clone with CLONE_SETTLS accepts an argument to set the thread-local
storage area for the new thread. sys_clone declares an int argument
tls_val in the appropriate point in the argument list (based on the
various CLONE_BACKWARDS variants), but doesn't actually use or pass
along that argument. Instead, sys_clone calls do_fork, which calls
copy_process, which calls the arch-specific copy_thread, and copy_thread
pulls the corresponding syscall argument out of the pt_regs captured at
kernel entry (knowing what argument of clone that architecture passes
tls in).
Apart from being awful and inscrutable, that also only works because
only one code path into copy_thread can pass the CLONE_SETTLS flag, and
that code path comes from sys_clone with its architecture-specific
argument-passing order. This prevents introducing a new version of the
clone system call without propagating the same architecture-specific
position of the tls argument.
However, there's no reason to pull the argument out of pt_regs when
sys_clone could just pass it down via C function call arguments.
Introduce a new CONFIG_HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS for architectures to opt
into, and a new copy_thread_tls that accepts the tls parameter as an
additional unsigned long (syscall-argument-sized) argument.
Change sys_clone's tls argument to an unsigned long (which does
not change the ABI), and pass that down to copy_thread_tls.
Architectures that don't opt into copy_thread_tls will continue to
ignore the C argument to sys_clone in favor of the pt_regs captured at
kernel entry, and thus will be unable to introduce new versions of the
clone syscall.

What happens quite frequently is that we do something for x86 with the
expectation that other architectures will follow along, but this
doesn't happen. The arch maintainers simply didn't know about it or
nobody nags them. Nothing happens and inconsistencies hang around for
years. eg, http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1504.2/04993.html
I'm thinking we should find a way to do this better. One way might be
to maintain a Documentation/arch-todo which identifies each item, has a
little list of what-to-do instructions and perhaps a list of the
not-yet-done architectures. Basically a way for everyone to
communicate at the arch maintainers.

If only there was a linux-arch list to which arch maintainers should
subscribe... oh wait :-)

It was I who got linux-arch established, so I'm fairly familiar with
it. (12 years ago, gad).
I don't think it's been very successful, particularly for this purpose.
A whole pile of randomly cc'ed lkml overflow which we're relying on each
individual maintainer to sift through and pluck out particular action
items then later remember to implement them. It's disorganized and has
too many cracks for things to fall through.

In this case, there will be a very clear incentive to switch to
CONFIG_HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS: if you don't, you can't enable new
syscalls.

Yes, a mailing list is indeed not a very good TODO list.
We need a persistent post-it, and Documentation/arch-TODO (note the
capital letters, we might as well shout?) sounds like a good place.
I'd suggest making it tabular, as per the patch below.
If it gets too large we can split it into multiple tables.
I'd like people to have a good look whether I messed up any entry, and
I'd be happy to add new items as well.
Thanks,
Ingo

So this is the final version for now:
- add a fourth table
- fix errors in earlier tables, in particular I missed some PowerPC
Kconfigs
- introduce the '..' denotion (in the final table) to show features
that cannot be supported by an architecture due to hardware
dependencies:
gcov-profile-all:---------------.
THP:--------. |
irq-time-acct:-. | |
| | |
----------------------------------------
alpha | TODO | TODO | TODO |
arc | TODO | .. | TODO |
arm | ok | ok | ok |
arm64 | TODO | ok | ok |
avr32 | TODO | .. | TODO |
blackfin | TODO | .. | TODO |
c6x | TODO | .. | TODO |
so in the 'THP' column, if an architecture could in theory support
THP, it's listed as 'TODO', if it cannot, it's listed as '..'.
Please let me know about errors in these tables, and I can also add
more features/facilities as well if I missed any.
Thanks,
Ingo

Shouldn't exactly that explanation be in the text file itself too?
Also, how about s/TODO//g for less clutter:

Yeah, indeed, added it.
> Also, how about s/TODO//g for less clutter:
No, I'd like there to be a very visible 'TODO' item for missing
features.
The 'clutter' shows how badly our generic kernel features are
propagating :-/ We hope to reduce this clutter in the future.
Updated patch attached - I've added a few more features to the last
table, and restructured the explanations, now every feature
description also lists the Kconfig variable that it's tracking, e.g.:
irq time acct: HAVE_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING
THP: HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE && 64BIT
gcov profile all: ARCH_HAS_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL
rwsem optimized: Optimized asm/rwsem.h
queued spinlocks: ARCH_USE_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS
queued rwlocks: ARCH_USE_QUEUED_RWLOCKS
numa balancing: ARCH_SUPPORTS_NUMA_BALANCING && 64BIT && NUMA
Thanks,
Ingo

Tried to transpose rows with columns, to avoid architecture name duplication

I thought about that, too, as there are more (not fully implemented) features
than architectures. But I expect more merge conflicts with the transposed
version.

