This patch provides a basic defconfig for the RISC-V
architecture that enables enough kernel features to run a
basic Linux distribution on qemu's "virt" board for native
software development. Features include:
- serial console
- virtio block and network device support
- VFAT and ext2/3/4 filesystem support
- NFS client and NFS rootfs support
- an assortment of other kernel features required for
running systemd
It also enables a number of drivers for physical hardware
that target the "SiFive U500" SoC and the corresponding
development platform. These include:
- PCIe host controller support for the FPGA-based U500
development platform (PCIE_XILINX)
- USB host controller support (OHCI/EHCI/XHCI)
- USB HID (keyboard/mouse) support
- USB mass storage support (bulk and UAS)
- SATA support (AHCI)
- ethernet drivers (MACB for a SoC-internal MAC block, microsemi
ethernet phy, E1000E and R8169 for PCIe-connected external devices)
- DRM and framebuffer console support for PCIe-connected
Radeon graphics chips

This is code that probably should never have made it into the kernel in
the first place: it depends on a driver that hadn't been reviewed yet.
During the HVC_SBI_RISCV review process a better way of doing this was
suggested, but that means this code is defunct. It's compile-time
disabled in 4.15 because the driver isn't in, so I think it's safe to
just remove this for now.

Commit 0515e5999a ("bpf: introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT
program type") introduced the bpf_perf_event_data structure which
exports the pt_regs structure. This is OK for multiple architectures
but fail for s390 and arm64 which do not export pt_regs. Programs
using them, for example, the bpf selftest fail to compile on these
architectures.
For s390, exporting the pt_regs is not an option because s390 wants
to allow changes to it. For arm64, there is a user_pt_regs structure
that covers parts of the pt_regs structure for use by user space.
To solve the broken uapi for s390 and arm64, introduce an abstract
type for pt_regs and add an asm/bpf_perf_event.h file that concretes
the type. An asm-generic header file covers the architectures that
export pt_regs today.
The arch-specific enablement for s390 and arm64 follows in separate
commits.

Olaf said: Here's a short series of patches that produces a working
allmodconfig. Would be nice to see them go in so we can add build
coverage.
I've dropped patches 8 and 10 from the original set:
* [PATCH 08/10] (RISC-V: Set __ARCH_WANT_RENAMEAT to pick up generic
version) has a better fix that I've sent out for review, we don't want
renameat.
* [PATCH 10/10] (input: joystick: riscv has get_cycles) has already been
taken into Dmitry Torokhov's tree.
This merge contains the user-visible, ABI-breaking changes that we want
to make sure we have in Linux before our first release. Highlights
include:
* VDSO entries for clock_get/gettimeofday/getcpu have been added. These
are simple syscalls now, but we want to let glibc use them from the
start so we can make them faster later.
* A VDSO entry for instruction cache flushing has been added so
userspace can flush the instruction cache.
* The VDSO symbol versions for __vdso_cmpxchg{32,64} have been removed,
as those VDSO entries don't actually exist.

Despite RISC-V having a direct 'fence.i' instruction available to
userspace (which we can't trap!), that's not actually viable when
running on Linux because the kernel might schedule a process on another
hart. There is no way for userspace to handle this without invoking the
kernel (as it doesn't know the thread->hart mappings), so we've defined
a RISC-V specific system call to flush the instruction cache.
This patch adds both a system call and a VDSO entry. If possible, we'd
like to avoid having the system call be considered part of the
user-facing ABI and instead restrict that to the VDSO entry -- both just
in general to avoid having additional user-visible ABI to maintain, and
because we'd prefer that users just call the VDSO entry because there
might be a better way to do this in the future (ie, one that doesn't
require entering the kernel).

The RISC-V ISA allows for instruction caches that are not coherent WRT
stores, even on a single hart. As a result, we need to explicitly flush
the instruction cache whenever marking a dirty page as executable in
order to preserve the correct system behavior.
Local instruction caches aren't that scary (our implementations actually
flush the cache, but RISC-V is defined to allow higher-performance
implementations to exist), but RISC-V defines no way to perform an
instruction cache shootdown. When explicitly asked to do so we can
shoot down remote instruction caches via an IPI, but this is a bit on
the slow side.
Instead of requiring an IPI to all harts whenever marking a page as
executable, we simply flush the currently running harts. In order to
maintain correct behavior, we additionally mark every other hart as
needing a deferred instruction cache which will be taken before anything
runs on it.

