hw-breakpoints: Rewrite the hw-breakpoints layer on top of perf events This patch rebase the implementation of the breakpoints API on top of perf events instances. Each breakpoints are now perf events that handle the register scheduling, thread/cpu attachment, etc.. The new layering is now made as follows: ptrace kgdb ftrace perf syscall \ | / / \ | / / / Core breakpoint API / / | / | / Breakpoints perf events | | Breakpoints PMU ---- Debug Register constraints handling (Part of core breakpoint API) | | Hardware debug registers Reasons of this rewrite: - Use the centralized/optimized pmu registers scheduling, implying an easier arch integration - More powerful register handling: perf attributes (pinned/flexible events, exclusive/non-exclusive, tunable period, etc...) Impact: - New perf ABI: the hardware breakpoints counters - Ptrace breakpoints setting remains tricky and still needs some per thread breakpoints references. Todo (in the order): - Support breakpoints perf counter events for perf tools (ie: implement perf_bpcounter_event()) - Support from perf tools Changes in v2: - Follow the perf "event " rename - The ptrace regression have been fixed (ptrace breakpoint perf events weren't released when a task ended) - Drop the struct hw_breakpoint and store generic fields in perf_event_attr. - Separate core and arch specific headers, drop asm-generic/hw_breakpoint.h and create linux/hw_breakpoint.h - Use new generic len/type for breakpoint - Handle off case: when breakpoints api is not supported by an arch Changes in v3: - Fix broken CONFIG_KVM, we need to propagate the breakpoint api changes to kvm when we exit the guest and restore the bp registers to the host. Changes in v4: - Drop the hw_breakpoint_restore() stub as it is only used by KVM - EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL hw_breakpoint_restore() as KVM can be built as a module - Restore the breakpoints unconditionally on kvm guest exit: TIF_DEBUG_THREAD doesn't anymore cover every cases of running breakpoints and vcpu->arch.switch_db_regs might not always be set when the guest used debug registers. (Waiting for a reliable optimization) Changes in v5: - Split-up the asm-generic/hw-breakpoint.h moving to linux/hw_breakpoint.h into a separate patch - Optimize the breakpoints restoring while switching from kvm guest to host. We only want to restore the state if we have active breakpoints to the host, otherwise we don't care about messed-up address registers. - Add asm/hw_breakpoint.h to Kbuild - Fix bad breakpoint type in trace_selftest.c Changes in v6: - Fix wrong header inclusion in trace.h (triggered a build error with CONFIG_FTRACE_SELFTEST Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Prasad <prasad@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@web.de> Cc: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Cc: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

hw-breakpoints: Arbitrate access to pmu following registers constraints Allow or refuse to build a counter using the breakpoints pmu following given constraints. We keep track of the pmu users by using three per cpu variables: - nr_cpu_bp_pinned stores the number of pinned cpu breakpoints counters in the given cpu - nr_bp_flexible stores the number of non-pinned breakpoints counters in the given cpu. - task_bp_pinned stores the number of pinned task breakpoints in a cpu The latter is not a simple counter but gathers the number of tasks that have n pinned breakpoints. Considering HBP_NUM the number of available breakpoint address registers: task_bp_pinned[0] is the number of tasks having 1 breakpoint task_bp_pinned[1] is the number of tasks having 2 breakpoints [...] task_bp_pinned[HBP_NUM - 1] is the number of tasks having the maximum number of registers (HBP_NUM). When a breakpoint counter is created and wants an access to the pmu, we evaluate the following constraints: == Non-pinned counter == - If attached to a single cpu, check: (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) || (per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu)))) < HBP_NUM -> If there are already non-pinned counters in this cpu, it means there is already a free slot for them. Otherwise, we check that the maximum number of per task breakpoints (for this cpu) plus the number of per cpu breakpoint (for this cpu) doesn't cover every registers. - If attached to every cpus, check: (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) || (max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *)) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *)))) < HBP_NUM -> This is roughly the same, except we check the number of per cpu bp for every cpu and we keep the max one. Same for the per tasks breakpoints. == Pinned counter == - If attached to a single cpu, check: ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) > 1) + per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu))) < HBP_NUM -> Same checks as before. But now the nr_bp_flexible, if any, must keep one register at least (or flexible breakpoints will never be be fed). - If attached to every cpus, check: ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) > 1) + max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *)) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *))) < HBP_NUM Changes in v2: - Counter -> event rename Changes in v5: - Fix unreleased non-pinned task-bound-only counters. We only released it in the first cpu. (Thanks to Paul Mackerras for reporting that) Changes in v6: - Currently, events scheduling are done in this order: cpu context pinned + cpu context non-pinned + task context pinned + task context non-pinned events. Then our current constraints are right theoretically but not in practice, because non-pinned counters may be scheduled before we can apply every possible pinned counters. So consider non-pinned counters as pinned for now.

