusive pages with writable and clean PTEs
if the VMA is writable and the page fault is for read access.
However, current pte_mkwrite_novma() implementation always dirties the
PTE. This may cause unnecessary disk writing if the pages are
never written before being reclaimed.
So, change pte_mkwrite_novma() to clear the PTE_RDONLY bit only if the
PTE_DIRTY bit is set to make it possible to make the PTE writable and
clean.
The current behavior was introduced in commit 73e86cb03cf2 ("arm64:
Move PTE_RDONLY bit handling out of set_pte_at()"). Before that,
pte_mkwrite() only sets the PTE_WRITE bit, while set_pte_at() only
clears the PTE_RDONLY bit if both the PTE_WRITE and the PTE_DIRTY bits
are set.
To test the performance impact of the patch, on an arm64 server
machine, run 16 redis-server processes on socket 1 and 16
memtier_benchmark processes on socket 0 with mostly get
transactions (that is, redis-server will mostly read memory only).
The memory footprint of redis-server is larger than the available
memory, so swap out/in will be triggered. Test results show that the
patch can avoid most swapping out because the pages are mostly clean.
And the benchmark throughput improves ~23.9% in the test.

Pull kvm fixes from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Fix the handling of ZCR_EL2 in NV VMs
- Pick the correct translation regime when doing a PTW on the back of
a SEA
- Prevent userspace from injecting an event into a vcpu that isn't
initialised yet
- Move timer save/restore to the sysreg handling code, fixing EL2
timer access in the process
- Add FGT-based trapping of MDSCR_EL1 to reduce the overhead of debug
- Fix trapping configuration when the host isn't GICv3
- Improve the detection of HCR_EL2.E2H being RES1
- Drop a spurious 'break' statement in the S1 PTW
- Don't try to access SPE when owned by EL3
Documentation updates:
- Document the failure modes of event injection
- Document that a GICv3 guest can be created on a GICv5 host with
FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY
Selftest improvements:
- Add a selftest for the effective value of HCR_EL2.AMO
- Address build warning in the timer selftest when building with
clang
- Teach irqfd selftests about non-x86 architectures
- Add missing sysregs to the set_id_regs selftest
- Fix vcpu allocation in the vgic_lpi_stress selftest
- Correctly enable interrupts in the vgic_lpi_stress selftest
x86:
- Expand the KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY selftest to add a regression test
for the bug fixed by commit 3ccbf6f47098 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Return
-EAGAIN if userspace deletes/moves memslot during prefault")
- Don't try to get PMU capabilities from perf when running a CPU with
hybrid CPUs/PMUs, as perf will rightly WARN.
guest_memfd:
- Rework KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MMAP (newly introduced in 6.18) into a
more generic KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_FLAGS
- Add a guest_memfd INIT_SHARED flag and require userspace to
explicitly set said flag to initialize memory as SHARED,
irrespective of MMAP.
The behavior merged in 6.18 is that enabling mmap() implicitly
initializes memory as SHARED, which would result in an ABI
collision for x86 CoCo VMs as their memory is currently always
initialized PRIVATE.
- Allow mmap() on guest_memfd for x86 CoCo VMs, i.e. on VMs with
private memory, to enable testing such setups, i.e. to hopefully
flush out any other lurking ABI issues before 6.18 is officially
released.
- Add testcases to the guest_memfd selftest to cover guest_memfd
without MMAP, and host userspace accesses to mmap()'d private
memory"

The GIC CDEOI system instruction requires the Rt field to be set to 0b11111
otherwise the instruction behaviour becomes CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE.
Currenly, its usage is encoded as a system register write, with a constant
0 value:
write_sysreg_s(0, GICV5_OP_GIC_CDEOI)
While compiling with GCC, the 0 constant value, through these asm
constraints and modifiers ('x' modifier and 'Z' constraint combo):
asm volatile(__msr_s(r, "%x0") : : "rZ" (__val));
forces the compiler to issue the XZR register for the MSR operation (ie
that corresponds to Rt == 0b11111) issuing the right instruction encoding.
Unfortunately LLVM does not yet understand that modifier/constraint
combo so it ends up issuing a different register from XZR for the MSR
source, which in turns means that it encodes the GIC CDEOI instruction
wrongly and the instruction behaviour becomes CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE
that we must prevent.
Add a conditional to write_sysreg_s() macro that detects whether it
is passed a constant 0 value and issues an MSR write with XZR as source
register - explicitly doing what the asm modifier/constraint is meant to
achieve through constraints/modifiers, fixing the LLVM compilation issue.

