There are bug reports about miscounting uncore counters on some
client machines like Sandybridge, Broadwell and Skylake. It is
very likely to be observed on idle systems.

This issue is caused by a hardware issue. PERF_GLOBAL_CTL could be
cleared after Package C7, and nothing will be count.
The related errata (HSD 158) could be found in:

  www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/specification-updates/4th-gen-core-family-desktop-specification-update.pdf

This patch tries to work around this issue by re-enabling PERF_GLOBAL_CTL
in ->enable_box(). The workaround does not cover all cases. It helps for new
events after returning from C7. But it cannot prevent C7, it will still
miscount if a counter is already active.

There is no drawback in leaving it enabled, so it does not need
disable_box() here.

Some uncore boxes' num_counters value for Haswell server and
Broadwell server are not correct (too large, off by one).

This issue was found by comparing the code with the document. Although
there is no bug report from users yet, accessing non-existent counters
is dangerous and the behavior is undefined: it may cause miscounting or
even crashes.

This patch makes them consistent with the uncore document.

Since instruction decoder now supports EVEX-encoded instructions, two fixes
are needed to correctly handle them in uprobes.

Extended bits for MODRM.rm field need to be sanitized just like we do it
for VEX3, to avoid encoding wrong register for register-relative access.

EVEX has _two_ extended bits: b and x. Theoretically, EVEX.x should be
ignored by the CPU (since GPRs go only up to 15, not 31), but let's be
paranoid here: proper encoding for register-relative access
should have EVEX.x = 1.

Secondly, we should fetch vex.vvvv for EVEX too.
This is now super easy because instruction decoder populates
vex_prefix.bytes[2] for all flavors of (e)vex encodings, even for VEX2.

There's a perf stat bug easy to observer on a machine with only one cgroup:

  $ perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -C 0 -G /
  #          time             counts unit events
      1.000161699      <not counted>      cycles                    /
      2.000355591      <not counted>      cycles                    /
      3.000565154      <not counted>      cycles                    /
      4.000951350      <not counted>      cycles                    /

We'd expect some output there.

The underlying problem is that there is an optimization in
perf_cgroup_sched_{in,out}() that skips the switch of cgroup events
if the old and new cgroups in a task switch are the same.

This optimization interacts with the current code in two ways
that cause a CPU context's cgroup (cpuctx->cgrp) to be NULL even if a
cgroup event matches the current task. These are:

  1. On creation of the first cgroup event in a CPU: In current code,
  cpuctx->cpu is only set in perf_cgroup_sched_in, but due to the
  aforesaid optimization, perf_cgroup_sched_in will run until the next
  cgroup switches in that CPU. This may happen late or never happen,
  depending on system's number of cgroups, CPU load, etc.

  2. On deletion of the last cgroup event in a cpuctx: In list_del_event,
  cpuctx->cgrp is set NULL. Any new cgroup event will not be sched in
  because cpuctx->cgrp == NULL until a cgroup switch occurs and
  perf_cgroup_sched_in is executed (updating cpuctx->cgrp).

This patch fixes both problems by setting cpuctx->cgrp in list_add_event,
mirroring what list_del_event does when removing a cgroup event from CPU
context, as introduced in:

  commit 68cacd29 ("perf_events: Fix stale ->cgrp pointer in update_cgrp_time_from_cpuctx()")

With this patch, cpuctx->cgrp is always set/clear when installing/removing
the first/last cgroup event in/from the CPU context. With cpuctx->cgrp
correctly set, event_filter_match works as intended when events are
sched in/out.

After the fix, the output is as expected:

  $ perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -a -G /
  #         time             counts unit events
     1.004699159          627342882      cycles                    /
     2.007397156          615272690      cycles                    /
     3.010019057          616726074      cycles                    /

The latter seems like the simplest solution. Moving the list-add later
creates a bit of a mess.