Could you add a column for the bpf JIT?
Should this file track syscalls not wired up on architectures?
How likely is this to get out of date? Are people going to remember to
patch this when they add a feature to their architecture? If
they found out they had work to do by reading this file, which is the
goal, then they'll likely remember to edit the file; however, if they
find the feature and fix it without knowing about the file, will someone
notice?
Is there any way we can *generate* this file from Kconfig? Can we
extract the necessary "this is possible to enable" or "this arch selects
this symbol" information from Kconfig, and together with the list of
symbols for features needing architecture support, generate the table?
If we can't generate this, then the ASCII-art style and right-aligned
feature names seems *really* likely to produce spurious conflicts,
especially when adding a feature to the list. Even though it would
produce a much longer file, would you consider dropping the tables and
just having a section per feature? That also avoids the need to
abbreviate as much. For instance:
Transparent huge pages
HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE && 64BIT
alpha TODO
arc ..
arm ok
arm64 ok
avr32 ..
blackfin ..
c6x ..
cris ..
frv ..
hexagon ..
ia64 TODO
m32r ..
m68k ..
metag ..
microblaze ..
mips ok

openrisc ..
parisc TODO
powerpc ok
s390 ok
score ..
sh ..
sparc ok
tile TODO
um ..
unicore32 ..
x86 ok
xtensa ..
Or alternatively:
Transparent huge pages
HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE && 64BIT
TODO:
alpha
ia64
parisc
tile
Done:
arm
arm64
mips
powerpc
s390
sparc
x86
Not possible:
arc
avr32
blackfin
c6x
cris
frv
hexagon
m32r
m68k
metag
microblaze
mn10300
nios2
openrisc
score
sh
um
unicore32
xtensa
After all, the point of this document isn't to look at, it's to use as a
TODO list and actively edit. So anything that makes it prettier but
more painful to edit seems like a bug.

Just tried this. Looks like it's pretty trivial for most of these
features: just make ARCH=thearch allyesconfig, then look for the config
symbol in the result.
For instance, after doing "make ARCH=alpha allyesconfig":
~/src/linux$ grep -x 'CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE=y' .config || echo TODO
TODO
~/src/linux$ grep -x 'CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS=y' .config || echo TODO
CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS=y
This seems easy to turn into a shell script or Python script, given a list of
feature descriptions and corresponding config symbols, as well as a list of
architectures.

me2. The patch conflicts are going to be pretty bad.
I'd also prefer a format which allows us to add useful notes - it's a
bit hostile to say "thou shalt implement X" without providing any info
about how to do so. Where do we tell maintainers that there's a handy
test app in tools/testing/selftests which they should use?
This way, I can bug patch submitters with "hey, you forgot to update
Documentation/arch-features.txt" and they will add useful info while
it's all still hot in their minds.
And there's a ton of stuff which can go in here, much of it not
immediately apparent.
Just grepping 9 months worth of the stuff I've handled, I'm seeing
things like
HAVE_ARCH_KASAN
__HAVE_ARCH_PMDP_SPLITTING_FLUSH
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL
__HAVE_ARCH_GATE_AREA
ARCH_HAVE_ELF_ASLR

which is going to be hard to grep for....
ugh, this thing's going to be enormous. People will go insane reading
it, so each section should have a sentence describing what the feature
does so maintainers can make quick decisions about whether they should
bother.

drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:lookup_addr() has a reference to do_fork().
Doesn't link, with a basic `make allmodconfig'.

Odd; not sure how it built with allyesconfig at the time (which I did
test).
However, dropping the #ifndef is the wrong fix. do_fork will go away
*completely* once all architectures opt into
CONFIG_HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS, and architectures that opt in won't pass
through do_fork. kgdb wants to capture forks, so it wants _do_fork.
The right fix is to make _do_fork non-static (which makes me sad, but oh
well), and make kgdb reference _do_fork instead of do_fork (though the
string should remain "do_fork" for compatibility):
Here's an incremental patch for that, to be squashed into the first of
the two patches per your standard procedure for -mm; does this fix the
issue you observed?

Subject: [PATCH] Fix "clone: Support passing tls argument via C rather than pt_regs magic" for kgdb
Should be squashed into "clone: Support passing tls argument via C
rather than pt_regs magic". kgdb wants to reference the real fork
function, which is now _do_fork.

Regarding that one specifically, as far as I can see,
HAVE_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING is only relevant for tick-based time
accounting. If you have CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING you get accurate
irq time accounting with or without HAVE_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING. So how
about making this one:
irq time acct: HAVE_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING || VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING
That would make the "irq time acct" entry for powerpc be "ok".

There is another reason for the transposed version, which is that it
makes adding features to the list much easier. At the same time, plain
ASCII is horrific for maintaining tables...

