Subject: [PATCH v2 0/5] riscv: add PREEMPT_RT support

This series is to add PREEMPT_RT support to riscv:
patch1 adds the missing number of signal exits in vCPU stat
patch2 switches to the generic guest entry infrastructure
patch3 select HAVE_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK which is a requirement for
RT
patch4 adds lazy preempt support
patch5 allows to enable PREEMPT_RT

I assume patch1, patch2 and patch3 can be reviewed and merged for
riscv-next, patch4 and patch5 can be reviewed and maintained in rt tree,
and finally merged once the remaining patches in rt tree are all
mainlined.

Since v1:
- send to related maillist, I press ENTER too quickly when sending v1
- remove the signal_pending() handling because that's covered by
generic guest entry infrastructure

I would say so, yes.

What about JUMP_LABEL support? Do you halt all CPUs while patching the
code?

FWICT, riscv JUMP_LABEL implementation doesn't rely on stop all cpus while
patching text.

What version of the preempt_rt patch did you test this with?

Maybe I am missing something, but I gave this a whirl with
v6.0-rc3 + v6.0-rc3-rt5 & was meant by a bunch of complaints.
I am not familiar with the preempt_rt patch, so I am not sure what
level of BUG()s or WARNING()s are to be expected, but I saw a fair
few...

Thanks,
Conor.

Could you please provide corresponding log? Usually, this means there's
a bug in related drivers, so it's better to fix them now rather than
wait for RT patches mainlined.

PS: which HW are you using?

I tried it on PolarFire SoC. I know that at least one of the problems
I found is down to drivers - specifically the system controller & hwrng.

The first issue that comes up is in early smp setup code - we call out
to update_siblings_masks() which does an alloc with preemption. It's
the same backtrace from here:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/

I'll give it a run through tonight or tomorrow & give you a full log
of what I saw. There's some splats all over the place for me, but I
can't tell if that's just knock-on from the other issues.

Thanks,
Conor.

Can you tell me, who increased/decreased the PREEMPT_LAZY_COUNT? And
who set NEED_RESCHED_LAZY?

There is "generic" code in the PREEMPT_RT patch doing that. The counter
is incremented/ decremented via preempt_lazy_enable()/disable() and one
of the user is migrate_disable()/enable().
Basically if a task is task_is_realtime() then NEED_RESCHED is set for
the wakeup. For the remaining states (SCHED_OTHER, …) NEED_RESCHED_LAZY
is set for the wakeup. This can be delayed if the task is in a "preempt
disable lazy" section (similar to a preempt_disable() section) but a
task_is_realtime() can still be scheduled if needed.

Okay, It should be [PATCH RT]. RISC-V would also move to GENERIC_ENTRY
[1], so above assembly code would be replaced by generic one, right?

As said in the cover letter, this patch is expected to reviewed and
maintained in RT tree. If your GENERIC_ENTRY patches are merged, I will
send an updated patch.

Maybe TIF_XXX_RESCHED also could be merged into GENERIC_ENTRY, just
like what you've done in syscall.

struct thread_info {
unsigned long flags;
unsigned long syscall_work; /* SYSCALL_WORK_ flags */
+ unsigned long resched_work; /* RESCHED flags */

Or merge them into one:
struct thread_info {
unsigned long flags;
- unsigned long syscall_work; /* SYSCALL_WORK_ flags */
+ unsigned long ge_flags; /* GENERIC_ENTRY flags */

There's other stuff that goes awry later on too:

The SDHCI stuff I am seeing without rt & in v6.1-rc4 so is
unrelated, but the rest resembles what I saw previously.
idk anything about -rt so if there's something blatant that
I've missed here, please lmk.

I tested the last two patches on a StarFive VisionFive V2 (DT) board
