[PATCH 0/3] arm64: cleanup DAIF handling for EL0 returns

[PATCH 0/3] arm64: cleanup DAIF handling for EL0 returns

[Mark Rutland]

Hi,

These patches rework DAIF handling when returning to EL0, simplifiying
the logic in do_notify_resume() and allowing Debug + SError to be
unmasked for a little longer during exception return.

My primary motivation for these changes is to centralize entry/exit DAIF
management within entry-common.c, as this will allow entry/exit
sequences to be specialised, and make it much easier to add support for
FEAT_NMI. With specialized entry DAIF management, it will also be
possible to simplify local_daif_{save,restore}() and
local_irq_{save,restore}().

I'm sending this out on its own as (IMO) it's a nice cleanup on its own,
and I don't believe that I'll have the remainder of the DAIF rework
ready for this cycle.

The series is based on v6.8-rc3.

Mark.

[PATCH 1/3] arm64: Simplify do_notify_resume() DAIF masking

[Mark Rutland]

In do_notify_resume, we handle _TIF_NEED_RESCHED differently from all
other flags, leaving IRQ+FIQ masked when calling into schedule(). This
masking is a historical artifact, and it is not currently necessary
to mask IRQ+FIQ when calling into schedule (as evidenced by the generic
exit_to_user_mode_loop(), which unmasks IRQs before checking
_TIF_NEED_RESCHED and calling schedule()).

This patch removes the special case for _TIF_NEED_RESCHED, moving this
check into the main loop such that schedule() will be called from a
regular process context with IRQ+FIQ unmasked. This is a minor
simplification to do_notify_resume() and brings it into line with the
generic exit_to_user_mode_loop() logic. This will also aid subsequent
rework of DAIF management.

[PATCH 2/3] arm64: Move do_notify_resume() to entry-common.c

[Mark Rutland]

Currently do_notify_resume() lives in arch/arm64/kernel/signal.c, but it would
make more sense for it to live in entry-common.c as it handles more than
signals, and is coupled with the rest of the return-to-userspace sequence (e.g.
with unusual DAIF masking that matches the exception return requirements).

Move do_notify_resume() to entry-common.c.

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

What about moving load_daif_restore() and load_daif_mask() outside of the do-while loop?
Invoking them repeatedlly within the loop is redundant, right?

It's not entirely redundant -- we don't want to take an interrupt between the
last read of the thread flags and the actual return to userspace.

The next patch moves the DAIF masking out, so that we only have to mask+unmask
IRQ+FIQ here, but masking those is necessary. That matches the logic in the
generic exit_to_user_mode_loop().

Mark.

[PATCH 3/3] arm64: Unmask Debug + SError in do_notify_resume()

[Mark Rutland]

When returning to a user context, the arm64 entry code masks all DAIF
exceptions before handling pending work in exit_to_user_mode_prepare()
and do_notify_resume(), where it will transiently unmask all DAIF
exceptions. This is a holdover from the old entry assembly, which
conservatively masked all DAIF exceptions, and it's only necessary to
mask interrupts at this point during the exception return path, so long
as we subsequently mask all DAIF exceptions before the actual exception
return.

While most DAIF manipulation follows a save...restore sequence, the
manipulation in do_notify_resume() is the other way around, unmasking
all DAIF exceptions before masking them again. This is unfortunate as we
unnecessarily mask Debug and SError exceptions, and it would be nice to
remove this special case to make DAIF manipulation simpler and most
consistent.

This patch changes exit_to_user_mode_prepare() and do_notify_resume() to
only mask interrupts while handling pending work, masking other DAIF
exceptions after this has completed. This removes the unusual DAIF
manipulation and allows Debug and SError exceptions to be taken for a
slightly longer window during the exception return path.
