Since merged pages are copied every time they need to be modified, the
write access time is different between shared and non-shared pages. Add
ksm_cow_time() function which evaluates latency of these COW breaks.
First, 4000 pages are allocated and the time, required to modify 1 byte in
every other page, is measured. After this, the pages are merged into 2000
pairs and in each pair, 1 page is modified (i.e. they are decoupled) to
detect COW breaks. The time needed to break COW of merged pages is then
compared with performance of non-shared pages.
The test is run as follows: ./ksm_tests -C
The output:
Total size: 15 MiB
Not merged pages:
Total time: 0.002185489 s
Average speed: 3202.945 MiB/s
Merged pages:
Total time: 0.004386872 s
Average speed: 1595.670 MiB/s

When userfaultfd copy-ioctl fails since the PTE already exists, an -EEXIST
error is returned and the faulting thread is not woken. The current
userfaultfd test does not wake the faulting thread in such case. The
assumption is presumably that another thread set the PTE through copy/wp
ioctl and would wake the faulting thread or that alternatively the fault
handler would realize there is no need to "must_wait" and continue. This
is not necessarily true.
There is an assumption that the "must_wait" tests in handle_userfault()
are sufficient to provide definitive answer whether the offending PTE is
populated or not. However, userfaultfd_must_wait() test is lockless.
Consequently, concurrent calls to ptep_modify_prot_start(), for instance,
can clear the PTE and can cause userfaultfd_must_wait() to wrongly assume
it is not populated and a wait is needed.
There are therefore 3 options:
(1) Change the tests to wake on copy failure.
(2) Wake faulting thread unconditionally on zero/copy ioctls before
returning -EEXIST.
(3) Change the userfaultfd_must_wait() to hold locks.
This patch took the first approach, but the others are valid solutions
with different tradeoffs.

There are several test cases in the vm directory are still using exit 0
when they need to be skipped. Use the kselftest framework to skip code
instead so it can help us to distinguish the return status.
Criterion to filter out what should be fixed in vm directory:
grep -r "exit 0" -B1 | grep -i skip
This change might cause some false-positives if people are running these
test scripts directly and only checking their return codes, which will
change from 0 to 4. However I think the impact should be small as most of
our scripts here are already using this skip code. And there will be no
such issue if running them with the kselftest framework.

A perf uncore PMU may have two PMU names, a real name and an alias. The
alias is exported at /sys/bus/event_source/devices/uncore_*/alias.
The perf tool should support the alias as well.
Add alias_name in the struct perf_pmu to store the alias. For the PMU
which doesn't have an alias. It's NULL.
Introduce two X86 specific functions to retrieve the real name and the
alias separately.
Only go through the sysfs to retrieve the mapping between the real name
and the alias once. The result is cached in a list, uncore_pmu_list.
Nothing changed for the other ARCHs.
With the patch, the perf tool can monitor the PMU with either the real
name or the alias.
Use the real name,
$ perf stat -e uncore_cha_2/event=1/ -x,
4044879584,,uncore_cha_2/event=1/,2528059205,100.00,,
Use the alias,
$ perf stat -e uncore_type_0_2/event=1/ -x,
3659675336,,uncore_type_0_2/event=1/,2287306455,100.00,,
Committer notes:
Rename 'struct perf_pmu_alias_name' to 'pmu_alias', the 'perf_' prefix
should be used for libperf, things inside just tools/perf/ are being
moved away from that prefix.
Also 'pmu_alias' is shorter and reflects the abstraction.
Also don't use 'pmu' as the name for variables for that type, we should
use that for the 'struct perf_pmu' variables, avoiding confusion. Use
'pmu_alias' for 'struct pmu_alias' variables.

perf_events may sometimes throttle an event due to creating too many
samples during a given timer tick.
As of now, the perf tool will not report on throttling, which means this
is a silent error.
Implement a callback for the throttle and unthrottle events within the
Python scripting engine, which can allow scripts to detect and report
when events may have been lost due to throttling.
The simplest script to report throttle events is:
def throttle(*args):
print("throttle" + repr(args))
def unthrottle(*args):
print("unthrottle" + repr(args))

