"Kernel side changes mostly consist of work on x86 PMU drivers:
- x86 Intel PT (hardware CPU tracer) improvements (Alexander
Shishkin)
- x86 Intel CQM (cache quality monitoring) improvements (Thomas
Gleixner)
- x86 Intel PEBSv3 support (Peter Zijlstra)
- x86 Intel PEBS interrupt batching support for lower overhead
sampling (Zheng Yan, Kan Liang)
- x86 PMU scheduler fixes and improvements (Peter Zijlstra)
There's too many tooling improvements to list them all - here are a
few select highlights:
'perf bench':
- Introduce new 'perf bench futex' benchmark: 'wake-parallel', to
measure parallel waker threads generating contention for kernel
locks (hb->lock). (Davidlohr Bueso)
'perf top', 'perf report':
- Allow disabling/enabling events dynamicaly in 'perf top':
a 'perf top' session can instantly become a 'perf report'
one, i.e. going from dynamic analysis to a static one,
returning to a dynamic one is possible, to toogle the
modes, just press 'f' to 'freeze/unfreeze' the sampling. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Make Ctrl-C stop processing on TUI, allowing interrupting the load of big
perf.data files (Namhyung Kim)
'perf probe': (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Support glob wildcards for function name
- Support $params special probe argument: Collect all function arguments
- Make --line checks validate C-style function name.
- Add --no-inlines option to avoid searching inline functions
- Greatly speed up 'perf probe --list' by caching debuginfo.
- Improve --filter support for 'perf probe', allowing using its arguments
on other commands, as --add, --del, etc.
'perf sched':
- Add option in 'perf sched' to merge like comms to lat output (Josef Bacik)
Plus tons of infrastructure work - in particular preparation for
upcoming threaded perf report support, but also lots of other work -
and fixes and other improvements. See (much) more details in the
shortlog and in the git log"

While looking for other users of get_state/cond_sync. I Found
ring_buffer_attach() and it looks obviously buggy?
Don't we need to ensure that we have "synchronize" _between_
list_del() and list_add() ?
IOW. Suppose that ring_buffer_attach() preempts right_after
get_state_synchronize_rcu() and gp completes before spin_lock().
In this case cond_synchronize_rcu() does nothing and we reuse
->rb_entry without waiting for gp in between?
It also moves the ->rcu_pending check under "if (rb)", to make it
more readable imo.

After enlarging the PEBS interrupt threshold, there may be some mixed up
PEBS samples which are discarded by the kernel.
This patch makes the kernel emit a PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES record with
the number of possible discarded records when it is impossible to demux
the samples.
It makes sure the user is not left in the dark about such discards.

When the PEBS interrupt threshold is larger than one record and the
machine supports multiple PEBS events, the records of these events are
mixed up and we need to demultiplex them.
Demuxing the records is hard because the hardware is deficient. The
hardware has two issues that, when combined, create impossible
scenarios to demux.
The first issue is that the 'status' field of the PEBS record is a copy
of the GLOBAL_STATUS MSR at PEBS assist time. To see why this is a
problem let us first describe the regular PEBS cycle:
A) the CTRn value reaches 0:
- the corresponding bit in GLOBAL_STATUS gets set
- we start arming the hardware assist
< some unspecified amount of time later -- this could cover multiple
events of interest >
B) the hardware assist is armed, any next event will trigger it
C) a matching event happens:
- the hardware assist triggers and generates a PEBS record
this includes a copy of GLOBAL_STATUS at this moment
- if we auto-reload we (re)set CTRn
- we clear the relevant bit in GLOBAL_STATUS
Now consider the following chain of events:
A0, B0, A1, C0
The event generated for counter 0 will include a status with counter 1
set, even though its not at all related to the record. A similar thing
can happen with a !PEBS event if it just happens to overflow at the
right moment.
The second issue is that the hardware will only emit one record for two
or more counters if the event that triggers the assist is 'close'. The
'close' can be several cycles. In some cases even the complete assist,
if the event is something that doesn't need retirement.
For instance, consider this chain of events:
A0, B0, A1, B1, C01
Where C01 is an event that triggers both hardware assists, we will
generate but a single record, but again with both counters listed in the
status field.
This time the record pertains to both events.
Note that these two cases are different but undistinguishable with the
data as generated. Therefore demuxing records with multiple PEBS bits
(we can safely ignore status bits for !PEBS counters) is impossible.
Furthermore we cannot emit the record to both events because that might
cause a data leak -- the events might not have the same privileges -- so
what this patch does is discard such events.
The assumption/hope is that such discards will be rare.
Here lists some possible ways you may get high discard rate.
- when you count the same thing multiple times. But it is not a useful
configuration.
- you can be unfortunate if you measure with a userspace only PEBS
event along with either a kernel or unrestricted PEBS event. Imagine
the event triggering and setting the overflow flag right before
entering the kernel. Then all kernel side events will end up with
multiple bits set.

