On processors with Intel Hybrid Technology (i.e., one having more than one type of CPU in the same package), all CPUs support the same instruction set and enumerate the same features on CPUID. Thus, all software can run on any CPU without restrictions. However, there may be model-specific differences among types of CPUs. For instance, each type of CPU may support a different number of performance counters. Also, machine check error banks may be wired differently. Even though most software will not care about these differences, kernel subsystems dealing with these differences must know. Add and expose a new helper function get_this_hybrid_cpu_type() to query the type of the current hybrid CPU. The function will be used later in the perf subsystem. The Intel Software Developer's Manual defines the CPU type as 8-bit identifier.

Add feature enumeration to identify a processor with Intel Hybrid Technology: one in which CPUs of more than one type are the same package. On a hybrid processor, all CPUs support the same homogeneous (i.e., symmetric) instruction set. All CPUs enumerate the same features in CPUID. Thus, software (user space and kernel) can run and migrate to any CPU in the system as well as utilize any of the enumerated features without any change or special provisions. The main difference among CPUs in a hybrid processor are power and performance properties.

This patch adds a new software event to count context switches involving cgroup switches. So it's counted only if cgroups of previous and next tasks are different. Note that it only checks the cgroups in the perf_event subsystem. For cgroup v2, it shouldn't matter anyway. One can argue that we can do this by using existing sched_switch event with eBPF. But some systems might not have eBPF for some reason so I'd like to add this as a simple way.

The 'running' variable is only used in the P4 PMU. Current perf sets the variable in the critical function x86_pmu_start(), which wastes cycles for everybody not running on P4. Move cpuc->running into the P4 specific p4_pmu_enable_event(). Add a static per-CPU 'p4_running' variable to replace the 'running' variable in the struct cpu_hw_events. Saves space for the generic structure. The p4_pmu_enable_all() also invokes the p4_pmu_enable_event(), but it should not set cpuc->running. Factor out __p4_pmu_enable_event() for p4_pmu_enable_all().

Add a kselftest for testing process-wide perf events with synchronous SIGTRAP on events (using breakpoints). In particular, we want to test that changes to the event propagate to all children, and the SIGTRAPs are in fact synchronously sent to the thread where the event occurred. Note: The "signal_stress" test case is also added later in the series to perf tool's built-in tests. The test here is more elaborate in that respect, which on one hand avoids bloating the perf tool unnecessarily, but we also benefit from structured tests with TAP-compliant output that the kselftest framework provides.

Marco Elver authored
Adds bit perf_event_attr::sigtrap, which can be set to cause events to send SIGTRAP (with si_code TRAP_PERF) to the task where the event occurred. The primary motivation is to support synchronous signals on perf events in the task where an event (such as breakpoints) triggered. To distinguish perf events based on the event type, the type is set in si_errno. For events that are associated with an address, si_addr is copied from perf_sample_data. The new field perf_event_attr::sig_data is copied to si_perf, which allows user space to disambiguate which event (of the same type) triggered the signal. For example, user space could encode the relevant information it cares about in sig_data. We note that the choice of an opaque u64 provides the simplest and most flexible option. Alternatives where a reference to some user space data is passed back suffer from the problem that modification of referenced data (be it the event fd, or the perf_event_attr) can race with the signal being delivered (of course, the same caveat applies if user space decides to store a pointer in sig_data, but the ABI explicitly avoids prescribing such a design).

Make perf_event_exit_event() more robust, such that we can use it from other contexts. Specifically the up and coming remove_on_exec. For this to work we need to address a few issues. Remove_on_exec will not destroy the entire context, so we cannot rely on TASK_TOMBSTONE to disable event_function_call() and we thus have to use perf_remove_from_context(). When using perf_remove_from_context(), there's two races to consider. The first is against close(), where we can have concurrent tear-down of the event. The second is against child_list iteration, which should not find a half baked event. To address this, teach perf_remove_from_context() to special case !ctx->is_active and about DETACH_CHILD.

