[RFC 03/12] sh: remove unaligned access for sh4a

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Fri May 07 2021 - 18:10:29 EST


From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

Unlike every other architecture, sh4a uses an inline asm implementation
for get_unaligned(). I have shown that this produces better object
code than the asm-generic version. However, there are very few users of
arch/sh/ overall, and most of those seem to use sh4 rather than sh4a CPU
cores, so it seems not worth keeping the complexity in the architecture
independent code.

Change over to the generic version to allow simplifying that in a
follow-up patch.

If there are sh4a users that want the best performance, it would probably
be best to add support for the movua instruction in gcc itself, as this
would not just help get_unaligned() callers but any code that accesses
a __packed variable in user space or kernel.

- * SH-4A has support for unaligned 32-bit loads, and 32-bit loads only.
- * Support for 64-bit accesses are done through shifting and masking
- * relative to the endianness. Unaligned stores are not supported by the
- * instruction encoding, so these continue to use the packed
- * struct.
- *
- * The same note as with the movli.l/movco.l pair applies here, as long
- * as the load is guaranteed to be inlined, nothing else will hook in to
- * r0 and we get the return value for free.
- *
- * NOTE: Due to the fact we require r0 encoding, care should be taken to
- * avoid mixing these heavily with other r0 consumers, such as the atomic
- * ops. Failure to adhere to this can result in the compiler running out
- * of spill registers and blowing up when building at low optimization
- * levels. See http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34777.
