So far, we tried to disallow grouping exclusive events for the fear of
complications they would cause with moving between contexts. Specifically,
moving a software group to a hardware context would violate the exclusivity
rules if both groups contain matching exclusive events.
This attempt was, however, unsuccessful: the check that we have in the
perf_event_open() syscall is both wrong (looks at wrong PMU) and
insufficient (group leader may still be exclusive), as can be illustrated
by running:
$ perf record -e '{intel_pt//,cycles}' uname
$ perf record -e '{cycles,intel_pt//}' uname
ultimately successfully.
Furthermore, we are completely free to trigger the exclusivity violation
by:
perf -e '{cycles,intel_pt//}' -e '{intel_pt//,instructions}'
even though the helpful perf record will not allow that, the ABI will.
The warning later in the perf_event_open() path will also not trigger, because
it's also wrong.
Fix all this by validating the original group before moving, getting rid
of broken safeguards and placing a useful one to perf_install_in_context().

Currently perf_rotate_context assumes that if the context's nr_events !=
nr_active a rotation is necessary for perf event multiplexing. With
cgroups, nr_events is the total count of events for all cgroups and
nr_active will not include events in a cgroup other than the current
task's. This makes rotation appear necessary for cgroups when it is not.
Add a perf_event_context flag that is set when rotation is necessary.
Clear the flag during sched_out and set it when a flexible sched_in
fails due to resources.

Adding attr_update attribute group into pmu, to allow
having multiple attribute groups for same group name.
This will allow us to update "events" or "format"
directories with attributes that depend on various
HW conditions.
For example having group_format_extra group that updates
"format" directory only if pmu version is 2 and higher:
static umode_t
exra_is_visible(struct kobject *kobj, struct attribute *attr, int i)
{
return x86_pmu.version >= 2 ? attr->mode : 0;
}
static struct attribute_group group_format_extra = {
.name = "format",
.is_visible = exra_is_visible,
};

Currently perf callchain doesn't work well with ORC unwinder
when sampling from trace point. We'll get useless in kernel callchain
like this:
perf 6429 [000] 22.498450: kmem:mm_page_alloc: page=0x176a17 pfn=1534487 order=0 migratetype=0 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL

5541f689495641d7 [unknown] ([unknown])
The root cause is that, for trace point events, it doesn't provide a
real snapshot of the hardware registers. Instead perf tries to get
required caller's registers and compose a fake register snapshot
which suppose to contain enough information for start a unwinding.
However without CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, if failed to get caller's BP as the
frame pointer, so current frame pointer is returned instead. We get
a invalid register combination which confuse the unwinder, and end the
stacktrace early.
So in such case just don't try dump BP, and let the unwinder start
directly when the register is not a real snapshot. Use SP
as the skip mark, unwinder will skip all the frames until it meet
the frame of the trace point caller.
Tested with frame pointer unwinder and ORC unwinder, this makes perf
callchain get the full kernel space stacktrace again like this:

Currently, the address range calculation for file-based filters works as
long as the vma that maps the matching part of the object file starts
from offset zero into the file (vm_pgoff==0). Otherwise, the resulting
filter range would be off by vm_pgoff pages. Another related problem is
that in case of a partially matching vma, that is, a vma that matches
part of a filter region, the filter range size wouldn't be adjusted.
Fix the arithmetics around address filter range calculations, taking
into account vma offset, so that the entire calculation is done before
the filter configuration is passed to the PMU drivers instead of having
those drivers do the final bit of arithmetics.

The reason is that while event init code does several checks
for BTS events and prevents several unwanted config bits for
BTS event (like precise_ip), the PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD allows
to create BTS event without those checks being done.
Following sequence will cause the crash:
If we create an 'almost' BTS event with precise_ip and callchains,
and it into a BTS event it will crash the perf_prepare_sample()
function because precise_ip events are expected to come
in with callchain data initialized, but that's not the
case for intel_pmu_drain_bts_buffer() caller.
Adding a check_period callback to be called before the period
is changed via PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD. It will deny the change
if the event would become BTS. Plus adding also the limit_period
check as well.

