v2 cover x86: Rewrite 64-bit syscall code

This is kind of like the 32-bit and compat code, except that I preserved the fast path this time. I was unable to measure any significant performance change on my laptop in the fast path.

Changes from v1:
- Various tidying up.
- Remove duplicate tables (folded in, so the fastpath table isn't in this set).
- Rebased to 4.5-rc1
- Remove enter_from_user_mode stuff -- let's get the basics in first.

Andy Lutomirski (10):
selftests/x86: Extend Makefile to allow 64-bit-only tests selftests/x86: Add check_initial_reg_state
x86/syscalls: Refactor syscalltbl.sh
x86/syscalls: Remove __SYSCALL_COMMON and __SYSCALL_X32 x86/syscalls: Move compat syscall entry handling into syscalltbl.sh x86/syscalls: Add syscall entry qualifiers
x86/entry/64: Always run ptregs-using syscalls on the slow path x86/entry/64: Call all native slow-path syscalls with full pt-regs x86/entry/64: Stop using int_ret_from_sys_call in ret_from_fork x86/entry/64: Migrate the 64-bit syscall slow path to C

PATCH v2 1/10 selftests/x86: Extend Makefile to allow 64-bit-only tests

Previously the Makefile supported 32-bit-only tests and tests that were 32-bit and 64-bit. This adds the support for tests that are only built as 64-bit binaries.

There aren't any yet, but there might be a few some day.

PATCH v2 2/10 selftests/x86: Add check_initial_reg_state

In reply to Andy Lutomirski

This checks that ELF binaries are started with an appropriately blank register state.

(There's currently a nasty special case in the entry asm to arrange
for this. I'm planning on removing the special case, and this will help make sure I don't break it.)

No combinatorial explosion, please. We could use __SYSCALL(nr, sym, abi, qual), though.

Mind fixing it, so that we get back the arch-neutral property?

I need some guidance as to the goal to do a good job.

In the version in -tip, I have this thing:

if [ "$abi" == "64" -a -n "$compat" ]; then
echo "a compat entry for a 64-bit syscall makes no sense" >&2 exit 1
fi

Moving that outside the script will either be impossible or an exercise in really awful C preprocessor hacks. We could keep that under the theory that it's arch-neutral.

It might be nice to add a similar warning that a compat entry for an x32 syscall makes so sense. That's a little less arch-neutral, although it wouldn't be actively harmful on any architecture, since "x32" wouldn't occur in the first place.

Other than that, I could add a little header called syscall_abi_mapping.h containing something like:

#ifndef __SYSCALL_ABI_MAPPING_H
#define __SYSCALL_ABI_MAPPING_H

#ifdef CONFIG_X86_32

/* Only I386 entries should ever be compiled into 32-bit kernels. */ #define __SYSCALL_ABI_I386(nr, entry, qual, compat, compat_qual) __SYSCALL_I386(nr, entry, qual)

#else

/* I386 entries on 64-bit kernels use the compat entry point. */ #define __SYSCALL_ABI_I386(nr, entry, qual, compat, compat_qual) __SYSCALL_I386(nr, compat, compat_qual)

#define __SYSCALL_ABI_common(nr, entry, compat, qual) #define __SYSCALL_ABI_64(nr, entry, qual, compat, compat_qual) __SYSCALL_64(nr, entry, qual)
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_X32
#define __SYSCALL_ABI_x32(nr, entry, qual, compat, compat_qual) __SYSCALL_64(nr, entry, qual)
#else
#define __SYSCALL_ABI_x32(nr, entry, qual, compat, compat_qual) __SYSCALL_64(nr, entry, qual)
#endif

#endif

#endif

and teach syscalltbl.sh to emit #include <asm/syscall_abi_mapping.h> at the beginning of syscalls_32.h and syscalls_64.h and to reference those macros.

hpa, would that meet your requirements?

IMO this is quite a bit messier than the code in -tip, and I'm honestly not convinced it's an improvement.

No combinatorial explosion, please. We could use __SYSCALL(nr, sym, abi, qual), though.

Mind fixing it, so that we get back the arch-neutral property?

I need some guidance as to the goal to do a good job.

In the version in -tip, I have this thing:

if [ "$abi" == "64" -a -n "$compat" ]; then
echo "a compat entry for a 64-bit syscall makes no sense" >&2 exit 1
fi

x86/syscalls: Remove __SYSCALL_COMMON and __SYSCALL_X32

The common/64/x32 distinction has no effect other than determining which kernels actually support the syscall. Move the logic into syscalltbl.sh.

that other architectures can use it, and so I would really prefer for it to stay arch-neutral and encourage other arches to use it, too.

