Commit 73cdf0c6ea ("perf symbols: Record text offset in dso
to calculate objdump address") started storing the offset of
the text section for all DSOs:
if (elf_section_by_name(elf, &ehdr, &tshdr, ".text", NULL))
dso->text_offset = tshdr.sh_addr - tshdr.sh_offset;
Unfortunately this breaks debuginfo files, because we need to calculate
the offset of the text section in the associated executable file. As a
result perf annotate returns junk for all debuginfo files.
Fix this by using runtime_ss->elf which should point at the executable
when parsing a debuginfo file.

prepare symbol table. get_target_map() is defined inside
util/probe-event.c.
probe-event.c will only get included in perf binary if CONFIG_LIBELF is

inside #ifdef HAVE_LIBELF_SUPPORT to solve compilation error.

The June 2015 Intel SDM introduced IP Compression types 4 and 6. Refer
to section 36.4.2.2 Target IP (TIP) Packet - IP Compression.
Existing Intel PT packet decoder did not support type 4, and got type 6
wrong. Because type 3 and type 4 have the same number of bytes, the
packet 'count' has been changed from being the number of ip bytes to
being the type code. That allows the Intel PT decoder to correctly
decide whether to sign-extend or use the last ip. However that also
meant the code had to be adjusted in a number of places.
Currently hardware is not using the new compression types, so this fix
has no effect on existing hardware.

There are bug reports about miscounting uncore counters on some
client machines like Sandybridge, Broadwell and Skylake. It is
very likely to be observed on idle systems.
This issue is caused by a hardware issue. PERF_GLOBAL_CTL could be
cleared after Package C7, and nothing will be count.
The related errata (HSD 158) could be found in:
www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/specification-updates/4th-gen-core-family-desktop-specification-update.pdf
This patch tries to work around this issue by re-enabling PERF_GLOBAL_CTL
in ->enable_box(). The workaround does not cover all cases. It helps for new
events after returning from C7. But it cannot prevent C7, it will still
miscount if a counter is already active.
There is no drawback in leaving it enabled, so it does not need
disable_box() here.

Some uncore boxes' num_counters value for Haswell server and
Broadwell server are not correct (too large, off by one).
This issue was found by comparing the code with the document. Although
there is no bug report from users yet, accessing non-existent counters
is dangerous and the behavior is undefined: it may cause miscounting or
even crashes.
This patch makes them consistent with the uncore document.

Since instruction decoder now supports EVEX-encoded instructions, two fixes
are needed to correctly handle them in uprobes.
Extended bits for MODRM.rm field need to be sanitized just like we do it
for VEX3, to avoid encoding wrong register for register-relative access.
EVEX has _two_ extended bits: b and x. Theoretically, EVEX.x should be
ignored by the CPU (since GPRs go only up to 15, not 31), but let's be
paranoid here: proper encoding for register-relative access
should have EVEX.x = 1.
Secondly, we should fetch vex.vvvv for EVEX too.
This is now super easy because instruction decoder populates
vex_prefix.bytes[2] for all flavors of (e)vex encodings, even for VEX2.

