Atish Patra &lt;atishp@rivosinc.com&gt; says:

Here are two minor improvement/fixes in the PMU event path. The first patch
was part of the series[1]. The 2nd patch was suggested during the series
review.

While the series can only be merged once SBI v3.0 is frozen, these two
patches can be independent of SBI v3.0 and can be merged sooner. Hence, these
two patches are sent as a separate series.

<id>urn:sha1:3aff4cdbe506652da77570baccad623511628250</id>
<content type='text'>
The SBI specification allows only lower 48bits of hpmeventX to be
configured via SBI PMU. Currently, the driver masks of the higher
bits but doesn't return an error. This will lead to an additional
SBI call for config matching which should return for an invalid
event error in most of the cases.

However, if a platform(i.e Rocket and sifive cores) implements a
bitmap of all bits in the event encoding this will lead to an
incorrect event being programmed leading to user confusion.

Report the error to the user if higher bits are set during the
event mapping itself to avoid the confusion and save an additional
SBI call.

If the upper two bits has an invalid valid (0x1), the event mapping
is not reliable as it returns an uninitialized variable.

Return appropriate value for the default case.

<content type='text'>
Platform firmware event data field is allowed to be 62 bits for
Linux as uppper most two bits are reserved to indicate SBI fw or
platform specific firmware events.
However, the event data field is masked as per the hardware raw
event mask which is not correct.

Fix the platform firmware event data field with proper mask.

Clean up the existing export namespace code along the same lines of
commit 33def8498fdd ("treewide: Convert macro and uses of __section(foo)
to __section("foo")") and for the same reason, it is not desired for the
namespace argument to be a macro expansion itself.

The portid_bits and deviceid_bits were set only for XP type nodes in
the arm_cmn_discover() and it confused other nodes to find XP nodes.
Copy the both bits from the XP nodes directly when it sets up a new

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - Support for running Linux in a protected VM under the Arm
   Confidential Compute Architecture (CCA)

 - Guarded Control Stack user-space support. Current patches follow the
   x86 ABI of implicitly creating a shadow stack on clone(). Subsequent
   patches (already on the list) will add support for clone3() allowing
   finer-grained control of the shadow stack size and placement from
   libc

 - AT_HWCAP3 support (not running out of HWCAP2 bits yet but we are
   getting close with the upcoming dpISA support)

 - Other arch features:

     - In-kernel use of the memcpy instructions, FEAT_MOPS (previously
       only exposed to user; uaccess support not merged yet)

     - MTE: hugetlbfs support and the corresponding kselftests

     - Optimise CRC32 using the PMULL instructions

     - Support for FEAT_HAFT enabling ARCH_HAS_NONLEAF_PMD_YOUNG

     - Optimise the kernel TLB flushing to use the range operations

     - POE/pkey (permission overlays): further cleanups after bringing
       the signal handler in line with the x86 behaviour for 6.12

 - arm64 perf updates:

     - Support for the NXP i.MX91 PMU in the existing IMX driver

     - Support for Ampere SoCs in the Designware PCIe PMU driver

     - Support for Marvell's 'PEM' PCIe PMU present in the 'Odyssey' SoC

     - Support for Samsung's 'Mongoose' CPU PMU

     - Support for PMUv3.9 finer-grained userspace counter access
       control

     - Switch back to platform_driver::remove() now that it returns
       'void'

     - Add some missing events for the CXL PMU driver

 - Miscellaneous arm64 fixes/cleanups:

     - Page table accessors cleanup: type updates, drop unused macros,
       reorganise arch_make_huge_pte() and clean up pte_mkcont(), sanity
       check addresses before runtime P4D/PUD folding

     - Command line override for ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.ECV (advertising the
       FEAT_ECV for the generic timers) allowing Linux to boot with
       firmware deployments that don't set SCTLR_EL3.ECVEn

     - ACPI/arm64: tighten the check for the array of platform timer
       structures and adjust the error handling procedure in
       gtdt_parse_timer_block()

     - Optimise the cache flush for the uprobes xol slot (skip if no
       change) and other uprobes/kprobes cleanups

     - Fix the context switching of tpidrro_el0 when kpti is enabled

     - Dynamic shadow call stack fixes

     - Sysreg updates
