[PATCH v2 1/4] xen/riscv: add exception table support
Posted by Oleksii Kurochko 1 day, 4 hours ago
Introduce exception table handling for RISC-V so faults from selected
instructions can be recovered via fixup handlers instead of being
treated as fatal.

Add the RISC-V exception table format, sorting at boot to allow binary
search used furthuer, and lookup from the trap handler. Update the
linker script to emit the .ex_table section using introduced common
EX_TABLE macro shared with other architectures.

Also, reduce __start___ex_table alignment from 8 to 4 bytes to
match the natural alignment of struct exception_table_entry,
which contains two int32_t fields.

Add inclusion of asm/extable.h to asm/bug.h to deal with compilation
issue of common/virtual_region.c, which require declaration of
__start___ex_table and __stop___ex_table.

This implementation is based on Linux 6.16.

Changes in v2:
 - Corrected the name for __start_ex_table identifier in the commit message.
 - Droped plural where extables is used.
 - Added inclusuion of <asm/extable.h> to deal with compilation (nothing
   declares __start___ex_table and __stop___ex_table) of common/virtual_region.c.
 - Use long for delta variable inside swap_ex in extable.c.
 - To take into acoount live-patching code:
   - s/sort_extable/sort_exception_tables.
   - Introduce sort_exception_table() as liveaptch code requires it and
     re-use it inside sort_exception_tables().
- Drop cmp_ex_search() and rename cmp_ex_sort() to cmp_ex().
  Rename local variable l and r inside cmp_ex().
- Identation fixes.
- prefer sizeof(<expression>) over sizeof(<type>) in calls of bsearch() and
  sort().
- Return back defintion of asm_extable() for __ASSEMBLER__ case.
- Correct the comment above declaration of struct exception_table_entry.
- Drop else in do_trap() before "if ( fixup_exception() )" to visually separate
  the set of checks.
- Align start of exception table section by 4-bytes as exception table struct
  contains two 4 bytes integers.
- Make extable.o compile unconditionally.
- Drop ifdef HAS_EX_TABLE in extable.h as extable.o is always compiled.
- Drop ifdef around defintion of EX_TABLE.
- Drop __init for cmp_ex as it is now used in fixup_exception() which isn't
  marked as __init.
- Return void instead of bool for ex_handler_fixup() as this function always
  returns true.
- Update the comment above defintion of struct exception_table_entry() to be
  more accurate.
- Add inclusion of asm/extable.h to asm/bug.h to deal with compilation issue
  of common/virtual_region.c, which require declaration of __start___ex_table
  and __stop___ex_table.