Merge tag 'perf-urgent-for-mingo-20160809' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

User visible fixes:

- Fix the lookup for a kernel module in 'perf probe', fixing for instance, the
  erroneous return of "[raid10]" when looking for "[raid1]"  (Konstantin Khlebnikov)

- Disable counters in a group before reading them in 'perf stat', to avoid skew (Mark Rutland)

- Fix adding probes to function aliases in systems using kaslr (Masami Hiramatsu)

- Trip libtraceevent trace_seq buffers, removing unnecessary memory usage that could
  bring a system using tracepoint events with 'perf top' to a crawl, as the trace_seq
  buffers start at a whooping 4 KB, which is very rarely used in perf's usecases,
  so realloc it to the really used space as a last measure after using libtraceevent
  functions to format the fields of tracepoint events (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fix 'perf probe' location when using DWARF on ppc64le (Ravi Bangoria)

- Allow specifying signedness casts to a 'perf probe' variable, to shorten
  the number of steps to see signed values that otherwise would always appear
  as hex values (Naohiro Aota)

Documentation fixes:

- Add 'bpf-output' field to 'perf script' usage message (Brendan Gregg)

Infrastructure fixes:

- Sync kernel header files: cpufeatures.h, {disabled,required}-features.h,
  bpf.h and vmx.h, so that we get a clean build, without warnings about files
  being different from the kernel counterparts.

  A verification of the need or desirability of changes in tools/ based on what
  was done in the kernel changesets was made and documented in the respective
  file sync changesets (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Powerpc has Global Entry Point and Local Entry Point for functions.  LEP
catches call from both the GEP and the LEP. Symbol table of ELF contains
GEP and Offset from which we can calculate LEP, but debuginfo does not
have LEP info.

Currently, perf prioritize symbol table over dwarf to probe on LEP for
ppc64le. But when user tries to probe with function parameter, we fall
back to using dwarf(i.e. GEP) and when function called via LEP, probe
will never hit.

For example:

  $ objdump -d vmlinux
    ...
    do_sys_open():
    c0000000002eb4a0:       e8 00 4c 3c     addis   r2,r12,232
    c0000000002eb4a4:       60 00 42 38     addi    r2,r2,96
    c0000000002eb4a8:       a6 02 08 7c     mflr    r0
    c0000000002eb4ac:       d0 ff 41 fb     std     r26,-48(r1)

  $ sudo ./perf probe do_sys_open
  $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
    p:probe/do_sys_open _text+3060904

  $ sudo ./perf probe 'do_sys_open filename:string'
  $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
    p:probe/do_sys_open _text+3060896 filename_string=+0(%gpr4):string

For second case, perf probed on GEP. So when function will be called via
LEP, probe won't hit.

  $ sudo ./perf record -a -e probe:do_sys_open ls
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.195 MB perf.data ]

To resolve this issue, let's not prioritize symbol table, let perf
decide what it wants to use. Perf is already converting GEP to LEP when
it uses symbol table. When perf uses debuginfo, let it find LEP offset
form symbol table. This way we fall back to probe on LEP for all cases.

After patch:

  $ sudo ./perf probe 'do_sys_open filename:string'
  $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
    p:probe/do_sys_open _text+3060904 filename_string=+0(%gpr4):string

  $ sudo ./perf record -a -e probe:do_sys_open ls
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.197 MB perf.data (11 samples) ]

The way we're using kernel headers in tools/ now, with a copy that is
made to the same path prefixed by "tools/" plus checking if that copy
got stale, i.e. if the kernel counterpart changed, helps in keeping
track with new features that may be useful for tools to exploit.

For instance, looking at all the changes to bpf.h since it was last
copied to tools/include brings this to toolers' attention:

Need to investigate this one to check how to run a program via perf, setting up
a BPF event, that will take advantage of the way perf already calls clang/LLVM,
sets up the event and runs the workload in a single command line, helping in
debugging such semi cooperative programs:

  96ae5227 ("bpf: Add bpf_probe_write_user BPF helper to be called in tracers")

This one needs further investigation about using the feature it improves
in 'perf trace' to do some tcpdumpin' mixed with syscalls, tracepoints,
probe points, callgraphs, etc:

  555c8a86 ("bpf: avoid stack copy and use skb ctx for event output")

Add tracing just packets that are related to some container to that mix:

  4a482f34 ("cgroup: bpf: Add bpf_skb_in_cgroup_proto")
  4ed8ec52 ("cgroup: bpf: Add BPF_MAP_TYPE_CGROUP_ARRAY")

Definetely needs to have example programs accessing task_struct from a bpf proggie
started from 'perf trace':

  606274c5 ("bpf: introduce bpf_get_current_task() helper")

Core networking related, XDP:

  6ce96ca3 ("bpf: add XDP_TX xdp_action for direct forwarding")

The 'perf probe' tool detects a variable's type and use the detected
type to add a new probe. Then, kprobes prints its variable in
hexadecimal format if the variable is unsigned and prints in decimal if
it is signed.

