Last Level Cache (LLC) coloring allows to partition the cache in smaller
chunks called cache colors.
Since not all architectures can actually implement it, add a HAS_LLC_COLORING
Kconfig option.
LLC_COLORS_ORDER Kconfig option has a range maximum of 10 (2^10 = 1024)
because that's the number of colors that fit in a 4 KiB page when integers
are 4 bytes long.
LLC colors are a property of the domain, so struct domain has to be extended.

+Xen cache coloring user guide
+=============================
+
+The cache coloring support in Xen allows to reserve Last Level Cache (LLC)
+partitions for Dom0, DomUs and Xen itself. Currently only ARM64 is supported.
+Cache coloring realizes per-set cache partitioning in software and is applicable
+to shared LLCs as implemented in Cortex-A53, Cortex-A72 and similar CPUs.
+
+To compile LLC coloring support set ``CONFIG_LLC_COLORING=y``.
+
+If needed, change the maximum number of colors with
+``CONFIG_LLC_COLORS_ORDER=<n>``.
+
+Runtime configuration is done via `Command line parameters`_.
+
+Background
+**********
+
+Cache hierarchy of a modern multi-core CPU typically has first levels dedicated
+to each core (hence using multiple cache units), while the last level is shared
+among all of them. Such configuration implies that memory operations on one
+core (e.g. running a DomU) are able to generate interference on another core
+(e.g. hosting another DomU). Cache coloring realizes per-set cache-partitioning
+in software and mitigates this, guaranteeing more predictable performances for
+memory accesses.
+Software-based cache coloring is particularly useful in those situations where
+no hardware mechanisms (e.g., DSU-based way partitioning) are available to
+partition caches. This is the case for e.g., Cortex-A53, A57 and A72 CPUs that
+feature a L2 LLC cache shared among all cores.
+
+The key concept underlying cache coloring is a fragmentation of the memory
+space into a set of sub-spaces called colors that are mapped to disjoint cache
+partitions. Technically, the whole memory space is first divided into a number
+of subsequent regions. Then each region is in turn divided into a number of
+subsequent sub-colors. The generic i-th color is then obtained by all the
+i-th sub-colors in each region.
+

+
+How colors are actually defined depends on the function that maps memory to
+cache lines. In case of physically-indexed, physically-tagged caches with linear
+mapping, the set index is found by extracting some contiguous bits from the
+physical address. This allows colors to be defined as shown in figure: they
+appear in memory as subsequent blocks of equal size and repeats themselves after
+``n`` different colors, where ``n`` is the total number of colors.
+
+If some kind of bit shuffling appears in the mapping function, then colors
+assume a different layout in memory. Those kind of caches aren't supported by
+the current implementation.
+
+**Note**: Finding the exact cache mapping function can be a really difficult
+task since it's not always documented in the CPU manual. As said Cortex-A53, A57
+and A72 are known to work with the current implementation.
+
+How to compute the number of colors
+###################################
+
+Given the linear mapping from physical memory to cache lines for granted, the
+number of available colors for a specific platform is computed using three
+parameters:
+
+- the size of the LLC.
+- the number of the LLC ways.
+- the page size used by Xen.
+
+The first two parameters can be found in the processor manual, while the third
+one is the minimum mapping granularity. Dividing the cache size by the number of
+its ways we obtain the size of a way. Dividing this number by the page size,
+the number of total cache colors is found. So for example an Arm Cortex-A53
+with a 16-ways associative 1 MiB LLC can isolate up to 16 colors when pages are
+4 KiB in size.
+
+Effective colors assignment
+###########################
+
+When assigning colors, if one wants to avoid cache interference between two
+domains, different colors needs to be used for their memory.
+
+Command line parameters
+***********************
+
+Specific documentation is available at `docs/misc/xen-command-line.pandoc`.
+
++----------------------+-------------------------------+
+| **Parameter** | **Description** |
++----------------------+-------------------------------+
+| ``llc-coloring`` | Enable coloring at runtime |
++----------------------+-------------------------------+
+| ``llc-size`` | Set the LLC size |
++----------------------+-------------------------------+
+| ``llc-nr-ways`` | Set the LLC number of ways |
++----------------------+-------------------------------+
+
+Auto-probing of LLC specs
+#########################
+
+LLC size and number of ways are probed automatically by default.
+
+LLC specs can be manually set via the above command line parameters. This
+bypasses any auto-probing and it's used to overcome failing situations, such as
+flawed probing logic, or for debugging/testing purposes.

the above code does not seem to be right. When debugging or in general it is useful to have on the cmdline:
llc-size=1M llc-nr-ways=16 llc-coloring=on
and be able to disable it by just switching between on/off in llc-coloring=. However, with your solution,
even if I specify llc-coloring=off, it will be enabled because I specified both llc-size and llc-nr-ways.
I think llc-coloring= should have a precedence.

