Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"On the kernel side the main changes in this cycle were:
- Add Intel Kaby Lake CPU support (Srinivas Pandruvada)
- AMD uncore driver updates for fam17 (Janakarajan Natarajan)
- Intel/PT updates and core events optimizations and cleanups
(Alexander Shishkin)
- cgroups events fixes (David Carrillo-Cisneros)
- kprobes improvements (Masami Hiramatsu)
- ... plus misc fixes and updates.
On the tooling side the main changes were:
- Support clang build in tools/{perf,lib/{bpf,traceevent,api}} with
CC=clang, to, for instance, take advantage of better warnings
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo):
- Introduce the 'delta-abs' 'perf diff' compute method, that orders
the histogram entries by the absolute value of the percentage delta
for a function in two perf.data files, i.e. the functions that
changed the most (increase or decrease in samples) comes first
(Namhyung Kim)
- Add support for parsing Intel uncore vendor event files and add
uncore vendor events for the Intel server processors (Haswell,
Broadwell, IvyBridge), Xeon Phi (Knights Landing) and Broadwell DE
(Andi Kleen)
- Introduce 'perf ftrace' a perf front end to the kernel's ftrace
function and function_graph tracer, defaulting to the
"function_graph" tracer, more work will be done in reviving this
effort, forward porting it from its initial patch submission
(Namhyung Kim)
- Add 'e' and 'c' hotkeys to expand/collapse call chains for a single
hist entry in the 'perf report' and 'perf top' TUI (Jiri Olsa)
- Account thread wait time (off CPU time) separately: sleep, iowait
and preempt, based on the prev_state of the last event, show the
breakdown when using "perf sched timehist --state" (Namhyumg Kim)
- Add more triggers to switch the output file (perf.data.TIMESTAMP).
Now, in addition to switching to a different output file when
receiving a SIGUSR2, one can also specify file size and time based
triggers:
perf record -a --switch-output=signal
is equivalent to what we had before:
perf record -a --switch-output
While we can also ask for the file to be "sliced" by size, taking
into account that that will happen only when we get woken up by the
kernel, i.e. one has to take into account the --mmap-pages (the
size of the perf mmap ring buffer):
perf record -a --switch-output=2G
will break the perf.data output into multiple files limited to 2GB
of samples, right when generating the output.
For time based samples, alert() will be used, so to have 1 minute
limited perf.data output files:
perf record -a --switch-output=1m
(Jiri Olsa)
- Improve 'perf trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- 'perf kallsyms' toy tool to look for extended symbol information on
the running kernel and demonstrate the machine/thread/symbol APIs
for use in other tools, such as 'perf probe' (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)
- ... plus tons of other changes, see the shortlog and Git log for
details"

commit 82e88ff1ea94 ("hrtimer: Revert CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW support") removed
unfortunately a sanity check in the hrtimer code which was part of that
MONOTONIC_RAW patch series.
It would have caught the bogus usage of CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW in the wireless
code. So bring it back.
It is way too easy to take any random clockid and feed it to the hrtimer
subsystem. At best, it gets mapped to a monotonic base, but it would be
better to just catch illegal values as early as possible.
Detect invalid clockids, map them to CLOCK_MONOTONIC and emit a warning.

7bdb59f1ad47 ("tick/nohz: Fix possible missing clock reprog after tick
soft restart") that depends on it,
Pavel reports that it causes occasional boot hangs for him that seem to
depend on just how the machine was booted. In particular, his machine
hangs at around the PCI fixups of the EHCI USB host controller, but only
hangs from cold boot, not from a warm boot.
Thomas Gleixner suspecs it's a CPU hotplug interaction, particularly
since Pavel also saw suspend/resume issues that seem to be related.
We're reverting for now while trying to figure out the root cause.

Although irqreturn_t is an enum, we treat it (and its enumeration
constants) as a bitmask.
However, bad_action_ret() uses a less-than operator to determine whether
an irqreturn_t falls within allowable bit values, which means we need to
know the signededness of an enum type to read the logic, which is
implementation-dependent.
This change explicitly uses an unsigned type for the comparison. We do
this instead of changing to a bitwise test, as the latter compiles to
increased instructions in this hot path.
It looks like we get the correct behaviour currently (bad_action_ret(-1)
returns 1), so this is purely a readability fix.

