Currently the GEN_*_RMWcc() macros include a return statement, which
pretty much mandates we directly wrap them in a (inline) function.
Macros with return statements are tricky and, as per the above, limit
use, so remove the return statement and make them
statement-expressions. This allows them to be used more widely.
Also, shuffle the arguments a bit. Place the @cc argument as 3rd, this
makes it consistent between UNARY and BINARY, but more importantly, it
makes the @arg0 argument last.
Since the @arg0 argument is now last, we can do CPP trickery and make
it an optional argument, simplifying the users; 17 out of 18
occurences do not need this argument.
Finally, change to asm symbolic names, instead of the numeric ordering
of operands, which allows us to get rid of __BINARY_RMWcc_ARG and get
cleaner code overall.

A spanking new machine I just got has all but one USB ports wired as 3.0.
Booting defconfig resulted in no keyboard or mouse, which was pretty
uncool. Let's enable that -- USB3 is ubiquitous rather than an oddity.
As 'y' not 'm' -- recovering from initrd problems needs a keyboard.
Also add it to the 32-bit defconfig.

lockdep_assert_held() is better suited for checking locking requirements,
since it won't get confused when the lock is held by some other task. This
is also a step towards possibly removing spin_is_locked().

A sizable portion of the CPU cycles spent on the __lock_acquire() is used
up by the atomic increment of the class->ops stat counter. By taking it out
from the lock_class structure and changing it to a per-cpu per-lock-class
counter, we can reduce the amount of cacheline contention on the class
structure when multiple CPUs are trying to acquire locks of the same
class simultaneously.
To limit the increase in memory consumption because of the percpu nature
of that counter, it is now put back under the CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP
config option. So the memory consumption increase will only occur if
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP is defined. The lock_class structure, however,
is reduced in size by 16 bytes on 64-bit archs after ops removal and
a minor restructuring of the fields.
This patch also fixes a bug in the increment code as the counter is of
the 'unsigned long' type, but atomic_inc() was used to increment it.

Using macros in inline assembly allows us to work around bugs
in GCC's inlining decisions.
Compile macros.S and use it to assemble all C files.
Currently only x86 will use it.
Background:
The inlining pass of GCC doesn't include an assembler, so it's not aware
of basic properties of the generated code, such as its size in bytes,
or that there are such things as discontiuous blocks of code and data
due to the newfangled linker feature called 'sections' ...
Instead GCC uses a lazy and fragile heuristic: it does a linear count of
certain syntactic and whitespace elements in inlined assembly block source
code, such as a count of new-lines and semicolons (!), as a poor substitute
for "code size and complexity".
Unsurprisingly this heuristic falls over and breaks its neck whith certain
common types of kernel code that use inline assembly, such as the frequent
practice of putting useful information into alternative sections.
As a result of this fresh, 20+ years old GCC bug, GCC's inlining decisions
are effectively disabled for inlined functions that make use of such asm()
blocks, because GCC thinks those sections of code are "large" - when in
reality they are often result in just a very low number of machine
instructions.
This absolute lack of inlining provess when GCC comes across such asm()
blocks both increases generated kernel code size and causes performance
overhead, which is particularly noticeable on paravirt kernels, which make
frequent use of these inlining facilities in attempt to stay out of the
way when running on baremetal hardware.
Instead of fixing the compiler we use a workaround: we set an assembly macro
and call it from the inlined assembly block. As a result GCC considers the
inline assembly block as a single instruction. (Which it often isn't but I digress.)
This uglifies and bloats the source code - for example just the refcount
related changes have this impact:
Makefile | 9 +++++++--
arch/x86/Makefile | 7 +++++++
arch/x86/kernel/macros.S | 7 +++++++
scripts/Kbuild.include | 4 +++-
scripts/mod/Makefile | 2 ++
5 files changed, 26 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
Yay readability and maintainability, it's not like assembly code is hard to read
and maintain ...
We also hope that GCC will eventually get fixed, but we are not holding
our breath for that. Yet we are optimistic, it might still happen, any decade now.

When __lock_release() is called, the most likely unlock scenario is
on the innermost lock in the chain. In this case, we can skip some of

The static __lock_acquire() function has only two callers:
1) lock_acquire()
2) reacquire_held_locks()
In lock_acquire(), raw_local_irq_save() is called beforehand. So
IRQs must have been disabled. So the check:
DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(!irqs_disabled())
is kind of redundant in this case. So move the above check
to reacquire_held_locks() to eliminate redundant code in the
lock_acquire() path.

