367 This option adds an alternative code sequence to work around ARM
368 erratum 826319 on Cortex-A53 parts up to r0p2 with an AMBA 4 ACE or
369 AXI master interface and an L2 cache.
371 If a Cortex-A53 uses an AMBA AXI4 ACE interface to other processors

390 erratum 827319 on Cortex-A53 parts up to r0p2 with an AMBA 5 CHI
391 master interface and an L2 cache.
393 Under certain conditions this erratum can cause a clean line eviction
394 to occur at the same time as another transaction to the same address
395 on the AMBA 5 CHI interface, which can cause data corruption if the
396 interconnect reorders the two transactions.
398 The workaround promotes data cache clean instructions to
399 data cache clean-and-invalidate.

412 erratum 824069 on Cortex-A53 parts up to r0p2 when it is connected
413 to a coherent interconnect.
415 If a Cortex-A53 processor is executing a store or prefetch for
416 write instruction at the same time as a processor in another
417 cluster is executing a cache maintenance operation to the same
418 address, then this erratum might cause a clean cache line to be
419 incorrectly marked as dirty.
421 The workaround promotes data cache clean instructions to
422 data cache clean-and-invalidate.

438 If the processor is executing a load and store exclusive sequence at
439 the same time as a processor in another cluster is executing a cache
440 maintenance operation to the same address, then this erratum might
441 cause data corruption.

458 Affected Cortex-A57 parts might deadlock when exclusive load/store
459 instructions to Write-Back memory are mixed with Device loads.
461 The workaround is to promote device loads to use Load-Acquire
463 Please note that this does not necessarily enable the workaround,
464 as it depends on the alternative framework, which will only patch
465 the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.
469 config ARM64_ERRATUM_834220
470 bool "Cortex-A57: 834220: Stage 2 translation fault might be incorrectly reported in presence of a Stage 1 fault"
474 This option adds an alternative code sequence to work around ARM
475 erratum 834220 on Cortex-A57 parts up to r1p2.
477 Affected Cortex-A57 parts might report a Stage 2 translation
478 fault as the result of a Stage 1 fault for load crossing a
479 page boundary when there is a permission or device memory
480 alignment fault at Stage 1 and a translation fault at Stage 2.
482 The workaround is to verify that the Stage 1 translation
483 doesn't generate a fault before handling the Stage 2 fault.

485 as it depends on the alternative framework, which will only patch
486 the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.
490 config ARM64_ERRATUM_845719
491 bool "Cortex-A53: 845719: a load might read incorrect data"
495 This option adds an alternative code sequence to work around ARM
496 erratum 845719 on Cortex-A53 parts up to r0p4.
498 When running a compat (AArch32) userspace on an affected Cortex-A53
499 part, a load at EL0 from a virtual address that matches the bottom 32
500 bits of the virtual address used by a recent load at (AArch64) EL1
501 might return incorrect data.
503 The workaround is to write the contextidr_el1 register on exception
504 return to a 32-bit task.
505 Please note that this does not necessarily enable the workaround,
506 as it depends on the alternative framework, which will only patch
507 the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.

530 This option adds a workaround for ARM Cortex-A55 Erratum 1024718.
532 Affected Cortex-A55 cores (all revisions) could cause incorrect
533 update of the hardware dirty bit when the DBM/AP bits are updated
534 without a break-before-make. The workaround is to disable the usage

621 On the affected Cortex-A76 cores (r0p0 to r3p1), software stepping
622 of a system call instruction (SVC) can prevent recognition of
623 subsequent interrupts when software stepping is disabled in the

1366 hardware updates of the access and dirty information in page
1367 table entries. When enabled in TCR_EL1 (HA and HD bits) on
1368 capable processors, accesses to pages with PTE_AF cleared will
1369 set this bit instead of raising an access flag fault.
1370 Similarly, writes to read-only pages with the DBM bit set will

1382 Privileged Access Never (PAN; part of the ARMv8.1 Extensions)

1386 Choosing this option will cause any unprotected (not using
1387 copy_to_user et al) memory access to fail with a permission fault.

1438 CPUs that support the Reliability, Availability and Serviceability
1439 (RAS) Extensions, part of ARMv8.2 are able to track faults and
1440 errors, classify them and report them to software.
1442 On CPUs with these extensions system software can use additional
1443 barriers to determine if faults are pending and read the
1444 classification from a new set of registers.
1446 Selecting this feature will allow the kernel to use these barriers
1447 and access the new registers if the system supports the extension.
1448 Platform RAS features may additionally depend on firmware support.

1472 Pointer authentication (part of the ARMv8.3 Extensions) provides
1473 instructions for signing and authenticating pointers against secret
1474 keys, which can be used to mitigate Return Oriented Programming (ROP)
1477 This option enables these instructions at EL0 (i.e. for userspace).
1478 Choosing this option will cause the kernel to initialise secret keys
1479 for each process at exec() time, with these keys being
1480 context-switched along with the process.
1482 The feature is detected at runtime. If the feature is not present in
1483 hardware it will not be advertised to userspace/KVM guest nor will it
1486 If the feature is present on the boot CPU but not on a late CPU, then

1585 BTI is intended to provide complementary protection to other control
1586 flow integrity protection mechanisms, such as the Pointer
1587 authentication mechanism provided as part of the ARMv8.3 Extensions.
1588 For this reason, it does not make sense to enable this option without
1589 also enabling support for pointer authentication. Thus, when
1590 enabling this option you should also select ARM64_PTR_AUTH=y.
1592 Userspace binaries must also be specifically compiled to make use of
1593 this mechanism. If you say N here or the hardware does not support

1774 kernel binary at runtime to a different virtual address than the

1789 It is the bootloader's job to provide entropy, by passing a
1790 random u64 value in /chosen/kaslr-seed at kernel entry.
1792 When booting via the UEFI stub, it will invoke the firmware's
1793 EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL implementation (if available) to supply entropy

1805 covering the core kernel. This way, it is less likely for modules
1806 to leak information about the location of core kernel data structures
1807 but it does imply that function calls between modules and the core
1808 kernel will need to be resolved via veneers in the module PLT.
1810 When this option is not set, the module region will be randomized over
1811 a limited range that contains the [_stext, _etext] interval of the
1812 core kernel, so branch relocations are almost always in range unless