Turns out, the default setting of attr.aux_watermark to half of the total buffer size is not very useful, especially with smaller buffers. The problem is that, after half of the buffer is filled up, the kernel updates ->aux_head and sets up the next "transaction", while observing that ->aux_tail is still zero (as userspace haven't had the chance to update it), meaning that the trace will have to stop at the end of this second "transaction". This means, for example, that the second PERF_RECORD_AUX in every trace comes with TRUNCATED flag set. Setting attr.aux_watermark to quarter of the buffer gives enough space for the ->aux_tail update to be observed and prevents the data loss. The obligatory before/after showcase: > # perf_before record -e intel_pt//u -m,8 uname > Linux > [ perf record: Woken up 6 times to write data ] > Warning: > AUX data lost 4 times out of 10! > > [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.099 MB perf.data ] > # perf record -e intel_pt//u -m,8 uname > Linux > [ perf record: Woken up 4 times to write data ] > [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.039 MB perf.data ] The effect is still visible with large workloads and large buffers, although less pronounced.

Currently, we start allocating AUX pages half the size of the total requested AUX buffer size, ignoring the attr.aux_watermark setting. This, in turn, makes intel_pt driver disregard the watermark also, as it uses page order for its SG (ToPA) configuration. Now, this can be fixed in the intel_pt PMU driver, but seeing as it's the only one currently making use of high order allocations, there is no reason not to fix the allocator instead. This way, any other driver wishing to add this support would not have to worry about this.

IIO stacks to PMON mapping on Skylake servers is exposed through introduced early attributes /sys/devices/uncore_iio_<pmu_idx>/dieX, where dieX is a file which holds "Segment:Root Bus" for PCIe root port which can be monitored by that IIO PMON block. These sysfs attributes are disabled for multiple segment topologies except VMD domains which start at 0x10000. This patch removes the limitation and enables IIO stacks to PMON mapping for multi-segment Skylake servers by introducing segment-aware intel_uncore_topology structure and attributing the topology configuration to the segment in skx_iio_get_topology() function.

Perf will use a similar method to the PCI sub driver to register the PMUs for the PCI type of uncore blocks. The method requires a BUS notifier to support hotplug. The current BUS notifier cannot be reused, because it searches a const id_table for the corresponding registered PMU. The PCI type of uncore blocks in the discovery tables doesn't provide an id_table. Factor out uncore_bus_notify() and add the pointer of an id_table as a parameter. The uncore_bus_notify() will be reused in the following patch. The current BUS notifier is only used by the PCI sub driver. Its name is too generic. Rename it to uncore_pci_sub_notifier, which is specific for the PCI sub driver.

A self-describing mechanism for the uncore PerfMon hardware has been introduced with the latest Intel platforms. By reading through an MMIO page worth of information, perf can 'discover' all the standard uncore PerfMon registers in a machine. The discovery mechanism relies on BIOS's support. With a proper BIOS, a PCI device with the unique capability ID 0x23 can be found on each die. Perf can retrieve the information of all available uncore PerfMons from the device via MMIO. The information is composed of one global discovery table and several unit discovery tables. - The global discovery table includes global uncore information of the die, e.g., the address of the global control register, the offset of the global status register, the number of uncore units, the offset of unit discovery tables, etc. - The unit discovery table includes generic uncore unit information, e.g., the access type, the counter width, the address of counters, the address of the counter control, the unit ID, the unit type, etc. The unit is also called "box" in the code. Perf can provide basic uncore support based on this information with the following patches. To locate the PCI device with the discovery tables, check the generic PCI ID first. If it doesn't match, go through the entire PCI device tree and locate the device with the unique capability ID. The uncore information is similar among dies. To save parsing time and space, only completely parse and store the discovery tables on the first die and the first box of each die. The parsed information is stored in an RB tree structure, intel_uncore_discovery_type. The size of the stored discovery tables varies among platforms. It's around 4KB for a Sapphire Rapids server. If a BIOS doesn't support the 'discovery' mechanism, the uncore driver will exit with -ENODEV. There is nothing changed. Add a module parameter to disable the discovery feature. If a BIOS gets the discovery tables wrong, users can have an option to disable the feature. For the current patchset, the uncore driver will exit with -ENODEV. In the future, it may fall back to the hardcode uncore driver on a known platform.

