This series reworks arm64's this_cpu_*() operations such that they do
not need to disable preemption. The scheme is described in detail in patch 13,
and is similar to the approach Heiko Carstens applied to s390 [1], which
inspired this series.

This scheme should build and function in all kernel configurations (e.g.
regardless of KPTI, SW PAN, CNP, VA BITS), and has no dependency on new
architectural features. The fixup logic should "just work" with kprobes,
etc, and I don't expect that this will need to become more complicated.

The patches are organised as follows:

* Patches 1 to 3 are preparatory fixes for latent issues which were
  found by inspection. These will need to be backported to stable, and
  have appropriate Fixes tags.

* Patches 4 to 7 are preparatory improvements to code generation issues
  found by inspection during development. These aren't strictly related
  to the PCPU GPR scheme, and it would make sense to queue these even if
  we don't go ahead with the rest of the series.

* Patches 8 to 13 are preparatory work for the PCPU GPR scheme.

* Patch 14 implements the core of the PCPU GPR scheme, with all the
  necessary exception handling logic, and the addition of helpers to
  begin/end a PCPU GPR critical section.

* Patches 15 to 20 convert this_cpu_*() operations over to the PCPU GPR
  scheme. These changes have been made over several patches to aid
  review and bisection (if necessary).

* Patch 21 removes code made redundant by earlier patches.

I've given this build-testing (with GCC and clang) and some light boot
testing.

Since v1 [2]:
* Implement necessary SDEI entry logic.
* Drop RFC tag, as I believe this is now functionally complete.
* Add patches to fix latent bugs and poor codegen (per David, and myself)
* Make gpr-num handling consistent with asm-extable.h
* Assert PCPU GPRs are distinct at compile time (per Vladimir)
* Add comments to document PCPU GPR helpers.
* Improve commit messages.
* Add tags from v1.

Since v2 [3]:
* Rebase to v7.3-rc1.
* Fix SDEI register restoration.
* Avoid -Woverflow warnings.
* Add preparatory fix for {8,16}-bit types.
* Add tags from v2.

Thanks,
Mark.

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);
| }

The LSE assembly for cmpxhg128*() has redundant operands which cause
unnecessary register pressure. These operands can be removed without
adverse effects, as described below.

It is necessary to force specific registers for the 64-bit halves of
'old' and 'new', as the encoding of CASP[A][L] requires that these
halves are allocated into even/odd register pairs, and contemporary
versions of LLVM don't support a mechanism to allocate a value into an
even/odd register pair for inline assembly. We manually allocate these
into x0/x1/x2/x3.

It is not necessary to force the address into a specific register, as
the encoding of CASP[A][L] can accept this in any GPR or SP. Hence, it
is not necessary to manually allocate the address into x4 for the
'[ptr]' operand. The assembly uses the '[v]' operand, and contemporary
compilers happen to allocate '[v]' into a separate register from
'[ptr]', meaning that '[ptr]' only serves to create register pressure.

It is not necessary to allocate the '[oldval1]' and '[oldval2]'
operands, as these are not used by the assembly. The assembly uses the
'[old1]' and '[old2]' operands for both input and output. The
'[oldval1]' and '[oldval2]' operands only serve to create register
pressure.

Remove the redundant operands. This saves on register pressure, as
demonstrated by the test case below. There's still some unfortunate
register shuffling due to the manual allocation of 'old' and 'new', but
this should be less prominent within a larger function.

Test case:

| u128 outline_cmpxchg128(u128 *p, u128 old, u128 new)
| {
| 	return cmpxchg128(p, old, new);
| }

The arm64 implementation of should_resched() doesn't treat the need to
resched as unlikely, while all other implementations do, e.g.

* asm-generic since:
  bdb43806589096ac ("sched: Extract the basic add/sub preempt_count modifiers")

* x86 since:
  c2daa3bed53a8117 ("sched, x86: Provide a per-cpu preempt_count implementation")

* s390 since:
  c360192bf4a8dc72 ("s390/preempt: move preempt_count to the lowcore")

Do the same for arm64.