The current formulation of control dependencies fails on DEC Alpha,
which does not respect dependencies of any kind unless an explicit
memory barrier is provided. This means that the current fomulation of
control dependencies fails on Alpha. This commit therefore creates a
READ_ONCE_CTRL() that has the same overhead on non-Alpha systems, but
causes Alpha to produce the needed ordering. This commit also applies
READ_ONCE_CTRL() to the one known use of control dependencies.
Use of READ_ONCE_CTRL() also has the beneficial effect of adding a bit
of self-documentation to control dependencies.

PMUs that don't support hardware scatter tables require big contiguous
chunks of memory and a PMI to switch between them. However, in overwrite
using a PMI for this purpose adds extra overhead that the users would
like to avoid. Thus, in overwrite mode for such PMUs we can only allow
one contiguous chunk for the entire requested buffer.
This patch changes the behavior accordingly, so that if the buddy allocator
fails to come up with a single high-order chunk for the entire requested
buffer, the allocation will fail.

perf_trace_destroy()
perf_trace_event_unreg()

while __free_event does:

perf_event_free_bpf_prog()
To fix the race simply move perf_event_free_bpf_prog() before
event->destroy(), since event->tp_event is still valid at that point.
Note, perf_trace_destroy() is not racing with trace_remove_event_call()
since they both grab event_mutex.

For counters that generate AUX data that is bound to the context of a
running task, such as instruction tracing, the decoder needs to know
exactly which task is running when the event is first scheduled in,
before the first sched_switch. The decoder's need to know this stems
from the fact that instruction flow trace decoding will almost always
require program's object code in order to reconstruct said flow and
for that we need at least its pid/tid in the perf stream.
To single out such instruction tracing pmus, this patch introduces
ITRACE PMU capability. The reason this is not part of RECORD_AUX
record is that not all pmus capable of generating AUX data need this,
and the opposite is *probably* also true.
While sched_switch covers for most cases, there are two problems with it:
the consumer will need to process events out of order (that is, having
found RECORD_AUX, it will have to skip forward to the nearest sched_switch
to figure out which task it was, then go back to the actual trace to
decode it) and it completely misses the case when the tracing is enabled
and disabled before sched_switch, for example, via PERF_EVENT_IOC_DISABLE.

When AUX area gets a certain amount of new data, we want to wake up
userspace to collect it. This adds a new control to specify how much
data will cause a wakeup. This is then passed down to pmu drivers via
output handle's "wakeup" field, so that the driver can find the nearest
point where it can generate an interrupt.
We repurpose __reserved_2 in the event attribute for this, even though
it was never checked to be zero before, aux_watermark will only matter
for new AUX-aware code, so the old code should still be fine.

This adds support for overwrite mode in the AUX area, which means "keep
collecting data till you're stopped", turning AUX area into a circular
buffer, where new data overwrites old data. It does not depend on data
buffer's overwrite mode, so that it doesn't lose sideband data that is
instrumental for processing AUX data.
Overwrite mode is enabled at mapping AUX area read only. Even though
aux_tail in the buffer's user page might be user writable, it will be
ignored in this mode.
A PERF_RECORD_AUX with PERF_AUX_FLAG_OVERWRITE set is written to the perf
data stream every time an event writes new data to the AUX area. The pmu
driver might not be able to infer the exact beginning of the new data in
each snapshot, some drivers will only provide the tail, which is
aux_offset + aux_size in the AUX record. Consumer has to be able to tell
the new data from the old one, for example, by means of time stamps if
such are provided in the trace.
Consumer is also responsible for disabling any events that might write
to the AUX area (thus potentially racing with the consumer) before
collecting the data.

