0d855354ea perf, powerpc: Fix hw breakpoints returning -ENOSPC
I've been trying to get hardware breakpoints with perf to work
on POWER7 but I'm getting the following:

  % perf record -e mem:0x10000000 true

    Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 28 (No space left on device).  /bin/dmesg may provide additional information.

    Fatal: No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?

  true: Terminated

(FWIW adding -a and it works fine)

Debugging it seems that __reserve_bp_slot() is returning ENOSPC
because it thinks there are no free breakpoint slots on this
CPU.

I have a 2 CPUs, so perf userspace is doing two perf_event_open
syscalls to add a counter to each CPU [1].  The first syscall
succeeds but the second is failing.

On this second syscall, fetch_bp_busy_slots() sets slots.pinned
to be 1, despite there being no breakpoint on this CPU.  This is
because the call the task_bp_pinned, checks all CPUs, rather
than just the current CPU. POWER7 only has one hardware
breakpoint per CPU (ie. HBP_NUM=1), so we return ENOSPC.

The following patch fixes this by checking the associated CPU
for each breakpoint in task_bp_pinned.  I'm not familiar with
this code, so it's provided as a reference to the above issue.

6bdb913f0a mm: wrap calls to set_pte_at_notify with invalidate_range_start and invalidate_range_end
In order to allow sleeping during invalidate_page mmu notifier calls, we
need to avoid calling when holding the PT lock.  In addition to its direct
calls, invalidate_page can also be called as a substitute for a change_pte
call, in case the notifier client hasn't implemented change_pte.

This patch drops the invalidate_page call from change_pte, and instead
wraps all calls to change_pte with invalidate_range_start and
invalidate_range_end calls.

Note that change_pte still cannot sleep after this patch, and that clients
implementing change_pte should not take action on it in case the number of
outstanding invalidate_range_start calls is larger than one, otherwise
they might miss a later invalidation.

6b2dbba8b6 mm: replace vma prio_tree with an interval tree
Implement an interval tree as a replacement for the VMA prio_tree.  The
algorithms are similar to lib/interval_tree.c; however that code can't be
directly reused as the interval endpoints are not explicitly stored in the
VMA.  So instead, the common algorithm is moved into a template and the
details (node type, how to get interval endpoints from the node, etc) are
filled in using the C preprocessor.

Once the interval tree functions are available, using them as a
replacement to the VMA prio tree is a relatively simple, mechanical job.

314e51b985 mm: kill vma flag VM_RESERVED and mm->reserved_vm counter
A long time ago, in v2.4, VM_RESERVED kept swapout process off VMA,
currently it lost original meaning but still has some effects:

 | effect                 | alternative flags
-+------------------------+---------------------------------------------
1| account as reserved_vm | VM_IO
2| skip in core dump      | VM_IO, VM_DONTDUMP
3| do not merge or expand | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP
4| do not mlock           | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP

This patch removes reserved_vm counter from mm_struct.  Seems like nobody
cares about it, it does not exported into userspace directly, it only
reduces total_vm showed in proc.

Thus VM_RESERVED can be replaced with VM_IO or pair VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

remap_pfn_range() and io_remap_pfn_range() set VM_IO|VM_DONTEXPAND|VM_DONTDUMP.
remap_vmalloc_range() set VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

71434f2fcb uprobes: Fix the racy uprobe->flags manipulation
Multiple threads can manipulate uprobe->flags, this is obviously
unsafe. For example mmap can set UPROBE_COPY_INSN while register
tries to set UPROBE_RUN_HANDLER, the latter can also race with
can_skip_sstep() which clears UPROBE_SKIP_SSTEP.

Change this code to use bitops.

4710f05fd1 uprobes: Fix prepare_uprobe() race with itself
install_breakpoint() is called under mm->mmap_sem, this protects
set_swbp() but not prepare_uprobe(). Two or more different tasks
can call install_breakpoint()->prepare_uprobe() at the same time,
this leads to numerous problems if UPROBE_COPY_INSN is not set.

Just for example, the second copy_insn() can corrupt the already
analyzed/fixuped uprobe->arch.insn and race with handle_swbp().

This patch simply adds uprobe->copy_mutex to serialize this code.
We could probably reuse ->consumer_rwsem, but this would mean that
consumer->handler() can not use mm->mmap_sem, not good.