In subsequent patches we'll want to use pt_regs_read_reg() and
pt_regs_write_reg() in noinstr code.

To ensure noinstr safety, both functions must be inlined into their
caller. As both functions are marked as 'inline' rather than
'__always_inline', that's not strictly guaranteed, and the compiler is
permitted to generate out-of-line copies.

Mark both functions as '__always_inline' to ensure this.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Depending on whether the kernel runs at EL1 or EL2, the percpu offset is
stored in either TPIDR_EL1 or TPIDR_EL2, and __kern_my_cpu_offset() uses
an ALTERNATIVE() sequence to read the relevant TPIDR_ELx.

In subsequent patches we'll need to read the percpu offset in other
assembly sequences. Factor the ALTERNATIVE sequence out of
__kern_my_cpu_offset() into a new __KERN_ASM_CPU_OFFSET() macro so that
we can share the code sequence.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Some A64 instructions require a W register name for specific register
arguments, and will not accept an X register name. For example:

	STRH <Wt>, [<Xn|SP>, (<Wm>|<Xm>){, <extend> {<amount>}}]

This is painful when writing macros for inline assembly, especially
where a single register is used as both an X register and a W register.

We solved this for plain assembly by adding a wxN alias for each xN
register in commit:

  4c4dcd3541f83d21 ("arm64: assembler: introduce wxN aliases for wN registers")

Add the same facility for inline assembly, with a new
__DEFINE_ASM_GPR_ALIASES macro.

As with the other macros in gpr-num.h, different escaping is necessary
for inline vs non-inline assembly, so we can't share a single definition
that we stringify().

Currently __sdei_asm_handler() avoids restoring x20 to x27, as these are
not be clobbered by existing code. This is correct today, but it makes
it awkward to rework __sdei_asm_handler(). Given the rarity of SDEI
events, restoring x20 to x27 should not have a measurable impact.

Restore x20 to x27 when returning from an SDEI event handler. This will
free up those GPRs for usage in __sdei_asm_handler() prior to return.

Currently arm64's this_cpu_*() ops transiently disable preemption in
order to guarantee that the address generation and memory access(es)
occur on the same CPU.

Transiently disabling preemption can be  expensive. When re-enabling
preemption it is necessary to make a conditional function call to
preempt_schedule[_notrace]() in order to handle the rare case that the
task needs to be rescheduled. The potential function call has a number
of negative effects on code generation (e.g. due to the need to create a
stack frame and spill registers), and the conditionality can result in
poor code generation and/or poor branch prediction.

This patch adds infrastructure for a scheme where this_cpu_*() ops do
not need to transiently disable preemption, avoiding the negative
impacts described above. Individual operations will be converted in
subsequent patches.

Each operation registers a critical section during which the exception
return code will adjust the offset and addresses if preemption occurs
mid-sequence. The critical section is registered/unregistered with a
small prologue and epilogue which encodes three distinct GPRRs (<pcp>,
<off>, <addr>) into a new thread_info::pcp_gprs field:

         // Prologue. Enable fixups for <off> and <addr>.
         mrs	<tsk>, sp_el0
         mov	<tmp>, #__VAL_PCPU_GPRS(<pcp>, <off>, <addr>)
         strh	<tmp>, [<tsk>, #TSK_TI_PCPU_GPRS]

         // Generate cpu-specific address
         mrs	<off>, TPIDR_ELx
         add	<addr>, <pcp>, <off>

         // Perform access sequence
         ldr	<val>, [<addr>]

         // Epilogue. Disable fixups
         strh	wzr, [<tsk>, #TSK_TI_PCPU_GPRS]

If an exception is taken from within the critical section, the exception
return code will adjust <off> to be the current CPU's offset, and will
adjust <addr> to be (<pcp> + <off>). Distinct registers are used for
<pcp>, <off>, and <addr>, so that the fixup can be applied safely at any
point during the critical section.

To ensure that this_cpu_*() operations within exception handlers work
correctly and do not corrupt state, thread_info::pcpu_gprs is saved
into a new pt_regs::pcpu_gprs field upon exception entry, and restored
upon exception return.

