As suggested by the B-ext spec, the Zbc (carry-less multiplication)
instructions can be used to accelerate CRC calculations. Currently, the
crc32 is the most widely used crc function inside kernel, so this patch
focuses on the optimization of just the crc32 APIs.
Compared with the current table-lookup based optimization, Zbc based
optimization can also achieve large stride during CRC calculation loop,
meantime, it avoids the memory access latency of the table-lookup based
implementation and it reduces memory footprint.
If Zbc feature is not supported in a runtime environment, then the
table-lookup based implementation would serve as fallback via alternative
mechanism.
By inspecting the vmlinux built by gcc v12.2.0 with default optimization
level (-O2), we can see below instruction count change for each 8-byte
stride in the CRC32 loop:
rv64: crc32_be (54->31), crc32_le (54->13), __crc32c_le (54->13)
rv32: crc32_be (50->32), crc32_le (50->16), __crc32c_le (50->16)
The compile target CPU is little endian, extra effort is needed for byte
swapping for the crc32_be API, thus, the instruction count change is not
as significant as that in the *_le cases.
This patch is tested on QEMU VM with the kernel CRC32 selftest for both
rv64 and rv32. Running the CRC32 selftest on a real hardware (SpacemiT K1)
with Zbc extension shows 65% and 125% performance improvement respectively
on crc32_test() and crc32c_test().

