ARM: mm: implement LoUIS API for cache maintenance ops ARM v7 architecture introduced the concept of cache levels and related control registers. New processors like A7 and A15 embed an L2 unified cache controller that becomes part of the cache level hierarchy. Some operations in the kernel like cpu_suspend and __cpu_disable do not require a flush of the entire cache hierarchy to DRAM but just the cache levels belonging to the Level of Unification Inner Shareable (LoUIS), which in most of ARM v7 systems correspond to L1. The current cache flushing API used in cpu_suspend and __cpu_disable, flush_cache_all(), ends up flushing the whole cache hierarchy since for v7 it cleans and invalidates all cache levels up to Level of Coherency (LoC) which cripples system performance when used in hot paths like hotplug and cpuidle. Therefore a new kernel cache maintenance API must be added to cope with latest ARM system requirements. This patch adds flush_cache_louis() to the ARM kernel cache maintenance API. This function cleans and invalidates all data cache levels up to the Level of Unification Inner Shareable (LoUIS) and invalidates the instruction cache for processors that support it (> v7). This patch also creates an alias of the cache LoUIS function to flush_kern_all for all processor versions prior to v7, so that the current cache flushing behaviour is unchanged for those processors. v7 cache maintenance code implements a cache LoUIS function that cleans and invalidates the D-cache up to LoUIS and invalidates the I-cache, according to the new API.

[ARM] 3762/1: Fix ptrace cache coherency bug for ARM1136 VIPT nonaliasing Harvard caches Patch from George G. Davis Resolve ARM1136 VIPT non-aliasing cache coherency issues observed when using ptrace to set breakpoints and cleanup copy_{to,from}_user_page() while we're here as requested by Russell King because "it's also far too heavy on non-v6 CPUs". NOTES: 1. Only access_process_vm() calls copy_{to,from}_user_page(). 2. access_process_vm() calls get_user_pages() to pin down the "page". 3. get_user_pages() calls flush_dcache_page(page) which ensures cache coherency between kernel and userspace mappings of "page". However flush_dcache_page(page) may not invalidate I-Cache over this range for all cases, specifically, I-Cache is not invalidated for the VIPT non-aliasing case. So memory is consistent between kernel and user space mappings of "page" but I-Cache may still be hot over this range. IOW, we don't have to worry about flush_cache_page() before memcpy(). 4. Now, for the copy_to_user_page() case, after memcpy(), we must flush the caches so memory is consistent with kernel cache entries and invalidate the I-Cache if this mm region is executable. We don't need to do anything after memcpy() for the copy_from_user_page() case since kernel cache entries will be invalidated via the same process above if we access "page" again. The flush_ptrace_access() function (borrowed from SPARC64 implementation) is added to handle cache flushing after memcpy() for the copy_to_user_page() case. Signed-off-by: George G.

mm: remove flush_kernel_dcache_page flush_kernel_dcache_page is a rather confusing interface that implements a subset of flush_dcache_page by not being able to properly handle page cache mapped pages. The only callers left are in the exec code as all other previous callers were incorrect as they could have dealt with page cache pages. Replace the calls to flush_kernel_dcache_page with calls to flush_dcache_page, which for all architectures does either exactly the same thing, can contains one or more of the following: 1) an optimization to defer the cache flush for page cache pages not mapped into userspace 2) additional flushing for mapped page cache pages if cache aliases are possible Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210712060928.4161649-7-hch@lst.de Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@intel.com> Cc: Alex Shi <alexs@kernel.org> Cc: Geoff Levand <geoff@infradead.org> Cc: Greentime Hu <green.hu@gmail.com> Cc: Guo Ren <guoren@kernel.org> Cc: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Cc: "James E.J.
