perf/x86/intel: Limit to half counters when the HT workaround is enabled, to avoid exclusive mode starvation This patch limits the number of counters available to each CPU when the HT bug workaround is enabled. This is necessary to avoid situation of counter starvation. Such can arise from configuration where one HT thread, HT0, is using all 4 counters with corrupting events which require exclusion the the sibling HT, HT1. In such case, HT1 would not be able to schedule any event until HT0 is done. To mitigate this problem, this patch artificially limits the number of counters to 2. That way, we can gurantee that at least 2 counters are not in exclusive mode and therefore allow the sibling thread to schedule events of the same type (system vs. per-thread). The 2 counters are not determined in advance. We simply set the limit to two events per HT. This helps mitigate starvation in case of events with specific counter constraints such a PREC_DIST. Note that this does not elimintate the starvation is all cases. But it is better than not having it. (Solution suggested by Peter Zjilstra.)

This patch implements a software workaround for a HW erratum on Intel SandyBridge, IvyBridge and Haswell processors with Hyperthreading enabled. The errata are documented for each processor in their respective specification update documents: - SandyBridge: BJ122 - IvyBridge: BV98 - Haswell: HSD29 The bug causes silent counter corruption across hyperthreads only when measuring certain memory events (0xd0, 0xd1, 0xd2, 0xd3). Counters measuring those events may leak counts to the sibling counter. For instance, counter 0, thread 0 measuring event 0xd0, may leak to counter 0, thread 1, regardless of the event measured there. The size of the leak is not predictible. It all depends on the workload and the state of each sibling hyper-thread. The corrupting events do undercount as a consequence of the leak. The leak is compensated automatically only when the sibling counter measures the exact same corrupting event AND the workload is on the two threads is the same. Given, there is no way to guarantee this, a work-around is necessary. Furthermore, there is a serious problem if the leaked count is added to a low-occurrence event. In that case the corruption on the low occurrence event can be very large, e.g., orders of magnitude. There is no HW or FW workaround for this problem. The bug is very easy to reproduce on a loaded system. Here is an example on a Haswell client, where CPU0, CPU4 are siblings. We load the CPUs with a simple triad app streaming large floating-point vector. We use 0x81d0 corrupting event (MEM_UOPS_RETIRED:ALL_LOADS) and 0x20cc (ROB_MISC_EVENTS:LBR_INSERTS). Given we are not using the LBR, the 0x20cc event should be zero. $ taskset -c 0 triad & $ taskset -c 4 triad & $ perf stat -a -C 0 -e r81d0 sleep 100 & $ perf stat -a -C 4 -r20cc sleep 10 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 139 277 291 r20cc 10,000969126 seconds time elapsed In this example, 0x81d0 and r20cc ar eusing sinling counters on CPU0 and CPU4. 0x81d0 leaks into 0x20cc and corrupts it from 0 to 139 millions occurrences. This patch provides a software workaround to this problem by modifying the way events are scheduled onto counters by the kernel. The patch forces cross-thread mutual exclusion between counters in case a corrupting event is measured by one of the hyper-threads. If thread 0, counter 0 is measuring event 0xd0, then nothing can be measured on counter 0, thread 1. If no corrupting event is measured on any hyper-thread, event scheduling proceeds as before. The same example run with the workaround enabled, yield the correct answer: $ taskset -c 0 triad & $ taskset -c 4 triad & $ perf stat -a -C 0 -e r81d0 sleep 100 & $ perf stat -a -C 4 -r20cc sleep 10 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 0 r20cc 10,000969126 seconds time elapsed The patch does provide correctness for all non-corrupting events. It does not "repatriate" the leaked counts back to the leaking counter. This is planned for a second patch series. This patch series makes this repatriation more easy by guaranteeing the sibling counter is not measuring any useful event. The patch introduces dynamic constraints for events. That means that events which did not have constraints, i.e., could be measured on any counters, may now be constrained to a subset of the counters depending on what is going on the sibling thread. The algorithm is similar to a cache coherency protocol. We call it XSU in reference to Exclusive, Shared, Unused, the 3 possible states of a PMU counter. As a consequence of the workaround, users may see an increased amount of event multiplexing, even in situtations where there are fewer events than counters measured on a CPU. Patch has been tested on all three impacted processors. Note that when HT is off, there is no corruption. However, the workaround is still enabled, yet not costing too much. Adding a dynamic detection of HT on turned out to be complex are requiring too much to code to be justified. This patch addresses the issue when PEBS is not used. A subsequent patch fixes the problem when PEBS is used.

Add support for Branch Trace Store (BTS) via kernel perf event infrastructure. The difference with the existing implementation of BTS support is that this one is a separate PMU that exports events' trace buffers to userspace by means of AUX area of the perf buffer, which is zero-copy mapped into userspace. The immediate benefit is that the buffer size can be much bigger, resulting in fewer interrupts and no kernel side copying is involved and little to no trace data loss. Also, kernel code can be traced with this driver. The old way of collecting BTS traces still works.

