perf: Disallow mis-matched inherited group reads

2023-10-25T09:53:24Z

commit 32671e3799ca2e4590773fd0e63aaa4229e50c06 upstream. Because group consistency is non-atomic between parent (filedesc) and children (inherited) events, it is possible for PERF_FORMAT_GROUP read() to try and sum non-matching counter groups -- with non-sensical results. Add group_generation to distinguish the case where a parent group removes and adds an event and thus has the same number, but a different configuration of events as inherited groups. This became a problem when commit fa8c269353d5 ("perf/core: Invert perf_read_group() loops") flipped the order of child_list and sibling_list. Previously it would iterate the group (sibling_list) first, and for each sibling traverse the child_list. In this order, only the group composition of the parent is relevant. By flipping the order the group composition of the child (inherited) events becomes an issue and the mis-match in group composition becomes evident. That said; even prior to this commit, while reading of a group that is not equally inherited was not broken, it still made no sense. (Ab)use ECHILD as error return to indicate issues with child process group composition.

treewide: Remove uninitialized_var() usage

2023-06-09T08:29:01Z

commit 3f649ab728cda8038259d8f14492fe400fbab911 upstream. Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1] (or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings (e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized, either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes. In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], remove all remaining needless uses with the following script: git grep '\buninitialized_var\b' | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u | \ xargs perl -pi -e \ 's/\buninitialized_var$([^$]+)\)/\1/g; s:\s*/\* (GCC be quiet|to make compiler happy) \*/$::g;' drivers/video/fbdev/riva/riva_hw.c was manually tweaked to avoid pathological white-space.

perf/core: Fix hardlockup failure caused by perf throttle

2023-05-17T09:35:50Z

[ Upstream commit 15def34e2635ab7e0e96f1bc32e1b69609f14942 ] commit e050e3f0a71bf ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling") introduces a change in throttling threshold judgment. Before this, compare hwc->interrupts and max_samples_per_tick, then increase hwc->interrupts by 1, but this commit reverses order of these two behaviors, causing the semantics of max_samples_per_tick to change. In literal sense of "max_samples_per_tick", if hwc->interrupts == max_samples_per_tick, it should not be throttled, therefore, the judgment condition should be changed to "hwc->interrupts > max_samples_per_tick". In fact, this may cause the hardlockup to fail, The minimum value of max_samples_per_tick may be 1, in this case, the return value of __perf_event_account_interrupt function is 1. As a result, nmi_watchdog gets throttled, which would stop PMU (Use x86 architecture as an example, see x86_pmu_handle_irq).

perf/core: Fix the same task check in perf_event_set_output

2023-04-20T10:07:34Z

[ Upstream commit 24d3ae2f37d8bc3c14b31d353c5d27baf582b6a6 ] The same task check in perf_event_set_output has some potential issues for some usages. For the current perf code, there is a problem if using of perf_event_open() to have multiple samples getting into the same mmap’d memory when they are both attached to the same process. https://lore.kernel.org/all/92645262-D319-4068-9C44-2409EF44888E@gmail.com/ Because the event->ctx is not ready when the perf_event_set_output() is invoked in the perf_event_open(). Besides the above issue, before the commit bd2756811766 ("perf: Rewrite core context handling"), perf record can errors out when sampling with a hardware event and a software event as below. $ perf record -e cycles,dummy --per-thread ls failed to mmap with 22 (Invalid argument) That's because that prior to the commit a hardware event and a software event are from different task context. The problem should be a long time issue since commit c3f00c70276d ("perk: Separate find_get_context() from event initialization"). The task struct is stored in the event->hw.target for each per-thread event. It is a more reliable way to determine whether two events are attached to the same task. The event->hw.target was also introduced several years ago by the commit 50f16a8bf9d7 ("perf: Remove type specific target pointers"). It can not only be used to fix the issue with the current code, but also back port to fix the issues with an older kernel. Note: The event->hw.target was introduced later than commit c3f00c70276d. The patch may cannot be applied between the commit c3f00c70276d and commit 50f16a8bf9d7. Anybody that wants to back-port this at that period may have to find other solutions.

perf/core: Fix data race between perf_event_set_output() and perf_mmap_close()

[ Upstream commit 68e3c69803dada336893640110cb87221bb01dcf ] Yang Jihing reported a race between perf_event_set_output() and perf_mmap_close(): CPU1 CPU2 perf_mmap_close(e2) if (atomic_dec_and_test(&e2->rb->mmap_count)) // 1 - > 0 detach_rest = true ioctl(e1, IOC_SET_OUTPUT, e2) perf_event_set_output(e1, e2) ... list_for_each_entry_rcu(e, &e2->rb->event_list, rb_entry) ring_buffer_attach(e, NULL); // e1 isn't yet added and // therefore not detached ring_buffer_attach(e1, e2->rb) list_add_rcu(&e1->rb_entry, &e2->rb->event_list) After this; e1 is attached to an unmapped rb and a subsequent perf_mmap() will loop forever more: again: mutex_lock(&e->mmap_mutex); if (event->rb) { ... if (!atomic_inc_not_zero(&e->rb->mmap_count)) { ... mutex_unlock(&e->mmap_mutex); goto again; } } The loop in perf_mmap_close() holds e2->mmap_mutex, while the attach in perf_event_set_output() holds e1->mmap_mutex. As such there is no serialization to avoid this race. Change perf_event_set_output() to take both e1->mmap_mutex and e2->mmap_mutex to alleviate that problem. Additionally, have the loop in perf_mmap() detach the rb directly, this avoids having to wait for the concurrent perf_mmap_close() to get around to doing it to make progress.

perf: Fix sys_perf_event_open() race against self

2022-05-25T07:14:34Z

commit 3ac6487e584a1eb54071dbe1212e05b884136704 upstream. Norbert reported that it's possible to race sys_perf_event_open() such that the looser ends up in another context from the group leader, triggering many WARNs. The move_group case checks for races against itself, but the !move_group case doesn't, seemingly relying on the previous group_leader->ctx == ctx check. However, that check is racy due to not holding any locks at that time. Therefore, re-check the result after acquiring locks and bailing if they no longer match. Additionally, clarify the not_move_group case from the move_group-vs-move_group race.
