Common Not Private (CNP) is a feature of ARMv8.2 extension which
allows translation table entries to be shared between different PEs in
the same inner shareable domain, so the hardware can use this fact to
optimise the caching of such entries in the TLB.

CNP occupies one bit in TTBRx_ELy and VTTBR_EL2, which advertises to
the hardware that the translation table entries pointed to by this
TTBR are the same as every PE in the same inner shareable domain for
which the equivalent TTBR also has CNP bit set. In case CNP bit is set
but TTBR does not point at the same translation table entries or a
given ASID and VMID, then the system is mis-configured, so the results
of translations are UNPREDICTABLE.

This patch adds support for Common Not Private translations on
different exceptions levels:

(1) For EL0 there are a few cases we need to care of changes in
    TTBR0_EL1:
    - a switch to idmap
    - software emulated PAN
    we rule out latter via Kconfig options and for the former we make
    sure that CNP is set for non-zero ASIDs only.

(2) For EL1 we postpone setting CNP till all cpus are up and rely on
    cpufeature framework to 1) patch the code which is sensitive to
    CNP and 2) update TTBR1_EL1 with CNP bit set. TTBR1_EL1 can be
    reprogrammed as result of hibernation or cpuidle (via __enable_mmu).
    cpuidle's path has been changed to restore CnP and for hibernation
    the code has been changed to save raw TTBR1_EL1 and blindly restore
    it on resume.

I've been looking at how CNP interacts with the asid allocator. I think we
depend on a subtlety that wasn't obvious to me at first.

Can you check I'm reading this properly:
The ARM-ARM's 'D4.8.1 Use of ASIDs and VMIDs to reduce TLB maintenance
requirements' reads as if you can only share a TLB entry if both CPUs are using
that ASID at the same time:

> When the value of a TTBR_ELx.CnP field is 1,

(on CPU-A)

(CPU-B's corresponding TTBR right?)

This would suggest CPU-A stops sharing its TLB entries for an asid when it
changes asid by scheduling a new task. A single-threaded task would never
benefit from CNP.


We will depend on this behaviour when we re-use an asid that was previously used
on a remote CPU that hasn't yet noticed the rollover and invalidated its TLB.

Could you wrap this in system_supports_cnp(). Otherwise it replaces ttbr1
unnecessarily.

This function is called with the idmap loaded, it seems unnecessary to remove it
twice. You could refactor cpu_replace_ttbr1() to have a __version that is called
with the idmap loaded, then call that before the cpu_uninstall_idmap() above.


Thanks,

James

While I remember:

This feature is going to be fun for kdump, we may leave secondary CPUs running
if they don't take the IPI to crash-out of the kernel. Worse, if we don't have
PSCI they just spin in a loop while the surviving CPU brings up the crash kernel
and maybe-enables CNP...

I think the best fix for this is to refuse to enable CNP at all if we're a crash
kernel. There is stuff in the DT to indicate this... we should know about the
'elfcorehdr' before cpufeature runs. (I don't think we should rely on the
cmdline option).

kexec is unaffected because it always powers-off the secondary CPUs before
leaving the old kernel. This behaves much more like a normal boot.


Thanks,

James

Thanks, I'll look into it.