How do you differentiate from
llc-size=1M llc-nr-ways=16 llc-coloring=off
where llc coloring is disabled, and
llc-size=1M llc-nr-ways=16
where llc coloring is enabled? I mean, in both situations llc_coloring_enabled
is going to be set to false.

This certainly wants LLC in the identifier, and likely also XEN.

LLC coloring needs to know the last level cache layout in order to make the
best use of it. This can be probed by inspecting the CLIDR_EL1 register,
so the Last Level is defined as the last level visible by this register.
Note that this excludes system caches in some platforms.
Static memory allocation and cache coloring are incompatible because static
memory can't be guaranteed to use only colors assigned to the domain.
Panic during DomUs creation when both are enabled.

v10:
- moved CONFIG_NUMA check in arch/arm/Kconfig
v9:
- no changes
v8:
- no changes
v7:
- only minor changes
v6:
- get_llc_way_size() now checks for at least separate I/D caches
v5:
- used - instead of _ for filenames
- moved static-mem check in this patch
- moved dom0 colors parsing in next patch
- moved color allocation and configuration in next patch
- moved check_colors() in next patch
- colors are now printed in short form
v4:
- added "llc-coloring" cmdline option for the boot-time switch
- dom0 colors are now checked during domain init as for any other domain
- fixed processor.h masks bit width
- check for overflow in parse_color_config()
- check_colors() now checks also that colors are sorted and unique

LLC size and number of ways are probed automatically by default.
+In the Arm implementation, this is done by inspecting the CLIDR_EL1 register.
+This means that other system caches that aren't visible there are ignored.

LLC specs can be manually set via the above command line parameters. This
bypasses any auto-probing and it's used to overcome failing situations, such as

Cache coloring requires Dom0 not to be direct-mapped because of its non
contiguous mapping nature, so allocate_memory() is needed in this case.
8d2c3ab18cc1 ("arm/dom0less: put dom0less feature code in a separate module")
moved allocate_memory() in dom0less_build.c. In order to use it
in Dom0 construction bring it back to domain_build.c and declare it in
domain_build.h.
Take the opportunity to adapt the implementation of allocate_memory() so
that it uses the host layout when called on the hwdom, via
find_unallocated_memory().
Signed-off-by: Carlo Nonato <carlo.nonato@minervasys.tech>

v10:
- fixed a compilation bug that happened when dom0less support was disabled
v9:
- no changes
v8:
- patch adapted to new changes to allocate_memory()
v7:
- allocate_memory() now uses the host layout when called on the hwdom
v6:
- new patch

Instead of hardcoding, shouldn't it be GUEST_RAM_BANKS?
Also, the second bank won't work with CONFIG_ARM_PA_BITS_32 which limits PA to 32bit.

AFAICT you search for free memory. Naming it as extended regions is not a good choice.
Instead, hwdom_free_mem?

If you reuse find_unallocated_memory for a purpose other than extended regions, I think
the description of this function should change as well as comments inside.
Today, the function gets all RAM and exclude dom0 RAM (in your case is 0 at this point, reserved memory,
static shmem and gnttab (in your case is 0 at this point). I think we cannot get away without
making this function more generic. Maybe it should take as a parameter struct membanks * array?
Also, the callback add_ext_regions() may not be suited for all purposes (i.e. it takes only banks
> 64MB into account). I know that there will be more use cases for a function that will return the
free memory for domains. As an example, today, for direct mapped domains we hardcode the gnttab region
(only dom0 is special cased). This should not be like that. We would need to find a free memory region
to expose as gnttab.

This could be simplified:
const uint64_t bankbase[] = GUEST_RAM_BANK_BASES;
const uint64_t banksize[] = GUEST_RAM_BANK_SIZES;
if ( i >= GUEST_RAM_BANKS )
goto fail;
bank_start = bankbase[i];
bank_size = banksize[i];
This patch requires also opinion of other maintainers.

Right.

How is this being addressed in the current allocate_memory?
Also, LLC_COLORING depends on ARM_64. ARM_PA_BITS_32 requires ARM_32, so the
two configurations should be incompatible as of now.

For the current cases (including llc coloring) it works. If there are no
objections, a TODO plus comments and description changes you talked above is
probably sufficient to cover the (current) use-cases and "ensure" this is not
forgotten for the future extension you mention.

