[RFC PATCH v5 0/3] riscv: Add preliminary custom CSR support
Posted by Ruinland Chuan-Tzu Tsai 4 years, 3 months ago
Hi Alistair, Bin and all :

Sorry for bumping this stale topic.
As our last discussion, I have removed Kconfigs and meson options.
The custom CSR logic is in-built by default and whether a custom CSR
is presented on the accessing hart will be checked at runtime.

Changes from V4 :
Remove Kconfigs and meson options.
Make custom CSR handling logic self-contained.
Use g_hash_table_new instead of g_hash_table_new_full.

The performance slowdown could be easily tested with a simple program
running on linux-user mode :

/* test_csr.c */
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/time.h>

int main (int ac, char *av[]) {
   struct  timeval start;
   struct  timeval end;
   gettimeofday(&start,NULL);
   unsigned int loop_n = 999999 ;
   unsigned char i;
   unsigned char o;
   do {
       for(i=0; i<32; i++) { 
       #if defined(FCSR)
       __asm__("csrw fcsr, %0;"::"r"(i));
       __asm__("csrr %0, fcsr;":"=r"(o));
       #elif defined(UITB)
       __asm__("csrw 0x800, %0;"::"r"(i));
       __asm__("csrr %0, 0x800;":"=r"(o));
       #endif
       }
       --loop_n;
   } while (loop_n > 0);
   gettimeofday(&end,NULL);
   unsigned long diff = 1000000 * 
(end.tv_sec-start.tv_sec)+end.tv_usec-start.tv_usec;
   printf("%f\n", (double)(diff)/1000000);
   return 0;
}

$ riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc -static -DUITB ./test_csr.c -o ./u
$ riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc -static -DFCSR ./test_csr.c -o ./f
$ qemu-riscv64 ./{u,f}

Cordially yours,

No worries!

This looks great! I had a look through this and I think we are almost
there. I left a few comments, but otherwise I think we are close.

Let's see if anyone else has any comments. Otherwise can you run
checkpatch on each patch and then send a PATCH series (not an RFC) in
a week or so and we can go from there.

Do you have the results?
