Subject: [RFCv2 05/10] x86/mm: Provide untagged_addr() helper

The helper used by the core-mm to strip tag bits and get the address to
the canonical shape. In only handles userspace addresses.

For LAM, the address gets sanitized according to the thread features.

That needs a _BIT suffix or something, same in the previous reply.

Assuming you got your bits in hardware order:

u64 __addr = addr;
if ((s64)__addr >= 0) {
int lam = (current->thread.features >> X86_THREAD_LAM_U57) & 3;
if (lam)
__addr &= sign_extend64(__addr, 65 - 9*lam);
}
__addr;

has less branches on and should definitely result in better code (or I
need more morning juice).

How is this supposed to be correct? This sign extends based on bit 47
resp. 56, i.e. the topmost bit of the userspace address space for the
LAM mode.

So if that bit _is_ set, then the result has bit 48-63 resp. 57-63 set
as well. Not really what you want, right?

This has to mask out bit 48-62 resp. 57-62 and leave all other bits
alone.

So this wants something like this:

#define untagged_addr(addr) ({ \
u64 __addr = (__force u64)(addr); \
\
__addr &= current->thread.lam_untag_mask; \
(__force __typeof__(addr))__addr; \
})

No conditionals, fast _and_ correct. Setting this untag mask up once
when LAM is enabled is not rocket science.

that needs to be

__sign &= ~lam_untag_mask;

For the price of a conditional:

__addr &= lam_untag_mask;
if (__addr & BIT(63))
__addr |= ~lam_untag_mask;

Now you have the choice between gross and ugly.

Are there any of those left?
Most will have gone with setfs(KERNEL_DS) removal.
Almost all code has to know whether an address is user
or kernel - the value can't be used because of architectures
that use the same address values in user and kernel.

How often do addresses actually need de-tagging?
Probably only code that is looking for page table
entries for virtual addresses?
How often does that happen for user addresses?

If the hardware is ignoring the bits then you don't
need to remove them before memory accesses.
That would include all userspace accesses.
Clearly access_ok() has to work with tagged addresses,
but that doesn't require the tag be masked off.
It can just check the transfer doesn't cross 1u<<63.
It (probably) just requires the fault handler to treat
non-canonical address faults as page faults.

But that goes wrong if someone ever wants to untag a kernel address and
not use the result for access_ok().

I'd feel better about something like:

s64 __addr = (addr);
s64 __sign = __addr;

__sign >>= 63;
__sign &= lam_untag_mask;
__addr &= lam_untag_mask;
__addr |= __sign;

__addr;

Which simply extends bit 63 downwards -- although possibly there's an
easier way to do that, this is pretty gross.

Though we can also replace your flavour of gross with a different
flavour of gross:

s64 sign = (s64)(addr) >> 63;

addr ^= sign;
addr &= mask;
addr ^= sign;

After twisting my brain around replacing gross by something differently
gross and coming up with the gem above I actually did compile the
variants and discovered that GCC compiles your flavour of gross exactly
to this:

mov %rdi,%rax
sar $0x3f,%rax
xor %rax,%rdi
and %rsi,%rdi
xor %rdi,%rax

I have to admit that compilers are sometimes pretty smart. I might have
to rethink my prejudice. :)

But then clang converts your flavour of 'gross' to:

mov %rsi,%rax
mov %rsi,%rcx
and %rdi,%rax
sar $0x3f,%rdi
not %rcx
and %rdi,%rcx
or %rcx,%rax

and my explicit flavour to:

mov %rdi,%rax
mov %rdi,%rcx
sar $0x3f,%rcx
xor %rcx,%rax
and %rsi,%rax
xor %rcx,%rax

which is at least slightly less retarted, but still has a pointless mov
there. Note, that this was compiled in user space with noinline
functions. I did some inlined variants as well and clang still insists
on using an extra register for no obvious reason. This might be more
efficient in reality, but I haven't bothered to write a test which
might give an answer via perf.

The ugly with the conditional resolves for both compilers to:

mov %rsi,%rax
mov %rsi,%rcx
not %rcx
or %rdi,%rcx
and %rdi,%rax
test %rdi,%rdi
cmovs %rcx,%rax

At least they agree on that one.

But whatever we chose, it's sad, that we need to have support for
interfaces which swallow any pointer (user or kernel) because otherwise
this really boils down to a single OR resp. AND operation plus the
according mov to retrieve the mask.
