git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 cache quality monitoring update from Thomas Gleixner: "This update provides a complete rewrite of the Cache Quality Monitoring (CQM) facility. The existing CQM support was duct taped into perf with a lot of issues and the attempts to fix those turned out to be incomplete and horrible. After lengthy discussions it was decided to integrate the CQM support into the Resource Director Technology (RDT) facility, which is the obvious choise as in hardware CQM is part of RDT. This allowed to add Memory Bandwidth Monitoring support on top. As a result the mechanisms for allocating cache/memory bandwidth and the corresponding monitoring mechanisms are integrated into a single management facility with a consistent user interface" * 'x86-cache-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (37 commits) x86/intel_rdt: Turn off most RDT features on Skylake x86/intel_rdt: Add command line options for resource director technology x86/intel_rdt: Move special case code for Haswell to a quirk function x86/intel_rdt: Remove redundant ternary operator on return x86/intel_rdt/cqm: Improve limbo list processing x86/intel_rdt/mbm: Fix MBM overflow handler during CPU hotplug x86/intel_rdt: Modify the intel_pqr_state for better performance x86/intel_rdt/cqm: Clear the default RMID during hotcpu x86/intel_rdt: Show bitmask of shareable resource with other executing units x86/intel_rdt/mbm: Handle counter overflow x86/intel_rdt/mbm: Add mbm counter initialization x86/intel_rdt/mbm: Basic counting of MBM events (total and local) x86/intel_rdt/cqm: Add CPU hotplug support x86/intel_rdt/cqm: Add sched_in support x86/intel_rdt: Introduce rdt_enable_key for scheduling x86/intel_rdt/cqm: Add mount,umount support x86/intel_rdt/cqm: Add rmdir support x86/intel_rdt: Separate the ctrl bits from rmdir x86/intel_rdt/cqm: Add mon_data x86/intel_rdt: Prepare for RDT monitor data support ...

2017-08-31mm, uprobes: fix multiple free of ->uprobes_state.xol_areaEric Biggers
Commit 7c051267931a ("mm, fork: make dup_mmap wait for mmap_sem for write killable") made it possible to kill a forking task while it is waiting to acquire its ->mmap_sem for write, in dup_mmap(). However, it was overlooked that this introduced an new error path before the new mm_struct's ->uprobes_state.xol_area has been set to NULL after being copied from the old mm_struct by the memcpy in dup_mm(). For a task that has previously hit a uprobe tracepoint, this resulted in the 'struct xol_area' being freed multiple times if the task was killed at just the right time while forking. Fix it by setting ->uprobes_state.xol_area to NULL in mm_init() rather than in uprobe_dup_mmap(). With CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS=y, the bug can be reproduced by the same C program given by commit 2b7e8665b4ff ("fork: fix incorrect fput of ->exe_file causing use-after-free"), provided that a uprobe tracepoint has been set on the fork_thread() function. For example: $ gcc reproducer.c -o reproducer -lpthread $ nm reproducer | grep fork_thread 0000000000400719 t fork_thread $ echo "p $PWD/reproducer:0x719" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events $ echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/uprobes/enable $ ./reproducer Here is the use-after-free reported by KASAN: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in uprobe_clear_state+0x1c4/0x200 Read of size 8 at addr ffff8800320a8b88 by task reproducer/198 CPU: 1 PID: 198 Comm: reproducer Not tainted 4.13.0-rc7-00015-g36fde05f3fb5 #255 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.10.2-20170228_101828-anatol 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0xdb/0x185 print_address_description+0x7e/0x290 kasan_report+0x23b/0x350 __asan_report_load8_noabort+0x19/0x20 uprobe_clear_state+0x1c4/0x200 mmput+0xd6/0x360 do_exit+0x740/0x1670 do_group_exit+0x13f/0x380 get_signal+0x597/0x17d0 do_signal+0x99/0x1df0 exit_to_usermode_loop+0x166/0x1e0 syscall_return_slowpath+0x258/0x2c0 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0xbc/0xbe ...

