<griddle> Ah, crashing in my printf due to trying to save Q registers. What's the gcc incantation to disable fpu a-la `-no-sse`
<j`ey> -mgeneral-regs-only
<griddle> Awesome, thanks
<griddle> Is that the best practice for this situation?
<mrvn> That should fail to compile
<mrvn> If printf is saving Q registers then you are using float/double somewhere in the va_args.
<mrvn> griddle: You should have that everywhere in your kernel or the SIMD optimization will get you
<griddle> that was my thinking
<bslsk05> ​godbolt.org: Compiler Explorer
<griddle> heyy, got printing working
<mrvn> griddle: see, no doube, no Q regs
<griddle> The arm64 gcc restricts more than the x64 or rv64 ones
<griddle> I had a `double` in my printf impl that got around the #ifdefs. arm is the first time that's been a problem

<griddle> yep ran into that :)
<mrvn> griddle: also https://godbolt.org/z/d6T7vMMj5
<bslsk05> ​godbolt.org: Compiler Explorer
<mrvn> You just have to pass doubles on the stack
gildasio has joined #osdev
<griddle> Hmm, isn't the device tree pointer passed in x0? At least in the qemu virt
<griddle> Oh, it's actually at the physical address 0
<mrvn> ugh? last time that's where my kernel was.

<heat> the "fun"
<griddle> i just want it to run in arm64 because running riscv in TCG is slow in an M1 VM :)
<griddle> my x86 arch has fallen behind cause I dev on this WMO machine, so x86 emu is dog slow and often incorrect