We currently have two ways to identify CPUs that only implement FEAT_VHE
and not FEAT_E2H0:
- either they advertise it via ID_AA64MMFR4_EL1.E2H0,
- or the HCR_EL2.E2H bit is RAO/WI
However, there is a third category of "cpus" that fall between these
two cases: on CPUs that do not implement FEAT_FGT, it is IMPDEF whether
an access to ID_AA64MMFR4_EL1 can trap to EL2 when the register value
is zero.
A consequence of this is that on systems such as Neoverse V2, a NV
guest cannot reliably detect that it is in a VHE-only configuration
(E2H is writable, and ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1 is 0), despite the hypervisor's
best effort to repaint the id register.
Replace the RAO/WI test by a sequence that makes use of the VHE
register remnapping between EL1 and EL2 to detect this situation,
and work out whether we get the VHE behaviour even after having
set HCR_EL2.E2H to 0.
This solves the NV problem, and provides a more reliable acid test
for CPUs that do not completely follow the letter of the architecture
while providing a RES1 behaviour for HCR_EL2.E2H.

To date KVM has used the fine-grained traps for the sake of UNDEF
enforcement (so-called FGUs), meaning the constituent parts could be
computed on a per-VM basis and folded into the effective value when
programmed.
Prepare for traps changing based on the vCPU context by computing the
whole mess of them at vcpu_load(). Aggressively inline all the helpers
to preserve the build-time checks that were there before.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"This excludes the bulk of the x86 changes, which I will send
separately. They have two not complex but relatively unusual conflicts
so I will wait for other dust to settle.
guest_memfd:
- Add support for host userspace mapping of guest_memfd-backed memory
for VM types that do NOT use support KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE
(which isn't precisely the same thing as CoCo VMs, since x86's
SEV-MEM and SEV-ES have no way to detect private vs. shared).
This lays the groundwork for removal of guest memory from the
kernel direct map, as well as for limited mmap() for
guest_memfd-backed memory.
For more information see:
- commit a6ad54137af9 ("Merge branch 'guest-memfd-mmap' into HEAD")
- guest_memfd in Firecracker:
https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/tree/feature/secret-hiding
- direct map removal:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250221160728.1584559-1-roypat@amazon.co.uk/
- mmap support:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250328153133.3504118-1-tabba@google.com/
ARM:
- Add support for FF-A 1.2 as the secure memory conduit for pKVM,
allowing more registers to be used as part of the message payload.
- Change the way pKVM allocates its VM handles, making sure that the
privileged hypervisor is never tricked into using uninitialised
data.
- Speed up MMIO range registration by avoiding unnecessary RCU
synchronisation, which results in VMs starting much quicker.
- Add the dump of the instruction stream when panic-ing in the EL2
payload, just like the rest of the kernel has always done. This
will hopefully help debugging non-VHE setups.
- Add 52bit PA support to the stage-1 page-table walker, and make use
of it to populate the fault level reported to the guest on failing
to translate a stage-1 walk.
- Add NV support to the GICv3-on-GICv5 emulation code, ensuring
feature parity for guests, irrespective of the host platform.
- Fix some really ugly architecture problems when dealing with debug
in a nested VM. This has some bad performance impacts, but is at
least correct.
- Add enough infrastructure to be able to disable EL2 features and
give effective values to the EL2 control registers. This then
allows a bunch of features to be turned off, which helps cross-host
migration.
- Large rework of the selftest infrastructure to allow most tests to
transparently run at EL2. This is the first step towards enabling
NV testing.
- Various fixes and improvements all over the map, including one BE
fix, just in time for the removal of the feature.
LoongArch:
- Detect page table walk feature on new hardware
- Add sign extension with kernel MMIO/IOCSR emulation
- Improve in-kernel IPI emulation
- Improve in-kernel PCH-PIC emulation
- Move kvm_iocsr tracepoint out of generic code
RISC-V:
- Added SBI FWFT extension for Guest/VM with misaligned delegation
and pointer masking PMLEN features
- Added ONE_REG interface for SBI FWFT extension
- Added Zicbop and bfloat16 extensions for Guest/VM
- Enabled more common KVM selftests for RISC-V
- Added SBI v3.0 PMU enhancements in KVM and perf driver
s390:
- Improve interrupt cpu for wakeup, in particular the heuristic to
decide which vCPU to deliver a floating interrupt to.
- Clear the PTE when discarding a swapped page because of CMMA; this
bug was introduced in 6.16 when refactoring gmap code.
x86 selftests:
- Add #DE coverage in the fastops test (the only exception that's
guest- triggerable in fastop-emulated instructions).
- Fix PMU selftests errors encountered on Granite Rapids (GNR),
Sierra Forest (SRF) and Clearwater Forest (CWF).
- Minor cleanups and improvements
x86 (guest side):
- For the legacy PCI hole (memory between TOLUD and 4GiB) to UC when
overriding guest MTRR for TDX/SNP to fix an issue where ACPI
auto-mapping could map devices as WB and prevent the device drivers
from mapping their devices with UC/UC-.
- Make kvm_async_pf_task_wake() a local static helper and remove its
export.
- Use native qspinlocks when running in a VM with dedicated
vCPU=>pCPU bindings even when PV_UNHALT is unsupported.
Generic:
- Remove a redundant __GFP_NOWARN from kvm_setup_async_pf() as
__GFP_NOWARN is now included in GFP_NOWAIT.

