The kernel runs in M-mode without using page tables, and thus can't run
bare metal without help from additional firmware.
Most of the patch is just stubbing out code not needed without page
tables, but there is an interesting detail in the signals implementation:
- The normal RISC-V syscall ABI only implements rt_sigreturn as VDSO
entry point, but the ELF VDSO is not supported for nommu Linux.
We instead copy the code to call the syscall onto the stack.
In addition to enabling the nommu code a new defconfig for a small
kernel image that can run in nommu mode on qemu is also provided, to run
a kernel in qemu you can use the following command line:
qemu-system-riscv64 -smp 2 -m 64 -machine virt -nographic \
-kernel arch/riscv/boot/loader \
-drive file=rootfs.ext2,format=raw,id=hd0 \
-device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd0

Remove a confusing comment on our local_flush_tlb_all()
implementation. Per an internal discussion with Andrew, while it's
true that the fence.i is not necessary, it's not the case that an
sfence.vma implies a fence.i. We also drop the section about
"flush[ing] the entire local TLB" to better align with the language in
section 4.2.1 "Supervisor Memory-Management Fence Instruction" of the
RISC-V Privileged Specification v20190608.

The RISC-V kernel implementation of flush_tlb_page() when CONFIG_SMP
is set is wrong. It passes zero to flush_tlb_range() as the final
address to flush, but it should be at least 'addr'.
Some other Linux architecture ports use the beginning address to
flush, plus PAGE_SIZE, as the final address to flush. This might
flush slightly more than what's needed, but it seems unlikely that
being more clever would improve anything. So let's just take that
implementation for now.
While here, convert the macro into a static inline function, primarily
to avoid unintentional multiple evaluations of 'addr'.
This second version of the patch fixes a coding style issue found by
Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>.

sbi_remote_sfence_vma() & sbi_remote_fence_i() takes
a pointer as first argument but some macros call them with
a plain 0 which, while legal C, is frowned upon in the kernel.
Change this by replacing the 0 by NULL.

RISC-V systems perform TLB shootdows via the SBI, which currently
performs an IPI to each of the remote harts which then performs a local
TLB flush. This process is a bit on the slow side, but we can at least
speed it up for some common cases by restricting the set of harts to
shoot down to the actual set of harts that are currently participating
in the given mm context, as opposed to the entire system.
This should provide a measurable performance increase, but we haven't
measured it. Regardless, it seems like obviously the right thing to do
here.

This merge contains the user-visible, ABI-breaking changes that we want
to make sure we have in Linux before our first release. Highlights
include:
* VDSO entries for clock_get/gettimeofday/getcpu have been added. These
are simple syscalls now, but we want to let glibc use them from the
start so we can make them faster later.
* A VDSO entry for instruction cache flushing has been added so
userspace can flush the instruction cache.
* The VDSO symbol versions for __vdso_cmpxchg{32,64} have been removed,
as those VDSO entries don't actually exist.

The RISC-V ISA allows for instruction caches that are not coherent WRT
stores, even on a single hart. As a result, we need to explicitly flush
the instruction cache whenever marking a dirty page as executable in
order to preserve the correct system behavior.
Local instruction caches aren't that scary (our implementations actually
flush the cache, but RISC-V is defined to allow higher-performance
implementations to exist), but RISC-V defines no way to perform an
instruction cache shootdown. When explicitly asked to do so we can
shoot down remote instruction caches via an IPI, but this is a bit on
the slow side.
Instead of requiring an IPI to all harts whenever marking a page as
executable, we simply flush the currently running harts. In order to
maintain correct behavior, we additionally mark every other hart as
needing a deferred instruction cache which will be taken before anything
runs on it.

This is just a comment change, but it's one that bit me on the mailing
list. It turns out that issuing a `sfence.vma` enforces instruction
cache ordering in addition to TLB ordering. This isn't explicitly
called out in the ISA manual, but Andrew will be making that more clear
in a future revision.

This contains all the code that directly interfaces with the RISC-V
memory model. While this code corforms to the current RISC-V ISA
specifications (user 2.2 and priv 1.10), the memory model is somewhat
underspecified in those documents. There is a working group that hopes
to produce a formal memory model by the end of the year, but my
understanding is that the basic definitions we're relying on here won't
change significantly.