We sometimes want to see unsigned variable in decimal format (i.e.
sector_t or size_t). In that case, we need to investigate the variable's
size manually to specify just signedness.

This patch add signedness casting support. By specifying "s" or "u" as a
type, perf-probe will investigate variable size as usual and use the
specified signedness.

E.g. without this:

  $ perf probe -a 'submit_bio bio->bi_iter.bi_sector'
  Added new event:
    probe:submit_bio     (on submit_bio with bi_sector=bio->bi_iter.bi_sector)
  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
          perf record -e probe:submit_bio -aR sleep 1
  $ cat trace_pipe|head
          dbench-9692  [003] d..1   971.096633: submit_bio: (submit_bio+0x0/0x140) bi_sector=0x3a3d00

...
  // need to investigate the variable size
  $ perf probe -a 'submit_bio bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s64'
  Added new event:
    probe:submit_bio     (on submit_bio with bi_sector=bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s64)
  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
        perf record -e probe:submit_bio -aR sleep 1

  With this:

  // just use "s" to cast its signedness
  $ perf probe -v -a 'submit_bio bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s'
  Added new event:
    probe:submit_bio     (on submit_bio with bi_sector=bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s)

  This commit also update perf-probe.txt to describe "types". Most parts
  are based on existing documentation: Documentation/trace/kprobetrace.txt

Committer note:

Testing using 'perf trace':

  # perf probe -a 'submit_bio bio->bi_iter.bi_sector'
  Added new event:
    probe:submit_bio     (on submit_bio with bi_sector=bio->bi_iter.bi_sector)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe:submit_bio -aR sleep 1

  # trace --no-syscalls --ev probe:submit_bio
      0.000 probe:submit_bio:(ffffffffac3aee00) bi_sector=0xc133c0)

When we don't have a tracee (i.e. we're attaching to a task or CPU),
counters can still be running after our workload finishes, and can still
be running as we read their values. As we read events one-by-one, there
can be arbitrary skew between values of events, even within a group.
This means that ratios within an event group are not reliable.

This skew can be seen if measuring a group of identical events, e.g:

  # perf stat -a -C0 -e '{cycles,cycles}' sleep 1

To avoid this, we must stop groups from counting before we read the
values of any constituent events. This patch adds and makes use of a new
disable_counters() helper, which disables group leaders (and thus each
group as a whole). This mirrors the use of enable_counters() for
starting event groups in the absence of a tracee.

Closing a group leader splits the group, and without a disabled group
leader the newly split events will begin counting. Thus to ensure counts
are reliable we must defer closing group leaders until all counts have
been read. To do so this patch removes the event closing logic from the
read_counters() helper, explicitly closes the events using
perf_evlist__close(), which also aids legibility.

When we use libtraceevent to format trace event fields into printable
strings to use in hist entries it is important to trim it from the
default 4 KiB it starts with to what is really used, to reduce the
memory footprint, so use realloc(seq.buffer, seq.len + 1) when returning
the seq.buffer formatted with the fields contents.

When I initially added the unsafe_[get|put]_user() helpers in commit
5b24a7a2 ("Add 'unsafe' user access functions for batched
accesses"), I made the mistake of modeling the interface on our
traditional __[get|put]_user() functions, which return zero on success,
or -EFAULT on failure.

That interface is fairly easy to use, but it's actually fairly nasty for
good code generation, since it essentially forces the caller to check
the error value for each access.

In particular, since the error handling is already internally
implemented with an exception handler, and we already use "asm goto" for
various other things, we could fairly easily make the error cases just
jump directly to an error label instead, and avoid the need for explicit
checking after each operation.

So switch the interface to pass in an error label, rather than checking
the error value in the caller.  Best do it now before we start growing
more users (the signal handling code in particular would be a good place
to use the new interface).

So rather than

	if (unsafe_get_user(x, ptr))
		... handle error ..

the interface is now

	unsafe_get_user(x, ptr, label);

where an error during the user mode fetch will now just cause a jump to
'label' in the caller.

