Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
"There are lots of improvements, the biggest changes are:
Main kernel side changes:
- Improve uprobes performance by adding 'pre-filtering' support, by
Oleg Nesterov.
- Make some POWER7 events available in sysfs, equivalent to what was
done on x86, from Sukadev Bhattiprolu.
- tracing updates by Steve Rostedt - mostly misc fixes and smaller
improvements.
- Use perf/event tracing to report PCI Express advanced errors, by
Tony Luck.
- Enable northbridge performance counters on AMD family 15h, by Jacob
Shin.
- This tracing commit:
tracing: Remove the extra 4 bytes of padding in events
changes the ABI. All involved parties (PowerTop in particular)
seem to agree that it's safe to do now with the introduction of
libtraceevent, but the devil is in the details ...
Main tooling side changes:
- Add 'event group view', from Namyung Kim:
To use it, 'perf record' should group events when recording. And
then perf report parses the saved group relation from file header
and prints them together if --group option is provided. You can
use the 'perf evlist' command to see event group information:
$ perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles}' noploop 1
[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.385 MB perf.data (~16807 samples) ]
$ perf evlist --group
{ref-cycles,cycles}
With this example, default perf report will show you each event
separately.
You can use --group option to enable event group view:
$ perf report --group
...
# group: {ref-cycles,cycles}
# ========
# Samples: 7K of event 'anon group { ref-cycles, cycles }'
# Event count (approx.): 6876107743
#
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol

As you can see the Overhead column now contains both of ref-cycles
and cycles and header line shows group information also - 'anon
group { ref-cycles, cycles }'. The output is sorted by period of
group leader first.
- Initial GTK+ annotate browser, from Namhyung Kim.
- Add option for runtime switching perf data file in perf report,
just press 's' and a menu with the valid files found in the current
directory will be presented, from Feng Tang.
- Add support to display whole group data for raw columns, from Jiri
Olsa.
- Add per processor socket count aggregation in perf stat, from
Stephane Eranian.
- Add interval printing in 'perf stat', from Stephane Eranian.
- 'perf test' improvements
- Add support for wildcards in tracepoint system name, from Jiri
Olsa.
- Add anonymous huge page recognition, from Joshua Zhu.
- perf build-id cache now can show DSOs present in a perf.data file
that are not in the cache, to integrate with build-id servers being
put in place by organizations such as Fedora.
- perf top now shares more of the evsel config/creation routines with
'record', paving the way for further integration like 'top'
snapshots, etc.
- perf top now supports DWARF callchains.
- Fix mmap limitations on 32-bit, fix from David Miller.
- 'perf bench numa mem' NUMA performance measurement suite
- ... and lots of fixes, performance improvements, cleanups and other
improvements I failed to list - see the shortlog and git log for
details."

Currently it is not possible to change the filtering constraints after
uprobe_register(), so a consumer can not, say, start to trace a task/mm
which was previously filtered out, or remove the no longer needed bp's.
Introduce uprobe_apply() which simply does register_for_each_vma() again
to consult uprobe_consumer->filter() and install/remove the breakpoints.
The only complication is that register_for_each_vma() can no longer
assume that uprobe->consumers should be consulter if is_register == T,
so we change it to accept "struct uprobe_consumer *new" instead.
Unlike uprobe_register(), uprobe_apply(true) doesn't do "unregister" if
register_for_each_vma() fails, it is up to caller to handle the error.
Note: we probably need to cleanup the current interface, it is strange
that uprobe_apply/unregister need inode/offset. We should either change
uprobe_register() to return "struct uprobe *", or add a private ->uprobe
member in uprobe_consumer. And in the long term uprobe_apply() should
take a single argument, uprobe or consumer, even "bool add" should go
away.

sys_perf_event_open()->perf_init_event(event) is called before
find_get_context(event), this means that event->ctx == NULL when
class->reg(TRACE_REG_PERF_REGISTER/OPEN) is called and thus it
can't know if this event is per-task or system-wide.
This patch adds hw_perf_event->tp_target for PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT,
this is analogous to PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT/bp_target we already have.
The patch also moves ->bp_target up so that it can overlap with the
new member, this can help the compiler to generate the better code.
trace_uprobe_register() will use it for prefiltering to avoid the
unnecessary breakpoints in mm's we do not want to trace.
->tp_target doesn't have its own reference, but we can rely on the
fact that either sys_perf_event_open() holds a reference, or it is
equal to event->ctx->task. So this pointer is always valid until
free_event().
Also add the "struct list_head tp_list" into this union. It is not
strictly necessary, but it can simplify the next changes and we can
add it for free.

