lib: sbi: Introduce register_extensions extension callback Rather than registering all extensions on their behalf in sbi_ecall_init(), introduce another extension callback and invoke that instead. For now, implement each callback by simply registering the extension, which means this patch has no intended functional change. In later patches, extension callbacks will be modified to choose when to register and to possibly narrow the extension ID range prior to registering. When an extension range needs to remove IDs, leaving gaps, then multiple invocations of sbi_ecall_register_extension() may be used. In summary, later patches for current extensions and the introductions of future extensions will use the new callback to ensure that only valid extension IDs from the initial range, which are also available, will be registered.

The RISC-V Supervisor Binary Interface (SBI) is the recommended interface between:
The RISC-V SBI specification is maintained as an independent project by the RISC-V Foundation on Github.
The goal of the OpenSBI project is to provide an open-source reference implementation of the RISC-V SBI specifications for platform-specific firmwares executing in M-mode (case 1 mentioned above). An OpenSBI implementation can be easily extended by RISC-V platform and system-on-chip vendors to fit a particular hardware configuration.
The main component of OpenSBI is provided in the form of a platform-independent static library libsbi.a implementing the SBI interface. A firmware or bootloader implementation can link against this library to ensure conformance with the SBI interface specifications. libsbi.a also defines an interface for integrating with platform-specific operations provided by the platform firmware implementation (e.g. console access functions, inter-processor interrupt control, etc).
To illustrate the use of the libsbi.a library, OpenSBI also provides a set of platform-specific support examples. For each example, a platform-specific static library libplatsbi.a can be compiled. This library implements SBI call processing by integrating libsbi.a with the necessary platform-dependent hardware manipulation functions. For all supported platforms, OpenSBI also provides several runtime firmware examples built using the platform libplatsbi.a. These example firmwares can be used to replace the legacy riscv-pk bootloader (aka BBL) and enable the use of well-known bootloaders such as U-Boot.
Currently, OpenSBI fully supports SBI specification v0.2. OpenSBI also supports Hart State Management (HSM) SBI extension starting from OpenSBI v0.7. HSM extension allows S-mode software to boot all the harts a defined order rather than legacy method of random booting of harts. As a result, many required features such as CPU hotplug, kexec/kdump can also be supported easily in S-mode. HSM extension in OpenSBI is implemented in a non-backward compatible manner to reduce the maintenance burden and avoid confusion. That's why, any S-mode software using OpenSBI will not be able to boot more than 1 hart if HSM extension is not supported in S-mode.
Linux kernel already supports SBI v0.2 and HSM SBI extension starting from v5.7-rc1. If you are using an Linux kernel older than 5.7-rc1 or any other S-mode software without HSM SBI extension, you should stick to OpenSBI v0.6 to boot all the harts. For a UMP systems, it doesn't matter.
N.B. Any S-mode boot loader (i.e. U-Boot) doesn‘t need to support HSM extension, as it doesn’t need to boot all the harts. The operating system should be capable enough to bring up all other non-booting harts using HSM extension.
OpenSBI can be compiled natively or cross-compiled on a x86 host. For cross-compilation, you can build your own toolchain, download a prebuilt one from the Bootlin toolchain repository or install a distribution-provided toolchain; if you opt to use LLVM/Clang, most distribution toolchains will support cross-compiling for RISC-V using the same toolchain as your native LLVM/Clang toolchain due to LLVM's ability to support multiple backends in the same binary, so is often an easy way to obtain a working cross-compilation toolchain.
Basically, we prefer toolchains with Position Independent Executable (PIE) support like riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc, riscv64-unknown-freebsd-gcc, or Clang/LLVM as they generate PIE firmware images that can run at arbitrary address with appropriate alignment. If a bare-metal GNU toolchain (e.g. riscv64-unknown-elf-gcc) is used, static linked firmware images are generated instead. Clang/LLVM can still generate PIE images if a bare-metal triple is used (e.g. -target riscv64-unknown-elf).
Please note that only a 64-bit version of the toolchain is available in the Bootlin toolchain repository for now.
In addition to a toolchain, OpenSBI also requires the following packages on the host:
The OpenSBI platform-independent static library libsbi.a can be compiled natively or it can be cross-compiled on a host with a different base architecture than RISC-V.
For cross-compiling, the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE must be defined to specify the name prefix of the RISC-V compiler toolchain executables, e.g. riscv64-linux-gnu- if the gcc executable used is riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc.
