      x86/asm: Optimize unnecessarily wide TEST instructions · 3e1aa7cb
      由 Denys Vlasenko 提交于 
      By the nature of the TEST operation, it is often possible to test
a narrower part of the operand:

    "testl $3,  mem"  ->  "testb $3, mem",
    "testq $3, %rcx"  ->  "testb $3, %cl"

This results in shorter instructions, because the TEST instruction
has no sign-entending byte-immediate forms unlike other ALU ops.

Note that this change does not create any LCP (Length-Changing Prefix)
stalls, which happen when adding a 0x66 prefix, which happens when
16-bit immediates are used, which changes such TEST instructions:

  [test_opcode] [modrm] [imm32]

to:

  [0x66] [test_opcode] [modrm] [imm16]

where [imm16] has a *different length* now: 2 bytes instead of 4.
This confuses the decoder and slows down execution.

REX prefixes were carefully designed to almost never hit this case:
adding REX prefix does not change instruction length except MOVABS
and MOV [addr],RAX instruction.

This patch does not add instructions which would use a 0x66 prefix,
code changes in assembly are:

    -48 f7 07 01 00 00 00 	testq  $0x1,(%rdi)
    +f6 07 01             	testb  $0x1,(%rdi)
    -48 f7 c1 01 00 00 00 	test   $0x1,%rcx
    +f6 c1 01             	test   $0x1,%cl
    -48 f7 c1 02 00 00 00 	test   $0x2,%rcx
    +f6 c1 02             	test   $0x2,%cl
    -41 f7 c2 01 00 00 00 	test   $0x1,%r10d
    +41 f6 c2 01          	test   $0x1,%r10b
    -48 f7 c1 04 00 00 00 	test   $0x4,%rcx
    +f6 c1 04             	test   $0x4,%cl
    -48 f7 c1 08 00 00 00 	test   $0x8,%rcx
    +f6 c1 08             	test   $0x8,%cl

Linus further notes:

   "There are no stalls from using 8-bit instruction forms.

    Now, changing from 64-bit or 32-bit 'test' instructions to 8-bit ones
    *could* cause problems if it ends up having forwarding issues, so that
    instead of just forwarding the result, you end up having to wait for
    it to be stable in the L1 cache (or possibly the register file). The
    forwarding from the store buffer is simplest and most reliable if the
    read is done at the exact same address and the exact same size as the
    write that gets forwarded.

    But that's true only if:

     (a) the write was very recent and is still in the write queue. I'm
         not sure that's the case here anyway.

     (b) on at least most Intel microarchitectures, you have to test a
         different byte than the lowest one (so forwarding a 64-bit write
         to a 8-bit read ends up working fine, as long as the 8-bit read
         is of the low 8 bits of the written data).

    A very similar issue *might* show up for registers too, not just
    memory writes, if you use 'testb' with a high-byte register (where
    instead of forwarding the value from the original producer it needs to
    go through the register file and then shifted). But it's mainly a
    problem for store buffers.

    But afaik, the way Denys changed the test instructions, neither of the
    above issues should be true.

    The real problem for store buffer forwarding tends to be "write 8
    bits, read 32 bits". That can be really surprisingly expensive,
    because the read ends up having to wait until the write has hit the
    cacheline, and we might talk tens of cycles of latency here. But
    "write 32 bits, read the low 8 bits" *should* be fast on pretty much
    all x86 chips, afaik."

      x86/asm/entry: Replace this_cpu_sp0() with current_top_of_stack() and fix it on x86_32 · a7fcf28d
      由 Andy Lutomirski 提交于 
      I broke 32-bit kernels.  The implementation of sp0 was correct
as far as I can tell, but sp0 was much weirder on x86_32 than I
realized.  It has the following issues:

 - Init's sp0 is inconsistent with everything else's: non-init tasks
   are offset by 8 bytes.  (I have no idea why, and the comment is unhelpful.)

 - vm86 does crazy things to sp0.

Fix it up by replacing this_cpu_sp0() with
current_top_of_stack() and using a new percpu variable to track
the top of the stack on x86_32.

      The change:

  75182b16 ("x86/asm/entry: Switch all C consumers of kernel_stack to this_cpu_sp0()")

had the unintended side effect of changing the return value of
current_thread_info() during part of the context switch process.
Change it back.