Right now the actual _implementation_ of this all still ends up being a
"if (err) goto label", and does not take advantage of any exception
label tricks, but for "unsafe_put_user()" in particular it should be
fairly straightforward to convert to using the exception table model.

Note that "unsafe_get_user()" is much harder to convert to a clever
exception table model, because current versions of gcc do not allow the
use of "asm goto" (for the exception) with output values (for the actual
value to be fetched).  But that is hopefully not a limitation in the
long term.

[ Also note that it might be a good idea to switch unsafe_get_user() to
  actually _return_ the value it fetches from user space, but this
  commit only changes the error handling semantics ]

In commit 874f9c7d ("printk: create pr_<level> functions"), new
pr_level defines were added to printk.c.

These new defines are guarded by an #ifdef CONFIG_PRINTK - however,
there is already a surrounding #ifdef CONFIG_PRINTK starting a lot
earlier in line 249 which means the newly introduced #ifdef is
unnecessary.

Let's remove it to avoid confusion.

Since commit 63a4cc24, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower
portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that
old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
at compile time instead of at runtime.

No intended functional changes in this commit.

The original commit missed this function, it needs to mark it a
write flush.

Cleaner than manipulating bio->bi_rw flags directly.
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

Commit abf54548 changed it from an 'rw' flags type to the
newer ops based interface, but now we're effectively leaking
some bdev internals to the rest of the kernel. Since we only
care about whether it's a read or a write at that level, just
pass in a bool 'is_write' parameter instead.

Then we can also move op_is_write() and friends back under
CONFIG_BLOCK protection.

Pull binfmt_misc update from James Bottomley:
 "This update is to allow architecture emulation containers to function
  such that the emulation binary can be housed outside the container
  itself.  The container and fs parts both have acks from relevant
  experts.

  To use the new feature you have to add an F option to your binfmt_misc
  configuration"

From the docs:
 "The usual behaviour of binfmt_misc is to spawn the binary lazily when
  the misc format file is invoked.  However, this doesn't work very well
  in the face of mount namespaces and changeroots, so the F mode opens
  the binary as soon as the emulation is installed and uses the opened
  image to spawn the emulator, meaning it is always available once
  installed, regardless of how the environment changes"

In most cases, EPERM is returned on immutable inode, and there're only a
few places returning EACCES. I noticed this when running LTP on
overlayfs, setxattr03 failed due to unexpected EACCES on immutable
inode.

So converting all EACCES to EPERM on immutable inode.

Merge tag 'xfs-rmap-for-linus-4.8-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs

Pull more xfs updates from Dave Chinner:
 "This is the second part of the XFS updates for this merge cycle, and
  contains the new reverse block mapping feature for XFS.

  Reverse mapping allows us to track the owner of a specific block on
  disk precisely.  It is implemented as a set of btrees (one per
  allocation group) that track the owners of allocated extents.
  Effectively it is a "used space tree" that is updated when we allocate
  or free extents.  i.e. it is coherent with the free space btrees we
  already maintain and never overlaps with them.

  This reverse mapping infrastructure is the building block of several
  upcoming features - reflink, copy-on-write data, dedupe, online
  metadata and data scrubbing, highly accurate bad sector/data loss
  reporting to users, and significantly improved reconstruction of
  damaged and corrupted filesystems.  There's a lot of new stuff coming
  along in the next couple of cycles,a nd it all builds in the rmap
  infrastructure.

  As such, it's a huge chunk of new code with new on-disk format
  features and internal infrastructure.  It warns at mount time as an
  experimental feature and that it may eat data (as we do with all new
  on-disk features until they stabilise).  We have not released
  userspace suport for it yet - userspace support currently requires
  download from Darrick's xfsprogs repo and build from source, so the
  access to this feature is really developer/tester only at this point.
  Initial userspace support will be released at the same time kernel
  with this code in it is released.

  The new rmap enabled code regresses 3 xfstests - all are ENOSPC
  related corner cases, one of which Darrick posted a fix for a few
  hours ago.  The other two are fixed by infrastructure that is part of
  the upcoming reflink patchset.  This new ENOSPC infrastructure
  requires a on-disk format tweak required to keep mount times in
  check - we need to keep an on-disk count of allocated rmapbt blocks so
  we don't have to scan the entire btrees at mount time to count them.

  This is currently being tested and will be part of the fixes sent in
  the next week or two so users will not be exposed to this change"