Currently, the lockdown state is queried unconditionally, even though its result is used only if the PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_INTR bit is set in attr.sample_type. While that doesn't matter in case of the Lockdown LSM, it causes trouble with the SELinux's lockdown hook implementation. SELinux implements the locked_down hook with a check whether the current task's type has the corresponding "lockdown" class permission ("integrity" or "confidentiality") allowed in the policy. This means that calling the hook when the access control decision would be ignored generates a bogus permission check and audit record. Fix this by checking sample_type first and only calling the hook when its result would be honored.

The kernel can allocate a lot of struct perf_event when profiling. For example, 256 cpu x 8 events x 20 cgroups = 40K instances of the struct would be allocated on a large system. The size of struct perf_event in my setup is 1152 byte. As it's allocated by kmalloc, the actual allocation size would be rounded up to 2K. Then there's 896 byte (~43%) of waste per instance resulting in total ~35MB with 40K instances. We can create a dedicated kmem_cache to avoid such a big unnecessary memory consumption. With this change, I can see below (note this machine has 112 cpus). # grep perf_event /proc/slabinfo perf_event 224 784 1152 7 2 : tunables 24 12 8 : slabdata 112 112 0 The sixth column is pages-per-slab which is 2, and the fifth column is obj-per-slab which is 7. Thus actually it can use 1152 x 7 = 8064 byte in the 8K, and wasted memory is (8192 - 8064) / 7 = ~18 byte per instance.

Pull locking fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A couple of locking fixes: - A fix for the static_call mechanism so it handles unaligned addresses correctly. - Make u64_stats_init() a macro so every instance gets a seperate lockdep key. - Make seqcount_latch_init() a macro as well to preserve the static variable which is used for the lockdep key" * tag 'locking-urgent-2021-03-14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: seqlock,lockdep: Fix seqcount_latch_init() u64_stats,lockdep: Fix u64_stats_init() vs lockdep static_call: Fix the module key fixup

Pull perf fixes from Borislav Petkov: - Make sure PMU internal buffers are flushed for per-CPU events too and properly handle PID/TID for large PEBS. - Handle the case properly when there's no PMU and therefore return an empty list of perf MSRs for VMX to switch instead of reading random garbage from the stack. * tag 'perf_urgent_for_v5.12-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/perf: Use RET0 as default for guest_get_msrs to handle "no PMU" case perf/x86/intel: Set PERF_ATTACH_SCHED_CB for large PEBS and LBR perf/core: Flush PMU internal buffers for per-CPU events

Pull x86 fixes from Borislav Petkov: - A couple of SEV-ES fixes and robustifications: verify usermode stack pointer in NMI is not coming from the syscall gap, correctly track IRQ states in the #VC handler and access user insn bytes atomically in same handler as latter cannot sleep. - Balance 32-bit fast syscall exit path to do the proper work on exit and thus not confuse audit and ptrace frameworks. - Two fixes for the ORC unwinder going "off the rails" into KASAN redzones and when ORC data is missing. * tag 'x86_urgent_for_v5.12_rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/sev-es: Use __copy_from_user_inatomic() x86/sev-es: Correctly track IRQ states in runtime #VC handler x86/sev-es: Check regs->sp is trusted before adjusting #VC IST stack x86/sev-es: Introduce ip_within_syscall_gap() helper x86/entry: Fix entry/exit mismatch on failed fast 32-bit syscalls x86/unwind/orc: Silence warnings caused by missing ORC data x86/unwind/orc: Disable KASAN checking in the ORC unwinder, part 2

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman: "Some more powerpc fixes for 5.12: - Fix wrong instruction encoding for lis in ppc_function_entry(), which could potentially lead to missed kprobes. - Fix SET_FULL_REGS on 32-bit and 64e, which prevented ptrace of non-volatile GPRs immediately after exec. - Clean up a missed SRR specifier in the recent interrupt rework. - Don't treat unrecoverable_exception() as an interrupt handler, it's called from other handlers so shouldn't do the interrupt entry/exit accounting itself. - Fix build errors caused by missing declarations for [en/dis]able_kernel_vsx().