Looking at a simple this_cpu_operation:

| void outline_this_cpu_add_u64(u64 __percpu *p, u64 v)
| {
| 	this_cpu_add(*p, v);
| }

Atop v7.2-rc4, with GCC 15.2.0 and defconfig, this is compiled as:

| <outline_this_cpu_add_u64>:
|        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:     ldxr    x5, [x0]
|        add     x5, x5, x1
|        stxr    w4, x5, [x0]
|        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

With the scheme added in this patch, this can be compiled as:

| <outline_this_cpu_add_u64>:
|        mrs     x2, sp_el0
|        mov     x4, #0xc80     // __VAL_PCPU_GPRS(x0, x4, x3)

Use the PCPU GPR infrastructure to implement preemptible this_cpu_read()
and this_cpu_write().

This change means that this_cpu_read() will always use a plain LDR, even
in LTO configurations where READ_ONCE() will use LDA[P]R. Using plain
LDR is preferable, given that the rationale for using LDA[P]R in
READ_ONCE() was to retain address dependencies against values written by
other CPUs, which isn't expected usage for this_cpu_read(). Using plain
LDR will enforce fewer ordering constraints.

Test case:

| void outline_this_cpu_write_u64(u64 __percpu *p, u64 v)
| {
| 	this_cpu_write(*p, v);
| }

Use the PCPU GPR infrastructure to implement all of the RMW ops which
return a value.

Test case:

| {
| 	return this_cpu_add_return(*p, v);
| }

Use the PCPU GPR infrastructure to implement all of the {8,16,32,64}-bit
cmpxchg ops.

Note that before this patch, the LL/SC and LSE implementation was chosen
with an alternative branch. After this patch the implementations are
patched inline, matching the style of the other percpu ops.

Test case:

| u64 outline_this_cpu_cmpxchg_u64(u64 __percpu *p, u64 o, u64 n)
| {
| 	return this_cpu_cmpxchg(*p, o, n);
| }

Use the PCPU GPR infrastructure to implement this_cpu_cmpxchg128().

Note that before this patch, the LL/SC and LSE implementation was chosen
with an alternative branch. After this patch the implementations are
patched inline, matching the style of the other percpu ops.

The sub-optimal register shuffling before and after this patch occurs
because we hard-code specific registers, as LLVM (currently) lacks a way
to place a 128-bit type in a compiler-allocated even-odd pair of
registers for inline assembly. We should be able to improve that in
future, given compiler support.

Test case:

| u128 outline_this_cpu_cmpxchg128(u128 __percpu *p, u128 old, u128 new)
| {
| 	return this_cpu_cmpxchg128(*p, old, new);
| }

Now that all this_cpu_*() operations are preemptible, there are no users
of _pcp_protect() or _pcp_protect_return().

Remove them both, along with the associated comment regarding
preemption.

The arm64 implementation of this_cpu_write() casts 'val' to unsigned
long. This is necessary to handle cases where 'val' is a pointer type,
and to avoid spurious compiler warnings for the (unreachable!) cases
where the pointer type would be cast to a smaller integer type.

Unfortunately, the cast is applied to 'val' rather than '(val)', which
won't always generate the expected value when 'val' is an expression.

For example, for this_cpu_write(pcp, zero - 1), where 'pcp' is a u64 and
'zero' is a u32:

* 'zero'                      ===> (u32) 0x00000000
* 'zero - 1'                  ===> (u32) 0xffffffff
* '(unsigned long)zero - 1'   ===> (u64) 0xffffffffffffffff
* '(unsigned long)(zero - 1)' ===> (u64) 0x00000000ffffffff

Fix this by adding brackets around 'val'

The bug described above can be seen from the disassembly of the
following test code:

| void this_cpu_write_zero_minus_1(u64 __percpu *pcp)
| {
| 	u32 zero = 0;
| 	this_cpu_write(*pcp, zero - 1);
| }
|
| void this_cpu_write_zero_minus_1_brackets(u64 __percpu *pcp)
| {
| 	u32 zero = 0;
| 	this_cpu_write(*pcp, (zero - 1));
| }

The arm64 implementation of this_cpu_and(pcp, val) is built in terms of
ANDNOT operations, which requires the 'val' argument to be bitwise
negated. The bitwise negation is not implemented correctly, with two
bugs described below.

