From 2bc6b218717b9d08f466f88209251d54bc09b207 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fuad Tabba Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 19:14:30 +0100 Subject: arm64/boot: Disable trapping of PMZR_EL0 writes to EL2 __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 + +===================== +Devicetree Changesets +===================== + +A Devicetree changeset is a method which allows one to apply changes +in the live tree in such a way that either the full set of changes +will be applied, or none of them will be. If an error occurs partway +through applying the changeset, then the tree will be rolled back to the +previous state. A changeset can also be removed after it has been +applied. + +When a changeset is applied, all of the changes get applied to the tree +at once before emitting OF_RECONFIG notifiers. This is so that the +receiver sees a complete and consistent state of the tree when it +receives the notifier. + +The sequence of a changeset is as follows. + +1. of_changeset_init() - initializes a changeset + +2. A number of DT tree change calls, of_changeset_attach_node(), + of_changeset_detach_node(), of_changeset_add_property(), + of_changeset_remove_property, of_changeset_update_property() to prepare + a set of changes. No changes to the active tree are made at this point. + All the change operations are recorded in the of_changeset 'entries' + list. + +3. of_changeset_apply() - Apply the changes to the tree. Either the + entire changeset will get applied, or if there is an error the tree will + be restored to the previous state. The core ensures proper serialization + through locking. An unlocked version __of_changeset_apply is available, + if needed. + +If a successfully applied changeset needs to be removed, it can be done +with of_changeset_revert(). -- cgit v1.3.1
