CONFIG_KASAN implements wrappers for memcpy() memmove() and memset()
Those wrappers are doing the verification then call respectively
__memcpy() __memmove() and __memset(). The arches are therefore
expected to rename their optimised functions that way.
For files on which KASAN is inhibited, #defines are used to allow
them to directly call optimised versions of the functions without
going through the KASAN wrappers.
See commit 393f203f5f ("x86_64: kasan: add interceptors for
memset/memmove/memcpy functions") for details.
Other string / mem functions do not (yet) have kasan wrappers,
we therefore have to fallback to the generic versions when
KASAN is active, otherwise KASAN checks will be skipped.

The hand-coded assembler 64-bit copy routines include feature sections
that select one code path or another depending on which CPU we are
executing on. The self-tests for these copy routines end up testing
just one path. This adds a mechanism for selecting any desired code
path at compile time, and makes 2 or 3 versions of each test, each
using a different code path, so as to cover all the possible paths.

Rather than override the machine type in .S code (which can hide wrong
or ambiguous code generation for the target), set the type to power4
for all assembly.
This also means we need to be careful not to build power4-only code
when we're not building for Book3S, such as the "power7" versions of
copyuser/page/memcpy.

This series adds support for building the powerpc 64-bit
LE kernel using the new ABI v2. We already supported
running ABI v2 userspace programs but this adds support
for building the kernel itself using the new ABI.
Unaligned stores take alignment exceptions on POWER7 running in little-endian.
This is a dumb little-endian base memcpy that prevents unaligned stores.
Once booted the feature fixup code switches over to the VMX copy loops
(which are already endian safe).
The question is what we do before that switch over. The base 64bit
memcpy takes alignment exceptions on POWER7 so we can't use it as is.
Fixing the causes of alignment exception would slow it down, because
we'd need to ensure all loads and stores are aligned either through
rotate tricks or bytewise loads and stores. Either would be bad for
all other 64bit platforms.

If an assembly function that calls back into c code is exported to

Some of the assembler files in lib/ make use of the fact that in the
ELFv1 ABI, the caller guarantees to provide stack space to save the
parameter registers r3 ... r10. This guarantee is no longer present
in ELFv2 for functions that have no variable argument list and no
more than 8 arguments.
Change the affected routines to temporarily store registers in the
red zone and/or the top of their own stack frame (in the space
provided to save r31 .. r29, which is actually not used in these
routines).
In opal_query_takeover, simply always allocate a stack frame;
the routine is not performance critical.

Turn Anton's memcpy / copy_tofrom_user test into something that can
live in tools/testing/selftests.
It requires one turd in arch/powerpc/lib/memcpy_64.S, but it's pretty
harmless IMHO.
We are sailing very close to the wind with the feature macros. We define
them to nothing, which currently means we get a few extra nops and
include the unaligned calls.

Also convert usages of macros where we are just determining an offset

Can't use STK_REG(r14) as %r14 doesn't work in the STK_REG macro since

Implement a POWER7 optimised memcpy using VMX and enhanced prefetch
instructions.
This is a copy of the POWER7 optimised copy_to_user/copy_from_user
loop. Detailed implementation and performance details can be found in
commit a66086b819 (powerpc: POWER7 optimised
copy_to_user/copy_from_user using VMX).
I noticed memcpy issues when profiling a RAID6 workload:
.memcpy
.async_memcpy
.async_copy_data
.__raid_run_ops
.handle_stripe
.raid5d
.md_thread
I created a simplified testcase by building a RAID6 array with 4 1GB
ramdisks (booting with brd.rd_size=1048576):
# mdadm -CR -e 1.2 /dev/md0 --level=6 -n4 /dev/ram[0-3]
I then timed how long it took to write to the entire array:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md0 bs=1M
Before: 892 MB/s
After: 999 MB/s
A 12% improvement.

Remove CONFIG_POWER4_ONLY, the option is badly named and only does two
things:
- It wraps the MMU segment table code. With feature fixups there is
little downside to compiling this in.
- It uses the newer mtocrf instruction in various assembly functions.
Instead of making this a compile option just do it at runtime via
a feature fixup.

This fixes a regression introduced by commit
25d6e2d7c5 ("powerpc: Update 64bit memcpy()
using CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD").
This commit allowed CPUs that have the CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD CPU
feature bit present to do the memcpy() with unaligned load doubles. But,
along with this came a bug where our final load double would read bytes
beyond a page boundary and into the next (unmapped) page. This was caught
by enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC,
The fix was to read only the number of bytes that we need to store rather
than reading a full 8-byte doubleword and storing only a portion of that.
In order to minimise the amount of existing code touched we use the
original do_tail for the src_unaligned case.
Below is an example of the regression, as reported by Sachin Sant:

Update memcpy() to add two new feature sections: one for aligning the
destination before copying and one for copying using aligned load
and store doubles.
These new feature sections will only affect Power6 and Cell because
the CPU feature bit was only added to these two processors.
Power6 gets its best performance in memcpy() when aligning neither the
source nor the destination, while Cell gets its best performance when
just the destination is aligned. But in order to save on CPU feature
bits we can use the previously added CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ feature bit
to differentiate between Power6 and Cell (because CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ
was added to Cell but not Power6).
The first feature section acts to nop out the branch that takes us to
the code that aligns us to an eight byte boundary for the destination.
We only want to nop out this branch on Power6.
So the ALT_FTR_SECTION_END() for this feature section creates a test
mask of the two feature bits ORed together and provides an expected
result of just CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD, thus we nop out the branch
if we're on a CPU that has CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD set and
CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ unset.
For the second feature section added, if we're on a CPU that has the
CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD bit set then we don't want to do the copy
with aligned loads and stores (and the appropriate shifting left and
right instructions), so we want to nop out the branch to
.Lsrc_unaligned.
The andi. used for this branch is moved to just above the branch
because this allows us to nop out both instructions with just one
feature section which gives us better performance and doesn't hurt
readability which two separate feature sections did.
Moving the andi. to just above the branch doesn't have any noticeable
negative effect on the remaining 64bit processors (the ones that
didn't have this feature bit added).
On Cell this simple modification results in an improvement to measured
memcpy() bandwidth of up to 50% in the hot cache case and up to 15% in
the cold cache case.
On Power6 we get memory bandwidth results that are up to three times
faster in the hot cache case and up to 50% faster in the cold cache
case.
Commit 2a9294369b ("powerpc: Add new CPU
feature: CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ") was where CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ was
added.
To say that Cell gets its best performance in memcpy() with just the
destination aligned is true but only for the reason that the indirect
shift and rotate instructions, sld and srd, are microcoded on Cell.
This means that either the destination or the source can be aligned,
but not both, and seeing as we get better performance with the
destination aligned we choose this option.
While we're at it make a one line change from cmpldi r1,... to
cmpldi cr1,... for consistency.
