Usually, pmus that do, for example, instruction tracing, would only ever
be able to have one event per task per cpu (or per perf_event_context). For
such pmus it makes sense to disallow creating conflicting events early on,
so as to provide consistent behavior for the user.

This patch adds a pmu capability that indicates such constraint on event
creation.

This patch introduces "AUX space" in the perf mmap buffer, intended for
exporting high bandwidth data streams to userspace, such as instruction
flow traces.

AUX space is a ring buffer, defined by aux_{offset,size} fields in the
user_page structure, and read/write pointers aux_{head,tail}, which abide
by the same rules as data_* counterparts of the main perf buffer.

In order to allocate/mmap AUX, userspace needs to set up aux_offset to
such an offset that will be greater than data_offset+data_size and
aux_size to be the desired buffer size. Both need to be page aligned.
Then, same aux_offset and aux_size should be passed to mmap() call and
if everything adds up, you should have an AUX buffer as a result.

Pages that are mapped into this buffer also come out of user's mlock
rlimit plus perf_event_mlock_kb allowance.

Currently, the actual perf ring buffer is one page into the mmap area,
following the user page and the userspace follows this convention. This
patch adds data_{offset,size} fields to user_page that can be used by
userspace instead for locating perf data in the mmap area. This is also
helpful when mapping existing or shared buffers if their size is not
known in advance.

Right now, it is made to follow the existing convention that

	data_offset == PAGE_SIZE and
	data_offset + data_size == mmap_size.

BPF programs, attached to kprobes, provide a safe way to execute
user-defined BPF byte-code programs without being able to crash or
hang the kernel in any way. The BPF engine makes sure that such
programs have a finite execution time and that they cannot break
out of their sandbox.

The user interface is to attach to a kprobe via the perf syscall:

	struct perf_event_attr attr = {
		.type	= PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT,
		.config	= event_id,
		...
	};

	event_fd = perf_event_open(&attr,...);
	ioctl(event_fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF, prog_fd);

'prog_fd' is a file descriptor associated with BPF program
previously loaded.

'event_id' is an ID of the kprobe created.

Closing 'event_fd':

	close(event_fd);

... automatically detaches BPF program from it.

BPF programs can call in-kernel helper functions to:

  - lookup/update/delete elements in maps

  - probe_read - wraper of probe_kernel_read() used to access any
    kernel data structures

BPF programs receive 'struct pt_regs *' as an input ('struct pt_regs' is
architecture dependent) and return 0 to ignore the event and 1 to store
kprobe event into the ring buffer.

Note, kprobes are a fundamentally _not_ a stable kernel ABI,
so BPF programs attached to kprobes must be recompiled for
every kernel version and user must supply correct LINUX_VERSION_CODE
in attr.kern_version during bpf_prog_load() call.

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.

Which is caused by an irq_work generating new irq_work and therefore
not allowing forward progress.

This happens because processing the perf irq_work triggers another
perf event (tracepoint stuff) which in turn generates an irq_work ad
infinitum.

Avoid this by raising the recursion counter in the irq_work -- which
effectively disables all software events (including tracepoints) from
actually triggering again.

changed the locking logic in put_event() by replacing mutex_lock_nested()
with perf_event_ctx_lock_nested(), but didn't fix the subsequent
mutex_unlock() with a correct counterpart, perf_event_ctx_unlock().

Contexts are thus leaked as a result of incremented refcount

Add support for task events as well as system-wide events. This change
has a big impact on the way that we gather LLC occupancy values in
intel_cqm_event_read().

Currently, for system-wide (per-cpu) events we defer processing to
userspace which knows how to discard all but one cpu result per package.

Things aren't so simple for task events because we need to do the value
aggregation ourselves. To do this, we defer updating the LLC occupancy
value in event->count from intel_cqm_event_read() and do an SMP
cross-call to read values for all packages in intel_cqm_event_count().
We need to ensure that we only do this for one task event per cache
group, otherwise we'll report duplicate values.

If we're a system-wide event we want to fallback to the default
perf_event_count() implementation. Refactor this into a common function
so that we don't duplicate the code.

Also, introduce PERF_TYPE_INTEL_CQM, since we need a way to track an
event's task (if the event isn't per-cpu) inside of the Intel CQM PMU
driver.  This task information is only availble in the upper layers of
the perf infrastructure.

Other perf backends stash the target task in event->hw.*target so we
need to do something similar. The task is used to determine whether
events should share a cache group and an RMID.