We could use a qualifier (ie. /x32 or /x32ptregs) instead.

PATCH v2 5/10 x86/syscalls: Move compat syscall entry handling into syscalltbl.sh

In reply to Andy Lutomirski

Rather than duplicating the compat entry handling in all consumers of syscalls_BITS.h, handle it directly in syscalltbl.sh. Now we generate entries in syscalls_32.h like:

__SYSCALL_I386(5, sys_open)
__SYSCALL_I386(5, compat_sys_open)

and all of its consumers implicitly get the right entry point.

PATCH v2 6/10 x86/syscalls: Add syscall entry qualifiers

In reply to Andy Lutomirski

This will let us specify something like sys_xyz/foo instead of sys_xyz in the syscall table, where the foo conveys some information to the C code.

The intent is to allow things like sys_execve/ptregs to indicate that sys_execve touches pt_regs.

PATCH v2 7/10 x86/entry/64: Always run ptregs-using syscalls on the slow path

In reply to Andy Lutomirski

64-bit syscalls currently have an optimization in which they are called with partial pt_regs. A small handful require full pt_regs.

In the 32-bit and compat cases, I cleaned this up by forcing full pt_regs for all syscalls. The performance hit doesn't really matter.

I want to clean up the 64-bit case as well, but I don't want to hurt fast path performance. To do that, I want to force the syscalls that use pt_regs onto the slow path. This will enable us to make slow path syscalls be real ABI-compliant C functions.

Use the new syscall entry qualification machinery for this. stub_clone is now stub_clone/ptregs.

The next patch will eliminate the stubs, and we'll just have sys_clone/ptregs.

As of this patch, two-phase entry tracing is no longer used. It has served its purpose (namely a huge speedup on some workloads prior to more general opportunistic SYSRET support), and once the dust settles I'll send patches to back it out.

The implementation is heavily based on a patch from Brian Gerst [1].

x86/entry/64: Always run ptregs-using syscalls on the slow path

64-bit syscalls currently have an optimization in which they are called with partial pt_regs. A small handful require full pt_regs.

In the 32-bit and compat cases, I cleaned this up by forcing full pt_regs for all syscalls. The performance hit doesn't really matter as the affected system calls are fundamentally heavy and this is the 32-bit compat case.

I want to clean up the 64-bit case as well, but I don't want to hurt fast path performance. To do that, I want to force the syscalls that use pt_regs onto the slow path. This will enable us to make slow path syscalls be real ABI-compliant C functions.

Use the new syscall entry qualification machinery for this. 'stub_clone' is now 'stub_clone/ptregs'.

The next patch will eliminate the stubs, and we'll just have 'sys_clone/ptregs'.

As of this patch, two-phase entry tracing is no longer used. It has served its purpose (namely a huge speedup on some workloads prior to more general opportunistic SYSRET support), and once the dust settles I'll send patches to back it out.

The implementation is heavily based on a patch from Brian Gerst:

PATCH v2 8/10 x86/entry/64: Call all native slow-path syscalls with full pt-regs

In reply to Andy Lutomirski

This removes all of the remaining asm syscall stubs except for stub_ptregs_64. Entries in the main syscall table are now all callable from C.

The resulting asm is every bit as ridiculous as it looks. The next few patches will clean it up. This patch is here to let reviewers rest their brains and for bisection.

x86/entry/64: Call all native slow-path syscalls with full pt-regs

This removes all of the remaining asm syscall stubs except for stub_ptregs_64. Entries in the main syscall table are now all callable from C.

The resulting asm is every bit as ridiculous as it looks. The next few patches will clean it up. This patch is here to let reviewers rest their brains and for bisection.

PATCH v2 9/10 x86/entry/64: Stop using int_ret_from_sys_call in ret_from_fork

In reply to Andy Lutomirski

ret_from_fork is now open-coded and is no longer tangled up with the syscall code. This isn't so bad -- this adds very little code, and IMO the result is much easier to understand.

PATCH v2 10/10 x86/entry/64: Migrate the 64-bit syscall slow path to C

In reply to Andy Lutomirski

This is more complicated than the 32-bit and compat cases because it preserves an asm fast path for the case where the callee-saved regs aren't needed in pt_regs and no entry or exit work needs to be done.

This appears to slow down fastpath syscalls by no more than one cycle on my Skylake laptop.