KVM/arm64 updates for 6.18
- Add support for FF-A 1.2 as the secure memory conduit for pKVM,
allowing more registers to be used as part of the message payload.
- Change the way pKVM allocates its VM handles, making sure that the
privileged hypervisor is never tricked into using uninitialised
data.
- Speed up MMIO range registration by avoiding unnecessary RCU
synchronisation, which results in VMs starting much quicker.
- Add the dump of the instruction stream when panic-ing in the EL2
payload, just like the rest of the kernel has always done. This will
hopefully help debugging non-VHE setups.
- Add 52bit PA support to the stage-1 page-table walker, and make use
of it to populate the fault level reported to the guest on failing
to translate a stage-1 walk.
- Add NV support to the GICv3-on-GICv5 emulation code, ensuring
feature parity for guests, irrespective of the host platform.
- Fix some really ugly architecture problems when dealing with debug
in a nested VM. This has some bad performance impacts, but is at
least correct.
- Add enough infrastructure to be able to disable EL2 features and
give effective values to the EL2 control registers. This then allows
a bunch of features to be turned off, which helps cross-host
migration.
- Large rework of the selftest infrastructure to allow most tests to
transparently run at EL2. This is the first step towards enabling
NV testing.
- Various fixes and improvements all over the map, including one BE
fix, just in time for the removal of the feature.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"There's good stuff across the board, including some nice mm
improvements for CPUs with the 'noabort' BBML2 feature and a clever
patch to allow ptdump to play nicely with block mappings in the
vmalloc area.
Confidential computing:
- Add support for accepting secrets from firmware (e.g. ACPI CCEL)
and mapping them with appropriate attributes.
CPU features:
- Advertise atomic floating-point instructions to userspace
- Extend Spectre workarounds to cover additional Arm CPU variants
- Extend list of CPUs that support break-before-make level 2 and
guarantee not to generate TLB conflict aborts for changes of
mapping granularity (BBML2_NOABORT)
- Add GCS support to our uprobes implementation.
Documentation:
- Remove bogus SME documentation concerning register state when
entering/exiting streaming mode.
Entry code:
- Switch over to the generic IRQ entry code (GENERIC_IRQ_ENTRY)
- Micro-optimise syscall entry path with a compiler branch hint.
Memory management:
- Enable huge mappings in vmalloc space even when kernel page-table
dumping is enabled
- Tidy up the types used in our early MMU setup code
- Rework rodata= for closer parity with the behaviour on x86
- For CPUs implementing BBML2_NOABORT, utilise block mappings in the
linear map even when rodata= applies to virtual aliases
- Don't re-allocate the virtual region between '_text' and '_stext',
as doing so confused tools parsing /proc/vmcore.
Miscellaneous:
- Clean-up Kconfig menuconfig text for architecture features
- Avoid redundant bitmap_empty() during determination of supported
SME vector lengths
- Re-enable warnings when building the 32-bit vDSO object
- Avoid breaking our eggs at the wrong end.
Perf and PMUs:
- Support for v3 of the Hisilicon L3C PMU
- Support for Hisilicon's MN and NoC PMUs
- Support for Fujitsu's Uncore PMU
- Support for SPE's extended event filtering feature
- Preparatory work to enable data source filtering in SPE
- Support for multiple lanes in the DWC PCIe PMU
- Support for i.MX94 in the IMX DDR PMU driver
- MAINTAINERS update (Thank you, Yicong)
- Minor driver fixes (PERF_IDX2OFF() overflow, CMN register offsets).
Selftests:
- Add basic LSFE check to the existing hwcaps test
- Support nolibc in GCS tests
- Extend SVE ptrace test to pass unsupported regsets and invalid
vector lengths
- Minor cleanups (typos, cosmetic changes).
System registers:
- Fix ID_PFR1_EL1 definition
- Fix incorrect signedness of some fields in ID_AA64MMFR4_EL1
- Sync TCR_EL1 definition with the latest Arm ARM (L.b)
- Be stricter about the input fed into our AWK sysreg generator
script
- Typo fixes and removal of redundant definitions.
ACPI, EFI and PSCI:
- Decouple Arm's "Software Delegated Exception Interface" (SDEI)
support from the ACPI GHES code so that it can be used by platforms
booted with device-tree
- Remove unnecessary per-CPU tracking of the FPSIMD state across EFI
runtime calls
- Fix a node refcount imbalance in the PSCI device-tree code.
CPU Features:
- Ensure register sanitisation is applied to fields in ID_AA64MMFR4
- Expose AIDR_EL1 to userspace via sysfs, primarily so that KVM
guests can reliably query the underlying CPU types from the VMM
- Re-enabling of SME support (CONFIG_ARM64_SME) as a result of fixes
to our context-switching, signal handling and ptrace code"