hw_breakpoints: Fix per task breakpoint tracking Freeing a perf event can happen in several ways. A task calls perf_event_exit_task() right before exiting. This helper will detach all the events from the task context and queue their removal through free_event() if they are child tasks. The task also loses its context reference there. Releasing the breakpoint slot from the constraint table is made from free_event() that calls release_bp_slot(). We count the number of breakpoints this task is running by looking at the task's perf_event_ctxp and iterating through its attached events. But at this time, the reference to this context has been cleaned up already. So looking at the event->ctx instead of task->perf_event_ctxp to count the remaining breakpoints should solve the problem. At least it would for child breakpoints, but not for parent ones. If the parent exits before the child, it will remove all its events from the context but free_event() will be called later, on fd release time. And checking the number of breakpoints the task has attached to its context at this time is unreliable as all events have been removed from the context. To solve this, we keep track of the list of per task breakpoints. On top of it, we maintain our array of numbers of breakpoints used by the tasks. We use the context address as a task id. So, instead of looking at the number of events attached to a context, we walk through our list of per task breakpoints and count the number of breakpoints that use the same ctx than the one to be reserved or released from the constraint table, and update the count on top of this result. In the meantime it solves a bad refcounting, it also solves a warning, reported by Paul.

We keep track of the pmu users by using three per cpu variables: - nr_cpu_bp_pinned stores the number of pinned cpu breakpoints counters in the given cpu - nr_bp_flexible stores the number of non-pinned breakpoints counters in the given cpu. - task_bp_pinned stores the number of pinned task breakpoints in a cpu The latter is not a simple counter but gathers the number of tasks that have n pinned breakpoints. Considering HBP_NUM the number of available breakpoint address registers: task_bp_pinned[0] is the number of tasks having 1 breakpoint task_bp_pinned[1] is the number of tasks having 2 breakpoints [...] task_bp_pinned[HBP_NUM - 1] is the number of tasks having the maximum number of registers (HBP_NUM). When a breakpoint counter is created and wants an access to the pmu, we evaluate the following constraints: == Non-pinned counter == - If attached to a single cpu, check: (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) || (per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu)))) < HBP_NUM -> If there are already non-pinned counters in this cpu, it means there is already a free slot for them. Otherwise, we check that the maximum number of per task breakpoints (for this cpu) plus the number of per cpu breakpoint (for this cpu) doesn't cover every registers. - If attached to every cpus, check: (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) || (max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *)) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *)))) < HBP_NUM -> This is roughly the same, except we check the number of per cpu bp for every cpu and we keep the max one. Same for the per tasks breakpoints. == Pinned counter == - If attached to a single cpu, check: ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) > 1) + per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu))) < HBP_NUM -> Same checks as before. But now the nr_bp_flexible, if any, must keep one register at least (or flexible breakpoints will never be be fed). - If attached to every cpus, check: ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) > 1) + max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *)) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *))) < HBP_NUM Changes in v2: - Counter -> event rename Changes in v5: - Fix unreleased non-pinned task-bound-only counters. We only released it in the first cpu. (Thanks to Paul Mackerras for reporting that) Changes in v6: - Currently, events scheduling are done in this order: cpu context pinned + cpu context non-pinned + task context pinned + task context non-pinned events. Then our current constraints are right theoretically but not in practice, because non-pinned counters may be scheduled before we can apply every possible pinned counters. So consider non-pinned counters as pinned for now.

