When flushing the TLB at PL2 in response to remapping at stage-2 or VMID
rollover, we have a dsb instruction to ensure completion of the command
before continuing.
Since we only care about other processors for TLB invalidation, use the
inner-shareable variant of the dsb instruction instead.

Our HYP init code suffers from two major design issues:
- it cannot support CPU hotplug, as we tear down the idmap very early
- it cannot perform a TLB invalidation when switching from init to
runtime mappings, as pages are manipulated from PL1 exclusively
The hotplug problem mandates that we keep two sets of page tables
(boot and runtime). The TLB problem mandates that we're able to
transition from one PGD to another while in HYP, invalidating the TLBs
in the process.
To be able to do this, we need to share a page between the two page
tables. A page that will have the same VA in both configurations. All we
need is a VA that has the following properties:
- This VA can't be used to represent a kernel mapping.
- This VA will not conflict with the physical address of the kernel text
The vectors page seems to satisfy this requirement:
- The kernel never maps anything else there
- The kernel text being copied at the beginning of the physical memory,
it is unlikely to use the last 64kB (I doubt we'll ever support KVM
on a system with something like 4MB of RAM, but patches are very
welcome).
Let's call this VA the trampoline VA.
Now, we map our init page at 3 locations:
- idmap in the boot pgd
- trampoline VA in the boot pgd
- trampoline VA in the runtime pgd
The init scenario is now the following:
- We jump in HYP with four parameters: boot HYP pgd, runtime HYP pgd,
runtime stack, runtime vectors
- Enable the MMU with the boot pgd
- Jump to a target into the trampoline page (remember, this is the same
physical page!)
- Now switch to the runtime pgd (same VA, and still the same physical
page!)
- Invalidate TLBs
- Set stack and vectors
- Profit! (or eret, if you only care about the code).
Note that we keep the boot mapping permanently (it is not strictly an
idmap anymore) to allow for CPU hotplug in later patches.

Sets up KVM code to handle all exceptions taken to Hyp mode.
When the kernel is booted in Hyp mode, calling an hvc instruction with r0
pointing to the new vectors, the HVBAR is changed to the the vector pointers.
This allows subsystems (like KVM here) to execute code in Hyp-mode with the
MMU disabled.
We initialize other Hyp-mode registers and enables the MMU for Hyp-mode from
the id-mapped hyp initialization code. Afterwards, the HVBAR is changed to
point to KVM Hyp vectors used to catch guest faults and to switch to Hyp mode
to perform a world-switch into a KVM guest.
Also provides memory mapping code to map required code pages, data structures,
and I/O regions accessed in Hyp mode at the same virtual address as the host
kernel virtual addresses, but which conforms to the architectural requirements
for translations in Hyp mode. This interface is added in arch/arm/kvm/arm_mmu.c
and comprises:
- create_hyp_mappings(from, to);
- create_hyp_io_mappings(from, to, phys_addr);
- free_hyp_pmds();

Targets KVM support for Cortex A-15 processors.
Contains all the framework components, make files, header files, some
tracing functionality, and basic user space API.
Only supported core is Cortex-A15 for now.
Most functionality is in arch/arm/kvm/* or arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_*.h.