Ok, agreed, I've solved these problems by creating a per feature

So this does not appear to be a feature per se: architectures that
don't define __HAVE_ARCH_GATE_AREA fall back to the generic one. Or is
it expected for every architecture to provide its own?

Does not seem to be upstream.

Yeah, that's already included in v6.

So AFAICS this feature is an arch opt-in, on the basis of whether GCC
does the right thing or not.
We'd need a separate config switch: ARCH_DONT_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP to
make a distinction between architectures that have made an informed
decision to not support it, versus architectures that have not
bothered so far.

So this isn't really a feature, but a facility that an architecture

moment.

Not upstream yet it appears.

So this too is a quirk, for PowerPC, which does not maintain the

So this is a generic, RCU based fast-GUP facility - but architectures
may implement their own get_user_pages_fast() facilites, such as x86
which does it lock-less.
So I'm not sure what to flag here: perhaps architectures that don't
offer get_user_pages_fast() at all?
> HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE
So this is related to HAVE_GENERIC_RCU_GUP: architectures that do RCU
based GUP will want to use HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE.

double ;-)

So I think the generic clock framework first needs to be integrated
with core timekeeping before we start requiring it from architectures.

Hm, yes. If you give me a rough list then I can try to map them out as
well.
Once we have the initial feature collection done it will be a lot
easier going forward: anything missing or inaccurate can be added to
or fixed in its own file.

Add arch support matrices for more than 40 generic kernel features
that need per architecture support.
Each feature has its own directory under Documentation/features/feature_name/,
and the arch-support.txt file shows its current arch porting status.
For example, lockdep support is shown the following way:
triton:~/tip> cat Documentation/features/lockdep/arch-support.txt
#
# Feature name: lockdep
# Kconfig: LOCKDEP_SUPPORT
# description: arch supports the runtime locking correctness debug facility
#

-----------------------
For generic kernel features that need architecture support, the
arch-support.txt file in each feature directory shows the arch
support matrix, for all upstream Linux architectures.
The meaning of entries in the tables is:
| ok | # feature supported by the architecture
|TODO| # feature not yet supported by the architecture
| .. | # feature cannot be supported by the hardware
This directory structure can be used in the future to add other
files - such as porting guides, testing description, etc.
The Documentation/features/ hierarchy may also include generic
kernel features that works on every architecture, in that case
the arch-support.txt file will list every architecture as
supported.
To list an architecture's unsupported features, just do something
like:
$ git grep -lE 'x86.*TODO' Documentation/features/*/arch-support.txt
Documentation/features/arch-tick-broadcast/arch-support.txt
Documentation/features/strncasecmp/arch-support.txt
which prints the list of features not yet supported by the
architecture.

No, that's not nearly enough to do a correct support matrix, for
example due to subarchitectures that aren't included in an
allyesconfig. There are also many #define driven features.
Thanks,

Still feasible to automate with a bit more scripting.

It'd be nice to move those over to Kconfig.

Another way to visualize the feature support status of an
architecture, would be to use the simple script I've put into
Documentation/features/list-arch.sh:
triton:~/tip> Documentation/features/list-arch.sh

This way we can avoid the conflicts by generating the visualization on

Subject: [PATCH] Documentation/arch: Add kernel feature descriptions and arch support status under Documentation/features/
Add arch support matrices for more than 40 generic kernel features
that need per architecture support.
Each feature has its own directory under Documentation/features/feature_name/,
and the arch-support.txt file shows its current arch porting status.
For example, lockdep support is shown the following way:
triton:~/tip> cat Documentation/features/lockdep/arch-support.txt
#
# Feature name: lockdep
# Kconfig: LOCKDEP_SUPPORT
# description: arch supports the runtime locking correctness debug facility
#

-----------------------
For generic kernel features that need architecture support, the
arch-support.txt file in each feature directory shows the arch
support matrix, for all upstream Linux architectures.
The meaning of entries in the tables is:
| ok | # feature supported by the architecture
|TODO| # feature not yet supported by the architecture
| .. | # feature cannot be supported by the hardware
This directory structure can be used in the future to add other
files - such as porting guides, testing description, etc.
The Documentation/features/ hierarchy may also include generic
kernel features that works on every architecture, in that case
the arch-support.txt file will list every architecture as
supported.
To list an architecture's unsupported features, just do something
like:
$ git grep -lE 'x86.*TODO' Documentation/features/*/arch-support.txt
Documentation/features/arch-tick-broadcast/arch-support.txt
Documentation/features/strncasecmp/arch-support.txt
which will print the list of not yet supported features.
The Documentation/features/list-arch.sh script will print the current
support matrix of one architecture:
triton:~/tip> Documentation/features/list-arch.sh
#

I suppose so. Having a great bunch of directories, each containing a
single file is a bit odd.
It would be nice to provide people with commit IDs to look at, but the
IDs won't be known at the time the documentation file is created. We
could provide patch titles.
But still, let's not overdo it - get something in there, see how well
it works, evolve it over time.
I don't think we've heard from any (non-x86) arch maintainers? Do they
consider this useful at all? Poke.