hw-breakpoints: Rewrite the hw-breakpoints layer on top of perf events This patch rebase the implementation of the breakpoints API on top of perf events instances. Each breakpoints are now perf events that handle the register scheduling, thread/cpu attachment, etc.. The new layering is now made as follows: ptrace kgdb ftrace perf syscall \ | / / \ | / / / Core breakpoint API / / | / | / Breakpoints perf events | | Breakpoints PMU ---- Debug Register constraints handling (Part of core breakpoint API) | | Hardware debug registers Reasons of this rewrite: - Use the centralized/optimized pmu registers scheduling, implying an easier arch integration - More powerful register handling: perf attributes (pinned/flexible events, exclusive/non-exclusive, tunable period, etc...) Impact: - New perf ABI: the hardware breakpoints counters - Ptrace breakpoints setting remains tricky and still needs some per thread breakpoints references. Todo (in the order): - Support breakpoints perf counter events for perf tools (ie: implement perf_bpcounter_event()) - Support from perf tools Changes in v2: - Follow the perf "event " rename - The ptrace regression have been fixed (ptrace breakpoint perf events weren't released when a task ended) - Drop the struct hw_breakpoint and store generic fields in perf_event_attr. - Separate core and arch specific headers, drop asm-generic/hw_breakpoint.h and create linux/hw_breakpoint.h - Use new generic len/type for breakpoint - Handle off case: when breakpoints api is not supported by an arch Changes in v3: - Fix broken CONFIG_KVM, we need to propagate the breakpoint api changes to kvm when we exit the guest and restore the bp registers to the host. Changes in v4: - Drop the hw_breakpoint_restore() stub as it is only used by KVM - EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL hw_breakpoint_restore() as KVM can be built as a module - Restore the breakpoints unconditionally on kvm guest exit: TIF_DEBUG_THREAD doesn't anymore cover every cases of running breakpoints and vcpu->arch.switch_db_regs might not always be set when the guest used debug registers. (Waiting for a reliable optimization) Changes in v5: - Split-up the asm-generic/hw-breakpoint.h moving to linux/hw_breakpoint.h into a separate patch - Optimize the breakpoints restoring while switching from kvm guest to host. We only want to restore the state if we have active breakpoints to the host, otherwise we don't care about messed-up address registers. - Add asm/hw_breakpoint.h to Kbuild - Fix bad breakpoint type in trace_selftest.c Changes in v6: - Fix wrong header inclusion in trace.h (triggered a build error with CONFIG_FTRACE_SELFTEST Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Prasad <prasad@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@web.de> Cc: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Cc: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

hw_breakpoints: Fix per task breakpoint tracking Freeing a perf event can happen in several ways. A task calls perf_event_exit_task() right before exiting. This helper will detach all the events from the task context and queue their removal through free_event() if they are child tasks. The task also loses its context reference there. Releasing the breakpoint slot from the constraint table is made from free_event() that calls release_bp_slot(). We count the number of breakpoints this task is running by looking at the task's perf_event_ctxp and iterating through its attached events. But at this time, the reference to this context has been cleaned up already. So looking at the event->ctx instead of task->perf_event_ctxp to count the remaining breakpoints should solve the problem. At least it would for child breakpoints, but not for parent ones. If the parent exits before the child, it will remove all its events from the context but free_event() will be called later, on fd release time. And checking the number of breakpoints the task has attached to its context at this time is unreliable as all events have been removed from the context. To solve this, we keep track of the list of per task breakpoints. On top of it, we maintain our array of numbers of breakpoints used by the tasks. We use the context address as a task id. So, instead of looking at the number of events attached to a context, we walk through our list of per task breakpoints and count the number of breakpoints that use the same ctx than the one to be reserved or released from the constraint table, and update the count on top of this result. In the meantime it solves a bad refcounting, it also solves a warning, reported by Paul.

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.

hw_breakpoints: Fix per task breakpoint tracking Freeing a perf event can happen in several ways. A task calls perf_event_exit_task() right before exiting. This helper will detach all the events from the task context and queue their removal through free_event() if they are child tasks. The task also loses its context reference there. Releasing the breakpoint slot from the constraint table is made from free_event() that calls release_bp_slot(). We count the number of breakpoints this task is running by looking at the task's perf_event_ctxp and iterating through its attached events. But at this time, the reference to this context has been cleaned up already. So looking at the event->ctx instead of task->perf_event_ctxp to count the remaining breakpoints should solve the problem. At least it would for child breakpoints, but not for parent ones. If the parent exits before the child, it will remove all its events from the context but free_event() will be called later, on fd release time. And checking the number of breakpoints the task has attached to its context at this time is unreliable as all events have been removed from the context. To solve this, we keep track of the list of per task breakpoints. On top of it, we maintain our array of numbers of breakpoints used by the tasks. We use the context address as a task id. So, instead of looking at the number of events attached to a context, we walk through our list of per task breakpoints and count the number of breakpoints that use the same ctx than the one to be reserved or released from the constraint table, and update the count on top of this result.

