2017-02-10perf/core: Fix crash in perf_event_read()Peter Zijlstra
Alexei had his box explode because doing read() on a package (rapl/uncore) event that isn't currently scheduled in ends up doing an out-of-bounds load. Rework the code to more explicitly deal with event->oncpu being -1.

2017-01-30perf/core: Fix use-after-free bugPeter Zijlstra
Dmitry reported a KASAN use-after-free on event->group_leader. It turns out there's a hole in perf_remove_from_context() due to event_function_call() not calling its function when the task associated with the event is already dead. In this case the event will have been detached from the task, but the grouping will have been retained, such that group operations might still work properly while there are live child events etc. This does however mean that we can miss a perf_group_detach() call when the group decomposes, this in turn can then lead to use-after-free. Fix it by explicitly doing the group detach if its still required.

2017-01-14perf/x86/intel: Account interrupts for PEBS errorsJiri Olsa
It's possible to set up PEBS events to get only errors and not any data, like on SNB-X (model 45) and IVB-EP (model 62) via 2 perf commands running simultaneously: taskset -c 1 ./perf record -c 4 -e branches:pp -j any -C 10 This leads to a soft lock up, because the error path of the intel_pmu_drain_pebs_nhm() does not account event->hw.interrupt for error PEBS interrupts, so in case you're getting ONLY errors you don't have a way to stop the event when it's over the max_samples_per_tick limit: NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#22 stuck for 22s!

2017-01-14perf/core: Fix concurrent sys_perf_event_open() vs. 'move_group' racePeter Zijlstra
Di Shen reported a race between two concurrent sys_perf_event_open() calls where both try and move the same pre-existing software group into a hardware context. The problem is exactly that described in commit: f63a8daa5812 ("perf: Fix event->ctx locking") ... where, while we wait for a ctx->mutex acquisition, the event->ctx relation can have changed under us. That very same commit failed to recognise sys_perf_event_context() as an external access vector to the events and thereby didn't apply the established locking rules correctly. So while one sys_perf_event_open() call is stuck waiting on mutex_lock_double(), the other (which owns said locks) moves the group about. So by the time the former sys_perf_event_open() acquires the locks, the context we've acquired is stale (and possibly dead). Apply the established locking rules as per perf_event_ctx_lock_nested() to the mutex_lock_double() for the 'move_group' case. This obviously means we need to validate state after we acquire the locks.

