[PATCH -next v5 00/22] arm64: entry: Convert to generic entry

From: Jinjie Ruan
Date: Fri Dec 06 2024 - 05:25:00 EST


Currently, x86, Riscv, Loongarch use the generic entry. Convert arm64
to use the generic entry infrastructure from kernel/entry/*. The generic
entry makes maintainers' work easier and codes more elegant, which aslo
removed a lot of duplicate code.

The main steps are as follows:
- Make arm64 easier to use irqentry_enter/exit().
- Make arm64 closer to the PREEMPT_DYNAMIC code of generic entry.
- Split generic entry into generic irq entry and generic syscall to
make the single patch more concentrated in switching to one thing.
- Switch to generic irq entry.
- Make arm64 closer to the generic syscall code.
- Switch to generic entry completely.

Changes in v5:
- Not change arm32 and keep inerrupts_enabled() macro for gicv3 driver.
- Move irqentry_state definition into arch/arm64/kernel/entry-common.c.
- Avoid removing the __enter_from_*() and __exit_to_*() wrappers.
- Update "irqentry_state_t ret/irq_state" to "state"
to keep it consistently.
- Use generic irq entry header for PREEMPT_DYNAMIC after split
the generic entry.
- Also refactor the ARM64 syscall code.
- Introduce arch_ptrace_report_syscall_entry/exit(), instead of
arch_pre/post_report_syscall_entry/exit() to simplify code.
- Make the syscall patches clear separation.
- Update the commit message.

Changes in v4:
- Rework/cleanup split into a few patches as Mark suggested.
- Replace interrupts_enabled() macro with regs_irqs_disabled(), instead
of left it here.
- Remove rcu and lockdep state in pt_regs by using temporary
irqentry_state_t as Mark suggested.
- Remove some unnecessary intermediate functions to make it clear.
- Rework preempt irq and PREEMPT_DYNAMIC code
to make the switch more clear.
- arch_prepare_*_entry/exit() -> arch_pre_*_entry/exit().
- Expand the arch functions comment.
- Make arch functions closer to its caller.
- Declare saved_reg in for block.
- Remove arch_exit_to_kernel_mode_prepare(), arch_enter_from_kernel_mode().
- Adjust "Add few arch functions to use generic entry" patch to be
the penultimate.
- Update the commit message.
- Add suggested-by.

Changes in v3:
- Test the MTE test cases.
- Handle forget_syscall() in arch_post_report_syscall_entry()
- Make the arch funcs not use __weak as Thomas suggested, so move
the arch funcs to entry-common.h, and make arch_forget_syscall() folded
in arch_post_report_syscall_entry() as suggested.
- Move report_single_step() to thread_info.h for arm64
- Change __always_inline() to inline, add inline for the other arch funcs.
- Remove unused signal.h for entry-common.h.
- Add Suggested-by.
- Update the commit message.

Changes in v2:
- Add tested-by.
- Fix a bug that not call arch_post_report_syscall_entry() in
syscall_trace_enter() if ptrace_report_syscall_entry() return not zero.
- Refactor report_syscall().
- Add comment for arch_prepare_report_syscall_exit().
- Adjust entry-common.h header file inclusion to alphabetical order.
- Update the commit message.
