New race in x86_pmu_stop() was introduced by replacing the atomic __test_and_clear_bit() of cpuc->active_mask by separate test_bit() and __clear_bit() calls in the following commit: 3966c3fe ("x86/perf/amd: Remove need to check "running" bit in NMI handler") The race causes panic for PEBS events with enabled callchains: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000 ...

The event is configured to make samples from PEBS drain code, but when it's disabled, we'll go through NMI path instead, where data->callchain will not get allocated and we'll crash: x86_pmu_stop test_bit(hwc->idx, cpuc->active_mask) intel_pmu_disable_event(event) { ... intel_pmu_pebs_disable(event); ...

Now that all AUX allocations are high-order by default, the software double buffering PMU capability doesn't make sense any more, get rid of it.

This recent commit: 5768402f ("perf/ring_buffer: Use high order allocations for AUX buffers optimistically") overlooked the fact that the previous one page granularity of the AUX buffer provided an implicit double buffering capability to the PMU driver, which went away when the entire buffer became one high-order page. Always make the full-trace mode AUX allocation at least two-part to preserve the previous behavior and allow the implicit double buffering to continue.

We were including sys/syscall.h and asm/unistd.h, since sys/syscall.h includes asm/unistd.h, sometimes this leads to the redefinition of defines, breaking the build. Noticed on ARC with uCLibc.

Since those were introduced in: c8ce48f0 ("asm-generic: Make time32 syscall numbers optional") But when the asm-generic/unistd.h was sync'ed with tools/ in: 1a787fc5 ("tools headers uapi: Sync copy of asm-generic/unistd.h with the kernel sources") I forgot to copy the files for the architectures that define __ARCH_WANT_TIME32_SYSCALLS, so the perf build was breaking there, as reported by Vineet Gupta for the ARC architecture. After updating my ARC container to use the glibc based toolchain + cross building libnuma, zlib and elfutils, I finally managed to reproduce the problem and verify that this now is fixed and will not regress as will be tested before each pull req sent upstream.

Robert Walker reported a segmentation fault is observed when process CoreSight trace data; this issue can be easily reproduced by the command 'perf report --itrace=i1000i' for decoding tracing data. If neither the 'b' flag (synthesize branches events) nor 'l' flag (synthesize last branch entries) are specified to option '--itrace', cs_etm_queue::prev_packet will not been initialised. After merging the code to support exception packets and sample flags, there introduced a number of uses of cs_etm_queue::prev_packet without checking whether it is valid, for these cases any accessing to uninitialised prev_packet will cause crash. As cs_etm_queue::prev_packet is used more widely now and it's already hard to follow which functions have been called in a context where the validity of cs_etm_queue::prev_packet has been checked, this patch always allocates memory for cs_etm_queue::prev_packet.

An -ENOMEM error is not reported in the GTK GUI. Instead this error message pops up on the screen: [root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf report -i perf.data.error68-1 Processing events...

The GUI always fails in the FINISHED_ROUND event (68) and does not indicate the reason why. When happened is the following. Perf report calls a lot of functions and down deep when a FINISHED_ROUND event is processed, these functions are called: perf_session__process_event() + perf_session__process_user_event() + process_finished_round() + ordered_events__flush() + __ordered_events__flush() + do_flush() + ordered_events__deliver_event() + perf_session__deliver_event() + machine__deliver_event() + perf_evlist__deliver_event() + process_sample_event() + hist_entry_iter_add() --> only called in GUI case!!! + hist_iter__report__callback() + symbol__inc_addr_sample() Now this functions runs out of memory and returns -ENOMEM. This is reported all the way up until function perf_session__process_event() returns to its caller, where -ENOMEM is changed to -EINVAL and processing stops: if ((skip = perf_session__process_event(session, event, head)) < 0) { pr_err("%#" PRIx64 " [%#x]: failed to process type: %d\n", head, event->header.size, event->header.type); err = -EINVAL; goto out_err; } This occurred in the FINISHED_ROUND event when it has to process some 10000 entries and ran out of memory. This patch indicates the root cause and displays it in the status line of ther perf report GUI.

So, since RUSAGE_THREAD is available as a define, check for that and numactl libraries, I ended up with the above failure. So, since RUSAGE_THREAD is available as a define in the system headers, check if it is defined in the 'perf bench numa' sources and define it if not. Now it builds and I have to figure out if the problem reported by Vineet only takes place if we have libelf or some other library available.

The traceevent lib is used by the perf tool, and when executing perf test -v 6 it outputs error log on the ARM64 platform: running test 33 '*:*'trace-cmd: No such file or directory [...] trace-cmd: Invalid argument The trace event parsing code originally came from trace-cmd so it keeps the tag string "trace-cmd" for errors, this easily introduces the impression that the perf tool launches trace-cmd command for trace event parsing, but in fact the related parsing is accomplished by the traceevent lib. This patch changes the tag string to "libtraceevent" so that we can avoid confusion and let users to more easily connect the error with traceevent lib.

