Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Kernel side changes mostly consist of work on x86 PMU drivers:
- x86 Intel PT (hardware CPU tracer) improvements (Alexander
Shishkin)
- x86 Intel CQM (cache quality monitoring) improvements (Thomas
Gleixner)
- x86 Intel PEBSv3 support (Peter Zijlstra)
- x86 Intel PEBS interrupt batching support for lower overhead
sampling (Zheng Yan, Kan Liang)
- x86 PMU scheduler fixes and improvements (Peter Zijlstra)
There's too many tooling improvements to list them all - here are a
few select highlights:
'perf bench':
- Introduce new 'perf bench futex' benchmark: 'wake-parallel', to
measure parallel waker threads generating contention for kernel
locks (hb->lock). (Davidlohr Bueso)
'perf top', 'perf report':
- Allow disabling/enabling events dynamicaly in 'perf top':
a 'perf top' session can instantly become a 'perf report'
one, i.e. going from dynamic analysis to a static one,
returning to a dynamic one is possible, to toogle the
modes, just press 'f' to 'freeze/unfreeze' the sampling. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Make Ctrl-C stop processing on TUI, allowing interrupting the load of big
perf.data files (Namhyung Kim)
'perf probe': (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Support glob wildcards for function name
- Support $params special probe argument: Collect all function arguments
- Make --line checks validate C-style function name.
- Add --no-inlines option to avoid searching inline functions
- Greatly speed up 'perf probe --list' by caching debuginfo.
- Improve --filter support for 'perf probe', allowing using its arguments
on other commands, as --add, --del, etc.
'perf sched':
- Add option in 'perf sched' to merge like comms to lat output (Josef Bacik)
Plus tons of infrastructure work - in particular preparation for
upcoming threaded perf report support, but also lots of other work -
and fixes and other improvements. See (much) more details in the
shortlog and in the git log"

Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Continued initialization/Kconfig updates: hide most Kconfig options
from unsuspecting users.
There's now a single high level configuration option:
*
* RCU Subsystem
*
Make expert-level adjustments to RCU configuration (RCU_EXPERT) [N/y/?] (NEW)
Which if answered in the negative, leaves us with a single
interactive configuration option:
Offload RCU callback processing from boot-selected CPUs (RCU_NOCB_CPU) [N/y/?] (NEW)
All the rest of the RCU options are configured automatically. Later
on we'll remove this single leftover configuration option as well.
- Remove all uses of RCU-protected array indexes: replace the
rcu_[access|dereference]_index_check() APIs with READ_ONCE() and
rcu_lockdep_assert()

Architectural performance monitoring, version 1, doesn't support fixed counters.
Currently, even if a hypervisor advertises support for architectural
performance monitoring version 1, perf may still try to use the fixed
counters, as the constraints are set up based on the CPU model.
This patch ensures that perf honors the architectural performance monitoring
version returned by CPUID, and it only uses the fixed counters for version 2
and above.
(Some of the ideas in this patch came from Peter Zijlstra.)

Intel PT is a separate PMU and it is not using any of the x86_pmu
code paths, which means in particular that the active_events counter
remains intact when new PT events are created.
However, PT uses the generic x86_pmu PMI handler for its PMI handling needs.
The problem here is that the latter checks active_events and in case of it
being zero, exits without calling the actual x86_pmu.handle_nmi(), which
results in unknown NMI errors and massive data loss for PT.
The effect is not visible if there are other perf events in the system
at the same time that keep active_events counter non-zero, for instance
if the NMI watchdog is running, so one needs to disable it to reproduce
the problem.
At the same time, the active_events counter besides doing what the name
suggests also implicitly serves as a PMC hardware and DS area reference
counter.
This patch adds a separate reference counter for the PMC hardware, leaving
active_events for actually counting the events and makes sure it also
counts PT and BTS events.

Currently, the intel_bts driver relies on the DS area allocated by the x86_pmu
code in its event_init() path, which is a bug: creating a BTS event while
no x86_pmu events are present results in a NULL pointer dereference.
The same DS area is also used by PEBS sampling, which makes it quite a bit
trickier to have a separate one for intel_bts' purposes.
This patch makes intel_bts driver use the same DS allocation and reference
counting code as x86_pmu to make sure it is always present when either
intel_bts or x86_pmu need it.

