"As a first remark I'd like to point out that the obsolete '-f'
(--force) option, which has not done anything for several releases,
has been removed from 'perf record' and related utilities. Everyone
please update muscle memory accordingly! :-)
Main changes on the perf kernel side:
- Performance optimizations:
. for trace events, by Steve Rostedt.
. for time values, by Peter Zijlstra
- New hardware support:
. for Intel Silvermont (22nm Atom) CPUs, by Zheng Yan
. for Intel SNB-EP uncore PMUs, by Zheng Yan
- Enhanced hardware support:
. for Intel uncore PMUs: add filter support for QPI boxes, by Zheng Yan
- Core perf events code enhancements and fixes:
. for full-nohz feature handling, by Frederic Weisbecker
. for group events, by Jiri Olsa
. for call chains, by Frederic Weisbecker
. for event stream parsing, by Adrian Hunter
- New ABI details:
. Add attr->mmap2 attribute, by Stephane Eranian
. Add PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl to return event ID, by Jiri Olsa
. Export u64 time_zero on the mmap header page to allow TSC
calculation, by Adrian Hunter
. Add dummy software event, by Adrian Hunter.
. Add a new PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER to make samples always
parseable, by Adrian Hunter.

- Code cleanups and refactorings:
. for nohz-full, by Frederic Weisbecker
. for group events, by Jiri Olsa
- Documentation updates:
. for perf_event_type, by Peter Zijlstra
Main changes on the perf tooling side (some of these tooling changes
utilize the above kernel side changes):
- Lots of 'perf trace' enhancements:
. Make 'perf trace' command line arguments consistent with
'perf record', by David Ahern.
. Allow specifying syscalls a la strace, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Add --verbose and -o/--output options, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Support ! in -e expressions, to filter a list of syscalls,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Arg formatting improvements to allow masking arguments in
syscalls such as futex and open, where the some arguments are
ignored and thus should not be printed depending on other args,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Beautify futex open, openat, open_by_handle_at, lseek and futex
syscalls, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Add option to analyze events in a file versus live, so that
one can do:
[root@zoo ~]# perf record -a -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 25.150 MB perf.data (~1098836 samples) ]
[root@zoo ~]# perf trace -i perf.data -e futex --duration 1
17.799 ( 1.020 ms): 7127 futex(uaddr: 0x7fff3f6c6674, op: 393, val: 1, utime: 0x7fff3f6c6470, ua
113.344 (95.429 ms): 7127 futex(uaddr: 0x7fff3f6c6674, op: 393, val: 1, utime: 0x7fff3f6c6470, uaddr2: 0x7fff3f6c6648, val3: 4294967

. Introduce better formatting of syscall arguments, including so
far beautifiers for mmap, madvise, syscall return values,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Handle HUGEPAGE defines in the mmap beautifier, by David Ahern.
- 'perf report/top' enhancements:
. Do annotation using /proc/kcore and /proc/kallsyms when
available, removing the forced need for a vmlinux file kernel
assembly annotation. This also improves this use case because
vmlinux has just the initial kernel image, not what is actually
in use after various code patchings by things like alternatives.
By Adrian Hunter.
. Add --ignore-callees=<regex> option to collapse undesired parts
of call graphs, by Greg Price.

David Ahern.
. Do not require /lib/modules/* on a guest, by Jason Wessel.
- 'perf script' enhancements:
. Fix symbol offset computation for some dsos, by David Ahern.
. Fix named threads support, by David Ahern.
. Don't install scripting files files when perl/python support
is disabled, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

kallsyms" 'perf test' entry, related to the /proc/kcore
annotation feature. By Adrian Hunter.
. Add sample parsing test, by Adrian Hunter.
. Add test for reading object code, by Adrian Hunter.
. Add attr record group sampling test, by Jiri Olsa.
. Misc testing infrastructure improvements and other details,
by Jiri Olsa.

. Skip unsupported hardware events, by Namhyung Kim.
. List pmu events, by Andi Kleen.
- 'perf diff' enhancements:
. Add support for more than two files comparison, by Jiri Olsa.
- 'perf sched' enhancements:
. Various improvements, including removing reliance on some
scheduler tracepoints that provide the same information as the
PERF_RECORD_{FORK,EXIT} events. By David Ahern.
. Remove odd build stall by moving a large struct initialization
from a local variable to a global one, by Namhyung Kim.

to sample while the other events have just its values read,
by Jiri Olsa.
. Add support for a new modifier "D", which requests that the
event, or group of events, be pinned to the PMU.
By Michael Ellerman.
. Support callchain sorting based on addresses, by Andi Kleen
. Prep work for multi perf data file storage, by Jiri Olsa.
. libtraceevent cleanups, by Namhyung Kim.
And lots and lots of other fixes and code reorganizations that did not
make it into the list, see the shortlog, diffstat and the Git log for
details!"