For pmus that wish to write data to ring buffer's AUX area, provide
perf_aux_output_{begin,end}() calls to initiate/commit data writes,
similarly to perf_output_{begin,end}. These also use the same output
handle structure. Also, similarly to software counterparts, these
will direct inherited events' output to parents' ring buffers.
After the perf_aux_output_begin() returns successfully, handle->size
is set to the maximum amount of data that can be written wrt aux_tail
pointer, so that no data that the user hasn't seen will be overwritten,
therefore this should always be called before hardware writing is
enabled. On success, this will return the pointer to pmu driver's
private structure allocated for this aux area by pmu::setup_aux. Same
pointer can also be retrieved using perf_get_aux() while hardware
writing is enabled.
PMU driver should pass the actual amount of data written as a parameter
to perf_aux_output_end(). All hardware writes should be completed and
visible before this one is called.
Additionally, perf_aux_output_skip() will adjust output handle and
aux_head in case some part of the buffer has to be skipped over to
maintain hardware's alignment constraints.
Nested writers are forbidden and guards are in place to catch such
attempts.

Usually, pmus that do, for example, instruction tracing, would only ever
be able to have one event per task per cpu (or per perf_event_context). For
such pmus it makes sense to disallow creating conflicting events early on,
so as to provide consistent behavior for the user.
This patch adds a pmu capability that indicates such constraint on event
creation.

For pmus that don't support scatter-gather for AUX data in hardware, it
might still make sense to implement software double buffering to avoid
losing data while the user is reading data out. For this purpose, add
a pmu capability that guarantees multiple high-order chunks for AUX buffer,
so that the pmu driver can do switchover tricks.
To make use of this feature, add PERF_PMU_CAP_AUX_SW_DOUBLEBUF to your
pmu's capability mask. This will make the ring buffer AUX allocation code
ensure that the biggest high order allocation for the aux buffer pages is
no bigger than half of the total requested buffer size, thus making sure
that the buffer has at least two high order allocations.

This patch introduces "AUX space" in the perf mmap buffer, intended for
exporting high bandwidth data streams to userspace, such as instruction
flow traces.
AUX space is a ring buffer, defined by aux_{offset,size} fields in the
user_page structure, and read/write pointers aux_{head,tail}, which abide
by the same rules as data_* counterparts of the main perf buffer.
In order to allocate/mmap AUX, userspace needs to set up aux_offset to
such an offset that will be greater than data_offset+data_size and
aux_size to be the desired buffer size. Both need to be page aligned.
Then, same aux_offset and aux_size should be passed to mmap() call and
if everything adds up, you should have an AUX buffer as a result.
Pages that are mapped into this buffer also come out of user's mlock
rlimit plus perf_event_mlock_kb allowance.

Currently, the actual perf ring buffer is one page into the mmap area,
following the user page and the userspace follows this convention. This
patch adds data_{offset,size} fields to user_page that can be used by
userspace instead for locating perf data in the mmap area. This is also
helpful when mapping existing or shared buffers if their size is not
known in advance.
Right now, it is made to follow the existing convention that
data_offset == PAGE_SIZE and
data_offset + data_size == mmap_size.