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.

hw-breakpoints: Arbitrate access to pmu following registers constraints Allow or refuse to build a counter using the breakpoints pmu following given constraints. We keep track of the pmu users by using three per cpu variables: - nr_cpu_bp_pinned stores the number of pinned cpu breakpoints counters in the given cpu - nr_bp_flexible stores the number of non-pinned breakpoints counters in the given cpu. - task_bp_pinned stores the number of pinned task breakpoints in a cpu The latter is not a simple counter but gathers the number of tasks that have n pinned breakpoints. Considering HBP_NUM the number of available breakpoint address registers: task_bp_pinned[0] is the number of tasks having 1 breakpoint task_bp_pinned[1] is the number of tasks having 2 breakpoints [...] task_bp_pinned[HBP_NUM - 1] is the number of tasks having the maximum number of registers (HBP_NUM). When a breakpoint counter is created and wants an access to the pmu, we evaluate the following constraints: == Non-pinned counter == - If attached to a single cpu, check: (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) || (per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu)))) < HBP_NUM -> If there are already non-pinned counters in this cpu, it means there is already a free slot for them. Otherwise, we check that the maximum number of per task breakpoints (for this cpu) plus the number of per cpu breakpoint (for this cpu) doesn't cover every registers. - If attached to every cpus, check: (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) || (max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *)) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *)))) < HBP_NUM -> This is roughly the same, except we check the number of per cpu bp for every cpu and we keep the max one. Same for the per tasks breakpoints. == Pinned counter == - If attached to a single cpu, check: ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) > 1) + per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu))) < HBP_NUM -> Same checks as before. But now the nr_bp_flexible, if any, must keep one register at least (or flexible breakpoints will never be be fed). - If attached to every cpus, check: ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) > 1) + max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *)) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *))) < HBP_NUM Changes in v2: - Counter -> event rename Changes in v5: - Fix unreleased non-pinned task-bound-only counters. We only released it in the first cpu. (Thanks to Paul Mackerras for reporting that) Changes in v6: - Currently, events scheduling are done in this order: cpu context pinned + cpu context non-pinned + task context pinned + task context non-pinned events. Then our current constraints are right theoretically but not in practice, because non-pinned counters may be scheduled before we can apply every possible pinned counters.

When a breakpoint counter is created and wants an access to the pmu, we evaluate the following constraints: == Non-pinned counter == - If attached to a single cpu, check: (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) || (per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu)))) < HBP_NUM -> If there are already non-pinned counters in this cpu, it means there is already a free slot for them. Otherwise, we check that the maximum number of per task breakpoints (for this cpu) plus the number of per cpu breakpoint (for this cpu) doesn't cover every registers. - If attached to every cpus, check: (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) || (max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *)) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *)))) < HBP_NUM -> This is roughly the same, except we check the number of per cpu bp for every cpu and we keep the max one. Same for the per tasks breakpoints. == Pinned counter == - If attached to a single cpu, check: ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) > 1) + per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu))) < HBP_NUM -> Same checks as before. But now the nr_bp_flexible, if any, must keep one register at least (or flexible breakpoints will never be be fed). - If attached to every cpus, check: ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) > 1) + max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *)) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *))) < HBP_NUM Changes in v2: - Counter -> event rename Changes in v5: - Fix unreleased non-pinned task-bound-only counters. We only released it in the first cpu. (Thanks to Paul Mackerras for reporting that) Changes in v6: - Currently, events scheduling are done in this order: cpu context pinned + cpu context non-pinned + task context pinned + task context non-pinned events. Then our current constraints are right theoretically but not in practice, because non-pinned counters may be scheduled before we can apply every possible pinned counters.

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.

