^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 2) Kernel-provided User Helpers
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 3) ============================
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 4)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 5) These are segment of kernel provided user code reachable from user space
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 6) at a fixed address in kernel memory. This is used to provide user space
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 7) with some operations which require kernel help because of unimplemented
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 8) native feature and/or instructions in many ARM CPUs. The idea is for this
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 9) code to be executed directly in user mode for best efficiency but which is
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 10) too intimate with the kernel counter part to be left to user libraries.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 11) In fact this code might even differ from one CPU to another depending on
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 12) the available instruction set, or whether it is a SMP systems. In other
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 13) words, the kernel reserves the right to change this code as needed without
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 14) warning. Only the entry points and their results as documented here are
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 15) guaranteed to be stable.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 16)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 17) This is different from (but doesn't preclude) a full blown VDSO
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 18) implementation, however a VDSO would prevent some assembly tricks with
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 19) constants that allows for efficient branching to those code segments. And
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 20) since those code segments only use a few cycles before returning to user
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 21) code, the overhead of a VDSO indirect far call would add a measurable
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 22) overhead to such minimalistic operations.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 23)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 24) User space is expected to bypass those helpers and implement those things
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 25) inline (either in the code emitted directly by the compiler, or part of
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 26) the implementation of a library call) when optimizing for a recent enough
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 27) processor that has the necessary native support, but only if resulting
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 28) binaries are already to be incompatible with earlier ARM processors due to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 29) usage of similar native instructions for other things. In other words
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 30) don't make binaries unable to run on earlier processors just for the sake
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 31) of not using these kernel helpers if your compiled code is not going to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 32) use new instructions for other purpose.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 33)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 34) New helpers may be added over time, so an older kernel may be missing some
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 35) helpers present in a newer kernel. For this reason, programs must check
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 36) the value of __kuser_helper_version (see below) before assuming that it is
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 37) safe to call any particular helper. This check should ideally be
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 38) performed only once at process startup time, and execution aborted early
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 39) if the required helpers are not provided by the kernel version that
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 40) process is running on.
