Currently, sparse hartid is not supported for Linux RISC-V for the following reasons. 1. Both spinwait and ordered booting method uses __cpu_up_stack/task_pointer which is an array size of NR_CPUs. 2. During early booting, any hartid greater than NR_CPUs are not booted at all. 3. riscv_cpuid_to_hartid_mask uses struct cpumask for generating hartid bitmap. 4. SBI v0.2 implementation uses NR_CPUs as the maximum hartid number while generating hartmask. In order to support sparse hartid, the hartid & NR_CPUS needs to be disassociated which was logically incorrect anyways. NR_CPUs represent the maximum logical| CPU id configured in the kernel while the hartid represent the physical hartid stored in mhartid CSR defined by the privilege specification. Thus, hartid can have much greater value than logical cpuid. Currently, we have two methods of booting. Ordered booting where the booting hart brings up each non-booting hart one by one using SBI HSM extension. The spinwait booting method relies on harts jumping to Linux kernel randomly and boot hart is selected by a lottery. All other non-booting harts keep spinning on __cpu_up_stack/task_pointer until boot hart initializes the data. Both these methods rely on __cpu_up_stack/task_pointer to setup the stack/ task pointer. The spinwait method is mostly used to support older firmwares without SBI HSM extension and M-mode Linux. The ordered booting method is the preferred booting method for booting general Linux because it can support cpu hotplug and kexec. The first patch modified the ordered booting method to use an opaque parameter already available in HSM start API to setup the stack/task pointer. The third patch resolves the issue #1 by limiting the usage of __cpu_up_stack/task_pointer to spinwait specific booting method. The fourth and fifth patch moves the entire hart lottery selection and spinwait method to a separate config that can be disabled if required. It solves the issue #2. The 6th patch solves issue #3 and #4 by removing riscv_cpuid_to_hartid_mask completely. All the SBI APIs directly pass a pointer to struct cpumask and the SBI implementation takes care of generating the hart bitmap from the cpumask. It is not trivial to support sparse hartid for spinwait booting method and there are no usecases to support sparse hartid for spinwait method as well. Any platform with sparse hartid will probably require more advanced features such as cpu hotplug and kexec. Thus, the series supports the sparse hartid via ordered booting method only. To maintain backward compatibility, spinwait booting method is currently enabled in defconfig so that M-mode linux will continue to work. Any platform that requires to sparse hartid must disable the spinwait method. This series also fixes the out-of-bounds access error[1] reported by Geert. The issue can be reproduced with SMP booting with NR_CPUS=4 on platforms with discontiguous hart numbering (HiFive unleashed/unmatched & polarfire). Spinwait method should also be disabled for such configuration where NR_CPUS value is less than maximum hartid in the platform.

I have tested it on HiFive Unmatched and Qemu.
