PEBS-via-PT records contain a mask of applicable counters. To identify
which event belongs to which counter, a side-band event is needed. Until
now, there has been no side-band event, and consequently users were limited
to using a single event.
Add such a side-band event. Note the event is optimised to output only
when the counter index changes for an event. That works only so long as
all PEBS-via-PT events are scheduled together, which they are for a
recording session because they are in a single group.
Also no attribute bit is used to select the new event, so a new
kernel is not compatible with older perf tools. The assumption
being that PEBS-via-PT is sufficiently esoteric that users will not
be troubled by this.

Users of rdpmc rely on the mmapped user page to calculate accurate
time_enabled. Currently, userpage->time_enabled is only updated when the
event is added to the pmu. As a result, inactive event (due to counter
multiplexing) does not have accurate userpage->time_enabled. This can
be reproduced with something like:
/* open 20 task perf_event "cycles", to create multiplexing */
fd = perf_event_open(); /* open task perf_event "cycles" */
userpage = mmap(fd); /* use mmap and rdmpc */
while (true) {
time_enabled_mmap = xxx; /* use logic in perf_event_mmap_page */
time_enabled_read = read(fd).time_enabled;
if (time_enabled_mmap > time_enabled_read)
BUG();
}
Fix this by updating userpage for inactive events in merge_sched_in.

The typical way to access branch record (e.g. Intel LBR) is via hardware
perf_event. For CPUs with FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI support, PMI could capture
reliable LBR. On the other hand, LBR could also be useful in non-PMI
scenario. For example, in kretprobe or bpf fexit program, LBR could
provide a lot of information on what happened with the function. Add API
to use branch record for software use.
Note that, when the software event triggers, it is necessary to stop the
branch record hardware asap. Therefore, static_call is used to remove some
branch instructions in this process.

Add ability for users to specify custom u64 value (bpf_cookie) when creating
BPF link for perf_event-backed BPF programs (kprobe/uprobe, perf_event,
tracepoints).
This is useful for cases when the same BPF program is used for attaching and
processing invocation of different tracepoints/kprobes/uprobes in a generic
fashion, but such that each invocation is distinguished from each other (e.g.,
BPF program can look up additional information associated with a specific
kernel function without having to rely on function IP lookups). This enables
new use cases to be implemented simply and efficiently that previously were
possible only through code generation (and thus multiple instances of almost
identical BPF program) or compilation at runtime (BCC-style) on target hosts
(even more expensive resource-wise). For uprobes it is not even possible in
some cases to know function IP before hand (e.g., when attaching to shared
library without PID filtering, in which case base load address is not known
for a library).
This is done by storing u64 bpf_cookie in struct bpf_prog_array_item,
corresponding to each attached and run BPF program. Given cgroup BPF programs
already use two 8-byte pointers for their needs and cgroup BPF programs don't
have (yet?) support for bpf_cookie, reuse that space through union of
cgroup_storage and new bpf_cookie field.
Make it available to kprobe/tracepoint BPF programs through bpf_trace_run_ctx.
This is set by BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY, used by kprobe/uprobe/tracepoint BPF
program execution code, which luckily is now also split from
BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY_CG. This run context will be utilized by a new BPF helper
giving access to this user-provided cookie value from inside a BPF program.
Generic perf_event BPF programs will access this value from perf_event itself
through passed in BPF program context.

Current Hardware events and Hardware cache events have special perf
types, PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE and PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE. The two types don't
pass the PMU type in the user interface. For a hybrid system, the perf
subsystem doesn't know which PMU the events belong to. The first capable
PMU will always be assigned to the events. The events never get a chance
to run on the other capable PMUs.
Extend the two types to become PMU aware types. The PMU type ID is
stored at attr.config[63:32].
Add a new PMU capability, PERF_PMU_CAP_EXTENDED_HW_TYPE, to indicate a
PMU which supports the extended PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE and
PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE.
The PMU type is only required when searching a specific PMU. The PMU
specific codes will only be interested in the 'real' config value, which
is stored in the low 32 bit of the event->attr.config. Update the
event->attr.config in the generic code, so the PMU specific codes don't
need to calculate it separately.
If a user specifies a PMU type, but the PMU doesn't support the extended
type, error out.
If an event cannot be initialized in a PMU specified by a user, error
out immediately. Perf should not try to open it on other PMUs.
The new PMU capability is only set for the X86 hybrid PMUs for now.
Other architectures, e.g., ARM, may need it as well. The support on ARM
may be implemented later separately.

