Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Kernel side changes:
- Improve accuracy of perf/sched clock on x86. (Adrian Hunter)
- Intel DS and BTS updates. (Alexander Shishkin)
- Intel cstate PMU support. (Kan Liang)
- Add group read support to perf_event_read(). (Peter Zijlstra)
- Branch call hardware sampling support, implemented on x86 and
PowerPC. (Stephane Eranian)
- Event groups transactional interface enhancements. (Sukadev
Bhattiprolu)
- Enable proper x86/intel/uncore PMU support on multi-segment PCI
systems. (Taku Izumi)
- ... misc fixes and cleanups.
The perf tooling team was very busy again with 200+ commits, the full
diff doesn't fit into lkml size limits. Here's an (incomplete) list
of the tooling highlights:
New features:
- Change the default event used in all tools (record/top): use the
most precise "cycles" hw counter available, i.e. when the user
doesn't specify any event, it will try using cycles:ppp, cycles:pp,
etc and fall back transparently until it finds a working counter.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Integration of perf with eBPF that, given an eBPF .c source file
(or .o file built for the 'bpf' target with clang), will get it
automatically built, validated and loaded into the kernel via the
sys_bpf syscall, which can then be used and seen using 'perf trace'
and other tools.
(Wang Nan)
Various user interface improvements:
- Automatic pager invocation on long help output. (Namhyung Kim)
- Search for more options when passing args to -h, e.g.: (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
$ perf report -h interface
Usage: perf report [<options>]
--gtk Use the GTK2 interface
--stdio Use the stdio interface
--tui Use the TUI interface
- Show ordered command line options when -h is used or when an
unknown option is specified. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- If options are passed after -h, show just its descriptions, not all
options. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Implement column based horizontal scrolling in the hists browser
(top, report), making it possible to use the TUI for things like
'perf mem report' where there are many more columns than can fit in
a terminal. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Enhance the error reporting of tracepoint event parsing, e.g.:
$ oldperf record -e sched:sched_switc usleep 1
event syntax error: 'sched:sched_switc'
\___ unknown tracepoint
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
Now we get the much nicer:
$ perf record -e sched:sched_switc ls
event syntax error: 'sched:sched_switc'
\___ can't access trace events
Error: No permissions to read /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switc
Hint: Try 'sudo mount -o remount,mode=755 /sys/kernel/debug'
And after we have those mount point permissions fixed:
$ perf record -e sched:sched_switc ls
event syntax error: 'sched:sched_switc'
\___ unknown tracepoint
Error: File /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switc not found.
Hint: Perhaps this kernel misses some CONFIG_ setting to enable this feature?.
I.e. basically now the event parsing routing uses the strerror_open()
routines introduced by and used in 'perf trace' work. (Jiri Olsa)
- Fail properly when pattern matching fails to find a tracepoint,
i.e. '-e non:existent' was being correctly handled, with a proper
error message about that not being a valid event, but '-e
non:existent*' wasn't, fix it. (Jiri Olsa)
- Do event name substring search as last resort in 'perf list'.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
E.g.:
# perf list clock
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
cpu-clock [Software event]
task-clock [Software event]
uncore_cbox_0/clockticks/ [Kernel PMU event]
uncore_cbox_1/clockticks/ [Kernel PMU event]
kvm:kvm_pvclock_update [Tracepoint event]
kvm:kvm_update_master_clock [Tracepoint event]
power:clock_disable [Tracepoint event]
power:clock_enable [Tracepoint event]
power:clock_set_rate [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_enter_clock_adjtime [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_enter_clock_getres [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_enter_clock_gettime [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_enter_clock_nanosleep [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_enter_clock_settime [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_exit_clock_adjtime [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_exit_clock_getres [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_exit_clock_gettime [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_exit_clock_nanosleep [Tracepoint event]
syscalls:sys_exit_clock_settime [Tracepoint event]
Intel PT hardware tracing enhancements:
- Accept a zero --itrace period, meaning "as often as possible". In
the case of Intel PT that is the same as a period of 1 and a unit
of 'instructions' (i.e. --itrace=i1i). (Adrian Hunter)
- Harmonize itrace's synthesized callchains with the existing
--max-stack tool option. (Adrian Hunter)
- Allow time to be displayed in nanoseconds in 'perf script'.
(Adrian Hunter)
- Fix potential infinite loop when handling Intel PT timestamps.
(Adrian Hunter)
- Slighly improve Intel PT debug logging. (Adrian Hunter)
- Warn when AUX data has been lost, just like when processing
PERF_RECORD_LOST. (Adrian Hunter)
- Further document export-to-postgresql.py script. (Adrian Hunter)
- Add option to synthesize branch stack from auxtrace data. (Adrian
Hunter)
Misc notable changes:
- Switch the default callchain output mode to 'graph,0.5,caller', to
make it look like the default for other tools, reducing the
learning curve for people used to 'caller' based viewing. (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
- various call chain usability enhancements. (Namhyung Kim)
- Introduce the 'P' event modifier, meaning 'max precision level,
please', i.e.:
$ perf record -e cycles:P usleep 1
Is now similar to:
$ perf record usleep 1
Useful, for instance, when specifying multiple events. (Jiri Olsa)
- Add 'socket' sort entry, to sort by the processor socket in 'perf
top' and 'perf report'. (Kan Liang)
- Introduce --socket-filter to 'perf report', for filtering by
processor socket. (Kan Liang)
- Add new "Zoom into Processor Socket" operation in the perf hists
browser, used in 'perf top' and 'perf report'. (Kan Liang)
- Allow probing on kmodules without DWARF. (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Fix 'perf probe -l' for probes added to kernel module functions.
(Masami Hiramatsu)
- Preparatory work for the 'perf stat record' feature that will allow
generating perf.data files with counting data in addition to the
sampling mode we have now (Jiri Olsa)
- Update libtraceevent KVM plugin. (Paolo Bonzini)
- ... plus lots of other enhancements that I failed to list properly,

