Version generation for "const_pcpu_hot" symbol failed because genksyms
doesn't know the __seg_gs keyword. Effectively revert commit 4604c052b8
("x86/percpu: Declare const_pcpu_hot as extern const variable") and
use this_cpu_read_const() instead to avoid "sparse: dereference of
noderef expression" warning when reading const_pcpu_hot.

Some variables in pcpu_hot, currently current_task and top_of_stack
are actually per-thread variables implemented as per-CPU variables
and thus stable for the duration of the respective task. There is
already an attempt to eliminate redundant reads from these variables
using this_cpu_read_stable() asm macro, which hides the dependency
on the read memory address. However, the compiler has limited ability
to eliminate asm common subexpressions, so this approach results in a
limited success.
The solution is to allow more aggressive elimination by aliasing
pcpu_hot into a const-qualified const_pcpu_hot, and to read stable
per-CPU variables from this constant copy.
The current per-CPU infrastructure does not support reads from
const-qualified variables. However, when the compiler supports segment
qualifiers, it is possible to declare the const-aliased variable in
the relevant named address space. The compiler considers access to the
variable, declared in this way, as a read from a constant location,
and will optimize reads from the variable accordingly.
By implementing constant-qualified const_pcpu_hot, the compiler can
eliminate redundant reads from the constant variables, reducing the
number of loads from current_task from 3766 to 3217 on a test build,
a -14.6% reduction.
The reduction of loads translates to the following code savings:

Introduce x86_64 %rip-relative addressing to the PER_CPU_VAR() macro.
Instructions using %rip-relative address operand are one byte shorter
than their absolute address counterparts and are also compatible with
position independent executable (-fpie) builds. The patch reduces
code size of a test kernel build by 150 bytes.
The PER_CPU_VAR() macro is intended to be applied to a symbol and should
not be used with register operands. Introduce the new __percpu macro and
use it in cmpxchg{8,16}b_emu.S instead.
Also add a missing function comment to this_cpu_cmpxchg8b_emu().
No functional changes intended.

The "P" asm operand modifier is a x86 target-specific modifier.
When used for a constant, it drops all syntax-specific prefixes and
issues the bare constant. This modifier is not correct for address
handling, in this case a generic "a" operand modifier should be used.
The "a" asm operand modifier substitutes a memory reference, with the
actual operand treated as address. For x86_64, when a symbol is
provided, the "a" modifier emits "sym(%rip)" instead of "sym",
enabling shorter %rip-relative addressing.
Clang allows only "i" and "r" operand constraints with an "a" modifier,
so the patch normalizes the modifier/constraint pair to "a"/"i"
which is consistent between both compilers.
The patch reduces code size of a test build by 4072 bytes:

Implement arch_raw_cpu_ptr() in C to allow the compiler to perform
better optimizations, such as setting an appropriate base to compute
the address. The compiler is free to choose either MOV or ADD from
this_cpu_off address to construct the optimal final address.
There are some other issues when memory access to the percpu area is
implemented with an asm. Compilers can not eliminate asm common
subexpressions over basic block boundaries, but are extremely good
at optimizing memory access. By implementing arch_raw_cpu_ptr() in C,
the compiler can eliminate additional redundant loads from this_cpu_off,
further reducing the number of percpu offset reads from 1646 to 1631
on a test build, a -0.9% reduction.