The UEVENT user mode helper is enabled before the initcalls are executed
and is available when the root filesystem has been mounted.
The user mode helper is triggered by device init calls and the executable
might use the futex syscall.
futex_init() is marked __initcall which maps to device_initcall, but there
is no guarantee that futex_init() is invoked _before_ the first device init
call which triggers the UEVENT user mode helper.
If the user mode helper uses the futex syscall before futex_init() then the
syscall crashes with a NULL pointer dereference because the futex subsystem
has not been initialized yet.
Move futex_init() to core_initcall so futexes are initialized before the
root filesystem is mounted and the usermode helper becomes available.

tick_broadcast_lock is taken from interrupt context, but the following call
chain takes the lock without disabling interrupts:
[ 12.703736] _raw_spin_lock+0x3b/0x50
[ 12.703738] tick_broadcast_control+0x5a/0x1a0
[ 12.703742] intel_idle_cpu_online+0x22/0x100
[ 12.703744] cpuhp_invoke_callback+0x245/0x9d0
[ 12.703752] cpuhp_thread_fun+0x52/0x110
[ 12.703754] smpboot_thread_fn+0x276/0x320
So the following deadlock can happen:
lock(tick_broadcast_lock);
<Interrupt>
lock(tick_broadcast_lock);
intel_idle_cpu_online() is the only place which violates the calling
convention of tick_broadcast_control(). This was caused by the removal of
the smp function call in course of the cpu hotplug rework.
Instead of slapping local_irq_disable/enable() at the call site, we can
relax the calling convention and handle it in the core code, which makes
the whole machinery more robust.

If BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE flag is used in BPF_PROG_ATTACH command
to the given cgroup the descendent cgroup will be able to override
effective bpf program that was inherited from this cgroup.
By default it's not passed, therefore override is disallowed.
Examples:
1.
prog X attached to /A with default
prog Y fails to attach to /A/B and /A/B/C
Everything under /A runs prog X
2.
prog X attached to /A with allow_override.
prog Y fails to attach to /A/B with default (non-override)
prog M attached to /A/B with allow_override.
Everything under /A/B runs prog M only.
3.
prog X attached to /A with allow_override.
prog Y fails to attach to /A with default.
The user has to detach first to switch the mode.
In the future this behavior may be extended with a chain of
non-overridable programs.
Also fix the bug where detach from cgroup where nothing is attached
was not throwing error. Return ENOENT in such case.
Add several testcases and adjust libbpf.

ts->next_tick keeps track of the next tick deadline in order to optimize
clock programmation on irq exit and avoid redundant clock device writes.
Now if ts->next_tick missed an update, we may spuriously miss a clock
reprog later as the nohz code is fooled by an obsolete next_tick value.
This is what happens here on a specific path: when we observe an
expired timer from the nohz update code on irq exit, we perform a soft
tick restart which simply fires the closest possible tick without
actually exiting the nohz mode and restoring a periodic state. But we
forget to update ts->next_tick accordingly.
As a result, after the next tick resulting from such soft tick restart,
the nohz code sees a stale value on ts->next_tick which doesn't match
the clock deadline that just expired. If that obsolete ts->next_tick
value happens to collide with the actual next tick deadline to be
scheduled, we may spuriously bypass the clock reprogramming. In the
worst case, the tick may never fire again.
Fix this with a ts->next_tick reset on soft tick restart.

While supporting file-based address filters for CPU events requires some
extra context switch handling, kernel address filters are easy, since the
kernel mapping is preserved across address spaces. It is also useful as
it permits tracing scheduling paths of the kernel.
This patch allows setting up kernel filters for CPU events.

