Hi,

I am CCing RISC-V folks to see if there are an interest to share the code.

@RISC-V: I noticed you are discussing about importing a version of ASID 
allocator in RISC-V. At a first look, the code looks quite similar. Would the 
library below helps you?

Cheers,

Thanks!  I didn't look that closely at the original patches because the
argument against them was just "we don't have any way to test this".
Unfortunately, we don't have the constraint that there are more ASIDs than CPUs
in the system.  As a result I don't think we can use this ASID allocation
strategy.

On RISC-V, we can only use ASID if there are more ASIDs than CPUs. If there aren't enough ASIDs (or if there is only 1), then ASID feature is disabled and 0 is used everywhere.

Hi Julien,

You forgot CCing C-SKY folks :P

Move arm asid allocator code in a generic one is a agood idea, I've
made a patchset for C-SKY and test is on processing, See:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-csky/1560930553-26502-1-git-send-email-guoren@kernel.org/

If you plan to seperate it into generic one, I could co-work with you.
Or I'll bring asid code into csky subsystem first and you can cleanup
them later.

Best Regards
 Guo Ren

Was the ASID allocator work out of box on C-Sky? If so, I can easily 
move the code in a generic place (maybe lib/asid.c).

This is one place where I'd actually prefer not to go down the route of
making the code generic. Context-switching and low-level TLB management
is deeply architecture-specific and I worry that by trying to make this
code common, we run the real risk of introducing subtle bugs on some
architecture every time it is changed. Furthermore, the algorithm we use
on arm64 is designed to scale to large systems using DVM and may well be
too complex and/or sub-optimal for architectures with different system
topologies or TLB invalidation mechanisms.

It's not a lot of code, so I don't see that it's a big deal to keep it
under arch/arm64.

Almost done, but one question:
arm64 remove the code in switch_mm:
  cpumask_clear_cpu(cpu, mm_cpumask(prev));
  cpumask_set_cpu(cpu, mm_cpumask(next));

Why? Although arm64 cache operations could affect all harts with CTC
method of interconnect, I think we should
keep these code for primitive integrity in linux. Because cpu_bitmap
is in mm_struct instead of mm->context.

In current csky's patches I've also removed the codes the same as
arm64, but I'll add it back at next version.

> If so, I can easily move the code in a generic place (maybe lib/asid.c).
I think it's OK.

"Add generic asid code" and "move arm's into generic" are two things.
We could do
first and let architecture's maintainer to choose.

It's just a asid algorithm not very complex and there is a callback
for architecture to define their
own local hart tlb flush. Seems it has nothing with DVM or tlb
broadcast mechanism.

Yes, I think that's ok for arm64.

Hi Arnd,
What do you think about adding generic asid code for arch selection?

If I understand the proposal being discussed, it involves basing that
generic ASID allocation code around the arm64 implementation which I don't
necessarily think is a good starting point.

I'm pleased that you think the algorithm is not very complex, but I'm also
worried that you might not have fully understood some of its finer details.

The reason I mention DVM and TLB broadcasting is because, depending on
the mechanisms in your architecture relating to those, it may be strictly
required that all concurrently running threads of a process have the same
ASID at any given point in time, or it may be that you really don't care.

If you don't care, then the arm64 allocator is over-engineered and likely
inefficient for your system. If you do care, then it's worth considering
whether a lock is sufficient around the allocator if you don't expect high
core counts. Another possibility is that you end up using only one ASID and
invalidating the local TLB on every context switch. Yet another design
would be to manage per-cpu ASID pools.

So rather than blindly copying the arm64 code, I suggest sitting down and
designing something that fits to your architecture instead. You may end up
with something that is both simpler and more efficient.

Will

I will let Will answer to this.

Will emits concern to move the code in lib. So I will stick with what I 
currently have.