This tag contains the core RISC-V Linux port, which has been through
nine rounds of review on various mailing lists. The port is not
complete: there's some cleanup patches moving through the review
process, a whole bunch of drivers that need some work, and a lot of
feature additions that will be needed.
The patches contained in this tag have been through nine rounds of
review on the various mailing lists. I have some outstanding cleanup
patches, but since there's been so much review on these patches I
thought it would be best to submit them as-is and then submit explicit
cleanup patches so everyone can review them. This first patch set is
big enough that it's a bit of a pain to constantly rewrite, and it's
caused a few headaches with various contributors.
The port is definately a work in progress. While what's there builds
and boots with 4.14, it's a bit hard to actually see anything happen
because there are no device drivers yet. I maintain a staging branch
that contains all the device drivers and cleanup that actually works,
but those patches won't all be ready for a while. I'd like to get what
we currently have into your tree so everyone can start working from a
single base -- of particular importance is allowing the glibc
upstreaming process to proceed so we can sort out any possibly lingering
user-visible ABI problems we might have.
Copied below is the ChangeLog that contains the history of this patch
set:
(v9) As per suggestions on our v8 patch set, I've split the core architecture code
out from our drivers and would like to submit this patch set to be included
into linux-next, with the goal being to be merged in during the next merge
window. This patch set is based on 4.14-rc2, but if it's better to have it
based on something else then I can change it around.
This patch set contains just the core arch code for RISC-V, so while it builds
an nominally boots, you can't print or take an interrupt so it's not that
useful. If you're looking to actually boot a system it would probably be
better to use the full patch set listed below.
We've collected a handful of tags from reviewers, and the remainder of the
patch set only got minimal feedback last time. Here's what changed:
* We now use the device tree to initialize the timer driver so it's less
tighly coupled with the arch port.
* I cleaned up the defconfigs -- there's actually now just one, and it's
empty. For now I think we're OK with what the kernel sets as defaults, but
I anticipate we'll begin to expand this as people start to use the port
more.
* The VDSO symbols version is sane.
* We WFI while spinning in the boot loop.
* A handful of comments have been added.
While there are still a handful of FIXMEs in this patch set, we've started to
get enough interest from various users and contributors that maintaining an out
of tree patch set is starting to become a big burden. Hopefully the patches
are good enough to merge now, which will at least get everyone working in a
more reasonable manner as we clean up the remaining issues.
This patch set is also availiable on github
https://github.com/riscv/riscv-linux/tree/riscv-for-submission-v9-arch
as is the entire patch set necessary to get a more functional RISC-V system up
and running, including a handful of patches that aren't ready for upstream yet.
https://github.com/riscv/riscv-linux/tree/riscv-for-submission-v9
Hopefully I've managed to get everyone's feedback
Here's the change highlights from the whole patch set:
(v8) I know it may not be the ideal time to submit a patch set right now, as
it's the middle of the merge window, but things have calmed down quite a bit in
the last month so I thought it would be good to get everyone on the same page.
There's been a handful of changes since the last patch set, but most of them
are fairly minor:
* We changed PAGE_OFFSET to allowing mapping more physical memory on 64-bit
systems. This is user configurable, as it triggers a different code model
that generates slightly less efficient code.
* The device tree binding documentation is back, I'd managed to lose it at some
point.
* We now pass the atomic64 test suite. The SBI timer driver has been
* refactored.
(v7) It's been a while since my last patch set, but the changes han been fairly
minimal:
* The PCI cleanup patches have been dropped, we'll do them as a separate patch
set later.
* We've the Kconfig entries from CONFIG_ISA_* to CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_*, to make
grep easier.
* There have been a handful of memory model related tweaks in I/O land,
particularly relating the PCI and the upcoming platform specification.
There are significant comments in the relevant files. This is still a WIP,
but I think we're close to getting as good as we're going to get until we
end up with some more specifications.
(v6) As it's been only a day since the v5 patch set, the changes are pretty
minimal:
* The patch set is now based on linux-next/master, which I believe is a better
base now that we're getting closer to upstream.
* EARLY_PRINTK is no longer an option. Since the SBI console is reasonable,
there's no penalty to enabling it (and thus no benefit to disabling it).
* The mmap syscalls were refactored a bit.
(v5) Things have really started to calm down, so this is fairly similar to the
v4 patch set. The most interesting changes include:
* We've moved back to a single patch set.
* SMP support has been fixed, I was accidentally running on a non-SMP
configuration. There were various mistakes all over the tree as a result of
this.
* The cmpxchg syscalls have been removed, as they were deemed a bad idea. As
a result, RISC-V Linux systems mandate the A extension. The corresponding
Kconfig entry to enable builds on non-A systems has been removed.
* A few more atomic fixes: mostly fence changes, but those resulted in a
handful of additional macros that were no longer necessary.
* riscv_early_sie has been removed.
(v4) There have only been a few changes since the v3 patch set:
* The cmpxchg64 syscall is no longer enabled on 32-bit systems. It's not
possible to provide this on SMP systems, and it's not necessary as glibc
knows not to call it.
* We provide a ELF_HWCAP so users can determine the ISA of the machine the
kernel is running on.
* The multi-line comments are in a better form.
* There were a handful of headers that could be replaced with the asm-generic
versions, and a few unnecessary definitions.
* We no longer use printk, but instead use pr_*.
* A few Kconfig and defconfig entries have been cleaned up.
(v3) A highlight of the changes since the v2 patch set includes:
* We've split out all our drivers into separate patch sets, which I've already
sent out to the relevant maintainers. I haven't included those patches in
this patch set, but some of them are necessary to build our port. A git
tree that contains all our patch sets merged together lives at
<https://github.com/riscv/riscv-linux/tree/riscv-for-submission-v3>.
* The patch set is now split up differently: rather than being split per
directory it is split per topic. Hopefully this will make it easier to
review the port on the mailing list. The split is a bit rough, so you
probably still want to look at the patch set as a whole.
* atomic.h has been completely rewritten and is hopefully now correct. I've
attempted to sanitize the various other memory model related code as well,
and I think it should all be sane now aside from a handful of FIXMEs
commented in the code.
* We've changed the cmpexchg syscall to always exist and to not be
multiplexed. There is also a VDSO entry for compare and exchange, which
allows kernels with the A extension to execute user code without the A
extension reasonably fast.
* Our user-visible register state now contains enough space for the Q
extension for 128-bit floating point, as well as a few words to allow
extensibility to future ISA extensions like the eventual V extension for
vectors.
* A handful of driver cleanups, but these have been split into separate patch
sets now so I won't duplicate them here.
(v2) A highlight of the changes since the v1 patch set includes:
* We've split out our drivers into the right places, which means now there's
a lot more patches. I'll be submitting these patches to various subsystem
maintainers and including them in any future RISC-V patch sets until
they've been merged.
* The SBI console driver has been completely rewritten to use the HVC helpers
and is now significantly smaller.
* We've begun to use weaker barriers as opposed to just the big "fence".
There's still some work to do here, specifically:
- We need fences in the relaxed MMIO functions.
- The non-relaxed MMIO functions are missing R/W bits on their fences.
- Many AMOs need the aq and rl bits set.
* We now have thread_info in task_struct. As a result, sscratch now contains
TP instead of SP. This was necessary because thread_info is no longer on
the stack.
* A few shared routines have been added that we use instead of creating
another arch copy.

