- KernelGlobalsFrame caused the definition of seL4_GlobalsFrame which
was a reservation at the top of the user address space on ARMv6
platforms.
- KernelDangerousCodeInjectionOnUndefInstr was used to implement calling
user code in kernel mode won ARMv6.

Today the file autoconf.h is created by the CMake build system and thus
HAVE_AUTOCONF is always defined. Time to get rid of some legacy by
removing the check if HAVE_AUTOCONF is set.

A slot in the top level VSpace page table is used to hold the number of
SMMUv2 ContextBanks that are assigned to a VSpace. This means a
reduction of available virtual addresses at userlevel as the slot cannot
be used for holding regular mappings.

With clang 11 these become bss symbols rather than commons, resulting in

- seL4_BenchmarkDumpAllThreadsUtilisation: Prints a JSON formatted
record of total and per-thread utilisation statistics about the system.
This currently includes a thread's total cycles scheduled, total number
of times scheduled, total cycles spent in the kernel and total number of
times entering the kernel and then totals of each for all threads on the
current core.
- seL4_BenchmarkResetAllThreadsUtilisation: Resets the current counts of
every user thread on the current core.
These syscalls are only available in a Debug build configuration as they
use a kernel debug list of all of the threads that exist for a given
node.

This register is visible to software executing at PL0 but not writeable.
Storing it in the VCPU context required custom save/restore handling as
it had to be explicitly handled when switching from a VCPU thread to a
non-VCPU thread so that it didn't become a channel. It is possible to
now update this register via seL4_TCB_WriteRegisters for software
executing at PL0.
This also fixes a bug where if a vcpu-thread is switched for a
non-vcpu-thread and then switched to a different vcpu-thread the
original vcpu-thread's copy of this register will get set to 0.

This field is unused and is never set to anything by the kernel. Other
architecture definitions of seL4_UserException_Msg contain an equivalent
field for a current-program-status-register-like register that the fault
handler can read and modify as part of fault handling. RISC-V's
equivalent register SSTATUS doesn't contain any fields that would be
useful for a fault handler to modify at this stage and so the register
isn't transferred in the fault.

This register is accessible from EL1 and affects whether Generic Timer
registers are accessible from EL0. When switching out of guests, the
kernel needs to restore the correct access for native threads.

Another config bool has been introduced to toggle

This is the second commit for replacing ifndef with pargma
once in kernel header files. A few header files are missed
in the first round, hence this commit.
All the kernel header files now use pargma once rather than the ifndef,
as the pre-processed C files do not change while header files
are protected with pargma once. This will also solve any naming issues
caused by ifndef.
This commit also converts our own copyright headers to directly use
SPDX, but leaves all other copyright header intact, only adding the
SPDX ident. As far as possible this commit also merges multiple
Data61 copyright statements/headers into one for consistency.
Added constant definitions for the VMPIDR (arm32) and VMPIDR_EL2
(arm64) registers. These being vcpu registers that can be
written, read, saved and restored. The 'Virtualization Multiprocessor
ID Register' (VMPIDR) is needed to program a vcpu's affinity during
initialisation. This is currently only exposed on SMP configurations.

The PGD constants refer to the top level mapping object used by the
kernel for its own private mappings. Userlevel cannot create any PGD
objects and so these constants don't belong in libsel4.
Added support for reading and writing additional virtual timer
registers for vcpu hw read and write accesses. These include the
compare value register (CNTV_CVAL) and offset register (CNTV_OFF),
each represented as two 32 bit (high and low) registers on aarch32 and
as single 64 bit registers on aarch64.
Added support for explicitly saving and restoring the virtual
timer registers when the vcpu is enabled and disabled. This
ensures when the vcpu is switched in and out, the virtual timer
registers are restored to a state that is consistent to when
it was last run.
By default the CNTVOFF register will be updated by the kernel to
accumulate the time the VCPU is not running. From the guest this will
result in the VCNT register not increasing when the VCPU is suspended.
This behavior can be turned off by disabling the
KernelArmVtimerUpdateVOffset config option.
This commit introduces a new fault type, seL4_Fault_VPPIEvent.
This change means the kernel can reserve PPI interrupts and virtualise
them via delivering the irq to the active vcpu through a
specific fault. This enables multiplexing PPI IRQs across multiple VCPUS
which requires correctly masking and unmasking the IRQ depending on
which VCPU is running.
A new VCPU invocation, seL4_ARM_VCPU_AckVPPI is also added for
acknowledging the handling of the IRQ. This takes an IRQ as a parameter
but will only accept IRQ numbers that are sent as VPPIEvent faults.

This allows users to define custom amounts of refills without
increasing the scheduling context size system wide.
also add libsel4 functions for refill size
This commit allows scheduling contexts to be bound
to notification objects. When a passive server
receives a notification it will receive the scheduling
context from the notification. When the server
blocks the scheduling context is returned.
This is the first part of the seL4 MCS. This commit:
* adds a scheduling context object. Threads without scheduling
context objects cannot be scheduled.
* replaces tcbTimeSlice with the scheduling context object
* adds seL4_SchedControl caps for each core
* adds seL4_SchedControl_Configure which allows users to configure
amount of ticks a scheduling context has, and set a core for the
scheduling context.
* adds seL4_SchedContext_Bind, Unbind and UnbindObject, which allows
a tcb to be bound to a scheduling context.
This commit adds support for using a 40-bit physical addresses in
aarch64-hyp mode.
40-bit PA support is implemented by using a 3-stage translation, with a
13 bit page upper directory as the vspace root. PageGlobalDirectories
are not used in this configuration.
To use 40-bit PAs, platforms should set KernelArmPASizeBits40 to ON.

Depending on the physical address range the top level translation table
may be a page upper directory or a page global directory. Rename in
libsel4 the invocations on top level structures to be on an
seL4_ARM_VSpace rather than an seL4_ARM_PageGlobalDirectory.
On aarch64-hyp the virtual address translation structure can differ
depending on the physical address range. This commit prepares to support
more than a single physical address range by removing the assumption
that the top-level structure in a vspace is a PGD, replacing it with the
concept of a vspace_root.
Specifically:
- add and use macros to refer to vtable bitfield generator functions
- use the existing vspace_root_t type rather than pgde_t
- pull performASIDPoolInvocation into header
- add and use VSPACE_PTR rather than PGDE_PTR
- rename decodeARMVPageGlobalDirectoryInvocation to refer to VSpace
- update comments/error messages
- rename variables
Some platforms and configurations do not allow user code to change the
value of the register used for TLS. On these architectures a syscall can
be used to allow the kernel to update the register on their behalf.
This does not immediately update the value in the user context on many
configurations as the values are only stored in the user context on a
context switch.
