Subject: [PATCH v3 03/21] arm64: percpu: Fix LSE operations on {8,16}-bit types
Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2026 17:17:40 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260904161758.376504-4-mark.rutland@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260904161758.376504-1-mark.rutland@arm.com>
The assembly for __percpu_##name##_case_##sz() and
__percpu_##name##_return_case_##sz() doesn't use the 'sfx' macro
argument to form the LSE instruction. Without 'sfx', a W register
argument will imply a 32-bit memory location, and consequently
{8,16}-bit ops will erroneously read and write 32 bits of memory when
the LSE instruction is used.
Fix this by appending 'sfx' to 'op_lse' to LSE instruction. It is not
necessary (and not valid) to append 'sfx' to 'op_llsc', as 'op_llsc' is
a register-register operation which does not access memory (and does not
take a size suffix).
Test case:
| void outline_this_cpu_add_u8(u8 __percpu *p, u8 v)
| {
| this_cpu_add(*p, v);
| }
Generated inline code (same before and after this patch):
| <outline_this_cpu_add_u8>:
| paciasp
| stp x29, x30, [sp, #-16]!
| mrs x2, sp_el0
| mov x29, sp
| ldr w3, [x2, #8]
| add w3, w3, #0x1
| str w3, [x2, #8]
| mrs x3, tpidr_el1
| add x0, x0, x3
| 1: ldxrb w5, [x0] // <----------------
| add w5, w5, w1 // LL/SC alternative
| stxrb w4, w5, [x0] // instructions here
| cbnz w4, 1b // <----------------
| ldr x0, [x2, #8]
| sub x0, x0, #0x1
| str w0, [x2, #8]
| cbz x0, 2f
| ldr x0, [x2, #8]
| cbnz x0, 3f
| 2: bl preempt_schedule_notrace
| 3: ldp x29, x30, [sp], #16
| autiasp
| ret
Generated LSE alternative before this patch:
| ldadd w1, w5, [x0] // 32-bit LDADD
| nop
| nop
| nop
Generated LSE alternative after this patch:
| ldaddb w1, w5, [x0] // 8-bit LDADDB
| nop
| nop
| nop
