Merge tag 'asm-generic-5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic
Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann: "The asm-generic tree contains three separate changes for linux-5.19: - The h8300 architecture is retired after it has been effectively unmaintained for a number of years. This is the last architecture we supported that has no MMU implementation, but there are still a few architectures (arm, m68k, riscv, sh and xtensa) that support CPUs with and without an MMU. - A series to add a generic ticket spinlock that can be shared by most architectures with a working cmpxchg or ll/sc type atomic, including the conversion of riscv, csky and openrisc. This series is also a prerequisite for the loongarch64 architecture port that will come as a separate pull request. - A cleanup of some exported uapi header files to ensure they can be included from user space without relying on other kernel headers" * tag 'asm-generic-5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic: h8300: remove stale bindings and symlink sparc: add asm/stat.h to UAPI compile-test coverage powerpc: add asm/stat.h to UAPI compile-test coverage mips: add asm/stat.h to UAPI compile-test coverage riscv: add linux/bpf_perf_event.h to UAPI compile-test coverage kbuild: prevent exported headers from including <stdlib.h>, <stdbool.h> agpgart.h: do not include <stdlib.h> from exported header csky: Move to generic ticket-spinlock RISC-V: Move to queued RW locks RISC-V: Move to generic spinlocks openrisc: Move to ticket-spinlock asm-generic: qrwlock: Document the spinlock fairness requirements asm-generic: qspinlock: Indicate the use of mixed-size atomics asm-generic: ticket-lock: New generic ticket-based spinlock remove the h8300 architecture

/*
* Queued spinlock
*
+ * A 'generic' spinlock implementation that is based on MCS locks. For an
+ * architecture that's looking for a 'generic' spinlock, please first consider
+ * ticket-lock.h and only come looking here when you've considered all the
+ * constraints below and can show your hardware does actually perform better
+ * with qspinlock.
+ *
+ * qspinlock relies on atomic_*_release()/atomic_*_acquire() to be RCsc (or no
+ * weaker than RCtso if you're power), where regular code only expects atomic_t
+ * to be RCpc.
+ *
+ * qspinlock relies on a far greater (compared to asm-generic/spinlock.h) set
+ * of atomic operations to behave well together, please audit them carefully to
+ * ensure they all have forward progress. Many atomic operations may default to
+ * cmpxchg() loops which will not have good forward progress properties on
+ * LL/SC architectures.
+ *
+ * One notable example is atomic_fetch_or_acquire(), which x86 cannot (cheaply)
+ * do. Carefully read the patches that introduced
+ * queued_fetch_set_pending_acquire().
+ *
+ * qspinlock also heavily relies on mixed size atomic operations, in specific
+ * it requires architectures to have xchg16; something which many LL/SC
+ * architectures need to implement as a 32bit and+or in order to satisfy the
+ * forward progress guarantees mentioned above.
+ *
+ * Further reading on mixed size atomics that might be relevant:
+ *
+ * http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~pes20/popl17/mixed-size.pdf

- * You need to implement asm/spinlock.h for SMP support. The generic
- * version does not handle SMP.
+ * 'Generic' ticket-lock implementation.
+ *
+ * It relies on atomic_fetch_add() having well defined forward progress
+ * guarantees under contention. If your architecture cannot provide this, stick
+ * to a test-and-set lock.
+ *
+ * It also relies on atomic_fetch_add() being safe vs smp_store_release() on a
+ * sub-word of the value. This is generally true for anything LL/SC although
+ * you'd be hard pressed to find anything useful in architecture specifications
+ * about this. If your architecture cannot do this you might be better off with
+ * a test-and-set.
+ *
+ * It further assumes atomic_*_release() + atomic_*_acquire() is RCpc and hence
+ * uses atomic_fetch_add() which is RCsc to create an RCsc hot path, along with
+ * a full fence after the spin to upgrade the otherwise-RCpc
+ * atomic_cond_read_acquire().
+ *
+ * The implementation uses smp_cond_load_acquire() to spin, so if the
+ * architecture has WFE like instructions to sleep instead of poll for word
+ * modifications be sure to implement that (see ARM64 for example).