<geist> griddle: yeah that's a good reason
<griddle> do you practically have to worry about EL{2,3}?
[itchyjunk] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
<griddle> Coming from RV64, those modes just feel like M mode, which you can ignore in the presence of S
<geist> yes and no. in qemu with TCG you can tell it to optionally emulate EL2 and EL3, but the default is to drop you in EL1. in the case of qemu + HVF on a M1 you only get EL1. M1 cpus only actually implement EL2-EL0 (no EL3) and that's where the apple hypervisor/kernel is running at
<geist> on real hardware, yo might have to at least deal with being booted in EL2 and dropping down to EL1. That's fair common on random arm dev boards coming out of grub or UEFI
<geist> and yes, for the most part think of EL3 == machine mode, EL1 == supervisor mode, and EL2 is the virtualization mode that risc-v was *going* to implement but they switched gears for their virt extension to be more of a sidestep in supervisor mode
<griddle> I assume going up to EL1 from 2 is relatively trivial
<griddle> only machines I may run this on in real hardware are a rpi or a big dual socket ampere altra machine
<geist> well, yes and no. you can only switch from a lower to a higher mode via an exception or a particular instructio that triggers an exception
Matt|home has quit [Ping timeout: 255 seconds]
<geist> er, oh wait you said up to. i think of it as down. yeah, dropping to a lower mode (EL2 -> EL1) is basically an eret instruction with teh approproiate state
<geist> more or less the same as riscv
<griddle> sans SBI ofc
<griddle> okay that makes sense
<geist> right, though ARM has a thing called PSCI, usually implemented at EL3, that you can make calls to that's kinda similar to SBI though less features
<geist> basically you call it for power management things, oincluding bringing up and shutting down cores
<griddle> you can trampoline to EL1 w/o having to also support EL2 to a significant degree
<griddle> ?
<geist> yes. it's easy to drop from EL2 to EL1
<griddle> Cool thanks
<geist> you just have to set up a little bit of state, in the form of control registers at EL2 that control the state of EL1 first
<geist> https://github.com/littlekernel/lk/blob/master/arch/arm64/asm.S#L81 is some code i wrote a while back to do this
<bslsk05> ​github.com: lk/asm.S at master · littlekernel/lk · GitHub
<geist> takes whatever mode you're in and drops to EL1 after setting some state bits
<griddle> Oh yeah that's trivial
<geist> note that lots of control registers in ARM64 are banked, much like say mstatus/sstatus
<geist> they differentiate them with the suffix
<geist> so say SCTLR_EL3, SCTLR_EL2, etc
<griddle> arguably better
<geist> usual rules: you can access the registers in the modes lower than or the same as yours
<griddle> is the terminology that EL1 is a "higher" mode than EL2 or the other way
<geist> i generally say lower
<geist> and i like that numbering convention
<geist> you 'drop to' a lower mode
<griddle> I like that. You have lower priv
<geist> right. i like the numbering in that direction better than the x86 rings being backwards
<griddle> or riscv being letters :^)
<griddle> esp in the light of x86 having ring -3
<geist> yah. note that the numbering of the modes in riscv is the same direction
<geist> ie, m = 3, s = 1, u = 0, etc
<geist> yah x86 rings are a direct copy of VAX rings, so can blame DEC for that
<griddle> yeah, kinda an intel footgun
<griddle> copy VAX, nobody uses it
<griddle> now you are stuck w/ higher priv modes being negative
<geist> note that ARM64 allows a lotof the modes to be optional, though differently than riscv
<geist> riscv mandates that M mode always exist and most of the rest of the modes are optional, except i think U must exist if S exists
<griddle> yeah
<geist> arm is the other way around. EL0 and EL1 must exist i think, the other modes above are optional
<griddle> M, M+U, M+S+U
pretty_dumm_guy has quit [Quit: WeeChat 3.5]
<griddle> so EL0 is just defacto "user mode" code
<griddle> or "at least less priv than whatever the highest priv"
<geist> the higher levels in ARM are not really any more intrinsically priviledged except that levels above can take things away from them, etc
<geist> yes, and EL0 has much less accessed to priviledged instructions, etc
<griddle> Ah so do the ELs have intrinsic capabilities?
<griddle> or can I allow or block certain functionality in lower modes
<geist> somewhat. EL0 is obviously user and can do less things, but otherwise EL1 - EL3 each have their own mmu and page tables (unlike riscv)