It is currently possible to configure a kernel address filter for a
event that excludes kernel from its traces (attr.exclude_kernel==1).
While in reality this doesn't make sense, the SET_FILTER ioctl() should
return a error in such case, currently it does not. Furthermore, it
will still silently discard the filter and any potentially valid filters
that came with it.
This patch makes the SET_FILTER ioctl() error out in such cases.

That's happening because each printk() call now gets printed on its own
line, and we do a separate call to print the spaces before the symbol.
Fix it by doing the printk() directly instead of using the

It was observed that on an Intel x86 system without the ARAT (Always
running APIC timer) feature and with fairly large number of CPUs as
well as CPUs coming in and out of intel_idle frequently, the lock
contention on the tick_broadcast_lock can become significant.
To reduce contention, the lock is put into its own cacheline and all
the cpumask_var_t variables are put into the __read_mostly section.

16-core 32-thread Nehalam system, the performance number improved
from 3353.94 Mop/s to 3469.31 Mop/s when this patch was applied on

The modversion symbol CRCs are emitted as ELF symbols, which allows us
to easily populate the kcrctab sections by relying on the linker to
associate each kcrctab slot with the correct value.
This has a couple of downsides:
- Given that the CRCs are treated as memory addresses, we waste 4 bytes
for each CRC on 64 bit architectures,
- On architectures that support runtime relocation, a R_<arch>_RELATIVE
relocation entry is emitted for each CRC value, which identifies it
as a quantity that requires fixing up based on the actual runtime
load offset of the kernel. This results in corrupted CRCs unless we
explicitly undo the fixup (and this is currently being handled in the
core module code)
- Such runtime relocation entries take up 24 bytes of __init space
each, resulting in a x8 overhead in [uncompressed] kernel size for
CRCs.
Switching to explicit 32 bit values on 64 bit architectures fixes most
of these issues, given that 32 bit values are not treated as quantities
that require fixing up based on the actual runtime load offset. Note
that on some ELF64 architectures [such as PPC64], these 32-bit values
are still emitted as [absolute] runtime relocatable quantities, even if
the value resolves to a build time constant. Since relative relocations
are always resolved at build time, this patch enables MODULE_REL_CRCS on
powerpc when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, which turns the absolute CRC
references into relative references into .rodata where the actual CRC
value is stored.
So redefine all CRC fields and variables as u32, and redefine the
__CRC_SYMBOL() macro for 64 bit builds to emit the CRC reference using
inline assembler (which is necessary since 64-bit C code cannot use
32-bit types to hold memory addresses, even if they are ultimately
resolved using values that do not exceed 0xffffffff). To avoid
potential problems with legacy 32-bit architectures using legacy
toolchains, the equivalent C definition of the kcrctab entry is retained
for 32-bit architectures.
Note that this mostly reverts commit d4703aefdbc8 ("module: handle ppc64
relocating kcrctabs when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y")

The hwlat tracer creates a kernel thread at start of the tracer. It is
pinned to a single CPU and will move to the next CPU after each period of
running. If the user modifies the migration thread's affinity, it will not
change after that happens.
The original code created the thread at the first instance it was called,
but later was changed to destroy the thread after the tracer was finished,
and would not be created until the next instance of the tracer was
established. The code that initialized the affinity was only called on the
initial instantiation of the tracer. After that, it was not initialized, and
the previous affinity did not match the current newly created one, making
it appear that the user modified the thread's affinity when it did not, and
the thread failed to migrate again.

Since commit f3b0946d629c ("genirq/msi: Make sure PCI MSIs are
activated early"), we can end-up activating a PCI/MSI twice (once
at allocation time, and once at startup time).
This is normally of no consequences, except that there is some
HW out there that may misbehave if activate is used more than once
(the GICv3 ITS, for example, uses the activate callback
to issue the MAPVI command, and the architecture spec says that
"If there is an existing mapping for the EventID-DeviceID
combination, behavior is UNPREDICTABLE").
While this could be worked around in each individual driver, it may
make more sense to tackle the issue at the core level. In order to
avoid getting in that situation, let's have a per-interrupt flag
to remember if we have already activated that interrupt or not.