This seems to be a mis-reading of how alpha memory ordering works, and
is not backed up by the alpha architecture manual. The helper functions
don't do anything special on any other architectures, and the arguments
that support them being safe on other architectures also argue that they
are safe on alpha.
Basically, the "control dependency" is between a previous read and a
subsequent write that is dependent on the value read. Even if the
subsequent write is actually done speculatively, there is no way that
such a speculative write could be made visible to other cpu's until it
has been committed, which requires validating the speculation.
Note that most weakely ordered architectures (very much including alpha)
do not guarantee any ordering relationship between two loads that depend
on each other on a control dependency:
read A
if (val == 1)
read B
because the conditional may be predicted, and the "read B" may be
speculatively moved up to before reading the value A. So we require the
user to insert a smp_rmb() between the two accesses to be correct:
read A;
if (A == 1)
smp_rmb()
read B
Alpha is further special in that it can break that ordering even if the
*address* of B depends on the read of A, because the cacheline that is
read later may be stale unless you have a memory barrier in between the
pointer read and the read of the value behind a pointer:
read ptr
read offset(ptr)
whereas all other weakly ordered architectures guarantee that the data
dependency (as opposed to just a control dependency) will order the two
accesses. As a result, alpha needs a "smp_read_barrier_depends()" in
between those two reads for them to be ordered.
The coontrol dependency that "READ_ONCE_CTRL()" and "atomic_read_ctrl()"
had was a control dependency to a subsequent *write*, however, and
nobody can finalize such a subsequent write without having actually done
the read. And were you to write such a value to a "stale" cacheline
(the way the unordered reads came to be), that would seem to lose the
write entirely.
So the things that make alpha able to re-order reads even more
aggressively than other weak architectures do not seem to be relevant
for a subsequent write. Alpha memory ordering may be strange, but
there's no real indication that it is *that* strange.
Also, the alpha architecture reference manual very explicitly talks
about the definition of "Dependence Constraints" in section 5.6.1.7,
where a preceding read dominates a subsequent write.
Such a dependence constraint admittedly does not impose a BEFORE (alpha
architecture term for globally visible ordering), but it does guarantee
that there can be no "causal loop". I don't see how you could avoid
such a loop if another cpu could see the stored value and then impact
the value of the first read. Put another way: the read and the write
could not be seen as being out of order wrt other cpus.
So I do not see how these "x_ctrl()" functions can currently be necessary.
I may have to eat my words at some point, but in the absense of clear
proof that alpha actually needs this, or indeed even an explanation of
how alpha could _possibly_ need it, I do not believe these functions are
called for.
And if it turns out that alpha really _does_ need a barrier for this
case, that barrier still should not be "smp_read_barrier_depends()".
We'd have to make up some new speciality barrier just for alpha, along
with the documentation for why it really is necessary.