The original pull message for uprobes (commit 654443e2) noted:
This tree includes uprobes support in 'perf probe' - but SystemTap
(and other tools) can take advantage of user probe points as well.
In order to actually be usable in module-based tools like SystemTap, the
interface needs to be exported. This patch first adds the obvious
exports for uprobe_register and uprobe_unregister. Then it also adds
one for task_user_regset_view, which is necessary to get the correct
state of userspace registers.

Currrently the are 2 problems with pre-filtering:
1. It is not possible to add/remove a task (mm) after uprobe_register()
2. A forked child inherits all breakpoints and uprobe_consumer can not
control this.
This patch does the first step to improve the filtering. handler_chain()
removes the breakpoints installed by this uprobe from current->mm if all
handlers return UPROBE_HANDLER_REMOVE.
Note that handler_chain() relies on ->register_rwsem to avoid the race
with uprobe_register/unregister which can add/del a consumer, or even
remove and then insert the new uprobe at the same address.
Perhaps we will add uprobe_apply_mm(uprobe, mm, is_register) and teach
copy_mm() to do filter(UPROBE_FILTER_FORK), but I think this change makes
sense anyway.
Note: instead of checking the retcode from uc->handler, we could add
uc->filter(UPROBE_FILTER_BPHIT). But I think this is not optimal to
call 2 hooks in a row. This buys nothing, and if handler/filter do
something nontrivial they will probably do the same work twice.

Finally add uprobe_consumer->filter() and change consumer_filter()
to actually call this method.
Note that ->filter() accepts mm_struct, not task_struct. Because:
1. We do not have for_each_mm_user(mm, task).
2. Even if we implement for_each_mm_user(), ->filter() can
use it itself.
3. It is not clear who will actually need this interface to
do the "nontrivial" filtering.
Another argument is "enum uprobe_filter_ctx", consumer->filter() can
use it to figure out why/where it was called. For example, perhaps
we can add UPROBE_FILTER_PRE_REGISTER used by build_map_info() to
quickly "nack" the unwanted mm's. In this case consumer should know
that it is called under ->i_mmap_mutex.
See the previous discussion at http://marc.info/?t=135214229700002
Perhaps we should pass more arguments, vma/vaddr?
Note: this patch obviously can't help to filter out the child created
by fork(), this will be addressed later.

filter_chain() was added into install_breakpoint/remove_breakpoint to
simplify the initial changes but this is sub-optimal.
This patch shifts the callsite to the callers, register_for_each_vma()
and uprobe_mmap(). This way:
- It will be easier to add the new arguments. This is the main reason,
we can do more optimizations later.
- register_for_each_vma(is_register => true) can be optimized, we only
need to consult the new consumer. The previous consumers were already
asked when they called uprobe_register().
This patch also moves the MMF_HAS_UPROBES check from remove_breakpoint(),
this allows to avoid the potentionally costly filter_chain(). Note that
register_for_each_vma(is_register => false) doesn't really need to take
->consumer_rwsem, but I don't think it makes sense to optimize this and
introduce filter_chain_lockless().

uprobe_register() and uprobe_unregister() are the only users of
mutex_lock(uprobes_hash(inode)), and the only reason why we can't
simply remove it is that we need to ensure that delete_uprobe() is
not possible after alloc_uprobe() and before consumer_add().
IOW, we need to ensure that when we take uprobe->register_rwsem
this uprobe is still valid and we didn't race with _unregister()
which called delete_uprobe() in between.
With this patch uprobe_register() simply checks uprobe_is_active()
and retries if it hits this very unlikely race. uprobes_mutex[] is
no longer needed and can be removed.
There is another reason for this change, prepare_uprobe() should be
folded into alloc_uprobe() and we do not want to hold the extra locks
around read_mapping_page/etc.