When a breakpoint counter is created and wants an access to the pmu, we evaluate the following constraints: == Non-pinned counter == - If attached to a single cpu, check: (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) || (per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu)))) < HBP_NUM -> If there are already non-pinned counters in this cpu, it means there is already a free slot for them. Otherwise, we check that the maximum number of per task breakpoints (for this cpu) plus the number of per cpu breakpoint (for this cpu) doesn't cover every registers. - If attached to every cpus, check: (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) || (max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *)) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *)))) < HBP_NUM -> This is roughly the same, except we check the number of per cpu bp for every cpu and we keep the max one. Same for the per tasks breakpoints. == Pinned counter == - If attached to a single cpu, check: ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) > 1) + per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu))) < HBP_NUM -> Same checks as before. But now the nr_bp_flexible, if any, must keep one register at least (or flexible breakpoints will never be be fed). - If attached to every cpus, check: ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) > 1) + max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *)) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *))) < HBP_NUM Changes in v2: - Counter -> event rename Changes in v5: - Fix unreleased non-pinned task-bound-only counters. We only released it in the first cpu. (Thanks to Paul Mackerras for reporting that) Changes in v6: - Currently, events scheduling are done in this order: cpu context pinned + cpu context non-pinned + task context pinned + task context non-pinned events. Then our current constraints are right theoretically but not in practice, because non-pinned counters may be scheduled before we can apply every possible pinned counters. So consider non-pinned counters as pinned for now.

hw_breakpoints: Fix per task breakpoint tracking Freeing a perf event can happen in several ways. A task calls perf_event_exit_task() right before exiting. This helper will detach all the events from the task context and queue their removal through free_event() if they are child tasks. The task also loses its context reference there. Releasing the breakpoint slot from the constraint table is made from free_event() that calls release_bp_slot(). We count the number of breakpoints this task is running by looking at the task's perf_event_ctxp and iterating through its attached events. But at this time, the reference to this context has been cleaned up already. So looking at the event->ctx instead of task->perf_event_ctxp to count the remaining breakpoints should solve the problem. At least it would for child breakpoints, but not for parent ones. If the parent exits before the child, it will remove all its events from the context but free_event() will be called later, on fd release time. And checking the number of breakpoints the task has attached to its context at this time is unreliable as all events have been removed from the context. To solve this, we keep track of the list of per task breakpoints. On top of it, we maintain our array of numbers of breakpoints used by the tasks. We use the context address as a task id. So, instead of looking at the number of events attached to a context, we walk through our list of per task breakpoints and count the number of breakpoints that use the same ctx than the one to be reserved or released from the constraint table, and update the count on top of this result. In the meantime it solves a bad refcounting, it also solves a warning, reported by Paul.

hw-breakpoints: Arbitrate access to pmu following registers constraints Allow or refuse to build a counter using the breakpoints pmu following given constraints. We keep track of the pmu users by using three per cpu variables: - nr_cpu_bp_pinned stores the number of pinned cpu breakpoints counters in the given cpu - nr_bp_flexible stores the number of non-pinned breakpoints counters in the given cpu. - task_bp_pinned stores the number of pinned task breakpoints in a cpu The latter is not a simple counter but gathers the number of tasks that have n pinned breakpoints. Considering HBP_NUM the number of available breakpoint address registers: task_bp_pinned[0] is the number of tasks having 1 breakpoint task_bp_pinned[1] is the number of tasks having 2 breakpoints [...] task_bp_pinned[HBP_NUM - 1] is the number of tasks having the maximum number of registers (HBP_NUM). When a breakpoint counter is created and wants an access to the pmu, we evaluate the following constraints: == Non-pinned counter == - If attached to a single cpu, check: (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) || (per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu)))) < HBP_NUM -> If there are already non-pinned counters in this cpu, it means there is already a free slot for them. Otherwise, we check that the maximum number of per task breakpoints (for this cpu) plus the number of per cpu breakpoint (for this cpu) doesn't cover every registers. - If attached to every cpus, check: (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) || (max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *)) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *)))) < HBP_NUM -> This is roughly the same, except we check the number of per cpu bp for every cpu and we keep the max one. Same for the per tasks breakpoints. == Pinned counter == - If attached to a single cpu, check: ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) > 1) + per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu))) < HBP_NUM -> Same checks as before. But now the nr_bp_flexible, if any, must keep one register at least (or flexible breakpoints will never be be fed). - If attached to every cpus, check: ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) > 1) + max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *)) + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *))) < HBP_NUM Changes in v2: - Counter -> event rename Changes in v5: - Fix unreleased non-pinned task-bound-only counters. We only released it in the first cpu. (Thanks to Paul Mackerras for reporting that) Changes in v6: - Currently, events scheduling are done in this order: cpu context pinned + cpu context non-pinned + task context pinned + task context non-pinned events. Then our current constraints are right theoretically but not in practice, because non-pinned counters may be scheduled before we can apply every possible pinned counters.