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"In this ARM merge, we remove more lines than we add. Changes include:
- Enable imprecise aborts early, so that bus errors aren't masked
until later in the boot. This has the side effect that boot
loaders which provoke these aborts can cause the kernel to crash
early in boot, so we install a handler to report this event around
the site where these are enabled.
- Remove the buggy but impossible to enable cmpxchg syscall code.
- Add unwinding annotations to some assembly code.
- Add support for atomic half-word exchange for ARMv6k+.
- Reduce ioremap() alignment for SMP/LPAE cases where we don't need
the large alignment.
- Addition of an "optimal" 3G configuration for systems with 1G of
RAM.
- Increase vmalloc space by 128M.
- Constify some SMP operations structures, which have never been
writable.
- Improve ARMs dma_mmap() support for mapping DMA coherent mappings
into userspace.

The commit b44754d8262d3aab8 ("ring_buffer: Allow to exit the ring
buffer benchmark immediately") added a hack into ring_buffer_producer()
that set @kill_test when kthread_should_stop() returned true. It improved
the situation a lot. It stopped the kthread in most cases because
the producer spent most of the time in the patched while cycle.
But there are still few possible races when kthread_should_stop()
is set outside of the cycle. Then we do not set @kill_test and
some other checks pass.
This patch adds a better fix. It renames @test_kill/TEST_KILL() into
a better descriptive @test_error/TEST_ERROR(). Also it introduces
break_test() function that checks for both @test_error and
kthread_should_stop().
The new function is used in the producer when the check for @test_error
is not enough. It is not used in the consumer because its state
is manipulated by the producer via the "reader_finish" variable.
Also we add a missing check into ring_buffer_producer_thread()
between setting TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and calling schedule_timeout().
Otherwise, we might miss a wakeup from kthread_stop().