2017-01-14perf/core: Fix sys_perf_event_open() vs. hotplugPeter Zijlstra
There is problem with installing an event in a task that is 'stuck' on an offline CPU. Blocked tasks are not dis-assosciated from offlined CPUs, after all, a blocked task doesn't run and doesn't require a CPU etc.. Only on wakeup do we ammend the situation and place the task on a available CPU. If we hit such a task with perf_install_in_context() we'll loop until either that task wakes up or the CPU comes back online, if the task waking depends on the event being installed, we're stuck. While looking into this issue, I also spotted another problem, if we hit a task with perf_install_in_context() that is in the middle of being migrated, that is we observe the old CPU before sending the IPI, but run the IPI (on the old CPU) while the task is already running on the new CPU, things also go sideways. Rework things to rely on task_curr() -- outside of rq->lock -- which is rather tricky. Imagine the following scenario where we're trying to install the first event into our task 't': CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 (current == t) t->perf_event_ctxp[] = ctx; smp_mb(); cpu = task_cpu(t); switch(t, n); migrate(t, 2); switch(p, t); ctx = t->perf_event_ctxp[]; // must not be NULL smp_function_call(cpu, ..); generic_exec_single() func(); spin_lock(ctx->lock); if (task_curr(t)) // false add_event_to_ctx(); spin_unlock(ctx->lock); perf_event_context_sched_in(); spin_lock(ctx->lock); // sees event So its CPU0's store of t->perf_event_ctxp[] that must not go 'missing'. Because if CPU2's load of that variable were to observe NULL, it would not try to schedule the ctx and we'd have a task running without its counter, which would be 'bad'. As long as we observe !NULL, we'll acquire ctx->lock. If we acquire it first and not see the event yet, then CPU0 must observe task_curr() and retry. If the install happens first, then we must see the event on sched-in and all is well. I think we can translate the first part (until the 'must not be NULL') of the scenario to a litmus test like: C C-peterz { } P0(int *x, int *y) { int r1; WRITE_ONCE(*x, 1); smp_mb(); r1 = READ_ONCE(*y); } P1(int *y, int *z) { WRITE_ONCE(*y, 1); smp_store_release(z, 1); } P2(int *x, int *z) { int r1; int r2; r1 = smp_load_acquire(z); smp_mb(); r2 = READ_ONCE(*x); } exists (0:r1=0 /\ 2:r1=1 /\ 2:r2=0) Where: x is perf_event_ctxp[], y is our tasks's CPU, and z is our task being placed on the rq of CPU2. The P0 smp_mb() is the one added by this patch, ordering the store to perf_event_ctxp[] from find_get_context() and the load of task_cpu() in task_function_call(). The smp_store_release/smp_load_acquire model the RCpc locking of the rq->lock and the smp_mb() of P2 is the context switch switching from whatever CPU2 was running to our task 't'. This litmus test evaluates into: Test C-peterz Allowed States 7 0:r1=0; 2:r1=0; 2:r2=0; 0:r1=0; 2:r1=0; 2:r2=1; 0:r1=0; 2:r1=1; 2:r2=1; 0:r1=1; 2:r1=0; 2:r2=0; 0:r1=1; 2:r1=0; 2:r2=1; 0:r1=1; 2:r1=1; 2:r2=0; 0:r1=1; 2:r1=1; 2:r2=1; No Witnesses Positive: 0 Negative: 7 Condition exists (0:r1=0 /\ 2:r1=1 /\ 2:r2=0) Observation C-peterz Never 0 7 Hash=e427f41d9146b2a5445101d3e2fcaa34 And the strong and weak model agree.

2016-12-18uprobes: Fix uprobes on MIPS, allow for a cache flush after ixol breakpoint ↵Marcin Nowakowski
creation Commit: 72e6ae285a1d ('ARM: 8043/1: uprobes need icache flush after xol write' ... has introduced an arch-specific method to ensure all caches are flushed appropriately after an instruction is written to an XOL page. However, when the XOL area is created and the out-of-line breakpoint instruction is copied, caches are not flushed at all and stale data may be found in icache. Replace a simple copy_to_page() with arch_uprobe_copy_ixol() to allow the arch to ensure all caches are updated accordingly. This change fixes uprobes on MIPS InterAptiv (tested on Creator Ci40).

2016-12-14mm: add locked parameter to get_user_pages_remote()Lorenzo Stoakes
Patch series "mm: unexport __get_user_pages_unlocked()". This patch series continues the cleanup of get_user_pages*() functions taking advantage of the fact we can now pass gup_flags as we please. It firstly adds an additional 'locked' parameter to get_user_pages_remote() to allow for its callers to utilise VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality. This is necessary as the invocation of __get_user_pages_unlocked() in process_vm_rw_single_vec() makes use of this and no other existing higher level function would allow it to do so. Secondly existing callers of __get_user_pages_unlocked() are replaced with the appropriate higher-level replacement - get_user_pages_unlocked() if the current task and memory descriptor are referenced, or get_user_pages_remote() if other task/memory descriptors are referenced (having acquiring mmap_sem.) This patch (of 2): Add a int *locked parameter to get_user_pages_remote() to allow VM_FAULT_RETRY faulting behaviour similar to get_user_pages_[un]locked(). Taking into account the previous adjustments to get_user_pages*() functions allowing for the passing of gup_flags, we are now in a position where __get_user_pages_unlocked() need only be exported for his ability to allow VM_FAULT_RETRY behaviour, this adjustment allows us to subsequently unexport __get_user_pages_unlocked() as well as allowing for future flexibility in the use of get_user_pages_remote().

