Note that we can't use alternatives here because the discovery of
extensions is done too late and we need to start with the qspinlock
implementation because the ticket spinlock implementation would pollute
the spinlock value, so let's use static keys.
This is largely based on Guo's work and Leonardo reviews at [1].

Why do we need this? Also, we presumably would prefer not to have it
when we end up using ticket spinlocks when combo spinlocks is selected.
Is there no way to avoid it?

Maybe some text recommending combo spinlocks here? As it stands it sounds
like enabling queued spinlocks is a bad idea for anybody that doesn't know
what platforms will run the kernel they're building, which is all distros.
That's NONPORTABLE, so people enabling this config are supposed to
know that right?

...do you know what impact this inlined static key check has on the

No, I'll check, thanks.
So I have just checked the size of the jump table section:
* defconfig:
- ticket: 26928 bytes
- combo: 28320 bytes
So that's a ~5% increase.
* ubuntu config
- ticket: 107840 bytes
- combo: 174752 bytes
And that's a ~62% increase.
This is the ELF size difference between ticket and combo spinlocks:
* ticket: 776915592 bytes
* combo: 786958968 bytes
So that's an increase of ~1.3% on the ELF.
And the .text section size:
* ticket: 12290960 bytes
* combo: 12366644 bytes
And that's a ~0.6% increase!
Finally, I'd say the impact is very limited :)
Thanks,
Alex
Actually, why not use ALTERNATIVE with any nonzero cpufeature value.
Then add code to riscv_cpufeature_patch_check() to return true when
qspinlocks should be enabled (based on the value of some global set
during riscv_spinlock_init)?
As discussed with Guo in the previous iteration, the patching of the
alternatives intervenes far after the first use of the spinlocks and
the ticket spinlock implementation pollutes the spinlock value, so
we'd have to unconditionally start with the qspinlock implementation
and after switch to the ticket implementation if not supported by the
platform. It works but it's dirty, I really don't like this hack.
We could though:
- add an initial value to the alternatives (not sure it's feasible though)
- make the patching of alternatives happen sooner by parsing the isa
string sooner, either in DT or ACPI (I have a working PoC for very
early parsing of ACPI).
I intend to do the latter as I think we should be aware of the
extensions sooner in the boot process, so I'll change that to the
alternatives when it's done. WDYT, any other idea?

I'm not sure what's better/worse, but instead of inventing this
__no_arch_spinlock_redefine thing we could just name all the functions
something like __arch_spin* and then add defines for both to asm/spinlock.h,
i.e.
#define queued_spin_lock(l) __arch_spin_lock(l)
...
#define ticket_spin_lock(l) __arch_spin_lock(l)
...
Besides not having to touch asm-generic/qspinlock.h and
asm-generic/ticket_spinlock.h it allows one to find the implementations
a bit easier as following a tag to arch_spin_lock() will take them to
queued_spin_lock() which will then take them to
arch/riscv/include/asm/spinlock.h and there they'll figure out how
__arch_spin_lock() was defined.
