Subject: [PATCH v4 00/12] riscv: ASID-related and UP-related TLB flush enhancements
Date: Tue,  2 Jan 2024 14:00:37 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240102220134.3229156-1-samuel.holland@sifive.com> (raw)

While reviewing Alexandre Ghiti's "riscv: tlb flush improvements"
series[1], I noticed that most TLB flush functions end up as a call to
local_flush_tlb_all() when SMP is disabled. This series resolves that,
and also optimizes the scenario where SMP is enabled but only one CPU is
present or online. Along the way, I realized that we should be using
single-ASID flushes wherever possible, so I implemented that as well.

Here are some numbers from D1 (with SMP disabled) which show the
performance impact:

Changes in v4:
 - Fix a possible race between flush_icache_*() and SMP bringup
 - Refactor riscv_use_ipi_for_rfence() to make later changes cleaner
 - Optimize kernel TLB flushes with only one CPU online
 - Optimize global cache/TLB flushes with only one CPU online
 - Merge the two copies of __flush_tlb_range() and rely on the compiler
   to optimize out the broadcast path (both clang and gcc do this)
 - Merge the two copies of flush_tlb_all() and rely on constant folding
 - Only set tlb_flush_all_threshold when CONFIG_MMU=y.

Changes in v3:
 - Fixed a performance regression caused by executing sfence.vma in a
   loop on implementations affected by SiFive CIP-1200
 - Rebased on v6.7-rc1

Changes in v2:
 - Move the SMP/UP merge earlier in the series to avoid build issues
 - Make a copy of __flush_tlb_range() instead of adding ifdefs inside
 - local_flush_tlb_all() is the only function used on !MMU (smpboot.c)

Samuel Holland (12):

  riscv: mm: Combine the SMP and UP TLB flush code
  riscv: Apply SiFive CIP-1200 workaround to single-ASID sfence.vma
  riscv: Avoid TLB flush loops when affected by SiFive CIP-1200
  riscv: mm: Introduce cntx2asid/cntx2version helper macros
  riscv: mm: Use a fixed layout for the MM context ID
  riscv: mm: Make asid_bits a local variable
  riscv: mm: Preserve global TLB entries when switching contexts
  riscv: mm: Always use an ASID to flush mm contexts
