Hi,
This is the second posting of the legacy instruction support for
arm64. The previous posting can be found at [1].
The patchset ports the infrastructure to register hooks for undefined
instruction abort and uses this to adds support for the emulation of
SWP{B} and CP15 Barrier instructions from ARMv7 to the v8 port of
Linux.
Via sysctl, it is possible to control the runtime state of emulation
* Off
sysctl value: 0
Generates undefined instruction abort. Default for instructions that
have been obsoleted in the architecture, e.g., SWP
* Emulate
sysctl value: 1
Uses software emulation. To aid migration of software, in this mode
usage of emulated instruction is traced as well as rate limited
warnings are issued. This is the default for deprecated
instructions, .e.g., CP15 barriers
* Enable
sysctl value: 2
Although marked as deprecated, some implementations may support the
enabling/disabling of hardware support for the execution of these
instructions. Using hardware execution generally provides better
performance, but at the loss of ability to gather runtime statistics
about the use of the deprecated instructions.
Patches 1-2/5 add infrastructure code to add support for undefined
instruction hooks and decoding condition checks.
Patch 3-4/6 adds support for SWP and CP15 barriers respectively. They
also provide the ability to control the emulation by writing one of
the above three values to /proc/sys/abi file nodes.
Patch 6/6 introduces a trace point to log instruction emulation and then
uses this to trace the usage of the above instructions when using
emulation.
Although not in a merge window, the intention of the posting is to
allow early access to the code to reduce divergenece in product
kernels where additional features are being worked on.
Cheers,
Punit
Changes since [1]:
* Added support for Thumb instructions when registering undefined
hooks as well
* Emulation support is now added to armv8_deprecated.c (was previously
v7_obsolete.c)
* Instruction support level - Off, Emulate or Enable (when supported
in hardware) - is now controlled through sysctl
* Using trace points instead of debugfs for stats reporting

Add support to register hooks for undefined instructions. The handlers
will be called when the undefined instruction and the processor state
(as contained in pstate) match criteria used at registration.

The SWP instruction was deprecated in the ARMv6 architecture,
superseded by the LDREX/STREX family of instructions for
load-linked/store-conditional operations. The ARMv7 multiprocessing
extensions mandate that SWP/SWPB instructions are treated as undefined
from reset, with the ability to enable them through the System Control
Register SW bit. With ARMv8, the option to enable these instructions
through System Control Register was dropped as well.
This patch ports the alternate solution to emulate the SWP and SWPB
instructions using LDXR/STXR sequences from the arm port to
arm64. The emulation is turned off by default and can be enabled at
runtime using sysctl.

From: Punit Agrawal @ 2014-10-01 12:07 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: linux-arm-kernel
The CP15 barrier instructions (CP15ISB, CP15DSB and CP15DMB) are
deprecated in the ARMv7 architecture, superseded by ISB, DSB and DMB
instructions respectively. Some implementations may provide the
ability to disable the CP15 barriers by disabling the CP15BEN bit in
SCTLR_EL1. If not enabled, the encodings for these instructions become
undefined.
To support legacy software using these instructions, this patch adds
support to -
* emulate CP15 barriers and warn the user about their use
* toggle CP15BEN in SCTLR_EL1
The choice between using emulation or hardware execution is controlled
via sysctl. To aid migration of software it defaults to emulation.

Introduce an event to trace the usage of emulated instructions. The
trace event is intended to help identify and encourage the migration
of legacy software using the emulation features.
Use this event to trace usage of swp and CP15 barrier emulation.

