[PATCH] xen/arm: Using unsigned long for arm64 MPIDR mask
Posted by Wei Chen 3 years, 10 months ago 
Curretly, Xen is using UINT32 for MPIDR mask to retrieve
affinity[0,1,2,3] values for MPIDR_EL1 register. The value
of MPIDR_EL1 is 64-bit unsigned long. The operation of 64-bit
and 32-bit integers are compiler related. This means the value
is unpredictable.

For example, when we are using MPIDR_AFF0_MASK to get
cluster_id from a 64-bit integer in gic-v3 driver:
uint64_t cluster_id = cpu_logical_map(cpu) & ~MPIDR_AFF0_MASK;

When MPIDR_AFF0_MASK is UINT32, compiler output:
    f7c: 92785c16 and x22, x0, #0xffffff00
When MPIDR_AFF0_MASK is unsigned long, compiler output:
    f88: 9278dc75 and x21, x3, #0xffffffffffffff00

If we have a cpu_logical_map(cpu)= 0x1,00000000. We except
to get a cluster_id 1, but with UINT32 MPIDR_AFF0_MASK, we
will get 0.

So, in this patch, we force aarch64 to use unsigned long
as MPIDR mask to avoid such unpredictable operations.

So I agree that ~MPIDR_AFF0_MASK will do the negation in 32-bit rather 
than 64-bit. However, I disagree that this is unpredicable or compiler 
specific.

Something doesn't match here. If the cluster_id were 1, then it should 
surely be 1 as well even with the 32-bit mask because there is no shift.

So did you intend to say 0x1,00000000?

Per above, I don't think this is unpredictable.

got it.

Yeah, I agree with you, my commit message here is not accurate. This
problem hadn't been found so far, so I had thought maybe someone
can work well with aff3. From the code, Xen had used 'U' for constant in
MPIDR_AFF0_MASK, so it would always be a unsigned extend. The aff3
will be dropped. I will update my commit message in next version.

Sorry, I copied the value from device tree node name. I intend to say the 
cpu_logical_map(cpu)= 0x100000000UL, the aff3 (bit32 ~ 39) is 1.

I am not sure we are in the same page of cluster_id. The cluster_id I mentioned
above is a variable in gicv3_send_sgi_list function. The cluster_id you had
mentioned is aff2?

I will remove the last part of above sentence.