When build perf tool with passing option 'CORESIGHT=1' explicitly, if
the feature test fails for library libopencsd, the build doesn't
complain the feature failure and continue to build the tool with
disabling the CoreSight feature insteadly.
This patch changes the building behaviour, when build perf tool with the
option 'CORESIGHT=1' and detect the failure for testing feature
libopencsd, the build process will be aborted and it shows the complaint
info.
Committer testing:
First make sure there is no opencsd library installed:
$ rpm -qa | grep -i csd
$ sudo rm -rf `find /usr/local -name "*csd*"`
$ find /usr/local -name "*csd*"
$
Then cleanup the perf build output directory:
$ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ;
$
And try to build explicitely asking for coresight:
$ make O=/tmp/build/perf CORESIGHT=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin
make: Entering directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
BUILD: Doing 'make -j24' parallel build
HOSTCC /tmp/build/perf/fixdep.o
HOSTLD /tmp/build/perf/fixdep-in.o
LINK /tmp/build/perf/fixdep
Makefile.config:493: *** Error: No libopencsd library found or the version is not up-to-date. Please install recent libopencsd to build with CORESIGHT=1. Stop.
make[1]: *** [Makefile.perf:238: sub-make] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:113: install-bin] Error 2
make: Leaving directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
$
Now install the opencsd library present in Fedora 34:
$ sudo dnf install opencsd-devel
<SNIP>
Installed:
opencsd-1.0.0-1.fc34.x86_64 opencsd-devel-1.0.0-1.fc34.x86_64
Complete!
$
Try again building with coresight:
$ make O=/tmp/build/perf CORESIGHT=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin
make: Entering directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
BUILD: Doing 'make -j24' parallel build
Makefile.config:493: *** Error: No libopencsd library found or the version is not up-to-date. Please install recent libopencsd to build with CORESIGHT=1. Stop.
make[1]: *** [Makefile.perf:238: sub-make] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:113: install-bin] Error 2
make: Leaving directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
$
Since Fedora 34 is pretty recent, one assumes we need to get it from its
upstream git repository, use rpm to find where that is:
$ rpm -q --qf "%{URL}\n" opencsd
https://github.com/Linaro/OpenCSD
$
Go there, clone the repo, build it and install into /usr/local, then try
again:
$ cd ~acme/git/perf
$ make O=/tmp/build/perf VF=1 CORESIGHT=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin | grep -i opencsd
... libopencsd: [ on ]
PERF_VERSION = 5.14.g454719f67a3d
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
$ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep opencsd
libopencsd_c_api.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libopencsd_c_api.so.1 (0x00007f28f78a4000)
libopencsd.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libopencsd.so.1 (0x00007f28f6a2e000)
$
Now it works.

Pull exit cleanups from Eric Biederman:
"In preparation of doing something about PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT I have
started cleaning up various pieces of code related to do_exit. Most of
that code I did not manage to get tested and reviewed before the merge
window opened but a handful of very useful cleanups are ready to be
merged.
The first change is simply the removal of the bdflush system call. The
code has now been disabled long enough that even the oldest userspace
working userspace setups anyone can find to test are fine with the
bdflush system call being removed.
Changing m68k fsp040_die to use force_sigsegv(SIGSEGV) instead of
calling do_exit directly is interesting only in that it is nearly the
most difficult of the incorrect uses of do_exit to remove.
The change to the seccomp code to simply send a signal instead of
calling do_coredump directly is a very nice little cleanup made
possible by realizing the existing signal sending helpers were missing
a little bit of functionality that is easy to provide"

Currently the clean target when using O= isn't cleaning the feature
detect output. This is because O= and OUTPUT= are set to canonical
paths. For example in tools/perf/Makefile:
FULL_O := $(shell cd $(PWD); readlink -f $(O) || echo $(O))
This means that OUTPUT ends in a / and most usages prepend it to a file
without adding an extra /. This line that was changed adds an extra /
before the 'feature' folder but not to the end, resulting in a clean
command like this:
rm -f /tmp/build//featuretest-all.bin ...
After the change the clean command looks like this:
rm -f /tmp/build/feature/test-all.bin ...

Pull move_mount updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains an extension to the move_mount() syscall making it
possible to add a single private mount into an existing propagation
tree.
The use-case comes from the criu folks which have been struggling with
restoring complex mount trees for a long time. Variations of this work
have been discussed at Plumbers before, e.g.
https://www.linuxplumbersconf.org/event/7/contributions/640/
The extension to move_mount() enables criu to restore any set of mount
namespaces, mount trees and sharing group trees without introducing
yet more complexity into mount propagation itself.
The changes required to criu to make use of this and restore complex
propagation trees are available at
https://github.com/Snorch/criu/commits/mount-v2-poc
A cleaned-up version of this will go up for merging into the main criu
repo after this lands"
