2015-04-09perf: Fix irq_work 'tail' recursionPeter Zijlstra
commit d525211f9d1be8b523ec7633f080f2116f5ea536 upstream. Vince reported a watchdog lockup like: [<ffffffff8115e114>] perf_tp_event+0xc4/0x210 [<ffffffff810b4f8a>] perf_trace_lock+0x12a/0x160 [<ffffffff810b7f10>] lock_release+0x130/0x260 [<ffffffff816c7474>] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x24/0x40 [<ffffffff8107bb4d>] do_send_sig_info+0x5d/0x80 [<ffffffff811f69df>] send_sigio_to_task+0x12f/0x1a0 [<ffffffff811f71ce>] send_sigio+0xae/0x100 [<ffffffff811f72b7>] kill_fasync+0x97/0xf0 [<ffffffff8115d0b4>] perf_event_wakeup+0xd4/0xf0 [<ffffffff8115d103>] perf_pending_event+0x33/0x60 [<ffffffff8114e3fc>] irq_work_run_list+0x4c/0x80 [<ffffffff8114e448>] irq_work_run+0x18/0x40 [<ffffffff810196af>] smp_trace_irq_work_interrupt+0x3f/0xc0 [<ffffffff816c99bd>] trace_irq_work_interrupt+0x6d/0x80 Which is caused by an irq_work generating new irq_work and therefore not allowing forward progress. This happens because processing the perf irq_work triggers another perf event (tracepoint stuff) which in turn generates an irq_work ad infinitum. Avoid this by raising the recursion counter in the irq_work -- which effectively disables all software events (including tracepoints) from actually triggering again.

2015-01-26perf: Fix events installation during moving groupJiri Olsa
commit 9fc81d87420d0d3fd62d5e5529972c0ad9eab9cc upstream. We allow PMU driver to change the cpu on which the event should be installed to. This happened in patch: e2d37cd213dc ("perf: Allow the PMU driver to choose the CPU on which to install events") This patch also forces all the group members to follow the currently opened events cpu if the group happened to be moved. This and the change of event->cpu in perf_install_in_context() function introduced in: 0cda4c023132 ("perf: Introduce perf_pmu_migrate_context()") forces group members to change their event->cpu, if the currently-opened-event's PMU changed the cpu and there is a group move. Above behaviour causes problem for breakpoint events, which uses event->cpu to touch cpu specific data for breakpoints accounting. By changing event->cpu, some breakpoints slots were wrongly accounted for given cpu. Vinces's perf fuzzer hit this issue and caused following WARN on my setup: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 20214 at arch/x86/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c:119 arch_install_hw_breakpoint+0x142/0x150() Can't find any breakpoint slot [...] This patch changes the group moving code to keep the event's original cpu.

2014-12-06uprobes, x86: Fix _TIF_UPROBE vs _TIF_NOTIFY_RESUMEAndy Lutomirski
commit 82975bc6a6df743b9a01810fb32cb65d0ec5d60b upstream. x86 call do_notify_resume on paranoid returns if TIF_UPROBE is set but not on non-paranoid returns. I suspect that this is a mistake and that the code only works because int3 is paranoid. Setting _TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME in the uprobe code was probably a workaround for the x86 bug. With that bug fixed, we can remove _TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME from the uprobes code.

2014-10-31perf: Handle compat ioctlPawel Moll
commit b3f207855f57b9c8f43a547a801340bb5cbc59e5 upstream. When running a 32-bit userspace on a 64-bit kernel (eg. i386 application on x86_64 kernel or 32-bit arm userspace on arm64 kernel) some of the perf ioctls must be treated with special care, as they have a pointer size encoded in the command. For example, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID in 32-bit world will be encoded as 0x80042407, but 64-bit kernel will expect 0x80082407. In result the ioctl will fail returning -ENOTTY. This patch solves the problem by adding code fixing up the size as compat_ioctl file operation.

2014-10-13perf: Fix a race condition in perf_remove_from_context()Cong Wang
commit 3577af70a2ce4853d58e57d832e687d739281479 upstream. We saw a kernel soft lockup in perf_remove_from_context(), it looks like the `perf` process, when exiting, could not go out of the retry loop. Meanwhile, the target process was forking a child. So either the target process should execute the smp function call to deactive the event (if it was running) or it should do a context switch which deactives the event. It seems we optimize out a context switch in perf_event_context_sched_out(), and what's more important, we still test an obsolete task pointer when retrying, so no one actually would deactive that event in this situation. Fix it directly by reloading the task pointer in perf_remove_from_context(). This should cure the above soft lockup.