There's a perf stat bug easy to observer on a machine with only one cgroup:
$ perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -C 0 -G /
# time counts unit events
1.000161699 <not counted> cycles /
2.000355591 <not counted> cycles /
3.000565154 <not counted> cycles /
4.000951350 <not counted> cycles /
We'd expect some output there.
The underlying problem is that there is an optimization in
perf_cgroup_sched_{in,out}() that skips the switch of cgroup events
if the old and new cgroups in a task switch are the same.
This optimization interacts with the current code in two ways
that cause a CPU context's cgroup (cpuctx->cgrp) to be NULL even if a
cgroup event matches the current task. These are:
1. On creation of the first cgroup event in a CPU: In current code,
cpuctx->cpu is only set in perf_cgroup_sched_in, but due to the
aforesaid optimization, perf_cgroup_sched_in will run until the next
cgroup switches in that CPU. This may happen late or never happen,
depending on system's number of cgroups, CPU load, etc.
2. On deletion of the last cgroup event in a cpuctx: In list_del_event,
cpuctx->cgrp is set NULL. Any new cgroup event will not be sched in
because cpuctx->cgrp == NULL until a cgroup switch occurs and
perf_cgroup_sched_in is executed (updating cpuctx->cgrp).
This patch fixes both problems by setting cpuctx->cgrp in list_add_event,
mirroring what list_del_event does when removing a cgroup event from CPU
context, as introduced in:
commit 68cacd2916 ("perf_events: Fix stale ->cgrp pointer in update_cgrp_time_from_cpuctx()")
With this patch, cpuctx->cgrp is always set/clear when installing/removing
the first/last cgroup event in/from the CPU context. With cpuctx->cgrp
correctly set, event_filter_match works as intended when events are
sched in/out.
After the fix, the output is as expected:
$ perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -a -G /
# time counts unit events
1.004699159 627342882 cycles /
2.007397156 615272690 cycles /
3.010019057 616726074 cycles /

The latter seems like the simplest solution. Moving the list-add later

Powerpc has Global Entry Point and Local Entry Point for functions. LEP
catches call from both the GEP and the LEP. Symbol table of ELF contains
GEP and Offset from which we can calculate LEP, but debuginfo does not
have LEP info.
Currently, perf prioritize symbol table over dwarf to probe on LEP for
ppc64le. But when user tries to probe with function parameter, we fall
back to using dwarf(i.e. GEP) and when function called via LEP, probe
will never hit.
For example:
$ objdump -d vmlinux

For second case, perf probed on GEP. So when function will be called via
LEP, probe won't hit.
$ sudo ./perf record -a -e probe:do_sys_open ls
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.195 MB perf.data ]
To resolve this issue, let's not prioritize symbol table, let perf
decide what it wants to use. Perf is already converting GEP to LEP when
it uses symbol table. When perf uses debuginfo, let it find LEP offset
form symbol table. This way we fall back to probe on LEP for all cases.
After patch:
$ sudo ./perf probe 'do_sys_open filename:string'
$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
p:probe/do_sys_open _text+3060904 filename_string=+0(%gpr4):string

The way we're using kernel headers in tools/ now, with a copy that is
made to the same path prefixed by "tools/" plus checking if that copy
got stale, i.e. if the kernel counterpart changed, helps in keeping
track with new features that may be useful for tools to exploit.
For instance, looking at all the changes to bpf.h since it was last
copied to tools/include brings this to toolers' attention:
Need to investigate this one to check how to run a program via perf, setting up
a BPF event, that will take advantage of the way perf already calls clang/LLVM,
sets up the event and runs the workload in a single command line, helping in
debugging such semi cooperative programs:
96ae522795 ("bpf: Add bpf_probe_write_user BPF helper to be called in tracers")
This one needs further investigation about using the feature it improves
in 'perf trace' to do some tcpdumpin' mixed with syscalls, tracepoints,
probe points, callgraphs, etc:
555c8a8623 ("bpf: avoid stack copy and use skb ctx for event output")
Add tracing just packets that are related to some container to that mix:
4a482f34af ("cgroup: bpf: Add bpf_skb_in_cgroup_proto")
4ed8ec521e ("cgroup: bpf: Add BPF_MAP_TYPE_CGROUP_ARRAY")
Definetely needs to have example programs accessing task_struct from a bpf proggie
started from 'perf trace':
606274c5ab ("bpf: introduce bpf_get_current_task() helper")
Core networking related, XDP:
6ce96ca348 ("bpf: add XDP_TX xdp_action for direct forwarding")
6a773a15a1 ("bpf: add XDP prog type for early driver filter")
13c5c240f7 ("bpf: add bpf_get_hash_recalc helper")

