Hi all,

This is v4 of the series adding support for nVHE hypervisor stacktraces;
and is based on arm64 for-next/stacktrace.

Thanks all for your feedback on previous revisions. Mark Brown, I
appreciate your Reviewed-by on the v3, I have dropped the tags in this
new verision since I think the series has changed quite a bit.

The previous versions were posted at:
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220607165105.639716-1-kaleshsingh@google.com/
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220502191222.4192768-1-kaleshsingh@google.com/
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220427184716.1949239-1-kaleshsingh@google.com/

The main updates in this version are to address concerens from Marc on the
memory usage and reusing the common code by refactoring into a shared header.

Thanks,
Kalesh

============

KVM nVHE Stack unwinding.
===

nVHE has two modes of operation: protected (pKVM) and unprotected
(conventional nVHE). Depending on the mode, a slightly different approach
is used to dump the hyperviosr stacktrace but the core unwinding logic
remains the same.

Protected nVHE (pKVM) stacktraces
====

In protected nVHE mode, the host cannot directly access hypervisor memory.

The hypervisor stack unwinding happens in EL2 and is made accessible to
the host via a shared buffer. Symbolizing and printing the stacktrace
addresses is delegated to the host and happens in EL1.

Non-protected (Conventional) nVHE stacktraces
====

In non-protected mode, the host is able to directly access the hypervisor
stack pages.

The hypervisor stack unwinding and dumping of the stacktrace is performed
by the host in EL1, as this avoids the memory overhead of setting up
shared buffers between the host and hypervisor.

Resuing the Core Unwinding Logic
====

Since the hypervisor cannot link against the kernel code in proteced mode.
The common stack unwinding code is moved to a shared header to allow reuse
in the nVHE hypervisor.

Reducing the memory footprint
====

In this version the below steps were taken to reduce the memory usage of
nVHE stack unwinding:

    1) The nVHE overflow stack is reduced from PAGE_SIZE to 4KB; benificial
       for configurations with non 4KB pages (16KB or 64KB pages).
    2) In protected nVHE mode (pKVM), the shared stacktrace buffers with the
       host are reduced from PAGE_SIZE to the minimum size required.
    3) In systems other than Android, conventional nVHE makes up the vast
       majority of use case. So the pKVM stack tracing is disabled by default
       (!CONFIG_PROTECTED_NVHE_STACKTRACE), which avoid the memory usage for
       setting up shared buffers.
    4) In non-protected nVHE mode (conventional nVHE), the stack unwinding
       is done directly in EL1 by the host and no shared buffers with the
       hyperviosr are needed.

Sample Output
====

The below shows an example output from a simple stack overflow test:
