Linux Virtualization - Dec 2015 - [PATCH 00/34] arch: barrier cleanup + __smp_XXX barriers for virt

This is really trying to cleanup some virt code, as suggested by Peter, who
said
> You could of course go fix that instead of mutilating things into
> sort-of functional state.
This work is needed for virtio, so it's probably easiest to
merge it through my tree - is this fine by everyone?
Arnd, if you agree, could you ack this please?

Note to arch maintainers: please don't cherry-pick patches out of this
patchset
as it's been structured in this order to avoid breaking bisect.
Please send acks instead!

Sometimes, virtualization is weird. For example, virtio does this
(conceptually):

#ifdef CONFIG_SMP
                smp_mb();
#else
                mb();
#endif

Similarly, Xen calls mb() when it's not doing any MMIO at all.

Of course it's wrong in the sense that it's suboptimal. What we would
really
like is to have, on UP, exactly the same barrier as on SMP.  This is because a
UP guest can run on an SMP host.

But Linux doesn't provide this ability: if CONFIG_SMP is not defined is
optimizes most barriers out to a compiler barrier.

Consider for example x86: what we want is xchg (NOT mfence - there's no real
IO
going on here - just switching out of the VM - more like a function call
really) but if built without CONFIG_SMP smp_store_mb does not include this.

Virt in general is probably the only use-case, because this really is an
artifact of interfacing with an SMP host while running an UP kernel,
but since we have (at least) two users, it seems to make sense to
put these APIs in a central place.

In fact, smp_ barriers are stubs on !SMP, so they can be defined as follows:

arch/XXX/include/asm/barrier.h:

#define __smp_mb() DOSOMETHING

include/asm-generic/barrier.h:

#ifdef CONFIG_SMP
#define smp_mb() __smp_mb()
#else
#define smp_mb() barrier()
#endif

This has the benefit of cleaning out a bunch of duplicated
ifdefs on a bunch of architectures - this patchset brings
about a net reduction in LOC, compensated for by extra documentation :)

Then virt can use __smp_XXX when talking to an SMP host.

Touching all archs is a tad tedious, but its fairly straight forward.

The rest of the patchset is structured as follows:

-. Patch 1 documents the __smp APIs, and explains why they are
   useful for virt

-. Patches 2-7 makes sure barrier.h on ia64, powerpc, s390 and sparc
   includes asm-generic/barrier.h: this is safe because code there matches
   asm-generic/barrier.h almost verbatim.
   Minor code tweaks were required in a couple of places.
   Macros duplicated from asm-generic/barrier.h are dropped
   in the process.

   I compiled these arches before and after the changes,
   dumped the .text section (using objdump -O binary) and
   made sure that the object code is exactly identical
   before and after the change.


-. Patch 8 fixes up smp_store_mb in asm-generic/barrier.h:
   it should call smp_mb and not mb. Luckily only used
   in core kernel so we know no one misused it for an
   MMIO barrier (so far).
   This is the only patch that affects code behaviour
   outside virt, and that for !SMP only.
   Compile-tested on a bunch of architectures (x86
   hardware which I have is unaffected by this).
   It's very straightforward so I hope it's enough.
   Hoping for some acks on this architecture.

-. Patches 9-14 make sure barrier.h on all remaining
   architectures includes asm-generic/barrier.h:
   after the change in Patch 8, code there matches
   asm-generic/barrier.h almost verbatim.
   Macros duplicated from asm-generic/barrier.h are dropped
   in the process.

After all that preparatory work, we are getting to the actual change.

-. Patches 15 adds generic smp_XXX wrappers in asm-generic
   these select __smp_XXX or barrier() depending on CONFIG_SMP

-. Patches 16-28 change all architectures to
   define __smp_XXX macros; the generic code in asm-generic/barrier.h
   then defines smp_XXX macros

   I compiled the affected arches before and after the changes,
   dumped the .text section (using objdump -O binary) and
   made sure that the object code is exactly identical
   before and after the change.
   I couldn't fully build sh,tile,xtensa but I did this test
   kernel/rcu/tree.o kernel/sched/wait.o and
   kernel/futex.o and tested these instead.

Unfortunately, I don't have a metag cross-build toolset ready.
Hoping for some acks on this architecture.

Finally, the following patches put the __smp_XXX APIs to work for virt:

-. Patches 29-31 convert virtio and xen drivers to use the __smp_XXX APIs

   xen patches are untested
   virtio ones have been tested on x86

-. Patches 33-34 teach virtio to use
   __smp_load_acquire/__smp_store_release/__smp_store_mb
   This is what started all this work.

   tested on x86

The patchset has been in linux-next for a bit, so far without issues.

Allow architectures to override smp_store_release
and smp_load_acquire by guarding the defines
in asm-generic/barrier.h with ifndef directives.

This is in preparation to reusing asm-generic/barrier.h
on architectures which have their own definition
of these macros.

asm-generic/barrier.h defines a nop() macro.
To be able to use this header on ia64, we shouldn't
call local functions/variables nop().

There's one instance where this breaks on ia64:
rename the function to iosapic_nop to avoid the conflict.

asm-generic variant of smp_store_mb() calls mb() which is stronger
than implied by both the name and the documentation.

smp_store_mb is only used by core kernel code at the moment, so
we know no one mis-uses it for an MMIO barrier.
Make it call smp_mb consistently before some arch-specific
code uses it as such by mistake.