(1) The bitwise negation is performed as '~val' rather than '~(val)'.
    This won't always generate the expected value when 'val' is an
    expression.

    For example, for this_cpu_and(pcp, 1 - 1):

    * 'val'    is  '1 - 1'   ===> (int) 0x00000000
    * '~val'   is '~1 - 1'   ===> (int) 0xfffffffd
    * '~(val)' is '~(1 - 1)' ===> (int) 0xffffffff

    ... and thus bit[1] of 'pcp' would be preserved unexpectedly by the
    ANDNOT operation.

(2) The bitwise negation is performed on 'val' before it has been cast
    to (at least) the width of 'pcp'. This won't always generate the
    expected value for the upper bits.

    For example, for this_cpu_and(pcp, zero), where 'pcp' is a u64 and
    'zero' is a u32:

    * 'zero'           ===> (u32) 0x00000000
    * '~(zero)'        ===> (u32) 0xffffffff
    * '(u64)~(zero)'   ===> (u64) 0x00000000ffffffff
    * '~((u64)(zero))' ===> (u64) 0xffffffffffffffff

    ... and thus bits[63:32] of 'pcp' would be preserved unexpectedly by
    the ANDNOT operation.

Fix these issues by adding brackets around 'val', and by casting 'val'
to an appropriately-sized type before bitwise negation.

The bugs described above can be seen from the disassembly of the
following test code:

| void this_cpu_and_u64_zero(u64 __percpu *pcp)
| {
|         u64 zero = 0;
|         this_cpu_and(*pcp, zero);
| }
|
| void this_cpu_and_u32_zero(u64 __percpu *pcp)
| {
|         u32 zero = 0;
|         this_cpu_and(*pcp, zero);
| }
|
| void this_cpu_and_expr_zero(u64 __percpu *pcp)
| {
|         this_cpu_and(*pcp, 1 - 1);
| }
|
| void this_cpu_and_expr_zero_brackets(u64 __percpu *pcp)
| {
|         this_cpu_and(*pcp, (1 - 1));
| }

The __ll_sc__cmpxchg_case_##name##sz() template always takes 'old' as an
unsigned long. When 'sz' is less than 32 bits, the 'old' is explicitly
truncated so that old[31:sz-1] is zero, which is necessary so that the
W-register EOR+CBNZ sequence doesn't fail spuriously.

For 32-bit types specifically, no extension is necessary, but as 'old'
is 64 bits, the caller must extend 'old' to 64 bits. This leads to a
redundant instruction (typically a MOV) to extend the value, as can be
seen from disassembly of the test case below.

Avoid this by always taking 'old' as a 'u##sz' type, and explicitly
zero-extend this to a 64-bit or 32-bit type matching the X or W register
used by the assembly. To make this work, the table of cases now
explicitly lists 'x' for the cases where an X register is used.

For 32-bit types this removes the redundant instruction. For 64-bit
types there is no truncation, and hence no change. For {16,8}-bit types,
the existing zero-extension to 64-bit is equivalent to the new
zero-extension to 32-bit, and compilers happen to use the same
instructions for this.

I've placed the logic for zero extension into a new <asm/xwreg.h> header
as it will be used by other logic in subsequent patches.

Test case:

| u32 outline_cmpxchg_u32(u32 *p, u32 o, u32 n)
| {
|         return cmpxchg(p, o, n);
| }

Before this patch:

| <outline_cmpxchg_u32>:
|        b       1f
|        casal   w1, w2, [x0]
|        mov     w0, w1
|        ret
| 1:     mov     w3, w1
|        prfm    pstl1strm, [x0]
| 2:     ldxr    w1, [x0]
|        eor     w4, w1, w3
|        cbnz    w4, 3f
|        stlxr   w4, w2, [x0]
|        cbnz    w4, 2b
|        dmb     ish
| 3:     mov     w0, w1
|        ret

After this patch:

| <outline_cmpxchg_u32>:
|        b       1f
|        casal   w1, w2, [x0]
|        mov     w0, w1

In arm64's __preempt_count_dec_and_test(), the final conditional load of
'ti->preempt_count' is always executed in the common case. The
conditional load leads to unfortunate code generation for
preempt_enable[_notrace](), and it would be better to unconditionally
load 'ti->preempt_count', as described below.