KVM: x86: fix lapic.timer_mode on restore
|
|
lapic.timer_mode was not properly initialized after migration, which
broke few useful things, like login, by making every sleep eternal.
Fix this by calling apic_update_lvtt in kvm_apic_post_state_restore.
There are other slowpaths that update lvtt, so this patch makes sure
something similar doesn't happen again by calling apic_update_lvtt
after every modification.

After enlarging the PEBS interrupt threshold, there may be some mixed up
PEBS samples which are discarded by the kernel.
This patch makes the kernel emit a PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES record with
the number of possible discarded records when it is impossible to demux
the samples.
It makes sure the user is not left in the dark about such discards.

Currently the PEBS buffer size is 4k, it can only hold about 21
PEBS records. This patch enlarges the PEBS buffer size to 64k
(the same as the BTS buffer).
64k memory can hold about 330 PEBS records. This will significantly
reduce the number of PMIs when batched PEBS interrupts are enabled.

interrupt threshold)
PEBS always had the capability to log samples to its buffers without
an interrupt. Traditionally perf has not used this but always set the
PEBS threshold to one.
For frequently occurring events (like cycles or branches or load/store)
this in term requires using a relatively high sampling period to avoid
overloading the system, by only processing PMIs. This in term increases
sampling error.
For the common cases we still need to use the PMI because the PEBS
hardware has various limitations. The biggest one is that it can not
supply a callgraph. It also requires setting a fixed period, as the
hardware does not support adaptive period. Another issue is that it
cannot supply a time stamp and some other options. To supply a TID it
requires flushing on context switch. It can however supply the IP, the
load/store address, TSX information, registers, and some other things.
So we can make PEBS work for some specific cases, basically as long as
you can do without a callgraph and can set the period you can use this
new PEBS mode.
The main benefit is the ability to support much lower sampling period
(down to -c 1000) without extensive overhead.
One use cases is for example to increase the resolution of the c2c tool.
Another is double checking when you suspect the standard sampling has
too much sampling error.
Some numbers on the overhead, using cycle soak, comparing the elapsed
time from "kernbench -M -H" between plain (threshold set to one) and
multi (large threshold).
The test command for plain:
"perf record --time -e cycles:p -c $period -- kernbench -M -H"
The test command for multi:
"perf record --no-time -e cycles:p -c $period -- kernbench -M -H"
( The only difference of test command between multi and plain is time
stamp options. Since time stamp is not supported by large PEBS
threshold, it can be used as a flag to indicate if large threshold is
enabled during the test. )

When the PEBS interrupt threshold is larger than one record and the
machine supports multiple PEBS events, the records of these events are
mixed up and we need to demultiplex them.
Demuxing the records is hard because the hardware is deficient. The
hardware has two issues that, when combined, create impossible
scenarios to demux.
The first issue is that the 'status' field of the PEBS record is a copy
of the GLOBAL_STATUS MSR at PEBS assist time. To see why this is a
problem let us first describe the regular PEBS cycle:
A) the CTRn value reaches 0:
- the corresponding bit in GLOBAL_STATUS gets set
- we start arming the hardware assist
< some unspecified amount of time later -- this could cover multiple
events of interest >
B) the hardware assist is armed, any next event will trigger it
C) a matching event happens:
- the hardware assist triggers and generates a PEBS record
this includes a copy of GLOBAL_STATUS at this moment
- if we auto-reload we (re)set CTRn
- we clear the relevant bit in GLOBAL_STATUS
Now consider the following chain of events:
A0, B0, A1, C0
The event generated for counter 0 will include a status with counter 1
set, even though its not at all related to the record. A similar thing
can happen with a !PEBS event if it just happens to overflow at the
right moment.
The second issue is that the hardware will only emit one record for two
or more counters if the event that triggers the assist is 'close'. The
'close' can be several cycles. In some cases even the complete assist,
if the event is something that doesn't need retirement.
For instance, consider this chain of events:
A0, B0, A1, B1, C01
Where C01 is an event that triggers both hardware assists, we will
generate but a single record, but again with both counters listed in the
status field.
This time the record pertains to both events.
Note that these two cases are different but undistinguishable with the
data as generated. Therefore demuxing records with multiple PEBS bits
(we can safely ignore status bits for !PEBS counters) is impossible.
Furthermore we cannot emit the record to both events because that might
cause a data leak -- the events might not have the same privileges -- so
what this patch does is discard such events.
The assumption/hope is that such discards will be rare.
Here lists some possible ways you may get high discard rate.
- when you count the same thing multiple times. But it is not a useful
configuration.
- you can be unfortunate if you measure with a userspace only PEBS
event along with either a kernel or unrestricted PEBS event. Imagine
the event triggering and setting the overflow flag right before
entering the kernel. Then all kernel side events will end up with
multiple bits set.

