Subject: [PATCH v3 32/32] powerpc/64s: system call support for scv/rfscv instructions

From: Nicholas Piggin <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 26 Feb 2020 03:35:41 +1000

Add support for the scv instruction on POWER9 and later CPUs.

For now this implements the zeroth scv vector 'scv 0', as identical
to 'sc' system calls, with the exception that lr is not preserved, and
it is 64-bit only. There may yet be changes made to this ABI, so it's
for testing only.

rfscv is implemented to return from scv type system calls. It can not
be used to return from sc system calls because those are defined to
preserve lr.

In a comparison of getpid syscall, the test program had scv taking
about 3 more cycles in user mode (92 vs 89 for sc), due to lr handling.
getpid syscall throughput on POWER9 is improved by 33%, mostly due to
reducing mtmsr and mtspr.

+----------
 The system call number is specified in r0.
 
 There is a maximum of 6 integer parameters to a syscall, passed in r3-r8.
 
-Both a return value and a return error code are returned. cr0.SO is the return

+  is >= -MAX_ERRNO (-4095) as an unsigned comparison, in which case it is the
+  negated return error code. Otherwise it is the successful return value.