create_kpti_ng_temp_pgd() is currently defined (as an alias) in
mmu.c without matching declaration in a header; instead cpufeature.c
makes its own declaration. This is clearly not pretty, and as commit
ceca927c86e6 ("arm64: mm: Fix CFI failure due to kpti_ng_pgd_alloc
function signature") showed, it also makes it very easy for the
prototypes to go out of sync.
All this would be much simpler if kpti_install_ng_mappings() and
associated functions lived in mmu.c, where they logically belong.
This is what this patch does:
- Move kpti_install_ng_mappings() and associated functions from
cpufeature.c to mmu.c, add a declaration to <asm/mmu.h>
- Remove create_kpti_ng_temp_pgd() and just call
__create_pgd_mapping_locked() directly instead
- Mark all these functions __init
- Move __initdata after kpti_ng_temp_alloc (as suggested by
checkpatch)

When using bpf_program__attach_kprobe_multi_opts on ARM64 to hook a BPF program
that contains the bpf_get_stackid function, the BPF program fails
to obtain the stack trace and returns -EFAULT.
This is because ftrace_partial_regs omits the configuration of the pstate register,
leaving pstate at the default value of 0. When get_perf_callchain executes,
it uses user_mode(regs) to determine whether it is in kernel mode.
This leads to a misjudgment that the code is in user mode,
so perf_callchain_kernel is not executed and the function returns directly.
As a result, trace->nr becomes 0, and finally -EFAULT is returned.
Therefore, the assignment of the pstate register is added here.