To build libsbi.a simply execute:
make
All compiled binaries as well as the resulting libsbi.a static library file will be placed in the build/lib directory. To specify an alternate build root directory path, run:
make O=<build_directory>
To generate files to be installed for using libsbi.a in other projects, run:
make install
This will create the install directory with all necessary include files copied under the install/include directory and the library file copied into the install/lib directory. To specify an alternate installation root directory path, run:
make I=<install_directory> install
When the PLATFORM=<platform_subdir> argument is specified on the make command line, the platform-specific static library libplatsbi.a and firmware examples are built for the platform <platform_subdir> present in the directory platform in the OpenSBI top directory. For example, to compile the platform library and the firmware examples for the QEMU RISC-V virt machine, <platform_subdir> should be generic.
To build libsbi.a, libplatsbi.a and the firmware for one of the supported platforms, run:
make PLATFORM=<platform_subdir>
An alternate build directory path can also be specified:
make PLATFORM=<platform_subdir> O=<build_directory>
The platform-specific library libplatsbi.a will be generated in the build/platform/<platform_subdir>/lib directory. The platform firmware files will be under the build/platform/<platform_subdir>/firmware directory. The compiled firmwares will be available in two different formats: an ELF file and an expanded image file.
To install libsbi.a, libplatsbi.a, and the compiled firmwares, run:
make PLATFORM=<platform_subdir> install
This will copy the compiled platform-specific libraries and firmware files under the install/platform/<platform_subdir>/ directory. An alternate install root directory path can be specified as follows:
make PLATFORM=<platform_subdir> I=<install_directory> install
In addition, platform-specific configuration options can be specified with the top-level make command line. These options, such as PLATFORM_ or FW_, are platform-specific and described in more details in the docs/platform/<platform_name>.md files and docs/firmware/<firmware_name>.md files.
All OpenSBI platforms support Kconfig style build-time configuration. Users can change the build-time configuration of a platform using a graphical interface as follows:
make PLATFORM=<platform_subdir> menuconfig
Alternately, an OpenSBI platform can have multiple default configurations and users can select a custom default configuration as follows:
make PLATFORM=<platform_subdir> PLATFORM_DEFCONFIG=<platform_custom_defconfig>
By default, building OpenSBI generates 32-bit or 64-bit images based on the supplied RISC-V cross-compile toolchain. For example if CROSS_COMPILE is set to riscv64-linux-gnu-, 64-bit OpenSBI images will be generated. If building 32-bit OpenSBI images, CROSS_COMPILE should be set to a toolchain that is pre-configured to generate 32-bit RISC-V codes, like riscv32-linux-gnu-.
However it's possible to explicitly specify the image bits we want to build with a given RISC-V toolchain. This can be done by setting the environment variable PLATFORM_RISCV_XLEN to the desired width, for example:
export CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu- export PLATFORM_RISCV_XLEN=32
will generate 32-bit OpenSBI images. And vice vesa.
OpenSBI can also be built with Clang/LLVM. To build with just Clang but keep the default binutils (which will still use the CROSS_COMPILE prefix if defined), override the CC make variable with:
make CC=clang
To build with a full LLVM-based toolchain, not just Clang, enable the LLVM option with:
make LLVM=1
When using Clang, CROSS_COMPILE often does not need to be defined unless using GNU binutils with prefixed binary names. PLATFORM_RISCV_XLEN will be used to infer a default triple to pass to Clang, so if PLATFORM_RISCV_XLEN itself defaults to an undesired value then prefer setting that rather than the full triple via CROSS_COMPILE. If CROSS_COMPILE is nonetheless defined, rather than being used as a prefix for the executable name, it will instead be passed via the --target option with the trailing - removed, so must be a valid triple.
These can also be mixed; for example using a GCC cross-compiler but LLVM binutils would be:
make CC=riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc LLVM=1
These variables must be passed for all the make invocations described in this document.
NOTE: Using Clang with a riscv*-linux-gnu GNU binutils linker has been seen to produce broken binaries with missing relocations; it is therefore currently recommended that this combination be avoided or FW_PIC=n be used to disable building OpenSBI as a position-independent binary.
When doing development, we may want to know the build time and compiler info for debug purpose. OpenSBI can also be built with timestamp and compiler info. To build with those info and print it out at boot time, we can just simply add BUILD_INFO=y, like:
make BUILD_INFO=y
But if you have used BUILD_INFO=y, and want to switch back to BUILD_INFO=n, you must do
make clean
before the next build.
NOTE: Using BUILD_INFO=y without specifying SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH will violate reproducible builds. This definition is ONLY for development and debug purpose, and should NOT be used in a product which follows “reproducible builds”.
When debugging OpenSBI, we may want to turn off the compiler optimization and make debugging produce the expected results for a better debugging experience. To build with optimization off we can just simply add DEBUG=1, like:
make DEBUG=1
This definition is ONLY for development and debug purpose, and should NOT be used in a product build.