I understand your concern about my less understanding of asid
technology. Here is
my short-description of arm64 asid allocator: (If you find anything
wrong, please
correct me directly, thx :)
The asid allocator use five level check to reduce the cost of switch_mm.
 1. Check if the asid version is the same (it's general)
 2. Check reserved_asid which is set in rollover flush_context() and
the key point is
     keep the same bit position with the current asid version instead
of input version.
 3. Check if the position of bitmap is free then it could be set &
used directly.
 4. find_next_zero_bit() (a little performance cost)
 5. flush_context  (this is the worst cost with increase current asid version)

Check is level by level and cost is also higher with the next level.
The design that
impressed me the most was reserved_asid and bitmap and the 2th level and 3th
level will prevent unnecessary find_next_zero_bit().

The atomic 64 bit asid is also ok for 32-bit system and it won't cost
a lot in 1th 2th 3th
level check.

The operation of set/clear mm_cpumask was removed in arm64 compared to arm32.
It seems no side effect on current arm64 system, but from software
meaning it's wrong.
So I think it should be reserved in generic version.

I'll keep my system use the same ASID for SMP + IOMMU :P
Yes, there are two styles of asid allocator: per-cpu ASID (MIPS) or
same ASID (ARM).
If the CPU couldn't support cache/tlb coherency maintian in hardware,
it should use
per-cpu ASID style because IPI is expensive and per-cpu ASID style
need more software
mechanism to improve performance (eg: delay cache flush). From software view the
same ASID is clearer and easier to build bigger system with more TLB caches.

I think the same ASID style is a more sensible choice for modern
processor and let it be
one of generic is reasonable.

In fact, riscv folks have discussed a lot about arm's asid allocator
and I learned
a lot from the discussion:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20190327100201.32220-1-anup.patel@wdc.com/

We are developing C-SKY and RISC-V ISA cpu cores and make it generic
is good for us.

We didn't have a use for this in the arm64 code, so no point in
maintaining the mm_cpumask. On some arm32 systems (ARMv6) with no
hardware broadcast of some TLB/cache operations, we use it to track
where the task has run to issue IPI for TLB invalidation or some
deferred I-cache invalidation.

(there was also a potential optimisation on arm64 to avoid broadcast
TLBI if the task only ran on a single CPU but Will found that was rarely
the case on an SMP system because of rebalancing happening during
execve(), ending up with two bits set in the mm_cpumask)

The way you use it on csky is different from how it is done on arm. It
seems to clear the mask for the scheduled out (prev) task but this
wouldn't work on arm(64) since the TLB still contains prev entries
tagged with the scheduled out ASID. Whether it matters, I guess it
depends on the specifics of your hardware.

While the algorithm may seem fairly generic, the semantics have a few
corner cases specific to each architecture. See [1] for a description of
the semantics we need on arm64 (CnP is a feature where the hardware
threads of the same core can share the TLB; the original algorithm
violated the requirements when this feature was enabled).

BTW, if you find the algorithm fairly straightforward ;), see this
bug-fix which took a formal model to identify: a8ffaaa060b8 ("arm64:
asid: Do not replace active_asids if already 0").

The operation of set/clear mm_cpumask was removed in arm64 compared to
arm32. It seems no side effect on current arm64 system, but from
software meaning it's wrong.
I think we should keep mm_cpumask just like arm32.

Sorry for the mistake quote, what I mean is what is done in arm32:
clear all bits of mm->cpu_mask in new_context(), and set back one by
one. Here is my patch:

C-SKY SMP is only one hart per core, but here is a patch [1] with my
thought on SMT duplicate tlb flush:
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-csky/1561305869-18872-1-git-send-email-guoren@kernel.org/T/#u

For TLA+ model, I still need some learning before I could talk with you.

I think it's one fo the cases that other archs also could get benefit
from arm's asid allocator code.
Btw, Is this detected by arm's aisd allocator TLA+ model ? Or a real
bug report ?

It was a while ago now, but I remember the atomic update of the mm_cpumask
being quite expensive when I was profiling this stuff, so I removed it
because we don't need it for arm64 (at least, it doesn't allow us to
optimise our shootdowns in practice).

I still think this is over-engineered for what you want on c-sky and making
this code generic is a mistake.