Merge lockref infrastructure code by me and Waiman Long.
I already merged some of the preparatory patches that didn't actually do
any semantic changes earlier, but this merges the actual _reason_ for
those preparatory patches.
The "lockref" structure is a combination "spinlock and reference count"
that allows optimized reference count accesses. In particular, it
guarantees that the reference count will be updated AS IF the spinlock
was held, but using atomic accesses that cover both the reference count
and the spinlock words, we can often do the update without actually
having to take the lock.
This allows us to avoid the nastiest cases of spinlock contention on
large machines under heavy pathname lookup loads. When updating the
dentry reference counts on a large system, we'll still end up with the
cache line bouncing around, but that's much less noticeable than
actually having to spin waiting for the lock.
* lockref:
lockref: implement lockless reference count updates using cmpxchg()
lockref: uninline lockref helper functions
vfs: reimplement d_rcu_to_refcount() using lockref_get_or_lock()
vfs: use lockref_get_not_zero() for optimistic lockless dget_parent()
lockref: add 'lockref_get_or_lock() helper
Instead of taking the spinlock, the lockless versions atomically check
that the lock is not taken, and do the reference count update using a
cmpxchg() loop. This is semantically identical to doing the reference
count update protected by the lock, but avoids the "wait for lock"
contention that you get when accesses to the reference count are
contended.
Note that a "lockref" is absolutely _not_ equivalent to an atomic_t.
Even when the lockref reference counts are updated atomically with
cmpxchg, the fact that they also verify the state of the spinlock means
that the lockless updates can never happen while somebody else holds the
spinlock.
So while "lockref_put_or_lock()" looks a lot like just another name for
"atomic_dec_and_lock()", and both optimize to lockless updates, they are
fundamentally different: the decrement done by atomic_dec_and_lock() is
truly independent of any lock (as long as it doesn't decrement to zero),
so a locked region can still see the count change.
The lockref structure, in contrast, really is a *locked* reference
count. If you hold the spinlock, the reference count will be stable and
you can modify the reference count without using atomics, because even
the lockless updates will see and respect the state of the lock.
In order to enable the cmpxchg lockless code, the architecture needs to
do three things:
(1) Make sure that the "arch_spinlock_t" and an "unsigned int" can fit
in an aligned u64, and have a "cmpxchg()" implementation that works
on such a u64 data type.
(2) define a helper function to test for a spinlock being unlocked
("arch_spin_value_unlocked()")
(3) select the "ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF" config variable in its
Kconfig file.
This enables it for x86-64 (but not 32-bit, we'd need to make sure
cmpxchg() turns into the proper cmpxchg8b in order to enable it for
32-bit mode).

For performance reasons, when SMAP is in use, SMAP is left open for an
entire put_user_try { ... } put_user_catch(); block, however, calling
__put_user() in the middle of that block will close SMAP as the
STAC..CLAC constructs intentionally do not nest.
Furthermore, using __put_user() rather than put_user_ex() here is bad
for performance.
Thus, introduce new [compat_]save_altstack_ex() helpers that replace
__[compat_]save_altstack() for x86, being currently the only
architecture which supports put_user_try { ... } put_user_catch().

Update comment in uaccess.h to reflect the changes for clang support:
gcc only cares about the base register (most architectures don't
encode the size of the operation in the operands like x86 does, and so
it is treated effectively like a register number), whereas clang tries
to enforce the size -- but not for register pairs.

Clang does not support the "shortcut" we're taking here for gcc (see below).
The patch uses the macro _ASM_DX to do the job.
From arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h:
/*
* Careful: we have to cast the result to the type of the pointer
* for sign reasons.
*
* The use of %edx as the register specifier is a bit of a
* simplification, as gcc only cares about it as the starting point
* and not size: for a 64-bit value it will use %ecx:%edx on 32 bits
* (%ecx being the next register in gcc's x86 register sequence), and
* %rdx on 64 bits.
*/
[ hpa: I consider this a compatibility bug in clang as this reflects a
bit of a misunderstanding about how register strings are used by
gcc, but the workaround is straightforward and there is no
particular reason to not do it. ]

The __ASM_* macros (e.g. __ASM_DX) are used to return the proper
register name (e.g. edx for 32bit / rdx for 64bit). We want to use
this also in arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h / get_user() . For this
to work, we need a raw form as both gcc and clang choke on the
whitespace in a register asm() statement, and the __ASM_FORM macro
surrounds the argument with blanks. A new macro, __ASM_FORM_RAW was
added and we change __ASM_REG to use the new RAW form.

