Currently, we detect CPU support for 52-bit virtual addressing (LVA)
extremely early, before creating the kernel page tables or enabling the
MMU. We cannot override the feature this early, and so large virtual
addressing is always enabled on CPUs that implement support for it if
the software support for it was enabled at build time. It also means we
rely on non-trivial code in asm to deal with this feature.

Given that both the ID map and the TTBR1 mapping of the kernel image are
guaranteed to be 48-bit addressable, it is not actually necessary to
enable support this early, and instead, we can model it as a CPU
feature. That way, we can rely on code patching to get the correct
TCR.T1SZ values programmed on secondary boot and suspend from resume.

On the primary boot path, we simply enable the MMU with 48-bit virtual
addressing initially, and update TCR.T1SZ from C code if LVA is
supported, right before creating the kernel mapping. Given that TTBR1
still points to reserved_pg_dir at this point, updating TCR.T1SZ should
be safe without the need for explicit TLB maintenance.

Since this gets rid of all accesses to the vabits_actual variable from
asm code that occurred before TCR.T1SZ had been programmed, we no longer
have a need for this variable, and we can replace it with a C expression
that produces the correct value directly, based on the value of TCR.T1SZ.

I'm not sure we can skip the TLBI here. There's some weird rule in the
ARM ARM that if you change any of fields that may be cached in the TLB,
maintenance is needed even if the MMU is off. From the latest version
(I.a, I didn't dig into H.a),

R_VNRFW:
  When a System register field is modified and that field is permitted
  to be cached in a TLB, software is required to invalidate all TLB
  entries that might be affected by the field, at any address
  translation stage in the translation regime even if the translation
  stage is disabled, using the appropriate VMID and ASID, after any
  required System register synchronization.

Don't we already rely on this in cpu_set_default_tcr_t0sz() /
cpu_set_idmap_tcr_t0sz() ?

Yeah, we do this and depending on how you read the above rule, we may
need to move the local_flush_tlb_all() line after T0SZ setting.

OK, so wouldn't this mean that we cannot change TxSZ at all without
going through a MMU off/on cycle?

I don't think so. The way I see it is that the change is not guaranteed
to take effect until we invalidate the TLBs. We don't risk fetching
random stuff in the TLB since we have the reserved TTBR0 at that point.
If the subsequent cpu_switch_mm() changed the ASID, in some
interpretation of the ARM ARM we could have skipped the TLBI but that's
not the case anyway.

Looking for Mark R's opinion as I recall he talked to the architects in
the past about this (though I think it was in the context of SCTLR_EL1).

The architecture is unfortunately vague here.

From prior discussions with architects, the general rule was "if it's permitted
to be cached in a TLB, an update must be followed by a TLBI for that update to
take effect, regardless of SCTLR_ELx.M". The architecture isn't very specific
about what scope fo maintenance is required (e.g. if certain fields are tagged
by ASID/VMID), but I beleive it's sufficient to use a (VM)ALL for the current
translation regime (which might be stronger than necessary).

So for this case, my understanding is:

1) When changing TxSZ, we need a subsequent invalidate before the change is
   guaranteed to take effect. So I believe that what we do today isn't quite
   right.

2) During the window between writing to TxSZ and completing the invalidation,
   I'm not sure how the MMU is permitted to behave w.r.t. intermediate walk
   entries. I could imagine that those become (CONSTRAINED) UNPREDICTABLE , and
   that we might need to ensure those are invalidated (or inactive and prior
   walks completed) before we write to TCR_EL1.
   
I can go chase this up with the architects; in the mean time my thinking would
be that we should retain the existing maintenance.

There's almost certainly more stuff that we'd need to fix in this area.

Thanks,
Mark.

OK, so that would at least mean that we can modify T1SZ while TTBR1 is
pointing to reserved_pg_dir without running the risk of TLB conflicts,
right?
 (and similarly for TTBR0). Given that we never modify TxSZ on a hot
path, sprinkling some bonus TLBIs (and pivoting via reserved_pg_dir if
needed) is hardly an issue here.

Yes, that would be helpful, thanks.

Cool; I\ll try to do that shortly, and will keep you updated.
