After multiple attempts, this patchset is now based on the fact that the

The first patch allows to build relocatable kernels but is not selected

The second and third patches take advantage of an already existing powerpc

This patchset intends to improve tlb utilization by using hugepages for
the linear mapping.
As reported by Anup in v6, when STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is enabled, we must
take care of isolating the kernel text and rodata so that they are not
mapped with a PUD mapping which would then assign wrong permissions to
the whole region: it is achieved the same way as arm64 by using the
memblock nomap API which isolates those regions and re-merge them afterwards
thus avoiding any issue with the system resources tree creation.

During the early page table creation, we used to set the mapping for
PAGE_OFFSET to the kernel load address: but the kernel load address is
always offseted by PMD_SIZE which makes it impossible to use PUD/P4D/PGD
pages as this physical address is not aligned on PUD/P4D/PGD size (whereas
PAGE_OFFSET is).
But actually we don't have to establish this mapping (ie set va_pa_offset)
that early in the boot process because:
- first, setup_vm installs a temporary kernel mapping and among other
things, discovers the system memory,
- then, setup_vm_final creates the final kernel mapping and takes
advantage of the discovered system memory to create the linear
mapping.
During the first phase, we don't know the start of the system memory and
then until the second phase is finished, we can't use the linear mapping at
all and phys_to_virt/virt_to_phys translations must not be used because it
would result in a different translation from the 'real' one once the final
mapping is installed.
So here we simply delay the initialization of va_pa_offset to after the
system memory discovery. But to make sure noone uses the linear mapping
before, we add some guard in the DEBUG_VIRTUAL config.
Finally we can use PUD/P4D/PGD hugepages when possible, which will result
in a better TLB utilization.
Note that:
- this does not apply to rv32 as the kernel mapping lies in the linear
mapping.
- we rely on the firmware to protect itself using PMP.

Use directly phys_ram_base instead, riscv_pfn_base is just the pfn of
the address contained in phys_ram_base.
Even if there is no functional change intended in this patch, actually
setting phys_ram_base that early changes the behaviour of
kernel_mapping_pa_to_va during the early boot: phys_ram_base used to be
zero before this patch and now it is set to the physical start address of
the kernel. But it does not break the conversion of a kernel physical
address into a virtual address since kernel_mapping_pa_to_va should only
be used on kernel physical addresses, i.e. addresses greater than the
physical start address of the kernel.

Evan Green <evan@rivosinc.com> says:
There's been a bunch of off-list discussions about this, including at
Plumbers. The original plan was to do something involving providing an
ISA string to userspace, but ISA strings just aren't sufficient for a
stable ABI any more: in order to parse an ISA string users need the
version of the specifications that the string is written to, the version
of each extension (sometimes at a finer granularity than the RISC-V
releases/versions encode), and the expected use case for the ISA string
(ie, is it a U-mode or M-mode string). That's a lot of complexity to
try and keep ABI compatible and it's probably going to continue to grow,
as even if there's no more complexity in the specifications we'll have
to deal with the various ISA string parsing oddities that end up all
over userspace.
Instead this patch set takes a very different approach and provides a set
of key/value pairs that encode various bits about the system. The big
advantage here is that we can clearly define what these mean so we can
ensure ABI stability, but it also allows us to encode information that's
unlikely to ever appear in an ISA string (see the misaligned access
performance, for example). The resulting interface looks a lot like
what arm64 and x86 do, and will hopefully fit well into something like
ACPI in the future.
The actual user interface is a syscall, with a vDSO function in front of
it. The vDSO function can answer some queries without a syscall at all,
and falls back to the syscall for cases it doesn't have answers to.
Currently we prepopulate it with an array of answers for all keys and
a CPU set of "all CPUs". This can be adjusted as necessary to provide
fast answers to the most common queries.
An example series in glibc exposing this syscall and using it in an
ifunc selector for memcpy can be found at [1].
I was asked about the performance delta between this and something like
sysfs. I created a small test program and ran it on a Nezha D1
Allwinner board. Doing each operation 100000 times and dividing, these
operations take the following amount of time:
- open()+read()+close() of /sys/kernel/cpu_byteorder: 3.8us
- access("/sys/kernel/cpu_byteorder", R_OK): 1.3us
- riscv_hwprobe() vDSO and syscall: .0094us
- riscv_hwprobe() vDSO with no syscall: 0.0091us
These numbers get farther apart if we query multiple keys, as sysfs will
scale linearly with the number of keys, where the dedicated syscall
stays the same. To frame these numbers, I also did a tight
fork/exec/wait loop, which I measured as 4.8ms. So doing 4
open/read/close operations is a delta of about 0.3%, versus a single vDSO
call is a delta of essentially zero.

