[PATCH v8 0/5] support FEAT_LSUI and apply it on futex atomic ops
Posted by Yeoreum Yun 2 weeks ago
Since Armv9.6, FEAT_LSUI supplies the load/store instructions for
previleged level to access to access user memory without clearing
PSTATE.PAN bit.

This patchset support FEAT_LSUI and applies in futex atomic operation
where can replace from ldxr/stlxr pair implmentation with clearing
PSTATE.PAN bit to correspondant load/store unprevileged atomic operation
without clearing PSTATE.PAN bit.

Patch Sequences
================

Patch #1 adds cpufeature for FEAT_LSUI

Patch #2 expose FEAT_LSUI to guest

Patch #3 adds Kconfig for FEAT_LSUI

Patch #4 refactor former futex atomic-op implmentation with ll/sc &
         clearing PSTATE.PAN

Patch #5 support futext atomic-op with FEAT_LSUI

Patch History
==============
from v7 to v8:
  - implements futex_atomic_eor() and futex_atomic_cmpxchg() with casalt
    with C helper.
  - Drop the small optimisation on ll/sc futex_atomic_set operation.
  - modify some commit message.
  - https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250816151929.197589-1-yeoreum.yun@arm.com/

from v6 to v7:
  - wrap FEAT_LSUI with CONFIG_AS_HAS_LSUI in cpufeature
  - remove unnecessary addition of indentation.
  - remove unnecessary mte_tco_enable()/disable() on LSUI operation.
  - https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250811163635.1562145-1-yeoreum.yun@arm.com/

from v5 to v6:
  - rebase to v6.17-rc1
  - https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250722121956.1509403-1-yeoreum.yun@arm.com/

from v4 to v5:
  - remove futex_ll_sc.h futext_lsui and lsui.h and move them to futex.h
  - reorganize the patches.

  - add help section for LUSI Kconfig
  - https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250611151154.46362-1-yeoreum.yun@arm.com/

from v1 to v2:
  - remove empty v9.6 menu entry
  - locate HAS_LUSI in cpucaps in order
  - https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250611104916.10636-1-yeoreum.yun@arm.com/
