Per Linus' comments requesting the replacement of "INDIR_BR_LP" in the
indirect branch tracking prctl()s with something more readable, and
suggesting the use of the speculation control prctl()s as an exemplar,
reimplement the prctl()s and related constants that control per-task
forward-edge control flow integrity.
This primarily involves two changes. First, the prctls are
restructured to resemble the style of the speculative execution
workaround control prctls PR_{GET,SET}_SPECULATION_CTRL, to make them
easier to extend in the future. Second, the "indir_br_lp" abbrevation
is expanded to "branch_landing_pads" to be less telegraphic. The
kselftest and documentation is adjusted accordingly.

The root document usually has a special :ref:`genindex` link to the
generated index. This is also the case for Documentation/index.rst. The
other index.rst files deeper in the directory hierarchy usually don't.
For SPHINXDIRS builds, the root document isn't Documentation/index.rst,
but some other index.rst in the hierarchy. Currently they have a
".. only::" block to add the index link when doing SPHINXDIRS html
builds.
This is obviously very tedious and repetitive. The link is also added to
all index.rst files in the hierarchy for SPHINXDIRS builds, not just the
root document.
Put the boilerplate in a sphinx-includes/subproject-index.rst file, and
include it at the end of the root document for subproject builds in an
ad-hoc source-read extension defined in conf.py.
For now, keep having the boilerplate in translations, because this
approach currently doesn't cover translated index link headers.

Samuel Holland <samuel.holland@sifive.com> says:
RISC-V defines three extensions for pointer masking[1]:
- Smmpm: configured in M-mode, affects M-mode
- Smnpm: configured in M-mode, affects the next lower mode (S or U-mode)
- Ssnpm: configured in S-mode, affects the next lower mode (VS, VU, or U-mode)
This series adds support for configuring Smnpm or Ssnpm (depending on
which privilege mode the kernel is running in) to allow pointer masking
in userspace (VU or U-mode), extending the PR_SET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL API
from arm64. Unlike arm64 TBI, userspace pointer masking is not enabled
by default on RISC-V. Additionally, the tag width (referred to as PMLEN)
is variable, so userspace needs to ask the kernel for a specific tag
width, which is interpreted as a lower bound on the number of tag bits.
This series also adds support for a tagged address ABI similar to arm64
and x86. Since accesses from the kernel to user memory use the kernel's
pointer masking configuration, not the user's, the kernel must untag
user pointers in software before dereferencing them. And since the tag
width is variable, as with LAM on x86, it must be kept the same across
all threads in a process so untagged_addr_remote() can work.

Supm is a virtual ISA extension defined in the RISC-V Pointer Masking
specification, which indicates that pointer masking is available in
U-mode. It can be provided by either Smnpm or Ssnpm, depending on which
mode the kernel runs in. Userspace should not care about this
distinction, so export Supm instead of either underlying extension.
Hide the extension if the kernel was compiled without support for the
pointer masking prctl() interface.

When pointer masking is enabled for userspace, the kernel can accept
tagged pointers as arguments to some system calls. Allow this by
untagging the pointers in access_ok() and the uaccess routines. The
uaccess routines must peform untagging in software because U-mode and
S-mode have entirely separate pointer masking configurations. In fact,
hardware may not even implement pointer masking for S-mode.
Since the number of tag bits is variable, untagged_addr_remote() needs
to know what PMLEN to use for the remote mm. Therefore, the pointer
masking mode must be the same for all threads sharing an mm. Enforce
this with a lock flag in the mm context, as x86 does for LAM. The flag
gets reset in init_new_context() during fork(), as the new mm is no
longer multithreaded.

RISC-V supports pointer masking with a variable number of tag bits
(which is called "PMLEN" in the specification) and which is configured
at the next higher privilege level.
Wire up the PR_SET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL and PR_GET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL prctls
so userspace can request a lower bound on the number of tag bits and
determine the actual number of tag bits. As with arm64's
PR_TAGGED_ADDR_ENABLE, the pointer masking configuration is
thread-scoped, inherited on clone() and fork() and cleared on execve().

