The SMP implementation of __futex_atomic_op clobbers oldval with the status flag from the exclusive store. This causes it to always read as zero when performing the FUTEX_OP_CMP_* operation. This patch updates the ARM __futex_atomic_op implementations to take a tmp argument, allowing us to store the strex status flag without overwriting the register containing oldval.

If CPM mode is not used, the fsl_dummy_rx variable is never allocated. When the cleanup attempts to free it, the reference count is zero and a WARN is generated. The same CPM mode check used in the initialize is applied to the free as well. Tested on 2.6.33 with the previous spi_mpc8xxx driver. The renamed spi-fsl-spi driver looks to have the same problem.

GCC often introduces new warnings with lots of false positives - breaking -Werror builds. WERROR=0 allows one to build perf without much fuss - while still encouraging people to send patches to avoid the fuss of having to type WERROR=0. Bisecting back to commits that produce a (mostly harmless) warning on some compilers is more difficult. With WERROR=0 one could bisect without worrying about harmless warnings.

Buildid can vary in size. According to the man page of ld, buildid can be 160 bits (sha1) or 128 bits (md5, uuid). Perf assumes buildid size of 20 bytes (160 bits) regardless. When dealing with md5 buildids, it would thus read more than needed and that would cause mismatches and samples without symbols. This patch fixes this by taking into account the actual buildid size as encoded int he section header. The leftover bytes are also cleared. This second version fixes a minor issue with the memset() base position. Cc: David S.

Currently, analyzing PPC data files on x86 the cpu field is always 0 and the tid and pid are backwards. For example, analyzing a PPC file on PPC the pid/tid fields show: rsyslogd 1210/1212 and analyzing the same PPC file using an x86 perf binary shows: rsyslogd 1212/1210 The problem is that the swap_op method for samples is perf_event__all64_swap which assumes all elements in the sample_data struct are u64s. cpu, tid and pid are u32s and need to be handled individually. Given that the swap is done before the sample is parsed, the simplest solution is to undo the 64-bit swap of those elements when the sample is parsed and do the proper swap. The RAW data field is generic and perf cannot have programmatic knowledge of how to treat that data. Instead a warning is given to the user. Thanks to Anton Blanchard for providing a data file for a mult-CPU PPC system so I could verify the fix for the CPU fields. v3 -> v4: - fixed use of WARN_ONCE v2 -> v3: - used WARN_ONCE for message regarding raw data - removed struct wrapper around union - fixed whitespace issues v1 -> v2: - added a union for undoing the byte-swap on u64 and redoing swap on u32's to address compiler errors (see git commit 65014ab3) Cc: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1315321946-16993-1-git-send-email-dsahern@gmail.comSigned-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

I took a profile that suggested 60% of total CPU time was in the hypervisor: ... 60.20% [H] 0x33d43c 4.43% [k] ._spin_lock_irqsave 1.07% [k] ._spin_lock Using perf stat to get the user/kernel/hypervisor breakdown contradicted this. The problem is we merge all unresolved samples into the one unknown bucket. If add a comparison by sample type to sort__sym_cmp we get the real picture: ... 57.11% [.] 0x80fbf63c 4.43% [k] ._spin_lock_irqsave 1.07% [k] ._spin_lock 0.65% [H] 0x33d43c So it was almost all userspace, not hypervisor as the initial profile suggested. I found another issue while adding this. Symbol sorting sometimes shows multiple entries for the unknown bucket: ... 16.65% [.] 0x6cd3a8 7.25% [.] 0x422460 5.37% [.] yylex 4.79% [.] malloc 4.78% [.] _int_malloc 4.03% [.] _int_free 3.95% [.] hash_source_code_string 2.82% [.] 0x532908 2.64% [.] 0x36b538 0.94% [H] 0x8000000000e132a4 0.82% [H] 0x800000000000e8b0 This happens because we aren't consistent with our sorting. On one hand we check to see if both symbols match and for two unresolved samples sym is NULL so we match: if (left->ms.sym == right->ms.sym) return 0; On the other hand we use sample IP for unresolved samples when comparing against a symbol: ip_l = left->ms.sym ? left->ms.sym->start : left->ip; ip_r = right->ms.sym ? right->ms.sym->start : right->ip; This means unresolved samples end up spread across the rbtree and we can't merge them all. If we use cmp_null all unresolved samples will end up in the one bucket and the output makes more sense: ... 39.12% [.] 0x36b538 5.37% [.] yylex 4.79% [.] malloc 4.78% [.] _int_malloc 4.03% [.] _int_free 3.95% [.] hash_source_code_string 2.26% [H] 0x800000000000e8b0 Acked-by: Eric B Munson <emunson@mgebm.net> Cc: Eric B Munson <emunson@mgebm.net> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Ian Munsie <imunsie@au1.ibm.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110831115145.4f598ab2@krytenSigned-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events does not create anonymous mmap events even though the kernel does. As a result an already running application with dynamically created code will not get profiled - all samples end up in the unknown bucket. This patch skips any entries with '[' in the name to avoid adding events for special regions (eg the vsyscall page). All other executable mmaps are assumed to be anonymous and an event is synthesized.