Hybrid PMUs have different events and formats. In theory, Hybrid PMU
specific attributes should be maintained in the dedicated struct
x86_hybrid_pmu, but it wastes space because the events and formats are
similar among Hybrid PMUs.
To reduce duplication, all hybrid PMUs will share a group of attributes
in the following patch. To distinguish an attribute from different
Hybrid PMUs, a PMU aware attribute structure is introduced. A PMU type
is required for the attribute structure. The type is internal usage. It
is not visible in the sysfs API.
Hybrid PMUs may support the same event name, but with different event
encoding, e.g., the mem-loads event on an Atom PMU has different event
encoding from a Core PMU. It brings issue if two attributes are
created for them. Current sysfs_update_group finds an attribute by
searching the attr name (aka event name). If two attributes have the
same event name, the first attribute will be replaced.
To address the issue, only one attribute is created for the event. The
event_str is extended and stores event encodings from all Hybrid PMUs.
Each event encoding is divided by ";". The order of the event encodings
must follow the order of the hybrid PMU index. The event_str is internal
usage as well. When a user wants to show the attribute of a Hybrid PMU,
only the corresponding part of the string is displayed.

This patch adds a new software event to count context switches
involving cgroup switches. So it's counted only if cgroups of
previous and next tasks are different. Note that it only checks the
cgroups in the perf_event subsystem. For cgroup v2, it shouldn't
matter anyway.
One can argue that we can do this by using existing sched_switch event
with eBPF. But some systems might not have eBPF for some reason so
I'd like to add this as a simple way.

Adds bit perf_event_attr::sigtrap, which can be set to cause events to
send SIGTRAP (with si_code TRAP_PERF) to the task where the event
occurred. The primary motivation is to support synchronous signals on
perf events in the task where an event (such as breakpoints) triggered.
To distinguish perf events based on the event type, the type is set in
si_errno. For events that are associated with an address, si_addr is
copied from perf_sample_data.
The new field perf_event_attr::sig_data is copied to si_perf, which
allows user space to disambiguate which event (of the same type)
triggered the signal. For example, user space could encode the relevant
information it cares about in sig_data.
We note that the choice of an opaque u64 provides the simplest and most
flexible option. Alternatives where a reference to some user space data
is passed back suffer from the problem that modification of referenced
data (be it the event fd, or the perf_event_attr) can race with the
signal being delivered (of course, the same caveat applies if user space
decides to store a pointer in sig_data, but the ABI explicitly avoids
prescribing such a design).

Make perf_event_exit_event() more robust, such that we can use it from
other contexts. Specifically the up and coming remove_on_exec.
For this to work we need to address a few issues. Remove_on_exec will
not destroy the entire context, so we cannot rely on TASK_TOMBSTONE to
disable event_function_call() and we thus have to use
perf_remove_from_context().
When using perf_remove_from_context(), there's two races to consider.
The first is against close(), where we can have concurrent tear-down
of the event. The second is against child_list iteration, which should
not find a half baked event.
To address this, teach perf_remove_from_context() to special case
!ctx->is_active and about DETACH_CHILD.

Sometimes the PMU internal buffers have to be flushed for per-CPU events
during a context switch, e.g., large PEBS. Otherwise, the perf tool may
report samples in locations that do not belong to the process where the
samples are processed in, because PEBS does not tag samples with PID/TID.
The current code only flush the buffers for a per-task event. It doesn't
check a per-CPU event.
Add a new event state flag, PERF_ATTACH_SCHED_CB, to indicate that the
PMU internal buffers have to be flushed for this event during a context
switch.
Add sched_cb_entry and perf_sched_cb_usages back to track the PMU/cpuctx
which is required to be flushed.
Only need to invoke the sched_task() for per-CPU events in this patch.
The per-task events have been handled in perf_event_context_sched_in/out
already.