Add a new amd_hw_cache_event_ids_f17h assignment structure set for AMD families 17h and above, since a lot has changed. Specifically: L1 Data Cache The data cache access counter remains the same on Family 17h. For DC misses, PMCx041's definition changes with Family 17h, so instead we use the L2 cache accesses from L1 data cache misses counter (PMCx060,umask=0xc8). For DC hardware prefetch events, Family 17h breaks compatibility for PMCx067 "Data Prefetcher", so instead, we use PMCx05a "Hardware Prefetch DC Fills." L1 Instruction Cache PMCs 0x80 and 0x81 (32-byte IC fetches and misses) are backward compatible on Family 17h. For prefetches, we remove the erroneous PMCx04B assignment which counts how many software data cache prefetch load instructions were dispatched. LL - Last Level Cache Removing PMCs 7D, 7E, and 7F assignments, as they do not exist on Family 17h, where the last level cache is L3. L3 counters can be accessed using the existing AMD Uncore driver. Data TLB On Intel machines, data TLB accesses ("dTLB-loads") are assigned to counters that count load/store instructions retired. This is inconsistent with instruction TLB accesses, where Intel implementations report iTLB misses that hit in the STLB. Ideally, dTLB-loads would count higher level dTLB misses that hit in lower level TLBs, and dTLB-load-misses would report those that also missed in those lower-level TLBs, therefore causing a page table walk. That would be consistent with instruction TLB operation, remove the redundancy between dTLB-loads and L1-dcache-loads, and prevent perf from producing artificially low percentage ratios, i.e. the "0.01%" below: 42,550,869 L1-dcache-loads 41,591,860 dTLB-loads 4,802 dTLB-load-misses # 0.01% of all dTLB cache hits 7,283,682 L1-dcache-stores 7,912,392 dTLB-stores 310 dTLB-store-misses On AMD Families prior to 17h, the "Data Cache Accesses" counter is used, which is slightly better than load/store instructions retired, but still counts in terms of individual load/store operations instead of TLB operations. So, for AMD Families 17h and higher, this patch assigns "dTLB-loads" to a counter for L1 dTLB misses that hit in the L2 dTLB, and "dTLB-load-misses" to a counter for L1 DTLB misses that caused L2 DTLB misses and therefore also caused page table walks. This results in a much more accurate view of data TLB performance: 60,961,781 L1-dcache-loads 4,601 dTLB-loads 963 dTLB-load-misses # 20.93% of all dTLB cache hits Note that for all AMD families, data loads and stores are combined in a single accesses counter, so no 'L1-dcache-stores' are reported separately, and stores are counted with loads in 'L1-dcache-loads'. Also note that the "% of all dTLB cache hits" string is misleading because (a) "dTLB cache": although TLBs can be considered caches for page tables, in this context, it can be misinterpreted as data cache hits because the figures are similar (at least on Intel), and (b) not all those loads (technically accesses) technically "hit" at that hardware level. "% of all dTLB accesses" would be more clear/accurate. Instruction TLB On Intel machines, 'iTLB-loads' measure iTLB misses that hit in the STLB, and 'iTLB-load-misses' measure iTLB misses that also missed in the STLB and completed a page table walk. For AMD Family 17h and above, for 'iTLB-loads' we replace the erroneous instruction cache fetches counter with PMCx084 "L1 ITLB Miss, L2 ITLB Hit". For 'iTLB-load-misses' we still use PMCx085 "L1 ITLB Miss, L2 ITLB Miss", but set a 0xff umask because without it the event does not get counted. Branch Predictor (BPU) PMCs 0xc2 and 0xc3 continue to be valid across all AMD Families. Node Level Events Family 17h does not have a PMCx0e9 counter, and corresponding counters have not been made available publicly, so for now, we mark them as unsupported for Families 17h and above.

The 'extent_type' variable does seem to be reliably initialized, but it's _very_ non-obvious, since there's a "goto next" case that jumps over the normal initialization. That will then always trigger the "start >= extent_end" test, which will end up never falling through to the use of that variable. But the code is certainly not obvious, and the compiler warning looks reasonable. Make 'extent_type' an int, and initialize it to an invalid negative value, which seems to be the common pattern in other places. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The pvlock_page and hvclock_page variables are (as the name implies) addresses to pages, created by the linker script. But we declared them as just "extern u8" variables, which _works_, but now that gcc does some more bounds checking, it causes warnings like warning: array subscript 1 is outside array bounds of ‘u8[1]’ when we then access more than one byte from those variables. Fix this by simply making the declaration of the variables match reality, which makes the compiler happy too. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@-linux-foundation.org>

I'm not sure what made gcc warn about this code now. The 'ret' variable does end up initialized in all cases, but it's definitely not obvious, so the compiler is quite reasonable to warn about this. So just add initialization to make it all much more obvious both to compilers and to humans. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

We already did this for clang, but now gcc has that warning too. Yes, yes, the address may be unaligned. And that's kind of the point. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Revert commit c8b1917c ("ACPICA: Clear status of GPEs before enabling them") that causes problems with Thunderbolt controllers to occur if a dock device is connected at init time (the xhci_hcd and thunderbolt modules crash which prevents peripherals connected through them from working). Commit c8b1917c effectively causes commit ecc1165b ("ACPICA: Dispatch active GPEs at init time") to get undone, so the problem addressed by commit ecc1165b appears again as a result of it.

This doesn't really do anything, but at least we now parse teh ZERO_PAGE() address argument so that we'll catch the most obvious errors in usage next time they'll happen. See commit 6a5c5d26 ("rdma: fix build errors on s390 and MIPS due to bad ZERO_PAGE use") what happens when we don't have any use of the macro argument at all.

The parameter to ZERO_PAGE() was wrong, but since all architectures except for MIPS and s390 ignore it, it wasn't noticed until 0-day reported the build error.

fanotify_get_fsid() is reading mark->connector->fsid under srcu. It can happen that it sees mark not fully initialized or mark that is already detached from the object list. In these cases mark->connector can be NULL leading to NULL ptr dereference. Fix the problem by being careful when reading mark->connector and check it for being NULL. Also use WRITE_ONCE when writing the mark just to prevent compiler from doing something stupid.

The first is not a regression but fixes the locking to avoid a user-triggerable deadlock. The second does fix a regression since rc1, and depends on the first fix.
