      arm64: atomics: fix use of acquire + release for full barrier semantics · 8e86f0b4
      由 Will Deacon 提交于 
      Linux requires a number of atomic operations to provide full barrier
semantics, that is no memory accesses after the operation can be
observed before any accesses up to and including the operation in
program order.

On arm64, these operations have been incorrectly implemented as follows:

	// A, B, C are independent memory locations

	<Access [A]>

	// atomic_op (B)
1:	ldaxr	x0, [B]		// Exclusive load with acquire
	<op(B)>
	stlxr	w1, x0, [B]	// Exclusive store with release
	cbnz	w1, 1b

	<Access [C]>

The assumption here being that two half barriers are equivalent to a
full barrier, so the only permitted ordering would be A -> B -> C
(where B is the atomic operation involving both a load and a store).

Unfortunately, this is not the case by the letter of the architecture
and, in fact, the accesses to A and C are permitted to pass their
nearest half barrier resulting in orderings such as Bl -> A -> C -> Bs
or Bl -> C -> A -> Bs (where Bl is the load-acquire on B and Bs is the
store-release on B). This is a clear violation of the full barrier
requirement.

The simple way to fix this is to implement the same algorithm as ARMv7
using explicit barriers:

	<Access [A]>

	// atomic_op (B)
	dmb	ish		// Full barrier
1:	ldxr	x0, [B]		// Exclusive load
	<op(B)>
	stxr	w1, x0, [B]	// Exclusive store
	cbnz	w1, 1b
	dmb	ish		// Full barrier

	<Access [C]>

but this has the undesirable effect of introducing *two* full barrier
instructions. A better approach is actually the following, non-intuitive
sequence:

	<Access [A]>

	// atomic_op (B)
1:	ldxr	x0, [B]		// Exclusive load
	<op(B)>
	stlxr	w1, x0, [B]	// Exclusive store with release
	cbnz	w1, 1b
	dmb	ish		// Full barrier

	<Access [C]>

The simple observations here are:

  - The dmb ensures that no subsequent accesses (e.g. the access to C)
    can enter or pass the atomic sequence.

  - The dmb also ensures that no prior accesses (e.g. the access to A)
    can pass the atomic sequence.

  - Therefore, no prior access can pass a subsequent access, or
    vice-versa (i.e. A is strictly ordered before C).

  - The stlxr ensures that no prior access can pass the store component
    of the atomic operation.

The only tricky part remaining is the ordering between the ldxr and the
access to A, since the absence of the first dmb means that we're now
permitting re-ordering between the ldxr and any prior accesses.

From an (arbitrary) observer's point of view, there are two scenarios:

  1. We have observed the ldxr. This means that if we perform a store to
     [B], the ldxr will still return older data. If we can observe the
     ldxr, then we can potentially observe the permitted re-ordering
     with the access to A, which is clearly an issue when compared to
     the dmb variant of the code. Thankfully, the exclusive monitor will
     save us here since it will be cleared as a result of the store and
     the ldxr will retry. Notice that any use of a later memory
     observation to imply observation of the ldxr will also imply
     observation of the access to A, since the stlxr/dmb ensure strict
     ordering.

  2. We have not observed the ldxr. This means we can perform a store
     and influence the later ldxr. However, that doesn't actually tell
     us anything about the access to [A], so we've not lost anything
     here either when compared to the dmb variant.

This patch implements this solution for our barriered atomic operations,
ensuring that we satisfy the full barrier requirements where they are
needed.

      arm64: kernel: fix per-cpu offset restore on resume · fb4a9602
      由 Lorenzo Pieralisi 提交于 
      The introduction of percpu offset optimisation through tpidr_el1 in:

Commit id :71586276
"arm64: percpu: implement optimised pcpu access using tpidr_el1"

requires cpu_{suspend/resume} to restore the tpidr_el1 register upon resume
so that percpu variables can be addressed correctly when a CPU comes out
of reset from warm-boot.

This patch fixes cpu_{suspend}/{resume} tpidr_el1 restoration on resume, by
calling the set_my_cpu_offset C API, as it is done on primary and secondary
CPUs on cold boot, so that, even if the register used to store the percpu
offset is changed, the save and restore of general purpose registers does not
have to be updated.

      arm64: kernel: restore HW breakpoint registers in cpu_suspend · 65c021bb
      由 Lorenzo Pieralisi 提交于 
      When a CPU resumes from low-power, it restores HW breakpoint and
watchpoint slots through a CPU PM notifier. Since we want to enable
debugging as early as possible in the resume path, the mdscr content
is restored along the general purpose registers in the cpu_suspend API
and debug exceptions are reenabled when cpu_suspend returns. Since the
CPU PM notifier is run after a CPU has been resumed, we cannot expect
HW breakpoint registers to contain sane values till the notifier is run,
since the HW breakpoints registers content is unknown at reset; this means
that the CPU might run with debug exceptions enabled, mdscr restored but HW
breakpoint registers containing junk values that can trigger spurious
debug exceptions.

This patch fixes current HW breakpoints restore by moving the HW breakpoints
registers restoration to the cpu_suspend API, before the debug exceptions are
enabled. This way, as soon as the cpu_suspend function returns the
kernel can resume debugging with sane values in HW breakpoint registers.