More than one kernel developer has expressed the opinion that the LKMM
should enforce ordering of writes by locking. In other words, given
the following code:
WRITE_ONCE(x, 1);
spin_unlock(&s):
spin_lock(&s);
WRITE_ONCE(y, 1);
the stores to x and y should be propagated in order to all other CPUs,
even though those other CPUs might not access the lock s. In terms of
the memory model, this means expanding the cumul-fence relation.
Locks should also provide read-read (and read-write) ordering in a
similar way. Given:
READ_ONCE(x);
spin_unlock(&s);
spin_lock(&s);
READ_ONCE(y); // or WRITE_ONCE(y, 1);
the load of x should be executed before the load of (or store to) y.
The LKMM already provides this ordering, but it provides it even in
the case where the two accesses are separated by a release/acquire
pair of fences rather than unlock/lock. This would prevent
architectures from using weakly ordered implementations of release and
acquire, which seems like an unnecessary restriction. The patch
therefore removes the ordering requirement from the LKMM for that
case.
There are several arguments both for and against this change. Let us
refer to these enhanced ordering properties by saying that the LKMM
would require locks to be RCtso (a bit of a misnomer, but analogous to
RCpc and RCsc) and it would require ordinary acquire/release only to
be RCpc. (Note: In the following, the phrase "all supported
architectures" is meant not to include RISC-V. Although RISC-V is
indeed supported by the kernel, the implementation is still somewhat
in a state of flux and therefore statements about it would be
premature.)
Pros:
The kernel already provides RCtso ordering for locks on all
supported architectures, even though this is not stated
explicitly anywhere. Therefore the LKMM should formalize it.
In theory, guaranteeing RCtso ordering would reduce the need
for additional barrier-like constructs meant to increase the
ordering strength of locks.
Will Deacon and Peter Zijlstra are strongly in favor of
formalizing the RCtso requirement. Linus Torvalds and Will
would like to go even further, requiring locks to have RCsc
behavior (ordering preceding writes against later reads), but
they recognize that this would incur a noticeable performance
degradation on the POWER architecture. Linus also points out
that people have made the mistake, in the past, of assuming
that locking has stronger ordering properties than is
currently guaranteed, and this change would reduce the
likelihood of such mistakes.
Not requiring ordinary acquire/release to be any stronger than
RCpc may prove advantageous for future architectures, allowing
them to implement smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release()
with more efficient machine instructions than would be
possible if the operations had to be RCtso. Will and Linus
approve this rationale, hypothetical though it is at the
moment (it may end up affecting the RISC-V implementation).
The same argument may or may not apply to RMW-acquire/release;
see also the second Con entry below.
Linus feels that locks should be easy for people to use
without worrying about memory consistency issues, since they
are so pervasive in the kernel, whereas acquire/release is
much more of an "experts only" tool. Requiring locks to be
RCtso is a step in this direction.
Cons:
Andrea Parri and Luc Maranget think that locks should have the
same ordering properties as ordinary acquire/release (indeed,
Luc points out that the names "acquire" and "release" derive
from the usage of locks). Andrea points out that having
different ordering properties for different forms of acquires
and releases is not only unnecessary, it would also be
confusing and unmaintainable.
Locks are constructed from lower-level primitives, typically
RMW-acquire (for locking) and ordinary release (for unlock).
It is illogical to require stronger ordering properties from
the high-level operations than from the low-level operations
they comprise. Thus, this change would make
while (cmpxchg_acquire(&s, 0, 1) != 0)
cpu_relax();
an incorrect implementation of spin_lock(&s) as far as the
LKMM is concerned. In theory this weakness can be ameliorated
by changing the LKMM even further, requiring
RMW-acquire/release also to be RCtso (which it already is on
all supported architectures).
As far as I know, nobody has singled out any examples of code
in the kernel that actually relies on locks being RCtso.
(People mumble about RCU and the scheduler, but nobody has
pointed to any actual code. If there are any real cases,
their number is likely quite small.) If RCtso ordering is not
needed, why require it?
A handful of locking constructs (qspinlocks, qrwlocks, and
mcs_spinlocks) are built on top of smp_cond_load_acquire()
instead of an RMW-acquire instruction. It currently provides
only the ordinary acquire semantics, not the stronger ordering
this patch would require of locks. In theory this could be
ameliorated by requiring smp_cond_load_acquire() in
combination with ordinary release also to be RCtso (which is
currently true on all supported architectures).
On future weakly ordered architectures, people may be able to
implement locks in a non-RCtso fashion with significant
performance improvement. Meeting the RCtso requirement would
necessarily add run-time overhead.
Overall, the technical aspects of these arguments seem relatively
minor, and it appears mostly to boil down to a matter of opinion.
Since the opinions of senior kernel maintainers such as Linus,
Peter, and Will carry more weight than those of Luc and Andrea, this
patch changes the model in accordance with the maintainers' wishes.

Both spin locks and write locks currently do:
f0 0f b1 17 lock cmpxchg %edx,(%rdi)
85 c0 test %eax,%eax
75 05 jne [slowpath]
This 'test' insn is superfluous; the cmpxchg insn sets the Z flag
appropriately. Peter pointed out that using atomic_try_cmpxchg_acquire()
will let the compiler know this is true. Comparing before/after
disassemblies show the only effect is to remove this insn.
Take this opportunity to make the spin & write lock code resemble each
other more closely and have similar likely() hints.