2017-08-29perf/core, x86: Add PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDRKan Liang
For understanding how the workload maps to memory channels and hardware behavior, it's very important to collect address maps with physical addresses. For example, 3D XPoint access can only be found by filtering the physical address. Add a new sample type for physical address. perf already has a facility to collect data virtual address. This patch introduces a function to convert the virtual address to physical address. The function is quite generic and can be extended to any architecture as long as a virtual address is provided. - For kernel direct mapping addresses, virt_to_phys is used to convert the virtual addresses to physical address. - For user virtual addresses, __get_user_pages_fast is used to walk the pages tables for user physical address. - This does not work for vmalloc addresses right now. These are not resolved, but code to do that could be added. The new sample type requires collecting the virtual address. The virtual address will not be output unless SAMPLE_ADDR is applied. For security, the physical address can only be exposed to root or privileged user.

2017-08-29perf/core, pt, bts: Get rid of itrace_startedAlexander Shishkin
I just noticed that hw.itrace_started and hw.config are aliased to the same location. Now, the PT driver happens to use both, which works out fine by sheer luck: - STORE(hw.itrace_start) is ordered before STORE(hw.config), in the program order, although there are no compiler barriers to ensure that, - to the perf_log_itrace_start() hw.itrace_start looks set at the same time as when it is intended to be set because both stores happen in the same path, - hw.config is never reset to zero in the PT driver. Now, the use of hw.config by the PT driver makes more sense (it being a HW PMU) than messing around with itrace_started, which is an awkward API to begin with. This patch replaces hw.itrace_started with an attach_state bit and an API call for the PMU drivers to use to communicate the condition.

2017-08-29perf/ftrace: Fix double traces of perf on ftrace:functionZhou Chengming
When running perf on the ftrace:function tracepoint, there is a bug which can be reproduced by: perf record -e ftrace:function -a sleep 20 & perf record -e ftrace:function ls perf script ls 10304 [005] 171.853235: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853237: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853239: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853240: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853242: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853244: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns We can see that all the function traces are doubled. The problem is caused by the inconsistency of the register function perf_ftrace_event_register() with the probe function perf_ftrace_function_call(). The former registers one probe for every perf_event. And the latter handles all perf_events on the current cpu. So when two perf_events on the current cpu, the traces of them will be doubled. So this patch adds an extra parameter "event" for perf_tp_event, only send sample data to this event when it's not NULL.

2017-08-29perf/core: Fix potential double-fetch bugMeng Xu
While examining the kernel source code, I found a dangerous operation that could turn into a double-fetch situation (a race condition bug) where the same userspace memory region are fetched twice into kernel with sanity checks after the first fetch while missing checks after the second fetch. 1. The first fetch happens in line 9573 get_user(size, &uattr->size). 2. Subsequently the 'size' variable undergoes a few sanity checks and transformations (line 9577 to 9584). 3. The second fetch happens in line 9610 copy_from_user(attr, uattr, size) 4. Given that 'uattr' can be fully controlled in userspace, an attacker can race condition to override 'uattr->size' to arbitrary value (say, 0xFFFFFFFF) after the first fetch but before the second fetch. The changed value will be copied to 'attr->size'. 5. There is no further checks on 'attr->size' until the end of this function, and once the function returns, we lose the context to verify that 'attr->size' conforms to the sanity checks performed in step 2 (line 9577 to 9584). 6. My manual analysis shows that 'attr->size' is not used elsewhere later, so, there is no working exploit against it right now. However, this could easily turns to an exploitable one if careless developers start to use 'attr->size' later. To fix this, override 'attr->size' from the second fetch to the one from the first fetch, regardless of what is actually copied in. In this way, it is assured that 'attr->size' is consistent with the checks performed after the first fetch.

2017-08-25tracing, perf: Adjust code layout in get_recursion_context()Jesper Dangaard Brouer
In an XDP redirect applications using tracepoint xdp:xdp_redirect to diagnose TX overrun, I noticed perf_swevent_get_recursion_context() was consuming 2% CPU. This was reduced to 1.85% with this simple change. Looking at the annotated asm code, it was clear that the unlikely case in_nmi() test was chosen (by the compiler) as the most likely event/branch. This small adjustment makes the compiler (GCC version 7.1.1 20170622 (Red Hat 7.1.1-3)) put in_nmi() as an unlikely branch.