When programming ioapic pinX more than once, current code
does not check whether the later attr (trigger & polarity) is the
same as the former or not.
This causes broken semantics which can be observed in a qemu q35
machine, where ioapic's ioredtbl[x] can never be set as low-active,
even if the hpet driver registered it.
And hpet driver may share a high-level active IRQ line with other
devices. So in qemu, when hpet-dev asserts low-level as kernel
expects, the kernel has no response.
With this patch, we can observe an ioredtbl[x] set as low-active
for hpet.
Fix it by reporting -EBUSY to the caller, when attr is different.

This reverts commit df54d6fa54.
The commit isn't necessarily wrong, but because it recalculates the
random mmap_base every time, it seems to confuse user memory allocators
that expect contiguous mmap allocations even when the mmap address isn't
specified.
In particular, the MATLAB Java runtime seems to be unhappy. See
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60774
So we'll want to apply the random offset only once, and Radu has a patch
for that. Revert this older commit in order to apply the other one.

Based on a patch by Jon Mason (see URL below).
All users of pcie_bus_configure_settings() pass arguments of the form
"bus, bus->self->pcie_mpss". The "mpss" argument is redundant since we
can easily look it up internally. In addition, all callers check
"bus->self" for NULL, which we can also do internally.
This patch simplifies the interface and the callers. No functional change.

An older PVHVM guest (v3.0 based) crashed during vCPU hot-plug with:
kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events.c:1328!
RCU has detected that a CPU has not entered a quiescent state within the
grace period. It needs to send the CPU a reschedule IPI if it is not
offline. rcu_implicit_offline_qs() does this check:
/*
* If the CPU is offline, it is in a quiescent state. We can
* trust its state not to change because interrupts are disabled.
*/
if (cpu_is_offline(rdp->cpu)) {
rdp->offline_fqs++;
return 1;
}
Else the CPU is online. Send it a reschedule IPI.
The CPU is in the middle of being hot-plugged and has been marked online
(!cpu_is_offline()). See start_secondary():
set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true);
...
per_cpu(cpu_state, smp_processor_id()) = CPU_ONLINE;
start_secondary() then waits for the CPU bringing up the hot-plugged CPU to
mark it as active:
/*
* Wait until the cpu which brought this one up marked it
* online before enabling interrupts. If we don't do that then
* we can end up waking up the softirq thread before this cpu
* reached the active state, which makes the scheduler unhappy
* and schedule the softirq thread on the wrong cpu. This is
* only observable with forced threaded interrupts, but in
* theory it could also happen w/o them. It's just way harder
* to achieve.
*/
while (!cpumask_test_cpu(smp_processor_id(), cpu_active_mask))
cpu_relax();
/* enable local interrupts */
local_irq_enable();
The CPU being hot-plugged will be marked active after it has been fully
initialized by the CPU managing the hot-plug. In the Xen PVHVM case
xen_smp_intr_init() is called to set up the hot-plugged vCPU's
XEN_RESCHEDULE_VECTOR.
The hot-plugging CPU is marked online, not marked active and does not have
its IPI vectors set up. rcu_implicit_offline_qs() sees the hot-plugging
cpu is !cpu_is_offline() and tries to send it a reschedule IPI:
This will lead to:
kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events.c:1328!

