[PATCH v4 0/5] pid: Use helper task_is_in_root_ns()

by Leo Yan

The helper task_is_in_root_ns() has been merged into the mainline kernel (thanks Jakub Kicinski for merging the patches [1]). On the other hand, there have 5 patches were left out in the patch series v2 [2], this patch series is to resend these 5 patches so that sub-module maintainers could pick patches without concerning dependency issue. This patch series can be cleanly applied on the mainline kernel with latest commit dcb85f85fa6f ("gcc-plugins/stackleak: Use noinstr in favor of notrace"). [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220126050427.605628-1-leo.yan@linaro.org/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20211208083320.472503-1-leo.yan@linaro.org/ Changes from v2: * Added review and ack tags. * Dropped two merged patches and resend the left 5 patches. Changes from v1: * Renamed helper function from task_is_in_root_ns() to task_is_in_init_pid_ns(). (Leon Romanovsky) * Improved patches' commit logs for more neat.

[PATCH 00/15] Make ETM register accesses consistent with sysreg.h

by James Clark

While working on the branch broadcast change I found it difficult to search for usages of registers and fields because of the magic numbers. I also found it difficult to decide which style to make new code in because of the varying ones used. There was also a code review comment from Suzuki about replacing a magic number so I'm proposing to refactor as many as possible into the style used in sysreg.h which seems to be the new and most consistently used method. For example it was used in the SPE and TRBE drivers. This isn't an exhaustive refactor, but it does get all the basic accesses. There are a couple of odd other cases remaining, mainly in the ETM3x code. These can be found by searching for BMVAL. There is one compromise to ensure this is a complete no-op and has binary equivalence with the old version. I needed to keep two register accesses here, where something like etmidr0 & TRCIDR0_INSTP0_LOAD_STORE would be better: - if (BMVAL(etmidr0, 1, 1) && BMVAL(etmidr0, 2, 2)) - drvdata->instrp0 = true; - else - drvdata->instrp0 = false; - + drvdata->instrp0 = !!((REG_VAL(etmidr0, TRCIDR0_INSTP0) & 0b01) && + (REG_VAL(etmidr0, TRCIDR0_INSTP0) & 0b10)); I think this change fixes quite a few issues like: * Some registers aren't referred to by name but a different variable name. For example eventctrl1 in mode_store() where TRCEVENTCTL1R isn't mentioned in that function. * Some bits aren't referred to by the name in the manual, even in the comments. For example TRCCONFIGR.RS only occurs as /* bit[12], Return stack enable bit */. * Some bits in the same register are referred to either as magic numbers or the publicly exported config macros, neiher of which are consistent with any other register accesses. For example config->cfg |= BIT(11); config->cfg |= BIT(ETM4_CFG_BIT_CTXTID); * Some fields are already partially referred to in the sysfs.h style way: TRCVICTLR_EXLEVEL_... etc. But other fields in the same register are not * Some fields are magic numbers that are repeated many times in different functions. For example vinst_ctrl |= BIT(9) * Some fields were referred to by magic numbers, even when there were already existing #defines. For example ETMTECR1_INC_EXC * Another benefit is that the #defines could be automatically checked against the reference manual because the style is uniform. Testing ======= To test this I used gcc-11 which doesn't have a quirk about changing register widths in some cases (as in w -> x). I also used elf_diff which showed me exactly where I'd made a mistake when I did (https://github.com/noseglasses/elf_diff). But now that there is no difference, objdump and diff also work for validation. make CC=gcc-11 modules diff <(objdump -d drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x.ko) <(objdump -d ../linux2/drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x.ko) diff <(objdump -d drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight.ko) <(objdump -d ../linux2/drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight.ko) And for ETM3x (doesn't need gcc 11): make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- modules diff <(objdump -d drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm3x.ko) <(objdump -d ../linux2/drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm3x.ko) When there are no differences, the diff output looks like this with only the filename listed: < drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x.ko: file format elf64-littleaarch64 --- > ../linux2/drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x.ko: file format elf64-littleaarch64 Applies to coresight/next 30d1f1c71b James Clark (15): coresight: Make ETM4x TRCIDR0 register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCIDR2 register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCIDR3 register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCIDR4 register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCIDR5 register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCCONFIGR register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCEVENTCTL1R register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCSTALLCTLR register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCVICTLR register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM3x ETMTECR1 register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCACATRn register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCSSCCRn and TRCSSCSRn register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCSSPCICRn register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCBBCTLR register accesses consistent with sysreg.h coresight: Make ETM4x TRCRSCTLRn register accesses consistent with sysreg.h .../coresight/coresight-etm3x-core.c | 2 +- .../coresight/coresight-etm3x-sysfs.c | 2 +- .../coresight/coresight-etm4x-core.c | 135 +++++-------- .../coresight/coresight-etm4x-sysfs.c | 178 +++++++++--------- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x.h | 159 ++++++++++++++-- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-priv.h | 1 + 6 files changed, 283 insertions(+), 194 deletions(-) -- 2.28.0

[PATCH 0/1] coresight: no-op refactor to make INSTP0 check more idiomatic

by James Clark

In preparation for the bigger register refactor, simplify one of the accesses otherwise it looked even more obfuscated after the refactor. This can't be included in the main set because it causes a small change in the binary, although functionally this refactor is also a no-op.

[PATCH v2 0/6] coresight: syscfg: Extend configfs for config load

by Mike Leach

This set extends the configfs support to allow loading and unloading of configurations as binary files via configfs. Additional attributes - load, unload and last_load_status are provided to implement the load functionality. Routines to generate binary configuration files are supplied in ./samples/coresight. Example generator and reader applications are provided. Additional Makefile.host supplied to build the generator and reader applications on the host system separate from a cross compiled kernel. Documentation is updated to describe feature usage. Applies and tested on latest coresight/next that includes the previous coresight configuration dynamic load patchset. Changes since v1: 1) Rebased to coresight/next - 5.16-rc1 with previous coresight config set applied. 2) Makefile.host fixed to default to all target.