2017-08-25perf/aux: Ensure aux_wakeup represents most recent wakeup indexWill Deacon
The aux_watermark member of struct ring_buffer represents the period (in terms of bytes) at which wakeup events should be generated when data is written to the aux buffer in non-snapshot mode. On hardware that cannot generate an interrupt when the aux_head reaches an arbitrary wakeup index (such as ARM SPE), the aux_head sampled from handle->head in perf_aux_output_{skip,end} may in fact be past the wakeup index. This can lead to wakeup slowly falling behind the head. For example, consider the case where hardware can only generate an interrupt on a page-boundary and the aux buffer is initialised as follows: // Buffer size is 2 * PAGE_SIZE rb->aux_head = rb->aux_wakeup = 0 rb->aux_watermark = PAGE_SIZE / 2 following the first perf_aux_output_begin call, the handle is initialised with: handle->head = 0 handle->size = 2 * PAGE_SIZE handle->wakeup = PAGE_SIZE / 2 and the hardware will be programmed to generate an interrupt at PAGE_SIZE. When the interrupt is raised, the hardware head will be at PAGE_SIZE, so calling perf_aux_output_end(handle, PAGE_SIZE) puts the ring buffer into the following state: rb->aux_head = PAGE_SIZE rb->aux_wakeup = PAGE_SIZE / 2 rb->aux_watermark = PAGE_SIZE / 2 and then the next call to perf_aux_output_begin will result in: handle->head = handle->wakeup = PAGE_SIZE for which the semantics are unclear and, for a smaller aux_watermark (e.g. PAGE_SIZE / 4), then the wakeup would in fact be behind head at this point. This patch fixes the problem by rounding down the aux_head (as sampled from the handle) to the nearest aux_watermark boundary when updating rb->aux_wakeup, therefore taking into account any overruns by the hardware.

2017-08-25perf/core: Fix group {cpu,task} validationMark Rutland
Regardless of which events form a group, it does not make sense for the events to target different tasks and/or CPUs, as this leaves the group inconsistent and impossible to schedule. The core perf code assumes that these are consistent across (successfully intialised) groups. Core perf code only verifies this when moving SW events into a HW context. Thus, we can violate this requirement for pure SW groups and pure HW groups, unless the relevant PMU driver happens to perform this verification itself. These mismatched groups subsequently wreak havoc elsewhere. For example, we handle watchpoints as SW events, and reserve watchpoint HW on a per-CPU basis at pmu::event_init() time to ensure that any event that is initialised is guaranteed to have a slot at pmu::add() time. However, the core code only checks the group leader's cpu filter (via event_filter_match()), and can thus install follower events onto CPUs violating thier (mismatched) CPU filters, potentially installing them into a CPU without sufficient reserved slots. This can be triggered with the below test case, resulting in warnings from arch backends. #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <linux/hw_breakpoint.h> #include <linux/perf_event.h> #include <sched.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/prctl.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <unistd.h> static int perf_event_open(struct perf_event_attr *attr, pid_t pid, int cpu, int group_fd, unsigned long flags) { return syscall(__NR_perf_event_open, attr, pid, cpu, group_fd, flags); } char watched_char; struct perf_event_attr wp_attr = { .type = PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT, .bp_type = HW_BREAKPOINT_RW, .bp_addr = (unsigned long)&watched_char, .bp_len = 1, .size = sizeof(wp_attr), }; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int leader, ret; cpu_set_t cpus; /* * Force use of CPU0 to ensure our CPU0-bound events get scheduled. */ CPU_ZERO(&cpus); CPU_SET(0, &cpus); ret = sched_setaffinity(0, sizeof(cpus), &cpus); if (ret) { printf("Unable to set cpu affinity\n"); return 1; } /* open leader event, bound to this task, CPU0 only */ leader = perf_event_open(&wp_attr, 0, 0, -1, 0); if (leader < 0) { printf("Couldn't open leader: %d\n", leader); return 1; } /* * Open a follower event that is bound to the same task, but a * different CPU.

2017-08-10perf/core: Fix time on IOC_ENABLEPeter Zijlstra
Vince reported that when we do IOC_ENABLE/IOC_DISABLE while the task is SIGSTOP'ed state the timestamps go wobbly. It turns out we indeed fail to correctly account time while in 'OFF' state and doing IOC_ENABLE without getting scheduled in exposes the problem. Further thinking about this problem, it occurred to me that we can suffer a similar fate when we migrate an uncore event between CPUs. The perf_event_install() on the 'new' CPU will do add_event_to_ctx() which will reset all the time stamp, resulting in a subsequent update_event_times() to overwrite the total_time_* fields with smaller values.