hw_breakpoints: Fix per task breakpoint tracking Freeing a perf event can happen in several ways. A task calls perf_event_exit_task() right before exiting. This helper will detach all the events from the task context and queue their removal through free_event() if they are child tasks. The task also loses its context reference there. Releasing the breakpoint slot from the constraint table is made from free_event() that calls release_bp_slot(). We count the number of breakpoints this task is running by looking at the task's perf_event_ctxp and iterating through its attached events. But at this time, the reference to this context has been cleaned up already. So looking at the event->ctx instead of task->perf_event_ctxp to count the remaining breakpoints should solve the problem. At least it would for child breakpoints, but not for parent ones. If the parent exits before the child, it will remove all its events from the context but free_event() will be called later, on fd release time. And checking the number of breakpoints the task has attached to its context at this time is unreliable as all events have been removed from the context. To solve this, we keep track of the list of per task breakpoints. On top of it, we maintain our array of numbers of breakpoints used by the tasks. We use the context address as a task id. So, instead of looking at the number of events attached to a context, we walk through our list of per task breakpoints and count the number of breakpoints that use the same ctx than the one to be reserved or released from the constraint table, and update the count on top of this result. In the meantime it solves a bad refcounting, it also solves a warning, reported by Paul.

hw-breakpoints: Rewrite the hw-breakpoints layer on top of perf events This patch rebase the implementation of the breakpoints API on top of perf events instances. Each breakpoints are now perf events that handle the register scheduling, thread/cpu attachment, etc.. The new layering is now made as follows: ptrace kgdb ftrace perf syscall \ | / / \ | / / / Core breakpoint API / / | / | / Breakpoints perf events | | Breakpoints PMU ---- Debug Register constraints handling (Part of core breakpoint API) | | Hardware debug registers Reasons of this rewrite: - Use the centralized/optimized pmu registers scheduling, implying an easier arch integration - More powerful register handling: perf attributes (pinned/flexible events, exclusive/non-exclusive, tunable period, etc...) Impact: - New perf ABI: the hardware breakpoints counters - Ptrace breakpoints setting remains tricky and still needs some per thread breakpoints references. Todo (in the order): - Support breakpoints perf counter events for perf tools (ie: implement perf_bpcounter_event()) - Support from perf tools Changes in v2: - Follow the perf "event " rename - The ptrace regression have been fixed (ptrace breakpoint perf events weren't released when a task ended) - Drop the struct hw_breakpoint and store generic fields in perf_event_attr. - Separate core and arch specific headers, drop asm-generic/hw_breakpoint.h and create linux/hw_breakpoint.h - Use new generic len/type for breakpoint - Handle off case: when breakpoints api is not supported by an arch Changes in v3: - Fix broken CONFIG_KVM, we need to propagate the breakpoint api changes to kvm when we exit the guest and restore the bp registers to the host. Changes in v4: - Drop the hw_breakpoint_restore() stub as it is only used by KVM - EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL hw_breakpoint_restore() as KVM can be built as a module - Restore the breakpoints unconditionally on kvm guest exit: TIF_DEBUG_THREAD doesn't anymore cover every cases of running breakpoints and vcpu->arch.switch_db_regs might not always be set when the guest used debug registers. (Waiting for a reliable optimization) Changes in v5: - Split-up the asm-generic/hw-breakpoint.h moving to linux/hw_breakpoint.h into a separate patch - Optimize the breakpoints restoring while switching from kvm guest to host. We only want to restore the state if we have active breakpoints to the host, otherwise we don't care about messed-up address registers. - Add asm/hw_breakpoint.h to Kbuild - Fix bad breakpoint type in trace_selftest.c Changes in v6: - Fix wrong header inclusion in trace.h (triggered a build error with CONFIG_FTRACE_SELFTEST Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Prasad <prasad@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@web.de> Cc: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Cc: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