For PMU drivers that record per-package counters, the ->count variable
cannot be used to record an accurate aggregated value, since it's not
possible to perform SMP cross-calls to cpus on other packages from the
context in which we update ->count.

Introduce a new optional ->count() accessor function that can be used to
customize how values are collected. If a PMU driver doesn't provide a
->count() function, we fallback to the existing code.

There is necessarily a window of staleness with this approach because
the task that generated the counter value may not have been scheduled by
the cpu recently.

An alternative and more complex approach would be to use a hrtimer to
periodically refresh the values from a more permissive scheduling
context. So, we're trading off complexity for accuracy.

The callback is invoked when process is scheduled in or out.
It provides mechanism for later patches to save/store the LBR
stack. For the schedule in case, the callback is invoked at

So it also can replace the flush branch stack callback. To
avoid unnecessary overhead, the callback is enabled only when

For hardware events, the userspace page of the event gets updated in
context switches, so if we read the timestamp in the page, we get
fresh info.

For software events, this is missing currently. This patch makes the
behavior consistent.

With this patch, we can implement clock_gettime(THREAD_CPUTIME) with
PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY in userspace as suggested by Andy and Peter. Code
like this:

  if (pc->cap_user_time) {
	do {
		seq = pc->lock;
		barrier();

		running = pc->time_running;
		cyc = rdtsc();
		time_mult = pc->time_mult;
		time_shift = pc->time_shift;
		time_offset = pc->time_offset;

		barrier();
	} while (pc->lock != seq);

	quot = (cyc >> time_shift);
	rem = cyc & ((1 << time_shift) - 1);
	delta = time_offset + quot * time_mult +
		((rem * time_mult) >> time_shift);

	running += delta;
	return running;
  }

I tried it on a busy system, the userspace page updating doesn't
have noticeable overhead.

The function is_power_of_2() also do the check on nr_pages, so the first
check performed is unnecessary. On the other hand, the key point is to
ensure @nr_pages is a power-of-two number and mostly @nr_pages is a
nonzero value, so in the most cases, the function is_power_of_2() will
be called.

Currently the adjusments made as part of perf_event_task_tick() use the
percpu rotation lists to iterate over any active PMU contexts, but these
are not used by the context rotation code, having been replaced by
separate (per-context) hrtimer callbacks. However, some manipulation of
the rotation lists (i.e. removal of contexts) has remained in
perf_rotate_context(). This leads to the following issues:

* Contexts are not always removed from the rotation lists. Removal of
  PMUs which have been placed in rotation lists, but have not been
  removed by a hrtimer callback can result in corruption of the rotation
  lists (when memory backing the context is freed).

  This has been observed to result in hangs when PMU drivers built as
  modules are inserted and removed around the creation of events for
  said PMUs.

* Contexts which do not require rotation may be removed from the
  rotation lists as a result of a hrtimer, and will not be considered by
  the unthrottling code in perf_event_task_tick.

This patch fixes the issue by updating the rotation ist when events are
scheduled in/out, ensuring that each rotation list stays in sync with
the HW state. As each event holds a refcount on the module of its PMU,
this ensures that when a PMU module is unloaded none of its CPU contexts
can be in a rotation list. By maintaining a list of perf_event_contexts
rather than perf_event_cpu_contexts, we don't need separate paths to
handle the cpu and task contexts, which also makes the code a little
simpler.

As the rotation_list variables are not used for rotation, these are
renamed to active_ctx_list, which better matches their current function.
perf_pmu_rotate_{start,stop} are renamed to
perf_pmu_ctx_{activate,deactivate}.

When initialising an event, perf_init_event will call try_module_get() to
ensure that the PMU's module cannot be removed for the lifetime of the
event, with __free_event() dropping the reference when the event is
finally destroyed. If something fails after the event has been
initialised, but before the event is installed, perf_event_alloc will
drop the reference on the module.

However, if we fail to initialise an event for some reason (e.g. we ask
an uncore PMU to perform sampling, and it refuses to initialise the
event), we do not drop the refcount. If we try to open such a bogus
event without a precise IDR type, we will loop over each PMU in the pmus
list, incrementing each of their refcounts without decrementing them.

This patch adds a module_put when pmu->event_init(event) fails, ensuring
that the refcounts are balanced in failure cases. As the innards of the
precise and search based initialisation look very similar, this logic is
hoisted out into a new helper function. While the early return for the
failed try_module_get is removed from the search case, this is handled
by the remaining return when ret is not -ENOENT.

So what I suspect; but I'm in zombie mode today it seems; is that while
I initially thought that it was impossible for ctx to change when
refcount dropped to 0, I now suspect its possible.