2016-10-28perf/core: Protect PMU device removal with a 'pmu_bus_running' check, to fix ↵Jiri Olsa
CONFIG_DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE=y kernel panic CAI Qian reported a crash in the PMU uncore device removal code, enabled by the CONFIG_DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE=y option: https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=147688837328451 The reason for the crash is that perf_pmu_unregister() tries to remove a PMU device which is not added at this point. We add PMU devices only after pmu_bus is registered, which happens in the perf_event_sysfs_init() call and sets the 'pmu_bus_running' flag. The fix is to get the 'pmu_bus_running' flag state at the point the PMU is taken out of the PMU list and remove the device later only if it's set.

2016-09-22perf/core: Limit matching exclusive events to one PMUAlexander Shishkin
An "exclusive" PMU is the one that can only have one event scheduled in at any given time. There may be more than one of such PMUs in a system, though, like Intel PT and BTS. It should be allowed to have one event for either of those inside the same context (there may be other constraints that may prevent this, but those would be hardware-specific). However, the exclusivity code is written so that only one event from any of the "exclusive" PMUs is allowed in a context. Fix this by making the exclusive event filter explicitly match two events' PMUs.

2016-09-10perf/core: Fix a race between mmap_close() and set_output() of AUX eventsAlexander Shishkin
In the mmap_close() path we need to stop all the AUX events that are writing data to the AUX area that we are unmapping, before we can safely free the pages. To determine if an event needs to be stopped, we're comparing its ->rb against the one that's getting unmapped. However, a SET_OUTPUT ioctl may turn up inside an AUX transaction and swizzle event::rb to some other ring buffer, but the transaction will keep writing data to the old ring buffer until the event gets scheduled out. At this point, mmap_close() will skip over such an event and will proceed to free the AUX area, while it's still being used by this event, which will set off a warning in the mmap_close() path and cause a memory corruption. To avoid this, always stop an AUX event before its ->rb is updated; this will release the (potentially) last reference on the AUX area of the buffer. If the event gets restarted, its new ring buffer will be used. If another SET_OUTPUT comes and switches it back to the old ring buffer that's getting unmapped, it's also fine: this ring buffer's aux_mmap_count will be zero and AUX transactions won't start any more.

