It can be difficult to figure out for user programs what features
the x86 CPU PMU driver actually supports. Currently it requires
grepping in dmesg, but dmesg is not always available.
This adds a caps directory to /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/,
similar to the caps already used on intel_pt, which can be used to
discover the available capabilities cleanly.
Three capabilities are defined:
- pmu_name: Underlying CPU name known to the driver
- max_precise: Max precise level supported
- branches: Known depth of LBR.
Example:
% grep . /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/caps/*
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/caps/branches:32
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/caps/max_precise:3
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/caps/pmu_name:skylake

Vince reported the following rdpmc() testcase failure:
> Failing test case:
>
> fd=perf_event_open();
> addr=mmap(fd);
> exec() // without closing or unmapping the event
> fd=perf_event_open();
> addr=mmap(fd);
> rdpmc() // GPFs due to rdpmc being disabled
The problem is of course that exec() plays tricks with what is
current->mm, only destroying the old mappings after having
installed the new mm.
Fix this confusion by passing along vma->vm_mm instead of relying on
current->mm.

The intialization function checks for various failure scenarios, but
unfortunately the compiler gets a little confused about the possible
combinations, leading to a false-positive build warning when
-Wmaybe-uninitialized is set:

pr_err(FW_BUG "the BIOS has corrupted hw-PMU resources (MSR %x is %Lx)\n",
We can't actually run into this case, so this shuts up the warning
by initializing the variables to a known-invalid state.

Pull SMP hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update is primarily a cleanup of the CPU hotplug locking code.
The hotplug locking mechanism is an open coded RWSEM, which allows
recursive locking. The main problem with that is the recursive nature
as it evades the full lockdep coverage and hides potential deadlocks.
The rework replaces the open coded RWSEM with a percpu RWSEM and
establishes full lockdep coverage that way.
The bulk of the changes fix up recursive locking issues and address
the now fully reported potential deadlocks all over the place. Some of
these deadlocks have been observed in the RT tree, but on mainline the
probability was low enough to hide them away."

[ Renamed 'n_entries' to 'nr_entries' ]
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
Lazy TLB state is currently managed in a rather baroque manner.
AFAICT, there are three possible states:
- Non-lazy. This means that we're running a user thread or a
kernel thread that has called use_mm(). current->mm ==
current->active_mm == cpu_tlbstate.active_mm and
cpu_tlbstate.state == TLBSTATE_OK.
- Lazy with user mm. We're running a kernel thread without an mm
and we're borrowing an mm_struct. We have current->mm == NULL,
current->active_mm == cpu_tlbstate.active_mm, cpu_tlbstate.state
!= TLBSTATE_OK (i.e. TLBSTATE_LAZY or 0). The current cpu is set
in mm_cpumask(current->active_mm). CR3 points to
current->active_mm->pgd. The TLB is up to date.
- Lazy with init_mm. This happens when we call leave_mm(). We
have current->mm == NULL, current->active_mm ==
cpu_tlbstate.active_mm, but that mm is only relelvant insofar as
the scheduler is tracking it for refcounting. cpu_tlbstate.state
!= TLBSTATE_OK. The current cpu is clear in
mm_cpumask(current->active_mm). CR3 points to swapper_pg_dir,
i.e. init_mm->pgd.
This patch simplifies the situation. Other than perf, x86 stops
caring about current->active_mm at all. We have
cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm pointing to the mm that CR3 references. The
TLB is always up to date for that mm. leave_mm() just switches us
to init_mm. There are no longer any special cases for mm_cpumask,
and switch_mm() switches mms without worrying about laziness.
After this patch, cpu_tlbstate.state serves only to tell the TLB
flush code whether it may switch to init_mm instead of doing a
normal flush.
This makes fairly extensive changes to xen_exit_mmap(), which used
to look a bit like black magic.
Perf is unchanged. With or without this change, perf may behave a bit
erratically if it tries to read user memory in kernel thread context.
We should build on this patch to teach perf to never look at user
memory when cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm != current->mm.

Currently, the SMIs are visible to all performance counters, because
many users want to measure everything including SMIs. But in some
cases, the SMI cycles should not be counted - for example, to calculate
the cost of an SMI itself. So a knob is needed.
When setting FREEZE_WHILE_SMM bit in IA32_DEBUGCTL, all performance
counters will be effected. There is no way to do per-counter freeze
on SMI. So it should not use the per-event interface (e.g. ioctl or
event attribute) to set FREEZE_WHILE_SMM bit.
Adds sysfs entry /sys/device/cpu/freeze_on_smi to set FREEZE_WHILE_SMM
bit in IA32_DEBUGCTL. When set, freezes perfmon and trace messages
while in SMM.
Value has to be 0 or 1. It will be applied to all processors.
Also serialize the entire setting so we don't get multiple concurrent
threads trying to update to different values.