2014-06-20perf: Fix race in removing an eventPeter Zijlstra
commit 46ce0fe97a6be7532ce6126bb26ce89fed81528c upstream. When removing a (sibling) event we do: raw_spin_lock_irq(&ctx->lock); perf_group_detach(event); raw_spin_unlock_irq(&ctx->lock); <hole> perf_remove_from_context(event); raw_spin_lock_irq(&ctx->lock); ... raw_spin_unlock_irq(&ctx->lock); Now, assuming the event is a sibling, it will be 'unreachable' for things like ctx_sched_out() because that iterates the groups->siblings, and we just unhooked the sibling. So, if during <hole> we get ctx_sched_out(), it will miss the event and not call event_sched_out() on it, leaving it programmed on the PMU. The subsequent perf_remove_from_context() call will find the ctx is inactive and only call list_del_event() to remove the event from all other lists. Hereafter we can proceed to free the event; while still programmed! Close this hole by moving perf_group_detach() inside the same ctx->lock region(s) perf_remove_from_context() has. The condition on inherited events only in __perf_event_exit_task() is likely complete crap because non-inherited events are part of groups too and we're tearing down just the same. But leave that for another patch.

2014-06-20perf: Prevent false warning in perf_swevent_addJiri Olsa
commit 39af6b1678afa5880dda7e375cf3f9d395087f6d upstream. The perf cpu offline callback takes down all cpu context events and releases swhash->swevent_hlist. This could race with task context software event being just scheduled on this cpu via perf_swevent_add while cpu hotplug code already cleaned up event's data. The race happens in the gap between the cpu notifier code and the cpu being actually taken down. Note that only cpu ctx events are terminated in the perf cpu hotplug code. It's easily reproduced with: $ perf record -e faults perf bench sched pipe while putting one of the cpus offline: # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online Console emits following warning: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2845 at kernel/events/core.c:5672 perf_swevent_add+0x18d/0x1a0() Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 2845 Comm: sched-pipe Tainted: G W 3.14.0+ #256 Hardware name: Intel Corporation Montevina platform/To be filled by O.E.M., BIOS AMVACRB1.86C.0066.B00.0805070703 05/07/2008 0000000000000009 ffff880077233ab8 ffffffff81665a23 0000000000200005 0000000000000000 ffff880077233af8 ffffffff8104732c 0000000000000046 ffff88007467c800 0000000000000002 ffff88007a9cf2a0 0000000000000001 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81665a23>] dump_stack+0x4f/0x7c [<ffffffff8104732c>] warn_slowpath_common+0x8c/0xc0 [<ffffffff8104737a>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 [<ffffffff8110fb3d>] perf_swevent_add+0x18d/0x1a0 [<ffffffff811162ae>] event_sched_in.isra.75+0x9e/0x1f0 [<ffffffff8111646a>] group_sched_in+0x6a/0x1f0 [<ffffffff81083dd5>] ? sched_clock_local+0x25/0xa0 [<ffffffff811167e6>] ctx_sched_in+0x1f6/0x450 [<ffffffff8111757b>] perf_event_sched_in+0x6b/0xa0 [<ffffffff81117a4b>] perf_event_context_sched_in+0x7b/0xc0 [<ffffffff81117ece>] __perf_event_task_sched_in+0x43e/0x460 [<ffffffff81096f1e>] ? put_lock_stats.isra.18+0xe/0x30 [<ffffffff8107b3c8>] finish_task_switch+0xb8/0x100 [<ffffffff8166a7de>] __schedule+0x30e/0xad0 [<ffffffff81172dd2>] ? pipe_read+0x3e2/0x560 [<ffffffff8166b45e>] ? preempt_schedule_irq+0x3e/0x70 [<ffffffff8166b45e>] ? preempt_schedule_irq+0x3e/0x70 [<ffffffff8166b464>] preempt_schedule_irq+0x44/0x70 [<ffffffff816707f0>] retint_kernel+0x20/0x30 [<ffffffff8109e60a>] ? lockdep_sys_exit+0x1a/0x90 [<ffffffff812a4234>] lockdep_sys_exit_thunk+0x35/0x67 [<ffffffff81679321>] ? sysret_check+0x5/0x56 Fixing this by tracking the cpu hotplug state and displaying the WARN only if current cpu is initialized properly.