Add a vDSO function __vdso_riscv_hwprobe, which can sit in front of the
riscv_hwprobe syscall and answer common queries. We stash a copy of
static answers for the "all CPUs" case in the vDSO data page. This data
is private to the vDSO, so we can decide later to change what's stored
there or under what conditions we defer to the syscall. Currently all
data can be discovered at boot, so the vDSO function answers all queries
when the cpumask is set to the "all CPUs" hint.
There's also a boolean in the data that lets the vDSO function know that
all CPUs are the same. In that case, the vDSO will also answer queries
for arbitrary CPU masks in addition to the "all CPUs" hint.

This allows userspace to select various routines to use based on the
performance of misaligned access on the target hardware.
Rather than adding DT bindings, this change taps into the alternatives
mechanism used to probe CPU errata. Add a new function pointer alongside
the vendor-specific errata_patch_func() that probes for desirable errata
(otherwise known as "features"). Unlike the errata_patch_func(), this
function is called on each CPU as it comes up, so it can save
feature information per-CPU.
The T-head C906 has fast unaligned access, both as defined by GCC [1],
and in performing a basic benchmark, which determined that byte copies
are >50% slower than a misaligned word copy of the same data size (source
for this test at [2]):
bytecopy size f000 count 50000 offset 0 took 31664899 us
wordcopy size f000 count 50000 offset 0 took 5180919 us

riscv establishes 2 virtual mappings:
- early_pg_dir maps the kernel which allows to discover the system
memory
- swapper_pg_dir installs the final mapping (linear mapping included)
We used to map the dtb in early_pg_dir using DTB_EARLY_BASE_VA, and this
mapping was not carried over in swapper_pg_dir. It happens that
early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem() must be called before swapper_pg_dir is
setup otherwise we could allocate reserved memory defined in the dtb.
And this function initializes reserved_mem variable with addresses that
lie in the early_pg_dir dtb mapping: when those addresses are reused
with swapper_pg_dir, this mapping does not exist and then we trap.
The previous "fix" was incorrect as early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem()
must be called before swapper_pg_dir is set up otherwise we could
allocate in reserved memory defined in the dtb.
So move the dtb mapping in the fixmap region which is established in
early_pg_dir and handed over to swapper_pg_dir.

To do remote FENCEs (i.e. remote TLB flushes) using IPI calls on the
RISC-V kernel, we need hardware mechanism to directly inject IPI from

The upcoming AIA IMSIC devices allow direct IPI injection from the
supervisor mode (i.e. RISC-V kernel). To support this, we extend the
riscv_ipi_set_virq_range() function so that IPI provider (i.e. irqchip

Currently, the RISC-V kernel provides arch specific hooks (i.e.
struct riscv_ipi_ops) to register IPI handling methods. The stats
gathering of IPIs is also arch specific in the RISC-V kernel.
Other architectures (such as ARM, ARM64, and MIPS) have moved away
from custom arch specific IPI handling methods. Currently, these
architectures have Linux irqchip drivers providing a range of Linux
IRQ numbers to be used as IPIs and IPI triggering is done using
generic IPI APIs. This approach allows architectures to treat IPIs
as normal Linux IRQs and IPI stats gathering is done by the generic
Linux IRQ subsystem.
We extend the RISC-V IPI handling as-per above approach so that arch
specific IPI handling methods (struct riscv_ipi_ops) can be removed
and the IPI handling is done through the Linux IRQ subsystem.