The lifetime of uprobe->rb_node and uprobe->inode is not refcounted,
delete_uprobe() is called when we detect that uprobe has no consumers,
and it would be deadly wrong to do this twice.
Change delete_uprobe() to WARN() if it was already called. We use
RB_CLEAR_NODE() to mark uprobe "inactive", then RB_EMPTY_NODE() can
be used to detect this case.
RB_EMPTY_NODE() is not used directly, we add the trivial helper for
the next change.

Introduce uprobe->register_rwsem. It is taken for writing around
__uprobe_register/unregister.
Change handler_chain() to use this sem rather than consumer_rwsem.
The main reason for this change is that we have the nasty problem
with mmap_sem/consumer_rwsem dependency. filter_chain() needs to
protect uprobe->consumers like handler_chain(), but they can not
use the same lock. filter_chain() can be called under ->mmap_sem
(currently this is always true), but we want to allow ->handler()
to play with the probed task's memory, and this needs ->mmap_sem.
Alternatively we could use srcu, but synchronize_srcu() is very
slow and ->register_rwsem allows us to do more. In particular, we
can teach handler_chain() to do remove_breakpoint() if this bp is
"nacked" by all consumers, we know that we can't race with the
new consumer which does uprobe_register().
See also the next patches. uprobes_mutex[] is almost ready to die.

To support the filtering uprobe_register() should do
register_for_each_vma(true) every time the new consumer comes,
we need to install the previously nacked breakpoints.
Note:
- uprobes_mutex[] should die, what it actually protects is
alloc_uprobe().
- UPROBE_RUN_HANDLER should die too, obviously it can't work
unless uprobe has a single consumer. The consumer should
serialize with _register/_unregister itself. Or this flag
should live in uprobe_consumer->state.
- Perhaps we can do some optimizations later. For example, if
filter_chain() never returns false uprobe can record this
fact and avoid the unnecessary register_for_each_vma().

uprobe_unregister() removes the breakpoints only if the last consumer
goes away. To support the filtering it should do this every time, we
want to remove the breakpoints which nobody else want to keep.
Note: given that filter_chain() is not actually implemented, this patch
itself doesn't change the behaviour yet, register_for_each_vma(false)
is a heavy "nop" unless there are no more consumers.

Add the new helper filter_chain(). Currently it is only placeholder,
the comment explains what is should do. We will change it later to
consult every consumer to decide whether we need to install the swbp.
Until then it works as if any consumer returns true, this matches the
current behavior.
Change install_breakpoint() to call filter_chain() instead of checking
uprobe->consumers != NULL. We obviously need this, and this equally
closes the race with _unregister().
Change remove_breakpoint() to call this helper too. Currently this is
pointless because remove_breakpoint() is only called when the last
consumer goes away, but we will change this.

register() also checks uc->next == NULL, probably to prevent the
double-register but the caller can do other stupid/wrong things.
If we do this check, then we should document that uc->next should

When we have group with mixed events (hw/sw) we want to end up
with group leader being in hw context. So if group leader is
initialy sw event, we move all the events under hw context.
The move is done for each event by removing it from its context
and adding it back into proper one. As a part of the removal the
event is automatically disabled, which is not what we want at
this stage of creating groups.
The fix is to initialize event state after removal from sw
context.

Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
"While small this set of changes is very significant with respect to
containers in general and user namespaces in particular. The user
space interface is now complete.
This set of changes adds support for unprivileged users to create user
namespaces and as a user namespace root to create other namespaces.
The tyranny of supporting suid root preventing unprivileged users from
using cool new kernel features is broken.
This set of changes completes the work on setns, adding support for
the pid, user, mount namespaces.
This set of changes includes a bunch of basic pid namespace
cleanups/simplifications. Of particular significance is the rework of
the pid namespace cleanup so it no longer requires sending out
tendrils into all kinds of unexpected cleanup paths for operation. At
least one case of broken error handling is fixed by this cleanup.
The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been converted from regular files
to magic symlinks which prevents incorrect caching by the VFS,
ensuring the files always refer to the namespace the process is
currently using and ensuring that the ptrace_mayaccess permission
checks are always applied.
The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been given stable inode numbers
so it is now possible to see if different processes share the same
namespaces.
Through the David Miller's net tree are changes to relax many of the
permission checks in the networking stack to allowing the user
namespace root to usefully use the networking stack. Similar changes
for the mount namespace and the pid namespace are coming through my
tree.
Two small changes to add user namespace support were commited here adn
in David Miller's -net tree so that I could complete the work on the
/proc/<pid>/ns/ files in this tree.
Work remains to make it safe to build user namespaces and 9p, afs,
ceph, cifs, coda, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, nfsd, ocfs2, and xfs so the
Kconfig guard remains in place preventing that user namespaces from
being built when any of those filesystems are enabled.
Future design work remains to allow root users outside of the initial
user namespace to mount more than just /proc and /sys."

- cgroup_rmdir() had peculiar semantics - it allowed cgroup
destruction to be vetoed by individual controllers and tried to
drain refcnt synchronously. The vetoing never worked properly and
caused good deal of contortions in cgroup. memcg was the last
reamining user. Michal Hocko removed the usage and cgroup_rmdir()
path has been simplified significantly. This was done in a
separate branch so that the memcg people can base further memcg
changes on top.
- The above allowed cleaning up cgroup lifecycle management and
implementation of generic cgroup iterators which are used to
improve hierarchy support.
- cgroup_freezer updated to allow migration in and out of a frozen
cgroup and handle hierarchy. If a cgroup is frozen, all descendant
cgroups are frozen.
- netcls_cgroup and netprio_cgroup updated to handle hierarchy
properly.
- Various fixes and cleanups.
- Two merge commits. One to pull in memcg and rmdir cleanups (needed
to build iterators). The other pulled in cgroup/for-3.7-fixes for
device_cgroup fixes so that further device_cgroup patches can be
stacked on top."

The expressions tsk->nsproxy->pid_ns and task_active_pid_ns
aka ns_of_pid(task_pid(tsk)) should have the same number of
cache line misses with the practical difference that
ns_of_pid(task_pid(tsk)) is released later in a processes life.
Furthermore by using task_active_pid_ns it becomes trivial
to write an unshare implementation for the the pid namespace.
So I have used task_active_pid_ns everywhere I can.
In fork since the pid has not yet been attached to the
process I use ns_of_pid, to achieve the same effect.

This was always racy, but 268720903f
"uprobes: Rework register_for_each_vma() to make it O(n)" should be
blamed anyway, it made everything worse and I didn't notice.
register/unregister call build_map_info() and then do install/remove
breakpoint for every mm which mmaps inode/offset. This can obviously
race with fork()->dup_mmap() in between and we can miss the child.
uprobe_register() could be easily fixed but unregister is much worse,
the new mm inherits "int3" from parent and there is no way to detect
this if uprobe goes away.
So this patch simply adds percpu_down_read/up_read around dup_mmap(),
and percpu_down_write/up_write into register_for_each_vma().
This adds 2 new hooks into dup_mmap() but we can kill uprobe_dup_mmap()
and fold it into uprobe_end_dup_mmap().

No functional changes.
powerpc is the only user of arch_uprobe_enable/disable_step() helpers,
but they should die. They can not be used correctly, every arch needs
its own implementation (like x86 does). And they do not really help
even as initial-and-almost-working code, arch_uprobe_*_xol() hooks can
easily use user_enable/disable_single_step() directly.
Change arch_uprobe_*_step() to do nothing, and convert powerpc to use
ptrace helpers. This is equally wrong, powerpc needs the arch-specific
fixes.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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().

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.
