561f60dfd1 ARM: 9470/1: Handle BE8 vs BE32 in ARCH_CC_CAN_LINK
ARM big-endian has two different binary formats. BE8 and the older BE32.
They are incompatible with each other.

Handle those when evaluating ARCH_CC_CAN_LINK by using the respective
configuration of the kernel itself.

3df8585afd ARM: 9469/1: Implement ARCH_HAS_CC_CAN_LINK
The generic CC_CAN_LINK detection does not handle different byte orders.
This may lead to userprogs which are not actually runnable on the target
kernel.

Use architecture-specific logic supporting byte orders instead.

15518e633b arm/paravirt: Use common code for paravirt_steal_clock()
Remove the arch-specific variant of paravirt_steal_clock() and use
the common one instead.

This allows to remove paravirt.c and paravirt.h from arch/arm.

Until all archs supporting Xen have been switched to the common code
of paravirt_steal_clock(), drivers/xen/time.c needs to include
asm/paravirt.h for those archs, while this is not necessary for arm
any longer.

fedadc4137 ARM: 9461/1: Disable HIGHPTE on PREEMPT_RT kernels
gup_pgd_range() is invoked with disabled interrupts and invokes
__kmap_local_page_prot() via pte_offset_map(), gup_p4d_range().
With HIGHPTE enabled, __kmap_local_page_prot() invokes kmap_high_get()
which uses a spinlock_t via lock_kmap_any(). This leads to an
sleeping-while-atomic error on PREEMPT_RT because spinlock_t becomes a
sleeping lock and must not be acquired in atomic context.

The loop in map_new_virtual() uses wait_queue_head_t for wake up which
also is using a spinlock_t.

Since HIGHPTE is rarely needed at all, turn it off for PREEMPT_RT
to allow the use of get_user_pages_fast().

[arnd: rework patch to turn off HIGHPTE instead of HAVE_PAST_GUP]

256d97d358 ARM: 9459/1: Disable jump-label on PREEMPT_RT
jump-labels are used to efficiently switch between two possible code
paths. To achieve this, stop_machine() is used to keep the CPU in a
known state while the opcode is modified. The usage of stop_machine()
here leads to large latency spikes which can be observed on PREEMPT_RT.

Jump labels may change the target during runtime and are not restricted
to debug or "configuration/ setup" part of a PREEMPT_RT system where
high latencies could be defined as acceptable.

On 64-bit Arm, it is possible to use jump labels without the
stop_machine() call, which architecturally provides a way to atomically
change one 32-bit instruction word while keeping maintaining consistency,
but this is not generally the case on 32-bit, in particular in thumb2
mode.

Disable jump-label support on a PREEMPT_RT system when SMP is enabled.

[bigeasy: Patch description.]

cd4eaccc00 treewide: drop outdated compiler version remarks in Kconfig help texts
As of writing, Documentation/Changes states the minimal versions of GNU C
being 8.1, Clang being 15.0.0 and binutils being 2.30.  A few Kconfig help
texts are pointing out that specific GCC and Clang versions are needed,
but by now, those pointers to versions, such later than 4.0, later than
4.4, or clang later than 5.0, are obsolete and unlikely to be found by
users configuring their kernel builds anyway.

Drop these outdated remarks in Kconfig help texts referring to older
compiler and binutils versions.  No functional change.

23ef9d4397 kcfi: Rename CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI
The kernel's CFI implementation uses the KCFI ABI specifically, and is
not strictly tied to a particular compiler. In preparation for GCC
supporting KCFI, rename CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI (along with
associated options).

Use new "transitional" Kconfig option for old CONFIG_CFI_CLANG that will
enable CONFIG_CFI during olddefconfig.

ARM: mach-hpe: Rework support and directory structure
Having a platform need a mach-* directory should be seen as a negative,
it means the platform needs special non-standard handling. ARM64 support
does not allow mach-* directories at all. While we may not get to that
given all the non-standard architectures we support, we should still try
to get as close as we can and reduce the number of mach directories.

The mach-hpe/ directory and files, provides just one "feature":
having the kernel print the machine name if the DTB does not also contain
a "model" string (which they always do). To reduce the number of mach-*
directories let's do without that feature and remove this directory.

Note, we drop the l2c_aux_mask = ~0 line, but this is safe as
the fallback GENERIC_DT machine has that as the default.

a578dd095d CRC updates for 6.17
Updates for the kernel's CRC (cyclic redundancy check) code:
 
  - Reorganize the architecture-optimized CRC code. It now lives in
    lib/crc/$(SRCARCH)/ rather than arch/$(SRCARCH)/lib/, and it is no
    longer artificially split into separate generic and arch modules.
    This allows better inlining and dead code elimination. The generic
    CRC code is also no longer exported, simplifying the API. (This
    mirrors the similar changes to SHA-1 and SHA-2 in lib/crypto/,
    which can be found in the "Crypto library updates" pull request.)
 