Commit 19483677684b ("jump_label: Annotate entries that operate on
__init code earlier") refactored the code that manages runtime
patching of jump labels in modules that are tied to static keys
defined in other modules or in the core kernel.
In the latter case, we may iterate over the static_key_mod linked
list until we hit the entry for the core kernel, whose 'mod' field
will be NULL, and attempt to dereference it to get at its 'state'
member.
So let's add a non-NULL check: this forces the 'init' argument of
__jump_label_update() to false for static keys that are defined in
the core kernel, which is appropriate given that __init annotated
jump_label entries in the core kernel should no longer be active
at this point (i.e., when loading modules).

As reported by nixiaoming, with some minor clarifications:
1) memory leak in ramoops_register_dummy():
dummy_data = kzalloc(sizeof(*dummy_data), GFP_KERNEL);
but no kfree() if platform_device_register_data() fails.
2) memory leak in ramoops_init():
Missing platform_device_unregister(dummy) and kfree(dummy_data)
if platform_driver_register(&ramoops_driver) fails.
I've clarified the purpose of ramoops_register_dummy(), and added a
common cleanup routine for all three failure paths to call.

Commit b2d35fa5fc80 ("selftests: add headers_install to lib.mk")
introduced a requirement that Makefiles more than one level below the
selftests directory need to define top_srcdir, but it didn't update
any of the powerpc Makefiles.
This broke building all the powerpc selftests with eg:
make[1]: Entering directory '/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc'
BUILD_TARGET=/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/alignment; mkdir -p $BUILD_TARGET; make OUTPUT=$BUILD_TARGET -k -C alignment all
make[2]: Entering directory '/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/alignment'
../../lib.mk:20: ../../../../scripts/subarch.include: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** No rule to make target '../../../../scripts/subarch.include'.
make[2]: Failed to remake makefile '../../../../scripts/subarch.include'.
Makefile:38: recipe for target 'alignment' failed
Fix it by setting top_srcdir in the affected Makefiles.

trace_block_unplug() takes true for explicit unplugs and false for
implicit unplugs. schedule() unplugs are implicit and should be
reported as timer unplugs. While correct in the legacy code, this has
been inverted in blk-mq since 4.11.

When dax_lock_mapping_entry() has to sleep to obtain entry lock, it will
fail to unlock mapping->i_pages spinlock and thus immediately deadlock
against itself when retrying to grab the entry lock again. Fix the
problem by unlocking mapping->i_pages before retrying.

Commit
1958b5fc4010 ("x86/boot: Add early boot support when running with SEV active")
can occasionally cause system resets when kexec-ing a second kernel even
if SEV is not active.
That's because get_sev_encryption_bit() uses 32-bit rIP-relative
addressing to read the value of enc_bit - a variable which caches a
previously detected encryption bit position - but kexec may allocate
the early boot code to a higher location, beyond the 32-bit addressing
limit.
In this case, garbage will be read and get_sev_encryption_bit() will
return the wrong value, leading to accessing memory with the wrong
encryption setting.
Therefore, remove enc_bit, and thus get rid of the need to do 32-bit
rIP-relative addressing in the first place.

The __jump_table sections emitted into the core kernel and into
each module consist of statically initialized references into
other parts of the code, and with the exception of entries that
point into init code, which are defused at post-init time, these
data structures are never modified.
So let's move them into the ro_after_init section, to prevent them
from being corrupted inadvertently by buggy code, or deliberately
by an attacker.

Jump table entries are mostly read-only, with the exception of the
init and module loader code that defuses entries that point into init
code when the code being referred to is freed.
For robustness, it would be better to move these entries into the
ro_after_init section, but clearing the 'code' member of each jump
table entry referring to init code at module load time races with the
module_enable_ro() call that remaps the ro_after_init section read
only, so we'd like to do it earlier.
So given that whether such an entry refers to init code can be decided
much earlier, we can pull this check forward. Since we may still need
the code entry at this point, let's switch to setting a low bit in the
'key' member just like we do to annotate the default state of a jump
table entry.

Similar to the arm64 case, 64-bit x86 can benefit from using relative
references rather than absolute ones when emitting struct jump_entry
instances. Not only does this reduce the memory footprint of the entries
themselves by 33%, it also removes the need for carrying relocation
metadata on relocatable builds (i.e., for KASLR) which saves a fair
chunk of .init space as well (although the savings are not as dramatic
as on arm64)

In preparation of switching x86 to use place-relative references for
the code, target and key members of struct jump_entry, replace direct
references to the struct members with invocations of the new accessors.
This will allow us to make the switch by modifying the accessors only.
This incorporates a cleanup of __jump_label_transform() proposed by
Peter.

Add support for R_X86_64_PC64 relocations, which operate on 64-bit
quantities holding a relative symbol reference. Also remove the
definition of R_X86_64_NUM: given that it is currently unused, it
is unclear what the new value should be.