Memory Hot(Un)Plug support (and ZONE_DEVICE) for the RISC-V port
================================================================
Introduction
============
To quote "Documentation/admin-guide/mm/memory-hotplug.rst": "Memory
hot(un)plug allows for increasing and decreasing the size of physical
memory available to a machine at runtime."
This series adds memory hot(un)plugging, and ZONE_DEVICE support for
the RISC-V Linux port.
MM configuration
================
RISC-V MM has the following configuration:
* Memory blocks are 128M, analogous to x86-64. It uses PMD
("hugepage") vmemmaps. From that follows that 2M (PMD) worth of
vmemmap spans 32768 pages á 4K which gets us 128M.
* The pageblock size is the minimum minimum virtio_mem size, and on
RISC-V it's 2M (2^9 * 4K).
Implementation
==============
The PGD table on RISC-V is shared/copied between for all processes. To
avoid doing page table synchronization, the first patch (patch 1)
pre-allocated the PGD entries for vmemmap/direct map. By doing that
the init_mm PGD will be fixed at kernel init, and synchronization can
be avoided all together.
The following two patches (patch 2-3) does some preparations, followed
by the actual MHP implementation (patch 4-5). Then, MHP and virtio-mem
are enabled (patch 6-7), and finally ZONE_DEVICE support is added
(patch 8).
MHP and locking
===============
TL;DR: The MHP does not step on any toes, except for ptdump.
Additional locking is required for ptdump.
Long version: For v2 I spent some time digging into init_mm
synchronization/update. Here are my findings, and I'd love them to be
corrected if incorrect.
It's been a gnarly path...
The `init_mm` structure is a special mm (perhaps not a "real" one).
It's a "lazy context" that tracks kernel page table resources, e.g.,
the kernel page table (swapper_pg_dir), a kernel page_table_lock (more
about the usage below), mmap_lock, and such.
`init_mm` does not track/contain any VMAs. Having the `init_mm` is
convenient, so that the regular kernel page table walk/modify
functions can be used.
Now, `init_mm` being special means that the locking for kernel page
tables are special as well.
On RISC-V the PGD (top-level page table structure), similar to x86, is
shared (copied) with user processes. If the kernel PGD is modified, it
has to be synched to user-mode processes PGDs. This is avoided by
pre-populating the PGD, so it'll be fixed from boot.
The in-kernel pgd regions are documented in
`Documentation/arch/riscv/vm-layout.rst`.
The distinct regions are:
* vmemmap
* vmalloc/ioremap space
* direct mapping of all physical memory
* kasan
* modules, BPF
* kernel
Memory hotplug is the process of adding/removing memory to/from the
kernel.
Adding is done in two phases:
1. Add the memory to the kernel
2. Online memory, making it available to the page allocator.
Step 1 is partially architecture dependent, and updates the init_mm
page table:
* Update the direct map page tables. The direct map is a linear map,
representing all physical memory: `virt = phys + PAGE_OFFSET`
* Add a `struct page` for each added page of memory. Update the
vmemmap (virtual mapping to the `struct page`, so we can easily
transform a kernel virtual address to a `struct page *` address.
From an MHP perspective, there are two regions of the PGD that are
updated:
* vmemmap
* direct mapping of all physical memory
The `struct mm_struct` has a couple of locks in play:
* `spinlock_t page_table_lock` protects the page table, and some
counters
* `struct rw_semaphore mmap_lock` protect an mm's VMAs
Note again that `init_mm` does not contain any VMAs, but still uses
the mmap_lock in some places.
The `page_table_lock` was originally used to to protect all pages
tables, but more recently a split page table lock has been introduced.
The split lock has a per-table lock for the PTE and PMD tables. If
split lock is disabled, all tables are guarded by
`mm->page_table_lock` (for user processes). Split page table locks are
not used for init_mm.
MHP operations is typically synchronized using
`DEFINE_STATIC_PERCPU_RWSEM(mem_hotplug_lock)`.
Actors
------
The following non-MHP actors in the kernel traverses (read), and/or
modifies the kernel PGD.
* `ptdump`
Walks the entire `init_mm`, via `ptdump_walk_pgd()` with the
`mmap_write_lock(init_mm)` taken.
Observation: ptdump can race with MHP, and needs additional locking
to avoid crashes/races.
* `set_direct_*` / `arch/riscv/mm/pageattr.c`
The `set_direct_*` functionality is used to "synchronize" the
direct map to other kernel mappings, e.g. modules/kernel text. The
direct map is using "as large huge table mappings as possible",
which means that the `set_direct_*` might need to split the direct
map.
The `set_direct_*` functions operates with the
`mmap_write_lock(init_mm)` taken.
Observation: `set_direct_*` uses the direct map, but will never
modify the same entry as MHP. If there is a mapping, that entry will
never race with MHP. Further, MHP acts when memory is offline.
* HVO / `mm/hugetlb_vmemmap`
HVO optimizes the backing `struct page` for hugetlb pages, which
means changing the "vmemmap" region. HVO can split (merge?) a
vmemmap pmd. However, it will never race with MHP, since HVO only
operates at online memory. HVO cannot touch memory being MHP added
or removed.
* `apply_to_page_range`
Walks a range, creates pages and applies a callback (setting
permissions) for the page.
When creating a table, it might use `int __pte_alloc_kernel(pmd_t
*pmd)` which takes the `init_mm.page_table_lock` to synchronize pmd
populate.
Used by: `mm/vmalloc.c` and `mm/kasan/shadow.c`. The KASAN callback
takes the `init_mm.page_table_lock` to synchronize pte creation.
Observations: `apply_to_page_range` applies to the "vmalloc/ioremap
space" region, and "kasan" region. *Not* affected by MHP.
* `apply_to_existing_page_range`
Walks a range, applies a callback (setting permissions) for the
page (no page creation).
Used by: `kernel/bpf/arena.c` and `mm/kasan/shadow.c`. The KASAN
callback takes the `init_mm.page_table_lock` to synchronize pte
creation. *Not* affected by MHP regions.
* `apply_to_existing_page_range` applies to the "vmalloc/ioremap
space" region, and "kasan" region. *Not* affected by MHP regions.
* `ioremap_page_range` and `vmap_page_range`
Uses the same internal function, and might create table entries at
the "vmalloc/ioremap space" region. Can call
`__pte_alloc_kernel()` which takes the `init_mm.page_table_lock`
synchronizing pmd populate in the region. *Not* affected by MHP
regions.
Summary:
* MHP add will never modify the same page table entries, as any of
the other actors.
* MHP remove is done when memory is offlined, and will not clash
with any of the actors.
* Functions that walk the entire kernel page table need
synchronization
* It's sufficient to add the MHP lock ptdump.
Testing
=======
This series adds basic DT supported hotplugging. There is a QEMU
series enabling MHP for the RISC-V "virt" machine here: [1]
ACPI/MSI support is still in the making for RISC-V, and prior proper
(ACPI) PCI MSI support lands [2] and NUMA SRAT support [3], it hard to
try it out.
I've prepared a QEMU branch with proper ACPI GED/PC-DIMM support [4],
and a this series with the required prerequisites [5] (AIA, ACPI AIA
MADT, ACPI NUMA SRAT).
To test with virtio-mem, e.g.:
| qemu-system-riscv64 \
| -machine virt,aia=aplic-imsic \
| -cpu rv64,v=true,vlen=256,elen=64,h=true,zbkb=on,zbkc=on,zbkx=on,zkr=on,zkt=on,svinval=on,svnapot=on,svpbmt=on \
| -nodefaults \
| -nographic -smp 8 -kernel rv64-u-boot.bin \
| -drive file=rootfs.img,format=raw,if=virtio \
| -device virtio-rng-pci \
| -m 16G,slots=3,maxmem=32G \
| -object memory-backend-ram,id=mem0,size=16G \
| -numa node,nodeid=0,memdev=mem0 \
| -serial chardev:char0 \
| -mon chardev=char0,mode=readline \
| -chardev stdio,mux=on,id=char0 \
| -device pci-serial,id=serial0,chardev=char0 \
| -object memory-backend-ram,id=vmem0,size=2G \
| -device virtio-mem-pci,id=vm0,memdev=vmem0,node=0
where "rv64-u-boot.bin" is U-boot with EFI/ACPI-support (use [6] if
you're lazy).
In the QEMU monitor:
| (qemu) info memory-devices
| (qemu) qom-set vm0 requested-size 1G
...to test DAX/KMEM, use the follow QEMU parameters:
| -object memory-backend-file,id=mem1,share=on,mem-path=virtio_pmem.img,size=4G \
| -device virtio-pmem-pci,memdev=mem1,id=nv1
and the regular ndctl/daxctl dance.
If you're brave to try the ACPI branch, add "acpi=on" to "-machine
virt", and test PC-DIMM MHP (in addition to virtio-{p},mem):
In the QEMU monitor:
| (qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=1G
| (qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=mem1
You can also try hot-remove with some QEMU options, say:
| -object memory-backend-file,id=mem-1,size=256M,mem-path=/pagesize-2MB
| -device pc-dimm,id=mem1,memdev=mem-1
| -object memory-backend-file,id=mem-2,size=1G,mem-path=/pagesize-1GB
| -device pc-dimm,id=mem2,memdev=mem-2
| -object memory-backend-file,id=mem-3,size=256M,mem-path=/pagesize-2MB
| -device pc-dimm,id=mem3,memdev=mem-3
Remove "acpi=on" to run with DT.
Thanks to Alex, Andrew, David, and Oscar for all
comments/tests/fixups.