The percpu code mostly uses inline assembly. Using segment qualifiers
allows to use C code instead, which enables the compiler to perform
various optimizations (e.g. propagation of memory arguments). Convert
percpu read and write accessors to C code, so the memory argument can
be propagated to the instruction that uses this argument.
Some examples of propagations:
a) into sign/zero extensions:
the code improves from:
65 8a 05 00 00 00 00 mov %gs:0x0(%rip),%al
0f b6 c0 movzbl %al,%eax
to:
65 0f b6 05 00 00 00 movzbl %gs:0x0(%rip),%eax
00
and in a similar way for:
movzbl %gs:0x0(%rip),%edx
movzwl %gs:0x0(%rip),%esi
movzbl %gs:0x78(%rbx),%eax
movslq %gs:0x0(%rip),%rdx
movslq %gs:(%rdi),%rbx
b) into compares:
the code improves from:
65 8b 05 00 00 00 00 mov %gs:0x0(%rip),%eax
a9 00 00 0f 00 test $0xf0000,%eax
to:
65 f7 05 00 00 00 00 testl $0xf0000,%gs:0x0(%rip)
00 00 0f 00
and in a similar way for:
testl $0xf0000,%gs:0x0(%rip)
testb $0x1,%gs:0x0(%rip)
testl $0xff00,%gs:0x0(%rip)
cmpb $0x0,%gs:0x0(%rip)
cmp %gs:0x0(%rip),%r14d
cmpw $0x8,%gs:0x0(%rip)
cmpb $0x0,%gs:(%rax)
c) into other insns:
the code improves from:
1a355: 83 fa ff cmp $0xffffffff,%edx
1a358: 75 07 jne 1a361 <...>
1a35a: 65 8b 15 00 00 00 00 mov %gs:0x0(%rip),%edx

1a35d: 65 0f 44 15 00 00 00 cmove %gs:0x0(%rip),%edx

The above propagations result in the following code size

Using a segment prefix qualifier is cleaner than using a segment prefix
in the inline assembly, and provides the compiler with more information,
telling it that __seg_gs:[addr] is different than [addr] when it
analyzes data dependencies. It also enables various optimizations that
will be implemented in the next patches.
Use segment prefix qualifiers when they are supported. Unfortunately,
gcc does not provide a way to remove segment qualifiers, which is needed
to use typeof() to create local instances of the per-CPU variable. For
this reason, do not use the segment qualifier for per-CPU variables, and
do casting using the segment qualifier instead.
Uros: Improve compiler support detection and update the patch
to the current mainline.

The fallback alternative uses %rsi register to manually load pointer
to the percpu variable before the call to the emulation function.
This is unoptimal, because the load is hidden from the compiler.
Move the load of %rsi outside inline asm, so the compiler can
reuse the value. The code in slub.o improves from:

55b0: 48 8d 4a 40 lea 0x40(%rdx),%rcx

The instruction (effectively a reg-reg move) at 55bb: in the original
assembly is removed. Also, both the CALL and replacement CMPXCHG16B
are 5 bytes long, removing the need for NOPs in the asm code.

The volatile attribute in the inline assembly of arch_raw_cpu_ptr()
forces the compiler to always generate the code, even if the compiler
can decide upfront that its result is not needed.
For instance invoking __intel_pmu_disable_all(false) (like
intel_pmu_snapshot_arch_branch_stack() does) leads to loading the
address of &cpu_hw_events into the register while compiler knows that it
has no need for it. This ends up with code like:
| movq $cpu_hw_events, %rax #, tcp_ptr__
| add %gs:this_cpu_off(%rip), %rax # this_cpu_off, tcp_ptr__
| xorl %eax, %eax # tmp93
It also creates additional code within local_lock() with !RT &&
!LOCKDEP which is not desired.
By removing the volatile attribute the compiler can place the
function freely and avoid it if it is not needed in the end.
By using the function twice the compiler properly caches only the
variable offset and always loads the CPU-offset.
this_cpu_ptr() also remains properly placed within a preempt_disable()
sections because
- arch_raw_cpu_ptr() assembly has a memory input ("m" (this_cpu_off))
- prempt_{dis,en}able() fundamentally has a 'barrier()' in it
Therefore this_cpu_ptr() is already properly serialized and does not
rely on the 'volatile' attribute.
Remove volatile from arch_raw_cpu_ptr().
[ bigeasy: Added Linus' explanation why this_cpu_ptr() is not moved out
of a preempt_disable() section without the 'volatile' attribute. ]

Eric reported that a sequence count loop using this_cpu_read() got
optimized out. This is wrong, this_cpu_read() must imply READ_ONCE()
because the interface is IRQ-safe, therefore an interrupt can have
changed the per-cpu value.

