locking/atomic: x86: add preprocessor symbols

Some atomics can be implemented in several different ways, e.g.
FULL/ACQUIRE/RELEASE ordered atomics can be implemented in terms of
RELAXED atomics, and ACQUIRE/RELEASE/RELAXED can be implemented in terms
of FULL ordered atomics. Other atomics are optional, and don't exist in
some configurations (e.g. not all architectures implement the 128-bit
cmpxchg ops).

Subsequent patches will require that architectures define a preprocessor
symbol for any atomic (or ordering variant) which is optional. This will
make the fallback ifdeffery more robust, and simplify future changes.

Add the required definitions to arch/x86.

locking/atomic/x86: Introduce arch_try_cmpxchg64

Introduce arch_try_cmpxchg64 for 64-bit and 32-bit targets to improve
code using cmpxchg64. On 64-bit targets, the generated assembly improves
from:

ab: 89 c8 mov %ecx,%eax
ad: 48 89 4c 24 60 mov %rcx,0x60(%rsp)
b2: 83 e0 fd and $0xfffffffd,%eax
b5: 89 54 24 64 mov %edx,0x64(%rsp)
b9: 88 44 24 60 mov %al,0x60(%rsp)
bd: 48 89 c8 mov %rcx,%rax
c0: c6 44 24 62 f2 movb $0xf2,0x62(%rsp)
c5: 48 8b 74 24 60 mov 0x60(%rsp),%rsi
ca: f0 49 0f b1 34 24 lock cmpxchg %rsi,(%r12)
d0: 48 39 c1 cmp %rax,%rcx
d3: 75 cf jne a4 <t+0xa4>

to:

b3: 89 c2 mov %eax,%edx
b5: 48 89 44 24 60 mov %rax,0x60(%rsp)
ba: 83 e2 fd and $0xfffffffd,%edx

cf: f0 48 0f b1 13 lock cmpxchg %rdx,(%rbx)
d4: 75 d5 jne ab <t+0xab>

where a move and a compare after cmpxchg is saved. The improvements
for 32-bit targets are even more noticeable, because dual-word compare
after cmpxchg8b gets eliminated.

locking/atomics/x86: Reduce arch_cmpxchg64*() instrumentation

Currently x86's arch_cmpxchg64() and arch_cmpxchg64_local() are
instrumented twice, as they call into instrumented atomics rather than
their arch_ equivalents.

A call to cmpxchg64() results in:

cmpxchg64()
kasan_check_write()
arch_cmpxchg64()
cmpxchg()
kasan_check_write()
arch_cmpxchg()

Let's fix this up and call the arch_ equivalents, resulting in:

cmpxchg64()
kasan_check_write()
arch_cmpxchg64()
arch_cmpxchg()

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Both the 32-bit and 64-bit cmpxchg.h header define __HAVE_ARCH_CMPXCHG

we can just as well move it up to the main cmpxchg header and simpify a

x86: Fix and improve cmpxchg_double{,_local}()

Just like the per-CPU ones they had several
problems/shortcomings:

Only the first memory operand was mentioned in the asm()
operands, and the 2x64-bit version didn't have a memory clobber
while the 2x32-bit one did. The former allowed the compiler to
not recognize the need to re-load the data in case it had it
cached in some register, while the latter was overly
destructive.

The types of the local copies of the old and new values were
incorrect (the types of the pointed-to variables should be used
here, to make sure the respective old/new variable types are
compatible).

The __dummy/__junk variables were pointless, given that local
copies of the inputs already existed (and can hence be used for
discarded outputs).

The 32-bit variant of cmpxchg_double_local() referenced
cmpxchg16b_local().

At once also:

- change the return value type to what it really is: 'bool'
- unify 32- and 64-bit variants
- abstract out the common part of the 'normal' and 'local' variants

x86: Add support for cmpxchg_double

A simple implementation that only supports the word size and does not
have a fallback mode (would require a spinlock).

Add 32 and 64 bit support for cmpxchg_double. cmpxchg double uses
the cmpxchg8b or cmpxchg16b instruction on x86 processors to compare
and swap 2 machine words. This allows lockless algorithms to move more
context information through critical sections.

Set a flag CONFIG_CMPXCHG_DOUBLE to signal that support for double word
cmpxchg detection has been build into the kernel. Note that each subsystem
using cmpxchg_double has to implement a fall back mechanism as long as
we offer support for processors that do not implement cmpxchg_double.

machinery can actually cause an unnecessary spill to memory.

Furthermore, the loading of the old value inside the loop in the
32-bit case is unnecessary: if the value doesn't match, the CMPXCHG8B
instruction will already have loaded the "new previous" value for us.