hw-breakpoints: Change/Enforce some breakpoints policies The current policies of breakpoints in x86 and SH are the following: - task bound breakpoints can only break on userspace addresses - cpu wide breakpoints can only break on kernel addresses The former rule prevents ptrace breakpoints to be set to trigger on kernel addresses, which is good. But as a side effect, we can't breakpoint on kernel addresses for task bound breakpoints. The latter rule simply makes no sense, there is no reason why we can't set breakpoints on userspace while performing cpu bound profiles. We want the following new policies: - task bound breakpoint can set userspace address breakpoints, with no particular privilege required. - task bound breakpoints can set kernelspace address breakpoints but must be privileged to do that. - cpu bound breakpoints can do what they want as they are privileged already. To implement these new policies, this patch checks if we are dealing with a kernel address breakpoint, if so and if the exclude_kernel parameter is set, we tell the user that the breakpoint is invalid, which makes a good generic ptrace protection. If we don't have exclude_kernel, ensure the user has the right privileges as kernel breakpoints are quite sensitive (risk of trap recursion attacks and global performance impacts).

hw-breakpoints: Change/Enforce some breakpoints policies The current policies of breakpoints in x86 and SH are the following: - task bound breakpoints can only break on userspace addresses - cpu wide breakpoints can only break on kernel addresses The former rule prevents ptrace breakpoints to be set to trigger on kernel addresses, which is good. But as a side effect, we can't breakpoint on kernel addresses for task bound breakpoints. The latter rule simply makes no sense, there is no reason why we can't set breakpoints on userspace while performing cpu bound profiles. We want the following new policies: - task bound breakpoint can set userspace address breakpoints, with no particular privilege required. - task bound breakpoints can set kernelspace address breakpoints but must be privileged to do that. - cpu bound breakpoints can do what they want as they are privileged already. To implement these new policies, this patch checks if we are dealing with a kernel address breakpoint, if so and if the exclude_kernel parameter is set, we tell the user that the breakpoint is invalid, which makes a good generic ptrace protection. If we don't have exclude_kernel, ensure the user has the right privileges as kernel breakpoints are quite sensitive (risk of trap recursion attacks and global performance impacts).

hw-breakpoints: Rewrite the hw-breakpoints layer on top of perf events This patch rebase the implementation of the breakpoints API on top of perf events instances. Each breakpoints are now perf events that handle the register scheduling, thread/cpu attachment, etc.. The new layering is now made as follows: ptrace kgdb ftrace perf syscall \ | / / \ | / / / Core breakpoint API / / | / | / Breakpoints perf events | | Breakpoints PMU ---- Debug Register constraints handling (Part of core breakpoint API) | | Hardware debug registers Reasons of this rewrite: - Use the centralized/optimized pmu registers scheduling, implying an easier arch integration - More powerful register handling: perf attributes (pinned/flexible events, exclusive/non-exclusive, tunable period, etc...) Impact: - New perf ABI: the hardware breakpoints counters - Ptrace breakpoints setting remains tricky and still needs some per thread breakpoints references. Todo (in the order): - Support breakpoints perf counter events for perf tools (ie: implement perf_bpcounter_event()) - Support from perf tools Changes in v2: - Follow the perf "event " rename - The ptrace regression have been fixed (ptrace breakpoint perf events weren't released when a task ended) - Drop the struct hw_breakpoint and store generic fields in perf_event_attr. - Separate core and arch specific headers, drop asm-generic/hw_breakpoint.h and create linux/hw_breakpoint.h - Use new generic len/type for breakpoint - Handle off case: when breakpoints api is not supported by an arch Changes in v3: - Fix broken CONFIG_KVM, we need to propagate the breakpoint api changes to kvm when we exit the guest and restore the bp registers to the host. Changes in v4: - Drop the hw_breakpoint_restore() stub as it is only used by KVM - EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL hw_breakpoint_restore() as KVM can be built as a module - Restore the breakpoints unconditionally on kvm guest exit: TIF_DEBUG_THREAD doesn't anymore cover every cases of running breakpoints and vcpu->arch.switch_db_regs might not always be set when the guest used debug registers. (Waiting for a reliable optimization) Changes in v5: - Split-up the asm-generic/hw-breakpoint.h moving to linux/hw_breakpoint.h into a separate patch - Optimize the breakpoints restoring while switching from kvm guest to host. We only want to restore the state if we have active breakpoints to the host, otherwise we don't care about messed-up address registers. - Add asm/hw_breakpoint.h to Kbuild - Fix bad breakpoint type in trace_selftest.c Changes in v6: - Fix wrong header inclusion in trace.h (triggered a build error with CONFIG_FTRACE_SELFTEST Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Prasad <prasad@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@web.de> Cc: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Cc: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