2017-08-01x86/perf/cqm: Wipe out perf based cqmVikas Shivappa
'perf cqm' never worked due to the incompatibility between perf infrastructure and cqm hardware support. The hardware uses RMIDs to track the llc occupancy of tasks and these RMIDs are per package. This makes monitoring a hierarchy like cgroup along with monitoring of tasks separately difficult and several patches sent to lkml to fix them were NACKed. Further more, the following issues in the current perf cqm make it almost unusable: 1. No support to monitor the same group of tasks for which we do allocation using resctrl. 2. It gives random and inaccurate data (mostly 0s) once we run out of RMIDs due to issues in Recycling. 3. Recycling results in inaccuracy of data because we cannot guarantee that the RMID was stolen from a task when it was not pulling data into cache or even when it pulled the least data. Also for monitoring llc_occupancy, if we stop using an RMID_x and then start using an RMID_y after we reclaim an RMID from an other event, we miss accounting all the occupancy that was tagged to RMID_x at a later perf_count. 2. Recycling code makes the monitoring code complex including scheduling because the event can lose RMID any time. Since MBM counters count bandwidth for a period of time by taking snap shot of total bytes at two different times, recycling complicates the way we count MBM in a hierarchy. Also we need a spin lock while we do the processing to account for MBM counter overflow. We also currently use a spin lock in scheduling to prevent the RMID from being taken away. 4. Lack of support when we run different kind of event like task, system-wide and cgroup events together. Data mostly prints 0s. This is also because we can have only one RMID tied to a cpu as defined by the cqm hardware but a perf can at the same time tie multiple events during one sched_in. 5. No support of monitoring a group of tasks. There is partial support for cgroup but it does not work once there is a hierarchy of cgroups or if we want to monitor a task in a cgroup and the cgroup itself. 6. No support for monitoring tasks for the lifetime without perf overhead. 7. It reported the aggregate cache occupancy or memory bandwidth over all sockets. But most cloud and VMM based use cases want to know the individual per-socket usage.

2017-07-21perf/core: Fix locking for children siblings group readJiri Olsa
We're missing ctx lock when iterating children siblings within the perf_read path for group reading. Following race and crash can happen: User space doing read syscall on event group leader: T1: perf_read lock event->ctx->mutex perf_read_group lock leader->child_mutex __perf_read_group_add(child) list_for_each_entry(sub, &leader->sibling_list, group_entry) ----> sub might be invalid at this point, because it could get removed via perf_event_exit_task_context in T2 Child exiting and cleaning up its events: T2: perf_event_exit_task_context lock ctx->mutex list_for_each_entry_safe(child_event, next, &child_ctx->event_list,... perf_event_exit_event(child) lock ctx->lock perf_group_detach(child) unlock ctx->lock ----> child is removed from sibling_list without any sync with T1 path above ... free_event(child) Before the child is removed from the leader's child_list, (and thus is omitted from perf_read_group processing), we need to ensure that perf_read_group touches child's siblings under its ctx->lock.

2017-07-20perf/core: Fix scheduling regression of pinned groupsAlexander Shishkin
Vince Weaver reported: > I was tracking down some regressions in my perf_event_test testsuite. > Some of the tests broke in the 4.11-rc1 timeframe. > > I've bisected one of them, this report is about > tests/overflow/simul_oneshot_group_overflow > This test creates an event group containing two sampling events, set > to overflow to a signal handler (which disables and then refreshes the > event). > > On a good kernel you get the following: > Event perf::instructions with period 1000000 > Event perf::instructions with period 2000000 > fd 3 overflows: 946 (perf::instructions/1000000) > fd 4 overflows: 473 (perf::instructions/2000000) > Ending counts: > Count 0: 946379875 > Count 1: 946365218 > > With the broken kernels you get: > Event perf::instructions with period 1000000 > Event perf::instructions with period 2000000 > fd 3 overflows: 938 (perf::instructions/1000000) > fd 4 overflows: 318 (perf::instructions/2000000) > Ending counts: > Count 0: 946373080 > Count 1: 653373058 The root cause of the bug is that the following commit: 487f05e18a ("perf/core: Optimize event rescheduling on active contexts") erronously assumed that event's 'pinned' setting determines whether the event belongs to a pinned group or not, but in fact, it's the group leader's pinned state that matters. This was discovered by Vince in the test case described above, where two instruction counters are grouped, the group leader is pinned, but the other event is not; in the regressed case the counters were off by 33% (the difference between events' periods), but should be the same within the error margin. Fix the problem by looking at the group leader's pinning.

