v2 cover clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Add basic ARMv8.6 support

This is v2 of the series enabling ARMv8.6 support for timer subsystem, and was prompted by a discussion with Oliver around the fact that an ARMv8.6 implementation must have a 1GHz counter, which leads to a number of things to break in the timer code:

- the counter rollover can come pretty quickly as we only advertise a 56bit counter,
- the maximum timer delta can be remarkably small, as we use the countdown interface which is limited to 32bit...

Thankfully, there is a way out: we can compute the minimal width of the counter based on the guarantees that the architecture gives us, and we can use the 64bit comparator interface instead of the countdown to program the timer.

Finally, we start making use of the ARMv8.6 ECV features by switching accesses to the counters to a self-synchronising register, removing the need for an ISB. Hopefully, implementations will *not* just stick an invisible ISB there...

A side effect of the switch to CVAL is that XGene-1 breaks. I have added a workaround to keep it alive.

I have added Oliver's original patch[0] to the series and tweaked a couple of things. Blame me if I broke anything.

The whole things has been tested on Juno (sysreg + MMIO timers), XGene-1 (broken sysreg timers), FVP (FEAT_ECV, CNT*CTSS_EL0).

* From v1:
- New patch adding a bunch of BUILD_BUG()s for register accesses we don't expect. This makes subsequent patches much simpler.
- New patch moving the ISBs for workaround in a way that makes more sense for the self-synchronising accessors.
- Rework the XGene-1 workaround to rely solely on MIDR.
- Split the CNTVCTSS trap handling in its own patch.
- Rebased on 5.15-rc2
- Collected RBs, with thanks.

PATCH v2 1/16 clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Add build-time guards for unhandled register accesses

As we are about to change the registers that are used by the driver, start by adding build-time checks to ensure that we always handle all registers and access modes.

PATCH v2 2/16 clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Drop CNT*_TVAL read accessors

In reply to Marc Zyngier

The arch timer driver never reads the various TVAL registers, only writes to them. It is thus pointless to provide accessors for them and to implement errata workarounds.

Drop these read-side accessors, and add a couple of BUG() statements for the time being. These statements will be removed further down the line.

PATCH v2 3/16 clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Extend write side of timer register accessors to u64

In reply to Marc Zyngier

The various accessors for the timer sysreg and MMIO registers are currently hardwired to 32bit. However, we are about to introduce the use of the CVAL registers, which require a 64bit access.

Upgrade the write side of the accessors to take a 64bit value (the read side is left untouched as we don't plan to ever read back any of these registers).

No functional change expected.

PATCH v2 4/16 clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Move system register timer programming over to CVAL

In reply to Marc Zyngier

In order to cope better with high frequency counters, move the programming of the timers from the countdown timer (TVAL) over to the comparator (CVAL).

The programming model is slightly different, as we now need to read the current counter value to have an absolute deadline instead of a relative one.

There is a small overhead to this change, which we will address in the following patches.

PATCH v2 5/16 clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Move drop _tval from erratum function names

In reply to Marc Zyngier

The '_tval' name in the erratum handling function names doesn't make much sense anymore (and they were using CVAL the first place).

Drop the _tval tag.

PATCH v2 6/16 clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Fix MMIO base address vs callback ordering issue

In reply to Marc Zyngier

The MMIO timer base address gets published after we have registered the callbacks and the interrupt handler, which is... a bit dangerous.

Fix this by moving the base address publication to the point where we register the timer, and expose a pointer to the timer structure itself rather than a naked value.

PATCH v2 7/16 clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Move MMIO timer programming over to CVAL

In reply to Marc Zyngier

Similarily to the sysreg-based timer, move the MMIO over to using the CVAL registers instead of TVAL. Note that there is no warranty that the 64bit MMIO access will be atomic, but the timer is always disabled at the point where we program CVAL.

PATCH v2 9/16 clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Work around broken CVAL implementations

In reply to Marc Zyngier

The Applied Micro XGene-1 SoC has a busted implementation of the CVAL register: it looks like it is based on TVAL instead of the other way around. The net effect of this implementation blunder is that the maximum deadline you can program in the timer is 32bit wide.

Use a MIDR check to notice the broken CPU, and reduce the width of the timer to 32bit.

PATCH v2 11/16 clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Drop unnecessary ISB on CVAL programming

In reply to Marc Zyngier

Switching from TVAL to CVAL has a small drawback: we need an ISB before reading the counter. We cannot get rid of it, but we can instead remove the one that comes just after writing to CVAL.

This reduces the number of ISBs from 3 to 2 when programming the timer.

PATCH v2 12/16 clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Fix masking for high freq counters

In reply to Marc Zyngier

From: Oliver Upton <[email protected]>

Unfortunately, the architecture provides no means to determine the bit width of the system counter. However, we do know the following from the specification:

- the system counter is at least 56 bits wide
- Roll-over time of not less than 40 years

To date, the arch timer driver has depended on the first property, assuming any system counter to be 56 bits wide and masking off the rest. However, combining a narrow clocksource mask with a high frequency counter could result in prematurely wrapping the system counter by a significant margin. For example, a 56 bit wide, 1GHz system counter would wrap in a mere 2.28 years!

This is a problem for two reasons: v8.6+ implementations are required to provide a 64 bit, 1GHz system counter. Furthermore, before v8.6, implementers may select a counter frequency of their choosing.

Fix the issue by deriving a valid clock mask based on the second property from above. Set the floor at 56 bits, since we know no system counter is narrower than that.

[maz: fixed width computation not to lose the last bit, added
max delta generation for the timer]

PATCH v2 13/16 clocksource/arch_arm_timer: Move workaround synchronisation around

In reply to Marc Zyngier

We currently handle synchronisation when workarounds are enabled by having an ISB in the __arch_counter_get_cnt?ct_stable() helpers.

WHile this works, this prevents us from relaxing this synchronisation.

Instead, move it closer to the point where the synchronisation is actually needed. Further patches will subsequently relax this.

Could we add a HWCAP for this and change the field to FTR_VISIBLE, please? I know most users of the counter are indirected via the vDSO, but there are some users out there using the counter directly and it would save them having to probe via SIGILL if there was a hwcap available.

Cheers,

Will

Fair enough, I'll add that.

The problem of the vdso remains though, and is by far the most common user of the feature. Any idea on how to handle it? Patching the vdso is ugly, and I'd rather avoid it.

I briefly looked at using ifunc, but it is likely that the indirection would add an extra cost. Are we OK with that?

The vDSO is still miles faster than a system call, so I'd be inclined to leave it as-is for the time being. I suspect that use-cases which can't stomach the cost of the ISB can't stomach the cost of the vDSO at all.

PATCH v2 15/16 arm64: Add CNT{P,V}CTSS_EL0 alternatives to cnt{p,v}ct_el0

In reply to Marc Zyngier

CNTPCTSS_EL0 and CNTVCTSS_EL0 are alternatives to the usual CNTPCT_EL0 and CNTVCT_EL0 that do not require a previous ISB to be synchronised (SS stands for Self-Synchronising).

Use the ARM64_HAS_ECV capability to control alternative sequences that switch to these low(er)-cost primitives. Note that the counter access in the VDSO is for now left alone until we decide whether we want to allow this.

PATCH v2 16/16 arm64: Add handling of CNTVCTSS traps

Since CNTVCTSS obey the same control bits as CNTVCT, add the necessary decoding to the hook table. Note that there is no known user of this at the moment.