Lukasz reported that perf stat counters overflow handling is broken on KNL/SLM.
Both these parts have full_width_write set, and that does indeed have
a problem. In order to deal with counter wrap, we must sample the
counter at at least half the counter period (see also the sampling
theorem) such that we can unambiguously reconstruct the count.
However commit:
069e0c3c40 ("perf/x86/intel: Support full width counting")
sets the sampling interval to the full period, not half.
Fixing that exposes another issue, in that we must not sign extend the
delta value when we shift it right; the counter cannot have
decremented after all.
With both these issues fixed, counter overflow functions correctly
again.

The following commit:
75925e1ad7 ("perf/x86: Optimize stack walk user accesses")
... switched from copy_from_user_nmi() to __copy_from_user_nmi() with a manual
access_ok() check.
Unfortunately, copy_from_user_nmi() does an explicit check against TASK_SIZE,
whereas the access_ok() uses whatever the current address limit of the task is.
We are getting NMIs when __probe_kernel_read() has switched to KERNEL_DS, and
then see vmalloc faults when we access what looks like pointers into vmalloc
space:

"In this cycle this topic tree has become one of those 'super topics'
that accumulated a lot of changes:
- Add CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y support to the core kernel and enable it on
x86 - preceded by an array of changes. v4.8 saw preparatory changes
in this area already - this is the rest of the work. Includes the
thread stack caching performance optimization. (Andy Lutomirski)
- switch_to() cleanups and all around enhancements. (Brian Gerst)
- A large number of dumpstack infrastructure enhancements and an
unwinder abstraction. The secret long term plan is safe(r) live
patching plus maybe another attempt at debuginfo based unwinding -
but all these current bits are standalone enhancements in a frame
pointer based debug environment as well. (Josh Poimboeuf)
- More __ro_after_init and const annotations. (Kees Cook)
- Enable KASLR for the vmemmap memory region. (Thomas Garnier)"

x86-specific per se, even if they are only used on x86 right now. ]

...
valid_stack_ptr() is buggy: it assumes that all stacks are of size
THREAD_SIZE, which is not true for exception stacks. So the
walk_stack() callbacks will need to know the location of the beginning
of the stack as well as the end.
Another issue is that in general the various features of a stack (type,
size, next stack pointer, description string) are scattered around in
various places throughout the stack dump code.
Encapsulate all that information in a single place with a new stack_info
struct and a get_stack_info() interface.

Currently perf_sched_cb_{inc,dec}() are called from
pmu::{start,stop}(), which has the problem that this can happen from
NMI context, this is making it hard to optimize perf_pmu_sched_task().
Furthermore, we really only need this accounting on pmu::{add,del}(),
so doing it from pmu::{start,stop}() is doing more work than we really
need.

It is known that PMU isn't working in some virtualized environments.
Modify the message issued in that case to mention why hardware PMU
isn't usable instead of reporting it to be broken.
As a side effect this will correct a little bug in the error message:
The error message was meant to be either of level err or info
depending on the environment (native or virtualized). As the level is
taken from the format string and not the printed string, specifying
it via %s and a conditional argument didn't work the way intended.

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"With over 300 commits it's been a busy cycle - with most of the work
concentrated on the tooling side (as it should).
The main kernel side enhancements were:
- Add per event callchain limit: Recently we introduced a sysctl to
tune the max-stack for all events for which callchains were
requested:
$ sysctl kernel.perf_event_max_stack
kernel.perf_event_max_stack = 127
Now this patch introduces a way to configure this per event, i.e.
this becomes possible:
$ perf record -e sched:*/max-stack=2/ -e block:*/max-stack=10/ -a
allowing finer tuning of how much buffer space callchains use.
This uses an u16 from the reserved space at the end, leaving
another u16 for future use.
There has been interest in even finer tuning, namely to control the
max stack for kernel and userspace callchains separately. Further
discussion is needed, we may for instance use the remaining u16 for
that and when it is present, assume that the sample_max_stack
introduced in this patch applies for the kernel, and the u16 left
is used for limiting the userspace callchain (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)
- Optimize AUX event (hardware assisted side-band event) delivery
(Kan Liang)
- Rework Intel family name macro usage (this is partially x86 arch
work) (Dave Hansen)
- Refine and fix Intel LBR support (David Carrillo-Cisneros)
- Add support for Intel 'TopDown' events (Andi Kleen)
- Intel uncore PMU driver fixes and enhancements (Kan Liang)
- ... other misc changes.
Here's an incomplete list of the tooling enhancements (but there's
much more, see the shortlog and the git log for details):
- Support cross unwinding, i.e. collecting '--call-graph dwarf'
perf.data files in one machine and then doing analysis in another
machine of a different hardware architecture. This enables, for
instance, to do:
$ perf record -a --call-graph dwarf
on a x86-32 or aarch64 system and then do 'perf report' on it on a
x86_64 workstation (He Kuang)
- Allow reading from a backward ring buffer (one setup via
sys_perf_event_open() with perf_event_attr.write_backward = 1)
(Wang Nan)
- Finish merging initial SDT (Statically Defined Traces) support, see
cset comments for details about how it all works (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Support attaching eBPF programs to tracepoints (Wang Nan)
- Add demangling of symbols in programs written in the Rust language
(David Tolnay)
- Add support for tracepoints in the python binding, including an
example, that sets up and parses sched:sched_switch events,
tools/perf/python/tracepoint.py (Jiri Olsa)
- Introduce --stdio-color to set up the color output mode selection
in 'annotate' and 'report', allowing emit color escape sequences
when redirecting the output of these tools (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)
- Add 'callindent' option to 'perf script -F', to indent the Intel PT
call stack, making this output more ftrace-like (Adrian Hunter,
Andi Kleen)
- Allow dumping the object files generated by llvm when processing
eBPF scriptlet events (Wang Nan)
- Add stackcollapse.py script to help generating flame graphs (Paolo
Bonzini)
- Add --ldlat option to 'perf mem' to specify load latency for loads
event (e.g. cpu/mem-loads/ ) (Jiri Olsa)
- Tooling support for Intel TopDown counters, recently added to the
kernel (Andi Kleen)"