BPF programs, attached to kprobes, provide a safe way to execute
user-defined BPF byte-code programs without being able to crash or
hang the kernel in any way. The BPF engine makes sure that such
programs have a finite execution time and that they cannot break
out of their sandbox.
The user interface is to attach to a kprobe via the perf syscall:
struct perf_event_attr attr = {
.type = PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT,
.config = event_id,
...
};
event_fd = perf_event_open(&attr,...);
ioctl(event_fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF, prog_fd);
'prog_fd' is a file descriptor associated with BPF program
previously loaded.
'event_id' is an ID of the kprobe created.
Closing 'event_fd':
close(event_fd);
... automatically detaches BPF program from it.
BPF programs can call in-kernel helper functions to:
- lookup/update/delete elements in maps
- probe_read - wraper of probe_kernel_read() used to access any
kernel data structures
BPF programs receive 'struct pt_regs *' as an input ('struct pt_regs' is
architecture dependent) and return 0 to ignore the event and 1 to store
kprobe event into the ring buffer.
Note, kprobes are a fundamentally _not_ a stable kernel ABI,
so BPF programs attached to kprobes must be recompiled for
every kernel version and user must supply correct LINUX_VERSION_CODE
in attr.kern_version during bpf_prog_load() call.

While thinking on the whole clock discussion it occurred to me we have
two distinct uses of time:
1) the tracking of event/ctx/cgroup enabled/running/stopped times
which includes the self-monitoring support in struct
perf_event_mmap_page.
2) the actual timestamps visible in the data records.
And we've been conflating them.
The first is all about tracking time deltas, nobody should really care
in what time base that happens, its all relative information, as long
as its internally consistent it works.
The second however is what people are worried about when having to
merge their data with external sources. And here we have the
discussion on MONOTONIC vs MONOTONIC_RAW etc..
Where MONOTONIC is good for correlating between machines (static
offset), MONOTNIC_RAW is required for correlating against a fixed rate
hardware clock.
This means configurability; now 1) makes that hard because it needs to
be internally consistent across groups of unrelated events; which is
why we had to have a global perf_clock().
However, for 2) it doesn't really matter, perf itself doesn't care
what it writes into the buffer.
The below patch makes the distinction between these two cases by
adding perf_event_clock() which is used for the second case. It
further makes this configurable on a per-event basis, but adds a few
sanity checks such that we cannot combine events with different clocks
in confusing ways.
And since we then have per-event configurability we might as well
retain the 'legacy' behaviour as a default.

Which is caused by an irq_work generating new irq_work and therefore
not allowing forward progress.
This happens because processing the perf irq_work triggers another
perf event (tracepoint stuff) which in turn generates an irq_work ad
infinitum.
Avoid this by raising the recursion counter in the irq_work -- which
effectively disables all software events (including tracepoints) from
actually triggering again.

mutex_unlock() with a correct counterpart, perf_event_ctx_unlock().
Contexts are thus leaked as a result of incremented refcount

Add support for task events as well as system-wide events. This change
has a big impact on the way that we gather LLC occupancy values in
intel_cqm_event_read().
Currently, for system-wide (per-cpu) events we defer processing to
userspace which knows how to discard all but one cpu result per package.
Things aren't so simple for task events because we need to do the value
aggregation ourselves. To do this, we defer updating the LLC occupancy
value in event->count from intel_cqm_event_read() and do an SMP
cross-call to read values for all packages in intel_cqm_event_count().
We need to ensure that we only do this for one task event per cache
group, otherwise we'll report duplicate values.
If we're a system-wide event we want to fallback to the default
perf_event_count() implementation. Refactor this into a common function
so that we don't duplicate the code.
Also, introduce PERF_TYPE_INTEL_CQM, since we need a way to track an
event's task (if the event isn't per-cpu) inside of the Intel CQM PMU
driver. This task information is only availble in the upper layers of
the perf infrastructure.
Other perf backends stash the target task in event->hw.*target so we
need to do something similar. The task is used to determine whether
events should share a cache group and an RMID.

For PMU drivers that record per-package counters, the ->count variable
cannot be used to record an accurate aggregated value, since it's not
possible to perform SMP cross-calls to cpus on other packages from the
context in which we update ->count.
Introduce a new optional ->count() accessor function that can be used to
customize how values are collected. If a PMU driver doesn't provide a
->count() function, we fallback to the existing code.
There is necessarily a window of staleness with this approach because
the task that generated the counter value may not have been scheduled by
the cpu recently.
An alternative and more complex approach would be to use a hrtimer to
periodically refresh the values from a more permissive scheduling
context. So, we're trading off complexity for accuracy.

