Commit 38b435b1 ("perf: Fix tear-down of inherited group events")
states that we need to destroy groups for inherited events, but it
doesn't make any sense to not also destroy groups for normal events.

And while it usually makes no difference (the normal events won't
leak, and its very likely all the group events will die in quick
succession) it does make the code more consistent and closes a
potential hole for trouble.

Make sure all events in a group have the same inherit state. It was
possible for group leaders to have inherit set while sibling events
would not have inherit set.

In this case we'd still inherit the siblings, leading to some

When removing a (sibling) event we do:

	raw_spin_lock_irq(&ctx->lock);
	perf_group_detach(event);
	raw_spin_unlock_irq(&ctx->lock);

	<hole>

	perf_remove_from_context(event);
		raw_spin_lock_irq(&ctx->lock);
		...
		raw_spin_unlock_irq(&ctx->lock);

Now, assuming the event is a sibling, it will be 'unreachable' for
things like ctx_sched_out() because that iterates the
groups->siblings, and we just unhooked the sibling.

So, if during <hole> we get ctx_sched_out(), it will miss the event
and not call event_sched_out() on it, leaving it programmed on the
PMU.

The subsequent perf_remove_from_context() call will find the ctx is
inactive and only call list_del_event() to remove the event from all
other lists.

Hereafter we can proceed to free the event; while still programmed!

Close this hole by moving perf_group_detach() inside the same
ctx->lock region(s) perf_remove_from_context() has.

The condition on inherited events only in __perf_event_exit_task() is
likely complete crap because non-inherited events are part of groups
too and we're tearing down just the same. But leave that for another
patch.

2. Change arch_uprobe_post_xol() to call arch_uprobe_abort_xol() and

UPROBE_COPY_INSN, UPROBE_SKIP_SSTEP, and uprobe->flags must die. This
patch kills UPROBE_SKIP_SSTEP. I never understood why it was added;
not only it doesn't help, it harms.

It can only help to avoid arch_uprobe_skip_sstep() if it was already
called before and failed. But this is ugly, if we want to know whether
we can emulate this instruction or not we should do this analysis in
arch_uprobe_analyze_insn(), not when we hit this probe for the first
time.

And in fact this logic is simply wrong. arch_uprobe_skip_sstep() can
fail or not depending on the task/register state, if this insn can be
emulated but, say, put_user() fails we need to xol it this time, but
this doesn't mean we shouldn't try to emulate it when this or another
thread hits this bp next time.

And this is the actual reason for this change. We need to emulate the
"call" insn, but push(return-address) can obviously fail.

Per-arch notes:

	x86: __skip_sstep() can only emulate "rep;nop". With this
	     change it will be called every time and most probably
	     for no reason.

	     This will be fixed by the next changes. We need to
	     change this suboptimal code anyway.

	arm: Should not be affected. It has its own "bool simulate"
	     flag checked in arch_uprobe_skip_sstep().

	ppc: Looks like, it can emulate almost everything. Does it
	     actually need to record the fact that emulate_step()
	     failed? Hopefully not. But if yes, it can add the ppc-
	     specific flag into arch_uprobe.

When a group leader is a software event but the group contains

Currently perf_branch_stack_sched_in iterates over the set of pmus,
checks that each pmu has a flush_branch_stack callback, then overwrites
the pmu before calling the callback. This is either redundant or broken.

In systems with a single hw pmu, pmu == cpuctx->ctx.pmu, and thus the
assignment is redundant.

In systems with multiple hw pmus (i.e. multiple pmus with task_ctx_nr ==
perf_hw_context) the pmus share the same perf_cpu_context. Thus the
assignment can cause one of the pmus to flush its branch stack
repeatedly rather than causing each of the pmus to flush their branch
stacks. Worse still, if only some pmus have the callback the assignment
can result in a branch to NULL.

This patch removes the redundant assignment.

We then proceed with destroying and freeing the event, and when you

It will start spewing to early_printk() (which is a lot nicer to use
from NMI context too) when it fails to queue the IRQ-work because its
already enqueued.

It does have the false-positive for when two CPUs trigger the warn
concurrently, but that should be rare and some extra clutter on the
early printk shouldn't be a problem.

css_from_dir() returns the matching css (cgroup_subsys_state) given a
dentry and subsystem.  The function doesn't pin the css before
returning and requires the caller to be holding RCU read lock or
cgroup_mutex and handling pinning on the caller side.