The 'perf probe' tool detects a variable's type and use the detected
type to add a new probe. Then, kprobes prints its variable in
hexadecimal format if the variable is unsigned and prints in decimal if
it is signed.
We sometimes want to see unsigned variable in decimal format (i.e.
sector_t or size_t). In that case, we need to investigate the variable's
size manually to specify just signedness.
This patch add signedness casting support. By specifying "s" or "u" as a
type, perf-probe will investigate variable size as usual and use the
specified signedness.
E.g. without this:
$ perf probe -a 'submit_bio bio->bi_iter.bi_sector'
Added new event:
probe:submit_bio (on submit_bio with bi_sector=bio->bi_iter.bi_sector)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:submit_bio -aR sleep 1
$ cat trace_pipe|head
dbench-9692 [003] d..1 971.096633: submit_bio: (submit_bio+0x0/0x140) bi_sector=0x3a3d00

dbench-9692 [003] d..1 971.096687: submit_bio: (submit_bio+0x0/0x140) bi_sector=0x3a3d80
...
// need to investigate the variable size
$ perf probe -a 'submit_bio bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s64'
Added new event:
probe:submit_bio (on submit_bio with bi_sector=bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s64)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:submit_bio -aR sleep 1
With this:
// just use "s" to cast its signedness
$ perf probe -v -a 'submit_bio bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s'
Added new event:
probe:submit_bio (on submit_bio with bi_sector=bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:submit_bio -aR sleep 1
$ cat trace_pipe|head
dbench-9689 [001] d..1 1212.391237: submit_bio: (submit_bio+0x0/0x140) bi_sector=128

When we don't have a tracee (i.e. we're attaching to a task or CPU),
counters can still be running after our workload finishes, and can still
be running as we read their values. As we read events one-by-one, there
can be arbitrary skew between values of events, even within a group.
This means that ratios within an event group are not reliable.
This skew can be seen if measuring a group of identical events, e.g:
# perf stat -a -C0 -e '{cycles,cycles}' sleep 1
To avoid this, we must stop groups from counting before we read the
values of any constituent events. This patch adds and makes use of a new
disable_counters() helper, which disables group leaders (and thus each
group as a whole). This mirrors the use of enable_counters() for
starting event groups in the absence of a tracee.
Closing a group leader splits the group, and without a disabled group
leader the newly split events will begin counting. Thus to ensure counts
are reliable we must defer closing group leaders until all counts have
been read. To do so this patch removes the event closing logic from the
read_counters() helper, explicitly closes the events using
perf_evlist__close(), which also aids legibility.

lkdtm: Fix targets for objcopy usage
lkdtm: fix false positive warning from -Wmaybe-uninitialized
When I initially added the unsafe_[get|put]_user() helpers in commit
5b24a7a2aa ("Add 'unsafe' user access functions for batched
accesses"), I made the mistake of modeling the interface on our
traditional __[get|put]_user() functions, which return zero on success,
or -EFAULT on failure.
That interface is fairly easy to use, but it's actually fairly nasty for
good code generation, since it essentially forces the caller to check
the error value for each access.
In particular, since the error handling is already internally
implemented with an exception handler, and we already use "asm goto" for
various other things, we could fairly easily make the error cases just
jump directly to an error label instead, and avoid the need for explicit
checking after each operation.
So switch the interface to pass in an error label, rather than checking
the error value in the caller. Best do it now before we start growing
more users (the signal handling code in particular would be a good place
to use the new interface).
So rather than
if (unsafe_get_user(x, ptr))
... handle error ..
the interface is now
unsafe_get_user(x, ptr, label);
where an error during the user mode fetch will now just cause a jump to
'label' in the caller.
Right now the actual _implementation_ of this all still ends up being a
"if (err) goto label", and does not take advantage of any exception
label tricks, but for "unsafe_put_user()" in particular it should be
fairly straightforward to convert to using the exception table model.
Note that "unsafe_get_user()" is much harder to convert to a clever
exception table model, because current versions of gcc do not allow the
use of "asm goto" (for the exception) with output values (for the actual
value to be fetched). But that is hopefully not a limitation in the
long term.
[ Also note that it might be a good idea to switch unsafe_get_user() to
actually _return_ the value it fetches from user space, but this
commit only changes the error handling semantics ]

These new defines are guarded by an #ifdef CONFIG_PRINTK - however,
there is already a surrounding #ifdef CONFIG_PRINTK starting a lot

unnecessary.

