Will Deacon fcfdfe30e3 locking/barriers: Introduce smp_cond_load_relaxed() and atomic_cond_read_relaxed()
Whilst we currently provide smp_cond_load_acquire() and
atomic_cond_read_acquire(), there are cases where the ACQUIRE semantics are
not required because of a subsequent fence or release operation once the
conditional loop has exited.

This patch adds relaxed versions of the conditional spinning primitives
to avoid unnecessary barrier overhead on architectures such as arm64.

Peter Zijlstra 726328d92a locking/spinlock, arch: Update and fix spin_unlock_wait() implementations
This patch updates/fixes all spin_unlock_wait() implementations.

The update is in semantics; where it previously was only a control
dependency, we now upgrade to a full load-acquire to match the
store-release from the spin_unlock() we waited on. This ensures that
when spin_unlock_wait() returns, we're guaranteed to observe the full
critical section we waited on.

This fixes a number of spin_unlock_wait() users that (not
unreasonably) rely on this.

I also fixed a number of ticket lock versions to only wait on the
current lock holder, instead of for a full unlock, as this is
sufficient.

Furthermore; again for ticket locks; I added an smp_rmb() in between
the initial ticket load and the spin loop testing the current value
because I could not convince myself the address dependency is
sufficient, esp. if the loads are of different sizes.

I'm more than happy to remove this smp_rmb() again if people are
certain the address dependency does indeed work as expected.

Note: PPC32 will be fixed independently

Peter Zijlstra 7cb45c0fe9 locking/barriers: Move smp_cond_load_acquire() to asm-generic/barrier.h
Since all asm/barrier.h should/must include asm-generic/barrier.h the
latter is a good place for generic infrastructure like this.

This also allows archs to override the new smp_acquire__after_ctrl_dep().

Michael S. Tsirkin 6a65d26385 asm-generic: implement virt_xxx memory barriers
Guests running within virtual machines might be affected by SMP effects even if
the guest itself is compiled without SMP support.  This is an artifact of
interfacing with an SMP host while running an UP kernel.  Using mandatory
barriers for this use-case would be possible but is often suboptimal.

In particular, virtio uses a bunch of confusing ifdefs to work around
this, while xen just uses the mandatory barriers.

To better handle this case, low-level virt_mb() etc macros are made available.
These are implemented trivially using the low-level __smp_xxx macros,
the purpose of these wrappers is to annotate those specific cases.

These have the same effect as smp_mb() etc when SMP is enabled, but generate
identical code for SMP and non-SMP systems. For example, virtual machine guests
should use virt_mb() rather than smp_mb() when synchronizing against a
(possibly SMP) host.

Michael S. Tsirkin a9e4252a9b asm-generic: add __smp_xxx wrappers
On !SMP, most architectures define their
barriers as compiler barriers.
On SMP, most need an actual barrier.

Make it possible to remove the code duplication for
!SMP by defining low-level __smp_xxx barriers
which do not depend on the value of SMP, then
use them from asm-generic conditionally.

Besides reducing code duplication, these low level APIs will also be
useful for virtualization, where a barrier is sometimes needed even if
!SMP since we might be talking to another kernel on the same SMP system.

Both virtio and Xen drivers will benefit.

The smp_xxx variants should use __smp_XXX ones or barrier() depending on
SMP, identically for all architectures.

We keep ifndef guards around them for now - once/if all
architectures are converted to use the generic
code, we'll be able to remove these.

Davidlohr Bueso 5a1b26d7c6 lcoking/barriers, arch: Use smp barriers in smp_store_release()
With commit b92b8b35a2 ("locking/arch: Rename set_mb() to smp_store_mb()")
it was made clear that the context of this call (and thus set_mb)
is strictly for CPU ordering, as opposed to IO. As such all archs
should use the smp variant of mb(), respecting the semantics and
saving a mandatory barrier on UP.

Alexander Duyck 1077fa36f2 arch: Add lightweight memory barriers dma_rmb() and dma_wmb()
There are a number of situations where the mandatory barriers rmb() and
wmb() are used to order memory/memory operations in the device drivers
and those barriers are much heavier than they actually need to be.  For
example in the case of PowerPC wmb() calls the heavy-weight sync
instruction when for coherent memory operations all that is really needed
is an lsync or eieio instruction.

This commit adds a coherent only version of the mandatory memory barriers
rmb() and wmb().  In most cases this should result in the barrier being the
same as the SMP barriers for the SMP case, however in some cases we use a
barrier that is somewhere in between rmb() and smp_rmb().  For example on
ARM the rmb barriers break down as follows:

  Barrier   Call     Explanation
  --------- -------- ----------------------------------
  rmb()     dsb()    Data synchronization barrier - system
  dma_rmb() dmb(osh) data memory barrier - outer sharable
  smp_rmb() dmb(ish) data memory barrier - inner sharable

These new barriers are not as safe as the standard rmb() and wmb().
Specifically they do not guarantee ordering between coherent and incoherent
memories.  The primary use case for these would be to enforce ordering of
reads and writes when accessing coherent memory that is shared between the
CPU and a device.

It may also be noted that there is no dma_mb().  Most architectures don't
provide a good mechanism for performing a coherent only full barrier without
resorting to the same mechanism used in mb().  As such there isn't much to
be gained in trying to define such a function.

Peter Zijlstra febdbfe8a9 arch: Prepare for smp_mb__{before,after}_atomic()
Since the smp_mb__{before,after}*() ops are fundamentally dependent on
how an arch can implement atomics it doesn't make sense to have 3
variants of them. They must all be the same.

Furthermore, the 3 variants suggest they're only valid for those 3
atomic ops, while we have many more where they could be applied.

So move away from
smp_mb__{before,after}_{atomic,clear}_{dec,inc,bit}() and reduce the
interface to just the two: smp_mb__{before,after}_atomic().

This patch prepares the way by introducing default implementations in
asm-generic/barrier.h that default to a full barrier and providing
__deprecated inlines for the previous 6 barriers if they're not
provided by the arch.

This should allow for a mostly painless transition (lots of deprecated
warns in the interim).

Peter Zijlstra 47933ad41a arch: Introduce smp_load_acquire(), smp_store_release()
A number of situations currently require the heavyweight smp_mb(),
even though there is no need to order prior stores against later
loads.  Many architectures have much cheaper ways to handle these
situations, but the Linux kernel currently has no portable way
to make use of them.

This commit therefore supplies smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() to remedy this situation.  The new
smp_load_acquire() primitive orders the specified load against
any subsequent reads or writes, while the new smp_store_release()
primitive orders the specifed store against any prior reads or
writes.  These primitives allow array-based circular FIFOs to be
implemented without an smp_mb(), and also allow a theoretical
hole in rcu_assign_pointer() to be closed at no additional
expense on most architectures.

In addition, the RCU experience transitioning from explicit
smp_read_barrier_depends() and smp_wmb() to rcu_dereference()
and rcu_assign_pointer(), respectively resulted in substantial
improvements in readability.  It therefore seems likely that
replacing other explicit barriers with smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() will provide similar benefits.  It appears
that roughly half of the explicit barriers in core kernel code
might be so replaced.

Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier
definitions and fills out the rest with defaults.

There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably
do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to
their unconventional nop() implementation.
