      arm64/fpsimd: Don't disable softirq when touching FPSIMD/SVE state · 6dcdefcd
      Julien Grall authored
      When the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_KERNEL_MODE_NEON, some part of
      the kernel may be able to use FPSIMD/SVE. This is for instance the case
      for crypto code.
      
      Any use of FPSIMD/SVE in the kernel are clearly marked by using the
      function kernel_neon_{begin, end}. Furthermore, this can only be used
      when may_use_simd() returns true.
      
      The current implementation of may_use_simd() allows softirq to use
      FPSIMD/SVE unless it is currently in use (i.e kernel_neon_busy is true).
      When in use, softirqs usually fall back to a software method.
      
      At the moment, as a softirq may use FPSIMD/SVE, softirqs are disabled
      when touching the FPSIMD/SVE context. This has the drawback to disable
      all softirqs even if they are not using FPSIMD/SVE.
      
      Since a softirq is supposed to check may_use_simd() anyway before
      attempting to use FPSIMD/SVE, there is limited reason to keep softirq
      disabled when touching the FPSIMD/SVE context. Instead, we can simply
      disable preemption and mark the FPSIMD/SVE context as in use by setting
      CPU's fpsimd_context_busy flag.
      
      Two new helpers {get, put}_cpu_fpsimd_context are introduced to mark
      the area using FPSIMD/SVE context and they are used to replace
      local_bh_{disable, enable}. The functions kernel_neon_{begin, end} are
      also re-implemented to use the new helpers.
      
      Additionally, double-underscored versions of the helpers are provided to
      called when preemption is already disabled. These are only relevant on
      paths where irqs are disabled anyway, so they are not needed for
      correctness in the current code. Let's use them anyway though: this
      marks critical sections clearly and will help to avoid mistakes during
      future maintenance.
      
      The change has been benchmarked on Linux 5.1-rc4 with defconfig.

      arm64/fpsimd: Introduce fpsimd_save_and_flush_cpu_state() and use it · 54b8c7cb
      Julien Grall authored
      The only external user of fpsimd_save() and fpsimd_flush_cpu_state() is
      the KVM FPSIMD code.
      
      A following patch will introduce a mechanism to acquire owernship of the
      FPSIMD/SVE context for performing context management operations. Rather
      than having to export the new helpers to get/put the context, we can just
      introduce a new function to combine fpsimd_save() and
      fpsimd_flush_cpu_state().
      
      This has also the advantage to remove any external call of fpsimd_save()
      and fpsimd_flush_cpu_state(), so they can be turned static.
      
      Lastly, the new function can also be used in the PM notifier.

      arm64/fpsimd: Remove the prototype for sve_flush_cpu_state() · 6fa9b41f
      Julien Grall authored
      The function sve_flush_cpu_state() has been removed in commit 21cdd7fd
      ("KVM: arm64: Remove eager host SVE state saving").
      
      So remove the associated prototype in asm/fpsimd.h.

        mistyped the string "SPDX-License-Identifier". Given that people can
        not even type their own name all the time without mistakes, this was
        bound to happen, and odds are, we will have to add some type of check
        for this to checkpatch.pl to catch this happening in the future.
