           - Allow specifying events via -e in 'perf mem record', also listing
             what events can be specified via 'perf mem record -e list' (Jiri
             Olsa)
      
        perf record:
      
           - Add 'perf record' --all-user/--all-kernel options, so that one
             can tell that all the events in the command line should be
             restricted to the user or kernel levels (Jiri Olsa), i.e.:
      
               perf record -e cycles:u,instructions:u
      
             is equivalent to:
      
               perf record --all-user -e cycles,instructions
      
           - Make 'perf record' collect CPU cache info in the perf.data file header:
      
               $ perf record usleep 1
               [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
               [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (7 samples) ]
               $ perf report --header-only -I | tail -10 | head -8
               # CPU cache info:
               #  L1 Data                 32K [0-1]
               #  L1 Instruction          32K [0-1]
               #  L1 Data                 32K [2-3]
               #  L1 Instruction          32K [2-3]
               #  L2 Unified             256K [0-1]
               #  L2 Unified             256K [2-3]
               #  L3 Unified            4096K [0-3]
      
             Will be used in 'perf c2c' and eventually in 'perf diff' to
             allow, for instance running the same workload in multiple
             machines and then when using 'diff' show the hardware difference.

             ELF files stored in ~/.debug and keyed with build-ids, to allow

           - Handle empty print fmts in 'perf script -s' i.e. when running
             python or perl scripts (Taeung Song)
      
        perf stat:
      
           - 'perf stat' now shows shadow metrics (insn per cycle, etc) in
             interval mode too.  E.g:

      x86/efi: Fix boot crash by always mapping boot service regions into new EFI page tables · 452308de
      Matt Fleming 提交于
      Some machines have EFI regions in page zero (physical address
      0x00000000) and historically that region has been added to the e820
      map via trim_bios_range(), and ultimately mapped into the kernel page
      tables. It was not mapped via efi_map_regions() as one would expect.
      
      Alexis reports that with the new separate EFI page tables some boot
      services regions, such as page zero, are not mapped. This triggers an
      oops during the SetVirtualAddressMap() runtime call.
      
      For the EFI boot services quirk on x86 we need to memblock_reserve()
      boot services regions until after SetVirtualAddressMap(). Doing that
      while respecting the ownership of regions that may have already been
      reserved by the kernel was the motivation behind this commit:
      
        7d68dc3f ("x86, efi: Do not reserve boot services regions within reserved areas")
      
      That patch was merged at a time when the EFI runtime virtual mappings
      were inserted into the kernel page tables as described above, and the
      trick of setting ->numpages (and hence the region size) to zero to
      track regions that should not be freed in efi_free_boot_services()
      meant that we never mapped those regions in efi_map_regions(). Instead
      we were relying solely on the existing kernel mappings.
      
      Now that we have separate page tables we need to make sure the EFI
      boot services regions are mapped correctly, even if someone else has
      already called memblock_reserve(). Instead of stashing a tag in
      ->numpages, set the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME bit of ->attribute. Since it
      generally makes no sense to mark a boot services region as required at
      runtime, it's pretty much guaranteed the firmware will not have
      already set this bit.
      
      For the record, the specific circumstances under which Alexis
      triggered this bug was that an EFI runtime driver on his machine was
      responding to the EVT_SIGNAL_VIRTUAL_ADDRESS_CHANGE event during
      SetVirtualAddressMap().
      
      The event handler for this driver looks like this,
      
        sub rsp,0x28
        lea rdx,[rip+0x2445] # 0xaa948720
        mov ecx,0x4
        call func_aa9447c0  ; call to ConvertPointer(4, & 0xaa948720)
        mov r11,QWORD PTR [rip+0x2434] # 0xaa948720
        xor eax,eax
        mov BYTE PTR [r11+0x1],0x1
        add rsp,0x28
        ret
      
      Which is pretty typical code for an EVT_SIGNAL_VIRTUAL_ADDRESS_CHANGE
      handler. The "mov r11, QWORD PTR [rip+0x2424]" was the faulting
      instruction because ConvertPointer() was being called to convert the
      address 0x0000000000000000, which when converted is left unchanged and
      remains 0x0000000000000000.
      