commit e3703f8cdfcf39c25c4338c3ad8e68891cca3731 upstream. Drew Richardson reported that he could make the kernel go *boom* when hotplugging while having perf events active. It turned out that when you have a group event, the code in __perf_event_exit_context() fails to remove the group siblings from the context. We then proceed with destroying and freeing the event, and when you re-plug the CPU and try and add another event to that CPU, things go *boom* because you've still got dead entries there.

2013-10-17perf: Disable PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 supportStephane Eranian
For now, we disable the extended MMAP record support (MMAP2). We have identified cases where it would not report the correct mapping information, clone(VM_CLONE) but with separate pids. We will revisit the support once we find a solution for this case. The patch changes the kernel to return EINVAL if attr->mmap2 is set. The patch also modifies the perf tool to use regular PERF_RECORD_MMAP for synthetic events and it also prevents the tool from requesting attr->mmap2 mode because the kernel would reject it. The support will be revisited once the kenrel interface is updated. In V2, we reduce the patch to the strict minimum. In V3, we avoid calling perf_event_open() with mmap2 set because we know it will fail and require fallback retry.

2013-10-04perf: Fix perf_pmu_migrate_contextPeter Zijlstra
While auditing the list_entry usage due to a trinity bug I found that perf_pmu_migrate_context violates the rules for perf_event::event_entry. The problem is that perf_event::event_entry is a RCU list element, and hence we must wait for a full RCU grace period before re-using the element after deletion. Therefore the usage in perf_pmu_migrate_context() which re-uses the entry immediately is broken. For now introduce another list_head into perf_event for this specific usage. This doesn't actually fix the trinity report because that never goes through this code.

2013-09-20perf: Fix capabilities bitfield compatibility in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'Peter Zijlstra
Solve the problems around the broken definition of perf_event_mmap_page:: cap_usr_time and cap_usr_rdpmc fields which used to overlap, partially fixed by: 860f085b74e9 ("perf: Fix broken union in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'") The problem with the fix (merged in v3.12-rc1 and not yet released officially), noticed by Vince Weaver is that the new behavior is not detectable by new user-space, and that due to the reuse of the field names it's easy to mis-compile a binary if old headers are used on a new kernel or new headers are used on an old kernel. To solve all that make this change explicit, detectable and self-contained, by iterating the ABI the following way: - Always clear bit 0, and rename it to usrpage->cap_bit0, to at least not confuse old user-space binaries. RDPMC will be marked as unavailable to old binaries but that's within the ABI, this is a capability bit. - Rename bit 1 to ->cap_bit0_is_deprecated and always set it to 1, so new libraries can reliably detect that bit 0 is deprecated and perma-zero without having to check the kernel version. - Use bits 2, 3, 4 for the newly defined, correct functionality: cap_user_rdpmc : 1, /* The RDPMC instruction can be used to read counts */ cap_user_time : 1, /* The time_* fields are used */ cap_user_time_zero : 1, /* The time_zero field is used */ - Rename all the bitfield names in perf_event.h to be different from the old names, to make sure it's not possible to mis-compile it accidentally with old assumptions. The 'size' field can then be used in the future to add new fields and it will act as a natural ABI version indicator as well. Also adjust tools/perf/ userspace for the new definitions, noticed by Adrian Hunter.

Most changes aren't visible to userland at all at this point and are laying foundation for the planned unified hierarchy. - The biggest change is decoupling the lifetime management of css (cgroup_subsys_state) from that of cgroup's. Because controllers (cpu, memory, block and so on) will need to be dynamically enabled and disabled, css which is the association point between a cgroup and a controller may come and go dynamically across the lifetime of a cgroup. Till now, css's were created when the associated cgroup was created and stayed till the cgroup got destroyed. Assumptions around this tight coupling permeated through cgroup core and controllers. These assumptions are gradually removed, which consists bulk of patches, and css destruction path is completely decoupled from cgroup destruction path. Note that decoupling of creation path is relatively easy on top of these changes and the patchset is pending for the next window. - cgroup has its own event mechanism cgroup.event_control, which is only used by memcg. It is overly complex trying to achieve high flexibility whose benefits seem dubious at best.