2016-09-02perf, bpf: add perf events core support for BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT programsAlexei Starovoitov
Allow attaching BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT programs to sw and hw perf events via overflow_handler mechanism. When program is attached the overflow_handlers become stacked. The program acts as a filter. Returning zero from the program means that the normal perf_event_output handler will not be called and sampling event won't be stored in the ring buffer. The overflow_handler_context==NULL is an additional safety check to make sure programs are not attached to hw breakpoints and watchdog in case other checks (that prevent that now anyway) get accidentally relaxed in the future. The program refcnt is incremented in case perf_events are inhereted when target task is forked. Similar to kprobe and tracepoint programs there is no ioctl to detach the program or swap already attached program. The user space expected to close(perf_event_fd) like it does right now for kprobe+bpf. That restriction simplifies the code quite a bit. The invocation of overflow_handler in __perf_event_overflow() is now done via READ_ONCE, since that pointer can be replaced when the program is attached while perf_event itself could have been active already. There is no need to do similar treatment for event->prog, since it's assigned only once before it's accessed. Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-08-24perf/core: Use this_cpu_ptr() when stopping AUX eventsWill Deacon
When tearing down an AUX buf for an event via perf_mmap_close(), __perf_event_output_stop() is called on the event's CPU to ensure that trace generation is halted before the process of unmapping and freeing the buffer pages begins. The callback is performed via cpu_function_call(), which ensures that it runs with interrupts disabled and is therefore not preemptible. Unfortunately, the current code grabs the per-cpu context pointer using get_cpu_ptr(), which unnecessarily disables preemption and doesn't pair the call with put_cpu_ptr(), leading to a preempt_count() imbalance and a BUG when freeing the AUX buffer later on: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2249 at kernel/events/ring_buffer.c:539 __rb_free_aux+0x10c/0x120 Modules linked in: [...] Call Trace: [<ffffffff813379dd>] dump_stack+0x4f/0x72 [<ffffffff81059ff6>] __warn+0xc6/0xe0 [<ffffffff8105a0c8>] warn_slowpath_null+0x18/0x20 [<ffffffff8112761c>] __rb_free_aux+0x10c/0x120 [<ffffffff81128163>] rb_free_aux+0x13/0x20 [<ffffffff8112515e>] perf_mmap_close+0x29e/0x2f0 [<ffffffff8111da30>] ? perf_iterate_ctx+0xe0/0xe0 [<ffffffff8115f685>] remove_vma+0x25/0x60 [<ffffffff81161796>] exit_mmap+0x106/0x140 [<ffffffff8105725c>] mmput+0x1c/0xd0 [<ffffffff8105cac3>] do_exit+0x253/0xbf0 [<ffffffff8105e32e>] do_group_exit+0x3e/0xb0 [<ffffffff81068d49>] get_signal+0x249/0x640 [<ffffffff8101c273>] do_signal+0x23/0x640 [<ffffffff81905f42>] ? _raw_write_unlock_irq+0x12/0x30 [<ffffffff81905f69>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irq+0x9/0x10 [<ffffffff81901896>] ? __schedule+0x2c6/0x710 [<ffffffff810022a4>] exit_to_usermode_loop+0x74/0x90 [<ffffffff81002a56>] prepare_exit_to_usermode+0x26/0x30 [<ffffffff81906d1b>] retint_user+0x8/0x10 This patch uses this_cpu_ptr() instead of get_cpu_ptr(), since preemption is already disabled by the caller.

Introduce the flag PMU_EV_CAP_READ_ACTIVE_PKG, useful for uncore events, that allows a PMU to signal the generic perf code that an event is readable in the current CPU if the event is active in a CPU in the same package as the current CPU. This is an optimization that avoids a unnecessary IPI for the common case where uncore events are run and read in the same package but in different CPUs. As an example, the IPI removal speeds up perf_read() in my Haswell system as follows: - For event UNC_C_LLC_LOOKUP: From 260 us to 31 us. - For event RAPL's power/energy-cores/: From to 255 us to 27 us. For the optimization to work, all events in the group must have it (similarly to PERF_EV_CAP_SOFTWARE).

2016-08-18perf/core: Generalize event->group_flagsDavid Carrillo-Cisneros
Currently, PERF_GROUP_SOFTWARE is used in the group_flags field of a group's leader to indicate that is_software_event(event) is true for all events in a group. This is the only usage of event->group_flags. This pattern of setting a group level flags when all events in the group share a property is useful for the flag introduced in the next patch and for future CQM/CMT flags. So this patches generalizes group_flags to work as an aggregate of event level flags. PERF_GROUP_SOFTWARE denotes an inmutable event's property. All other flags that I intend to add are also determinable at event initialization. To better convey the above, this patch renames event's group_flags to group_caps and PERF_GROUP_SOFTWARE to PERF_EV_CAP_SOFTWARE. Individual event flags are stored in the new event->event_caps. Since the cap flags do not change after event initialization, there is no need to serialize event_caps. This new field is used when events are added to a context, similarly to how PERF_GROUP_SOFTWARE and is_software_event() worked. Lastly, for consistency, updates is_software_event() to rely in event_cap instead of the context index.