Note: this is another temporary ugly hack until we move this logic
into uprobe_register().

142b18ddc8 uprobes: Fix handle_swbp() vs unregister() + register() race
Strictly speaking this race was added by me in 56bb4cf6. However
I think that this bug is just another indication that we should
move copy_insn/uprobe_analyze_insn code from install_breakpoint()
to uprobe_register(), there are a lot of other reasons for that.
Until then, add a hack to close the race.

A task can hit uprobe U1, but before it calls find_uprobe() this
uprobe can be unregistered *AND* another uprobe U2 can be added to
uprobes_tree at the same inode/offset. In this case handle_swbp()
will use the not-fully-initialized U2, in particular its arch.insn
for xol.

Add the additional !UPROBE_COPY_INSN check into handle_swbp(),
if this flag is not set we simply restart as if the new uprobe was
not inserted yet. This is not very nice, we need barriers, but we
will remove this hack when we change uprobe_register().

Note: with or without this patch install_breakpoint() can race with
itself, yet another reson to kill UPROBE_COPY_INSN altogether. And
even the usage of uprobe->flags is not safe. See the next patches.

076a365b3d uprobes: Do not delete uprobe if uprobe_unregister() fails
delete_uprobe() must not be called if register_for_each_vma(false)
fails to remove all breakpoints, __uprobe_unregister() is correct.
The problem is that register_for_each_vma(false) always returns 0
and thus this logic does not work.

1. Change verify_opcode() to return 0 rather than -EINVAL when
   unregister detects the !is_swbp insn, we can treat this case
   as success and currently unregister paths ignore the error
   code anyway.

2. Change remove_breakpoint() to propagate the error code from
   write_opcode().

3. Change register_for_each_vma(is_register => false) to remove
   as much breakpoints as possible but return non-zero if
   remove_breakpoint() fails at least once.

Jiri reported that he could trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in
perf_cgroup_switch() using sw-events. This is because sw-events share

cpuctx instances.

3f1f33206c perf: Clarify perf_cpu_context::active_pmu usage by renaming it to ::unique_pmu
Stephane thought the perf_cpu_context::active_pmu name confusing and
suggested using 'unique_pmu' instead.

This pointer is a pointer to a 'random' pmu sharing the cpuctx
instance, therefore limiting a for_each_pmu loop to those where
cpuctx->unique_pmu matches the pmu we get a loop over unique cpuctx
instances.

Pull vfs update from Al Viro:

 - big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
   that is moved to fs/file.c

   (BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c.  As it is,
   we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
   file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
   are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
   struct file we used to have way back).

   A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
   disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
   doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore.  A bunch of
   relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
   leak.

 - related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
   there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).

 - also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
   that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
   switch of fdinfo to seq_file.

 - Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
   take that commit than mess with conflicts.  The rest is a separate
   pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.

 - a few misc patches all over the place.  Not all for this cycle,
   there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."

Fix up trivial conflicts in the android binder driver, and some fairly
simple conflicts due to two different changes to the sock_alloc_file()
interface ("take descriptor handling from sock_alloc_file() to callers"
vs "net: Providing protocol type via system.sockprotoname xattr of
/proc/PID/fd entries" adding a dentry name to the socket)

 "Lots of changes in this cycle as well, with hundreds of commits from
  over 30 contributors.  Most of the activity was on the tooling side.

  Higher level changes:

   - New 'perf kvm' analysis tool, from Xiao Guangrong.

   - uprobes fixes + cleanups from Oleg Nesterov.

   - Lots of patches to make perf build on Android out of box, from

     well as reading regs as if a breakpoint were to trigger at function
     entry.

     The main goal of this patch series was to allow kprobes to use
     ftrace as an optimized probe point when a probe is placed on an
     ftrace nop.  With lots of help from Masami Hiramatsu, and going
     through lots of iterations, we finally came up with a good
     solution.

   - Add --symbols to 'script', similar to the one in 'report', from
     Feng Tang.

  Infrastructure enhancements and fixes:

   - Convert the trace builtins to use the growing evsel/evlist
     tracepoint infrastructure, removing several open coded constructs
     like switch like series of strcmp to dispatch events, etc.
     Basically what had already been showcased in 'perf sched'.