  - Improve crc32c() performance on newer x86_64 CPUs on long messages
    by enabling the VPCLMULQDQ optimized code.
 
  - Simplify the crypto_shash wrappers for crc32_le() and crc32c().
    Register just one shash algorithm for each that uses the (fully
    optimized) library functions, instead of unnecessarily providing
    direct access to the generic CRC code.
 
  - Remove unused and obsolete drivers for hardware CRC engines.
 
  - Remove CRC-32 combination functions that are no longer used.
 
  - Add kerneldoc for crc32_le(), crc32_be(), and crc32c().
 
  - Convert the crc32() macro to an inline function.

Commit e7607f7d6d ("ARM: 9443/1: Require linker to support KEEP within

fault addressed by that workaround.

Restore the binutils version dependency by using
CONFIG_LD_CAN_USE_KEEP_IN_OVERLAY as an additional condition to ensure
that CONFIG_HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is only enabled with
binutils >= 2.36 and ld.lld >= 21.0.0.

decide to trace these as well.

4d6d0a6263 tracing: Remove redundant config HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD
Ftrace is tightly coupled with architecture specific code because it
requires the use of trampolines written in assembly. This means that when
a new feature or optimization is made, it must be done for all
architectures. To simplify the approach, CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_* configs are
added to denote which architecture has the new enhancement so that other
architectures can still function until they too have been updated.

The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the
DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements
DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it redundant
with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE.

Remove the HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT config and use DYNAMIC_FTRACE directly where
applicable.

57fbad15c2 stackleak: Rename STACKLEAK to KSTACK_ERASE
In preparation for adding Clang sanitizer coverage stack depth tracking
that can support stack depth callbacks:

- Add the new top-level CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE option which will be
  implemented either with the stackleak GCC plugin, or with the Clang
  stack depth callback support.
- Rename CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK as needed to CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE,
  but keep it for anything specific to the GCC plugin itself.
- Rename all exposed "STACKLEAK" names and files to "KSTACK_ERASE" (named
  for what it does rather than what it protects against), but leave as
  many of the internals alone as possible to avoid even more churn.

While here, also split "prev_lowest_stack" into CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE_METRICS,
since that's the only place it is referenced from.

b8e147973e gcc-plugins: Remove ARM_SSP_PER_TASK plugin
As part of trying to remove GCC plugins from Linux, drop the
ARM_SSP_PER_TASK plugin. The feature is available upstream since GCC
12, so anyone needing newer kernels with per-task ssp can update their
compiler[1].

e7607f7d6d ARM: 9443/1: Require linker to support KEEP within OVERLAY for DCE
ld.lld prior to 21.0.0 does not support using the KEEP keyword within an
overlay description, which may be needed to avoid discarding necessary
sections within an overlay with '--gc-sections', which can be enabled
for the kernel via CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION.

Disallow CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION without support for KEEP
within OVERLAY and introduce a macro, OVERLAY_KEEP, that can be used to
conditionally add KEEP when it is properly supported to avoid breaking
old versions of ld.lld.

ccb8ce5268 ARM: 9441/1: rust: Enable Rust support for ARMv7
This commit allows building ARMv7 kernels with Rust support.

The rust core library expects some __eabi_... functions
that are not implemented in the kernel.
Those functions are some float operations and __aeabi_uldivmod.
For now those are implemented with define_panicking_intrinsics!.

This is based on the code by Sven Van Asbroeck from the original
rust branch and inspired by the AArch version by Jamie Cunliffe.

I have tested the rust samples and a custom simple MMIO module
on hardware (De1SoC FPGA + Arm A9 CPU).

On ARMv7 / v7m machines read CTR and CLIDR registers to provide
information regarding the cache topology. Earlier machines should
describe full cache topology in the device tree.

Note, this follows the ARM64 cacheinfo support and provides only minimal
support required to bootstrap cache info. All useful properties should
be decribed in Device Tree.

1684e82936 arm/crc-t10dif: expose CRC-T10DIF function through lib
Move the arm CRC-T10DIF assembly code into the lib directory and wire it
up to the library interface.  This allows it to be used without going
through the crypto API.  It remains usable via the crypto API too via
the shash algorithms that use the library interface.  Thus all the
arch-specific "shash" code becomes unnecessary and is removed.

31daa34315 crash, powerpc: default to CRASH_DUMP=n on PPC_BOOK3S_32
Fixes boot failures on 6.9 on PPC_BOOK3S_32 machines using Open Firmware. 
On these machines, the kernel refuses to boot from non-zero
PHYSICAL_START, which occurs when CRASH_DUMP is on.

Since most PPC_BOOK3S_32 machines boot via Open Firmware, it should
default to off for them.  Users booting via some other mechanism can still
turn it on explicitly.

