arm64/boot: Disable trapping of PMZR_EL0 writes to EL2grafted
__init_el2_fgt2() writes one mask to both HDFGRTR2_EL2 and HDFGWTR2_EL2.
PMZR_EL0 is write-only, so its trap bit, nPMZR_EL0, exists only in
HDFGWTR2_EL2 and is therefore never set: a PMZR_EL0 write from the host
traps to EL2, where the nVHE hypervisor has no handler and BUG()s. The
kernel never writes PMZR_EL0, but kernel.perf_user_access=1 has the PMU
driver set PMUSERENR_EL0.UEN for a task with a user-read event, so a
write from EL0 reaches the trap and takes the host down without a panic
message.
Accumulate the HDFGWTR2_EL2 bits separately, as __init_el2_fgt() already
does for HDFGWTR_EL2, and set nPMZR_EL0 with the other FEAT_PMUv3p9
bits.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +============================ +Configurable Error Injection +============================ + +Overview +-------- + +Configurable error injection allows injecting specific block layer status codes +for sector ranges of a block device. Errors can be injected unconditionally, or +with a given probability. + +To use configurable error injection, CONFIG_BLK_ERROR_INJECTION must be enabled. + +The only interface is the error_injection debugfs file, which is created for +each registered gendisk. Writes to this file are used to create or delete rules +and reads return a list of the current error injection sites. + +Options +------- + +The following options specify the operations: + +=================== ======================================================= +add add a new rule +removeall remove all existing rules +=================== ======================================================= + +The following options specify the details of the rule for the add operation: + +=================== ======================================================= +op=<string> block layer operation this rule applies to.
