[PATCH 11/27] arm64/sve: Core task context handling
Dave Martin
Dave.Martin at arm.com
Wed Aug 9 05:05:17 PDT 2017
This patch adds the core support for switching and managing the SVE
architectural state of user tasks.
Calls to the existing FPSIMD low-level save/restore functions are
factored out as new functions task_fpsimd_{save,load}(), since SVE
now dynamically may or may not need to be handled at these points
depending on the kernel configuration, hardware features discovered
at boot, and the runtime state of the task. To make these
decisions as fast as possible, const cpucaps are used where
feasible, via the system_supports_sve() helper.
The SVE registers are only tracked for threads that have explicitly
used SVE, indicated by the new thread flag TIF_SVE. Otherwise, the
FPSIMD view of the architectural state is stored in
thread.fpsimd_state as usual.
When in use, the SVE registers are not stored directly in
thread_struct due to their potentially large and variable size.
Because the task_struct slab allocator must be configured very
early during kernel boot, it is also tricky to configure it
correctly to match the maximum vector length provided by the
hardware, since this depends on examining secondary CPUs as well as
the primary. Instead, a pointer sve_state in thread_struct points
to a dynamically allocated buffer containing the SVE register data,
and code is added to allocate, duplicate and free this buffer at
appropriate times.
TIF_SVE is set when taking an SVE access trap from userspace, if
suitable hardware support has been detected. This enables SVE for
the thread: a subsequent return to userspace will disable the trap
accordingly. If such a trap is taken without sufficient hardware
support, SIGILL is sent to the thread instead as if an undefined
instruction had been executed: this may happen if userspace tries
to use SVE in a system where not all CPUs support it for example.
The kernel may clear TIF_SVE and disable SVE for the thread
whenever an explicit syscall is made by userspace, though this is
considered an optimisation opportunity rather than a deterministic
guarantee: the kernel may not do this on every syscall, but it is
permitted to do so. For backwards compatibility reasons and
conformance with the spirit of the base AArch64 procedure call
standard, the subset of the SVE register state that aliases the
FPSIMD registers is still preserved across a syscall even if this
happens.
TIF_SVE is also cleared, and SVE disabled, on exec: this is an
obvious slow path and a hint that we are running a new binary that
may not use SVE.
Code is added to sync data between thread.fpsimd_state and
thread.sve_state whenever enabling/disabling SVE, in a manner
consistent with the SVE architectural programmer's model.