[ Correcting Arnd's email. Apologies for the extra copy ]
Hi,
This is the second posting of the legacy instruction support for
arm64. The previous posting can be found at [1].
The patchset ports the infrastructure to register hooks for undefined
instruction abort and uses this to adds support for the emulation of
SWP{B} and CP15 Barrier instructions from ARMv7 to the v8 port of
Linux.
Via sysctl, it is possible to control the runtime state of emulation
* Off
sysctl value: 0
Generates undefined instruction abort. Default for instructions that
have been obsoleted in the architecture, e.g., SWP
* Emulate
sysctl value: 1
Uses software emulation. To aid migration of software, in this mode
usage of emulated instruction is traced as well as rate limited
warnings are issued. This is the default for deprecated
instructions, .e.g., CP15 barriers
* Enable
sysctl value: 2
Although marked as deprecated, some implementations may support the
enabling/disabling of hardware support for the execution of these
instructions. Using hardware execution generally provides better
performance, but at the loss of ability to gather runtime statistics
about the use of the deprecated instructions.
Patches 1-2/5 add infrastructure code to add support for undefined
instruction hooks and decoding condition checks.
Patch 3-4/6 adds support for SWP and CP15 barriers respectively. They
also provide the ability to control the emulation by writing one of
the above three values to /proc/sys/abi file nodes.
Patch 6/6 introduces a trace point to log instruction emulation and then
uses this to trace the usage of the above instructions when using
emulation.
Although not in a merge window, the intention of the posting is to
allow early access to the code to reduce divergenece in product
kernels where additional features are being worked on.
Cheers,
Punit
Changes since [1]:
* Added support for Thumb instructions when registering undefined
hooks as well
* Emulation support is now added to armv8_deprecated.c (was previously
v7_obsolete.c)
* Instruction support level - Off, Emulate or Enable (when supported
in hardware) - is now controlled through sysctl
* Using trace points instead of debugfs for stats reporting

Add support to register hooks for undefined instructions. The handlers
will be called when the undefined instruction and the processor state
(as contained in pstate) match criteria used at registration.

The SWP instruction was deprecated in the ARMv6 architecture,
superseded by the LDREX/STREX family of instructions for
load-linked/store-conditional operations. The ARMv7 multiprocessing
extensions mandate that SWP/SWPB instructions are treated as undefined
from reset, with the ability to enable them through the System Control
Register SW bit. With ARMv8, the option to enable these instructions
through System Control Register was dropped as well.
This patch ports the alternate solution to emulate the SWP and SWPB
instructions using LDXR/STXR sequences from the arm port to
arm64. The emulation is turned off by default and can be enabled at
runtime using sysctl.

To: linux-arm-kernel
The CP15 barrier instructions (CP15ISB, CP15DSB and CP15DMB) are
deprecated in the ARMv7 architecture, superseded by ISB, DSB and DMB
instructions respectively. Some implementations may provide the
ability to disable the CP15 barriers by disabling the CP15BEN bit in
SCTLR_EL1. If not enabled, the encodings for these instructions become
undefined.
To support legacy software using these instructions, this patch adds
support to -
* emulate CP15 barriers and warn the user about their use
* toggle CP15BEN in SCTLR_EL1
The choice between using emulation or hardware execution is controlled
via sysctl. To aid migration of software it defaults to emulation.

Introduce an event to trace the usage of emulated instructions. The
trace event is intended to help identify and encourage the migration
of legacy software using the emulation features.
Use this event to trace usage of swp and CP15 barrier emulation.

Do you expect this to be a generic tracepoint? Something any arch can
use, and more importantly, will use?
If not, please keep this tracepoint in the arch/arm64 directories. The
sample code in samples/trace_events/ explains how to do this.
Thanks,

This needs to be documented in Documentation/arm64/ so that people can
easily understand how to control the emulations that we have, what they
default to and why that is the case.

You don't need these brackets, but I think this is better off as an enum

Since we're going to be adding other emulations that need similar code,
perhaps it would be better to have a way to register an emulation?
E.g. something like:
enum insn_emulation_type {
INSN_UNDEF,
INSN_EMULATE,
INSN_HW,
};
enum legacy_insn_status {
INSN_DEPRECATED,
INSN_OPTIONAL,
INSN_OBSOLETE,
};
struct insn_emulation_ops {
const char *name;
enum legacy_insn_type status;
struct undef_hook hook;
int (*set_emulation_type)(enum insn_emulation_type type);
};
That way, we can move all the default behaviour handling, proc/sys
munging and undef hook handling into a single place.

I'll move this to arm64 in the next version.
