FEAT_SCTLR2 adds SCTLR2_EL1 and SCTLR2_EL2 system registers But access into
these register from EL2 and below trap to EL3 unless SCR_EL3.D128En is set.

Enable access to SCTLR2_ELx registers when they are implemented.

I think this should be first in the series, since SCTLR2 can exist
without D128, but not vice-versa.

The SCTLR2_ELx registers reset to UNKNOWN values when the highest
implemented exception level is not ELx, so we need to initialize those
to safe values. Otherwise a kernel which is not aware of SCTLR2_ELx will
be subject to arbitrary behaviour as a result of the SCTLR2_ELx bits
which it will not have configured.

I know that we've failed to do that for other things (FGT and HCRX), and
those are latent bugs / mistakes in our appraoch that I'll see about
fixing.

Mark.

Will fix a small nit here, s/SCR_EL3.D128En/SCR_EL3.SCTLR2En/ ^^^

Sure, will move it as the first patch in the series.

Both SCTLR2_EL1 and SCTLR2_EL2 has the same register fields layout
except the very last bit i.e SCTLR2_EL2.EMEC which is available in
SCTLR2_EL2 but not in SCTLR2_EL1.

AFAICT all the above register fields are applicable for newer arch
features which the current kernel is not even aware about. So even
if the kernel is not ware about SCTLR2_EL2 or SCTLR2_EL1 registers,
there will not be any difference in behaviour related to these new
arch features.

Search for the registers in the current mainline kernel.

$git grep SCTLR2_EL

arch/arm64/include/asm/sysreg.h:#define SYS_SCTLR2_EL2                  sys_reg(3, 4, 1, 0, 3)
arch/arm64/include/asm/sysreg.h:#define SYS_SCTLR2_EL12                 sys_reg(3, 5, 1, 0, 3)
arch/arm64/kvm/emulate-nested.c:        SR_TRAP(SYS_SCTLR2_EL2,         CGT_HCR_NV),

$git grep SCTLR2En
arch/arm64/kvm/nested.c:                res0 |= HCRX_EL2_SCTLR2En;
arch/arm64/tools/sysreg:Field   15      SCTLR2En

Although if we are looking for safer values, guess resetting these
two registers might be sufficient here ?

+       if (mrs_field(ID_AA64MMFR3_EL1, SCTLRX)) {
+               scr |= SCR_EL3_SCTLR2En;
+               msr(SCTLR2_EL2, 0);
+               msr(SCTLR2_EL1, 0);
+       }

Sure.

There several are changes to existing behaviours. Looking at ARM DDI
0487K.a:

* EASE changes the way external aborts are routed, which could surprise
  the exception handling code.

* NMEA causes SError to be taken regardless of PSTATE.A. This *will*
  break exception handling.

... and regardless we have no idea how any of the RES0 bits will be used
in future.

Looking at DDI 0601 ID070124 from:

  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0601/2024-06/?lang=en

... there are other bits that would be problematic too. Consider how
EnPACM0 works with a kernel that is not PACM-aware but a userspace that
is, especially if CPUs have mismatched reset values.

Using zero for both looks fine to me.
