Subject: [PATCH] mm/debug: add a cast to u64 for atomic64_read()

atomic64_read() on ppc64le returns "long int", so fix the same way as
the commit d549f545e690 ("drm/virtio: use %llu format string form
atomic64_t") by adding a cast to u64, which makes it work on all arches.

Not saying this patch shouldn't go ahead..

But is there a special reason the atomic64*'s on ppc don't use the u64
type like other archs? Seems like a better thing to fix than adding
casts all over the place.

Agreed in principle, but I'd note that it's not just ppc64, but almost all
64-bit architectures. x86-64 and arm64 changed over last year
from returning 'long' to 'long long', apparently as an unintended
side effect of commits 8bf705d13039 ("locking/atomic/x86: Switch
atomic.h to use atomic-instrumented.h") and c0df10812835 ("arm64,
locking/atomics: Use instrumented atomics").

It would be nice to just do the instrumented atomics on all 64-bit
architectures for consistency, but that would be a lot of work, and
would not actually give us additional instrumentation on most of them,
since they don't support KASAN (except s390).

Ah, I had already forgotten about that discussion.

At least the atomic_long part we discussed there has been resolved now
as part of commit b5d47ef9ea5c ("locking/atomics: Switch to generated
atomic-long").

Adding Mark Rutland to Cc, maybe he has some ideas of how to use
the infrastructure he added to use consistent types for atomic64()
on the remaining 64-bit architectures.

s64 if anything, atomic stuff is signed (although since we have -fwrapv
it doesn't matter one whit).

A quick count shows there's only 5 definitions of atomic64_t in the
tree, it would be trivial to align them on type.

$ git grep "} atomic64_t"
arch/arc/include/asm/atomic.h:} atomic64_t;
arch/arm/include/asm/atomic.h:} atomic64_t;
arch/x86/include/asm/atomic64_32.h:} atomic64_t;
include/asm-generic/atomic64.h:} atomic64_t;
include/linux/types.h:} atomic64_t;

Note that the one used in _most_ cases, is the one from linux/types.h,
and that is using 'long'. The others, all typically on ILP32 platforms,
obviously must use long long.

I have no objection to changing the types.h one to long long or all of
them to s64. It really shouldn't matter at all.

Right, that would make sense as well.

I thiunk it needs an '__attribute__((aligned(8)))' annotation at least on
x86-32, but it should be harmless to do that everywhere. The
32-bit architectures of course already use a 'long long' base type
(unsigned long long on x86 and arc), but we'd still need to
change all the 64-bit architectures to consistently use s64
in their implementation. This would be the majority of the work, e.g.

arch/powerpc/include/asm/atomic.h:
static __inline__ void atomic64_##op(long a, atomic64_t *v) \

arch/riscv/include/asm/atomic.h
static __always_inline \
c_type atomic##prefix##_fetch_##op(c_type i, atomic##prefix##_t *v) \

arch/sparc/include/asm/atomic_64.h:
long atomic64_##op##_return(long, atomic64_t *);

arch/s390/include/asm/atomic.h:
static inline void atomic64_##op(long i, atomic64_t *v) \

arch/mips/include/asm/atomic.h:
static __inline__ void atomic64_##op(long i, atomic64_t * v) \

arch/ia64/include/asm/atomic.h:
static __inline__ long \
ia64_atomic64_##op (__s64 i, atomic64_t *v) \

arch/alpha/include/asm/atomic.h:
static __inline__ void atomic64_##op(long i, atomic64_t * v) \

arch/parisc/include/asm/atomic.h:
static __inline__ s64 atomic64_##op##_return(s64 i, atomic64_t *v) \

The problem is not that any of those would be hard to change,
it's more that there are so many functions across 10 architectures,
and everything has some subtle differences somewhere.

It would be tempting to use scripts/atomic/* to generate more of
the code in a consistent way, but that is likely to be even more
work and more error-prone at the start.

I _hate_ that s64 isn't already natively aligned.

Anyway, yes, unaligned atomics are a _bad_ idea if they work at all.

Those scripts can't do actual implementations, which is the problem here
I think. The architectures really need to implement a whole bunch of
stuff themselves.

I think that using s64 consistently (with any necessary alignment
annotation) makes the most sense. That's unambigious, and what the
common headers now use.

Now that the scripted atomics are merged, I'd like to move arches over
to arch_atomic_*(), so the argument and return types will become s64
everywhere.

Thanks,
Mark.

Yes, that sounds like the easiest way, especially if we don't touch the
internal implementation but simply rename all the symbols provided
by the architectures. Is that what you had in mind, or would you go
beyond the minimum changes here?

I'd expected to convert arches one-by-one, updating the types during
conversion. I guess it's not strictly necessary to change the internal
types, but it would seem nicer to do that.

I don't think it's possible to do that rename right now, unless we do it
treewide. There are a few core things that need to be fixed up first,
e.g. making <asm-generic/atomic{,64}.h> play nicely with
<asm-generic/atomic-instrumented.h>.

In the end, what I'd like to get to is:

* Arch code provids arch_atomic*_*().

* Common code fleshes out the entire API as raw_atomic*_*(), build atop
of arch_atomic*_*(). All the ifdeffery lives here.

* Common code builds the instrumented atomic*_*() API atop of the
