[PATCH] [v2] x86: apic: avoid -Wshadow warning in header
Posted by Arnd Bergmann 3 years, 5 months ago
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

There are hundreds of warnings in a W=2 build about a local
variable shadowing the global 'apic' definition:

arch/x86/kvm/lapic.h:149:65: warning: declaration of 'apic' shadows a global declaration [-Wshadow]

Avoid this by renaming the global 'apic' variable to the more descriptive
'x86_system_apic'. It was originally called 'genapic', but both that
and the current 'apic' seem to be a little overly generic for a global
variable.

Fixes: c48f14966cc4 ("KVM: inline kvm_apic_present() and kvm_lapic_enabled()")
Fixes: c8d46cf06dc2 ("x86: rename 'genapic' to 'apic'")
Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
---
v2: rename the global instead of the local variable in the header

This is only tested in an allmodconfig build, after fixing up a
few mistakes in the original search&replace. It's likely that I
missed a few others, but this version should be sufficient to
decide whether this is a good idea in the first place, as well
as if there are better ideas for the new name.

The 'apic' affects only the current CPU, so one of 'x86_local_apic',
'x86_lapic' or 'x86_apic' is probably preferrable.

I don't have huge objections to renaming 'apic' variables and arguments
in KVM to 'lapic'.  I do agree with Sean however that it's going to
break again very soon.

Ok, I'll change it to x86_local_apic then, unless someone else has
a preference between them.

I think ideally there would be no global variable, withall accesses
encapsulated in function calls, possibly using static_call() optimizations
if any of them are performance critical.

It doesn't seem hard to do, but I'd rather leave that change to
an x86 person ;-)

There isn't really a massive difference between global variables
and global access functions.

x86_local_apic is fine with me.

There are a bunch, yes.

It's not hard, but I'm not really sure whether it buys much.

Can you please redo that against tip x86/apic. Much of what you are
touching got a major overhaul.

Thanks,

For those two just add:
	struct apic *apic = x86_system_apic;
before all the assignments.
Less churn and much better code.

I think he means the compiler produces better code, because it won't
read the global variable repeatedly.  Not sure if that's true,(*) but I
think I do prefer that version if Arnd wants to do that tweak.

Paolo

(*) if it is, it might also be due to Linux using -fno-strict-aliasing

Nope, it doesn't read it multiple times. I guess it still assumes that
apic isn't in the middle of what it points to: it would reload the
address if the first element of *apic was modified, but doesn't for
other elements. Interesting.

It's not true.

     foo *p = bar;

     p->a = 1;
     p->b = 2;

The compiler is free to reload bar after accessing p->a and with

    bar->a = 1;
    bar->b = 1;

it can either cache bar in a register or reread it after bar->a

The generated code is the same as long as there is no reason to reload,
e.g. register pressure.

It's not quite the same.

With -fno-strict-aliasing, the compiler reloads the pointer if you write
to the start of what it points to, but not if you write to later
elements.

I guess it assumes that global data doesn't overlap.

But in general they are sort of opposites:

With the local variable it can reload if it knows the write
cannot have affected the global - but is unlikely to do so.

Using the global it must reload if it is possible the write
might have affected the global.

Yeah, setting

	p = (struct s *) ((char *)&p) - 8;

invokes undefined behavior _for a different reason than strict aliasing_
(it's a pointer that is based on "p" but points before its start or
after one byte past its end).  So the compiler assumes that only the
first few bytes of a global can overlap it.

If you change the size of the fields from long to char in the compiler
explorer link above, every field forces a reload of the global.