Our goal is to move towards enabling vmalloc-huge by default on arm64 so
as to reduce TLB pressure. Therefore, we need a way to analyze the portion
of block mappings in vmalloc space we can get on a production system; this
can be done through ptdump, but currently we disable vmalloc-huge if
CONFIG_PTDUMP_DEBUGFS is on. The reason is that lazy freeing of kernel
pagetables via vmap_try_huge_pxd() may race with ptdump, so ptdump
may dereference a bogus address.
To solve this, we need to synchronize ptdump_walk() and ptdump_check_wx()
with pud_free_pmd_page() and pmd_free_pte_page().
Since this race is very unlikely to happen in practice, we do not want to
penalize the vmalloc pagetable tearing path by taking the init_mm
mmap_lock. Therefore, we use static keys. ptdump_walk() and
ptdump_check_wx() are the pagetable walkers; they will enable the static
key - upon observing that, the vmalloc pagetable tearing path will get
patched in with an mmap_read_lock/unlock sequence. A combination of the
patched-in mmap_read_lock/unlock, the acquire semantics of
static_branch_inc(), and the barriers in __flush_tlb_kernel_pgtable()
ensures that ptdump will never get a hold on the address of a freed PMD
or PTE table.
We can verify the correctness of the algorithm via the following litmus
test (thanks to James Houghton and Will Deacon):
AArch64 ptdump
Variant=Ifetch
{
uint64_t pud=0xa110c;
uint64_t pmd;

For an approximate written proof of why this algorithm works, please read
the code comment in [1], which is now removed for the sake of simplicity.
mm-selftests pass. No issues were observed while parallelly running
test_vmalloc.sh (which stresses the vmalloc subsystem),
and cat /sys/kernel/debug/{kernel_page_tables, check_wx_pages} in a loop.

Patch series "introduce kasan.write_only option in hw-tags", v8.
Hardware tag based KASAN is implemented using the Memory Tagging Extension
(MTE) feature.
MTE is built on top of the ARMv8.0 virtual address tagging TBI (Top Byte
Ignore) feature and allows software to access a 4-bit allocation tag for
each 16-byte granule in the physical address space. A logical tag is
derived from bits 59-56 of the virtual address used for the memory access.
A CPU with MTE enabled will compare the logical tag against the
allocation tag and potentially raise an tag check fault on mismatch,
subject to system registers configuration.
Since ARMv8.9, FEAT_MTE_STORE_ONLY can be used to restrict raise of tag
check fault on store operation only.
Using this feature (FEAT_MTE_STORE_ONLY), introduce KASAN write-only mode
which restricts KASAN check write (store) operation only. This mode omits
KASAN check for read (fetch/load) operation. Therefore, it might be used
not only debugging purpose but also in normal environment.
This patch (of 2):
Since Armv8.9, FEATURE_MTE_STORE_ONLY feature is introduced to restrict
raise of tag check fault on store operation only. Introduce KASAN write
only mode based on this feature.
KASAN write only mode restricts KASAN checks operation for write only and
omits the checks for fetch/read operations when accessing memory. So it
might be used not only debugging enviroment but also normal enviroment to
check memory safty.
This features can be controlled with "kasan.write_only" arguments. When
"kasan.write_only=on", KASAN checks write operation only otherwise KASAN
checks all operations.
This changes the MTE_STORE_ONLY feature as BOOT_CPU_FEATURE like
ARM64_MTE_ASYMM so that makes it initialise in kasan_init_hw_tags() with
other function together.

Use the filtering hook infrastructure to implement a new walker
that, for a given VA and an IPA, returns the level of the first
occurence of this IPA in the walk from that VA.
This will be used to improve our SEA syndrome reporting.