We add riscv_get_intc_hwnode() in arch/riscv which allows RISC-V

helps these drivers to map per-CPU (local) interrupts provided

As a result, it will malfunction on XIP kernels, as they do not support
the alternatives mechanism.
When alternatives support is not present, fall back to using
__riscv_isa_extension_available() in riscv_has_extension_[un]likely()
instead stead, which handily takes the same argument, so that kernels
that do not support alternatives can accurately report the presence of
FPU support.

codes more elegant. Here are the changes:
- More clear entry.S with handle_exception and ret_from_exception
- Get rid of complex custom signal implementation
- Move syscall procedure from assembly to C, which is much more
readable.
- Connect ret_from_fork & ret_from_kernel_thread to generic entry.
- Wrap with irqentry_enter/exit and syscall_enter/exit_from_user_mode
- Use the standard preemption code instead of custom

When the Zicboz extension is available we can more rapidly zero naturally
aligned Zicboz block sized chunks of memory. As pages are always page
aligned and are larger than any Zicboz block size will be, then
clear_page() appears to be a good candidate for the extension. While cycle
count and energy consumption should also be considered, we can be pretty
certain that implementing clear_page() with the Zicboz extension is a win
by comparing the new dynamic instruction count with its current count[1].
Doing so we see that the new count is just over a quarter of the old count
(see patch6's commit message for more details).
For those of you who reviewed v1[2], you may be looking for the memset()
patches. As pointed out in v1, and a couple follow-up emails, it's not
clear that patching memset() is a win yet. When I get a chance to test
on real hardware with a comprehensive benchmark collection then I can
post the memset() patches separately (assuming the benchmarks show it's
worthwhile).

Using memset() to zero a 4K page takes 563 total instructions, where
20 are branches. clear_page(), with Zicboz and a 64 byte block size,
takes 169 total instructions, where 4 are branches and 33 are nops.
Even though the block size is a variable, thanks to alternatives, we
can still implement a Duff device without having to do any preliminary
calculations. This is achieved by using the alternatives' cpufeature
value (the upper 16 bits of patch_id). The value used is the maximum
zicboz block size order accepted at the patch site. This enables us
to stop patching / unrolling when 4K bytes have been zeroed (we would
loop and continue after 4K if the page size would be larger)
For 4K pages, unrolling 16 times allows block sizes of 64 and 128 to
only loop a few times and larger block sizes to not loop at all. Since
cbo.zero doesn't take an offset, we also need an 'add' after each
instruction, making the loop body 112 to 160 bytes. Hopefully this
is small enough to not cause icache misses.

cpufeature IDs are consecutive integers starting at 26, so a 32-bit
patch ID allows an aircraft carrier load of feature IDs. Repurposing
the upper 16 bits still leaves a boat load of feature IDs and gains
16 bits which may be used to control patching on a per patch-site
basis.
This will be initially used in Zicboz's application to clear_page(),
as Zicboz's block size must also be considered. In that case, the
upper 16-bit value's role will be to convey the maximum block size
which the Zicboz clear_page() implementation supports.
cpufeature patch sites which need to check for the existence or
absence of other cpufeatures may also be able to make use of this.

Sergey Matyukevich <geomatsi@gmail.com> says:
Some time ago two different patches have been posted to fix stale TLB
entries that caused applications crashes.
The patch [0] suggested 'aggregating' mm_cpumask, i.e. current cpu is not
cleared for the switched-out task in switch_mm function. For additional
explanations see the commit message by Guo Ren. The same approach is
used by arc architecture, so another good comment is for switch_mm
in arch/arc/include/asm/mmu_context.h.
The patch [1] attempted to reduce the number of TLB flushes by deferring
(and possibly avoiding) them for CPUs not running the task.
Patch [1] has been merged. However we already have two bug reports from
different vendors. So apparently something is missing in the approach
suggested in [1]. In both cases the patch [0] fixed the issue.
This patch series reverts [1] and replaces it by [0].

We're currently using stop_machine() to update ftrace & kprobes, which
means that the thread that takes text_mutex during may not be the same
as the thread that eventually patches the code. This isn't actually a
race because the lock is still held (preventing any other concurrent
accesses) and there is only one thread running during stop_machine(),
but it does trigger a lockdep failure.
This patch just elides the lockdep check during stop_machine.

Svnapot can be used to support 64KB hugetlb page, so it can become a new
option when using hugetlbfs. Add a basic implementation of hugetlb page,
and support 64KB as a size in it by using Svnapot.
For test, boot kernel with command line contains "default_hugepagesz=64K
hugepagesz=64K hugepages=20" and run a simple test like this:
tools/testing/selftests/vm/map_hugetlb 1 16

Add one alternative to enable/disable svnapot support, enable this static
key when "svnapot" is in the "riscv,isa" field of fdt and SVNAPOT compile
option is set. It will influence the behavior of has_svnapot. All code
dependent on svnapot should make sure that has_svnapot return true firstly.
Modify PTE definition for Svnapot, and creates some functions in pgtable.h
to mark a PTE as napot and check if it is a Svnapot PTE. Until now, only
64KB napot size is supported in spec, so some macros has only 64KB version.

