There is a newer version of this series
[PATCH v9 03/17] target/riscv: save and restore elp state on priv transitions
Posted by Deepak Gupta 2 months, 4 weeks ago
elp state is recorded in *status on trap entry (less privilege to higher
privilege) and restored in elp from *status on trap exit (higher to less
privilege).

Additionally this patch introduces a forward cfi helper function to
determine if current privilege has forward cfi is enabled or not based on
*envcfg (for U, VU, S, VU, HS) or mseccfg csr (for M). For qemu-user, a
new field `ufcfien` is introduced which is by default set to false and
helper function returns value deposited in `ufcfien` for qemu-user.

Thinking about this more, I think adding separate controls for user-only is a bad 
precedent to set.  You said you are adding these because senvcfg/menvcfg are ifdefed: 
well, that should be the thing that we fix.

The only real user of *envcfg that I see so far is check_zicbo_envcfg, which does not use 
the same switch statement as this:

I think your function should look more like check_zicbo_envcfg: (1) PRV_U may be either U 
or VU, and different tests apply; (2) M-mode disable means that no lower level may be enabled.

It would be nice if you could generalize check_zicbo_envcfg to apply to your new use as 
well.  Perhaps some tri-state function to say "enabled", "disabled", "virtual disabled".

If a binary is compiled with zicbo, it'll have those instructions in user
binary. I am not sure how those binaries will run on qemu-user (or if it was
tested with qemu-user)

In case of zicfilp + zicfiss we are runnning binaries compiled with zicfilp
and zicfiss with qemu-user and qemu-system both. Use of qemu-user to generate
traces for feeding into CPU modeling is quite useful. Thus mechanism to track
if landing pad and shadow stack is enabled for current user task (in case of
qemu-user) is very useful.

senvcfg and menvcfg belong to S and M state and don't actually mean anything
for qemu-user. However if that's how it is for arm as well (i.e. exposing system
state for qemu-user), then probably there is precedent.
But it looks like a much larger exercise to me.

In case of landing pad, (2) doesn't hold true. Each mode can independently
enable landing pad for next lower mode even if it wasn't enabled for current
mode. Reason being that you can have a firmware which is still not landing pad
enabled and you would want to avoid landing pad related faults in M mode but
still want to make sure S mode and U mode can enable landing pad for themselves.
Same goes with respect to S mode, S mode can have its landing pad disabled while
it can enable landing pad for U mode.

Although logic for shadow stack enable is same as zicbo. Shadow stack enable requires
target software to opt-in by having instructions compiled in and doesn't impact 
behavior of existing instructions.

So while shadow stack and zicbo are similar in terms of enabling. Landing pad
enable differs. 

You still want me to generalize *envcfg flow?

Certainly they do, in that you obviously have arch_prctl calls that adjust them.  The fact 
that you've modeled those so far as separate variables is part of what is confusing.

I think having special paths for qemu-user in target/arch/ is maintenance burden, and 
should be avoided if possible.  The best way to reason with user-only is to treat it just 
like the full machine, and set the fields just like the real bios and kernel would do.

Hmm.  I'll leave that to riscv maintainers; perhaps a third user is required to show 
generality...

I agree about avoiding adding these special variables.

Can't we just use the extension check to enable it for userspace?
Exposing the *envcfg CSRs to userspace seems tricky as everything is
currently built with the S/M CSRs removed from user builds.

It is as simple as moving them out of ifdefs, then initializing them as needed in reset 
for CONFIG_USER_ONLY.  That's what we do for Arm.

Is that really better though?

Then we have these CSRs that are included in the build, so people can
write code that checks the CSRs, but they are never actually changed.

I guess it simplified the CONFIG_USER_ONLY checks, which is handy and
your original point. But it seems like it is clunky that we have these
CSRs that are kind of fake

They're not fake.  They're a reflection of how the system-mode kernel configures the 
system-mode user environment.

The u[bf]cfien variables introduced in this patch set are an indication of this.  Within 
this patch set they're always false.  But the intent is to implement the (proposed) prctl 
syscalls that will set them to true (on hold waiting for kernel abi to land upstream, but 
were present in an earlier patch set revision.)

The correct implementation of those syscalls, in my opinion, is to set the corresponding 
[ms]envcfg bits.  Just as linux-user/aarch64/target_prctl.h does for SVE et al.

Yeah, that actually does sound better.

That sounds like the way to go then