Given that users of the function are likely to want to pin the
returned css (both existing users do) and that getting and putting
css's are very cheap, there's no reason for the interface to be tricky
like this.

Rename css_from_dir() to css_tryget_from_dir() and make it try to pin
the found css and return it only if pinning succeeded.  The callers
are updated so that they no longer do RCU locking and pinning around
the function and just use the returned css.

This will also ease converting cgroup to kernfs.

cgroup_subsys is a bit messier than it needs to be.

* The name of a subsys can be different from its internal identifier
  defined in cgroup_subsys.h.  Most subsystems use the matching name
  but three - cpu, memory and perf_event - use different ones.

* cgroup_subsys_id enums are postfixed with _subsys_id and each
  cgroup_subsys is postfixed with _subsys.  cgroup.h is widely
  included throughout various subsystems, it doesn't and shouldn't
  have claim on such generic names which don't have any qualifier
  indicating that they belong to cgroup.

* cgroup_subsys->subsys_id should always equal the matching
  cgroup_subsys_id enum; however, we require each controller to
  initialize it and then BUG if they don't match, which is a bit
  silly.

This patch cleans up cgroup_subsys names and initialization by doing
the followings.

* cgroup_subsys_id enums are now postfixed with _cgrp_id, and each
  cgroup_subsys with _cgrp_subsys.

* With the above, renaming subsys identifiers to match the userland
  visible names doesn't cause any naming conflicts.  All non-matching
  identifiers are renamed to match the official names.

  cpu_cgroup -> cpu
  mem_cgroup -> memory
  perf -> perf_event

* controllers no longer need to initialize ->subsys_id and ->name.
  They're generated in cgroup core and set automatically during boot.

* Redundant cgroup_subsys declarations removed.

* While updating BUG_ON()s in cgroup_init_early(), convert them to
  WARN()s.  BUGging that early during boot is stupid - the kernel
  can't print anything, even through serial console and the trap
  handler doesn't even link stack frame properly for back-tracing.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

Unlike recent modern userspace API such as:

  epoll_create1 (EPOLL_CLOEXEC), eventfd (EFD_CLOEXEC),
  fanotify_init (FAN_CLOEXEC), inotify_init1 (IN_CLOEXEC),
  signalfd (SFD_CLOEXEC), timerfd_create (TFD_CLOEXEC),
  or the venerable general purpose open (O_CLOEXEC),

perf_event_open() syscall lack a flag to atomically set FD_CLOEXEC
(eg. close-on-exec) flag on file descriptor it returns to userspace.

The present patch adds a PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC flag to allow
perf_event_open() syscall to atomically set close-on-exec.

Having this flag will enable userspace to remove the file descriptor
from the list of file descriptors being inherited across exec,
without the need to call fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) and the
associated race condition between the current thread and another
thread calling fork(2) then execve(2).

This patch fixes a problem with the initialization of the
struct perf_event active_entry field. It is defined inside
an anonymous union and was initialized in perf_event_alloc()
using INIT_LIST_HEAD(). However at that time, we do not know
whether the event is going to use active_entry or hlist_entry (SW).
Or at last, we don't want to make that determination there.
The problem is that hlist and list_head are not initialized
the same way. One is okay with NULL (from kzmalloc), the other
needs to pointers to point to self.

This patch resolves this problem by dropping the union.
This will avoid problems later on, if someone starts using
active_entry or hlist_entry without verifying that they
actually overlap. This also solves the initialization
problem.

as opposed to being tracked via the counter they use.

To save space we use a union with hlist_entry as both
are mutually exclusive (suggested by Jiri Olsa).

3. Kill the dummy definition of uprobe_get_swbp_addr(), nobody
   except handle_swbp() needs it.

4. Purely cosmetic, but move the decl of uprobe_get_swbp_addr()
   up, close to other __weak helpers.

arch_uprobe should be opaque as much as possible to the generic
code, but currently it assumes that insn/ixol must be u8[] of the
known size. Remove this unnecessary dependency, we can use "&" and
and sizeof() with the same effect.

uprobe_task->vaddr is a bit strange. The generic code uses it only
to pass the additional argument to arch_uprobe_pre_xol(), and since
it is always equal to instruction_pointer() this looks even more
strange.