Note that until perf_remove_from_context() the event is still active and
visible on the lists. So a concurrent sys_perf_event_open() from another
task into this task can race.

I think the below should cure this; if we install a group leader it
will iterate the (still intact) group list and find its siblings and
try and install those too -- even though those still have the old
event->ctx -- in the new ctx.

Upon installing the first group sibling we'd try and schedule out the
group and trigger the above warn.

Fix this by installing the group leader last, installing siblings
would have no effect, they're not reachable through the group lists
and therefore we don't schedule them.

Also delay resetting the state until we're absolutely sure the events
are quiescent.

The fix from 9fc81d87 ("perf: Fix events installation during
moving group") was incomplete in that it failed to recognise that
creating a group with events for different CPUs is semantically
broken -- they cannot be co-scheduled.

Furthermore, it leads to real breakage where, when we create an event
for CPU Y and then migrate it to form a group on CPU X, the code gets
confused where the counter is programmed -- triggered in practice
as well by me via the perf fuzzer.

Fix this by tightening the rules for creating groups. Only allow
grouping of counters that can be co-scheduled in the same context.
This means for the same task and/or the same cpu.

Both Linus (most recent) and Steve (a while ago) reported that perf
related callbacks have massive stack bloat.

The problem is that software events need a pt_regs in order to
properly report the event location and unwind stack. And because we
could not assume one was present we allocated one on stack and filled
it with minimal bits required for operation.

Now, pt_regs is quite large, so this is undesirable. Furthermore it
turns out that most sites actually have a pt_regs pointer available,
making this even more onerous, as the stack space is pointless waste.

This patch addresses the problem by observing that software events
have well defined nesting semantics, therefore we can use static
per-cpu storage instead of on-stack.

Linus made the further observation that all but the scheduler callers
of perf_sw_event() have a pt_regs available, so we change the regular
perf_sw_event() to require a valid pt_regs (where it used to be
optional) and add perf_sw_event_sched() for the scheduler.

We have a scheduler specific call instead of a more generic _noregs()
like construct because we can assume non-recursion from the scheduler
and thereby simplify the code further (_noregs would have to put the
recursion context call inline in order to assertain which __perf_regs
element to use).

One last note on the implementation of perf_trace_buf_prepare(); we
allow .regs = NULL for those cases where we already have a pt_regs
pointer available and do not need another.

On x86_64, at least, task_pt_regs may be only partially initialized
in many contexts, so x86_64 should not use it without extra care
from interrupt context, let alone NMI context.

This will allow x86_64 to override the logic and will supply some
scratch space to use to make a cleaner copy of user regs.

We allow PMU driver to change the cpu on which the event
should be installed to. This happened in patch:

  e2d37cd2 ("perf: Allow the PMU driver to choose the CPU on which to install events")

This patch also forces all the group members to follow
the currently opened events cpu if the group happened
to be moved.

This and the change of event->cpu in perf_install_in_context()
function introduced in:

  0cda4c02 ("perf: Introduce perf_pmu_migrate_context()")

forces group members to change their event->cpu,
if the currently-opened-event's PMU changed the cpu
and there is a group move.

Above behaviour causes problem for breakpoint events,
which uses event->cpu to touch cpu specific data for
breakpoints accounting. By changing event->cpu, some
breakpoints slots were wrongly accounted for given
cpu.

Vinces's perf fuzzer hit this issue and caused following
WARN on my setup:

   WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 20214 at arch/x86/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c:119 arch_install_hw_breakpoint+0x142/0x150()

When a CPU hotplugged out, we call perf_remove_from_context() (via
perf_event_exit_cpu()) to rip each CPU-bound event out of its PMU's cpu
context, but leave siblings grouped together. Freeing of these events is
left to the mercy of the usual refcounting.

When a CPU-bound event's refcount drops to zero we cross-call to
__perf_remove_from_context() to clean it up, detaching grouped siblings.

This works when the relevant CPU is online, but will fail if the CPU is
currently offline, and we won't detach the event from its siblings
before freeing the event, leaving the sibling list corrupt. If the
sibling list is later walked (e.g. because the CPU cam online again
before a remaining sibling's refcount drops to zero), we will walk the
now corrupted siblings list, potentially dereferencing garbage values.

Given that the events should never be scheduled again (as we removed
them from their context), we can simply detatch siblings when the CPU
goes down in the first place. If the CPU comes back online, the
redundant call to __perf_remove_from_context() is safe.