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
counters with the following properties:
- counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
- a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
- once counter reaches zero, its further
increments aren't allowed
- counter schema uses basic atomic operations
(set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)
Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.
The variable perf_event_context.refcount is used as pure reference counter.
Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.
** Important note for maintainers:
Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c
have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic
counterparts. Please check Documentation/core-api/refcount-vs-atomic.rst
for more information.
Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides
enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in
some rare cases it might matter.
Please double check that you don't have some undocumented
memory guarantees for this variable usage.
For the perf_event_context.refcount it might make a difference
in following places:
- get_ctx(), perf_event_ctx_lock_nested(), perf_lock_task_context()
and __perf_event_ctx_lock_double(): increment in
refcount_inc_not_zero() only guarantees control dependency
on success vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart
- put_ctx(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() provides
RELEASE ordering and ACQUIRE ordering + control dependency on success
vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart

For better performance analysis of BPF programs, this patch introduces
PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT, a new perf_event_type that exposes BPF program
load/unload information to user space.
Each BPF program may contain up to BPF_MAX_SUBPROGS (256) sub programs.
The following example shows kernel symbols for a BPF program with 7 sub
programs:
ffffffffa0257cf9 t bpf_prog_b07ccb89267cf242_F
ffffffffa02592e1 t bpf_prog_2dcecc18072623fc_F
ffffffffa025b0e9 t bpf_prog_bb7a405ebaec5d5c_F
ffffffffa025dd2c t bpf_prog_a7540d4a39ec1fc7_F
ffffffffa025fcca t bpf_prog_05762d4ade0e3737_F
ffffffffa026108f t bpf_prog_db4bd11e35df90d4_F
ffffffffa0263f00 t bpf_prog_89d64e4abf0f0126_F
ffffffffa0257cf9 t bpf_prog_ae31629322c4b018__dummy_tracepoi
When a bpf program is loaded, PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL is generated for each
of these sub programs. Therefore, PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT is not needed
for simple profiling.
For annotation, user space need to listen to PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT and
gather more information about these (sub) programs via sys_bpf.

For the original mode of operation it isn't needed, since we report back
errors via PERF_RECORD_LOST records in the ring buffer, but for use in
bpf_perf_event_output() it is convenient to return the errors, basically
-ENOSPC.
Currently bpf_perf_event_output() returns an error indication, the last
thing it does, which is to push it to the ring buffer is that can fail
and if so, this failure won't be reported back to its users, fix it.

Many PMU drivers do not have the capability to exclude counting events
that occur in specific contexts such as idle, kernel, guest, etc. These
drivers indicate this by returning an error in their event_init upon
testing the events attribute flags. This approach is error prone and
often inconsistent.
Let's instead allow PMU drivers to advertise their inability to exclude
based on context via a new capability: PERF_PMU_CAP_NO_EXCLUDE. This
allows the perf core to reject requests for exclusion events where
there is no support in the PMU.

Sparse reports the current declaration of two perf percpu variables
with this warning:
warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces)
expected void const [noderef] <asn:3>*__vpp_verify
got struct perf_cpu_context *<noident>
While it's normally perfectly fine to place GCC attributes anywhere
in the definition, this particular attribute is for a checking
compiler's such as Sparse's benefit, which doesn't want __percpu
on pointers.
So reorder the attribute to come after the structure type, not after
the pointer type.

Vince reported the perf_fuzzer giving various unwinder warnings and
Josh reported:

> This is basically the ORC version of that. setup_pebs_sample_data() is

And where the previous unwinder only needed BP,SP ORC also requires
IP. But we cannot spoof IP because then the sample will get displaced,
entirely negating the point of PEBS.
So cure the whole thing differently by doing the unwind early; this
does however require a means to communicate we did the unwind early.
We (ab)use an unused sample_type bit for this, which we set on events
that fill out the data->callchain before the normal
perf_prepare_sample().

As Miklos reported and suggested:
"This pattern repeats two times in trace_uprobe.c and in
kernel/events/core.c as well:
ret = kern_path(filename, LOOKUP_FOLLOW, &path);
if (ret)
goto fail_address_parse;
inode = igrab(d_inode(path.dentry));
path_put(&path);
And it's wrong. You can only hold a reference to the inode if you
have an active ref to the superblock as well (which is normally
through path.mnt) or holding s_umount.
This way unmounting the containing filesystem while the tracepoint is
active will give you the "VFS: Busy inodes after unmount..." message
and a crash when the inode is finally put.
Solution: store path instead of inode."
This patch fixes the issue in kernel/event/core.c.

