[PATCH v4 02/12] riscv: Use IPIs for remote cache/TLB flushes by default
From: Samuel Holland
Date: Tue Jan 02 2024 - 17:05:12 EST
An IPI backend is always required in an SMP configuration, but an SBI
implementation is not. For example, SBI will be unavailable when the
kernel runs in M mode.
Generally, IPIs are assumed to be faster than SBI calls due to the SBI
context switch overhead. However, when SBI is used as the IPI backend,
then the context switch cost must be paid anyway, and performing the
cache/TLB flush directly in the SBI implementation is more efficient
than inserting an interrupt to the kernel. This is the only scenario
where riscv_ipi_set_virq_range()'s use_for_rfence parameter is false.
Thus, it makes sense for remote fences to use IPIs by default, and make
the SBI remote fence extension the special case.
sbi_ipi_init() already checks riscv_ipi_have_virq_range(), so it only
calls riscv_ipi_set_virq_range() when no other IPI device is available.
So we can move the static key and drop the use_for_rfence parameter.
Furthermore, the static branch only makes sense when CONFIG_RISCV_SBI is
enabled. Optherwise, IPIs must be used. Add a fallback definition of
riscv_use_sbi_for_rfence() which handles this case and removes the need
to check CONFIG_RISCV_SBI elsewhere, such as in cacheflush.c.