Current PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT sample type is very useful to expresses the
cost of an action represented by the sample. This allows the profiler
to scale the samples to be more informative to the programmer. It could
also help to locate a hotspot, e.g., when profiling by memory latencies,
the expensive load appear higher up in the histograms. But current
PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT sample type is solely determined by one factor. This
could be a problem, if users want two or more factors to contribute to
the weight. For example, Golden Cove core PMU can provide both the
instruction latency and the cache Latency information as factors for the
memory profiling.
For current X86 platforms, although meminfo::latency is defined as a
u64, only the lower 32 bits include the valid data in practice (No
memory access could last than 4G cycles). The higher 32 bits can be used
to store new factors.
Add a new sample type, PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT, to indicate the new
sample weight structure. It shares the same space as the
PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT sample type.
Users can apply either the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT sample type or the
PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT sample type to retrieve the sample weight, but
they cannot apply both sample types simultaneously.
Currently, only X86 and PowerPC use the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT sample type.
- For PowerPC, there is nothing changed for the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT
sample type. There is no effect for the new PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT
sample type. PowerPC can re-struct the weight field similarly later.
- For X86, the same value will be dumped for the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT
sample type or the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT sample type for now.
The following patches will apply the new factors for the
PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT sample type.
The field in the union perf_sample_weight should be shared among
different architectures. A generic name is required, but it's hard to
abstract a name that applies to all architectures. For example, on X86,
the fields are to store all kinds of latency. While on PowerPC, it
stores MMCRA[TECX/TECM], which should not be latency. So a general name
prefix 'var$NUM' is used here.

When studying code layout, it is useful to capture the page size of the
sampled code address.
Add a new sample type for code page size.
The new sample type requires collecting the ip. The code page size can
be calculated from the NMI-safe perf_get_page_size().
For large PEBS, it's very unlikely that the mapping is gone for the
earlier PEBS records. Enable the feature for the large PEBS. The worst
case is that page-size '0' is returned.

Current perf can report both virtual addresses and physical addresses,
but not the MMU page size. Without the MMU page size information of the
utilized page, users cannot decide whether to promote/demote large pages
to optimize memory usage.
Add a new sample type for the data MMU page size.
Current perf already has a facility to collect data virtual addresses.
A page walker is required to walk the pages tables and calculate the
MMU page size from a given virtual address.
On some platforms, e.g., X86, the page walker is invoked in an NMI
handler. So the page walker must be NMI-safe and low overhead. Besides,
the page walker should work for both user and kernel virtual address.
The existing generic page walker, e.g., walk_page_range_novma(), is a
little bit complex and doesn't guarantee the NMI-safe. The follow_page()
is only for user-virtual address.
Add a new function perf_get_page_size() to walk the page tables and
calculate the MMU page size. In the function:
- Interrupts have to be disabled to prevent any teardown of the page
tables.
- For user space threads, the current->mm is used for the page walker.
For kernel threads and the like, the current->mm is NULL. The init_mm
is used for the page walker. The active_mm is not used here, because
it can be NULL.
Quote from Peter Zijlstra,
"context_switch() can set prev->active_mm to NULL when it transfers it
to @next. It does this before @current is updated. So an NMI that
comes in between this active_mm swizzling and updating @current will
see !active_mm."
- The MMU page size is calculated from the page table level.
The method should work for all architectures, but it has only been
verified on X86. Should there be some architectures, which support perf,
where the method doesn't work, it can be fixed later separately.
Reporting the wrong page size would not be fatal for the architecture.
Some under discussion features may impact the method in the future.
Quote from Dave Hansen,
"There are lots of weird things folks are trying to do with the page
tables, like Address Space Isolation. For instance, if you get a
perf NMI when running userspace, current->mm->pgd is *different* than
the PGD that was in use when userspace was running. It's close enough
today, but it might not stay that way."
If the case happens later, lots of consecutive page walk errors will
happen. The worst case is that lots of page-size '0' are returned, which
would not be fatal.
In the perf tool, a check is implemented to detect this case. Once it
happens, a kernel patch could be implemented accordingly then.

The pmu::sched_task() is a context switch callback. It passes the
cpuctx->task_ctx as a parameter to the lower code. To find the
cpuctx->task_ctx, the current code iterates a cpuctx list.
The same context will iterated in perf_event_context_sched_out() soon.
Share the cpuctx->task_ctx can avoid the unnecessary iteration of the
cpuctx list.
The pmu::sched_task() is also required for the optimization case for
equivalent contexts.
The task_ctx_sched_out() will eventually disable and reenable the PMU
when schedule out events. Add perf_pmu_disable() and perf_pmu_enable()
around task_ctx_sched_out() don't break anything.
Drop the cpuctx->ctx.lock for the pmu::sched_task(). The lock is for
per-CPU context, which is not necessary for the per-task context
schedule.
No one uses sched_cb_entry, perf_sched_cb_usages, sched_cb_list, and
perf_pmu_sched_task() any more.

