[PATCH v5 04/17] arm64: Don't trap host pointer auth use to EL2

From: Kristina Martsenko <hidden>
Date: 2018-10-05 08:50:01
Also in: kvmarm, linux-arch, lkml
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), kernel virtual machine for arm64 (kvm/arm64), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Marc Zyngier, Oliver Upton, Linus Torvalds

From: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>

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.