Add a filtering hook that can get called on each level of the
walk, and providing access to the full state.
Crucially, this is called *before* the access is made, so that
it is possible to track down the level of a faulting access.

The kernel linear mapping is painted in very early stage of system boot.
The cpufeature has not been finalized yet at this point. So the linear
mapping is determined by the capability of boot CPU only. If the boot
CPU supports BBML2, large block mappings will be used for linear
mapping.
But the secondary CPUs may not support BBML2, so repaint the linear
mapping if large block mapping is used and the secondary CPUs don't
support BBML2 once cpufeature is finalized on all CPUs.
If the boot CPU doesn't support BBML2 or the secondary CPUs have the
same BBML2 capability with the boot CPU, repainting the linear mapping
is not needed.
Repainting is implemented by the boot CPU, which we know supports BBML2,
so it is safe for the live mapping size to change for this CPU. The
linear map region is walked using the pagewalk API and any discovered
large leaf mappings are split to pte mappings using the existing helper
functions. Since the repainting is performed inside of a stop_machine(),
we must use GFP_ATOMIC to allocate the extra intermediate pgtables. But
since we are still early in boot, it is expected that there is plenty of
memory available so we will never need to sleep for reclaim, and so
GFP_ATOMIC is acceptable here.
The secondary CPUs are all put into a waiting area with the idmap in
TTBR0 and reserved map in TTBR1 while this is performed since they
cannot be allowed to observe any size changes on the live mappings. Some
of this infrastructure is reused from the kpti case. Specifically we
share the same flag (was __idmap_kpti_flag, now idmap_kpti_bbml2_flag)
since it means we don't have to reserve any extra pgtable memory to
idmap the extra flag.

SErrors are not deliverable at EL2 when the effective value of
HCR_EL2.{TGE,AMO} = {0, 0}. This is bothersome to deal with in nested
as we need to use auxiliary pending state to track the pending vSError
since HCR_EL2.VSE has no mechanism for honoring the guest HCR. On top of
that, we have no way of making that auxiliary pending state visible in
ISR_EL1.
A defect against the architecture now allows an implementation to treat
HCR_EL2.AMO as 1 when HCR_EL2.{E2H,TGE} = {1, 0}. Let's do exactly that,
meaning SErrors are always deliverable at EL2 for the typical E2H=RES1
VM.

For ioremap(), so far we only checked if it was a device (RIPAS_DEV) to choose
an encrypted vs decrypted mapping. However, we may have firmware reserved memory
regions exposed to the OS (e.g., EFI Coco Secret Securityfs, ACPI CCEL).
We need to make sure that anything that is RIPAS_RAM (i.e., Guest
protected memory with RMM guarantees) are also mapped as encrypted.
Rephrasing the above, anything that is not RIPAS_EMPTY is guaranteed to be
protected by the RMM. Thus we choose encrypted mapping for anything that is not
RIPAS_EMPTY. While at it, rename the helper function
__arm64_is_protected_mmio => arm64_rsi_is_protected
to clearly indicate that this not an arm64 generic helper, but something to do
with Realms.