When a fixed period is specified, this patch makes perf use the PEBS
auto reload mechanism. This makes normal profiling faster, because
it avoids one costly MSR write in the PMI handler.
However, the reset value will be loaded by hardware assist. There is a
small delay compared to the previous non-auto-reload mechanism. The
delay time is arbitrary, but very small. The assist cost is 400-800
cycles, assuming common cases with everything cached. The minimum period
the patch currently uses is 10000. In that extreme case it can be ~10%
if cycles are used.

The early_idt_handlers asm code generates an array of entry
points spaced nine bytes apart. It's not really clear from that
code or from the places that reference it what's going on, and
the code only works in the first place because GAS never
generates two-byte JMP instructions when jumping to global
labels.
Clean up the code to generate the correct array stride (member size)
explicitly. This should be considerably more robust against
screw-ups, as GAS will warn if a .fill directive has a negative
count. Using '. =' to advance would have been even more robust
(it would generate an actual error if it tried to move
backwards), but it would pad with nulls, confusing anyone who
tries to disassemble the code. The new scheme should be much
clearer to future readers.
While we're at it, improve the comments and rename the array and
common code.
Binutils may start relaxing jumps to non-weak labels. If so,
this change will fix our build, and we may need to backport this
change.

Pull PCI / ACPI fix from Rafael Wysocki:
"This fixes a bug uncovered by a recent driver core change that
modified the implementation of the ACPI_COMPANION_SET() macro to
strictly rely on its second argument to be either NULL or a valid
pointer to struct acpi_device.
As it turns out, pcibios_root_bridge_prepare() on x86 and ia64 works
with the assumption that the only code path calling pci_create_root_bus()
is pci_acpi_scan_root() and therefore the sysdata argument passed to
it will always match the expectations of pcibios_root_bridge_prepare().
That need not be the case, however, and in particular it is not the
case for the Xen pcifront driver that passes a pointer to its own
private data strcture as sysdata to pci_scan_bus_parented() which then
passes it to pci_create_root_bus() and it ends up being used incorrectly
by pcibios_root_bridge_prepare()"

Linus reported the following new warning on x86 allmodconfig with GCC 5.1:
> ./arch/x86/include/asm/spinlock.h: In function ‘arch_spin_lock’:
> ./arch/x86/include/asm/spinlock.h:119:3: warning: implicit declaration
> of function ‘__ticket_lock_spinning’ [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
> __ticket_lock_spinning(lock, inc.tail);
> ^
This warning triggers because of these hacks in misc.h:
/*
* we have to be careful, because no indirections are allowed here, and
* paravirt_ops is a kind of one. As it will only run in baremetal anyway,
* we just keep it from happening
*/
#undef CONFIG_PARAVIRT
#undef CONFIG_KASAN
But these hacks were not updated when CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS was added,
and eventually (with the introduction of queued paravirt spinlocks in
recent kernels) this created an invalid Kconfig combination and broke
the build.
So add a CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS #undef line as well.
Also remove the _ASM_X86_DESC_H quirk: that undocumented quirk
was originally added ages ago, in:
099e1377269a ("x86: use ELF format in compressed images.")
and I went back to that kernel (and fixed up the main Makefile
which didn't build anymore) and checked what failure it
avoided: it avoided an include file dependencies related
build failure related to our old x86-platforms code.
That old code is long gone, the header dependencies got cleaned
up, and the build does not fail anymore with the totality of
asm/desc.h included - so remove the quirk.