The complexity mainly comes from the fact that this thing runs concurrently
with itself without synchronization on the fast-path. Coupled with the
need to use the same ASID for all threads of a task, you end up in fiddly
situations where rollover can occur on one CPU whilst another CPU is trying
to schedule a thread of a task that already has threads running in
userspace.

However, it's architecture-specific whether or not you care about that
scenario.

You will want a separate allocator for that:

I'm not sure I agree. x86, for example, is better off using a different
algorithm for allocating its PCIDs.

If you require all threads of the same process to have the same ASID, then
that patch looks broken to me.

This specific bug was found by the TLA+ model checker (at the time we
were actually tracking down another bug with multi-threaded CPU sharing
the TLB, bug also confirmed by the formal model).

FWIW: right now we don't have any implementations that support ASIDs, so we're
really not ready to make these sort of decisions because we just don't know
what systems are going to look like.  While it's a fun intellectual exercise to
try to design an allocator that would work acceptably on systems of various
shapes, there's no way to test this for performance or correctness right now so
I wouldn't be comfortable taking anything.  If you're really interested, the
right place to start is the RTL

    https://github.com/chipsalliance/rocket-chip/blob/master/src/main/scala/rocket/TLB.scala#L19

This is essentially the same problem we have for our spinlocks -- maybe start
with the TLB before doing a whole new pipeline, though :)

Hi Will,

I think mm_cpumask can be used for filtering the cpus that there are TBL 
entries on.
The OS jitter can be reduced by invalidating TLB entries only on the 
CPUs specified by mm_cpumask(mm).
As I mentioned in an earlier email, the 2.5% OS jitter can result in 
over a factor of 20 slowdown for the same application [1].
Though it may be an extreme example, reducing the OS jitter has been an 
issue in HPC environment.
I would like to avoid broadcast TLBI by using mm_cpumask on arm64, cloud 
you please tell me more about the costs caused by updating mm_cpumask?

Here is my patch:

I'm aware that you want to use IPIs for broadcasting TLB invalidation
but that is only tangentially related to this thread, which is about the
current ASID algorithm and the need to update mm_cpumask today.

Please don't conflate the two threads; I already made my position reasonably
clear:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20190617170328.GJ30800@fuggles.cambridge.arm.com/

I will follow-up with another reply there.

Could you tell me the ref-link about "another bug with multi-threaded
CPU sharing the TLB" ?

In my concept, the multi-core asid mechanism is also applicable to
multi-thread shared TLB, but it will generate redundant tlbflush. From
the software design logic, multi-threaded is treated as multi-cores
without error, but performance is not optimized. So in my RFC PATCH:
[1], I try to reduce multi-threads' tlbflush in one CPU core with the
fixed cpu ID bitmap hypothesis.

From the ASID reservation/allocation perspective, the mechanism is the
same between multi-threaded with a shared TLB and multi-core. On arm64,
a local_flush_tlb_all() on a thread invalidates the TLB for the other
threads of the same core.

The actual problem with multi-threaded CPUs is a lot more subtle.
Digging some internal email from 1.5 years ago and pasting it below
(where "current ASID algorithm" refers to the one prior to the fix and
CnP - Common Not Private - means shared TLBs on a multi-threaded CPU):


The current ASID roll-over algorithm allows for a small window where
active_asids for a CPU (P1) is different from the actual ASID in TTBR0.
This can lead to a roll-over on a different CPU (P2) allocating an ASID
(for a different task) which is still hardware-active on P1.

A TLBI on a CPU (or a peer CPU with CnP) does not guarantee that all the
entries corresponding to a valid TTBRx are removed as they can still be
speculatively loaded immediately after TLBI.

While having two different page tables with the same ASID on different
CPUs should be fine without CnP, it becomes problematic when CnP is
enabled:

P1                                      P2
--                                      --
TTBR0.BADDR = T1
TTBR0.ASID = A1
check_and_switch_context(T2,A2)
  asid_maps[P1] = A2
  goto fastpath
                                        check_and_switch_context(T3,A0)
                                          new_context
                                            ASID roll-over allocates A1
                                              since it is not active
                                          TLBI ALL
speculate TTBR0.ASID = A1 entry
                                          TTBR0.BADDR = T3
                                          TTBR0.ASID = A1
  TTBR0.BADDR = T2
  TTBR0.ASID = A2

After this, the common TLB on P1 and P2 (CnP) contains entries
corresponding to the old T1 and A1. Task T3 using the same ASID A1 can
hit such entries. (T1,A1) will eventually be removed from the TLB on the
next context switch on P1 since tlb_flush_pending was set but this is
not guaranteed to happen.


