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

372 erratum 827319 on Cortex-A53 parts up to r0p2 with an AMBA 5 CHI
373 master interface and an L2 cache.
375 Under certain conditions this erratum can cause a clean line eviction
376 to occur at the same time as another transaction to the same address
377 on the AMBA 5 CHI interface, which can cause data corruption if the
378 interconnect reorders the two transactions.
380 The workaround promotes data cache clean instructions to
381 data cache clean-and-invalidate.

383 as it depends on the alternative framework, which will only patch
384 the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.

393 This option adds an alternative code sequence to work around ARM
394 erratum 824069 on Cortex-A53 parts up to r0p2 when it is connected
395 to a coherent interconnect.
397 If a Cortex-A53 processor is executing a store or prefetch for
398 write instruction at the same time as a processor in another
399 cluster is executing a cache maintenance operation to the same
400 address, then this erratum might cause a clean cache line to be
401 incorrectly marked as dirty.
403 The workaround promotes data cache clean instructions to
404 data cache clean-and-invalidate.
405 Please note that this option does not necessarily enable the
406 workaround, as it depends on the alternative framework, which will
407 only patch the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.

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

438 erratum 832075 on Cortex-A57 parts up to r1p2.
440 Affected Cortex-A57 parts might deadlock when exclusive load/store
441 instructions to Write-Back memory are mixed with Device loads.
443 The workaround is to promote device loads to use Load-Acquire
445 Please note that this does not necessarily enable the workaround,
446 as it depends on the alternative framework, which will only patch
447 the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.
451 config ARM64_ERRATUM_834220
452 bool "Cortex-A57: 834220: Stage 2 translation fault might be incorrectly reported in presence of a Stage 1 fault"
456 This option adds an alternative code sequence to work around ARM
457 erratum 834220 on Cortex-A57 parts up to r1p2.
459 Affected Cortex-A57 parts might report a Stage 2 translation
460 fault as the result of a Stage 1 fault for load crossing a
461 page boundary when there is a permission or device memory
462 alignment fault at Stage 1 and a translation fault at Stage 2.
464 The workaround is to verify that the Stage 1 translation
465 doesn't generate a fault before handling the Stage 2 fault.
466 Please note that this does not necessarily enable the workaround,
467 as it depends on the alternative framework, which will only patch
468 the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.
472 config ARM64_ERRATUM_845719
473 bool "Cortex-A53: 845719: a load might read incorrect data"
477 This option adds an alternative code sequence to work around ARM
478 erratum 845719 on Cortex-A53 parts up to r0p4.
480 When running a compat (AArch32) userspace on an affected Cortex-A53
481 part, a load at EL0 from a virtual address that matches the bottom 32
482 bits of the virtual address used by a recent load at (AArch64) EL1
483 might return incorrect data.
485 The workaround is to write the contextidr_el1 register on exception
486 return to a 32-bit task.
487 Please note that this does not necessarily enable the workaround,
488 as it depends on the alternative framework, which will only patch
489 the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.

498 This option links the kernel with '--fix-cortex-a53-843419' and

506 bool "Cortex-A55: 1024718: Update of DBM/AP bits without break before make might result in incorrect update"
509 This option adds a workaround for ARM Cortex-A55 Erratum 1024718.
511 Affected Cortex-A55 cores (r0p0, r0p1, r1p0) could cause incorrect
512 update of the hardware dirty bit when the DBM/AP bits are updated
513 without a break-before-make. The workaround is to disable the usage
514 of hardware DBM locally on the affected cores. CPUs not affected by

525 errata 1188873 and 1418040.
527 Affected Cortex-A76/Neoverse-N1 cores (r0p0 to r3p1) could

585 On the affected Cortex-A76 cores (r0p0 to r3p0), if a virtual
586 address for a cacheable mapping of a location is being
587 accessed by a core while another core is remapping the virtual
588 address to a new physical page using the recommended
589 break-before-make sequence, then under very rare circumstances
590 TLBI+DSB completes before a read using the translation being
591 invalidated has been observed by other observers. The
592 workaround repeats the TLBI+DSB operation.
594 config ARM64_ERRATUM_1463225
595 bool "Cortex-A76: Software Step might prevent interrupt recognition"
598 This option adds a workaround for Arm Cortex-A76 erratum 1463225.
600 On the affected Cortex-A76 cores (r0p0 to r3p1), software stepping
601 of a system call instruction (SVC) can prevent recognition of
602 subsequent interrupts when software stepping is disabled in the
603 exception handler of the system call and either kernel debugging
604 is enabled or VHE is in use.
606 Work around the erratum by triggering a dummy step exception
607 when handling a system call from a task that is being stepped
608 in a VHE configuration of the kernel.
612 config ARM64_ERRATUM_1542419

616 This option adds a workaround for ARM Neoverse-N1 erratum
619 Affected Neoverse-N1 cores could execute a stale instruction when
620 modified by another CPU. The workaround depends on a firmware
623 Workaround the issue by hiding the DIC feature from EL0. This
624 forces user-space to perform cache maintenance.