Add a command line parameter to allow the user to set the coloring
configuration for Dom0.
A common configuration syntax for cache colors is introduced and
documented.
Take the opportunity to also add:
- default configuration notion.
- function to check well-formed configurations.
Direct mapping Dom0 isn't possible when coloring is enabled, so
CDF_directmap flag is removed when creating it.

v10:
- fixed array type for colors parameter in check_colors()
v9:
- moved domain_llc_coloring_free() in next patch cause it's never used for dom0
v8:
- added bound check on dom0_num_colors
- default colors array set just once
v7:
- parse_color_config() doesn't accept leading/trailing commas anymore
- removed alloc_colors() helper
v6:
- moved domain_llc_coloring_free() in this patch
- removed domain_alloc_colors() in favor of a more explicit allocation
- parse_color_config() now accepts the size of the array to be filled
- allocate_memory() moved in another patch
v5:
- Carlo Nonato as the new author
- moved dom0 colors parsing (parse_colors()) in this patch
- added dom0_set_llc_colors() to set dom0 colors after creation
- moved color allocation and checking in this patch
- error handling when allocating color arrays
- FIXME: copy pasted allocate_memory() cause it got moved
v4:
- dom0 colors are dynamically allocated as for any other domain
(colors are duplicated in dom0_colors and in the new array, but logic
is simpler)

+Colors selection format
+***********************
+
+Regardless of the memory pool that has to be colored (Xen, Dom0/DomUs),
+the color selection can be expressed using the same syntax. In particular a
+comma-separated list of colors or ranges of colors is used.
+Ranges are hyphen-separated intervals (such as `0-4`) and are inclusive on both
+sides.
+
+Note that:
+
+- no spaces are allowed between values.
+- no overlapping ranges or duplicated colors are allowed.
+- values must be written in ascending order.
+
+Examples:
+
++-------------------+-----------------------------+
+| **Configuration** | **Actual selection** |

The information about max colors is not printed at the start of day, so a message like:
LLC color 20 >= 10
is not that meaningful. Could we perhaps append (max allowable) or similar to the message?

NIT: Can we surround dom0_num_colors > max_nr_colors with brackets?

Add a new domctl hypercall to allow the user to set LLC coloring
configurations. Colors can be set only once, just after domain creation,
since recoloring isn't supported.
Based on original work from: Luca Miccio <lucmiccio@gmail.com>

v10:
- no changes
v9:
- minor printk message changes
- moved domain_llc_coloring_free() in this patch
v8:
- fixed memory leak on error path of domain_set_llc_colors()
v7:
- -EOPNOTSUPP returned in case of hypercall called without llc_coloring_enabled
- domain_set_llc_colors_domctl() renamed to domain_set_llc_colors()
- added padding and input bound checks to domain_set_llc_colors()
- removed alloc_colors() helper usage from domain_set_llc_colors()
v6:
- reverted the XEN_DOMCTL_INTERFACE_VERSION bump
- reverted to uint32 for the guest handle
- explicit padding added to the domctl struct
- rewrote domain_set_llc_colors_domctl() to be more explicit
v5:
- added a new hypercall to set colors
- uint for the guest handle
v4:
- updated XEN_DOMCTL_INTERFACE_VERSION

Add a new "llc_colors" parameter that defines the LLC color assignment for
a domain. The user can specify one or more color ranges using the same
syntax used everywhere else for color config described in the
documentation.
The parameter is defined as a list of strings that represent the color
ranges.
Documentation is also added.

The hypercall seems to take a buffer of `uint32_t` for `llc_colors`, but
the parameter of the function is `unsigned int` instead, is there any
reason for them to be different?

I think we are supposed to return -1 in case of error, see:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/xen/v4.19.0/source/tools/include/xenctrl.h#L101
And there's nothing else to do, xc_hypercall_buffer_alloc() should
already have set `errno`, and PERROR() preserves it.

I don't remember anymore, but I think it should be uint32_t also for the
parameter.

An other thing I've completely forgot, with this IDL changed there will
be a need to regen some other files in the repo, namely:
tools/golang/xenlight/helpers.gen.go
tools/golang/xenlight/types.gen.go
Running this following command should be enough, even if you don't have
golang installed.
make -C tools/golang/xenlight helpers.gen.go types.gen.go
If you send an update of the patch series, it would be nice to include
the regenerated files.

PGC_static, PGC_extra and PGC_broken need to be preserved when assigning a
page. Define a new macro that groups those flags and use it instead of or'ing
every time.
To make preserved flags even more meaningful, they are kept also when
switching state in mark_page_free().
Enforce the removal of PGC_extra before freeing domain pages as this is
considered an error and can cause ASSERT violations.