Use CC_SET(z)/CC_OUT(z) instead of explicit SETZ instruction.
Using these two defines, the compiler that supports generation of
condition code outputs from inline assembly flags generates e.g.:
cmpxchg8b %fs:(%esi)
jne 172255 <__kmalloc+0x65>
instead of:
cmpxchg8b %fs:(%esi)
sete %al
test %al,%al
je 172255 <__kmalloc+0x65>
Note that older compilers now generate:
cmpxchg8b %fs:(%esi)
sete %cl
test %cl,%cl
je 173a85 <__kmalloc+0x65>
since we have to mark that cmpxchg8b instruction outputs to %eax
register and this way clobbers the value in the register.

Omitting suffixes from instructions in AT&T mode is bad practice when
operand size cannot be determined by the assembler from register
operands, and is likely going to be warned about by upstream gas in the
future (mine does already). Add the missing suffixes here. Note that for
64-bit this means some operations change from being 32-bit to 64-bit.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Observing that per-CPU data (in the SMP case) is reachable by
exploiting 64-bit address wraparound (building on the default kernel
load address being at 16Mb), the one byte shorter RIP-relative
addressing form can be used for most per-CPU accesses. The one
exception are the "stable" reads, where the use of the "P" operand
modifier prevents the compiler from using RIP-relative addressing, but
is unavoidable due to the use of the "p" constraint (side note: with
gcc 4.9.x the intended effect of this isn't being achieved anymore,
see gcc bug 63637).
With the dependency on the minimum kernel load address, arbitrarily
low values for CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START are now no longer possible. A
link time assertion is being added, directing to the need to increase
that value when it triggers.

Both this_cpu_off and cpu_info aren't getting modified post boot, yet
are being accessed on enough code paths that grouping them with other
frequently read items seems desirable. For cpu_info this at the same
time implies removing the cache line alignment (which afaict became
pointless when it got converted to per-CPU data years ago).

__verify_pcpu_ptr() is used to verify that a specified parameter is
actually an percpu pointer by percpu accessor and operation
implementations. Currently, where it's called isn't clearly defined
and we just ensure that it's invoked at least once for all accessors
and operations.
The lack of clarity on when it should be called isn't nice and given
that this is a completely generic issue, there's no reason to make
archs worry about it.
This patch updates __verify_pcpu_ptr() invocations such that it's
always invoked from the final generic wrapper once per access or
operation. As this is already the case for {raw|this}_cpu_*()
definitions through __pcpu_size_*(), only the {raw|per|this}_cpu_ptr()
accessors need to be updated.
This change makes it unnecessary for archs to worry about
__verify_pcpu_ptr(). x86's arch_raw_cpu_ptr() is updated accordingly.

Currently, archs can override raw_cpu_ptr() directly; however, we
wanna build a layer of indirection in the generic part of percpu so
that we can implement generic features there without affecting archs.
Introduce arch_raw_cpu_ptr() which is used to define raw_cpu_ptr() by
generic percpu code. The two are identical for now. x86 is currently
the only arch which overrides raw_cpu_ptr() and is converted to
define arch_raw_cpu_ptr() instead.
This doesn't introduce any functional difference.

