Previously, we use alternative mechanism to dynamically patch
the CMO operations for THEAD C906/C910 during boot for performance
reason. But as pointed out by Arnd, "there is already a significant
cost in accessing the invalidated cache lines afterwards, which is
likely going to be much higher than the cost of an indirect branch".
And indeed, there's no performance difference with GMAC and EMMC per
my test on Sipeed Lichee Pi 4A board.
Use riscv_nonstd_cache_ops for THEAD C906/C910 CMO to simplify
the alternative code, and to acchieve Arnd's goal -- "I think
moving the THEAD ops at the same level as all nonstandard operations
makes sense, but I'd still leave CMO as an explicit fast path that
avoids the indirect branch. This seems like the right thing to do both
for readability and for platforms on which the indirect branch has a
noticeable overhead."

Evan Green <evan@rivosinc.com> says:
There's been a bunch of off-list discussions about this, including at
Plumbers. The original plan was to do something involving providing an
ISA string to userspace, but ISA strings just aren't sufficient for a
stable ABI any more: in order to parse an ISA string users need the
version of the specifications that the string is written to, the version
of each extension (sometimes at a finer granularity than the RISC-V
releases/versions encode), and the expected use case for the ISA string
(ie, is it a U-mode or M-mode string). That's a lot of complexity to
try and keep ABI compatible and it's probably going to continue to grow,
as even if there's no more complexity in the specifications we'll have
to deal with the various ISA string parsing oddities that end up all
over userspace.
Instead this patch set takes a very different approach and provides a set
of key/value pairs that encode various bits about the system. The big
advantage here is that we can clearly define what these mean so we can
ensure ABI stability, but it also allows us to encode information that's
unlikely to ever appear in an ISA string (see the misaligned access
performance, for example). The resulting interface looks a lot like
what arm64 and x86 do, and will hopefully fit well into something like
ACPI in the future.
The actual user interface is a syscall, with a vDSO function in front of
it. The vDSO function can answer some queries without a syscall at all,
and falls back to the syscall for cases it doesn't have answers to.
Currently we prepopulate it with an array of answers for all keys and
a CPU set of "all CPUs". This can be adjusted as necessary to provide
fast answers to the most common queries.
An example series in glibc exposing this syscall and using it in an
ifunc selector for memcpy can be found at [1].
I was asked about the performance delta between this and something like
sysfs. I created a small test program and ran it on a Nezha D1
Allwinner board. Doing each operation 100000 times and dividing, these
operations take the following amount of time:
- open()+read()+close() of /sys/kernel/cpu_byteorder: 3.8us
- access("/sys/kernel/cpu_byteorder", R_OK): 1.3us
- riscv_hwprobe() vDSO and syscall: .0094us
- riscv_hwprobe() vDSO with no syscall: 0.0091us
These numbers get farther apart if we query multiple keys, as sysfs will
scale linearly with the number of keys, where the dedicated syscall
stays the same. To frame these numbers, I also did a tight
fork/exec/wait loop, which I measured as 4.8ms. So doing 4
open/read/close operations is a delta of about 0.3%, versus a single vDSO
call is a delta of essentially zero.

This allows userspace to select various routines to use based on the
performance of misaligned access on the target hardware.
Rather than adding DT bindings, this change taps into the alternatives
mechanism used to probe CPU errata. Add a new function pointer alongside
the vendor-specific errata_patch_func() that probes for desirable errata
(otherwise known as "features"). Unlike the errata_patch_func(), this
function is called on each CPU as it comes up, so it can save
feature information per-CPU.
The T-head C906 has fast unaligned access, both as defined by GCC [1],
and in performing a basic benchmark, which determined that byte copies
are >50% slower than a misaligned word copy of the same data size (source
for this test at [2]):
bytecopy size f000 count 50000 offset 0 took 31664899 us
wordcopy size f000 count 50000 offset 0 took 5180919 us

Instead of using absolute addresses for both the old instrucions and
the alternative instructions, use offsets relative to the alt_entry
values. So this not only cuts the size of the alternative entry, but
also meets the prerequisite for patching alternatives in the vDSO,
since absolute alternative entries are subject to dynamic relocation,
which is incompatible with the vDSO building.

With the T-HEAD C9XX cores being designed before or during the ratification
to the SSCOFPMF extension, it implements functionality very similar but
not equal to it.
It implements overflow handling and also some privilege-mode filtering.
While SSCOFPMF supports this for all modes, the C9XX only implements the
filtering for M-mode and S-mode but not user-mode.
So add some adaptions to allow the C9XX to still handle
its PMU through the regular SBI PMU interface instead of defining new
interfaces or drivers.
To work properly, this requires a matching change in SBI, though the actual
interface between kernel and SBI does not change.
The main differences are a the overflow CSR and irq number.
As the reading of the overflow-csr is in the hot-path during irq handling,
use an errata and alternatives to not introduce new conditionals there.

This fixes two issues: I truncated the warning's hart ID when porting to
the 64-bit hart ID code, and the original code's warning handling could
fire on an uninitialized hart ID.
The biggest change here is that riscv_cbom_block_size is no longer
initialized, as IMO the default isn't sane: there's nothing in the ISA
that mandates any specific cache block size, so falling back to one will
just silently produce the wrong answer on some systems. This also
changes the probing order so the cache block size is known before
enabling Zicbom support.

Having a list of alternatives to check with a per-entry function pointer
to a check function is nice style-wise. But in case of early-alternatives
it can clash with the non-relocated kernel and the function pointer in
the list pointing to a completely wrong location.
This isn't an issue with one or two list entries, as in that case the
compiler seems to unroll the loop and even usage of the list structure
and then only does relative jumps into the check functions based on this.
When adding a third entry to either list though, the issue that was
hiding there from the beginning is triggered resulting a jump to a
memory address that isn't part of the kernel at all.
The list of features/erratas only contained an unused name and the
pointer to the check function, so an easy solution for the problem
is to just unroll the loop in code, dismantle the whole list structure
and just call the relevant check functions one by one ourself.
For the T-Head errata this includes moving the stage-check inside
the check functions.
The issue is only relevant for things that might be called for early-
alternatives (T-Head and possible future main extensions), so the
SiFive erratas were not affected from the beginning, as they got
an early return for early-alternatives in the original patchset.