It seems that complete(&read_done) might be called too early
in some situations.
1st scenario:
-------------
CPU0 CPU1
ring_buffer_producer_thread()
wake_up_process(consumer);
wait_for_completion(&read_start);
ring_buffer_consumer_thread()
complete(&read_start);
ring_buffer_producer()
# producing data in
# the do-while cycle
ring_buffer_consumer();
# reading data
# got error
# set kill_test = 1;
set_current_state(
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
if (reader_finish) # false
schedule();
# producer still in the middle of
# do-while cycle
if (consumer && !(cnt % wakeup_interval))
wake_up_process(consumer);
# spurious wakeup
while (!reader_finish &&
!kill_test)
# leaving because
# kill_test == 1
reader_finish = 0;
complete(&read_done);
1st BANG: We might access uninitialized "read_done" if this is the
the first round.
# producer finally leaving
# the do-while cycle because kill_test == 1;
if (consumer) {
reader_finish = 1;
wake_up_process(consumer);
wait_for_completion(&read_done);
2nd BANG: This will never complete because consumer already did
the completion.
2nd scenario:
-------------
CPU0 CPU1
ring_buffer_producer_thread()
wake_up_process(consumer);
wait_for_completion(&read_start);
ring_buffer_consumer_thread()
complete(&read_start);
ring_buffer_producer()
# CPU3 removes the module <--- difference from
# and stops producer <--- the 1st scenario
if (kthread_should_stop())
kill_test = 1;
ring_buffer_consumer();
while (!reader_finish &&
!kill_test)
# kill_test == 1 => we never go
# into the top level while()
reader_finish = 0;
complete(&read_done);
# producer still in the middle of
# do-while cycle
if (consumer && !(cnt % wakeup_interval))
wake_up_process(consumer);
# spurious wakeup
while (!reader_finish &&
!kill_test)
# leaving because kill_test == 1
reader_finish = 0;
complete(&read_done);
BANG: We are in the same "bang" situations as in the 1st scenario.
Root of the problem:
--------------------
ring_buffer_consumer() must complete "read_done" only when "reader_finish"
variable is set. It must not be skipped due to other conditions.
Note that we still must keep the check for "reader_finish" in a loop
because there might be spurious wakeups as described in the
above scenarios.
Solution:
----------
The top level cycle in ring_buffer_consumer() will finish only when
"reader_finish" is set. The data will be read in "while-do" cycle
so that they are not read after an error (kill_test == 1)
or a spurious wake up.
In addition, "reader_finish" is manipulated by the producer thread.
Therefore we add READ_ONCE() to make sure that the fresh value is
read in each cycle. Also we add the corresponding barrier
to synchronize the sleep check.
Next we set the state back to TASK_RUNNING for the situation where we
did not sleep.
Just from paranoid reasons, we initialize both completions statically.
This is safer, in case there are other races that we are unaware of.
As a side effect we could remove the memory barrier from
ring_buffer_producer_thread(). IMHO, this was the reason for
the barrier. ring_buffer_reset() uses spin locks that should
provide the needed memory barrier for using the buffer.

This patch introduces a module that registers and implements a low-level
reset function for the AMD XGBE device.
it performs the following actions:
- reset the PHY
- disable auto-negotiation
- disable & clear auto-negotiation IRQ
- soft-reset the MAC
Those tiny pieces of code are inherited from the native xgbe driver.

Remove the static lookup table and use the dynamic list of registered
reset functions instead. Also load the reset module through its alias.
The reset struct module pointer is stored in vfio_platform_device.
We also remove the useless struct device pointer parameter in
vfio_platform_get_reset.
This patch fixes the issue related to the usage of __symbol_get, which
besides from being moot, prevented compilation with CONFIG_MODULES
disabled.
Also usage of MODULE_ALIAS makes possible to add a new reset module
without needing to update the framework. This was suggested by Arnd.

module from vfio-platform and vfio-amba. This makes possible
to have separate module inits and works around a race between
platform driver init and vfio reset module init: that way we
make sure symbols exported by base are available when vfio-platform
driver gets probed.

vfio_platform_{read,write}_mmio() call ioremap_nocache() to map
a region of io memory, which they store in struct vfio_platform_region to
be eventually re-used, or unmapped by vfio_platform_regions_cleanup().
These functions receive a copy of their struct vfio_platform_region
argument on the stack - so these mapped areas are always allocated, and
always leaked.

Current vfio_pgsize_bitmap code hides the supported IOMMU page
sizes smaller than PAGE_SIZE. As a result, in case the IOMMU
does not support PAGE_SIZE page, the alignment check on map/unmap
is done with larger page sizes, if any. This can fail although
mapping could be done with pages smaller than PAGE_SIZE.
This patch modifies vfio_pgsize_bitmap implementation so that,
in case the IOMMU supports page sizes smaller than PAGE_SIZE
we pretend PAGE_SIZE is supported and hide sub-PAGE_SIZE sizes.
That way the user will be able to map/unmap buffers whose size/
start address is aligned with PAGE_SIZE. Pinning code uses that
granularity while iommu driver can use the sub-PAGE_SIZE size
to map the buffer.