When hw and sw events are mixed in the same group, they are all attached
to the hw perf_event_context. This sometimes requires moving group of
perf_event to a different context.
We found a bug in how the kernel handles this, for example if we do:
perf stat -e '{faults,ref-cycles,faults}' -I 1000
1.005591180 1,297 faults
1.005591180 457,476,576 ref-cycles
1.005591180 <not supported> faults
First, sw event "faults" is attached to the sw context, and becomes the
group leader. Then, hw event "ref-cycles" is attached, so both events
are moved to the hw context. Last, another sw "faults" tries to attach,
but it fails because of mismatch between the new target ctx (from sw
pmu) and the group_leader's ctx (hw context, same as ref-cycles).
The broken condition is:
group_leader is sw event;
group_leader is on hw context;
add a sw event to the group.
Fix this scenario by checking group_leader's context (instead of just
event type). If group_leader is on hw context, use the ->pmu of this
context to look up context for the new event.

This is a cosmetic patch that deals with the address filter structure's
ambiguous fields 'filter' and 'range'. The former stands to mean that the
filter's *action* should be to filter the traces to its address range if
it's set or stop tracing if it's unset. This is confusing and hard on the
eyes, so this patch replaces it with 'action' enum. The 'range' field is
completely redundant (meaning that the filter is an address range as
opposed to a single address trigger), as we can use zero size to mean the
same thing.

index, so that multiplexing hrtimer interrupt handler would be able
skipping to the current CPU's list and ignore groups allocated for the

New API for manipulating event groups in the trees is implemented as well
as adoption on the API in the current implementation.

Commit 0515e5999a ("bpf: introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT
program type") introduced the bpf_perf_event_data structure which
exports the pt_regs structure. This is OK for multiple architectures
but fail for s390 and arm64 which do not export pt_regs. Programs
using them, for example, the bpf selftest fail to compile on these
architectures.
For s390, exporting the pt_regs is not an option because s390 wants
to allow changes to it. For arm64, there is a user_pt_regs structure
that covers parts of the pt_regs structure for use by user space.
To solve the broken uapi for s390 and arm64, introduce an abstract
type for pt_regs and add an asm/bpf_perf_event.h file that concretes
the type. An asm-generic header file covers the architectures that
export pt_regs today.
The arch-specific enablement for s390 and arm64 follows in separate
commits.

The current even timekeeping, which computes enabled and running
times, uses 3 distinct timestamps to reflect the various event states:
OFF (stopped), INACTIVE (enabled) and ACTIVE (running).
Furthermore, the update rules are such that even INACTIVE events need
their timestamps updated. This is undesirable because we'd like to not
touch INACTIVE events if at all possible, this makes event scheduling
(much) more expensive than needed.
Rewrite the timekeeping to directly use event->state, this greatly
simplifies the code and results in only having to update things when
we change state, or an up-to-date value is requested (read).

eBPF programs would like access to the (perf) event enabled and

event multiplexing (among other things).
This patch extends the interface; a future eBPF patch will utilize
the new functionality.

Revert commit:
75e8387685 ("perf/ftrace: Fix double traces of perf on ftrace:function")
The reason I instantly stumbled on that patch is that it only addresses the
ftrace situation and doesn't mention the other _5_ places that use this
interface. It doesn't explain why those don't have the problem and if not, why
their solution doesn't work for ftrace.
It doesn't, but this is just putting more duct tape on.

Pull x86 cache quality monitoring update from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update provides a complete rewrite of the Cache Quality
Monitoring (CQM) facility.
The existing CQM support was duct taped into perf with a lot of issues
and the attempts to fix those turned out to be incomplete and
horrible.
After lengthy discussions it was decided to integrate the CQM support
into the Resource Director Technology (RDT) facility, which is the
obvious choise as in hardware CQM is part of RDT. This allowed to add
Memory Bandwidth Monitoring support on top.
As a result the mechanisms for allocating cache/memory bandwidth and
the corresponding monitoring mechanisms are integrated into a single
management facility with a consistent user interface"

For understanding how the workload maps to memory channels and hardware
behavior, it's very important to collect address maps with physical
addresses. For example, 3D XPoint access can only be found by filtering
the physical address.
Add a new sample type for physical address.
perf already has a facility to collect data virtual address. This patch
introduces a function to convert the virtual address to physical address.
The function is quite generic and can be extended to any architecture as
long as a virtual address is provided.
- For kernel direct mapping addresses, virt_to_phys is used to convert
the virtual addresses to physical address.
- For user virtual addresses, __get_user_pages_fast is used to walk the
pages tables for user physical address.
- This does not work for vmalloc addresses right now. These are not
resolved, but code to do that could be added.
The new sample type requires collecting the virtual address. The
virtual address will not be output unless SAMPLE_ADDR is applied.
For security, the physical address can only be exposed to root or
privileged user.