The kernel has never been audited to ensure that this_cpu operations are
consistently used throughout the kernel. The code generated in many
places can be improved through the use of this_cpu operations (which
uses a segment register for relocation of per cpu offsets instead of
performing address calculations).
The patch set also addresses various consistency issues in general with
the per cpu macros.
A. The semantics of __this_cpu_ptr() differs from this_cpu_ptr only
because checks are skipped. This is typically shown through a raw_
prefix. So this patch set changes the places where __this_cpu_ptr()
is used to raw_cpu_ptr().
B. There has been the long term wish by some that __this_cpu operations
would check for preemption. However, there are cases where preemption
checks need to be skipped. This patch set adds raw_cpu operations that
do not check for preemption and then adds preemption checks to the
__this_cpu operations.
C. The use of __get_cpu_var is always a reference to a percpu variable
that can also be handled via a this_cpu operation. This patch set
replaces all uses of __get_cpu_var with this_cpu operations.
D. We can then use this_cpu RMW operations in various places replacing
sequences of instructions by a single one.
E. The use of this_cpu operations throughout will allow other arches than
x86 to implement optimized references and RMV operations to work with
per cpu local data.
F. The use of this_cpu operations opens up the possibility to
further optimize code that relies on synchronization through
per cpu data.
The patch set works in a couple of stages:
I. Patch 1 adds the additional raw_cpu operations and raw_cpu_ptr().
Also converts the existing __this_cpu_xx_# primitive in the x86
code to raw_cpu_xx_#.
II. Patch 2-4 use the raw_cpu operations in places that would give
us false positives once they are enabled.
III. Patch 5 adds preemption checks to __this_cpu operations to allow
checking if preemption is properly disabled when these functions
are used.
IV. Patches 6-20 are patches that simply replace uses of __get_cpu_var
with this_cpu_ptr. They do not depend on any changes to the percpu
code. No preemption tests are skipped if they are applied.
V. Patches 21-46 are conversion patches that use this_cpu operations
in various kernel subsystems/drivers or arch code.
VI. Patches 47/48 (not included in this series) remove no longer used
functions (__this_cpu_ptr and __get_cpu_var). These should only be
applied after all the conversion patches have made it and after we
have done additional passes through the kernel to ensure that none of
the uses of these functions remain.
This patch (of 46):
The patches following this one will add preemption checks to __this_cpu
ops so we need to have an alternative way to use this_cpu operations
without preemption checks.
raw_cpu_ops will be the basis for all other ops since these will be the
operations that do not implement any checks.
Primitive operations are renamed by this patch from __this_cpu_xxx to
raw_cpu_xxxx.
Also change the uses of the x86 percpu primitives in preempt.h.
These depend directly on asm/percpu.h (header #include nesting issue).

"Two smallish changes for percpu. Two patches to remove unused

this_cpu_sub() is implemented as negation and addition.
This patch casts the adjustment to the counter type before negation to
sign extend the adjustment. This helps in cases where the counter type
is wider than an unsigned adjustment. An alternative to this patch is
to declare such operations unsupported, but it seemed useful to avoid
surprises.
This patch specifically helps the following example:
unsigned int delta = 1
preempt_disable()
this_cpu_write(long_counter, 0)
this_cpu_sub(long_counter, delta)
preempt_enable()
Before this change long_counter on a 64 bit machine ends with value
0xffffffff, rather than 0xffffffffffffffff. This is because
this_cpu_sub(pcp, delta) boils down to this_cpu_add(pcp, -delta),
which is basically:
long_counter = 0 + 0xffffffff
Also apply the same cast to:
__this_cpu_sub()
__this_cpu_sub_return()
this_cpu_sub_return()
All percpu_test.ko passes, especially the following cases which
previously failed:
l -= ui_one;
__this_cpu_sub(long_counter, ui_one);
CHECK(l, long_counter, -1);
l -= ui_one;
this_cpu_sub(long_counter, ui_one);
CHECK(l, long_counter, -1);
CHECK(l, long_counter, 0xffffffffffffffff);
ul -= ui_one;
__this_cpu_sub(ulong_counter, ui_one);
CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, -1);
CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 0xffffffffffffffff);
ul = this_cpu_sub_return(ulong_counter, ui_one);
CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 2);
ul = __this_cpu_sub_return(ulong_counter, ui_one);
CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 1);