      The output of the oops trace gave the impression of a standard NULL
      pointer dereference bug, but because we're accessing physical
      addresses during ConvertPointer(), it wasn't. EFI boot services code
      is stored at that address on Alexis' machine.

      x86/fpu: Fix eager-FPU handling on legacy FPU machines · 6e686709
      Borislav Petkov 提交于
      i486 derived cores like Intel Quark support only the very old,
      legacy x87 FPU (FSAVE/FRSTOR, CPUID bit FXSR is not set), and
      our FPU code wasn't handling the saving and restoring there
      properly in the 'eagerfpu' case.
      
      So after we made eagerfpu the default for all CPU types:
      
        58122bf1 x86/fpu: Default eagerfpu=on on all CPUs
      
      these old FPU designs broke. First, Andy Shevchenko reported a splat:
      
        WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 823 at arch/x86/include/asm/fpu/internal.h:163 fpu__clear+0x8c/0x160
      
      which was us trying to execute FXRSTOR on those machines even though
      they don't support it.
      
      After taking care of that, Bryan O'Donoghue reported that a simple FPU
      test still failed because we weren't initializing the FPU state properly
      on those machines.
      
      Take care of all that.

      ARM: mvebu: fix overlap of Crypto SRAM with PCIe memory window · d7d5a43c
      Thomas Petazzoni 提交于
      When the Crypto SRAM mappings were added to the Device Tree files
      describing the Armada XP boards in commit c466d997 ("ARM: mvebu:
      define crypto SRAM ranges for all armada-xp boards"), the fact that
      those mappings were overlaping with the PCIe memory aperture was
      overlooked. Due to this, we currently have for all Armada XP platforms
      a situation that looks like this:
      
      Memory mapping on Armada XP boards with internal registers at
      0xf1000000:
      
       - 0x00000000 -> 0xf0000000	3.75G 	RAM
       - 0xf0000000 -> 0xf1000000	16M	NOR flashes (AXP GP / AXP DB)
       - 0xf1000000 -> 0xf1100000	1M	internal registers
       - 0xf8000000 -> 0xffe0000	126M	PCIe memory aperture
       - 0xf8100000 -> 0xf8110000	64KB	Crypto SRAM #0	=> OVERLAPS WITH PCIE !
       - 0xf8110000 -> 0xf8120000	64KB	Crypto SRAM #1	=> OVERLAPS WITH PCIE !
       - 0xffe00000 -> 0xfff00000	1M	PCIe I/O aperture
       - 0xfff0000  -> 0xffffffff	1M	BootROM
      
      The overlap means that when PCIe devices are added, depending on their
      memory window needs, they might or might not be mapped into the
      physical address space. Indeed, they will not be mapped if the area
      allocated in the PCIe memory aperture by the PCI core overlaps with
      one of the Crypto SRAM. Typically, a Intel IGB PCIe NIC that needs 8MB
      of PCIe memory will see its PCIe memory window allocated from
      0xf80000000 for 8MB, which overlaps with the Crypto SRAM windows. Due
      to this, the PCIe window is not created, and any attempt to access the
      PCIe window makes the kernel explode:
      
      [    3.302213] igb: Copyright (c) 2007-2014 Intel Corporation.
      [    3.307841] pci 0000:00:09.0: enabling device (0140 -> 0143)
      [    3.313539] mvebu_mbus: cannot add window '4:f8', conflicts with another window
      [    3.320870] mvebu-pcie soc:pcie-controller: Could not create MBus window at [mem 0xf8000000-0xf87fffff]: -22
      [    3.330811] Unhandled fault: external abort on non-linefetch (0x1008) at 0xf08c0018
      
      This problem does not occur on Armada 370 boards, because we use the
      following memory mapping (for boards that have internal registers at
      0xf1000000):
      
       - 0x00000000 -> 0xf0000000	3.75G 	RAM
       - 0xf0000000 -> 0xf1000000	16M	NOR flashes (AXP GP / AXP DB)
       - 0xf1000000 -> 0xf1100000	1M	internal registers
       - 0xf1100000 -> 0xf1110000	64KB	Crypto SRAM #0 => OK !
       - 0xf8000000 -> 0xffe0000	126M	PCIe memory
       - 0xffe00000 -> 0xfff00000	1M	PCIe I/O
       - 0xfff0000  -> 0xffffffff	1M	BootROM
      
      Obviously, the solution is to align the location of the Crypto SRAM
      mappings of Armada XP to be similar with the ones on Armada 370, i.e
      have them between the "internal registers" area and the beginning of
      the PCIe aperture.
      