2017-06-21perf/aux: Correct return code of rb_alloc_aux() if !has_aux(ev)Hendrik Brueckner
If the event for which an AUX area is about to be allocated, does not support setting up an AUX area, rb_alloc_aux() return -ENOTSUPP. This error condition is being returned unfiltered to the user space, and, for example, the perf tools fails with: failed to mmap with 524 (INTERNAL ERROR: strerror_r(524, 0x3fff497a1c8, 512)=22) This error can be easily seen with "perf record -m 128,256 -e cpu-clock". The 524 error code maps to -ENOTSUPP (in rb_alloc_aux()). The -ENOTSUPP error code shall be only used within the kernel. So the correct error code would then be -EOPNOTSUPP. With this commit, the perf tool then reports: failed to mmap with 95 (Operation not supported) which is more clear.

When doing sampling, for example: perf record -e cycles:u ... On workloads that do a lot of kernel entry/exits we see kernel samples, even though :u is specified. This is due to skid existing. This might be a security issue because it can leak kernel addresses even though kernel sampling support is disabled. The patch drops the kernel samples if exclude_kernel is specified.

2017-05-26perf/tracing/cpuhotplug: Fix locking orderThomas Gleixner
perf, tracing, kprobes and jump_labels have a gazillion of ways to create dependency lock chains. Some of those involve nested invocations of get_online_cpus(). The conversion of the hotplug locking to a percpu rwsem requires to avoid such nested calls. sys_perf_event_open() protects most of the syscall logic against cpu hotplug. This causes nested calls and lock inversions versus ftrace and kprobes in various interesting ways. It's impossible to move the hotplug locking to the outer end of all call chains in the involved facilities, so the hotplug protection in sys_perf_event_open() needs to be solved differently. Introduce 'pmus_mutex' which protects a perf private online cpumask. This mutex is taken when the mask is updated in the cpu hotplug callbacks and can be taken in sys_perf_event_open() to protect the swhash setup/teardown code and when the final judgement about a valid event has to be made.

2017-05-10perf/callchain: Force USER_DS when invoking perf_callchain_user()Will Deacon
Perf can generate and record a user callchain in response to a synchronous request, such as a tracepoint firing. If this happens under set_fs(KERNEL_DS), then we can end up walking the user stack (and dereferencing/saving whatever we find there) without the protections usually afforded by checks such as access_ok. Rather than play whack-a-mole with each architecture's stack unwinding implementation, fix the root of the problem by ensuring that we force USER_DS when invoking perf_callchain_user from the perf core.

2017-03-16perf/core: Better explain the inherit magicPeter Zijlstra
While going through the event inheritance code Oleg got confused. Add some comments to better explain the silent dissapearance of orphaned events. So what happens is that at perf_event_release_kernel() time; when an event looses its connection to userspace (and ceases to exist from the user's perspective) we can still have an arbitrary amount of inherited copies of the event. We want to synchronously find and remove all these child events. Since that requires a bit of lock juggling, there is the possibility that concurrent clone()s will create new child events. Therefore we first mark the parent event as DEAD, which marks all the extant child events as orphaned. We then avoid copying orphaned events; in order to avoid getting more of them.

2017-03-13perf: Add PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES to include namespaces related infoHari Bathini
With the advert of container technologies like docker, that depend on namespaces for isolation, there is a need for tracing support for namespaces. This patch introduces new PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES event for recording namespaces related info. By recording info for every namespace, it is left to userspace to take a call on the definition of a container and trace containers by updating perf tool accordingly. Each namespace has a combination of device and inode numbers. Though every namespace has the same device number currently, that may change in future to avoid the need for a namespace of namespaces. Considering such possibility, record both device and inode numbers separately for each namespace.