And both utask->vaddr and and utask->autask have the same scope,
they only have the meaning when the task executes the probed insn
out-of-line, so it is safe to reuse both in UTASK_RUNNING state.

This all means that logically ->vaddr belongs to arch_uprobe_task
and we should probably move it there, arch_uprobe_pre_xol() can
record instruction_pointer() itself.

OTOH, it is also used by uprobe_copy_process() and dup_xol_work()
for another purpose, this doesn't look clean and doesn't allow to
move this member into arch_uprobe_task.

This patch adds the union with 2 anonymous structs into uprobe_task.

The first struct is autask + vaddr, this way we "almost" move vaddr
into autask.

The second struct has 2 new members for uprobe_copy_process() paths:
->dup_xol_addr which can be used instead ->vaddr, and ->dup_xol_work
which can be used to avoid kmalloc() and simplify the code.

Note that this union will likely have another member(s), we need
something like "private_data_for_handlers" so that the tracing
handlers could use it to communicate with call_fetch() methods.

Currently we only allocate a single cpu hashtable for per-cpu
swevents; do away with this optimization for it is fragile in the face
of things like perf_pmu_migrate_context().

The easiest thing is to make sure all CPUs are consistent wrt state.

Add two trivial helpers list_next_entry() and list_prev_entry(), they
can have a lot of users including list.h itself.  In fact the 1st one is
already defined in events/core.c and bnx2x_sp.c, so the patch simply
moves the definition to list.h.

1. copy_insn() doesn't look very nice, all calculations are
   confusing and it is not immediately clear why do we read
   the 2nd page first.

2. The usage of inode->i_size is wrong on 32-bit machines.

3. "Instruction at end of binary" logic is simply wrong, it
   doesn't handle the case when uprobe->offset > inode->i_size.

   In this case "bytes" overflows, and __copy_insn() writes to
   the memory outside of uprobe->arch.insn.

   Yes, uprobe_register() checks i_size_read(), but this file
   can be truncated after that. All i_size checks are racy, we
   do this only to catch the obvious mistakes.

Change copy_insn() to call __copy_insn() in a loop, simplify
and fix the bytes/nbytes calculations.

Note: we do not care if we read extra bytes after inode->i_size
if we got the valid page. This is fine because the task gets the
same page after page-fault, and arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() can't
know how many bytes were actually read anyway.

Commit aa59c53f "uprobes: Change uprobe_copy_process() to dup
xol_area" has a stupid typo, we need to setup t->utask->vaddr but
the code wrongly uses current->utask.

Even with this bug dup_xol_work() works "in practice", but only
because get_unmapped_area(NULL, TASK_SIZE - PAGE_SIZE) likely
returns the same address every time.

set_swbp() and set_orig_insn() are __weak, but this is pointless
because write_opcode() is static.

Export write_opcode() as uprobe_write_opcode() for the upcoming
arm port, this way it can actually override set_swbp() and use
__opcode_to_mem_arm(bpinsn) instead if UPROBE_SWBP_INSN.

Currently xol_get_insn_slot() assumes that we should simply copy
arch_uprobe->insn[] which is (ignoring arch_uprobe_analyze_insn)
just the copy of the original insn.

This is not true for arm which needs to create another insn to
execute it out-of-line.

So this patch simply adds the new member, ->ixol into the union.
This doesn't make any difference for x86 and powerpc, but arm
can divorce insn/ixol and initialize the correct xol insn in
arch_uprobe_analyze_insn().

Turn module_init() into __initcall() and kill module_exit().

This code can't be compiled as a module so these module_*()
calls only add the confusion, especially if arch-dependant
code needs its own initialization hooks.

While this is really minor, but strncpy() does the unnecessary
zero-padding till the end of tmp[16] and it is called every time
we are going to use the string literal.

Turn these strncpy()'s into the single strlcpy() under the new
label, saves 72 bytes.

The arch_perf_output_copy_user() default of
__copy_from_user_inatomic() returns bytes not copied, while all other
argument functions given DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() return bytes copied.

Since copy_from_user_nmi() is the odd duck out by returning bytes
copied where all other *copy_{to,from}* functions return bytes not
copied, change it over and ammend DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() to expect bytes
not copied.

Oddly enough DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() already returned bytes not copied
while expecting its worker functions to return bytes copied.