<griddle> Interesting
<geist> but EL2 has hypervisor capabilities in that it *also* has a second level mmu that EL1 nests with
<geist> and yes you can block various functionality in lower modes, or arrange for various things to trap into a higher mode
<geist> EL3 tends to exist solely to be where you put priviledged firmware
<griddle> a-la riscv delegation?
<griddle> Makes sense
<geist> and to allow multiple hypervisors/OSes to run at the same time
<geist> surprisingly aplpe M1 does not implement EL3. only arm64 core i know of that doesn't
<geist> also didn't mention, arm64 has similar rules to riscv in the bitness of lower levels. ie you can drop to a lower level and go from 64 -> 32bit, but not the other way
<griddle> they expose power management through some bits somwhere right?
<geist> and also based on if the hardware imeplements arm32/etc
<geist> since the arm32 state fits entirely within the arm64 state
Matt|home has joined #osdev
<geist> yah that's the PSCI stuff. usually implemented at EL3, though it could be virtually implemented at EL2
<geist> like you'd get under some sort of hypervisor
<griddle> So since EL1 and EL0 have different page tables, do systems which assume a single table write the same table to both registers?
<geist> no they usually split
<geist> it's actually not that EL0 and EL1 have separate tables it's that there are simply two page tables
<geist> one for 0 ... N and another from -N ... 0
<griddle> oh will a miss in El1 mean it scans EL0?
matt__ has joined #osdev
<griddle> thats actually really cool
<geist> each independent with their own permission bits. but it's convention that the kernel lives in negative space
<geist> so when you switch user page tables you usually leave the kernel one there
matt__ is now known as freakazoid333
<geist> but they can be independently turned off and whatnot
<geist> a very very nice feature. was sad to see that riscv didn't implement that
<griddle> Feel like riscv didn't for impl complexity reasons
<geist> has the whole single top level table thing with non canonical pages and whatnot, exactly like x86
<geist> oh almost certainly
<griddle> riscv folks keep boxing themselves into the "low power" category
<geist> yeah, agreed
<geist> case in point: no banked timers, so you have to use SBI to virtualize it for you
<geist> that's pretty painful
<griddle> sifive keeps saying their hardware is fast
<griddle> but don't include an l2 prefetcher
<geist> or needing SBI to do TLB shootdown
<griddle> 300mb/s memory bandwidth
<geist> yah my experience with real riscv hardware is its anything but fast. but i like it just the same. it's sooooo simple to work with
<griddle> silicon is slower than a firesim machine
<geist> a great canonical simple architecture to fiddle with
<griddle> yeah, it's so simple I love it
<geist> and pretty great for embedded. it's going to totally soak up that whole space
<geist> i think ARM is getting pretty worried there
<griddle> I think arm is shifting more consumer
<griddle> at least it feels like that
<griddle> they are pushing into server stuff
<geist> the M1 wsas a huge win. legitimizes it in the desktop space
<griddle> absolutely
<geist> i was honestly blown away, and i've been following that forever
<geist> (typing on one right now)
<griddle> plus, their relatively small core size lets them just pack so much more in
<griddle> the altra I've got has 128 hardware threads
<griddle> no SMT
<griddle> I've got an M1 pro and it's currently drawing 6w
<geist> yah i have a Thunder X2 here with 256 threads. SMT4!
<griddle> xps15 in the corner is probably drawing 15 watts in smm
<griddle> off topic from osdev, but I'm angry at apple
<griddle> they killed off their old text rendering system
<griddle> if you don't have a 200+ppi display, text looks horrid
<griddle> big LG ultrawide, 144hz, etc
<geist> ah yeah
<griddle> genuinely has the readability of a 480p CRT television from 1993
<geist> i can see that
<geist> i have a m1 mini but it's hooked up to an el cheapo 4K so looks okay
<geist> and this laptop is a m1 pro so it's got a very dense display
<griddle> yeah that display is the best one I have
<griddle> so actually
<griddle> Apple's scaling policy when using 4k is to render at 5k and downsample
<geist> gotta put that gpu to use!
<griddle> from system info: U2790B:
<griddle> Resolution:5120 x 2880 (5K/UHD+ - Ultra High Definition Plus)
<griddle> UI Looks like:2560 x 1440 @ 60.00Hz