This has no effect as far as I can tell -- it's just for
consistency.

      Merge tag 'alternatives_padding' of... · f8e92fb4

      Merge tag 'alternatives_padding' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bp/bp into x86/asm

Pull alternative instructions framework improvements from Borislav Petkov:

 "A more involved rework of the alternatives framework to be able to
  pad instructions and thus make using the alternatives macros more
  straightforward and without having to figure out old and new instruction
  sizes but have the toolchain figure that out for us.

  Furthermore, it optimizes JMPs used so that fetch and decode can be
  relieved with smaller versions of the JMPs, where possible.

  Some stats:

    x86_64 defconfig:

    Alternatives sites total:               2478
    Total padding added (in Bytes):         6051

  The padding is currently done for:

    X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS
    X86_FEATURE_ERMS
    X86_FEATURE_LFENCE_RDTSC
    X86_FEATURE_MFENCE_RDTSC
    X86_FEATURE_SMAP

  This is with the latest version of the patchset. Of course, on each
  machine the alternatives sites actually being patched are a proper
  subset of the total number."

      drm/i915: Fix modeset state confusion in the load detect code · 9128b040
      由 Daniel Vetter 提交于 
      This is a tricky story of the new atomic state handling and the legacy
code fighting over each another. The bug at hand is an underrun of the
framebuffer reference with subsequent hilarity caused by the load
detect code. Which is peculiar since the the exact same code works
fine as the implementation of the legacy setcrtc ioctl.

Let's look at the ingredients:

- Currently our code is a crazy mix of legacy modeset interfaces to
  set the parameters and half-baked atomic state tracking underneath.
  While this transition is going we're using the transitional plane
  helpers to update the atomic side (drm_plane_helper_disable/update
  and friends), i.e. plane->state->fb. Since the state structure owns
  the fb those functions take care of that themselves.

  The legacy state (specifically crtc->primary->fb) is still managed
  by the old code (and mostly by the drm core), with the fb reference
  counting done by callers (core drm for the ioctl or the i915 load
  detect code). The relevant commit is

      drm/i915: Move to atomic plane helpers (v9)

- drm_plane_helper_disable has special code to handle multiple calls
  in a row - it checks plane->crtc == NULL and bails out. This is to
  match the proper atomic implementation which needs the crtc to get
  at the implied locking context atomic updates always need. See

      drm/plane-helper: transitional atomic plane helpers

- The universal plane code split out the implicit primary plane from
  the CRTC into it's own full-blown drm_plane object. As part of that
  the setcrtc ioctl (which updated both the crtc mode and primary
  plane) learned to set crtc->primary->crtc on modeset to make sure
  the plane->crtc assignments statate up to date in

      drm: Add drm_crtc_init_with_planes() (v2)

  Unfortunately we've forgotten to update the load detect code. Which
  wasn't a problem since the load detect modeset is temporary and
  always undone before we drop the locks.

- Finally there is a organically grown history (i.e. don't ask) around
  who sets the legacy plane->fb for the various driver entry points.
  Originally updating that was the drivers duty, but for almost all
  places we've moved that (plus updating the refcounts) into the core.
  Again the exception is the load detect code.

Taking all together the following happens:
- The load detect code doesn't set crtc->primary->crtc. This is only
  really an issue on crtcs never before used or when userspace
  explicitly disabled the primary plane.

- The plane helper glue code short-circuits because of that and leaves
  a non-NULL fb behind in plane->state->fb and plane->fb. The state
  fb isn't a real problem (it's properly refcounted on its own), it's
  just the canary.

- Load detect code drops the reference for that fb, but doesn't set
  plane->fb = NULL. This is ok since it's still living in that old
  world where drivers had to clear the pointer but the core/callers
  handled the refcounting.

- On the next modeset the drm core notices plane->fb and takes care of
  refcounting it properly by doing another unref. This drops the
  refcount to zero, leaving state->plane now pointing at freed memory.

- intel_plane_duplicate_state still assume it owns a reference to that
  very state->fb and bad things start to happen.

Fix this all by applying the same duct-tape as for the legacy setcrtc
ioctl code and set crtc->primary->crtc properly.