Current perf assumes that events in a group are independent. Close an
event doesn't impact the value of the other events in the same group.
If the closed event is a member, after the event closure, other events
are still running like a group. If the closed event is a leader, other
events are running as singleton events.
Add PERF_EV_CAP_SIBLING to allow events to indicate they require being

A new kmem_cache method has replaced the kzalloc() to allocate the PMU
specific data. The task_ctx_size is not required anymore.

Currently, the PMU specific data task_ctx_data is allocated by the
function kzalloc() in the perf generic code. When there is no specific
alignment requirement for the task_ctx_data, the method works well for
now. However, there will be a problem once a specific alignment
requirement is introduced in future features, e.g., the Architecture LBR
XSAVE feature requires 64-byte alignment. If the specific alignment
requirement is not fulfilled, the XSAVE family of instructions will fail
to save/restore the xstate to/from the task_ctx_data.
The function kzalloc() itself only guarantees a natural alignment. A
new method to allocate the task_ctx_data has to be introduced, which
has to meet the requirements as below:
- must be a generic method can be used by different architectures,
because the allocation of the task_ctx_data is implemented in the
perf generic code;
- must be an alignment-guarantee method (The alignment requirement is
not changed after the boot);
- must be able to allocate/free a buffer (smaller than a page size)
dynamically;
- should not cause extra CPU overhead or space overhead.
Several options were considered as below:
- One option is to allocate a larger buffer for task_ctx_data. E.g.,
ptr = kmalloc(size + alignment, GFP_KERNEL);
ptr &= ~(alignment - 1);
This option causes space overhead.
- Another option is to allocate the task_ctx_data in the PMU specific
code. To do so, several function pointers have to be added. As a
result, both the generic structure and the PMU specific structure
will become bigger. Besides, extra function calls are added when
allocating/freeing the buffer. This option will increase both the
space overhead and CPU overhead.
- The third option is to use a kmem_cache to allocate a buffer for the
task_ctx_data. The kmem_cache can be created with a specific alignment
requirement by the PMU at boot time. A new pointer for kmem_cache has
to be added in the generic struct pmu, which would be used to
dynamically allocate a buffer for the task_ctx_data at run time.
Although the new pointer is added to the struct pmu, the existing
variable task_ctx_size is not required anymore. The size of the
generic structure is kept the same.
The third option which meets all the aforementioned requirements is used
to replace kzalloc() for the PMU specific data allocation. A later patch
will remove the kzalloc() method and the related variables.

Record (single instruction) changes to the kernel text (i.e.
self-modifying code) in order to support tracers like Intel PT and
ARM CoreSight.
A copy of the running kernel code is needed as a reference point (e.g.
from /proc/kcore). The text poke event records the old bytes and the
new bytes so that the event can be processed forwards or backwards.
The basic problem is recording the modified instruction in an
unambiguous manner given SMP instruction cache (in)coherence. That is,
when modifying an instruction concurrently any solution with one or
multiple timestamps is not sufficient:
CPU0 CPU1
0
1 write insn A
2 execute insn A
3 sync-I$
4
Due to I$, CPU1 might execute either the old or new A. No matter where
we record tracepoints on CPU0, one simply cannot tell what CPU1 will
have observed, except that at 0 it must be the old one and at 4 it
must be the new one.
To solve this, take inspiration from x86 text poking, which has to
solve this exact problem due to variable length instruction encoding
and I-fetch windows.
1) overwrite the instruction with a breakpoint and sync I$
This guarantees that that code flow will never hit the target
instruction anymore, on any CPU (or rather, it will cause an
exception).
2) issue the TEXT_POKE event
3) overwrite the breakpoint with the new instruction and sync I$
Now we know that any execution after the TEXT_POKE event will either
observe the breakpoint (and hit the exception) or the new instruction.
So by guarding the TEXT_POKE event with an exception on either side;
we can now tell, without doubt, which instruction another CPU will
have observed.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

Instead of having all the sysctl handlers deal with user pointers, which
is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and
from userspace in common code. This also means that the strings are
always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit
safer.
As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers
a lot of the changes are mechnical.

