commit 003461559ef7a9bd0239bae35a22ad8924d6e9ad upstream.

Decreasing sysctl_perf_event_mlock between two consecutive perf_mmap()s of
a perf ring buffer may lead to an integer underflow in locked memory
accounting. This may lead to the undesired behaviors, such as failures in
BPF map creation.

Address this by adjusting the accounting logic to take into account the
possibility that the amount of already locked memory may exceed the
current limit.

[ Upstream commit 913a90bc5a3a06b1f04c337320e9aeee2328dd77 ]

perf_event_open() limits the sample_period to 63 bits. See:

  0819b2e30ccb ("perf: Limit perf_event_attr::sample_period to 63 bits")

Make ioctl() consistent with it.

Also on PowerPC, negative sample_period could cause a recursive
PMIs leading to a hang (reported when running perf-fuzzer).

[ Upstream commit 52a44f83fc2d64a5e74d5d685fad2fecc7b7a321 ]

The following recent commit:

  c60f83b813e5 ("perf, pt, coresight: Fix address filters for vmas with non-zero offset")

changes the address filtering logic to communicate filter ranges to the PMU driver
via a single address range object, instead of having the driver do the final bit of
math.

That change forgets to take into account kernel filters, which are not calculated
the same way as DSO based filters.

Fix that by passing the kernel filters the same way as file-based filters.
This doesn't require any additional changes in the drivers.

[ 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 &lt;adrian.hunter.intel.com&gt;.

When a child event is allocated in the inherit_event() path, the VMA
based filter offsets are not copied from the parent, even though the
address space mapping of the new task remains the same, which leads to
no trace for the new task until exec.

Commit:

  313ccb9615948 ("perf: Allocate context task_ctx_data for child event")

makes the inherit path skip over the current event in case of task_ctx_data
allocation failure. This, however, is inconsistent with allocation failures
in perf_event_alloc(), which would abort the fork.

Correct this by returning an error code on task_ctx_data allocation
failure and failing the fork in that case.

[ Upstream commit 55a3235fc71bf34303e34a95eeee235b2d2a35dd ]

For userspace to tell the difference between a random signal and an
exception, the exception must include siginfo information.

Using SEND_SIG_FORCED for SIGILL is thus wrong, and it will result
in userspace seeing si_code == SI_USER (like a random signal) instead
of si_code == SI_KERNEL or a more specific si_code as all exceptions
deliver.

Therefore replace force_sig_info(SIGILL, SEND_SIG_FORCE, current)
with force_sig(SIG_ILL, current) which gets this right and is
shorter and easier to type.

commit f3a519e4add93b7b31a6616f0b09635ff2e6a159 upstream.

Commit:

  8a58ddae2379 ("perf/core: Fix exclusive events' grouping")

allows CAP_EXCLUSIVE events to be grouped with other events. Since all
of those also happen to be AUX events (which is not the case the other
way around, because arch/s390), this changes the rules for stopping the
output: the AUX event may not be on its PMU's context any more, if it's
grouped with a HW event, in which case it will be on that HW event's
context instead. If that's the case, munmap() of the AUX buffer can't
find and stop the AUX event, potentially leaving the last reference with
the atomic context, which will then end up freeing the AUX buffer. This
will then trip warnings:

Fix this by using the context's PMU context when looking for events
to stop, instead of the event's PMU context.

[ Upstream commit 4ce54af8b33d3e21ca935fc1b89b58cbba956051 ]

Some hardware PMU drivers will override perf_event.cpu inside their
event_init callback. This causes a lockdep splat when initialized through
the kernel API:

 WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 250 at kernel/events/core.c:2917 ctx_sched_out+0x78/0x208
 pc : ctx_sched_out+0x78/0x208

Fix this by calling perf_install_in_context with event-&gt;cpu, just like
perf_event_open