   - Add evsel constructor for tracepoints, that uses libtraceevent just
     to parse the /format events file, use it in a new 'perf test' to
     make sure the libtraceevent format parsing regressions can be more
     readily caught.

   - Some strange errors were happening in some builds, but not on the
     next, reported by several people, problem was some parser related
     files, generated during the build, didn't had proper make deps, fix
     from Eric Sandeen.

   - Introduce struct and cache information about the environment where
     a perf.data file was captured, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Fix handling of unresolved samples when --symbols is used in
     'report', from Feng Tang.

   - Add union member access support to 'probe', from Hyeoncheol Lee.

   - Fixups to die() removal, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Render fixes for the TUI, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Don't enable annotation in non symbolic view, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Fix pipe mode in 'report', from Namhyung Kim.

ed6f6a50dc uprobes: Kill set_orig_insn()->is_swbp_at_addr()
Unlike set_swbp(), set_orig_insn()->is_swbp_at_addr() makes sense,
although it can't prevent all confusions.

But the usage of is_swbp_at_addr() is equally confusing, and it adds
the extra get_user_pages() we can avoid.

This patch removes set_orig_insn()->is_swbp_at_addr() but changes
write_opcode() to do the necessary checks before replace_page().

Perhaps it also makes sense to ensure PAGE_MAPPING_ANON in unregister
case.

find_active_uprobe() becomes the only user of is_swbp_at_addr(),
we can change its semantics.

e97f65a17d uprobes: Kill set_swbp()->is_swbp_at_addr()
A separate patch for better documentation.

set_swbp()->is_swbp_at_addr() is not needed for correctness, it is
harmless to do the unnecessary __replace_page(old_page, new_page)
when these 2 pages are identical.

And it can not be counted as optimization. mmap/register races are
very unlikely, while in the likely case is_swbp_at_addr() adds the
extra get_user_pages() even if the caller is uprobe_mmap(current->mm)
and returns false.

Note also that the semantics/usage of is_swbp_at_addr() in uprobe.c
is confusing. set_swbp() uses it to detect the case when this insn
was already modified by uprobes, that is why it should always compare
the opcode with UPROBE_SWBP_INSN even if the hardware (like powerpc)
has other trap insns. It doesn't matter if this breakpoint was in fact
installed by gdb or application itself, we are going to "steal" this
breakpoint anyway and execute the original insn from vm_file even if
it no longer matches the memory.

OTOH, handle_swbp()->find_active_uprobe() uses is_swbp_at_addr() to
figure out whether we need to send SIGTRAP or not if we can not find
uprobe, so in this case it should return true for all trap variants,
not only for UPROBE_SWBP_INSN.

This patch removes set_swbp()->is_swbp_at_addr(), the next patches
will remove it from set_orig_insn() which is similar to set_swbp()
in this respect. So the only caller will be handle_swbp() and we
can make its semantics clear.

We should never try to write into MAP_SHARED mapping, this can

With this patch valid_vma(false) ignores VM_WRITE only but checks

speedup uprobe_munmap() and uprobe_unregister().

Note: even after this patch _unregister can confuse the probed

It is only used in uprobe_notify_resume() to decide who should be

allows us to simplify handle_swbp(), no need to clear utask->state.

Likewise we could kill UTASK_SSTEP, but UTASK_BP_HIT is worse and
imho should die. The problem is, it creates the special case when
task->utask is NULL, we can't distinguish RUNNING and BP_HIT. With

8c7f6edbda cgroup: mark subsystems with broken hierarchy support and whine if cgroups are nested for them
Currently, cgroup hierarchy support is a mess.  cpu related subsystems
behave correctly - configuration, accounting and control on a parent
properly cover its children.  blkio and freezer completely ignore
hierarchy and treat all cgroups as if they're directly under the root
cgroup.  Others show yet different behaviors.

These differing interpretations of cgroup hierarchy make using cgroup
confusing and it impossible to co-mount controllers into the same
hierarchy and obtain sane behavior.

Eventually, we want full hierarchy support from all subsystems and
probably a unified hierarchy.  Users using separate hierarchies
expecting completely different behaviors depending on the mounted
subsystem is deterimental to making any progress on this front.

This patch adds cgroup_subsys.broken_hierarchy and sets it to %true
for controllers which are lacking in hierarchy support.  The goal of
this patch is two-fold.

