It's been tested for man target but the others seems currently broken so no tests have been done on them so far.

By adding following objects: bench/mem-memset-x86-64-asm.o bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o the x86_64 perf binary ended up with executable stack. The reason was that above objects are assembler sourced and are missing the GNU-stack note section. In such case the linker assumes that the final binary should not be restricted at all and mark the stack as RWX.

This patch fixes an issue where perf report shows nan% for certain perf.data files. The below is from a report for a do_fork probe: -nan% sshd [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork -nan% packagekitd [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork -nan% dbus-daemon [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork -nan% bash [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork A git bisect shows commit f3bda2c9 as the cause. However, looking back through the git history, I saw commit 640c03ce which seems to have removed the required initialization for perf_sample->period. The problem only started showing after commit f3bda2c9. The below patch re-introduces the initialization and it fixes the problem for me. With the below patch, for the same perf.data: 73.08% bash [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork 8.97% 11-dhclient [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork 6.41% sshd [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork 3.85% 20-chrony [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork 2.56% sendmail [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork This patch applies over current linux-tip commit 9949284.

In some perf ancient versions we used '[kernel.kallsyms._text]' as the name for the kernel map. This got changed with commit: perf: 'perf kvm' tool for monitoring guest performance from host commit a1645ce1 Author: Zhang, Yanmin <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> and we started to use following name '[kernel.kallsyms]_text'. This name change is important for the report code dealing with ancient perf data. When processing the kernel map event, we need to recognize the old naming (dont match the last ']') and initialize the kernel map correctly. The subsequent call to maps__set_kallsyms_ref_reloc_sym deals with the superfluous ']' to get correct symbol name.

With the new throttling/unthrottling code introduced with commit: e050e3f0 ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling") we occasionally hit two WARN_ON_ONCE() checks in: - intel_pmu_pebs_enable() - intel_pmu_lbr_enable() - x86_pmu_start() The assertions are no longer problematic. There is a valid path where they can trigger but it is harmless. The assertion can be triggered with: $ perf record -e instructions:pp .... Leading to paths: intel_pmu_pebs_enable intel_pmu_enable_event x86_perf_event_set_period x86_pmu_start perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context perf_event_task_tick scheduler_tick And: intel_pmu_lbr_enable intel_pmu_enable_event x86_perf_event_set_period x86_pmu_start perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context. perf_event_task_tick scheduler_tick cpuc->enabled is always on because when we get to perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context() the PMU is not totally disabled. Furthermore when we need to adjust a period, we only stop the event we need to change and not the entire PMU. Thus, when we re-enable, cpuc->enabled is already set. Note that when we stop the event, both pebs and lbr are stopped if necessary (and possible).

The rbd_client structure uses a kref to arrange for cleaning up and freeing an instance when its last reference is dropped. The cleanup routine is rbd_client_release(), and one of the things it does is delete the rbd_client from rbd_client_list. It acquires node_lock to do so, but the way it is done is still not safe. The problem is that when attempting to reuse an existing rbd_client, the structure found might already be in the process of getting destroyed and cleaned up. Here's the scenario, with "CLIENT" representing an existing rbd_client that's involved in the race: Thread on CPU A | Thread on CPU B --------------- | --------------- rbd_put_client(CLIENT) | rbd_get_client() kref_put() | (acquires node_lock) kref->refcount becomes 0 | __rbd_client_find() returns CLIENT calls rbd_client_release() | kref_get(&CLIENT->kref); | (releases node_lock) (acquires node_lock) | deletes CLIENT from list | ...and starts using CLIENT... (releases node_lock) | and frees CLIENT | <-- but CLIENT gets freed here Fix this by having rbd_put_client() acquire node_lock. The result could still be improved, but at least it avoids this problem. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <elder@dreamhost.com> Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>

This fixes the race in process_vm_core found by Oleg (see http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1235667/ for details). This has been updated since I last sent it as the creation of the new mm_access() function did almost exactly the same thing as parts of the previous version of this patch did. In order to use mm_access() even when /proc isn't enabled, we move it to kernel/fork.c where other related process mm access functions already are.

Lockdep was reporting a possible circular lock dependency in dentry_lease_is_valid(). That function needs to sample the session's s_cap_gen and and s_cap_ttl fields coherently, but needs to do so while holding a dentry lock. The s_cap_lock field was being used to protect the two fields, but that can't be taken while holding a lock on a dentry within the session. In most cases, the s_cap_gen and s_cap_ttl fields only get operated on separately. But in three cases they need to be updated together. Implement a new lock to protect the spots updating both fields atomically is required. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <elder@dreamhost.com> Reviewed-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>

Sage Weil authored
Initializing debufs under monc->mutex introduces a lock dependency for sb->s_type->i_mutex_key, which (combined with several other dependencies) leads to an annoying lockdep warning. There's no particular reason to do the debugfs setup under this lock, so move it out. It used to be the case that our first monmap could come from the OSD; that is no longer the case with recent servers, so we will reliably set up the client entry during the initial authentication. We don't have to worry about racing with debugfs teardown by ceph_debugfs_client_cleanup() because ceph_destroy_client() calls ceph_msgr_flush() first, which will wait for the message dispatch work to complete (and the debugfs init to complete).

The virtual extended attribute named "ceph.layout" is meaningful only for regular files. Change its name to be "ceph.file.layout" to more directly reflect that in the ceph xattr namespace. Preserve the old "ceph.layout" name for the time being (until we decide it's safe to get rid of it entirely). Add a missing initializer for "readonly" in the terminating entry.

Evergreen and NI blit copy was broken if the buffer maps to a rectangle whose one dimension is 16384 (max dimension allowed by these chips). In the mainline kernel, the problem is exposed only when buffers are very large (1G), but it's still a problem. The problem could be exposed for smaller buffers if anyone modifies the algorithm for rectangle construction in r600_blit_create_rect() (the reason why someone would modify that algorithm is to tune the performance of buffer moves). The root cause was in i2f() function which only operated on range between 0 and 16383. Fix this by extending the range of i2f() function to 0 to 32767. While at it improve the function so that the range can be easily extended in the future (if it becomes necessary), cleanup lines over 80 characters, and replace in-line comments with one strategic comment that explains the crux of the function. Credits to michel@daenzer.net for pointing out the root cause of the bug. v2: Fix I2F_MAX_INPUT constant definition goof and warn only once if input argument is out of range.

Once /proc/pid/mem is opened, the memory can't be released until mem_release() even if its owner exits. Change mem_open() to do atomic_inc(mm_count) + mmput(), this only pins mm_struct. Change mem_rw() to do atomic_inc_not_zero(mm_count) before access_remote_vm(), this verifies that this mm is still alive. I am not sure what should mem_rw() return if atomic_inc_not_zero() fails. With this patch it returns zero to match the "mm == NULL" case, may be it should return -EINVAL like it did before e268337d. Perhaps it makes sense to add the additional fatal_signal_pending() check into the main loop, to ensure we do not hold this memory if the target task was oom-killed.
