Merge patch series "riscv: support kernel-mode Vector"

Andy Chiu <andy.chiu@sifive.com> says:

This series provides support running Vector in kernel mode.
Additionally, kernel-mode Vector can be configured to run without
turnning off preemption on a CONFIG_PREEMPT kernel. Along with the
suport, we add Vector optimized copy_{to,from}_user. And provide a
simple threshold to decide when to run the vectorized functions.

We decided to drop vectorized memcpy/memset/memmove for the moment due
to the concern of memory side-effect in kernel_vector_begin(). The
detailed description can be found at v9[0]

This series is composed by 4 parts:
 patch 1-4: adds basic support for kernel-mode Vector
 patch 5: includes vectorized copy_{to,from}_user into the kernel
 patch 6: refactor context switch code in fpu [1]
 patch 7-10: provides some code refactors and support for preemptible
             kernel-mode Vector.

This series can be merged if we feel any part of {1~4, 5, 6, 7~10} is
mature enough.

This patch is tested on a QEMU with V and verified that booting, normal
userspace operations all work as usual with thresholds set to 0. Also,
we test by launching multiple kernel threads which continuously executes
and verifies Vector operations in the background. The module that tests
these operation is expected to be upstream later.

* b4-shazam-merge:
  riscv: vector: allow kernel-mode Vector with preemption
  riscv: vector: use kmem_cache to manage vector context
  riscv: vector: use a mask to write vstate_ctrl
  riscv: vector: do not pass task_struct into riscv_v_vstate_{save,restore}()
  riscv: fpu: drop SR_SD bit checking
  riscv: lib: vectorize copy_to_user/copy_from_user
  riscv: sched: defer restoring Vector context for user
  riscv: Add vector extension XOR implementation
  riscv: vector: make Vector always available for softirq context
  riscv: Add support for kernel mode vector

+ * We use a flag to track in-kernel Vector context. Currently the flag has the
+ * following meaning:
+ *
+ *  - bit 0: indicates whether the in-kernel Vector context is active. The
+ *    activation of this state disables the preemption. On a non-RT kernel, it
+ *    also disable bh.
+ *  - bits 8: is used for tracking preemptible kernel-mode Vector, when
+ *    RISCV_ISA_V_PREEMPTIVE is enabled. Calling kernel_vector_begin() does not
+ *    disable the preemption if the thread's kernel_vstate.datap is allocated.
+ *    Instead, the kernel set this bit field. Then the trap entry/exit code
+ *    knows if we are entering/exiting the context that owns preempt_v.
+ *     - 0: the task is not using preempt_v
+ *     - 1: the task is actively using preempt_v. But whether does the task own
+ *          the preempt_v context is decided by bits in RISCV_V_CTX_DEPTH_MASK.
+ *  - bit 16-23 are RISCV_V_CTX_DEPTH_MASK, used by context tracking routine
+ *     when preempt_v starts:
+ *     - 0: the task is actively using, and own preempt_v context.
+ *     - non-zero: the task was using preempt_v, but then took a trap within.
+ *       Thus, the task does not own preempt_v. Any use of Vector will have to
+ *       save preempt_v, if dirty, and fallback to non-preemptible kernel-mode
+ *       Vector.
+ *  - bit 30: The in-kernel preempt_v context is saved, and requries to be
+ *    restored when returning to the context that owns the preempt_v.
+ *  - bit 31: The in-kernel preempt_v context is dirty, as signaled by the
+ *    trap entry code. Any context switches out-of current task need to save
+ *    it to the task's in-kernel V context. Also, any traps nesting on-top-of
+ *    preempt_v requesting to use V needs a save.
