perf/core: Fix perf_output_read_group()

2018-05-30T05:49:12Z

[ Upstream commit 9e5b127d6f33468143d90c8a45ca12410e4c3fa7 ] Mark reported his arm64 perf fuzzer runs sometimes splat like: armv8pmu_read_counter+0x1e8/0x2d8 armpmu_event_update+0x8c/0x188 armpmu_read+0xc/0x18 perf_output_read+0x550/0x11e8 perf_event_read_event+0x1d0/0x248 perf_event_exit_task+0x468/0xbb8 do_exit+0x690/0x1310 do_group_exit+0xd0/0x2b0 get_signal+0x2e8/0x17a8 do_signal+0x144/0x4f8 do_notify_resume+0x148/0x1e8 work_pending+0x8/0x14 which asserts that we only call pmu::read() on ACTIVE events. The above callchain does: perf_event_exit_task() perf_event_exit_task_context() task_ctx_sched_out() // INACTIVE perf_event_exit_event() perf_event_set_state(EXIT) // EXIT sync_child_event() perf_event_read_event() perf_output_read() perf_output_read_group() leader->pmu->read() Which results in doing a pmu::read() on an !ACTIVE event. I _think_ this is 'new' since we added attr.inherit_stat, which added the perf_event_read_event() to the exit path, without that perf_event_read_output() would only trigger from samples and for @event to trigger a sample, it's leader _must_ be ACTIVE too. Still, adding this check makes it consistent with the @sub case for the siblings.

perf/cgroup: Fix child event counting bug

2018-05-30T05:49:05Z

[ Upstream commit c917e0f259908e75bd2a65877e25f9d90c22c848 ] When a perf_event is attached to parent cgroup, it should count events for all children cgroups: parent_group <---- perf_event \ - child_group <---- process(es) However, in our tests, we found this perf_event cannot report reliable results. Here is an example case: # create cgroups mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/p/c # start perf for parent group perf stat -e instructions -G "p" # on another console, run test process in child cgroup: stressapptest -s 2 -M 1000 & echo $! > /sys/fs/cgroup/p/c/cgroup.procs # after the test process is done, stop perf in the first console shows instructions p The instruction should not be "not counted" as the process runs in the child cgroup. We found this is because perf_event->cgrp and cpuctx->cgrp are not identical, thus perf_event->cgrp are not updated properly. This patch fixes this by updating perf_cgroup properly for ancestor cgroup(s).

perf: Remove superfluous allocation error check

commit bfb3d7b8b906b66551424d7636182126e1d134c8 upstream. If the get_callchain_buffers fails to allocate the buffer it will decrease the nr_callchain_events right away.

commit 1572e45a924f254d9570093abde46430c3172e3d upstream. Use "proc_dointvec_minmax" instead of "proc_dointvec" to check the input value from user-space. If not, we can set a big value and some vars will overflow like "sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate" which will cause a lot of unexpected problems.

perf/core: Correct event creation with PERF_FORMAT_GROUP

2018-04-13T17:50:19Z

[ Upstream commit ba5213ae6b88fb170c4771fef6553f759c7d8cdd ] Andi was asking about PERF_FORMAT_GROUP vs inherited events, which led to the discovery of a bug from commit: 3dab77fb1bf8 ("perf: Rework/fix the whole read vs group stuff") - PERF_SAMPLE_GROUP = 1U << 4, + PERF_SAMPLE_READ = 1U << 4, - if (attr->inherit && (attr->sample_type & PERF_SAMPLE_GROUP)) + if (attr->inherit && (attr->read_format & PERF_FORMAT_GROUP)) is a clear fail :/ While this changes user visible behaviour; it was previously possible to create an inherited event with PERF_SAMPLE_READ; this is deemed acceptible because its results were always incorrect.