Does not change the default on any other architectures for the
time being.

de6c85bf91 dma-mapping: clearly mark DMA ops as an architecture feature
DMA ops are a helper for architectures and not for drivers to override
the DMA implementation.

Unfortunately driver authors keep ignoring this.  Make the fact more
clear by renaming the symbol to ARCH_HAS_DMA_OPS and having the two drivers
overriding their dma_ops depend on that.  These drivers should probably be
marked broken, but we can give them a bit of a grace period for that.

Currently, almost all architectures have switched to GENERIC_CPU_DEVICES,
except for arm32. Also switch over to GENERIC_CPU_DEVICES, and provide an
arch_register_cpu() that populates the hotpluggable flag for arm32.

The struct cpu in struct cpuinfo_arm is never used directly, remove
it to use the one GENERIC_CPU_DEVICES provides.

This also has the effect of moving the registration of CPUs from subsys to
driver core initialisation, prior to any initcalls running.

b9d73218d7 treewide: change conditional prompt for choices to 'depends on'
While Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.rst provides a brief
explanation, there are recurring confusions regarding the usage of a
prompt followed by 'if <expr>'. This conditional controls _only_ the
prompt.

A typical usage is as follows:

    menuconfig BLOCK
            bool "Enable the block layer" if EXPERT
            default y

When EXPERT=n, the prompt is hidden, but this config entry is still
active, and BLOCK is set to its default value 'y'. This is reasonable
because you are likely want to enable the block device support. When
EXPERT=y, the prompt is shown, allowing you to toggle BLOCK.

Please note that it is different from 'depends on EXPERT', which would
enable and disable the entire config entry.

However, this conditional prompt has never worked in a choice block.

The following two work in the same way: when EXPERT is disabled, the
choice block is entirely disabled.

[Test Code 1]

    choice
            prompt "choose" if EXPERT

    config A
            bool "A"

    config B
            bool "B"

    endchoice

[Test Code 2]

    choice
            prompt "choose"
            depends on EXPERT

    config A
            bool "A"

    config B
            bool "B"

    endchoice

I believe the first case should hide only the prompt, producing the
default:

   CONFIG_A=y
   # CONFIG_B is not set

The next commit will change (fix) the behavior of the conditional prompt
in choice blocks.

I see several choice blocks wrongly using a conditional prompt, where
'depends on' makes more sense.

To preserve the current behavior, this commit converts such misuses.

I did not touch the following entry in arch/x86/Kconfig:

    choice
            prompt "Memory split" if EXPERT
            default VMSPLIT_3G

This is truly the correct use of the conditional prompt; when EXPERT=n,
this choice block should silently select the reasonable VMSPLIT_3G,
although the resulting PAGE_OFFSET will not be affected anyway.

Presumably, the one in fs/jffs2/Kconfig is also correct, but I converted
it to 'depends on' to avoid any potential behavioral change.

2335c9cb83 ARM: 9407/1: Add support for STACKLEAK gcc plugin
Add the STACKLEAK gcc plugin to arm32 by adding the helper used by
stackleak common code: on_thread_stack(). It initialize the stack with the
poison value before returning from system calls which improves the kernel
security. Additionally, this disables the plugin in EFI stub code and
decompress code, which are out of scope for the protection.

Before the test on Qemu versatilepb board:
	# echo STACKLEAK_ERASING  > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
	lkdtm: Performing direct entry STACKLEAK_ERASING
	lkdtm: XFAIL: stackleak is not supported on this arch (HAVE_ARCH_STACKLEAK=n)

After:
	# echo STACKLEAK_ERASING  > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
	lkdtm: Performing direct entry STACKLEAK_ERASING
	lkdtm: stackleak stack usage:
	  high offset: 80 bytes

ed0f941022 ARM: 9404/1: arm32: enable HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION
The current arm32 architecture does not yet support the
HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION feature. arm32 is widely used in
embedded scenarios, and enabling this feature would be beneficial for
reducing the size of the kernel image.

In order to make this work, we keep the necessary tables by annotating
them with KEEP, also it requires further changes to linker script to KEEP
some tables and wildcard compiler generated sections into the right place.
When using ld.lld for linking, KEEP is not recognized within the OVERLAY
command, and Ard proposed a concise method to solve this problem.

It boots normally with defconfig, vexpress_defconfig and tinyconfig.

The size comparison of zImage is as follows:
defconfig       vexpress_defconfig      tinyconfig
5137712         5138024                 424192          no dce
5032560         4997824                 298384          dce
2.0%            2.7%                    29.7%           shrink

When using smaller config file, there is a significant reduction in the
size of the zImage.

We also tested this patch on a commercially available single-board
computer, and the comparison is as follows:
a15eb_config
2161384         no dce
2092240         dce
3.2%            shrink

The zImage size has been reduced by approximately 3.2%, which is 70KB on
2.1M.
