On AMD family 15h processors, there are 4 new performance
counters (in addition to 6 core performance counters) that can
be used for counting northbridge events (i.e. DRAM accesses).
Their bit fields are almost identical to the core performance
counters. However, unlike the core performance counters, these
MSRs are shared between multiple cores (that share the same
northbridge).
We will reuse the same code path as existing family 10h
northbridge event constraints handler logic to enforce
this sharing.

When perf annotate runs with no vmlinux file it cannot annotate kernel
symbols because the kallsyms only provides symbol addresses. So it
recommends to run perf buildid-cache to install proper vmlinux image.
But running perf buildid-cache -av vmlinux as the message gives me a
following error:
$ perf buildid-cache -av /home/namhyung/build/kernel/vmlinux
Couldn't add v: No such file or directory
Since the -a option receives a parameter, 'v' should not be after the
option.
In addition -a option is not work for this case since the build-id cache
already has a kallsyms with same build-id so it'll fail with EEXIST.
Use recently added -u (--update) option for it.

uprobe_perf_open/close call the costly uprobe_apply() every time,
we can avoid it if:
- "nr_systemwide != 0" is not changed.
- There is another process/thread with the same ->mm.
- copy_proccess() does inherit_event(). dup_mmap() preserves the
inserted breakpoints.
- event->attr.enable_on_exec == T, we can rely on uprobe_mmap()
called by exec/mmap paths.
- tp_target is exiting. Only _close() checks PF_EXITING, I don't
think TRACE_REG_PERF_OPEN can hit the dying task too often.

Change uprobe_trace_func() and uprobe_perf_func() to return "int". Change
uprobe_dispatcher() to return "trace_ret | perf_ret" although this is not
needed, currently TP_FLAG_TRACE/TP_FLAG_PROFILE are mutually exclusive.
The only functional change is that uprobe_perf_func() checks the filtering
too and returns UPROBE_HANDLER_REMOVE if nobody wants to trace current.
Testing:
# perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 syscall
# perf record -e probe_libc:syscall -i perl -e 'fork; syscall -1 for 1..10; wait'
# perf report --show-total-period
100.00% 10 perl libc-2.8.so [.] syscall
Before this patch:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile
/lib/libc.so.6 syscall 20
A child process doesn't have a counter, but still it hits this breakoint
"copied" by dup_mmap().
After the patch:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile
/lib/libc.so.6 syscall 11
The child process hits this int3 only once and does unapply_uprobe().
Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>
Finally implement uprobe_perf_filter() which checks ->nr_systemwide or
->perf_events to figure out whether we need to insert the breakpoint.
uprobe_perf_open/close are changed to do uprobe_apply(true/false) when
the new perf event comes or goes away.
Note that currently this is very suboptimal:
- uprobe_register() called by TRACE_REG_PERF_REGISTER becomes a
heavy nop, consumer->filter() always returns F at this stage.
As it was already discussed we need uprobe_register_only() to
avoid the costly register_for_each_vma() when possible.
- uprobe_apply() is oftenly overkill. Unless "nr_systemwide != 0"
changes we need uprobe_apply_mm(), unapply_uprobe() is almost
what we need.
- uprobe_apply() can be simply avoided sometimes, see the next
changes.
Testing:
# perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 syscall
# perl -e 'syscall -1 while 1' &
[1] 530
# perf record -e probe_libc:syscall perl -e 'syscall -1 for 1..10; sleep 1'
# perf report --show-total-period
100.00% 10 perl libc-2.8.so [.] syscall
Before this patch:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile
/lib/libc.so.6 syscall 79291
A huge ->nrhit == 79291 reflects the fact that the background process
530 constantly hits this breakpoint too, even if doesn't contribute to
the output.
After the patch:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile
/lib/libc.so.6 syscall 10
This shows that only the target process was punished by int3.

Introduce "struct trace_uprobe_filter" which records the "active"
perf_event's attached to ftrace_event_call. For the start we simply
use list_head, we can optimize this later if needed. For example, we
do not really need to record an event with ->parent != NULL, we can
rely on parent->child_list. And we can certainly do some optimizations
for the case when 2 events have the same ->tp_target or tp_target->mm.
Change trace_uprobe_register() to process TRACE_REG_PERF_OPEN/CLOSE
and add/del this perf_event to the list.
We can probably avoid any locking, but lets start with the "obvioulsy
correct" trace_uprobe_filter->rwlock which protects everything.
Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>
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.

probe_event_enable() does uprobe_register() and only after that sets
utc->tu and tu->consumer/flags. This can race with uprobe_dispatcher()
which can miss these assignments or see them out of order. Nothing
really bad can happen, but this doesn't look clean/safe.
And this does not allow to use uprobe_consumer->filter() we are going
to add, it is called by uprobe_register() and it needs utc->tu.
Change this code to initialize everything before uprobe_register(), and
reset tu->consumer/flags if it fails. We can't race with event_disable(),
the caller holds event_mutex, and if we could the code would be wrong
anyway.
In fact I think uprobe_trace_consumer should die, it buys nothing but
complicates the code. We can simply add uprobe_consumer into trace_uprobe.

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

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.

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.

uprobe_events counts the number of uprobes in uprobes_tree but
it is used as a boolean. We can use RB_EMPTY_ROOT() instead.
Probably no_uprobe_events() added by this patch can have more
callers, say, mmf_recalc_uprobes().

Now that ->register_rwsem is safe under ->mmap_sem we can kill

Simply remove UPROBE_RUN_HANDLER and the corresponding code.
It can only help if uprobe has a single consumer, and in fact
it is no longer needed after handler_chain() was changed to use
->register_rwsem, we simply can not race with uprobe_register().

Now that it safe to use ->consumer_rwsem under ->mmap_sem we can
almost finish the implementation of filter_chain(). It still lacks
the actual uc->filter(...) call but othewrwise it is ready, just
it pretends that ->filter() always returns true.

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.

uprobe_consumer->filter() is pointless in its current form, kill it.
We will add it back, but with the different signature/semantics. Perhaps
we will even re-introduce the callsite in handler_chain(), but not to
just skip uc->handler().

register/unregister verifies that inode/uc != NULL. For what?
This really looks like "hide the potential problem", the caller
should pass the valid data.
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
be cleared before register() and add BUG_ON().
Also add the small comment about the i_size_read() check.
