Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull more arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas: "As I mentioned in the last pull request, there's a second batch of security updates for arm64 with mitigations for Spectre/v1 and an improved one for Spectre/v2 (via a newly defined firmware interface API). Spectre v1 mitigation: - back-end version of array_index_mask_nospec() - masking of the syscall number to restrict speculation through the syscall table - masking of __user pointers prior to deference in uaccess routines Spectre v2 mitigation update: - using the new firmware SMC calling convention specification update - removing the current PSCI GET_VERSION firmware call mitigation as vendors are deploying new SMCCC-capable firmware - additional branch predictor hardening for synchronous exceptions and interrupts while in user mode Meltdown v3 mitigation update: - Cavium Thunder X is unaffected but a hardware erratum gets in the way. The kernel now starts with the page tables mapped as global and switches to non-global if kpti needs to be enabled. Other: - Theoretical trylock bug fixed" * tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (38 commits) arm64: Kill PSCI_GET_VERSION as a variant-2 workaround arm64: Add ARM_SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_1 BP hardening support arm/arm64: smccc: Implement SMCCC v1.1 inline primitive arm/arm64: smccc: Make function identifiers an unsigned quantity firmware/psci: Expose SMCCC version through psci_ops firmware/psci: Expose PSCI conduit arm64: KVM: Add SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_1 fast handling arm64: KVM: Report SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_1 BP hardening support arm/arm64: KVM: Turn kvm_psci_version into a static inline arm/arm64: KVM: Advertise SMCCC v1.1 arm/arm64: KVM: Implement PSCI 1.0 support arm/arm64: KVM: Add smccc accessors to PSCI code arm/arm64: KVM: Add PSCI_VERSION helper arm/arm64: KVM: Consolidate the PSCI include files arm64: KVM: Increment PC after handling an SMC trap arm: KVM: Fix SMCCC handling of unimplemented SMC/HVC calls arm64: KVM: Fix SMCCC handling of unimplemented SMC/HVC calls arm64: entry: Apply BP hardening for suspicious interrupts from EL0 arm64: entry: Apply BP hardening for high-priority synchronous exceptions arm64: futex: Mask __user pointers prior to dereference ...