So I tried to limit the list of features to those that represent the
overall progress of the generic kernel and are recommended on all
architectures that are able to support it.
There are certainly features that are opt-in. We could still list them
here as well, because this is a convenient central index, but would
mark them not with 'TODO' but with a low-key '..' marking?
On the other end of the spectrum we could also define 'must have'
features for new architectures. For example modern-timekeeping and
clockevents.
The patch that adds a new architecture to all these files would give
us a good overview about how complete an initial port is.

It's a starting point and nicely extensible. I was thinking about one
more intermediate level:
Documentation/features/locking/lockdep/
Documentation/features/locking/rwsem-optimized/
Documentation/features/locking/queued-rwlocks/
Documentation/features/locking/queued-spinlocks/
...
Documentation/features/vm/PG_uncached/
Documentation/features/vm/pmdp_splitting_flush/
Documentation/features/vm/pte_special/
...
The advantage of this, beyond more structure, would be that I'd
probably move most of the Documentation/locking/*.txt files into
Documentation/features/locking/, for example lockdep-design.txt would
go into Documentation/features/locking/lockdep/.
I'd keep the hierarchy at a predictable depth though, i.e.:
Documentation/features/<subsystem>/<feature_name>/

I think we god some feedback from the PowerPC side, but yeah, would be
nice to get more reactions.

Hi Ingo,
Thanks for this. The concept is certainly good.

If you want to test how hard that is (and what sort of patch it
produces), the h8300 architecture was added to linux-next recently.

+1 on patch titles.

Yes it is. I have my own version I've cobbled together for powerpc, but this is
much better.
I'd like to see more description in the individual files of what the feature
is, and preferably some pointers to what's needed to implement it.
The kconfig for HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER is a good example of what I mean.
I realise retrofitting that for all these existing features is quite time
consuming, but for new features hopefully the bar can be raised a little in
terms of that description.

Yeah, so I tried to add a short description to the feature file
itself, and for many of these features that single sentence is the
only documentation we have in the kernel source ...
More comprehensive description can be added both to the Kconfig and to
the feature description as well, by the maintainers of the individual
features.

Yes, that's a positive example. It's the exception.

Yeah.

So I've implemented this, the high level structure now looks like

Seems to work out well.

It looks good except for:

I don't see an rwsem.h in powerpc anywhere?
And this is correct but a bit confusing:
> irq-time-acct: | ok | HAVE_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING # arch supports precise IRQ time accounting
I think you and Paul agreed it's "ok" on powerpc because we have
VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING instead, but that's not obvious.

Yep, so that's better than what we had, and we can always improve it.

Indeed, that slipped through. I fixed it to:

Ok, so I modified it to print '..' instead:
triton:~/tip> cat Documentation/features/time/irq-time-acct/arch-support.txt

i.e. it's not marked as TODO, but not as supported either which would
be misleading.

This seems to have slowed down a bit; I've taken the liberty of pulling it
into the docs tree. It can be replaced, though, should you decide to
completely rework the format again...:)

Please don't, I've got a different structure for it, so that the Git
log becomes a lot more usable. I'll post it after the weekend.

OK, fine, dropped.

Thanks!
A week late but I managed to complete it all and moved it into Git, for better
structure and easy pulling.
Changes relative to the last submission:
- Added higher level subsystem directories to collect features by
subsystem:
triton:~/tip> ls Documentation/features/
arch-support.txt core debug io lib list-arch.sh locking perf sched seccomp time vm
each subsystem directory contains the feature directories. For example locking
has:
triton:~/tip> ls Documentation/features/locking/
cmpxchg-local lockdep queued-rwlocks queued-spinlocks rwsem-optimized
It's all pretty straightforward to navigate. Advantages are better
visualization, plus git log is able to list changes per subsystem.
- Prettified the visualization some more.
- Improved/corrected the support matrices based on feedback to earlier submissions.
- Updated the support matrices to today's linux-next, so that by the time this
shows up in upstream in the next merge window it's really recent.
Most notably there's a new architecture in linux-next (h8300).
This structure should address all feedback that I got and should minimize the
maintenance overhead (chance of conflicts).
Please pull it all from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git core/documentation
# HEAD: ce2073b138515f2da6bebf62277c8d069d1c9589 Documentation/features: Explain kernel feature descriptions and add visualization script
The -tip commits should appear soon as well, if anyone would like to take a look
at the individual patches.
There's also a combo patch attached to this mail.
Thanks!