PGC_extra doesn't want preserving here. Since it's mark_page_free(), and
since PGC_extra is removed before freeing, the state change is apparently
fine. But an assertion may want adding, for documentation purposes if
nothing else.
Alternatively it may make sense to indeed exclude PGC_extra here. In fact
PGC_static doesn't need using here either, as unprepare_staticmem_pages()
will explicitly set it again anyway.
Hence I wonder whether the change here really is necessary (one will then
be needed in the next patch aiui, when PGC_colored is introduced). Which
would then eliminate the need for the final two hunks of the patch, I
think.

I'm similarly unconvinced that anything other than PGC_broken (and
subsequently perhaps PGC_colored) would need preserving here.

Yes, we (re)checked the code and also believe that the introduction of
PGC_preserved is generating more confusion (and code) then the actual logical
help it provides.
We'll remove this patch and integrate PGC_colored explicitly in the flags to
be preserved. This avoid the clumsy logic of preserving something (extra)
when it's not needed and then handling the special case to remove it
explicitly.
Basically my goal is to go back to v4 where this patch didn't exist.

Hmm, no, I don't think I said anything in the direction of removing PGC_preserved
again. I merely think you went too far in where it actually wants using.

So what's wrong with having PGC_preserved _just_ for these two instances?

Add a new memory page allocator that implements the cache coloring mechanism.
The allocation algorithm enforces equal frequency distribution of cache
partitions, following the coloring configuration of a domain. This allows
for an even utilization of cache sets for every domain.
Pages are stored in a color-indexed array of lists. Those lists are filled
by a simple init function which computes the color of each page.
When a domain requests a page, the allocator extracts the page from the list
with the maximum number of free pages among those that the domain can access,
given its coloring configuration.
The allocator can only handle requests of order-0 pages. This allows for
easier implementation and since cache coloring targets only embedded systems,
it's assumed not to be a major problem.
The buddy allocator must coexist with the colored one because the Xen heap
isn't colored. For this reason a new Kconfig option and a command line
parameter are added to let the user set the amount of memory reserved for
the buddy allocator. Even when cache coloring is enabled, this memory
isn't managed by the colored allocator.
Colored heap information is dumped in the dump_heap() debug-key function.

v10:
- stated explicit dependency on CONFIG_LLC_COLORING for buddy-alloc-size
- fix for MISRA rule 20.7 parenthesis
v9:
- added ASSERT(order == 0) when freeing a colored page
- moved buddy_alloc_size initialization logic in Kconfig
v8:
- requests that uses MEMF_* flags that can't be served are now going to fail
- free_color_heap_page() is called directly from free_heap_pages()
v7:
- requests to alloc_color_heap_page() now fail if MEMF_bits is used
v6:
- colored allocator functions are now static
v5:
- Carlo Nonato as the new author
- the colored allocator balances color usage for each domain and it searches
linearly only in the number of colors (FIXME removed)
- addedd scrub functionality
- removed stub functions (still requires some macro definition)
- addr_to_color turned to mfn_to_color for easier operations
- removed BUG_ON in init_color_heap_pages() in favor of panic()
- only non empty page lists are logged in dump_color_heap()
v4:
- moved colored allocator code after buddy allocator because it now has
some dependencies on buddy functions
- buddy_alloc_size is now used only by the colored allocator
- fixed a bug that allowed the buddy to merge pages when they were colored
- free_color_heap_page() now calls mark_page_free()
- free_color_heap_page() uses of the frametable array for faster searches
- added FIXME comment for the linear search in free_color_heap_page()
- removed alloc_color_domheap_page() to let the colored allocator exploit
some more buddy allocator code
- alloc_color_heap_page() now allocs min address pages first
- reduced the mess in end_boot_allocator(): use the first loop for
init_color_heap_pages()
- fixed page_list_add_prev() (list.h) since it was doing the opposite of
what it was supposed to do
- fixed page_list_add_prev() (non list.h) to check also for next existence
- removed unused page_list_add_next()
- moved p2m code in another patch

Every time I see this, and I further see the title of patch 12, I'm confused,
expecting that what's being said here needs adjusting (or even undoing) there.
The issue is that patch 12's title says just "Xen" when, if I'm not mistaken,
it really only means the Xen image.

As the description has nothing in this regard: Why again is it that this
can't simply have "depends on LLC_COLORING"? Even if it ends up with a
value of 0, in an LLC_COLORING=n (or LLC_COLORING entirely absent) .config
I'd find it at least irritating to see this setting to be there.