Even being compressed, these packets are generated at hundreds of megabytes per second per core, which makes it impractical to decode them on the fly in the kernel.

For supporting Intel LBR branches filtering, Intel LBR sharing logic mechanism is introduced from commit b36817e8 ("perf/x86: Add Intel LBR sharing logic"). It modifies __intel_shared_reg_get_constraints() to config lbr_sel, which is finally used to set LBR_SELECT. However, the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function is called after intel_pebs_constraints(). The PEBS event will return immediately after intel_pebs_constraints(). So it's impossible to filter branches for PEBS events. This patch moves intel_shared_regs_constraints() ahead of intel_pebs_constraints(). We can safely do that because the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function only returns empty constraint if its rejecting the event, otherwise it returns NULL such that we continue calling intel_pebs_constraints() and x86_get_event_constraint().

While thinking on the whole clock discussion it occurred to me we have two distinct uses of time: 1) the tracking of event/ctx/cgroup enabled/running/stopped times which includes the self-monitoring support in struct perf_event_mmap_page. 2) the actual timestamps visible in the data records. And we've been conflating them. The first is all about tracking time deltas, nobody should really care in what time base that happens, its all relative information, as long as its internally consistent it works. The second however is what people are worried about when having to merge their data with external sources. And here we have the discussion on MONOTONIC vs MONOTONIC_RAW etc.. Where MONOTONIC is good for correlating between machines (static offset), MONOTNIC_RAW is required for correlating against a fixed rate hardware clock. This means configurability; now 1) makes that hard because it needs to be internally consistent across groups of unrelated events; which is why we had to have a global perf_clock(). However, for 2) it doesn't really matter, perf itself doesn't care what it writes into the buffer. The below patch makes the distinction between these two cases by adding perf_event_clock() which is used for the second case. It further makes this configurable on a per-event basis, but adds a few sanity checks such that we cannot combine events with different clocks in confusing ways. And since we then have per-event configurability we might as well retain the 'legacy' behaviour as a default.

On Broadwell INST_RETIRED.ALL cannot be used with any period that doesn't have the lowest 6 bits cleared. And the period should not be smaller than 128. This is erratum BDM11 and BDM55: http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/specification-updates/5th-gen-core-family-spec-update.pdf BDM11: When using a period < 100; we may get incorrect PEBS/PMI interrupts and/or an invalid counter state. BDM55: When bit0-5 of the period are !0 we may get redundant PEBS records on overflow. Add a new callback to enforce this, and set it for Broadwell. How does this handle the case when an app requests a specific period with some of the bottom bits set? Short answer: Any useful instruction sampling period needs to be 4-6 orders of magnitude larger than 128, as an PMI every 128 instructions would instantly overwhelm the system and be throttled. So the +-64 error from this is really small compared to the period, much smaller than normal system jitter. Long answer (by Peterz): IFF we guarantee perf_event_attr::sample_period >= 128. Suppose we start out with sample_period=192; then we'll set period_left to 192, we'll end up with left = 128 (we truncate the lower bits). We get an interrupt, find that period_left = 64 (>0 so we return 0 and don't get an overflow handler), up that to 128. Then we trigger again, at n=256. Then we find period_left = -64 (<=0 so we return 1 and do get an overflow). We increment with sample_period so we get left = 128. We fire again, at n=384, period_left = 0 (<=0 so we return 1 and get an overflow). And on and on. So while the individual interrupts are 'wrong' we get then with interval=256,128 in exactly the right ratio to average out at 192. And this works for everything >=128. So the num_samples*fixed_period thing is still entirely correct +- 127, which is good enough I'd say, as you already have that error anyhow. So no need to 'fix' the tools, al we need to do is refuse to create INST_RETIRED:ALL events with sample_period < 128.

Reproducer signal handler: void handle_sig(int signo, siginfo_t *info, void *context) { ucontext_t *uc = context; struct user_regs_struct *regs = &(uc->uc_mcontext.regs); regs->scratch.status32 = 0; } Before the fix, kernel would go off to weeds like below: --------->8----------- [ARCLinux]$ ./signal-test Path: /signal-test CPU: 0 PID: 61 Comm: signal-test Not tainted 4.0.0-rc5+ #65 task: 8f177880 ti: 5ffe6000 task.ti: 8f15c000 [ECR ]: 0x00220200 => Invalid Write @ 0x00000010 by insn @ 0x00010698 [EFA ]: 0x00000010 [BLINK ]: 0x2007c1ee [ERET ]: 0x10698 [STAT32]: 0x00000000 : <-------- BTA: 0x00010680 SP: 0x5ffe7e48 FP: 0x00000000 LPS: 0x20003c6c LPE: 0x20003c70 LPC: 0x00000000 ... --------->8----------- Reported-by: NAlexey Brodkin <abrodkin@synopsys.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NVineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