"This tree was waiting on some media stuff I hadn't had time to get a
stable branchpoint off, so I just waited until it was all in your tree
first.
It's been around a bit on the list and shouldn't affect anything
outside adding the generic API and moving some ARM drivers to using
it"

Since commit 63a4cc2486, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower
portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that
old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
at compile time instead of at runtime.
No intended functional changes in this commit.

Commit abf545484d changed it from an 'rw' flags type to the
newer ops based interface, but now we're effectively leaking
some bdev internals to the rest of the kernel. Since we only
care about whether it's a read or a write at that level, just
pass in a bool 'is_write' parameter instead.
Then we can also move op_is_write() and friends back under
CONFIG_BLOCK protection.

First off, the intention of this pull is to declare that I'll be the
binfmt_misc maintainer (mainly on the grounds of you touched it last,
it's yours). There's no MAINTAINERS entry, but get_maintainers.pl
will now finger me.
The update itself is to allow architecture emulation containers to
function such that the emulation binary can be housed outside the
container itself. The container and fs parts both have acks from
relevant experts.
The change is user visible. To use the new feature you have to add an
F option to your binfmt_misc configuration. However, the existing
tools, like systemd-binfmt work with this without modification.

Pull more xfs updates from Dave Chinner:
"This is the second part of the XFS updates for this merge cycle, and
contains the new reverse block mapping feature for XFS.
Reverse mapping allows us to track the owner of a specific block on
disk precisely. It is implemented as a set of btrees (one per
allocation group) that track the owners of allocated extents.
Effectively it is a "used space tree" that is updated when we allocate
or free extents. i.e. it is coherent with the free space btrees we
already maintain and never overlaps with them.
This reverse mapping infrastructure is the building block of several
upcoming features - reflink, copy-on-write data, dedupe, online
metadata and data scrubbing, highly accurate bad sector/data loss
reporting to users, and significantly improved reconstruction of
damaged and corrupted filesystems. There's a lot of new stuff coming
along in the next couple of cycles,a nd it all builds in the rmap
infrastructure.
As such, it's a huge chunk of new code with new on-disk format
features and internal infrastructure. It warns at mount time as an
experimental feature and that it may eat data (as we do with all new
on-disk features until they stabilise). We have not released
userspace suport for it yet - userspace support currently requires
download from Darrick's xfsprogs repo and build from source, so the
access to this feature is really developer/tester only at this point.
Initial userspace support will be released at the same time kernel
with this code in it is released.
The new rmap enabled code regresses 3 xfstests - all are ENOSPC
related corner cases, one of which Darrick posted a fix for a few
hours ago. The other two are fixed by infrastructure that is part of
the upcoming reflink patchset. This new ENOSPC infrastructure
requires a on-disk format tweak required to keep mount times in
check - we need to keep an on-disk count of allocated rmapbt blocks so
we don't have to scan the entire btrees at mount time to count them.
This is currently being tested and will be part of the fixes sent in
the next week or two so users will not be exposed to this change"

Merge tag 'sh-for-4.8' of git://git.libc.org/linux-sh
Pull arch/sh updates from Rich Felker:
"These changes improve device tree support (including builtin DTB), add
support for the J-Core J2 processor, an open source synthesizable
reimplementation of the SH-2 ISA, resolve a longstanding sigcontext
ABI mismatch issue, and fix various bugs including nommu-specific
issues and minor regressions introduced in 4.6.
The J-Core arch support is included here but to be usable it needs
drivers that are waiting on approval/inclusion from their subsystem
maintainers"