perf-record currently creates events enabled. When doing a system wide collection (-a arg) this causes data collection for perf's initialization activities -- eg., perf_event__synthesize_threads(). For some events (e.g., context switch S/W event or tracepoints like syscalls) perf's initialization causes a lot of events to be captured frequently generating "Check IO/CPU overload!" warnings on larger systems (e.g., 2 socket, quad core, hyperthreading). perf's initialization phase can be skipped by creating events disabled and then enabling them once the initialization is done.

kallsyms__parse assumes that /proc/kallsyms is sorted and sets the end of the previous symbol to the start of the current one. Unfortunately module symbols are not sorted, eg: ffffffffa0081f30 t e1000_clean_rx_irq [e1000e] ffffffffa00817a0 t e1000_alloc_rx_buffers [e1000e] Some symbols end up with a negative length and others have a length larger than they should. This results in confusing perf output. We already have a function to fixup the end of zero length symbols so use that instead.

Fix to call convert_variable() if previous call does not fail. To call convert_variable, it ensures "ret" is 0. However, since "ret" has the return value of synthesize_perf_probe_arg() which always returns positive value if it succeeded, perf probe doesn't call convert_variable(). This will cause a SEGV when we add an event with arguments. This has to be fixed as it ensures "ret" is greater than 0 (or not negative). This regression has been introduced by my previous patch, f182e3e1.

This patch changes the call of tpm_transmit by supplying the size of the userspace buffer instead of TPM_BUFSIZE. This got assigned CVE-2011-1161. [The first hunk didn't make sense given one could expect way less data than TPM_BUFSIZE, so added tpm_transmit boundary check over bufsiz instead The last parameter of tpm_transmit() reflects the amount of data expected from the device, and not the buffer size being supplied to it. It isn't ideal to parse it directly, so we just set it to the maximum the input buffer can handle and let the userspace API to do such job.] Signed-off-by: Rajiv Andrade <srajiv@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Stable Kernel <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>

As the Amiga Zorro II address space is limited to 8.5 MiB and Zorro devices can contain only one BAR, several Amiga Zorro II expansion boards (mainly graphics cards) contain multiple Zorro devices: a small one for the control registers and one (or more) for the graphics memory. The conversion of cirrusfb to the new driver framework introduced a regression: the driver contains a zorro_driver for the first Zorro device, and uses the (old) zorro_find_device() call to find the second Zorro device. However, as the Zorro core calls device_register() as soon as a Zorro device is identified, it may not have identified the second Zorro device belonging to the same physical Zorro expansion card. Hence cirrusfb could no longer find the second part of the Picasso II graphics card, causing a NULL pointer dereference. Defer the registration of Zorro devices with the driver framework until all Zorro devices have been identified to fix this. Note that the alternative solution (modifying cirrusfb to register a zorro_driver for all Zorro devices belonging to a graphics card, instead of only for the first one, and adding a synchronization mechanism to defer initialization until all have been found), is not an option, as on some cards one device may be optional (e.g. the second bank of 2 MiB of graphics memory on the Picasso IV in Zorro II mode).