Open access to monitoring of kernel code, CPUs, tracepoints and
namespaces data for a CAP_PERFMON privileged process. Providing the
access under CAP_PERFMON capability singly, without the rest of
CAP_SYS_ADMIN credentials, excludes chances to misuse the credentials
and makes operation more secure.
CAP_PERFMON implements the principle of least privilege for performance
monitoring and observability operations (POSIX IEEE 1003.1e 2.2.2.39
principle of least privilege: A security design principle that states
that a process or program be granted only those privileges (e.g.,
capabilities) necessary to accomplish its legitimate function, and only
for the time that such privileges are actually required)
For backward compatibility reasons the access to perf_events subsystem
remains open for CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileged processes but CAP_SYS_ADMIN
usage for secure perf_events monitoring is discouraged with respect to
CAP_PERFMON capability.

The PERF_SAMPLE_CGROUP bit is to save (perf_event) cgroup information in
the sample. It will add a 64-bit id to identify current cgroup and it's
the file handle in the cgroup file system. Userspace should use this
information with PERF_RECORD_CGROUP event to match which cgroup it
belongs.
I put it before PERF_SAMPLE_AUX for simplicity since it just needs a
64-bit word. But if we want bigger samples, I can work on that
direction too.
Committer testing:
$ pahole perf_sample_data | grep -w cgroup -B5 -A5

The storage required for visit_groups_merge's min heap needs to vary in
order to support more iterators, such as when multiple nested cgroups'
events are being visited. This change allows for 2 iterators and doesn't
support growth.

The low level index is the index in the underlying hardware buffer of
the most recently captured taken branch which is always saved in
branch_entries[0]. It is very useful for reconstructing the call stack.
For example, in Intel LBR call stack mode, the depth of reconstructed
LBR call stack limits to the number of LBR registers. With the low level
index information, perf tool may stitch the stacks of two samples. The
reconstructed LBR call stack can break the HW limitation.
Add a new branch sample type to retrieve low level index of raw branch
records. The low level index is between -1 (unknown) and max depth which
can be retrieved in /sys/devices/cpu/caps/branches.
Only when the new branch sample type is set, the low level index
information is dumped into the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK output.
Perf tool should check the attr.branch_sample_type, and apply the
corresponding format for PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK samples.
Otherwise, some user case may be broken. For example, users may parse a
perf.data, which include the new branch sample type, with an old version
perf tool (without the check). Users probably get incorrect information
without any warning.

Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of fixes and improvements for the perf subsystem:
Kernel fixes:
- Install cgroup events to the correct CPU context to prevent a
potential list double add
- Prevent an integer underflow in the perf mlock accounting
- Add a missing prototype for arch_perf_update_userpage()
Tooling:
- Add a missing unlock in the error path of maps__insert() in perf
maps.
- Fix the build with the latest libbfd
- Fix the perf parser so it does not delete parse event terms, which
caused a regression for using perf with the ARM CoreSight as the
sink configuration was missing due to the deletion.
- Fix the double free in the perf CPU map merging test case
- Add the missing ustring support for the perf probe command"

eBPF requires needing to know the size of the perf ring buffer structure.
But it unfortunately has the same name as the generic ring buffer used by
tracing and oprofile. To make it less ambiguous, rename the perf ring buffer
structure to "perf_buffer".
As other parts of the ring buffer code has "perf_" as the prefix, it only
makes sense to give the ring buffer the "perf_" prefix as well.

Exporting perf_event_pause() as an external accessor for kernel users (such
as KVM) who may do both disable perf_event and read count with just one
time to hold perf_event_ctx_lock. Also the value could be reset optionally.

Currently, perf_event_period() is used by user tools via ioctl. Based on
naming convention, exporting perf_event_period() for kernel users (such
as KVM) who may recalibrate the event period for their assigned counter
according to their requirements.
The perf_event_period() is an external accessor, just like the
perf_event_{en,dis}able() and should thus use perf_event_ctx_lock().

AUX data can be used to annotate perf events such as performance counters
or tracepoints/breakpoints by including it in sample records when
PERF_SAMPLE_AUX flag is set. Such samples would be instrumental in debugging
and profiling by providing, for example, a history of instruction flow
leading up to the event's overflow.
The implementation makes use of grouping an AUX event with all the events
that wish to take samples of the AUX data, such that the former is the
group leader. The samplees should also specify the desired size of the AUX
sample via attr.aux_sample_size.
AUX capable PMUs need to explicitly add support for sampling, because it
relies on a new callback to take a snapshot of the buffer without touching
the event states.
