arm64: add support to dump the kernel page tables In a similar manner to arm, it's useful to be able to dump the page tables to verify permissions and memory types. Add a debugfs file to check the page tables.

arm64: enable CONFIG_SET_MODULE_RONX by default The SET_MODULE_RONX protections are effectively the same as the DEBUG_RODATA protections we enabled by default back in commit 57efac2f7108e325 ("arm64: enable CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA by default"). It seems unusual to have one but not the other. As evidenced by the help text, the rationale appears to be that SET_MODULE_RONX interacts poorly with tracing and patching, but both of these make use of the insn framework, which takes SET_MODULE_RONX into account. Any remaining issues are bugs which should be fixed regardless of the default state of the option. This patch enables DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX by default, and replaces the help text with a new wording derived from the DEBUG_RODATA help text, which better describes the functionality. Previously, the DEBUG_RODATA entry was inconsistently indented with spaces, which are replaced with tabs as with the other Kconfig entries. Additionally, the wording of recommended defaults is made consistent for all options. These are placed in a new paragraph, unquoted, as a full sentence (with a period/full stop) as this appears to be the most common form per $(git grep 'in doubt').

arm64: mm: update CONTEXTIDR register to contain PID of current process This patch is a port of 575320d62 ("ARM: 7445/1: mm: update CONTEXTIDR register to contain PID of current process") from ARM that introduces a new Kconfig option which, when enabled, causes the kernel to write the PID of the current task into the CONTEXTIDR register on context switch. This is useful when analysing hardware trace, since writes to this register can be configured to emit an event into the trace stream.

arm64: Enable TEXT_OFFSET fuzzing The arm64 Image header contains a text_offset field which bootloaders are supposed to read to determine the offset (from a 2MB aligned "start of memory" per booting.txt) at which to load the kernel. The offset is not well respected by bootloaders at present, and due to the lack of variation there is little incentive to support it. This is unfortunate for the sake of future kernels where we may wish to vary the text offset (even zeroing it). This patch adds options to arm64 to enable fuzz-testing of text_offset. CONFIG_ARM64_RANDOMIZE_TEXT_OFFSET forces the text offset to a random 16-byte aligned value value in the range [0..2MB) upon a build of the kernel. It is recommended that distribution kernels enable randomization to test bootloaders such that any compliance issues can be fixed early.

arm64: add better page protections to arm64 Add page protections for arm64 similar to those in arm. This is for security reasons to prevent certain classes of exploits. The current method: - Map all memory as either RWX or RW. We round to the nearest section to avoid creating page tables before everything is mapped - Once everything is mapped, if either end of the RWX section should not be X, we split the PMD and remap as necessary - When initmem is to be freed, we change the permissions back to RW (using stop machine if necessary to flush the TLB) - If CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set, the read only sections are set read only.

arm64: simplify kernel segment mapping granularity The mapping of the kernel consist of four segments, each of which is mapped with different permission attributes and/or lifetimes. To optimize the TLB and translation table footprint, we define various opaque constants in the linker script that resolve to different aligment values depending on the page size and whether CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA is set. Considering that - a 4 KB granule kernel benefits from a 64 KB segment alignment (due to the fact that it allows the use of the contiguous bit), - the minimum alignment of the .data segment is THREAD_SIZE already, not PAGE_SIZE (i.e., we already have padding between _data and the start of the .data payload in many cases), - 2 MB is a suitable alignment value on all granule sizes, either for mapping directly (level 2 on 4 KB), or via the contiguous bit (level 3 on 16 KB and 64 KB), - anything beyond 2 MB exceeds the minimum alignment mandated by the boot protocol, and can only be mapped efficiently if the physical alignment happens to be the same, we can simplify this by standardizing on 64 KB (or 2 MB) explicitly, i.e., regardless of granule size, all segments are aligned either to 64 KB, or to 2 MB if CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA=y. This also means we can drop the Kconfig dependency of CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA on CONFIG_ARM64_4K_PAGES.

coresight: moving to new "hwtracing" directory Keeping drivers related to HW tracing on ARM, i.e coresight, under "drivers/coresight" doesn't make sense when other architectures start rolling out technologies of the same nature. As such creating a new "drivers/hwtracing" directory where all drivers of the same kind can reside, reducing namespace pollution under "drivers/".
