[PATCH v2 0/5] riscv: some svpbmt fixes

[Heiko Stuebner]

Some additionals comments and notes from autobuilders received
after the series got applied, warranted some changes.

So this is a small collection of cleanups for the svpbmt v10 series.

changes in v2:
- add Guo's Review
- add patch dropping the use of function pointers in code
  that can run before relocation

Heiko Stuebner (5):
  riscv: drop cpufeature_apply_feature tracking variable
  riscv: Improve description for RISCV_ISA_SVPBMT Kconfig symbol
  riscv: make patch-function pointer more generic in
    cpu_manufacturer_info struct
  riscv: fix dependency for t-head errata
  riscv: remove usage of function-pointers from cpufeatures and t-head
    errata

[PATCH v2 1/5] riscv: drop cpufeature_apply_feature tracking variable

[Heiko Stuebner]

The variable was tracking which feature patches got applied
but that information was never actually used - and thus resulted
in a warning as well.

Drop the variable.

[PATCH v2 3/5] riscv: make patch-function pointer more generic in cpu_manufacturer_info struct

[Heiko Stuebner]

During review the naming of the function-pointer was called
confusing as the vendor id is just one of three inputs for
the patching and indeed it serves no real purpose, as with
recent changes the function pointer is not a static
global element anymore, so drop the "vendor_" prefix.

[PATCH v2 4/5] riscv: fix dependency for t-head errata

[Heiko Stuebner]

alternatives only work correctly on non-xip-kernels and while the
selected alternative-symbol has the correct dependency the symbol
selecting it also needs that dependency.

So add the missing dependency to the T-Head errata Kconfig symbol.

[PATCH v2 4/5] riscv: fix dependency for t-head errata

[Heiko Stuebner]

alternatives only work correctly on non-xip-kernels and while the
selected alternative-symbol has the correct dependency the symbol
selecting it also needs that dependency.

So add the missing dependency to the T-Head errata Kconfig symbol.

Em... This is a limitation to our scenario but seems it okay for
current t-thead SoC products.

[PATCH v2 5/5] riscv: remove usage of function-pointers from cpufeatures and t-head errata

[Heiko Stuebner]

Having a list of alternatives to check with a per-entry function pointer
to a check function is nice style-wise. But in case of early-alternatives
it can clash with the non-relocated kernel and the function pointer in
the list pointing to a completely wrong location.

This isn't an issue with one or two list entries, as in that case the
compiler seems to unroll the loop and even usage of the list structure
and then only does relative jumps into the check functions based on this.

When adding a third entry to either list though, the issue that was
hiding there from the beginning is triggered resulting a jump to a
memory address that isn't part of the kernel at all.

The list of features/erratas only contained an unused name and the
pointer to the check function, so an easy solution for the problem
is to just unroll the loop in code, dismantle the whole list structure
and just call the relevant check functions one by one ourself.

For the T-Head errata this includes moving the stage-check inside
the check functions.

The issue is only relevant for things that might be called for early-
alternatives (T-Head and possible future main extensions), so the
SiFive erratas were not affected from the beginning, as they got
an early return for early-alternatives in the original patchset.

Now that this function isn't used as a function pointer anymore, it doesn't need
to be specific to SVPBMT. I think the logic here is the same for ZICBOM. Does it
make sense to move it to the calling function?

With the conflicts between this and the CMO series manually fixed:

Now that this function isn't used as a function pointer anymore, it doesn't need
to be specific to SVPBMT. I think the logic here is the same for ZICBOM. Does it
make sense to move it to the calling function?

With the conflicts between this and the CMO series manually fixed:

we don't know how other extensions need to probe though, so for example
in my yet-to-send zicbom-v3 the probe function itself looks like

static u32 __init_or_module cpufeature_probe(unsigned int stage)
{
        u32 cpu_req_feature = 0;

        if (cpufeature_probe_svpbmt(stage))
                cpu_req_feature |= (1U << CPUFEATURE_SVPBMT);

        if (cpufeature_probe_cmo(stage))
                cpu_req_feature |= (1U << CPUFEATURE_CMO);

        return cpu_req_feature;
}

As this might get longer in the future, I actually do like the actual
checks being separate for readability.

But I'll just yield to the majority opinion ;-)

IMO only three of these are actually fixes, the rest are cleanups.  I've 
got ahead and put everything on a branch, with

    riscv: Improve description for RISCV_ISA_SVPBMT Kconfig symbol
    riscv: drop cpufeature_apply_feature tracking variable
    riscv: fix dependency for t-head errata

first.  Those are on fixes, the whole thing is in for-next.

Thanks!

thanks a lot.

For the fixes I think Nathan's "riscv: Fix ALT_THEAD_PMA's asm parameters" [0]
would also be quite important.