1413 As part of the Large System Extensions, ARMv8.1 introduces new
1414 atomic instructions that are designed specifically to scale in
1417 Say Y here to make use of these instructions for the in-kernel
1418 atomic routines. This incurs a small overhead on CPUs that do
1419 not support these instructions and requires the kernel to be
1420 built with binutils >= 2.25 in order for the new instructions
1424 bool "Enable support for Virtualization Host Extensions (VHE)"
1427 Virtualization Host Extensions (VHE) allow the kernel to run
1428 directly at EL2 (instead of EL1) on processors that support
1429 it. This leads to better performance for KVM, as they reduce
1430 the cost of the world switch.
1432 Selecting this option allows the VHE feature to be detected
1433 at runtime, and does not affect processors that do not
1434 implement this feature.

1444 User Access Override (UAO; part of the ARMv8.2 Extensions)
1445 causes the 'unprivileged' variant of the load/store instructions to
1446 be overridden to be privileged.
1448 This option changes get_user() and friends to use the 'unprivileged'
1449 variant of the load/store instructions. This ensures that user-space
1450 really did have access to the supplied memory. When addr_limit is
1451 set to kernel memory the UAO bit will be set, allowing privileged
1452 access to kernel memory.
1454 Choosing this option will cause copy_to_user() et al to use user-space

1474 bool "Enable support for RAS CPU Extensions"
1477 CPUs that support the Reliability, Availability and Serviceability
1478 (RAS) Extensions, part of ARMv8.2 are able to track faults and
1479 errors, classify them and report them to software.
1481 On CPUs with these extensions system software can use additional
1482 barriers to determine if faults are pending and read the
1483 classification from a new set of registers.
1485 Selecting this feature will allow the kernel to use these barriers
1486 and access the new registers if the system supports the extension.
1487 Platform RAS features may additionally depend on firmware support.

1495 be shared between different PEs in the same inner shareable
1496 domain, so the hardware can use this fact to optimise the
1497 caching of such entries in the TLB.

1520 keys, which can be used to mitigate Return Oriented Programming (ROP)
1523 This option enables these instructions at EL0 (i.e. for userspace).
1524 Choosing this option will cause the kernel to initialise secret keys
1525 for each process at exec() time, with these keys being
1526 context-switched along with the process.
1528 If the compiler supports the -mbranch-protection or
1529 -msign-return-address flag (e.g. GCC 7 or later), then this option
1530 will also cause the kernel itself to be compiled with return address
1531 protection. In this case, and if the target hardware is known to
1532 support pointer authentication, then CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR can be
1533 disabled with minimal loss of protection.
1535 The feature is detected at runtime. If the feature is not present in
1536 hardware it will not be advertised to userspace/KVM guest nor will it

1584 Otherwise you may experience firmware panics or lockups when
1585 accessing the counter registers. Even if you are not observing these

1604 BTI is intended to provide complementary protection to other control

1606 authentication mechanism provided as part of the ARMv8.3 Extensions.
1607 For this reason, it does not make sense to enable this option without
1608 also enabling support for pointer authentication. Thus, when
1609 enabling this option you should also select ARM64_PTR_AUTH=y.
1611 Userspace binaries must also be specifically compiled to make use of

1659 bool "ARM Scalable Vector Extension support"
1661 depends on !KVM || ARM64_VHE
1663 The Scalable Vector Extension (SVE) is an extension to the AArch64
1664 execution state which complements and extends the SIMD functionality
1665 of the base architecture to support much larger vectors and to enable
1666 additional vectorisation opportunities.

1679 ("bootwrapper: SVE: Enable SVE for EL2 and below").
1681 For other firmware implementations, consult the firmware documentation
1684 If you need the kernel to boot on SVE-capable hardware with broken
1685 firmware, you may need to say N here until you get your firmware
1686 fixed. Otherwise, you may experience firmware panics or lockups when
1687 booting the kernel. If unsure and you are not observing these
1688 symptoms, you should assume that it is safe to say Y.
1690 CPUs that support SVE are architecturally required to support the
1691 Virtualization Host Extensions (VHE), so the kernel makes no
1692 provision for supporting SVE alongside KVM without VHE enabled.
1693 Thus, you will need to enable CONFIG_ARM64_VHE if you want to support

1746 which retains all relocation metadata required to relocate the
1747 kernel binary at runtime to a different virtual address than the
1748 address it was linked at.
1749 Since AArch64 uses the RELA relocation format, this requires a

1762 It is the bootloader's job to provide entropy, by passing a
1763 random u64 value in /chosen/kaslr-seed at kernel entry.
1765 When booting via the UEFI stub, it will invoke the firmware's
1766 EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL implementation (if available) to supply entropy
1767 to the kernel proper. In addition, it will randomise the physical
1768 location of the kernel Image as well.

1778 covering the core kernel. This way, it is less likely for modules
1779 to leak information about the location of core kernel data structures
1780 but it does imply that function calls between modules and the core
1781 kernel will need to be resolved via veneers in the module PLT.
1783 When this option is not set, the module region will be randomized over
