Merge patch series "RISC-V: hwprobe: Misaligned scalar perf fix and rename"

2024-08-15T20:12:21Z

Evan Green says: The CPUPERF0 hwprobe key was documented and identified in code as a bitmask value, but its contents were an enum. This produced incorrect behavior in conjunction with the WHICH_CPUS hwprobe flag. The first patch in this series fixes the bitmask/enum problem by creating a new hwprobe key that returns the same data, but is properly described as a value instead of a bitmask. The second patch renames the value definitions in preparation for adding vector misaligned access info. As of this version, the old defines are kept in place to maintain source compatibility with older userspace programs. * b4-shazam-merge: RISC-V: hwprobe: Add SCALAR to misaligned perf defines RISC-V: hwprobe: Add MISALIGNED_PERF key Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240809214444.3257596-1-evan@rivosinc.com Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt

RISC-V: hwprobe: Add SCALAR to misaligned perf defines

2024-08-14T20:13:24Z

In preparation for misaligned vector performance hwprobe keys, rename the hwprobe key values associated with misaligned scalar accesses to include the term SCALAR. Leave the old defines in place to maintain source compatibility. This change is intended to be a functional no-op.

RISC-V: hwprobe: Add MISALIGNED_PERF key

2024-08-14T20:13:23Z

RISCV_HWPROBE_KEY_CPUPERF_0 was mistakenly flagged as a bitmask in hwprobe_key_is_bitmask(), when in reality it was an enum value. This causes problems when used in conjunction with RISCV_HWPROBE_WHICH_CPUS, since SLOW, FAST, and EMULATED have values whose bits overlap with each other. If the caller asked for the set of CPUs that was SLOW or EMULATED, the returned set would also include CPUs that were FAST. Introduce a new hwprobe key, RISCV_HWPROBE_KEY_MISALIGNED_PERF, which returns the same values in response to a direct query (with no flags), but is properly handled as an enumerated value. As a result, SLOW, FAST, and EMULATED are all correctly treated as distinct values under the new key when queried with the WHICH_CPUS flag. Leave the old key in place to avoid disturbing applications which may have already come to rely on the key, with or without its broken behavior with respect to the WHICH_CPUS flag.

arm64: errata: Expand speculative SSBS workaround (again)

2024-08-01T15:11:28Z

A number of Arm Ltd CPUs suffer from errata whereby an MSR to the SSBS special-purpose register does not affect subsequent speculative instructions, permitting speculative store bypassing for a window of time. We worked around this for a number of CPUs in commits: * 7187bb7d0b5c7dfa ("arm64: errata: Add workaround for Arm errata 3194386 and 3312417") * 75b3c43eab594bfb ("arm64: errata: Expand speculative SSBS workaround") Since then, similar errata have been published for a number of other Arm Ltd CPUs, for which the same mitigation is sufficient. This is described in their respective Software Developer Errata Notice (SDEN) documents: * Cortex-A76 (MP052) SDEN v31.0, erratum 3324349 https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-885749/3100/ * Cortex-A77 (MP074) SDEN v19.0, erratum 3324348 https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1152370/1900/ * Cortex-A78 (MP102) SDEN v21.0, erratum 3324344 https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1401784/2100/ * Cortex-A78C (MP138) SDEN v16.0, erratum 3324346 https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1707916/1600/ * Cortex-A78C (MP154) SDEN v10.0, erratum 3324347 https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-2004089/1000/ * Cortex-A725 (MP190) SDEN v5.0, erratum 3456106 https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-2832921/0500/ * Cortex-X1 (MP077) SDEN v21.0, erratum 3324344 https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1401782/2100/ * Cortex-X1C (MP136) SDEN v16.0, erratum 3324346 https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1707914/1600/ * Neoverse-N1 (MP050) SDEN v32.0, erratum 3324349 https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-885747/3200/ * Neoverse-V1 (MP076) SDEN v19.0, erratum 3324341 https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1401781/1900/ Note that due to the manner in which Arm develops IP and tracks errata, some CPUs share a common erratum number and some CPUs have multiple erratum numbers for the same HW issue. On parts without SB, it is necessary to use ISB for the workaround. The spec_bar() macro used in the mitigation will expand to a "DSB SY; ISB" sequence in this case, which is sufficient on all affected parts. Enable the existing mitigation by adding the relevant MIDRs to erratum_spec_ssbs_list. The list is sorted alphanumerically (involving moving Neoverse-V3 after Neoverse-V2) so that this is easy to audit and potentially extend again in future. The Kconfig text is also updated to clarify the set of affected parts and the mitigation.

RISC-V: Provide the frequency of time CSR via hwprobe

2024-07-26T12:50:51Z

The RISC-V architecture makes a real time counter CSR (via RDTIME instruction) available for applications in U-mode but there is no architected mechanism for an application to discover the frequency the counter is running at. Some applications (e.g., DPDK) use the time counter for basic performance analysis as well as fine grained time-keeping. Add support to the hwprobe system call to export the time CSR frequency to code running in U-mode.

riscv: Extend sv39 linear mapping max size to 128G

2024-07-26T12:50:50Z

This harmonizes all virtual addressing modes which can now all map (PGDIR_SIZE * PTRS_PER_PGD) / 4 of physical memory. The RISCV implementation of KASAN requires that the boundary between shallow mappings are aligned on an 8G boundary. In this case we need VMALLOC_START to be 8G aligned. So although we only need to move the start of the linear mapping down by 4GiB to allow 128GiB to be mapped, we actually move it down by 8GiB (creating a 4GiB hole between the linear mapping and KASAN shadow space) to maintain the alignment requirement.