According to the (updated) command line doc, this #ifdef needs to move up
so the command line option indeed is unrecognized when !LLC_COLORING.
Question then is whether the variable is actually needed. With the variable
also moved into the #ifdef, the need for BUDDY_ALLOCATOR_SIZE also goes
away when !LLC_COLORING (see the comment on the common/Kconfig change). Of
course you'll then need "#ifndef buddy_alloc_size" in
init_color_heap_pages(), around the respective if() there.

Iirc it was me who had asked to keep this and further functions outside of
#ifdef-s, for the compiler's DCE to take care of. However, with all that
Misra work that has been going on since then, I now wonder what Misra
thinks of this: When PGC_colored is 0, functions like the above are
unreachable, and any code or data the compiler doesn't manage to eliminate
would be dead. Imo if the code is to remain as is, correctness Misra-wise
may want mentioning in the description (this isn't the only place we have
such, so an overall position towards this is going to be needed).

At this point, xvmalloc() and friends want using by all new code, unless
explicitly justified otherwise.

buddy-alloc-size must not be parsed when !LLC_COLORING. I'll change the code
accordingly to what you said.

For the time being, I'll add a note that can be updated when the overall
position is found.

Hmm, I see. I didn't consider the negative effect back at the time, it seems.
The main goal was anyway to get rid of the multiple instances of
buddy_alloc_size. I'm sure that can be easily achieved also when going back
to the original form of the Kconfig option (at least partly by following what
I said in the initial reply to this v10 patch, I think).

Add a new command line parameter to configure Xen cache colors.
These colors are dumped together with other coloring info.
Benchmarking the VM interrupt response time provides an estimation of
LLC usage by Xen's most latency-critical runtime task. Results on Arm
Cortex-A53 on Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ XCZU9EG show that one color, which
reserves 64 KiB of L2, is enough to attain best responsiveness:
- Xen 1 color latency: 3.1 us
- Xen 2 color latency: 3.1 us
Since this is the most common target for Arm cache coloring, the default
amount of Xen colors is set to one.
More colors are instead very likely to be needed on processors whose L1
cache is physically-indexed and physically-tagged, such as Cortex-A57.
In such cases, coloring applies to L1 also, and there typically are two
distinct L1-colors. Therefore, reserving only one color for Xen would
senselessly partitions a cache memory that is already private, i.e.
underutilize it.

Cache coloring must physically relocate Xen in order to color the hypervisor
and consider_modules() is a key function that is needed to find a new
available physical address.
672d67f339c0 ("xen/arm: Split MMU-specific setup_mm() and related code out")
moved consider_modules() under arm32. Move it to mmu/setup.c and make it
non-static so that it can be used outside.

What's in lib.h that consider_modules() requires?
> #include <xen/libfdt/libfdt.h>

Why? AFAICS, this header defines fdt_get_mem_rsv_paddr() which is not used in this file.

Why? There's nothing LLC related here at this point.

Add the cache coloring support for Xen physical space.
Since Xen must be relocated to a new physical space, some relocation
functionalities must be brought back:
- the virtual address of the new space is taken from 0c18fb76323b
("xen/arm: Remove unused BOOT_RELOC_VIRT_START").
- relocate_xen() and get_xen_paddr() are taken from f60658c6ae47
("xen/arm: Stop relocating Xen").
setup_pagetables() must be adapted for coloring and for relocation. Runtime
page tables are used to map the colored space, but they are also linked in
boot tables so that the new space is temporarily available for relocation.
This implies that Xen protection must happen after the copy.
Finally, since the alternative framework needs to remap the Xen text and
inittext sections, this operation must be done in a coloring-aware way.
The function xen_remap_colored() is introduced for that.

v10:
- no changes
v9:
- patch adapted to changes to setup_pagetables()
v8:
- moved xen_colored_map_size() to arm/llc-coloring.c
v7:
- added BUG_ON() checks to arch_llc_coloring_init() and
create_llc_coloring_mappings()
v6:
- squashed with BOOT_RELOC_VIRT_START patch
- consider_modules() moved in another patch
- removed psci and smpboot code because of new idmap work already handles that
- moved xen_remap_colored() in alternative.c since it's only used there
- removed xen_colored_temp[] in favor of xen_xenmap[] usage for mapping
- use of boot_module_find_by_kind() to remove the need of extra parameter in
setup_pagetables()
- moved get_xen_paddr() in arm/llc-coloring.c since it's only used there
v5:
- FIXME: consider_modules copy pasted since it got moved
v4:
- removed set_value_for_secondary() because it was wrongly cleaning cache
- relocate_xen() now calls switch_ttbr_id()