2016-08-18bitmap.h, perf/core: Fix the mask in perf_output_sample_regs()Madhavan Srinivasan
When decoding the perf_regs mask in perf_output_sample_regs(), we loop through the mask using find_first_bit and find_next_bit functions. While the exisiting code works fine in most of the case, the logic is broken for big-endian 32-bit kernels. When reading a u64 mask using (u32 *)(&val)[0], find_*_bit() assumes that it gets the lower 32 bits of u64, but instead it gets the upper 32 bits - which is wrong. The fix is to swap the words of the u64 to handle this case. This is _not_ a regular endianness swap.

2016-08-18perf/core: Update filters only on executable mmapMathieu Poirier
Function perf_event_mmap() is called by the MM subsystem each time part of a binary is loaded in memory. There can be several mapping for a binary, many times unrelated to the code section. Each time a section of a binary is mapped address filters are updated, event when the map doesn't pertain to the code section. The end result is that filters are configured based on the last map event that was received rather than the last mapping of the code segment. For example if we have an executable 'main' that calls library 'libcstest.so.1.0', and that we want to collect traces on code that is in that library. The perf cmd line for this scenario would be: perf record -e cs_etm// --filter 'filter 0x72c/0x40@/opt/lib/libcstest.so.1.0' --per-thread ./main Resulting in binaries being mapped this way: root@linaro-nano:~# cat /proc/1950/maps 00400000-00401000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 33169 /home/linaro/main 00410000-00411000 r--p 00000000 08:02 33169 /home/linaro/main 00411000-00412000 rw-p 00001000 08:02 33169 /home/linaro/main 7fa2464000-7fa2474000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fa2474000-7fa25a4000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 543 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc-2.21.so 7fa25a4000-7fa25b3000 ---p 00130000 08:02 543 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc-2.21.so 7fa25b3000-7fa25b7000 r--p 0012f000 08:02 543 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc-2.21.so 7fa25b7000-7fa25b9000 rw-p 00133000 08:02 543 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc-2.21.so 7fa25b9000-7fa25bd000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fa25bd000-7fa25be000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 38308 /opt/lib/libcstest.so.1.0 7fa25be000-7fa25cd000 ---p 00001000 08:02 38308 /opt/lib/libcstest.so.1.0 7fa25cd000-7fa25ce000 r--p 00000000 08:02 38308 /opt/lib/libcstest.so.1.0 7fa25ce000-7fa25cf000 rw-p 00001000 08:02 38308 /opt/lib/libcstest.so.1.0 7fa25cf000-7fa25eb000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 574 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/ld-2.21.so 7fa25ef000-7fa25f2000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fa25f7000-7fa25f9000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fa25f9000-7fa25fa000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar] 7fa25fa000-7fa25fb000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] 7fa25fb000-7fa25fc000 r--p 0001c000 08:02 574 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/ld-2.21.so 7fa25fc000-7fa25fe000 rw-p 0001d000 08:02 574 /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/ld-2.21.so 7ff2ea8000-7ff2ec9000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] root@linaro-nano:~# Before 'main()' can execute 'libcstest.so.1.0' has to be loaded in memory.

2016-08-10perf/core: Optimize perf_pmu_sched_task()Peter Zijlstra
For perf record -b, which requires the pmu::sched_task callback the current code is rather expensive: 7.68% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] perf_pmu_sched_task 5.95% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __switch_to 5.20% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __intel_pmu_disable_all 3.95% sched-pipe perf [.] worker_thread The problem is that it will iterate all registered PMUs, most of which will not have anything to do. Avoid this by keeping an explicit list of PMUs that have requested the callback. The perf_sched_cb_{inc,dec}() functions already takes the required pmu argument, and now that these functions are no longer called from NMI context we can use them to manage a list. With this patch applied the function doesn't show up in the top 4 anymore (it dropped to 18th place). 6.67% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __switch_to 6.18% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __intel_pmu_disable_all 3.92% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] switch_mm_irqs_off 3.71% sched-pipe perf [.] worker_thread Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Vince Weaver <vincent.weaver@maine.edu> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
2016-08-10perf/x86/intel: Rework the large PEBS setup codePeter Zijlstra
In order to allow optimizing perf_pmu_sched_task() we must ensure perf_sched_cb_{inc,dec}() are no longer called from NMI context; this means that pmu::{start,stop}() can no longer use them. Prepare for this by reworking the whole large PEBS setup code. The current code relied on the cpuc->pebs_enabled state, however since that reflects the current active state as per pmu::{start,stop}() we can no longer rely on this. Introduce two counters: cpuc->n_pebs and cpuc->n_large_pebs which count the total number of PEBS events and the number of PEBS events that have FREERUNNING set, resp.. With this we can tell if the current setup requires a single record interrupt threshold or can use a larger buffer. This also improves the code in that it re-enables the large threshold once the PEBS event that required single record gets removed.