* Move users away from using hierarchy on currently non-hierarchical
  subsystems, so that implementing proper hierarchy support on those
  doesn't surprise them.

* Keep track of which controllers are broken how and nudge the
  subsystems to implement proper hierarchy support.

For now, start with a single warning message.  We can whine louder
later on.

v2: Fixed a typo spotted by Michal. Warning message updated.

v3: Updated memcg part so that it doesn't generate warning in the
    cases where .use_hierarchy=false doesn't make the behavior
    different from root.use_hierarchy=true.  Fixed a typo spotted by
    Glauber.

v4: Check ->broken_hierarchy after cgroup creation is complete so that
    ->create() can affect the result per Michal.  Dropped unnecessary
    memcg root handling per Michal.

need oldmm->mmap_sem to avoid the race with uprobe_register() or

Currently we never clear this bit, it can be false-positive after

Once install_breakpoint() fails uprobe_mmap() "ignores" all other
uprobes and returns the error.

It was never really needed to to stop after the first error, and
in fact it was always wrong at least in -ENOTSUPP case.

Change uprobe_mmap() to ignore the errors and always return 0.
This is not what we want in the long term, but until we teach
the callers to handle the failure it would be better to remove
the pointless complications. And this doesn't look too bad, the
only "reasonable" error is ENOMEM but in this case the caller
should be oom-killed in the likely case or the system has more
serious problems.

However it makes sense to stop if fatal_signal_pending() == T.
In particular this helps if the task was oom-killed.

647c42dfd4 uprobes: Kill uprobes_state->count
uprobes_state->count is only needed to avoid the slow path in
uprobe_pre_sstep_notifier(). It is also checked in uprobe_munmap()
but ironically its only goal to decrement this counter. However,
it is very broken. Just some examples:

- uprobe_mmap() can race with uprobe_unregister() and wrongly
  increment the counter if it hits the non-uprobe "int3". Note
  that install_breakpoint() checks ->consumers first and returns
  -EEXIST if it is NULL.

  "atomic_sub() if error" in uprobe_mmap() looks obviously wrong
  too.

- uprobe_munmap() can race with uprobe_register() and wrongly
  decrement the counter by the same reason.

- Suppose an appication tries to increase the mmapped area via
  sys_mremap(). vma_adjust() does uprobe_munmap(whole_vma) first,
  this can nullify the counter temporarily and race with another
  thread which can hit the bp, the application will be killed by
  SIGTRAP.

- Suppose an application mmaps 2 consecutive areas in the same file
  and one (or both) of these areas has uprobes. In the likely case
  mmap_region()->vma_merge() suceeds. Like above, this leads to
  uprobe_munmap/uprobe_mmap from vma_merge()->vma_adjust() but then
  mmap_region() does another uprobe_mmap(resulting_vma) and doubles
  the counter.

This patch only removes this counter and fixes the compile errors,
then we will try to cleanup the changed code and add something else
instead.

8bd874456e uprobes: Remove check for uprobe variable in handle_swbp()
by the time we get here (after we pass cleanup_ret) uprobe is always is
set. If it is NULL we leave very early in the code.

61e1d39498 uprobes: Remove redundant lock_page/unlock_page
Since read_opcode() reads from the referenced page and doesnt modify
the page contents nor the page attributes, there is no need to lock
the page.

d077526485 perf: Add attribute to filter out callchains
Introducing following bits to the the perf_event_attr struct:

  - exclude_callchain_kernel to filter out kernel callchain
    from the sample dump

  - exclude_callchain_user to filter out user callchain
    from the sample dump

We need to be able to disable standard user callchain dump when we use
the dwarf cfi callchain mode, because frame pointer based user
callchains are useless in this mode.

Implementing also exclude_callchain_kernel to have complete set of
options.

c5ebcedb56 perf: Add ability to attach user stack dump to sample
Introducing PERF_SAMPLE_STACK_USER sample type bit to trigger the dump
of the user level stack on sample. The size of the dump is specified by
sample_stack_user value.

Being able to dump parts of the user stack, starting from the stack
pointer, will be useful to make a post mortem dwarf CFI based stack
unwinding.

Added HAVE_PERF_USER_STACK_DUMP config option to determine if the
architecture provides user stack dump on perf event samples.  This needs
access to the user stack pointer which is not unified across
architectures. Enabling this for x86 architecture.