Commit 97badf873ab6 (device property: Make it possible to use
secondary firmware nodes) uncovered a bug in the x86 (and ia64) PCI
host bridge initialization code that assumes bridge->bus->sysdata
to always point to a struct pci_sysdata object which need not be
the case (in particular, the Xen PCI frontend driver sets it to point
to a different data type). If it is not the case, an incorrect
pointer (or a piece of data that is not a pointer at all) will be
passed to ACPI_COMPANION_SET() and that may cause interesting
breakage to happen going forward.
To work around this problem use the observation that the ACPI
host bridge initialization always passes NULL as parent to
pci_create_root_bus(), so if pcibios_root_bridge_prepare() sees
a non-NULL parent of the bridge, it should not attempt to set
an ACPI companion for it, because that means that
pci_create_root_bus() has been called by someone else.

Because mce is arch-specific x86 code, there is little or no
performance benefit of using rcu_dereference_index_check() over using
smp_load_acquire(). It also turns out that mce is the only place that
array-index-based RCU is used, and it would be convenient to drop
this portion of the RCU API.
This patch therefore changes rcu_dereference_index_check() uses to
smp_load_acquire(), but keeping the lockdep diagnostics, and also
changes rcu_access_index() uses to READ_ONCE().

Initially, we were trying to guard against scenarios where somebody
attaches to the system with a hardware debugger while PT is enabled
from software and pt_is_running() tries to make sure we handle this
better, but the truth is, there is still a race window no matter what
and people with hardware debuggers should really know what they are
doing anyway.
In other words, there is no point in keeping this one around, and
it's one RDMSR instructions fewer in the fast path.
The case when PT is enabled by the BIOS at boot time is handled
in the driver initialization path and doesn't use pt_is_running().
This patch gets rid of it.

Currently, the description of pt_buffer_reset_offsets() lacks information
about its calling constraints and ordering with regards to other buffer
management functions.
Add a clarification about when this function has to be called.

The comments in the driver don't make it absolutely clear as to what
exactly is the calling order and other possible constraints of buffer
management functions.
Document constraints and calling order for the buffer configuration
functions. While at it, replace a redundant check in
pt_buffer_reset_markers() with an explanation why it is not needed.

Currently, there's a set-but-not-used variable in setup_topa_index();
this patch gets rid of it. And while at it, fixes a style issue with
brackets around a one-line block.

Don't bother with taking locks if we're not actually going to do
anything. Also, drop the _irqsave(), this is very much only called
from IRQ-disabled context.

For some obscure reason intel_{start,stop}_scheduling() copy the HT
state to an intermediate array. This would make sense if we ever were
to make changes to it which we'd have to discard.
Except we don't. By the time we call intel_commit_scheduling() we're;
as the name implies; committed to them. We'll never back out.
A further hint its pointless is that stop_scheduling() unconditionally
publishes the state.
So the intermediate array is pointless, modify the state in place and
kill the extra array.
And remove the pointless array initialization: INTEL_EXCL_UNUSED == 0.
Note; all is serialized by intel_excl_cntr::lock.

Both intel_commit_scheduling() and intel_get_excl_contraints() test
for cntr < 0.
The only way that can happen (aside from a bug) is through
validate_event(), however that is already captured by the
cpuc->is_fake test.
So remove these test and simplify the code.

The intel_commit_scheduling() callback is pointlessly different from
the start and stop scheduling callback.
Furthermore, the constraint should never be NULL, so remove that test.
Even though we'll never get called (because we NULL the callbacks)
when !is_ht_workaround_enabled() put that test in.
Collapse the (pointless) WARN_ON_ONCE() and bail on !cpuc->excl_cntrs --
this is doubly pointless, because its the same condition as
is_ht_workaround_enabled() which was already pointless because the
whole method won't ever be called.
Furthremore, make all the !excl_cntrs test WARN_ON_ONCE(); they're all
pointless, because the above, either the function
({get,put}_excl_constraint) are already predicated on it existing or
the is_ht_workaround_enabled() thing is the same test.

We have two 'struct event_constraint' local variables in
intel_get_excl_constraints(): 'cx' and 'c'.
Instead of using 'cx' after the dynamic allocation, put all 'cx' inside
the dynamic allocation block and use 'c' outside of it.
Also use direct assignment to copy the structure; let the compiler
figure it out.
