linux-toradex.git/arch/arc/kernel, branch v5.14 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules ARC: fp: set FPU_STATUS.FWE to enable FPU_STATUS update on context switch 2021-08-04T01:58:33+00:00 Vineet Gupta vgupta@synopsys.com 2021-07-09T00:13:48+00:00 3a715e80400f452b247caa55344f4f60250ffbcf FPU_STATUS register contains FP exception flags bits which are updated by core as side-effect of FP instructions but can also be manually wiggled such as by glibc C99 functions fe{raise,clear,test}except() etc. To effect the update, the programming model requires OR'ing FWE bit (31). This bit is write-only and RAZ, meaning it is effectively auto-cleared after write and thus needs to be set everytime: which is how glibc implements this. However there's another usecase of FPU_STATUS update, at the time of Linux task switch when incoming task value needs to be programmed into the register. This was added as part of f45ba2bd6da0dc ("ARCv2: fpu: preserve userspace fpu state") which missed OR'ing FWE bit, meaning the new value is effectively not being written at all. This patch remedies that. Interestingly, this snafu was not caught in interm glibc testing as the race window which relies on a specific exception bit to be set/clear is really small specially when it nvolves context switch. Fortunately this was caught by glibc's math/test-fenv-tls test which repeatedly set/clear exception flags in a big loop, concurrently in main program and also in a thread.

FPU_STATUS register contains FP exception flags bits which are updated
by core as side-effect of FP instructions but can also be manually
wiggled such as by glibc C99 functions fe{raise,clear,test}except() etc.
To effect the update, the programming model requires OR'ing FWE
bit (31). This bit is write-only and RAZ, meaning it is effectively
auto-cleared after write and thus needs to be set everytime: which
is how glibc implements this.

However there's another usecase of FPU_STATUS update, at the time of
Linux task switch when incoming task value needs to be programmed into
the register. This was added as part of f45ba2bd6da0dc ("ARCv2:
fpu: preserve userspace fpu state") which missed OR'ing FWE bit,
meaning the new value is effectively not being written at all.
This patch remedies that.

Interestingly, this snafu was not caught in interm glibc testing as the
race window which relies on a specific exception bit to be set/clear is
really small specially when it nvolves context switch.
Fortunately this was caught by glibc's math/test-fenv-tls test which
repeatedly set/clear exception flags in a big loop, concurrently in main
program and also in a thread.

Pull scheduler udpates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Changes to core scheduling facilities:

    - Add "Core Scheduling" via CONFIG_SCHED_CORE=y, which enables
      coordinated scheduling across SMT siblings. This is a much
      requested feature for cloud computing platforms, to allow the
      flexible utilization of SMT siblings, without exposing untrusted
      domains to information leaks & side channels, plus to ensure more
      deterministic computing performance on SMT systems used by
      heterogenous workloads.

      There are new prctls to set core scheduling groups, which allows
      more flexible management of workloads that can share siblings.

    - Fix task->state access anti-patterns that may result in missed
      wakeups and rename it to ->__state in the process to catch new
      abuses.

 - Load-balancing changes:

    - Tweak newidle_balance for fair-sched, to improve 'memcache'-like
      workloads.

    - "Age" (decay) average idle time, to better track & improve
      workloads such as 'tbench'.

    - Fix & improve energy-aware (EAS) balancing logic & metrics.

    - Fix & improve the uclamp metrics.

    - Fix task migration (taskset) corner case on !CONFIG_CPUSET.

    - Fix RT and deadline utilization tracking across policy changes

    - Introduce a "burstable" CFS controller via cgroups, which allows
      bursty CPU-bound workloads to borrow a bit against their future
      quota to improve overall latencies & batching. Can be tweaked via
      /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/<X>/cpu.cfs_burst_us.

    - Rework assymetric topology/capacity detection & handling.

 - Scheduler statistics & tooling:

    - Disable delayacct by default, but add a sysctl to enable it at
      runtime if tooling needs it. Use static keys and other
      optimizations to make it more palatable.

    - Use sched_clock() in delayacct, instead of ktime_get_ns().

 - Misc cleanups and fixes.

The issue is triggered by an allocation in "init reclaimed" region.
ARC _stext emcompasses the init region (for historical reasons we wanted
the init.text to be under .text as well). This however trips up
__check_object_size()->check_kernel_text_object() which treats this as
object bleeding into kernel text.

Fix that by rezoning _stext to start from regular kernel .text and leave

ARCv2: save ABI registers across signal handling 2021-06-11T00:21:38+00:00 Vineet Gupta vgupta@synopsys.com 2021-06-09T02:39:25+00:00 96f1b00138cb8f04c742c82d0a7c460b2202e887 ARCv2 has some configuration dependent registers (r30, r58, r59) which could be targetted by the compiler. To keep the ABI stable, these were unconditionally part of the glibc ABI (sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arc/sys/ucontext.h:mcontext_t) however we missed populating them (by saving/restoring them across signal handling). This patch fixes the issue by - adding arcv2 ABI regs to kernel struct sigcontext - populating them during signal handling Change to struct sigcontext might seem like a glibc ABI change (although it primarily uses ucontext_t:mcontext_t) but the fact is - it has only been extended (existing fields are not touched) - the old sigcontext was ABI incomplete to begin with anyways Fixes: https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/linux/issues/53 Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Tested-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> Reported-by: Vladimir Isaev <isaev@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> 
ARCv2 has some configuration dependent registers (r30, r58, r59) which
could be targetted by the compiler. To keep the ABI stable, these were
unconditionally part of the glibc ABI
(sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arc/sys/ucontext.h:mcontext_t) however we
missed populating them (by saving/restoring them across signal
handling).

This patch fixes the issue by
 - adding arcv2 ABI regs to kernel struct sigcontext
 - populating them during signal handling

Change to struct sigcontext might seem like a glibc ABI change (although
it primarily uses ucontext_t:mcontext_t) but the fact is
 - it has only been extended (existing fields are not touched)
 - the old sigcontext was ABI incomplete to begin with anyways
