perf/cgroups: Don't rotate events for cgroups unnecessarily

2021-06-10T11:24:08Z

commit fd7d55172d1e2e501e6da0a5c1de25f06612dc2e upstream. 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.

perf, pt, coresight: Fix address filters for vmas with non-zero offset

2020-01-27T13:50:27Z

[ Upstream commit c60f83b813e5b25ccd5de7e8c8925c31b3aebcc1 ] 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. Based on the patch by Adrian Hunter .

perf/core: Fix exclusive events' grouping

2019-07-28T06:29:28Z

commit 8a58ddae23796c733c5dfbd717538d89d036c5bd upstream. 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().

perf/x86: Add check_period PMU callback

2019-02-20T09:25:45Z

commit 81ec3f3c4c4d78f2d3b6689c9816bfbdf7417dbb upstream. Vince (and later on Ravi) reported crashes in the BTS code during fuzzing with the following backtrace: general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI ... RIP: 0010:perf_prepare_sample+0x8f/0x510 ...

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.

perf/x86/intel: Fix unwind errors from PEBS entries (mk-II)

2018-07-25T09:46:21Z

Vince reported the perf_fuzzer giving various unwinder warnings and Josh reported: > Deja vu. Most of these are related to perf PEBS, similar to the > following issue: > > b8000586c90b ("perf/x86/intel: Cure bogus unwind from PEBS entries") > > This is basically the ORC version of that. setup_pebs_sample_data() is > assembling a franken-pt_regs which ORC isn't happy about. RIP is > inconsistent with some of the other registers (like RSP and RBP). 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().

perf/core: Fix bad use of igrab()

2018-05-25T06:11:10Z

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.