During memory hot remove, the ptdump functionality can end up touching
stale data. Avoid any potential crashes (or worse), by holding the
memory hotplug read-lock while traversing the page table.
This change is analogous to arm64's commit bf2b59f60e ("arm64/mm:
Hold memory hotplug lock while walking for kernel page table dump").

For an architecture to support memory hotplugging, a couple of
callbacks needs to be implemented:
arch_add_memory()
This callback is responsible for adding the physical memory into the
direct map, and call into the memory hotplugging generic code via
__add_pages() that adds the corresponding struct page entries, and
updates the vmemmap mapping.
arch_remove_memory()
This is the inverse of the callback above.
vmemmap_free()
This function tears down the vmemmap mappings (if
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is enabled), and also deallocates the
backing vmemmap pages. Note that for persistent memory, an
alternative allocator for the backing pages can be used; The
vmem_altmap. This means that when the backing pages are cleared,
extra care is needed so that the correct deallocation method is
used.
arch_get_mappable_range()
This functions returns the PA range that the direct map can map.
Used by the MHP internals for sanity checks.
The page table unmap/teardown functions are heavily based on code from
the x86 tree. The same remove_pgd_mapping() function is used in both
vmemmap_free() and arch_remove_memory(), but in the latter function
the backing pages are not removed.