__rcu_process_callbacks()
rcu_process_callbacks()
__do_softirq()
call_softirq()
do_softirq()
irq_exit()
xen_evtchn_do_upcall()
because xen_send_IPI_one() will attempt to use an uninitialized IRQ for
the XEN_RESCHEDULE_VECTOR.
There is at least one other place that has caused the same crash:
xen_smp_send_reschedule()
wake_up_idle_cpu()
add_timer_on()
clocksource_watchdog()
call_timer_fn()
run_timer_softirq()
__do_softirq()
call_softirq()
do_softirq()
irq_exit()
xen_evtchn_do_upcall()
xen_hvm_callback_vector()
clocksource_watchdog() uses cpu_online_mask to pick the next CPU to handle
a watchdog timer:
/*
* Cycle through CPUs to check if the CPUs stay synchronized
* to each other.
*/
next_cpu = cpumask_next(raw_smp_processor_id(), cpu_online_mask);
if (next_cpu >= nr_cpu_ids)
next_cpu = cpumask_first(cpu_online_mask);
watchdog_timer.expires += WATCHDOG_INTERVAL;
add_timer_on(&watchdog_timer, next_cpu);
This resulted in an attempt to send an IPI to a hot-plugging CPU that
had not initialized its reschedule vector. One option would be to make
the RCU code check to not check for CPU offline but for CPU active.
As becoming active is done after a CPU is online (in older kernels).
But Srivatsa pointed out that "the cpu_active vs cpu_online ordering has been
completely reworked - in the online path, cpu_active is set *before* cpu_online,
and also, in the cpu offline path, the cpu_active bit is reset in the CPU_DYING
notification instead of CPU_DOWN_PREPARE." Drilling in this the bring-up
path: "[brought up CPU].. send out a CPU_STARTING notification, and in response
to that, the scheduler sets the CPU in the cpu_active_mask. Again, this mask
is better left to the scheduler alone, since it has the intelligence to use it
judiciously."
The conclusion was that:
"
1. At the IPI sender side:
It is incorrect to send an IPI to an offline CPU (cpu not present in
the cpu_online_mask). There are numerous places where we check this
and warn/complain.
2. At the IPI receiver side:
It is incorrect to let the world know of our presence (by setting
ourselves in global bitmasks) until our initialization steps are complete
to such an extent that we can handle the consequences (such as
receiving interrupts without crashing the sender etc.)
" (from Srivatsa)
As the native code enables the interrupts at some point we need to be
able to service them. In other words a CPU must have valid IPI vectors
if it has been marked online.
It doesn't need to handle the IPI (interrupts may be disabled) but needs
to have valid IPI vectors because another CPU may find it in cpu_online_mask
and attempt to send it an IPI.
This patch will change the order of the Xen vCPU bring-up functions so that
Xen vectors have been set up before start_secondary() is called.
It also will not continue to bring up a Xen vCPU if xen_smp_intr_init() fails
to initialize it.

If there are UNUSABLE regions in the machine memory map, dom0 will
attempt to map them 1:1 which is not permitted by Xen and the kernel
will crash.
There isn't anything interesting in the UNUSABLE region that the dom0
kernel needs access to so we can avoid making the 1:1 mapping and
treat it as RAM.
We only do this for dom0, as that is where tboot case shows up.
A PV domU could have an UNUSABLE region in its pseudo-physical map
and would need to be handled in another patch.
This fixes a boot failure on hosts with tboot.
tboot marks a region in the e820 map as unusable and the dom0 kernel
would attempt to map this region and Xen does not permit unusable

It turns out that we missed increasing needed pages in BRK to
mapping initial 2M and [0,1M) when we switched to use the #PF
handler to set memory mappings:

> x86, 64bit: Use a #PF handler to materialize early mappings on demand
Before that, we had the maping from [0,512M) in head_64.S, and we
can spare two pages [0-1M). After that change, we can not reuse
pages anymore.
When we have more than 512M ram, we need an extra page for pgd page
with [512G, 1024g).
Increase pages in BRK for page table to solve the boot crash.

Prevent crash_kexec() from deadlocking on ioapic_lock. When
crash_kexec() is executed on a CPU, the CPU will take ioapic_lock
in disable_IO_APIC(). So if the cpu gets an NMI while locking
ioapic_lock, a deadlock will happen.
In this patch, ioapic_lock is zapped/initialized before disable_IO_APIC().
You can reproduce this deadlock the following way:
1. Add mdelay(1000) after raw_spin_lock_irqsave() in
native_ioapic_set_affinity()@arch/x86/kernel/apic/io_apic.c
Although the deadlock can occur without this modification, it will increase
the potential of the deadlock problem.
2. Build and install the kernel
3. Set up the OS which will run panic() and kexec when NMI is injected
# echo "kernel.unknown_nmi_panic=1" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
# vim /etc/default/grub
add "nmi_watchdog=0 crashkernel=256M" in GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX line
# grub2-mkconfig
4. Reboot the OS
5. Run following command for each vcpu on the guest
# while true; do echo <CPU num> > /proc/irq/<IO-APIC-edge or IO-APIC-fasteoi>/smp_affinitity; done;
By running this command, cpus will get ioapic_lock for setting affinity.
6. Inject NMI (push a dump button or execute 'virsh inject-nmi <domain>' if you
use VM). After injecting NMI, panic() is called in an nmi-handler context.
Then, kexec will normally run in panic(), but the operation will be stopped
by deadlock on ioapic_lock in crash_kexec()->machine_crash_shutdown()->
native_machine_crash_shutdown()->disable_IO_APIC()->clear_IO_APIC()->
clear_IO_APIC_pin()->ioapic_read_entry().

This patch adds support for the SNB-EP PCU uncore PMU extra_sel_bit
(bit 21) which is missing from the documentation in Table-2.75 of
Intel Xeon Processor E5-2600 Product Family Uncore Performance
Monitoring Guide. It is referred to later in Table-2.81. Without
this selection bit explicitly enabled by the kernel, some events
such as COREx_TRANSITION_CYCLES do not count correctly.
