Currently, users are allowed to map static shared memory in a
non-direct-mapped way for direct-mapped domains. This can lead to
clashing of guest memory spaces. Also, the current extended region
finding logic only removes the host physical addresses of the
static shared memory areas for direct-mapped domains, which may be
inconsistent with the guest memory map if users map the static
shared memory in a non-direct-mapped way. This will lead to incorrect
extended region calculation results.
To make things easier, add restriction that static shared memory
should also be direct-mapped for direct-mapped domains. Check the
host physical address to be matched with guest physical address when
parsing the device tree. Document this restriction in the doc.

Cortex-A77 cores (r0p0, r1p0) could deadlock on a sequence of a
store-exclusive or read of PAR_EL1 and a load with device or non-cacheable
memory attributes.
A workaround is available, but it depends on a firmware counterpart.
The proposed workaround from the errata document is to modify the software
running at EL1 and above to include a DMB SY before and after accessing
PAR_EL1.
In conjunction to the above, the firmware needs to use a specific write
sequence to several IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED registers to have the hardware
insert a DMB SY after all load-exclusive and store-exclusive instructions.
Apply the workaround to Xen where PAR_EL1 is read, implementing an helper
function to do that.
Since Xen can be interrupted by irqs in any moment, add a barrier on
entry/exit when we are running on the affected cores.
A guest without the workaround can deadlock the system, so warn the users
of Xen with the above type of cores to use only trusted guests, by
printing a message on Xen startup.

At the moment, Xen does not support booting gzip compressed uImages.
This is because we are trying to decompress the kernel before probing
the u-boot header. This leads to a failure as the header always appears
at the top of the image (and therefore obscuring the gzip header).
Move the call to kernel_uimage_probe before kernel_decompress and make
the function self-containing by taking the following actions:
- take a pointer to struct bootmodule as a parameter,
- check the comp field of a u-boot header to determine compression type,
- in case of compressed image, call kernel_decompress passing uImage
header size as an offset to gzip header,
- set up zimage.{kernel_addr,len} accordingly,
- return -ENOENT in case of a u-boot header not found to distinguish it
amongst other return values and make it the only case for falling
through to try to probe other image types.
Modify kernel_decompress to take an additional parameter being an offset
to a gzip header from start address. This is needed so that a function
can first operate on a region containing actually compressed kernel (in case
of compressed uImage, size of u-boot header is an offset to a gzip header)
and then at the end pass the entire region (as it was before taking an offset
into account) to fw_unreserved_regions for freeing.
This approach avoids splitting the uImage probing into 2 stages (executed
before and after decompression) which otherwise would be necessary to
properly parse header, update boot module start and size before
decompression and update zimage.{kernel_addr,len} afterwards.
Remove the limitation from the booting.txt documentation.

Currently, kernel_uimage_probe() does not read the load/entry point address
set in the uImge header. Thus, info->zimage.start is 0 (default value). This
causes, kernel_zimage_place() to treat the binary (contained within uImage)
as position independent executable. Thus, it loads it at an incorrect
address.
The correct approach would be to read "uimage.load" and set
info->zimage.start. This will ensure that the binary is loaded at the
correct address. Also, read "uimage.ep" and set info->entry (ie kernel entry
address).
If user provides load address (ie "uimage.load") as 0x0, then the image is
treated as position independent executable. Xen can load such an image at
any address it considers appropriate. A position independent executable
cannot have a fixed entry point address.
This behavior is applicable for both arm32 and arm64 platforms.
Earlier for arm32 and arm64 platforms, Xen was ignoring the load and entry
point address set in the uImage header. With this commit, Xen will use them.
This makes the behavior of Xen consistent with uboot for uimage headers.
Users who want to use Xen with statically partitioned domains, can provide
non zero load address and entry address for the dom0/domU kernel. It is
required that the load and entry address provided must be within the memory
region allocated by Xen.
A deviation from uboot behaviour is that we consider load address == 0x0,
to denote that the image supports position independent execution. This
is to make the behavior consistent across uImage and zImage.

- For dom0, P2M pages should come from heap directly instead of p2m

- For xl guests, the setting of the p2m pool is called in
`XEN_DOMCTL_shadow_op` and the p2m pool is destroyed in

- For dom0less domUs, the setting of the p2m pool is called before

pool size by `xen,domain-p2m-mem-mb` dts property.
To actually allocate/free pages from the p2m pool, this commit adds
two helper functions namely `p2m_alloc_page` and `p2m_free_page` to
`struct p2m_domain`. By replacing the `alloc_domheap_page` and

compatible interfaces as well. These interfaces have lot in common,
but mostly differ in offsets and bits for some registers.
Introduce "EARLY_PRINTK_VERSION" config option to choose which
interface version should be used (to properly apply register offsets).
Please note, nothing has been technically changed for Renesas "Lager"
and other supported boards (SCIF).
The "EARLY_PRINTK_VERSION" option for that board should be empty:
CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK=scif,0xe6e60000

Current sentence is not entirely correct. Since SCIF0 interface is
applicable for Lager board, but is not applicable for all R-Car H2
based boards. For example, Stout board uses SCIFA0 interface.

Early version of Cortex-A76 can end-up with corrupt TLBs if they
speculate an AT instruction while the S1/S2 system registers are in an
inconsistent state.
This can happen during guest context switch and when invalidating the
TLBs for other than the current VMID.
The workaround implemented in Xen will:
- Use an empty stage-2 with a reserved VMID while context switching
between 2 guests
- Use an empty stage-2 with the VMID where TLBs need to be flushed

Backport commit 3714ce1d6655098ee69ede632883e5874d67e4ab
"iommu/arm-smmu: Disable stalling faults for all endpoints" from the
Linux kernel. This works-around Erratum #842869.
Original commit message:
Enabling stalling faults can result in hardware deadlock on poorly
designed systems, particularly those with a PCI root complex upstream of
the SMMU.
Although it's not really Linux's job to save hardware integrators from
their own misfortune, it *is* our job to stop userspace (e.g. VFIO
clients) from hosing the system for everybody else, even if they might
already be required to have elevated privileges.
Given that the fault handling code currently executes entirely in IRQ
context, there is nothing that can sensibly be done to recover from
things like page faults anyway, so let's rip this code out for now and
avoid the potential for deadlock.