"ARM:
- Provide a virtual cache topology to the guest to avoid
inconsistencies with migration on heterogenous systems. Non secure
software has no practical need to traverse the caches by set/way in
the first place
- Add support for taking stage-2 access faults in parallel. This was
an accidental omission in the original parallel faults
implementation, but should provide a marginal improvement to
machines w/o FEAT_HAFDBS (such as hardware from the fruit company)
- A preamble to adding support for nested virtualization to KVM,
including vEL2 register state, rudimentary nested exception
handling and masking unsupported features for nested guests
- Fixes to the PSCI relay that avoid an unexpected host SVE trap when
resuming a CPU when running pKVM
- VGIC maintenance interrupt support for the AIC
- Improvements to the arch timer emulation, primarily aimed at
reducing the trap overhead of running nested
- Add CONFIG_USERFAULTFD to the KVM selftests config fragment in the
interest of CI systems
- Avoid VM-wide stop-the-world operations when a vCPU accesses its
own redistributor
- Serialize when toggling CPACR_EL1.SMEN to avoid unexpected
exceptions in the host
- Aesthetic and comment/kerneldoc fixes
- Drop the vestiges of the old Columbia mailing list and add [Oliver]

- Fix wrong usage of PGDIR_SIZE instead of PUD_SIZE
- Correctly place the guest in S-mode after redirecting a trap to the
guest
- Redirect illegal instruction traps to guest
- SBI PMU support for guest
s390:
- Sort out confusion between virtual and physical addresses, which
currently are the same on s390
- A new ioctl that performs cmpxchg on guest memory
- A few fixes
x86:
- Change tdp_mmu to a read-only parameter
- Separate TDP and shadow MMU page fault paths
- Enable Hyper-V invariant TSC control
- Fix a variety of APICv and AVIC bugs, some of them real-world, some
of them affecting architecurally legal but unlikely to happen in
practice
- Mark APIC timer as expired if its in one-shot mode and the count
underflows while the vCPU task was being migrated
- Advertise support for Intel's new fast REP string features
- Fix a double-shootdown issue in the emergency reboot code
- Ensure GIF=1 and disable SVM during an emergency reboot, i.e. give
SVM similar treatment to VMX
- Update Xen's TSC info CPUID sub-leaves as appropriate
- Add support for Hyper-V's extended hypercalls, where "support" at
this point is just forwarding the hypercalls to userspace
- Clean up the kvm->lock vs. kvm->srcu sequences when updating the
PMU and MSR filters
- One-off fixes and cleanups
- Fix and cleanup the range-based TLB flushing code, used when KVM is
running on Hyper-V
- Add support for filtering PMU events using a mask. If userspace
wants to restrict heavily what events the guest can use, it can now
do so without needing an absurd number of filter entries
- Clean up KVM's handling of "PMU MSRs to save", especially when vPMU
support is disabled
- Add PEBS support for Intel Sapphire Rapids
- Fix a mostly benign overflow bug in SEV's
send|receive_update_data()
- Move several SVM-specific flags into vcpu_svm
x86 Intel:
- Handle NMI VM-Exits before leaving the noinstr region
- A few trivial cleanups in the VM-Enter flows
- Stop enabling VMFUNC for L1 purely to document that KVM doesn't
support EPTP switching (or any other VM function) for L1
- Fix a crash when using eVMCS's enlighted MSR bitmaps
Generic:
- Clean up the hardware enable and initialization flow, which was
scattered around multiple arch-specific hooks. Instead, just let
the arch code call into generic code. Both x86 and ARM should
benefit from not having to fight common KVM code's notion of how to
do initialization
- Account allocations in generic kvm_arch_alloc_vm()
- Fix a memory leak if coalesced MMIO unregistration fails
selftests:
- On x86, cache the CPU vendor (AMD vs. Intel) and use the info to
emit the correct hypercall instruction instead of relying on KVM to
patch in VMMCALL
