Subject: [PATCH] arm64: cmpxchg_double*: hazard against entire exchange
 variable

The inline assembly for arm64's cmpxchg_double*() implementations use a
+Q constraint to hazard against other accesses to the memory location
being exchanged. However, the pointer passed to the constraint is a
pointer to unsigned long, and thus the hazard only applies to the first
8 bytes of the location.

GCC can take advantage of this, assuming that other portions of the
location are unchanged, leading to a number of potential problems.

This is similar to what we fixed back in commit:

  fee960bed5e857eb ("arm64: xchg: hazard against entire exchange variable")

... but we forgot to adjust cmpxchg_double*() similarly at the same
time.

The same problem applies, as demonstrated with the following test:

| struct big {
|         u64 lo, hi;
| } __aligned(128);
|
| unsigned long foo(struct big *b)
| {
|         u64 hi_old, hi_new;
|
|         hi_old = b->hi;
|         cmpxchg_double_local(&b->lo, &b->hi, 0x12, 0x34, 0x56, 0x78);
|         hi_new = b->hi;
|
|         return hi_old ^ hi_new;
| }

... which GCC 12.1.0 compiles as:

| 0000000000000000 <foo>:
|    0:   d503233f        paciasp

|   74:   d50323bf        autiasp
|   78:   d65f03c0        ret

Notice that at the lines with "BANG" comments, GCC has assumed that the
higher 8 bytes are unchanged by the cmpxchg_double() call, and that
`hi_old ^ hi_new` can be reduced to a constant zero, for both LSE and
LL/SC versions of cmpxchg_double().

This patch fixes the issue by passing a pointer to __uint128_t into the
+Q constraint, ensuring that the compiler hazards against the entire 16
bytes being modified.

With this change, GCC 12.1.0 compiles the above test as:

... sampling the high 8 bytes before and after the cmpxchg, and
performing an EOR, as we'd expect.

For backporting, I've tested this atop linux-4.9.y with GCC 5.5.0. Note
that linux-4.9.y is oldest currently supported stable release, and
mandates GCC 5.1+. Unfortunately I couldn't get a GCC 5.1 binary to run
on my machines due to library incompatibilities.

I've also used a standalone test to check that we can use a __uint128_t
pointer in a +Q constraint at least as far back as GCC 4.8.5 and LLVM
3.9.1.
