Implement following cache operations:
- clean_and_invalidate_dcache_va_range()
- clean_dcache_va_range()
- invalidate_icache()
The first two functions may require support for the CMO (Cache Management
Operations) extension and/or hardware-specific instructions.
Currently, only QEMU is supported, which does not model cache behavior.
Therefore, clean_and_invalidate_dcache_va_range() and clean_dcache_va_range()
are implemented to simply return 0. For other cases, generate compilation error
so a user won't miss to update this function if necessery.
If hardware supports CMO or hardware-specific instructions, these functions
should be updated accordingly. To support current implementation of these
function CONFIG_QEMU_PLATFORM is introduced.
invalidate_icache() is implemented using fence.i instruction as
mentioned in the unpriv spec:
The FENCE.I instruction was designed to support a wide variety of
implementations. A simple implementation can flush the local instruction
cache and the instruction pipeline when the FENCE.I is executed.
A more complex implementation might snoop the instruction (data) cache
on every data (instruction) cache miss, or use an inclusive unified
private L2 cache to invalidate lines from the primary instruction cache
when they are being written by a local store instruction.
If instruction and data caches are kept coherent in this way, or if the
memory system consists of only uncached RAMs, then just the fetch pipeline
needs to be flushed at a FENCE.I.
The FENCE.I instruction requires the presence of the Zifencei extension,
which might not always be available. However, Xen uses the RV64G ISA, which
guarantees the presence of the Zifencei extension. According to the
unprivileged ISA specification (version
20240411):
One goal of the RISC-V project is that it be used as a stable software
development target. For this purpose, we define a combination of a base ISA
(RV32I or RV64I) plus selected standard extensions (IMAFD, Zicsr, Zifencei)
as a "general-purpose" ISA, and we use the abbreviation G for the
IMAFDZicsr_Zifencei combination of instruction-set extensions.
Set CONFIG_QEMU_PLATFORM=y in tiny64_defconfig to have proper implemtation of
clean_and_invalidate_dcache_va_range() and clean_dcache_va_range() for CI.
