[PATCH 0/2] arm64: Vendor-specific errata improvements

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

	Hi Catalin, Will, et al,

This patch series attempts to improve configuration of vendor-specific
errata, by
  1. sorting them by vendor,
  2. adding platform dependencies, to avoid asking irrelevant questions
     when configuring your kernel.

Thanks for your comments!

[PATCH 1/2] arm64: Sort vendor-specific errata

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

Sort configuration options for vendor-specific errata by vendor, to
increase uniformity.
Move ARM64_WORKAROUND_REPEAT_TLBI up, as it is also selected by
ARM64_ERRATUM_1286807.

[PATCH 2/2] [RFC] arm64: Add dependencies to vendor-specific errata

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

Currently the user is asked about enabling support for each and every
vendor-specific erratum, even when support for the specific platform is
not enabled.

Fix this by adding platform dependencies to the config options
controlling support for vendor-specific errata.

Note that FUJITSU_ERRATUM_010001 is left untouched, as no config symbol
exists for the Fujitsu A64FX platform.

I'm not su1re that it makes sense to do this in general, becaose the
ARCH_* platform symbols are about plactform/SoC support (e.g. pinctrl
drivers), and these are (mostly) CPU-local and/or VM-visible.

I think that it makes sense for those to be independent because:

* future SoCs in the same family might not need the same CPU errata
  workarounds, and it's arguably just as confusing to have the option
  there.

* It prevents building a minimal VM image with all (non-virtualized)
  platform support disabled, but all possible (VM-visible) errata
  options enabled. I do that occassionally for testing/analysis, and I
  can imagine this is useful for those building images that are only
  intended to be used in VMs.

I think the change to SOCIONEXT_SYNQUACER_PREITS makes sense given
that's a platform-level detail. Arguably that should be moved into
drivers/irqchip/Kconfig.

Thanks,
Mark.

Looks fine to me, though I wonder if we should move the errata
menu to a separate Kconfig file, given that it's already longer than the
Kconfig.platforms and Kconfig.debug files at 500 lines.

Maybe a Kconfig.cpu with both the "ARMv8.x architectural features" and
errata menus?

Either way,

Most architectures over time grow a CPU selection option that is
at least somewhat orthogonal to the platform selection. I think so far
arm64 has intentionally resisted this based on the idea that the CPUs
are mostly equal and differences are better handled at runtime.

If we decide to revisit this in the future that might help both the
errata selection and give a way to e.g. build for an ARMv8.2
baseline.
This does seem pretty far out at the moment of course, given
that most SoCs we work on are still based on Cortex-A53 or A72 ;-)

True.  But at least the dependency restricts the confusion to a smaller
audience.

Oh, you also want to build a "generic" guest kernel, with all ARCH_*
symbols disabled. Let's hope a maleficent user cannot disable errata
mitigations in the guest kernel and break the host ;-)
And perhaps you do want to enable some platform-specific drivers for
VFIO pass-through?  Hence having ARCH_* dependencies on those drivers
means they cannot be enabled :-( Hmm...

OK, makes sense.

True.  But at least the dependency restricts the confusion to a smaller
audience.

Oh, you also want to build a "generic" guest kernel, with all ARCH_*
symbols disabled. Let's hope a maleficent user cannot disable errata
mitigations in the guest kernel and break the host ;-)
And perhaps you do want to enable some platform-specific drivers for
VFIO pass-through?  Hence having ARCH_* dependencies on those drivers
means they cannot be enabled :-( Hmm...

OK, makes sense.

Yup! As above I do this today for building test kernels I run on a
number of different hosts, and I'm aware of other use-cases (e.g. WSL2
or docker for mac) where you may want to do this to minimize the core
kernel either for size or security reasons.

Indeed ;)

For cases where a malicious guest could cause harm we've added
workarounds in KVM, so unless we've missed something that shouldn't be
the case.

Otherwise, a guest missing these is just shooting itself in the foot.

IIRC platform device passthrough requires an corresponding VFIO platform
driver in the host to handle reset and so on, but it does seem a shame
to not allow the user to select a driver if they really want it.

I guess there might be platform-specific PCIe drivers too, which might
work with VFIO regardless.

Thanks,
Mark.

If your SoC has a reset controller, that problem has been solved in a generic
way, cfr. "[PATCH v5] vfio: platform: Add generic reset controller support"
(https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20181113131508.18246-1-geert+renesas@glider.be/).
Unfortunately not yet upstream.

Combine with "hw/arm/sysbus-fdt: Add support for instantiating generic devices"
(https://github.com/geertu/qemu/commit/180318003c08594e8e852b2285a98184f905bfa9)
and you're set ;-)

> to not allow the user to select a driver if they really want it.

I forgot you can add "|| VIRTIO_MMIO" to the dependencies of drivers for
devices that can be used with VFIO pass-through.

Indeed. PCI is business as usual.

For Cavium servers these ARCH_* options are only used to enable some
minor (mostly platform) drivers (i2c, spi, gpio, etc.), so the options
are not of much use and I better would like to get rid of them
completely, which makes us independent and more flexible when enabling
or disabling options. In ThunderX* systems there are not many devices
that are soc or board specific, most of them are detected using
generic methods like pci or acpi. So the situation is rather
comparable to x86 systems (there are options based on vendor or core)
than to ARM embedded chips.

Using the ARCH_* options to control also enablement of cpu errata
handling would add a strong dependency here and will make that options
a requirement.

How about having core/vendor specific submenus that make switching off
options easier?

Thanks,