2013-08-29perf: make events stream always parsableAdrian Hunter
The event stream is not always parsable because the format of a sample is dependent on the sample_type of the selected event. When there is more than one selected event and the sample_types are not the same then parsing becomes problematic. A sample can be matched to its selected event using the ID that is allocated when the event is opened. Unfortunately, to get the ID from the sample means first parsing it. This patch adds a new sample format bit PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFER that puts the ID at a fixed position so that the ID can be retrieved without parsing the sample. For sample events, that is the first position immediately after the header. For non-sample events, that is the last position. In this respect parsing samples requires that the sample_type and ID values are recorded. For example, perf tools records struct perf_event_attr and the IDs within the perf.data file. Those must be read first before it is possible to parse samples found later in the perf.data file.

cgroup_css_from_dir() will grow another user. In preparation, make the following changes. * All css functions are prefixed with just "css_", rename it to css_from_dir(). * Take dentry * instead of file * as dentry is what ultimately identifies a cgroup and file may not always be available. Note that the function now checkes whether @dentry->d_inode is NULL as the caller now may specify a negative dentry. * Make it take cgroup_subsys * instead of integer subsys_id. This simplifies the function and allows specifying no subsystem for cgroup->dummy_css. * Make return section a bit less verbose. This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

2013-08-16perf: Account freq events globallyFrederic Weisbecker
Freq events may not always be affine to a particular CPU. As such, account_event_cpu() may crash if we account per cpu a freq event that has event->cpu == -1. To solve this, lets account freq events globally. In practice this doesn't change much the picture because perf tools create per-task perf events with one event per CPU by default. Profiling a single CPU is usually a corner case so there is no much point in optimizing things that way.

2013-08-16perf: Roll back callchain buffer refcount under the callchain mutexFrederic Weisbecker
When we fail to allocate the callchain buffers, we roll back the refcount we did and return from get_callchain_buffers(). However we take the refcount and allocate under the callchain lock but the rollback is done outside the lock. As a result, while we roll back, some concurrent callchain user may call get_callchain_buffers(), see the non-zero refcount and give up because the buffers are NULL without itself retrying the allocation. The consequences aren't that bad but that behaviour looks weird enough and it's better to give their chances to the following callchain users where we failed.

2013-08-08cgroup: make cgroup_taskset deal with cgroup_subsys_state instead of cgroupTejun Heo
cgroup is in the process of converting to css (cgroup_subsys_state) from cgroup as the principal subsystem interface handle. This is mostly to prepare for the unified hierarchy support where css's will be created and destroyed dynamically but also helps cleaning up subsystem implementations as css is usually what they are interested in anyway. cgroup_taskset which is used by the subsystem attach methods is the last cgroup subsystem API which isn't using css as the handle. Update cgroup_taskset_cur_cgroup() to cgroup_taskset_cur_css() and cgroup_taskset_for_each() to take @skip_css instead of @skip_cgrp. The conversions are pretty mechanical. One exception is cpuset::cgroup_cs(), which lost its last user and got removed. This patch shouldn't introduce any functional changes.

2013-08-08cgroup: pass around cgroup_subsys_state instead of cgroup in subsystem methodsTejun Heo
cgroup is currently in the process of transitioning to using struct cgroup_subsys_state * as the primary handle instead of struct cgroup * in subsystem implementations for the following reasons. * With unified hierarchy, subsystems will be dynamically bound and unbound from cgroups and thus css's (cgroup_subsys_state) may be created and destroyed dynamically over the lifetime of a cgroup, which is different from the current state where all css's are allocated and destroyed together with the associated cgroup. This in turn means that cgroup_css() should be synchronized and may return NULL, making it more cumbersome to use. * Differing levels of per-subsystem granularity in the unified hierarchy means that the task and descendant iterators should behave differently depending on the specific subsystem the iteration is being performed for. * In majority of the cases, subsystems only care about its part in the cgroup hierarchy - ie. the hierarchy of css's. Subsystem methods often obtain the matching css pointer from the cgroup and don't bother with the cgroup pointer itself. Passing around css fits much better. This patch converts all cgroup_subsys methods to take @css instead of @cgroup. The conversions are mostly straight-forward. A few noteworthy changes are * ->css_alloc() now takes css of the parent cgroup rather than the pointer to the new cgroup as the css for the new cgroup doesn't exist yet. Knowing the parent css is enough for all the existing subsystems. * In kernel/cgroup.c::offline_css(), unnecessary open coded css dereference is replaced with local variable access. This patch shouldn't cause any behavior differences. v2: Unnecessary explicit cgrp->subsys[] deref in css_online() replaced with local variable @css as suggested by Li Zefan. Rebased on top of new for-3.12 which includes for-3.11-fixes so that ->css_free() invocation added by da0a12caff ("cgroup: fix a leak when percpu_ref_init() fails") is converted too.