Use event->attr.branch_sample_type to replace
intel_pmu_needs_lbr_smpl() for avoiding duplicated code that
implicitly enables the LBR.
Currently, branch stack can be enabled by user explicitly requesting
branch sampling or implicit branch sampling to correct PEBS skid.
For user explicitly requested branch sampling, the branch_sample_type
is explicitly set by user. For PEBS case, the branch_sample_type is also
implicitly set to PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_ANY in x86_pmu_hw_config.

If two tasks were both forked from the same parent task, Events in
their perf task contexts can be the same. Perf core may leave out
switching the perf event contexts.
Previous patch inroduces pmu specific data. The data is for saving
the LBR stack, it is task specific. So we need to switch the data
even when context switch is optimized out.

Introduce a new flag PERF_ATTACH_TASK_DATA for perf event's attach
stata. The flag is set by PMU's event_init() callback, it indicates
that perf event needs PMU specific data.
The PMU specific data are initialized to zeros. Later patches will
use PMU specific data to save LBR stack.

Previous commit introduces context switch callback, its function
overlaps with the flush branch stack callback. So we can use the
context switch callback to flush LBR stack.
This patch adds code that uses the flush branch callback to
flush the LBR stack when task is being scheduled in. The callback
is enabled only when there are events use the LBR hardware. This
patch also removes all old flush branch stack code.

The callback is invoked when process is scheduled in or out.
It provides mechanism for later patches to save/store the LBR
stack. For the schedule in case, the callback is invoked at
the same place that flush branch stack callback is invoked.
So it also can replace the flush branch stack callback. To
avoid unnecessary overhead, the callback is enabled only when
there are events use the LBR stack.

For hardware events, the userspace page of the event gets updated in
context switches, so if we read the timestamp in the page, we get
fresh info.
For software events, this is missing currently. This patch makes the
behavior consistent.
With this patch, we can implement clock_gettime(THREAD_CPUTIME) with
PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY in userspace as suggested by Andy and Peter. Code
like this:
if (pc->cap_user_time) {
do {
seq = pc->lock;
barrier();
running = pc->time_running;
cyc = rdtsc();
time_mult = pc->time_mult;
time_shift = pc->time_shift;
time_offset = pc->time_offset;
barrier();
} while (pc->lock != seq);
quot = (cyc >> time_shift);
rem = cyc & ((1 << time_shift) - 1);
delta = time_offset + quot * time_mult +
((rem * time_mult) >> time_shift);
running += delta;
return running;
}
I tried it on a busy system, the userspace page updating doesn't
have noticeable overhead.

Pull x86 perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This series tightens up RDPMC permissions: currently even highly
sandboxed x86 execution environments (such as seccomp) have permission
to execute RDPMC, which may leak various perf events / PMU state such
as timing information and other CPU execution details.
This 'all is allowed' RDPMC mode is still preserved as the
(non-default) /sys/devices/cpu/rdpmc=2 setting. The new default is
that RDPMC access is only allowed if a perf event is mmap-ed (which is
needed to correctly interpret RDPMC counter values in any case).
As a side effect of these changes CR4 handling is cleaned up in the
x86 code and a shadow copy of the CR4 value is added.
The extra CR4 manipulation adds ~ <50ns to the context switch cost
between rdpmc-capable and rdpmc-non-capable mms"
* 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
perf/x86: Add /sys/devices/cpu/rdpmc=2 to allow rdpmc for all tasks
perf/x86: Only allow rdpmc if a perf_event is mapped
perf: Pass the event to arch_perf_update_userpage()
perf: Add pmu callbacks to track event mapping and unmapping
x86: Add a comment clarifying LDT context switching
x86: Store a per-cpu shadow copy of CR4
x86: Clean up cr4 manipulation
The function is_power_of_2() also do the check on nr_pages, so the first
check performed is unnecessary. On the other hand, the key point is to
ensure @nr_pages is a power-of-two number and mostly @nr_pages is a
nonzero value, so in the most cases, the function is_power_of_2() will
be called.