This is straightforward, but unfortunately untested: I don't have a metag
compiler.
I would appreciate an ack from someone with a metag compiler.

On !SMP, most architectures define their
barriers as compiler barriers.
On SMP, most need an actual barrier.

Make it possible to remove the code duplication for
!SMP by defining a low-level __smp_XXX barriers
which do not depend on the value of SMP, then
use them from asm-generic conditionally.

Besides reducing code duplication, these low level APIs will also be
useful for virtualization, where a barrier is sometimes needed even if
!SMP since we might be talking to another kernel on the same SMP system.

Both virtio and Xen drivers will benefit.

The smp_XXX variants should use __smp_XXX ones or barrier() depending on
SMP, identically for all architectures.

We keep ifndef guards around them for now - once all
architectures have been converted to use the generic
code, we'll be able to remove these.

This defines __smp_XXX barriers for metag,
for use by virtualization.

smp_XXX barriers are removed as they are
defined correctly by asm-generic/barriers.h

Note: as __smp_XX macros should not depend on CONFIG_SMP, they can not
use the existing fence() macro since that is defined differently between
SMP and !SMP.  For this reason, this patch introduces a wrapper
metag_fence() that doesn't depend on CONFIG_SMP.
fence() is then defined using that, depending on CONFIG_SMP.

This defines __smp_XXX barriers for mips,
for use by virtualization.

smp_XXX barriers are removed as they are
defined correctly by asm-generic/barriers.h

Note: the only exception is smp_mb__before_llsc which is mips-specific.
We define both the __smp_mb__before_llsc variant (for use in
asm/barriers.h) and smp_mb__before_llsc (for use elsewhere on this
architecture).

sh variant of smp_store_mb() calls xchg() on !SMP which is stronger than
implied by both the name and the documentation.

define __smp_store_mb instead: code in asm-generic/barrier.h
will then define smp_store_mb correctly depending on
CONFIG_SMP.

This reverts commit 9e1a27ea42691429e31f158cce6fc61bc79bb2e9.

While that commit optimizes !CONFIG_SMP, it mixes
up DMA and SMP concepts, making the code hard
to figure out.

A better way to optimize this is with the new __smp_XXX
barriers.

As a first step, go back to full rmb/wmb barriers
for !SMP.
We switch to __smp_XXX barriers in the next patch.

virtio ring uses smp_wmb on SMP and wmb on !SMP,
the reason for the later being that it might be
talking to another kernel on the same SMP machine.

This is exactly what __smp_XXX barriers do,
so switch to these instead of homegrown ifdef hacks.

For guests compiled with CONFIG_SMP, smp_wmb and smp_mb

This is straight-forward, but untested.
I can either merge this patchset through my tree if this is
acked, or defer this and merge the patchset first,
and xen bits through xen tree afterwards.

virtio ring entries have exactly the acquire/release
semantics:
	- reading used index acquires a ring entry from host
	- updating the available index releases it to host

Thus when using weak barriers (as most people do), __smp_load_acquire
and __smp_store_release will do exactly the right thing to synchronize
with the host.

In fact, QEMU already uses __atomic_thread_fence(__ATOMIC_ACQUIRE) and
__atomic_thread_fence(__ATOMIC_RELEASE);
Documentation/circular-buffers.txt suggests smp_load_acquire and
smp_store_release for head and tail updates.

Since we have to worry about strong barrier users,
let's add APIs to wrap these, and use in virtio_ring.c:
in case of the string barriers, we fall back on
rmb/wmb as previously.

It is tempting to use this in vhost as well,
this needs a bit more work to make acquire/release macros
work on __user pointers.

We need a full barrier after writing out event index, using
__smp_store_mb there seems better than open-coding.  As usual, we need a
wrapper to account for strong barriers.

It's tempting to use this in vhost as well, for that, we'll
need a variant of smp_store_mb that works on __user pointers.

The same patch is already in the tip tree scheduled for 4.5 as d5a73cadf3fd
("lcoking/barriers, arch: Use smp barriers in smp_store_release()").

I think you can drop your version.

I've looked over all patches now, and everything seems fine (I had one
small comment about a duplicate patch). It's a very nice cleanup, both
for using the asm-generic file, and for the virtualization users.

I find it a little bit irritating when I receive a patch directly
addressed to me to review, but I don't see the "00/34" cover
letter.

I want to see what this series is about, and what the motiviation
for this change is.

I'm also highly frustrated, in general, with mix-and-match CC: lists
for patch series.  Just put everyone relevant in the CC: for the
entire series.  That way I can easily inspect other parts of the
series to see infrastructure buildup, and examples of other
conversions or versions of the change.

Thanks.

If virt is doing things like interacting with descriptors that are
shared with a (potentially SMP) host, why don't we just annotate those
specific cases?

The other memory barriers in the kernel do not matter for SMP'ness
when build UP.

Using a bunch of per-arch ifdefs in virtio?
That's fundamentally what we have now.

But basically the rework reduces the LOC count in kernel anyway
by moving all ifdef CONFIG_SMP hacks into asm-generic.
So why not let virt benefit?

Or do you mean wrappers for __smp_XXX that explicitly
say they are for talking to host?
E.g. pv_mb() pv_rmb() etc.
That sounds very reasonable to me.

__smp_XXX things then become an implementation detail.