2016-08-10perf/core: Sched out groups atomicallyMark Rutland
Groups of events are supposed to be scheduled atomically, such that it is possible to derive meaningful ratios between their values. We take great pains to achieve this when scheduling event groups to a PMU in group_sched_in(), calling {start,commit}_txn() (which fall back to perf_pmu_{disable,enable}() if necessary) to provide this guarantee. However we don't mirror this in group_sched_out(), and in some cases events will not be scheduled out atomically. For example, if we disable an event group with PERF_EVENT_IOC_DISABLE, we'll cross-call __perf_event_disable() for the group leader, and will call group_sched_out() without having first disabled the relevant PMU. We will disable/enable the PMU around each pmu->del() call, but between each call the PMU will be enabled and events may count. Avoid this by explicitly disabling and enabling the PMU around event removal in group_sched_out(), mirroring what we do in group_sched_in().

2016-08-10perf/core: Set cgroup in CPU contexts for new cgroup eventsDavid Carrillo-Cisneros
There's a perf stat bug easy to observer on a machine with only one cgroup: $ perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -C 0 -G / # time counts unit events 1.000161699 <not counted> cycles / 2.000355591 <not counted> cycles / 3.000565154 <not counted> cycles / 4.000951350 <not counted> cycles / We'd expect some output there. The underlying problem is that there is an optimization in perf_cgroup_sched_{in,out}() that skips the switch of cgroup events if the old and new cgroups in a task switch are the same. This optimization interacts with the current code in two ways that cause a CPU context's cgroup (cpuctx->cgrp) to be NULL even if a cgroup event matches the current task. These are: 1. On creation of the first cgroup event in a CPU: In current code, cpuctx->cpu is only set in perf_cgroup_sched_in, but due to the aforesaid optimization, perf_cgroup_sched_in will run until the next cgroup switches in that CPU. This may happen late or never happen, depending on system's number of cgroups, CPU load, etc. 2. On deletion of the last cgroup event in a cpuctx: In list_del_event, cpuctx->cgrp is set NULL. Any new cgroup event will not be sched in because cpuctx->cgrp == NULL until a cgroup switch occurs and perf_cgroup_sched_in is executed (updating cpuctx->cgrp). This patch fixes both problems by setting cpuctx->cgrp in list_add_event, mirroring what list_del_event does when removing a cgroup event from CPU context, as introduced in: commit 68cacd29167b ("perf_events: Fix stale ->cgrp pointer in update_cgrp_time_from_cpuctx()") With this patch, cpuctx->cgrp is always set/clear when installing/removing the first/last cgroup event in/from the CPU context. With cpuctx->cgrp correctly set, event_filter_match works as intended when events are sched in/out. After the fix, the output is as expected: $ perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -a -G / # time counts unit events 1.004699159 627342882 cycles / 2.007397156 615272690 cycles / 3.010019057 616726074 cycles / Signed-off-by: David Carrillo-Cisneros <davidcc@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Paul Turner <pjt@google.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com> Cc: Vince Weaver <vincent.weaver@maine.edu> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1470124092-113192-1-git-send-email-davidcc@google.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
