From c51f92693c35c141cf7d9b7e2fcbb81128324eb4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ard Biesheuvel Date: Mon, 24 Feb 2014 15:26:27 +0100 Subject: arm64: add abstractions for FPSIMD state manipulation There are two tacit assumptions in the FPSIMD handling code that will no longer hold after the next patch that optimizes away some FPSIMD state restores: . the FPSIMD registers of this CPU contain the userland FPSIMD state of task 'current'; . when switching to a task, its FPSIMD state will always be restored from memory. This patch adds the following functions to abstract away from straight FPSIMD register file saves and restores: - fpsimd_preserve_current_state -> ensure current's FPSIMD state is saved - fpsimd_update_current_state -> replace current's FPSIMD state Where necessary, the signal handling and fork code are updated to use the above wrappers instead of poking into the FPSIMD registers directly.

Similarly, repeated calls to kernel_neon_begin() and kernel_neon_end() will preserve and restore the FPSIMD state every time. This patch defers the FPSIMD state restore to the last possible moment, i.e., right before the task returns to userland. If a task does not return to userland at all (for any reason), the existing FPSIMD state is preserved and may be reused by the owning task if it gets scheduled in again on the same CPU. This patch adds two more functions to abstract away from straight FPSIMD register file saves and restores: - fpsimd_restore_current_state -> ensure current's FPSIMD state is loaded - fpsimd_flush_task_state -> invalidate live copies of a task's FPSIMD state Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel --- arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S | 2 +- arch/arm64/kernel/fpsimd.c | 144 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- arch/arm64/kernel/ptrace.c | 2 + arch/arm64/kernel/signal.c | 4 ++ 4 files changed, 135 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) (limited to 'arch/arm64/kernel') diff --git a/arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S b/arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S index 39ac630d83d..80464e2fb1a 100644 --- a/arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S +++ b/arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S @@ -576,7 +576,7 @@ fast_work_pending: str x0, [sp, #S_X0] // returned x0 work_pending: tbnz x1, #TIF_NEED_RESCHED, work_resched - /* TIF_SIGPENDING or TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME case */ + /* TIF_SIGPENDING, TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME or TIF_FOREIGN_FPSTATE case */ ldr x2, [sp, #S_PSTATE] mov x0, sp // 'regs' tst x2, #PSR_MODE_MASK // user mode regs? diff --git a/arch/arm64/kernel/fpsimd.c b/arch/arm64/kernel/fpsimd.c index 8a97163debc..5ae89303c3a 100644 --- a/arch/arm64/kernel/fpsimd.c +++ b/arch/arm64/kernel/fpsimd.c @@ -34,6 +34,60 @@ #define FPEXC_IXF (1 << 4) #define FPEXC_IDF (1 << 7) +/* + * In order to reduce the number of times the FPSIMD state is needlessly saved + * and restored, we need to keep track of two things: + * (a) for each task, we need to remember which CPU was the last one to have + * the task's FPSIMD state loaded into its FPSIMD registers; + * (b) for each CPU, we need to remember which task's userland FPSIMD state has + * been loaded into its FPSIMD registers most recently, or whether it has + * been used to perform kernel mode NEON in the meantime. + * + * For (a), we add a 'cpu' field to struct fpsimd_state, which gets updated to + * the id of the current CPU everytime the state is loaded onto a CPU.

To address the case where only a couple of registers are needed, kernel_neon_begin_partial(u32) is introduced which takes as a parameter the number of bottom 'n' NEON q-registers required. To mark the end of such a partial section, the regular kernel_neon_end() should be used.