      However, we have a special case with the OpenBlocks AX3-4 platform,
      which has a 128 MB NOR flash. Currently, this NOR flash is mapped from
      0xf0000000 to 0xf8000000. This is possible because on OpenBlocks
      AX3-4, the internal registers are not at 0xf1000000. And this explains
      why the Crypto SRAM mappings were not configured at the same place on
      Armada XP.
      
      Hence, the solution is two-fold:
      
       (1) Move the NOR flash mapping on Armada XP OpenBlocks AX3-4 from
           0xe8000000 to 0xf0000000. This frees the 0xf0000000 ->
           0xf80000000 space.
      
       (2) Move the Crypto SRAM mappings on Armada XP to be similar to
           Armada 370 (except of course that Armada XP has two Crypto SRAM
           and not one).
      
      After this patch, the memory mapping on Armada XP boards with
      registers at 0xf1 is:
      
       - 0x00000000 -> 0xf0000000	3.75G 	RAM
       - 0xf0000000 -> 0xf1000000	16M	NOR flashes (AXP GP / AXP DB)
       - 0xf1000000 -> 0xf1100000	1M	internal registers
       - 0xf1100000 -> 0xf1110000	64KB	Crypto SRAM #0
       - 0xf1110000 -> 0xf1120000	64KB	Crypto SRAM #1
       - 0xf8000000 -> 0xffe0000	126M	PCIe memory
       - 0xffe00000 -> 0xfff00000	1M	PCIe I/O
       - 0xfff0000  -> 0xffffffff	1M	BootROM
      
      And the memory mapping for the special case of the OpenBlocks AX3-4
      (internal registers at 0xd0000000, NOR of 128 MB):
      
       - 0x00000000 -> 0xc0000000	3G 	RAM
       - 0xd0000000 -> 0xd1000000	1M	internal registers
       - 0xe800000  -> 0xf0000000	128M	NOR flash
       - 0xf1100000 -> 0xf1110000	64KB	Crypto SRAM #0
       - 0xf1110000 -> 0xf1120000	64KB	Crypto SRAM #1
       - 0xf8000000 -> 0xffe0000	126M	PCIe memory
       - 0xffe00000 -> 0xfff00000	1M	PCIe I/O
       - 0xfff0000  -> 0xffffffff	1M	BootROM

        recommended (and only!) safe way to migrate a filesystem between

      x86/mm/32: Enable full randomization on i386 and X86_32 · 8b8addf8
      Hector Marco-Gisbert 提交于
      Currently on i386 and on X86_64 when emulating X86_32 in legacy mode, only
      the stack and the executable are randomized but not other mmapped files
      (libraries, vDSO, etc.). This patch enables randomization for the
      libraries, vDSO and mmap requests on i386 and in X86_32 in legacy mode.
      
      By default on i386 there are 8 bits for the randomization of the libraries,
      vDSO and mmaps which only uses 1MB of VA.
      
      This patch preserves the original randomness, using 1MB of VA out of 3GB or
      4GB. We think that 1MB out of 3GB is not a big cost for having the ASLR.
      
      The first obvious security benefit is that all objects are randomized (not
      only the stack and the executable) in legacy mode which highly increases
      the ASLR effectiveness, otherwise the attackers may use these
      non-randomized areas. But also sensitive setuid/setgid applications are
      more secure because currently, attackers can disable the randomization of
      these applications by setting the ulimit stack to "unlimited". This is a
      very old and widely known trick to disable the ASLR in i386 which has been
      allowed for too long.
      
      Another trick used to disable the ASLR was to set the ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE
      personality flag, but fortunately this doesn't work on setuid/setgid
      applications because there is security checks which clear Security-relevant
      flags.
      
      This patch always randomizes the mmap_legacy_base address, removing the
      possibility to disable the ASLR by setting the stack to "unlimited".