The names of the two struct cgroup_subsys_state accessors - cgroup_subsys_state() and task_subsys_state() - are somewhat awkward. The former clashes with the type name and the latter doesn't even indicate it's somehow related to cgroup. We're about to revamp large portion of cgroup API, so, let's rename them so that they're less awkward. Most per-controller usages of the accessors are localized in accessor wrappers and given the amount of scheduled changes, this isn't gonna add any noticeable headache. Rename cgroup_subsys_state() to cgroup_css() and task_subsys_state() to task_css(). This patch is pure rename. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>

2013-07-30perf: Implement finer grained full dynticks kickFrederic Weisbecker
Currently the full dynticks subsystem keep the tick alive as long as there are perf events running. This prevents the tick from being stopped as long as features such that the lockup detectors are running. As a temporary fix, the lockup detector is disabled by default when full dynticks is built but this is not a long term viable solution. To fix this, only keep the tick alive when an event configured with a frequency rather than a period is running on the CPU, or when an event throttles on the CPU. These are the only purposes of the perf tick, especially now that the rotation of flexible events is handled from a seperate hrtimer. The tick can be shutdown the rest of the time.

2013-07-30perf: Sanitize get_callchain_buffer()Frederic Weisbecker
In case of allocation failure, get_callchain_buffer() keeps the refcount incremented for the current event. As a result, when get_callchain_buffers() returns an error, we must cleanup what it did by cancelling its last refcount with a call to put_callchain_buffers(). This is a hack in order to be able to call free_event() after that failure. The original purpose of that was to simplify the failure path. But this error handling is actually counter intuitive, ugly and not very easy to follow because one expect to see the resources used to perform a service to be cleaned by the callee if case of failure, not by the caller. So lets clean this up by cancelling the refcount from get_callchain_buffer() in case of failure. And correctly free the event accordingly in perf_event_alloc().

2013-07-30perf: Fix branch stack refcount leak on callchain init failureFrederic Weisbecker
On callchain buffers allocation failure, free_event() is called and all the accounting performed in perf_event_alloc() for that event is cancelled. But if the event has branch stack sampling, it is unaccounted as well from the branch stack sampling events refcounts. This is a bug because this accounting is performed after the callchain buffer allocation. As a result, the branch stack sampling events refcount can become negative. To fix this, move the branch stack event accounting before the callchain buffer allocation.

2013-07-14kernel: delete __cpuinit usage from all core kernel filesPaul Gortmaker
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include) that don't really have a specific maintainer.

2013-07-12perf: Clone child context from parent context pmuJiri Olsa
Currently when the child context for inherited events is created, it's based on the pmu object of the first event of the parent context. This is wrong for the following scenario: - HW context having HW and SW event - HW event got removed (closed) - SW event stays in HW context as the only event and its pmu is used to clone the child context The issue starts when the cpu context object is touched based on the pmu context object (__get_cpu_context). In this case the HW context will work with SW cpu context ending up with following WARN below. Fixing this by using parent context pmu object to clone from child context.

2013-07-05perf: Fix interrupt handler timing harnessStephane Eranian
This patch fixes a serious bug in: 14c63f17b1fd perf: Drop sample rate when sampling is too slow There was an misunderstanding on the API of the do_div() macro. It returns the remainder of the division and this was not what the function expected leading to disabling the interrupt latency watchdog. This patch also remove a duplicate assignment in perf_sample_event_took().