Prepare for memory hotplugging support by changing from __init to
__meminit for the page table functions that are used by the upcoming
architecture specific callbacks.
Changing the __init attribute to __meminit, avoids that the functions
are removed after init. The __meminit attribute makes sure the
functions are kept in the kernel text post init, but only if memory
hotplugging is enabled for the build.

The RISC-V port copies the PGD table from init_mm/swapper_pg_dir to
all userland page tables, which means that if the PGD level table is
changed, other page tables has to be updated as well.
Instead of having the PGD changes ripple out to all tables, the
synchronization can be avoided by pre-allocating the PGD entries/pages
at boot, avoiding the synchronization all together.
This is currently done for the bpf/modules, and vmalloc PGD regions.
Extend this scheme for the PGD regions touched by memory hotplugging.
Prepare the RISC-V port for memory hotplug by pre-allocate
vmemmap/direct map/kasan entries at the PGD level. This will roughly
waste ~128 (plus 32 if KASAN is enabled) worth of 4K pages when memory
hotplugging is enabled in the kernel configuration.

Since a few extensions (Zicbom/Zicboz) already needs validation and
future ones will need it as well (Zc*) add a validate() callback to
struct riscv_isa_ext_data. This require to rework the way extensions are
parsed and split it in two phases. First phase is isa string or isa
extension list parsing and consists in enabling all the extensions in a
temporary bitmask (source isa) without any validation. The second step
"resolves" the final isa bitmap, handling potential missing dependencies.
The mechanism is quite simple and simply validate each extension
described in the source bitmap before enabling it in the resolved isa
bitmap. validate() callbacks can return either 0 for success,
-EPROBEDEFER if extension needs to be validated again at next loop. A
previous ISA bitmap is kept to avoid looping multiple times if an
extension dependencies are never satisfied until we reach a stable
state. In order to avoid any potential infinite looping, allow looping
a maximum of the number of extension we handle. Zicboz and Zicbom
extensions are modified to use this validation mechanism.

The series composes of two parts. The first part Specifically,
patch 1 adds a comment at a callsite of riscv_setup_vsize to clarify how

Here is the organization of the series:
- Patch 1, 2 provide a fix for mismatching vlen problem [1]. The
solution is to fail secondary cores if their vlenb is not the same as
the boot core.
- Patch 3 is a cleanup for introducing ZVE* Vector subextensions. It
gives the obsolete ISA parser the ability to expand ISA extensions for
sigle letter extensions.
- Patch 4, 5, 6 introduce Zve32x, Zve32f, Zve64x, Zve64f, Zve64d for isa
parsing and hwprobe, and document about it.
- Patch 7 makes has_vector() check against ZVE32X instead of V, so most
userspace Vector supports will be available for bare ZVE32X.
- Patch 8 updates the prctl test so that it runs on ZVE32X.

Make has_vector() to check for ZVE32X. Every in-kernel usage of V that
requires a more complicate version of V must then call out explicitly.
Also, change riscv_v_first_use_handler(), and boot code that calls
riscv_v_setup_vsize() to accept ZVE32X.
Most kernel/user interfaces requires minimum of ZVE32X. Thus, programs
compiled and run with ZVE32X should be supported by the kernel on most
aspects. This includes context-switch, signal, ptrace, prctl, and
hwprobe.
One exception is that ELF_HWCAP returns 'V' only if full V is supported
on the platform. This means that the system without a full V must not
rely on ELF_HWCAP to tell whether it is allowable to execute Vector

The following Vector subextensions for "embedded" platforms are added
into RISCV_HWPROBE_KEY_IMA_EXT_0:
- ZVE32X
- ZVE32F
- ZVE64X
- ZVE64F
- ZVE64D
Extensions ending with an X indicates that the platform doesn't have a
vector FPU.
Extensions ending with F/D mean that whether single (F) or double (D)
precision vector operation is supported.
The number 32 or 64 follows from ZVE tells the maximum element length.

Single-letter extensions may also imply multiple subextensions. For
example, Vector extension implies zve64d, and zve64d implies zve64f.
Extension parsing for "riscv,isa-extensions" has the ability to resolve
the dependency by calling match_isa_ext(). This patch makes deprecated
parser call the same function for single letter extensions.