...
Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have
a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing
support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed
when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file.
This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h
in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. In the case of
some of these which are modular, we can extend that to also include
files that are building basic support functionality but not related
to loading or registering the final module; such files also have
no need whatsoever for module.h
The advantage in removing such instances is that module.h itself
sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed
cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using.
Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for
export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each instance for the
presence of either and replace as needed.
In the case of crypto/glue_helper.c we delete a redundant instance
of MODULE_LICENSE in order to delete module.h -- the license info
is already present at the top of the file.
The uncore change warrants a mention too; it is uncore.c that uses
module.h and not uncore.h; hence the relocation done there.

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
User visible changes:
- Honour the kernel.perf_event_max_stack knob more precisely by not counting
PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER} when deciding when to stop adding entries to
the perf_sample->ip_callchain[] array (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Fix identation of 'stalled-backend-cycles' in 'perf stat' (Namhyung Kim)
- Update runtime using 'cpu-clock' event in 'perf stat' (Namhyung Kim)
- Use 'cpu-clock' for cpu targets in 'perf stat' (Namhyung Kim)
- Avoid fractional digits for integer scales in 'perf stat' (Andi Kleen)
- Store vdso buildid unconditionally, as it appears in callchains and
we're not checking those when creating the build-id table, so we
end up not being able to resolve VDSO symbols when doing analysis
on a different machine than the one where recording was done, possibly
of a different arch even (arm -> x86_64) (He Kuang)
Infrastructure changes:
- Generalize max_stack sysctl handler, will be used for configuring
multiple kernel knobs related to callchains (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Cleanups:
- Introduce DSO__NAME_KALLSYMS and DSO__NAME_KCORE, to stop using
open coded strings (Masami Hiramatsu)

We will use it to count how many addresses are in the entry->ip[] array,
excluding PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER,etc} entries, so that we can really
return the number of entries specified by the user via the relevant
sysctl, kernel.perf_event_max_contexts, or via the per event
perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack knob.
This way we keep the perf_sample->ip_callchain->nr meaning, that is the
number of entries, be it real addresses or PERF_CONTEXT_ entries, while
honouring the max_stack knobs, i.e. the end result will be max_stack
entries if we have at least that many entries in a given stack trace.

This makes perf_callchain_{user,kernel}() receive the max stack
as context for the perf_callchain_entry, instead of accessing
the global sysctl_perf_event_max_stack.

Not all cores prevent using Intel PT and LBRs simultaneously, although
most of them still do as of today. This patch adds an opt-in flag for
such cores to disable mutual exclusivity between PT and LBR; also flip
it on for Goldmont.

The default remains 127, which is good for most cases, and not even hit
most of the time, but then for some cases, as reported by Brendan, 1024+
deep frames are appearing on the radar for things like groovy, ruby.
And in some workloads putting a _lower_ cap on this may make sense. One
that is per event still needs to be put in place tho.
The new file is:
# cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
127
Chaging it:
# echo 256 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
# cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
256
But as soon as there is some event using callchains we get:
# echo 512 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
-bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
#
Because we only allocate the callchain percpu data structures when there
is a user, which allows for changing the max easily, its just a matter
of having no callchain users at that point.

Now that local_clock() is explicitly inlined in sched.h, taking its
pointer would uninline it in the compilation unit where it's done,
making (among other things) comparing pointers to this function
produce different results in different compilation units.
Case in point, x86 perf core's user page updating function compares
event's clock against &local_clock to see if it needs to set zero
time offset related bits in the page.
This patch fixes the latter by looking at the "use_clockid" event
attribute instead, to determine whether local clock is used. Fixing
the uninlined local_clock() in perf core is left as an exercise for
the author of the prior work.