- We no longer use printk, but instead use pr_*.
- A few Kconfig and defconfig entries have been cleaned up.
(v3) A highlight of the changes since the v2 patch set includes:
- We've split out all our drivers into separate patch sets,
which I've already sent out to the relevant maintainers. I
haven't included those patches in this patch set, but some of
them are necessary to build our port.
- The patch set is now split up differently: rather than being
split per directory it is split per topic. Hopefully this
will make it easier to review the port on the mailing list.
The split is a bit rough, so you probably still want to look
at the patch set as a whole.
- atomic.h has been completely rewritten and is hopefully now
correct. I've attempted to sanitize the various other memory
model related code as well, and I think it should all be sane
now aside from a handful of FIXMEs commented in the code.
- We've changed the cmpexchg syscall to always exist and to not
be multiplexed. There is also a VDSO entry for compare and
exchange, which allows kernels with the A extension to
execute user code without the A extension reasonably fast.
- Our user-visible register state now contains enough space for
the Q extension for 128-bit floating point, as well as a few
words to allow extensibility to future ISA extensions like
the eventual V extension for vectors.
- A handful of driver cleanups, but these have been split into
separate patch sets now so I won't duplicate them here.
(v2) A highlight of the changes since the v1 patch set includes:
- We've split out our drivers into the right places, which
means now there's a lot more patches. I'll be submitting
these patches to various subsystem maintainers and including
them in any future RISC-V patch sets until they've been
merged.
- The SBI console driver has been completely rewritten to use
the HVC helpers and is now significantly smaller.
- We've begun to use weaker barriers as opposed to just the big
"fence". There's still some work to do here, specifically:
- We need fences in the relaxed MMIO functions.
- The non-relaxed MMIO functions are missing R/W bits on their fences.
- Many AMOs need the aq and rl bits set.
- We now have thread_info in task_struct. As a result, sscratch
now contains TP instead of SP. This was necessary because
thread_info is no longer on the stack.
- A few shared routines have been added that we use instead of
creating another arch copy"

This patch contains all the build infrastructure that actually enables
the RISC-V port. This includes Makefiles, linker scripts, and Kconfig
files. It also contains the only top-level change, which adds RISC-V to
the list of architectures that need a sed run to produce the ARCH
variable when building locally.

This patch contains code that is in some way visible to the user:
including via system calls, the VDSO, module loading and signal
handling. It also contains some generic code that is ABI visible.

This patch contains code that interfaces with devices that are mandated
by the RISC-V supervisor specification and that don't have explicit
drivers anywhere else in the tree. This includes the staticly defined
interrupts, the CSR-mapped timer, and virtualized SBI devices.

This patch contains code that is more specific to the RISC-V ISA than it
is to Linux. It contains string and math operations, C wrappers for
various assembly instructions, stack walking code, and uaccess.

This contains all the code that directly interfaces with the RISC-V
memory model. While this code corforms to the current RISC-V ISA
specifications (user 2.2 and priv 1.10), the memory model is somewhat
underspecified in those documents. There is a working group that hopes
to produce a formal memory model by the end of the year, but my
understanding is that the basic definitions we're relying on here won't
change significantly.