The fix on arm64 (as part of 5ffdfaedfa0a - "arm64: mm: Support Common
Not Private translations") was to set the reserved TTBR0 in
check_and_switch_context(), preventing speculative loads into the TLB
being tagged with the wrong ASID. So this is specific to the ARM CPUs
behaviour w.r.t. speculative TLB loads, it may not be the case (yet) for
your architecture.

The most important thing is that TLBI ALL occurs between
"asid_maps[P1] = A2" and "TTBR0.BADDR = T2", then speculative
execution after TLBI which access to user space code/data will result
in a valid asid entry which re-filled into the TLB by PTW.

A similar problem should exist if C-SKY ISA supports SMT. Although the
C-SKY kernel prohibits the kernel from speculating on user space code
directly, ld/st can access user space memory in csky kernel mode.
Therefore, a similar problem occurs when it speculatively executes
copy_from / to_user codes in that window.

RISC-V ISA has a SUM setting bit that prevents the kernel from
speculating access to user space. So this problem has been bypassed
from the design.

I saw arm64 to prevent speculation by temporarily setting TTBR0.el1 to
a zero page table. Is that used to prevent speculative execution user
space code or just prevent ld/st in copy_use_* ?

Only to prevent explicit ld/st from user. On ARMv8.1+, we don't normally
use the TTBR0 trick but rather disable user space access using the PAN
(privileged access never) feature. However, I don't think PAN disables
speculative accesses, only explicit loads/stores. Also, with ARMv8.2
Linux uses the LDTR/STTR instructions in copy_*_user() which don't need
to disable PAN explicitly.

Yes, it is hard to maintain ASID between IOMMU and CPUMMU or different
system, because it's difficult to synchronize the IO_ASID when the CPU
ASID is rollover.
But we could still use hardware broadcast TLB invalidation instruction
to uniformly manage the ASID and IO_ASID, or OTHER_ASID in our IOMMU.

That's probably a bad idea, because you'll likely stall execution on the
CPU until the IOTLB has completed invalidation. In the case of ATS, I think
an endpoint ATC is permitted to take over a minute to respond. In reality, I
suspect the worst you'll ever see would be in the msec range, but that's
still an unacceptable period of time to hold a CPU.

I attended this session, but it unfortunately raised many more questions
than it answered.

Just as I've said in the session that IOTLB invalidate delay is
another topic, My main proposal is to introduce stage1.pgd and
stage2.pgd as address space identifiers between different TLB systems
based on vmid, asid. My last part of sildes will show you how to
translate stage1/2.pgd to as/vmid in PCI ATS system and the method
could work with SMMU-v3 and intel Vt-d. (It's regret for me there is
no time to show you the whole slides.)

In our light IOMMU implementation, there's no IOTLB invalidate delay
problem. Becasue IOMMU is very close to CPU MMU and interconnect's
delay is the same with SMP CPUs MMU (no PCI, VM supported).

To solve the problem, we could define a async mode in sfence.vma.b to
slove the problem and finished with per_cpu_irq/exception.

It's not clear to me how this helps, but I probably don't have the whole
picture. If you have a place where it is safe to wait for the barrier to
complete, why not do the whole invalidate there?

The solution I had to this problem is pinning the ASID [1] used by the
IOMMU, to prevent the CPU from recycling the ASID on rollover. This way
the CPU doesn't have to wait for IOMMU invalidations to complete, when
scheduling a task that might not even have anything to do with the IOMMU.

In the Arm SMMU, ASID and IOASID (PASID) are separate identifiers. IOASID
indexes an entry in the context descriptor table, which contains the ASID.
So with unpinned shared ASID you don't need to invalidate the ATC on
rollover, since the IOASID doesn't change, but you do need to modify the
context descriptor and invalidate cached versions of it.

