To allow EL0 (and/or EL1) to use pointer authentication functionality, we must ensure that pointer authentication instructions and accesses to pointer authentication keys are not trapped to EL2. This patch ensures that HCR_EL2 is configured appropriately when the kernel is booted at EL2. For non-VHE kernels we set HCR_EL2.{API,APK}, ensuring that EL1 can access keys and permit EL0 use of instructions. For VHE kernels host EL0 (TGE && E2H) is unaffected by these settings, and it doesn't matter how we configure HCR_EL2.{API,APK}, so we don't bother setting them. This does not enable support for KVM guests, since KVM manages HCR_EL2 itself when running VMs. Reviewed-by: Richard Henderson <richard.henderson@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Kristina Martsenko <kristina.martsenko@arm.com> Acked-by: Christoffer Dall <christoffer.dall@arm.com> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Cc: kvmarm@lists.cs.columbia.edu Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