When rodata=full is specified, kernel linear mapping has to be mapped at
PTE level since large page table can't be split due to break-before-make
rule on ARM64.
This resulted in a couple of problems:
- performance degradation
- more TLB pressure
- memory waste for kernel page table
With FEAT_BBM level 2 support, splitting large block page table to
smaller ones doesn't need to make the page table entry invalid anymore.
This allows kernel split large block mapping on the fly.
Add kernel page table split support and use large block mapping by
default when FEAT_BBM level 2 is supported for rodata=full. When
changing permissions for kernel linear mapping, the page table will be
split to smaller size.
The machine without FEAT_BBM level 2 will fallback to have kernel linear
mapping PTE-mapped when rodata=full.
With this we saw significant performance boost with some benchmarks and
much less memory consumption on my AmpereOne machine (192 cores, 1P)
with 256GB memory.
* Memory use after boot
Before:
MemTotal: 258988984 kB
MemFree: 254821700 kB
After:
MemTotal: 259505132 kB
MemFree: 255410264 kB
Around 500MB more memory are free to use. The larger the machine, the
more memory saved.
* Memcached
We saw performance degradation when running Memcached benchmark with
rodata=full vs rodata=on. Our profiling pointed to kernel TLB pressure.
With this patchset we saw ops/sec is increased by around 3.5%, P99
latency is reduced by around 9.6%.
The gain mainly came from reduced kernel TLB misses. The kernel TLB
MPKI is reduced by 28.5%.
The benchmark data is now on par with rodata=on too.
* Disk encryption (dm-crypt) benchmark
Ran fio benchmark with the below command on a 128G ramdisk (ext4) with
disk encryption (by dm-crypt).
fio --directory=/data --random_generator=lfsr --norandommap \
--randrepeat 1 --status-interval=999 --rw=write --bs=4k --loops=1 \
--ioengine=sync --iodepth=1 --numjobs=1 --fsync_on_close=1 \
--group_reporting --thread --name=iops-test-job --eta-newline=1 \
--size 100G
The IOPS is increased by 90% - 150% (the variance is high, but the worst
number of good case is around 90% more than the best number of bad
case). The bandwidth is increased and the avg clat is reduced
proportionally.
* Sequential file read
Read 100G file sequentially on XFS (xfs_io read with page cache
populated). The bandwidth is increased by 150%.

We currently have duplicate definitions for ARM_CPU_PART_CORTEX_X1C and
MIDR_CORTEX_X1C as a result of commits:
58d245e03c324d08 ("arm64: cputype: Add Cortex-X1C definitions")
efe676a1a7554219 ("arm64: proton-pack: Add new CPUs 'k' values for branch mitigation")
Due to inconsistent sorting when adding entries, there was no textual
conflict between the two patches.
Delete the duplicate definitions added by the latter commit.
The definitions in general are largely (but not entirely) in order of
the MIDR_EL1.PartNum value rather than by CPU name, and the remaining
Cortex-X1C definitions appear later in the list.
For now I haven't sorted the remaining MIDR definitions to minimize
churn. I intend to perform some larger cleanup of these in the near
future which should supersede that anyhow.

In case you haven't realized it yet, the architecture is _slightly_
broken in the context of nested virt. Here we have another example of
FEAT_NV2 redirecting a sysreg (MDSCR_EL1) to memory that actually
affects execution at vEL2.
Fortunately, MDCR_EL2.TDA provides the necessary traps to hide this
mess at the expense of unnecessarily trapping the breakpoint/watchpoint
registers. Yes, FEAT_FGT gives us a precise trap but let's just opt for
obvious correctness to start.

FEAT_SPEv1p4 (optional from Armv8.8) adds some new filter bits and also
makes some previously available bits unavailable again e.g:
E[30], bit [30]
When FEAT_SPEv1p4 is _not_ implemented ...
Continuing to hard code the valid filter bits for each version isn't
scalable, and it also doesn't work for filter bits that aren't related
to SPE version. For example most bits have a further condition:
E[15], bit [15]
When ... and filtering on event 15 is supported:
Whether "filtering on event 15" is implemented or not is only
discoverable from the TRM of that specific CPU or by probing
PMSEVFR_EL1.
Instead of hard coding them, write all 1s to the PMSEVFR_EL1 register
and read it back to discover the RES0 bits. Unsupported bits are RAZ/WI
so should read as 0s.
For any hardware that doesn't strictly follow RAZ/WI for unsupported
filters: Any bits that should have been supported in a specific SPE
version but now incorrectly appear to be RES0 wouldn't have worked
anyway, so it's better to fail to open events that request them rather
than behaving unexpectedly. Bits that aren't implemented but also aren't
RAZ/WI will be incorrectly reported as supported, but allowing them to
be used is harmless.
Testing on N1SDP shows the probed RES0 bits to be the same as the hard
coded ones. The FVP with SPEv1p4 shows only additional new RES0 bits,
i.e. no previously hard coded RES0 bits are missing.
