x86/asm/entry: Untangle 'ia32_sysenter_target' into two entry points: entry_SYSENTER_32 and entry_SYSENTER_compat So the SYSENTER instruction is pretty quirky and it has different behavior depending on bitness and CPU maker. Yet we create a false sense of coherency by naming it 'ia32_sysenter_target' in both of the cases. Split the name into its two uses: ia32_sysenter_target (32) -> entry_SYSENTER_32 ia32_sysenter_target (64) -> entry_SYSENTER_compat As per the generic naming scheme for x86 system call entry points: entry_MNEMONIC_qualifier where 'qualifier' is one of _32, _64 or _compat.

Really swap arguments #4 and #5 in stub32_clone instead of "optimizing" it into a move. Yes, tls_val is currently unused. Yes, on some CPUs XCHG is a little bit more expensive than MOV. But a cycle or two on an expensive syscall like clone() is way below noise floor, and this optimization is simply not worth the obfuscation of logic.

SYSENTER and SYSCALL 32-bit entry points differ in handling of arg2 and arg6. SYSENTER: * ecx arg2 * ebp user stack * 0(%ebp) arg6 SYSCALL: * ebp arg2 * esp user stack * 0(%esp) arg6 Sysenter code loads 0(%ebp) to %ebp right away. (This destroys %ebp. It means we do not preserve it on return. It's not causing problems since userspace VDSO code does not depend on it, and SYSENTER insn can't be sanely used outside of VDSO). Syscall code loads 0(%ebp) to %r9. This allows to eliminate one MOV insn (r9 is a register where arg6 should be for 64-bit ABI), but on audit/ptrace code paths this requires juggling of r9 and ebp: (1) ptrace expects arg6 to be in pt_regs->bp; (2) r9 is callee-clobbered register and needs to be saved/restored around calls to C functions. This patch changes syscall code to load 0(%ebp) to %ebp, making it more similar to sysenter code. It's a bit smaller: text data bss dec hex filename 1407 0 0 1407 57f ia32entry.o.before 1391 0 0 1391 56f ia32entry.o To preserve ABI compat, we restore ebp on exit. Run-tested.

32-bit syscall entry points do not save the complete pt_regs struct, they leave some fields uninitialized. However, they must be careful to not leak uninitialized data in pt_regs->r8..r11 to ptrace users. CLEAR_RREGS macro is used to zero these fields out when needed. However, in the int80 code path this zeroing is unconditional. This patch simplifies it by storing zeroes there right away, when pt_regs is constructed on stack. This uses shorter instructions: text data bss dec hex filename 1423 0 0 1423 58f ia32entry.o.before 1407 0 0 1407 57f ia32entry.o Compile-tested.

So the dwarf2 annotations in low level assembly code have become an increasing hindrance: unreadable, messy macros mixed into some of the most security sensitive code paths of the Linux kernel. These debug info annotations don't even buy the upstream kernel anything: dwarf driven stack unwinding has caused problems in the past so it's out of tree, and the upstream kernel only uses the much more robust framepointers based stack unwinding method. In addition to that there's a steady, slow bitrot going on with these annotations, requiring frequent fixups. There's no tooling and no functionality upstream that keeps it correct. So burn down the sick forest, allowing new, healthier growth: 27 files changed, 350 insertions(+), 1101 deletions(-) Someone who has the willingness and time to do this properly can attempt to reintroduce dwarf debuginfo in x86 assembly code plus dwarf unwinding from first principles, with the following conditions: - it should be maximally readable, and maximally low-key to 'ordinary' code reading and maintenance. - find a build time method to insert dwarf annotations automatically in the most common cases, for pop/push instructions that manipulate the stack pointer. This could be done for example via a preprocessing step that just looks for common patterns - plus special annotations for the few cases where we want to depart from the default. We have hundreds of CFI annotations, so automating most of that makes sense. - it should come with build tooling checks that ensure that CFI annotations are sensible. We've seen such efforts from the framepointer side, and there's no reason it couldn't be done on the dwarf side.

The early_idt_handlers asm code generates an array of entry points spaced nine bytes apart. It's not really clear from that code or from the places that reference it what's going on, and the code only works in the first place because GAS never generates two-byte JMP instructions when jumping to global labels. Clean up the code to generate the correct array stride (member size) explicitly. This should be considerably more robust against screw-ups, as GAS will warn if a .fill directive has a negative count. Using '. =' to advance would have been even more robust (it would generate an actual error if it tried to move backwards), but it would pad with nulls, confusing anyone who tries to disassemble the code. The new scheme should be much clearer to future readers. While we're at it, improve the comments and rename the array and common code. Binutils may start relaxing jumps to non-weak labels. If so, this change will fix our build, and we may need to backport this change.

The "movw %ds,%cx" instruction needs a 0x66 prefix, while "movl %ds,%ecx" does not. The difference is that latter form (on 64-bit CPUs) overwrites the entire %ecx, not only its lower half. But subsequent code doesn't depend on the value of upper half of %ecx, so we can safely use the shorter instruction. The new code is also faster than the old one - now we don't depend on the old value of %ecx, but this code fragment is not performance-critical so it does not matter much.