bpf: one perf event close won't free bpf program attached by another perf event

2017-10-21T15:09:02Z

[ Upstream commit ec9dd352d591f0c90402ec67a317c1ed4fb2e638 ] This patch fixes a bug exhibited by the following scenario: 1. fd1 = perf_event_open with attr.config = ID1 2. attach bpf program prog1 to fd1 3. fd2 = perf_event_open with attr.config = ID1 4. user program closes fd2 and prog1 is detached from the tracepoint. 5. user program with fd1 does not work properly as tracepoint no output any more. The issue happens at step 4. Multiple perf_event_open can be called successfully, but only one bpf prog pointer in the tp_event. In the current logic, any fd release for the same tp_event will free the tp_event->prog. The fix is to free tp_event->prog only when the closing fd corresponds to the one which registered the program. Signed-off-by: Yonghong Song Signed-off-by: David S.

perf/core: Fix group {cpu,task} validation

2017-08-30T08:19:25Z

commit 64aee2a965cf2954a038b5522f11d2cd2f0f8f3e upstream. Regardless of which events form a group, it does not make sense for the events to target different tasks and/or CPUs, as this leaves the group inconsistent and impossible to schedule. The core perf code assumes that these are consistent across (successfully intialised) groups. Core perf code only verifies this when moving SW events into a HW context. Thus, we can violate this requirement for pure SW groups and pure HW groups, unless the relevant PMU driver happens to perform this verification itself. These mismatched groups subsequently wreak havoc elsewhere. For example, we handle watchpoints as SW events, and reserve watchpoint HW on a per-CPU basis at pmu::event_init() time to ensure that any event that is initialised is guaranteed to have a slot at pmu::add() time. However, the core code only checks the group leader's cpu filter (via event_filter_match()), and can thus install follower events onto CPUs violating thier (mismatched) CPU filters, potentially installing them into a CPU without sufficient reserved slots. This can be triggered with the below test case, resulting in warnings from arch backends. #define _GNU_SOURCE #include #include #include #include #include #include #include static int perf_event_open(struct perf_event_attr *attr, pid_t pid, int cpu, int group_fd, unsigned long flags) { return syscall(__NR_perf_event_open, attr, pid, cpu, group_fd, flags); } char watched_char; struct perf_event_attr wp_attr = { .type = PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT, .bp_type = HW_BREAKPOINT_RW, .bp_addr = (unsigned long)&watched_char, .bp_len = 1, .size = sizeof(wp_attr), }; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int leader, ret; cpu_set_t cpus; /* * Force use of CPU0 to ensure our CPU0-bound events get scheduled. */ CPU_ZERO(&cpus); CPU_SET(0, &cpus); ret = sched_setaffinity(0, sizeof(cpus), &cpus); if (ret) { printf("Unable to set cpu affinity\n"); return 1; } /* open leader event, bound to this task, CPU0 only */ leader = perf_event_open(&wp_attr, 0, 0, -1, 0); if (leader < 0) { printf("Couldn't open leader: %d\n", leader); return 1; } /* * Open a follower event that is bound to the same task, but a * different CPU. This means that the group should never be possible to * schedule. */ ret = perf_event_open(&wp_attr, 0, 1, leader, 0); if (ret < 0) { printf("Couldn't open mismatched follower: %d\n", ret); return 1; } else { printf("Opened leader/follower with mismastched CPUs\n"); } /* * Open as many independent events as we can, all bound to the same * task, CPU0 only. */ do { ret = perf_event_open(&wp_attr, 0, 0, -1, 0); } while (ret >= 0); /* * Force enable/disble all events to trigger the erronoeous * installation of the follower event. */ printf("Opened all events. Toggling..\n"); for (;;) { prctl(PR_TASK_PERF_EVENTS_DISABLE, 0, 0, 0, 0); prctl(PR_TASK_PERF_EVENTS_ENABLE, 0, 0, 0, 0); } return 0; } Fix this by validating this requirement regardless of whether we're moving events.