RISCV_HWPROBE_KEY_CPUPERF_0 was mistakenly flagged as a bitmask in
hwprobe_key_is_bitmask(), when in reality it was an enum value. This
causes problems when used in conjunction with RISCV_HWPROBE_WHICH_CPUS,
since SLOW, FAST, and EMULATED have values whose bits overlap with
each other. If the caller asked for the set of CPUs that was SLOW or
EMULATED, the returned set would also include CPUs that were FAST.
Introduce a new hwprobe key, RISCV_HWPROBE_KEY_MISALIGNED_PERF, which
returns the same values in response to a direct query (with no flags),
but is properly handled as an enumerated value. As a result, SLOW,
FAST, and EMULATED are all correctly treated as distinct values under
the new key when queried with the WHICH_CPUS flag.
Leave the old key in place to avoid disturbing applications which may
have already come to rely on the key, with or without its broken
behavior with respect to the WHICH_CPUS flag.

The RISC-V architecture makes a real time counter CSR (via RDTIME
instruction) available for applications in U-mode but there is no
architected mechanism for an application to discover the frequency
the counter is running at. Some applications (e.g., DPDK) use the
time counter for basic performance analysis as well as fine grained
time-keeping.
Add support to the hwprobe system call to export the time CSR
frequency to code running in U-mode.

This harmonizes all virtual addressing modes which can now all map
(PGDIR_SIZE * PTRS_PER_PGD) / 4 of physical memory.
The RISCV implementation of KASAN requires that the boundary between
shallow mappings are aligned on an 8G boundary. In this case we need
VMALLOC_START to be 8G aligned. So although we only need to move the
start of the linear mapping down by 4GiB to allow 128GiB to be mapped,
we actually move it down by 8GiB (creating a 4GiB hole between the
linear mapping and KASAN shadow space) to maintain the alignment
requirement.

Andrew Jones <ajones@ventanamicro.com> says:
Zawrs provides two instructions (wrs.nto and wrs.sto), where both are
meant to allow the hart to enter a low-power state while waiting on a
store to a memory location. The instructions also both wait an
implementation-defined "short" duration (unless the implementation
terminates the stall for another reason). The difference is that while
wrs.sto will terminate when the duration elapses, wrs.nto, depending on
configuration, will either just keep waiting or an ILL exception will be
raised. Linux will use wrs.nto, so if platforms have an implementation
which falls in the "just keep waiting" category (which is not expected),
then it should _not_ advertise Zawrs in the hardware description.
Like wfi (and with the same {m,h}status bits to configure it), when
wrs.nto is configured to raise exceptions it's expected that the higher
privilege level will see the instruction was a wait instruction, do
something, and then resume execution following the instruction. For
example, KVM does configure exceptions for wfi (hstatus.VTW=1) and
therefore also for wrs.nto. KVM does this for wfi since it's better to
allow other tasks to be scheduled while a VCPU waits for an interrupt.
For waits such as those where wrs.nto/sto would be used, which are
typically locks, it is also a good idea for KVM to be involved, as it
can attempt to schedule the lock holding VCPU.
This series starts with Christoph's addition of the riscv
smp_cond_load_relaxed function which applies wrs.sto when available.
That patch has been reworked to use wrs.nto and to use the same approach
as Arm for the wait loop, since we can't have arbitrary C code between
the load-reserved and the wrs. Then, hwprobe support is added (since the
instructions are also usable from usermode), and finally KVM is
taught about wrs.nto, allowing guests to see and use the Zawrs
extension.
We still don't have test results from hardware, and it's not possible to
prove that using Zawrs is a win when testing on QEMU, not even when
oversubscribing VCPUs to guests. However, it is possible to use KVM
selftests to force a scenario where we can prove Zawrs does its job and
does it well. [4] is a test which does this and, on my machine, without
Zawrs it takes 16 seconds to complete and with Zawrs it takes 0.25
seconds.
This series is also available here [1]. In order to use QEMU for testing
a build with [2] is needed. In order to enable guests to use Zawrs with
KVM using kvmtool, the branch at [3] may be used.

Some userspace applications (OpenJDK for instance) uses the free MSBs
in pointers to insert additional information for their own logic and
need to get this information from somewhere. Currently they rely on
parsing /proc/cpuinfo "mmu=svxx" string to obtain the current value of
virtual address usable bits [1]. Since this reflect the raw supported
MMU mode, it might differ from the logical one used internally which is
why arch_get_mmap_end() is used. Exporting the highest mmapable address
through hwprobe will allow a more stable interface to be used. For that
purpose, add a new hwprobe key named
RISCV_HWPROBE_KEY_HIGHEST_VIRT_ADDRESS which will export the highest
userspace virtual address.
