[PATCH v3 1/2] powerpc/uaccess: Use flexible addressing with __put_user()/__get_user()

Wed Aug 12 22:25:16 AEST 2020


At the time being, __put_user()/__get_user() and friends only use
D-form addressing, with 0 offset. Ex:

	lwz	reg1, 0(reg2)

Give the compiler the opportunity to use other adressing modes
whenever possible, to get more optimised code.

Hereunder is a small exemple:

struct test {
	u32 item1;
	u16 item2;
	u8 item3;
	u64 item4;
};

int set_test_user(struct test __user *from, struct test __user *to)
{
	int err;
	u32 item1;
	u16 item2;
	u8 item3;
	u64 item4;

	err = __get_user(item1, &from->item1);
	err |= __get_user(item2, &from->item2);
	err |= __get_user(item3, &from->item3);
	err |= __get_user(item4, &from->item4);

	err |= __put_user(item1, &to->item1);
	err |= __put_user(item2, &to->item2);
	err |= __put_user(item3, &to->item3);
	err |= __put_user(item4, &to->item4);

	return err;
}

v3:
- Removed the pre-update form and the <> modifier, because it seems
to be problematic with some older versions of GCC (namely 4.9) and
doesn't seems to generate much code of that form anyway. So better
to get it merged with the pre-update form than not be merged at all.
The pre-update form is added in a following patch that may then get
merged later once we have cleared the issue with it.

v2:
- Added <> modifier in __put_user_asm() and __get_user_asm()
- Removed %U2 in __put_user_asm2() and __get_user_asm2()
- Reworded the commit log
