  From: Hsiangkai Wang <kai.wang@sifive.com>

In some cases, we do not want to go through the resolver for function
calls. For example, functions with vector arguments will use vector
registers to pass arguments. In the resolver, we do not save/restore the
vector argument registers for lazy binding efficiency. To avoid ruining
the vector arguments, functions with vector arguments will not go
through the resolver.

To achieve the goal, we will annotate the function symbols with
STO_RISCV_VARIANT_CC flag and add DT_RISCV_VARIANT_CC tag in the dynamic
section. In the first pass on PLT relocations, we do not set up to call
_dl_runtime_resolve. Instead, we resolve the functions directly.

Sorry, I missed the fixed-up patch set (which is why I just sent out a 
similar bit of documentation).

IMO this is the wrong way to go: we're essentially re-defining a bit 
used be the standard ABI to mean something else.  I guess we've already 
defacto forked from the psABI with that "standard calling convention" 
language, but IMO it'd be prudent to use a different bit to represent 
this new behavior.  In the long term one could imagine trying to get 
back in line with the psABI, but if we're repurposing two bit patterns 
it'll be a bit harder than if we're just repurposing one.

Aside from that this one looks fine to me.

Given the complexity around this psABI spec deviation and how close we 
are to release I'd prefer to wait and see if we can come up with a 
better solution, though -- for example, I'd been kicking around some 
ideas related to ELF object attributes saying "this follows the 
psABI-1.0" vs "this follows the legacy GNU psABI extensions".  That way 
we could at least tag binaries that explicitly rely on this new behavior 
as such, which would give us a shot at eventually getting rid of them.

If you want to go this route, I suggest you use GNU property for this.
ld.so supports GNU property.

Makes sense.

I'd been thinking of essentially just defining one bit for each of these 
incompatibilites, with an absence of them meaning the legacy behavior 
and then a true/false meaning that users have explicitly opted into to 
the spec'd or legacy behavior.  I hadn't gotten as far as actually 
figuring out where to put those bits -- I got hung up on the pc-relative 
vs position-independent one, and that's clearly for after this round of 
releases so I kind of just put it on the backburner.

Given that pretty much all of these are going to need to drive runtime 
behavior, though, it sounds like a GNU property is a reasonable way to 
go.  There's going to be a lot of edge cases here, though, so happy to 
hear if anyone has ideas ;)

Thanks!

OK, I understand. I reviewed the psABI spec again and did some
modifications. Did you think is it better?

Functions that are lazily bound must be compatible with the standard
calling convention. Any functions that use additional argument
registers must be annotated with STO_RISCV_VARIANT_CC. To prevent
these additional argument registers from being corrupted during the
lazy binding process, this patch makes such functions be always
resolved at load time, not lazily.

I agree that we don't need to rush to come up with a solution in this
release. But, I have a little confused. Even if the ELF object
attribute is able to say "this follows the psABI-1.0" vs "this follows
the legacy GNU psABI extensions", we still need to use
STO_RISCV_VARIANT_CC to tell ld.so whether needs to directly resolve
this symbol. Is it correct?

I was trying to suggest using a different bit (with a different name) 
for the "does not follow the standard calling convention" behavior, 
rather than re-defining the bit allocated for STO_RISCV_VARIANT_CC in 
the psABI for that behavior.  Maybe it just doesn't matter, given that 
we're forking, but re-using the same bit will just make things more 
confusing for everyone in the future.  Aside from that the original text 
looked OK.

We need to directly resolve all symbols compatible with psABI-1.0, lazy 
binding will only be legal for symbols that follow the legacy GNU 
extensions.

As per the ratified psABI v1.0, the V calling convention doesn't allow 
use of V reg for functions args, so this is not needed for now.

We don't have one for now, but we could expect the future will have one,
so I think we could accept that on upstream first?

Not sure what you mean. Are you saying that even though the current ABI 
doesn't require it, we should still add it to glibc, won't it bitrot.
I don't feel strongly either ways, but IMO this should be done when the 
ABI is actually changed.

Thx,

STO_RISCV_VARIANT_CC has already been defined and released in psABI 1.0,
and this patch is implementing a feature in released psABI,
so I think this is fine to upstream from psABI perspective.

+Functions that are lazily bound must be compatible with the standard calling

+this function is not compatible with the standard calling convention. The
+dynamic linker will directly resolve it instead of using the lazy binding

 ABI are declared in @file{sys/cachectl.h}.