On arm64, struct thread_info contains the following union:

| union {
|         u64             preempt_count;
|         struct {
|                 u32     count;
|                 u32     need_resched;
|         } preempt;
| };

Note: 'need_resched' is encoded so that '0' means a reschedule is
needed, and '1' means a reschedule is NOT needed.

The core logic of __preempt_count_dec_and_test() is:

| static inline bool __preempt_count_dec_and_test(void)
| {
|         struct thread_info *ti = current_thread_info();
|         u64 pc = READ_ONCE(ti->preempt_count);
|
|         WRITE_ONCE(ti->preempt.count, --pc);
|
|         return !pc || !READ_ONCE(ti->preempt_count);
| }

The '!pc' condition can only be true when both:

* The initial value of 'need_resched' was 0, meaning that a reschedule
  is needed. This should be rare.

* The initial value of 'count' was exactly 1. This cannot be true for a
  nested preempt_disable() ... preempt_enable() sequence.

Hence in common cases, '!pc' will be false, and it's necessary to
execute the final READ_ONCE(ti->preempt_count).

This results in a conditional branch in the common case, as can be seen
when __preempt_count_dec_and_test() is outlined:

| <outline___preempt_count_dec_and_test>:
|        mrs     x2, sp_el0
|        ldr     x1, [x2, #8]
|        mov     w0, #0x1
|        sub     x1, x1, #0x1
|        str     w1, [x2, #8]
|        cbz     x1, 1f
|        ldr     x0, [x2, #8]
|        cmp     x0, #0x0
|        cset    w0, eq  // eq = none
| 1:     ret

It would be better to avoid the special case for 'pc == 0', and to
always load 'ti->preempt_count' after decrementing 'ti->preempt.count'.
For the common cases this will remove a conditional branch. For the rare
cases where preemption is needed initially, this only adds a single
load, whose cost should be dominated by other factors.

Remove the special case for 'pc == 0', and always load the combined
'ti->preempt_count' after decrementing 'ti->preempt.count'.

The removal of the conditional branch helps with code generation, as the
compiler can more easily move a dependent slow path out-of-line, as
demonstrated with the following compiled with GCC 15.2.0:

| void outline_preempt_enable_notrace(void)
| {
|        preempt_enable_notrace();
| }

Before this patch:

| <outline_preempt_enable_notrace>:
|        mrs     x1, sp_el0
|        ldr     x0, [x1, #8]

|        str     w0, [x1, #8]
|        cbz     x0, 1f

For regular entry/exit sequences, we use 'tsk' (x28) to hold the current
task pointer, allowing this to be used by various assembly macros. The
SDEI entry/exit sequence uses x28 to hold the value of the interrupted
sp_el0, and doesn't retain the current task pointer in a register.

These differences makes it awkward to share assembly macros across
regular entry/exit and SDEI entry/exit, and risk surprises.

Align the SDEI entry/exit sequence with regular entry/exit, keeping the
current task pointer in 'tsk', and preserving the interrupted sp_el0 in
another (callee-saved) register. I've used x20 as x19 was already in
used for the relevant sdei_registered_event, and these are the
lowest-numbered registers above x18 (which we must preserve for shadow
call stack).

Please ignore this posting for now. I'll spin a RESEND or v4 next week.
At least one patch didn't make it to the list, and some CCs have been
dropped.

Isn't this definition exactly the same as __PERCPU_RET_OP_CASE() except
for s/tmp/ret/ and the 'return ret'?

Since the compiler will just ignore the unwanted return value
there is not point replicating the definition.