Packing loops tightly (-falign-loops=1) is beneficial to code size: text data bss dec filename 12566391 1617840 1089536 15273767 vmlinux.align.16-byte 12224951 1617840 1089536 14932327 vmlinux.align.1-byte 11976567 1617840 1089536 14683943 vmlinux.align.1-byte.funcs-1-byte 11903735 1617840 1089536 14611111 vmlinux.align.1-byte.funcs-1-byte.loops-1-byte Which reduces the size of the kernel by another 0.6%, so the the total combined size reduction of the alignment-packing patches is ~5.5%. The x86 decoder bandwidth and caching arguments laid out in: be6cb027 ("x86: Align jump targets to 1-byte boundaries") apply to loop alignment as well. Furtermore, modern CPU uarchs have a loop cache/buffer that is a L0 cache before even any uop cache, covering a few dozen most recently executed instructions. This loop cache generally does not have the 16-byte alignment restrictions of the uop cache. Now loop alignment can still be beneficial if: - a loop is cache-hot and its surroundings are not. - if the loop is so cache hot that the instruction flow becomes x86 decoder bandwidth limited But loop alignment is harmful if: - a loop is cache-cold - a loop's surroundings are cache-hot as well - two cache-hot loops are close to each other - if the loop fits into the loop cache - if the code flow is not decoder bandwidth limited and I'd argue that the latter five scenarios are much more common in the kernel, as our hottest loops are typically: - pointer chasing: this should fit into the loop cache in most cases and is typically data cache and address generation limited - generic memory ops (memset, memcpy, etc.): these generally fit into the loop cache as well, and are likewise data cache limited. So this patch packs loop addresses tightly as well.

The following NOP in a hot function caught my attention: > 5a: 66 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopw 0x0(%rax,%rax,1) That's a dead NOP that bloats the function a bit, added for the default 16-byte alignment that GCC applies for jump targets. I realize that x86 CPU manufacturers recommend 16-byte jump target alignments (it's in the Intel optimization manual), to help their relatively narrow decoder prefetch alignment and uop cache constraints, but the cost of that is very significant: text data bss dec filename 12566391 1617840 1089536 15273767 vmlinux.align.16-byte 12224951 1617840 1089536 14932327 vmlinux.align.1-byte By using 1-byte jump target alignment (i.e. no alignment at all) we get an almost 3% reduction in kernel size (!) - and a probably similar reduction in I$ footprint. Now, the usual justification for jump target alignment is the following: - modern decoders tend to have 16-byte (effective) decoder prefetch windows. (AMD documents it higher but measurements suggest the effective prefetch window on curretn uarchs is still around 16 bytes) - on Intel there's also the uop-cache with cachelines that have 16-byte granularity and limited associativity. - older x86 uarchs had a penalty for decoder fetches that crossed 16-byte boundaries. These limits are mostly gone from recent uarchs. So if a forward jump target is aligned to cacheline boundary then prefetches will start from a new prefetch-cacheline and there's higher chance for decoding in fewer steps and packing tightly. But I think that argument is flawed for typical optimized kernel code flows: forward jumps often go to 'cold' (uncommon) pieces of code, and aligning cold code to cache lines does not bring a lot of advantages (they are uncommon), while it causes collateral damage: - their alignment 'spreads out' the cache footprint, it shifts followup hot code further out - plus it slows down even 'cold' code that immediately follows 'hot' code (like in the above case), which could have benefited from the partial cacheline that comes off the end of hot code. But even in the cache-hot case the 16 byte alignment brings disadvantages: - it spreads out the cache footprint, possibly making the code fall out of the L1 I$. - On Intel CPUs, recent microarchitectures have plenty of uop cache (typically doubling every 3 years) - while the size of the L1 cache grows much less aggressively. So workloads are rarely uop cache limited. The only situation where alignment might matter are tight loops that could fit into a single 16 byte chunk - but those are pretty rare in the kernel: if they exist they tend to be pointer chasing or generic memory ops, which both tend to be cache miss (or cache allocation) intensive and are not decoder bandwidth limited. So the balance of arguments strongly favors packing kernel instructions tightly versus maximizing for decoder bandwidth: this patch changes the jump target alignment from 16 bytes to 1 byte (tightly packed, unaligned).

On Exynos4412 boards (Trats2, Odroid U3) after enabling L2 cache in 56b60b8b ("ARM: 8265/1: dts: exynos4: Add nodes for L2 cache controller") the second suspend to RAM failed. First suspend worked fine but the next one hang just after powering down of secondary CPUs (system consumed energy as it would be running but was not responsive). The issue was caused by enabling delayed reset assertion for CPU0 just after issuing power down of cores. This was introduced for Exynos4 in 13cfa6c4 ("ARM: EXYNOS: Fix CPU idle clock down after CPU off"). The whole behavior is not well documented but after checking with vendor code this should be done like this (on Exynos4): 1. Enable delayed reset assertion when system is running (for all CPUs). 2. Disable delayed reset assertion before suspending the system. This can be done after powering off secondary CPUs. 3. Re-enable the delayed reset assertion when system is resumed.