I just noticed that hw.itrace_started and hw.config are aliased to the
same location. Now, the PT driver happens to use both, which works out
fine by sheer luck:
- STORE(hw.itrace_start) is ordered before STORE(hw.config), in the
program order, although there are no compiler barriers to ensure that,
- to the perf_log_itrace_start() hw.itrace_start looks set at the same
time as when it is intended to be set because both stores happen in the
same path,
- hw.config is never reset to zero in the PT driver.
Now, the use of hw.config by the PT driver makes more sense (it being a
HW PMU) than messing around with itrace_started, which is an awkward API
to begin with.
This patch replaces hw.itrace_started with an attach_state bit and an
API call for the PMU drivers to use to communicate the condition.

When running perf on the ftrace:function tracepoint, there is a bug
which can be reproduced by:
perf record -e ftrace:function -a sleep 20 &
perf record -e ftrace:function ls
perf script
ls 10304 [005] 171.853235: ftrace:function:
perf_output_begin
ls 10304 [005] 171.853237: ftrace:function:
perf_output_begin
ls 10304 [005] 171.853239: ftrace:function:
task_tgid_nr_ns
ls 10304 [005] 171.853240: ftrace:function:
task_tgid_nr_ns
ls 10304 [005] 171.853242: ftrace:function:
__task_pid_nr_ns
ls 10304 [005] 171.853244: ftrace:function:
__task_pid_nr_ns
We can see that all the function traces are doubled.
The problem is caused by the inconsistency of the register
function perf_ftrace_event_register() with the probe function
perf_ftrace_function_call(). The former registers one probe
for every perf_event. And the latter handles all perf_events
on the current cpu. So when two perf_events on the current cpu,
the traces of them will be doubled.
So this patch adds an extra parameter "event" for perf_tp_event,
only send sample data to this event when it's not NULL.

> fd=perf_event_open();

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.

[ Minor cleanups. ]
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
'perf cqm' never worked due to the incompatibility between perf
infrastructure and cqm hardware support. The hardware uses RMIDs to
track the llc occupancy of tasks and these RMIDs are per package. This
makes monitoring a hierarchy like cgroup along with monitoring of tasks
separately difficult and several patches sent to lkml to fix them were
NACKed. Further more, the following issues in the current perf cqm make
it almost unusable:
1. No support to monitor the same group of tasks for which we do
allocation using resctrl.
2. It gives random and inaccurate data (mostly 0s) once we run out
of RMIDs due to issues in Recycling.
3. Recycling results in inaccuracy of data because we cannot
guarantee that the RMID was stolen from a task when it was not
pulling data into cache or even when it pulled the least data. Also
for monitoring llc_occupancy, if we stop using an RMID_x and then
start using an RMID_y after we reclaim an RMID from an other event,
we miss accounting all the occupancy that was tagged to RMID_x at a
later perf_count.
2. Recycling code makes the monitoring code complex including
scheduling because the event can lose RMID any time. Since MBM
counters count bandwidth for a period of time by taking snap shot of
total bytes at two different times, recycling complicates the way we
count MBM in a hierarchy. Also we need a spin lock while we do the
processing to account for MBM counter overflow. We also currently
use a spin lock in scheduling to prevent the RMID from being taken
away.
4. Lack of support when we run different kind of event like task,
system-wide and cgroup events together. Data mostly prints 0s. This
is also because we can have only one RMID tied to a cpu as defined
by the cqm hardware but a perf can at the same time tie multiple
events during one sched_in.
5. No support of monitoring a group of tasks. There is partial support
for cgroup but it does not work once there is a hierarchy of cgroups
or if we want to monitor a task in a cgroup and the cgroup itself.
6. No support for monitoring tasks for the lifetime without perf
overhead.
7. It reported the aggregate cache occupancy or memory bandwidth over
all sockets. But most cloud and VMM based use cases want to know the
individual per-socket usage.