Once you have pinned ASIDs, you could also declare that IOASID = ASID. I
don't remember finding an argument to strictly forbid it, even though ASID
and IOASID have different sizes on Arm (respectively 8/16 and 20 bits).

Thanks,
Jean

With a reply stating that the patch "absolutely does not work" ;)

What exactly do you want people to do with that? It's an awful lot of effort
to review this sort of stuff and given that Guo Ren is talking about sharing
page tables between the CPU and an accelerator, maybe you're better off
stabilising Linux for the platforms that you can actually test rather than
getting so far ahead of yourselves that you end up with a bunch of wasted
work on patches that probably won't get merged any time soon.

Seriously, they say "walk before you can run", but this is more "crawl
before you can fly". What's the rush?

I agree, and I think I've been pretty clear here: we're not merging this ASID 
stuff until we have a platform we can test on, particularly as the platforms we 
have now already need some wacky hacks around TLB flushing that we haven't 
gotten to the bottom of.

This patch was tested on existing HW (which does not have ASID implementation)
and tested on QEMU (which has very simplistic Implementation of ASID).

When I asked Gary Guo about way to get access to their HW (in same patch
email thread), I did not get any reply. After so many months passed, I now
doubt the his comment "absolutely does not work".

The intention of the ASID patch was to encourage RISC-V implementations
having ASID in HW and also ensure that things don't break on existing HW.

I don't see our efforts being wasted in trying to make Linux RISC-V feature
complete and encouraging more feature rich RISC-V CPUs.

Delays in merging patches are fine as long as people have something to try
on their RISC-V CPU implementations.

Forget it, I still use irq signal in my formal proposal [1]. I also

The terminology confused me a lot. I perfer use PASID for IOMMU and
ASID is for CPU.
Arm's entry of the context descriptor table contains a "IOASID"

IOASID != ASID for CPU_TLB and IOMMU_TLB.

When you say "since the IOASID doesn't change",Is it PASID or my IOASID ? -_*!
PASID in PCI-sig was used to determine transfer address space.
For intel, the entry which is indexed by PASID also contain S1/S2.PGD
and DID(VMID).
For arm, the entry which is indexed by PASID only contain S1.PGD and
IOASID. Compare to Intel Vt-d Scalable mode, arm's design can't
support PCI Virtual Function.

ASID and IOASID are hard to keep the same between CPU system and IOMMU
system. So I introduce S1/S2.PGD.PPN as a bridge between CPUs and
IOMMUs.
See my proposal [1]

I'm the supporter of that patch:
http://archive.lwn.net:8080/linux-kernel/20190329045111.14040-1-anup.patel@wdc.com/T/#u

Because it implicit hw broadcast tlb invalidation optimization.

Honestly it's not suitable for remote tlb flush with software IPI, but
it's still much better than current RISC-V's.

I'll try it on our hardware: 910. wait a moment :)

The terminology I've been using so far is different:
* IOASID is PASID
* The entry in the context descriptor table contains an ASID, which
  is either "shared" with CPUs or "private" to the SMMU (the SMMU spec
  says "shared" or "non-shared").
* So the CPU and SMMU TLBs use ASIDs, and the PCI ATC uses IOASID

I was talking about PASID. Maybe we can drop "IOASID" and talk only
about ASID and PASID :)

The SMMU does support PCI Virtual Function - an hypervisor can assign a
VF to a guest, and let that guest partition the VF into smaller contexts
by using PASID.  What it can't support is assigning partitions of a PCI
function (VF or PF) to multiple Virtual Machines, since there is a
single S2 PGD per function (in the Stream Table Entry), rather than one
S2 PGD per PASID context.

In my concept, the two sentences "The SMMU does support PCI Virtual
Functio" v.s. "What it can't support is assigning partitions of a PCI
function (VF or PF) to multiple Virtual Machines" are conflict and I
don't want to play naming game :)

That's fine. But to prevent the spread of misinformation: Arm SMMU
supports PCI Virtual Functions.
