riastradh | paravirt_membar_sync(9): New memory barrier.
For use in paravirtualized drivers which require store-before-load
ordering -- irrespective of whether the kernel is built for a single
processor, or whether the (virtual) machine is booted with a single
processor.
This is even required on architectures that don't even have a
store-before-load ordering barrier, like m68k; adding, e.g., a virtio
bus is _as if_ the architecture has been extended with relaxed memory
ordering when talking with that new bus. Such architectures need
some way to request the hypervisor enforce that ordering -- on m68k,
that's done by issuing a CASL instruction, which qemu maps to an
atomic r/m/w with sequential consistency ordering in the host.

riastradh | xen: Don't hotpatch away LOCK prefix in xen_mb, even on UP boots.
Both xen_mb and membar_sync are designed to provide store-before-load
ordering, but xen_mb has to provide it in synchronizing guest with
hypervisor, while membar_sync only has to provide it in synchronizing
one (guest) CPU with another (guest) CPU.
It is safe to hotpatch away the LOCK prefix in membar_sync on a
uniprocessor boot because membar_sync is only designed to coordinate
between normal memory on multiple CPUs, and is never necessary when
there's only one CPU involved.
But xen_mb is used to coordinate between the guest and the `device'
implemented by a hypervisor, which might be running on another
_physical_ CPU even if the NetBSD guest only sees one `CPU', i.e.,
one _virtual_ CPU. So even on `uniprocessor' boots, xen_mb must
still issue an instruction with store-before-load ordering on
multiprocessor systems, such as a LOCK ADD (or MFENCE, but MFENCE is
costlier for no benefit here).
No need to change xen_wmb (release ordering, load/store-before-store)
or xen_rmb (acquire ordering, load-before-load/store) because every
x86 store is a store-release and every x86 load is a load-acquire,
even on multiprocessor systems, so there's no hotpatching involved
anyway.

x86: Eliminate mfence hotpatch for membar_sync.
The more-compatible LOCK ADD $0,-N(%rsp) turns out to be cheaper
than MFENCE anyway. Let's save some space and maintenance and rip
out the hotpatching for it.

riastradh | Introduce membar_acquire/release. Deprecate membar_enter/exit.
The names membar_enter/exit were unclear, and the documentation of
membar_enter has disagreed with the implementations on sparc,
powerpc, and even x86(!) for the entire time it has been in NetBSD.
The terms `acquire' and `release' are ubiquitous in the literature
today, and have been adopted in the C and C++ standards to mean
load-before-load/store and load/store-before-store, respectively,
which are exactly the orderings required by acquiring and releasing a
mutex, as well as other useful applications like decrementing a
reference count and then freeing the underlying object if it went to
zero.
Originally I proposed changing one word in the documentation for
membar_enter to make it load-before-load/store instead of
store-before-load/store, i.e., to make it an acquire barrier. I
proposed this on the grounds that
(a) all implementations guarantee load-before-load/store,
(b) some implementations fail to guarantee store-before-load/store,
and
(c) all uses in-tree assume load-before-load/store.
I verified parts (a) and (b) (except, for (a), powerpc didn't even
guarantee load-before-load/store -- isync isn't necessarily enough;
need lwsync in general -- but it _almost_ did, and it certainly didn't
guarantee store-before-load/store).
Part (c) might not be correct, however: under the mistaken assumption
that atomic-r/m/w then membar-w/rw is equivalent to atomic-r/m/w then
membar-r/rw, I only audited the cases of membar_enter that _aren't_
immediately after an atomic-r/m/w. All of those cases assume
load-before-load/store. But my assumption was wrong -- there are
cases of atomic-r/m/w then membar-w/rw that would be broken by
changing to atomic-r/m/w then membar-r/rw:
https://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-kern/2022/03/29/msg028044.html
Furthermore, the name membar_enter has been adopted in other places
like OpenBSD where it actually does follow the documentation and
guarantee store-before-load/store, even if that order is not useful.
So the name membar_enter currently lives in a bad place where it
means either of two things -- r/rw or w/rw.
With this change, we deprecate membar_enter/exit, introduce
membar_acquire/release as better names for the useful pair (r/rw and
rw/w), and make sure the implementation of membar_enter guarantees
both what was documented _and_ what was implemented, making it an
alias for membar_sync.
While here, rework all of the membar_* definitions and aliases. The
new logic follows a rule to make it easier to audit:
membar_X is defined as an alias for membar_Y iff membar_X is
guaranteed by membar_Y.
The `no stronger than' relation is (the transitive closure of):
- membar_consumer (r/r) is guaranteed by membar_acquire (r/rw)
- membar_producer (w/w) is guaranteed by membar_release (rw/w)
- membar_acquire (r/rw) is guaranteed by membar_sync (rw/rw)
- membar_release (rw/w) is guaranteed by membar_sync (rw/rw)
And, for the deprecated membars:
- membar_enter (whether r/rw, w/rw, or rw/rw) is guaranteed by
membar_sync (rw/rw)
- membar_exit (rw/w) is guaranteed by membar_release (rw/w)
(membar_exit is identical to membar_release, but the name is
deprecated.)
Finally, while here, annotate some of the instructions with their
semantics. For powerpc, leave an essay with citations on the
unfortunate but -- as far as I can tell -- necessary decision to use
lwsync, not isync, for membar_acquire and membar_consumer.
Also add membar(3) and atomic(3) man page links.

riastradh | i386/membar_ops: Upgrade membar_enter from R/RW to RW/RW.
This will be deprecated soon but let's avoid leaving rakes to trip on
with it arising from disagreement over the documentation (W/RW) and
implementation and usage (R/RW).

|
| 1.32 | 09-Apr-2022 |
riastradh | x86: Omit needless store in membar_producer/exit.
On x86, every store is a store-release, so there is no need for any
barrier. But this wasn't a barrier anyway; it was just a store,
which was redundant with the store of the return address to the stack
implied by CALL even if issuing a store made a difference.
|
| 1.31 | 09-Apr-2022 |
riastradh | x86: Every load is a load-acquire, so membar_consumer is a noop.
lfence is only needed for MD logic, such as operations on I/O memory
rather than normal cacheable memory, or special instructions like
RDTSC -- never for MI synchronization between threads/CPUs. No need
for hot-patching to do lfence here.
(The x86_lfence function might reasonably be patched on i386 to do
lfence for MD logic, but it isn't now and this doesn't change that.)

one (guest) CPU with another (guest) CPU.
It is safe to hotpatch away the LOCK prefix in membar_sync on a

between normal memory on multiple CPUs, and is never necessary when
there's only one CPU involved.
But xen_mb is used to coordinate between the guest and the `device'
implemented by a hypervisor, which might be running on another
_physical_ CPU even if the NetBSD guest only sees one `CPU', i.e.,
one _virtual_ CPU. So even on `uniprocessor' boots, xen_mb must
still issue an instruction with store-before-load ordering on
multiprocessor systems, such as a LOCK ADD (or MFENCE, but MFENCE is
costlier for no benefit here).
No need to change xen_wmb (release ordering, load/store-before-store)
or xen_rmb (acquire ordering, load-before-load/store) because every
x86 store is a store-release and every x86 load is a load-acquire,
even on multiprocessor systems, so there's no hotpatching involved
anyway.