The regfile provided to SA_SIGINFO signal handler as ucontext was off by one due to pt_regs gutter cleanups in 2013. Before handling signal, user pt_regs are copied onto user_regs_struct and copied back later. Both structs are binary compatible. This was all fine until commit 2fa91904 (ARC: pt_regs update #2) which removed the empty stack slot at top of pt_regs (corresponding to first pad) and made the corresponding fixup in struct user_regs_struct (the pad in there was moved out of @scratch - not removed altogether as it is part of ptrace ABI) struct user_regs_struct { + long pad; struct { - long pad; long bta, lp_start, lp_end,.... } scratch; ... } This meant that now user_regs_struct was off by 1 reg w.r.t pt_regs and signal code needs to user_regs_struct.scratch to reflect it as pt_regs, which is what this commit does. This problem was hidden for 2 years, because both save/restore, despite using wrong location, were using the same location. Only an interim inspection (reproducer below) exposed the issue. void handle_segv(int signo, siginfo_t *info, void *context) { ucontext_t *uc = context; struct user_regs_struct *regs = &(uc->uc_mcontext.regs); printf("regs %x %x\n", <=== prints 7 8 (vs. 8 9) regs->scratch.r8, regs->scratch.r9); } int main() { struct sigaction sa; sa.sa_sigaction = handle_segv; sa.sa_flags = SA_SIGINFO; sigemptyset(&sa.sa_mask); sigaction(SIGSEGV, &sa, NULL); asm volatile( "mov r7, 7 \n" "mov r8, 8 \n" "mov r9, 9 \n" "mov r10, 10 \n" :::"r7","r8","r9","r10"); *((unsigned int*)0x10) = 0; } Fixes: 2fa91904 "ARC: pt_regs update #2: Remove unused gutter at start of pt_regs" CC: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NVineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

Without proper regulator support for individual boards, it is dangerous to have overclocked/overvoltaged OPPs in the list. Cpufreq will increase the frequency without the accompanying voltage increase, resulting in an unstable system. Remove them for now. We can revisit them with the new version of OPP bindings, which support boost settings and frequency ranges, among other things.

this_cpu operations were implemented for arm64 in: 5284e1b4 arm64: xchg: Implement cmpxchg_double f97fc810 arm64: percpu: Implement this_cpu operations Unfortunately, it is possible for pre-emption to take place between address generation and data access. This can lead to cases where data is being manipulated by this_cpu for a different CPU than it was called on. Which effectively breaks the spec. This patch disables pre-emption for the this_cpu operations guaranteeing that address generation and data manipulation take place without a pre-emption in-between.

Firstly, handle zero length calls properly. Believe it or not there are a few of these happening during early boot. Next, we can't just drop to a memcpy() call in the forward copy case where dst <= src. The reason is that the cache initializing stores used in the Niagara memcpy() implementations can end up clearing out cache lines before we've sourced their original contents completely. For example, considering NG4memcpy, the main unrolled loop begins like this: load src + 0x00 load src + 0x08 load src + 0x10 load src + 0x18 load src + 0x20 store dst + 0x00 Assume dst is 64 byte aligned and let's say that dst is src - 8 for this memcpy() call. That store at the end there is the one to the first line in the cache line, thus clearing the whole line, which thus clobbers "src + 0x28" before it even gets loaded. To avoid this, just fall through to a simple copy only mildly optimized for the case where src and dst are 8 byte aligned and the length is a multiple of 8 as well. We could get fancy and call GENmemcpy() but this is good enough for how this thing is actually used.

When ioremap_wc() or ioremap_cached() are used without first including asm/pgtable.h, the _PAGE_CACHEABLE or _PAGE_WR_COMBINE definitions aren't found, resulting in build errors like the following (in next-20150323 due to "lib: devres: add a helper function for ioremap_wc"): lib/devres.c: In function ‘devm_ioremap_wc’: lib/devres.c:91: error: ‘_PAGE_WR_COMBINE’ undeclared We can't easily include asm/pgtable.h in asm/io.h due to dependency problems, so split out the _PAGE_* definitions from asm/pgtable.h into a separate asm/pgtable-bits.h header (as a couple of other architectures already do), and include that in io.h instead.

Make the code which sets up the pmd depend on PT_NLEVELS == 3, not on CONFIG_64BIT. The reason is, that a 64bit kernel with a page size greater than 4k doesn't need the pmd and thus has PT_NLEVELS = 2. Signed-off-by: NHelge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

The patch dc6c9a35 that counts pmds allocated for a process introduced a bug on 64-bit PA-RISC kernels. The PA-RISC architecture preallocates one pmd with each pgd. This preallocated pmd can never be freed - pmd_free does nothing when it is called with this pmd. When the kernel attempts to free this preallocated pmd, it decreases the count of allocated pmds. The result is that the counter underflows and this error is reported. This patch fixes the bug by artifically incrementing the counter in pmd_free when the kernel tries to free the preallocated pmd.

commit id 2ba9f0d8 has changed CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV to tristate to allow HV/PR bits to be built as modules. But the MCE code still depends on CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV which is wrong. When user selects CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV=m to build HV/PR bits as a separate module the relevant MCE code gets excluded. This patch fixes the MCE code to use CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HANDLER. This makes sure that the relevant MCE code is included when HV/PR bits are built as a separate modules.