perf has additional overhead when monitoring the task which
frequently generates child tasks.
perf_init_event() is one of the hotspots for the additional overhead:
Currently, to get the PMU, it tries to search the type in pmu_idr at
first. But it is not always successful, especially for the widely used
PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE and PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE events. So it has to go to the
slow path which go through the whole PMUs list.
It will be a big performance issue, if the PMUs list is long (e.g. server
with many uncore boxes) and the task frequently generates child tasks.
The child event inherits its parent event. So the child event should
try its parent PMU first.
Here is some data from the overhead test on Broadwell server:
perf record -e $TEST_EVENTS -- ./loop.sh 50000
loop.sh
start=$(date +%s%N)
i=0
while [ "$i" -le "$1" ]

When new events are added to an active context, we go and reschedule
all cpu groups and all task groups in order to preserve the priority
(cpu pinned, task pinned, cpu flexible, task flexible), but in
reality we only need to reschedule groups of the same priority as
that of the events being added, and below.
This patch changes the behavior so that only groups that need to be

cpuctx->unique_pmu was originally introduced as a way to identify cpuctxs
with shared pmus in order to avoid visiting the same cpuctx more than once
in a for_each_pmu loop.
cpuctx->unique_pmu == cpuctx->pmu in non-software task contexts since they
have only one pmu per cpuctx. Since perf_pmu_sched_task() is only called in
hw contexts, this patch replaces cpuctx->unique_pmu by cpuctx->pmu in it.
The change above, together with the previous patch in this series, removed
the remaining uses of cpuctx->unique_pmu, so we remove it altogether.

This patch follows from a conversation in CQM/CMT's last series about
speeding up the context switch for cgroup events:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9478617/
This is a low-hanging fruit optimization. It replaces the iteration over
the "pmus" list in cgroup switch by an iteration over a new list that
contains only cpuctxs with at least one cgroup event.
This is necessary because the number of PMUs have increased over the years
e.g modern x86 server systems have well above 50 PMUs.
The iteration over the full PMU list is unneccessary and can be costly in
heavy cache contention scenarios.
Below are some instrumentation measurements with 10, 50 and 90 percentiles
of the total cost of context switch before and after this optimization for
a simple array read/write microbenchark.
Contention
Level Nr events Before (us) After (us) Median
L2 L3 types (10%, 50%, 90%) (10%, 50%, 90% Speedup
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Low Low 1 (1.72, 2.42, 5.85) (1.35, 1.64, 5.46) 29%
High Low 1 (2.08, 4.56, 19.8) (1720, 2.20, 13.7) 51%
High High 1 (2.86, 10.4, 12.7) (2.54, 4.32, 12.1) 58%
Low Low 2 (1.98, 3.20, 6.89) (1.68, 2.41, 8.89) 24%
High Low 2 (2.48, 5.28, 22.4) (2150, 3.69, 14.6) 30%
High High 2 (3.32, 8.09, 13.9) (2.80, 5.15, 13.7) 36%
where:
1 event type = cycles
2 event types = cycles,intel_cqm/llc_occupancy/
Contention L2 Low: workset < L2 cache size.
High: " >> L2 " " .
Contention L3 Low: workset of task on all sockets < L3 cache size.
High: " " " " " " >> L3 " " .
Median Speedup is (50%ile Before - 50%ile After) / 50%ile Before
Unsurprisingly, the benefits of this optimization decrease with the number
of cpuctxs with a cgroup events, yet, is never detrimental.

Andres reported that MMAP2 records for anonymous memory always have
their protection field 0.
Turns out, someone daft put the prot/flags generation code in the file
branch, leaving them unset for anonymous memory.

Dmitry reported a KASAN use-after-free on event->group_leader.
It turns out there's a hole in perf_remove_from_context() due to
event_function_call() not calling its function when the task
associated with the event is already dead.
In this case the event will have been detached from the task, but the
grouping will have been retained, such that group operations might
still work properly while there are live child events etc.
This does however mean that we can miss a perf_group_detach() call
when the group decomposes, this in turn can then lead to
use-after-free.
Fix it by explicitly doing the group detach if its still required.