<geist> the e1000 stuff?
<ebrasca> Yes
foudfou has joined #osdev
<geist> it may not be the most rock solid driver, since i just wrote it and it hasn't been stressed out, but should be much easier to understand for basic setup
<ebrasca> I need to finish init , read and write and I will call it done!
<ebrasca> I like to have it to test better tcp ip in the OS!
<heat> i'm reasonably proud of my e1000 driver
<heat> supports most basic "fancy" features like csum offloading
<heat> although I don't support segmentation offloading
<heat> still haven't quite wrapped my head around that
<geist> yeah the seg offloading looked a bit more complex to set up
<geist> looks like you have to stuff metdata packets into the queue to tell it what its doing? something like that
<geist> or something like that
<heat> you mean the extended descriptor format?
<geist> something like tat? been a whie since i looked at it
<heat> I'm not quite worried about segmentation offloading in the driver itself, but any possible side-effects of using it inside the network stack
<geist> i thought there was some mechanism by which you dscribe some external data outside of packets itself
<heat> and actually enable it
<geist> indeed, you'd have to at the minimum be able to deal with 64k MTU packets at the net stack, etc
<heat> checksum offloading is also tricky sometimes
<heat> I can't remember why exactly, but fragmented packets can't use it
<heat> oh of course

<heat> bsd best, linux kernel stupid and bad
<griddle> hot takes
<griddle> well, luke warm
<heat> 4.4bsd top 2 operating system
<heat> top 1 onyx, onyx numba 1
<griddle> a whole 4000 users
<heat> what's your favorite kernel
<heat> you can find out a whole lot about someone just with that
<griddle> openbsd is up there
foudfou has joined #osdev
<heat> oh shit, you're a psycho
<griddle> yeah
<griddle> i've never used it
<griddle> just read their code :^)
<heat> perfect
<heat> just like openbsd devs then
<griddle> exactly
<griddle> nobody knows how to use bsd make anywho
foudfou has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<heat> i think you type make and then press enter
<heat> that should do the trick
<psykose> the default openbsd install makes more filesystem partitions than openbsd has users
foudfou has joined #osdev
<griddle> 300 partitions? wow
<griddle> doesn't truenas run freebsd?
<griddle> definitely the primary use for bsd
<psykose> ye
opal has joined #osdev
<heat> the primary use for bsd is to serve as m a c h's bitch
<griddle> and to have the only good zfs impl
<griddle> it's a lot of boilerplate code to run zfs
<heat> you could use solaris
<gog> and what's the deal with bsd disklabel
<heat> you could also use btrfs like non-self-hating human beings
sikkiladho_ has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity]
<gog> no thanks i actually hate myself
<griddle> i mean
<griddle> we are talking about using bsd
<heat> we love you gog
<griddle> <3
<gog> aw <3
<gog> wait are we supposed to hate bsd though
<griddle> no
<griddle> you love bsd
<griddle> but you are NOT allowed to run it

<gog> :o
<gog> deprivation kink
<heat> the true bsd is dragonfly
<mrvn> Berkley is famous for two things: LSD and BSD. I think there is a connection.
<heat> lerkeley software distribution
<netbsduser`> mach made an excellent contribution to bsd
<netbsduser`> modern BSD virtual memory management and assorted other concepts (ASTs, softints) arrived to it from mach
<CompanionCube> griddle: i mean since 2020 linux and freebsd have the same zfs impl
<griddle> ah, I have been living on old memes
<griddle> myb
<CompanionCube> probably rather better integrated into freebsd, but it's the same code developed in the same repo
<heat> i'm a btrfs user and btrfs saved my fucking life
<heat> i snapshot everything
<griddle> typical btrfs user
<heat> then I snapshot the snapshots
<CompanionCube> snapshots are win
<heat> and restore them, then restore the snapshot
<heat> my friends hated me but now btrfs made me not have friends
<heat> so now no one hates me
<griddle> i need to finish my ext2 impl
<griddle> i haven't been able to write to the disk for 3y
<heat> github.com/heatd/Onyx/blob/master/kernel/kernel/fs/ext2
<bslsk05> ​github.com: Onyx/kernel/kernel/fs/ext2 at master · heatd/Onyx · GitHub
<heat> you can send me the royalties later when your OS overtakes windows
<griddle> my read only impl has survived 3 vfs rewrites
<griddle> it needs to be rewritten from the ground up
<heat> I've thought about almost-refactoring mine into an ext4 driver
<heat> s/refactoring/rewriting/
<heat> I've never written ext4 write code so that'll be fun of course
<griddle> the write part is easy
<griddle> the block allocation and nested indirection bs that hurts
<mrvn> griddle: you backup every day too, right? It's just the restore part that isn't quite there yet
<griddle> yeah i tar up my home dir
<griddle> goes into /dev/null tho
<griddle> its in memory somewhere
<mrvn> tar is optimized for /dev/null even
<griddle> of course
<heat> griddle, ext4 writing isn't easy
<heat> the extent tree is considerably more complicated IMO, and the journal is a bitch as well
<griddle> ext4 is too much
<griddle> ext2 is fine enough
<heat> amish-certified filesystem
<heat> we hit peak filesysteming in the 90s
<griddle> fat12 is all you need
<mrvn> Files are nver larger than 2GB too

<zid> Imagine using anything except iso9660
<zid> It has both big and little endian entries for everything, what more could you need
<griddle> filesystems are only good if you can use them as frisbees
pretty_dumm_guy has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
<heat> noooo fat12 is too old
<zid> I need to make an OS that runs on a selectable endian cpu
<heat> UFS please
<zid> and distribute it on a CD that has BE binary and a LE binary on different versions of the FS
<heat> you can select the endianness on arm64
<zid> The problem is I have a sneaking suspicion
<zid> that all of those cpus just use the le side to boot from
<zid> re their firmware
pretty_dumm_guy has joined #osdev
<heat> it is what it is
<zid> but I could at least maybe do something like kmain() { draw_splash("splash.png"); }
<zid> and have the code I use to walk the fs care about the endian
<zid> and give you different images
