Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This update is pretty big and almost exclusively includes tooling
changes, because v4.9's LTS status forced to completion most of the
pending kernel side hardware enablement work and because we tried to
freeze core perf work a bit to give a time window for the fuzzing
efforts.
The diff is large mostly due to the JSON hardware event tables added
for Intel and Power8 CPUs. This was a popular feature request from
people working close to hardware and from the HPC community.
Tree size is big because this added the CPU event tables for over a
decade of Intel CPUs. Future changes for a CPU vendor alrady support
should be much smaller, as events for new models are added. The new
events are listed in 'perf list', for the CPU model the tool is
running on. If you find an interesting event it can be used as-is:
$ perf stat -a -e l2_lines_out.pf_clean sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
7,860,403 l2_lines_out.pf_clean
1.000624918 seconds time elapsed
The event lists can be searched the usual 'perf list' fashion for
(case insensitive) substrings as well:
$ perf list l2_lines_out
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
cache:
l2_lines_out.demand_clean
[Clean L2 cache lines evicted by demand]
l2_lines_out.demand_dirty
[Dirty L2 cache lines evicted by demand]
l2_lines_out.dirty_all
[Dirty L2 cache lines filling the L2]
l2_lines_out.pf_clean
[Clean L2 cache lines evicted by L2 prefetch]
l2_lines_out.pf_dirty
[Dirty L2 cache lines evicted by L2 prefetch]
etc.
There's a few high level categories as well that can be listed:
'cache', 'floating point', 'frontend', 'memory', 'pipeline', 'virtual
memory'.
Existing generic events and workflows should work as-is.
The only kernel side change is a late breaking fix for an older
regression, related to Intel BTS, LBR and PT feature interaction.
On the tooling side there are three new tools / major features:
- The new 'perf c2c' tool provides means for Shared Data C2C/HITM
analysis.
This allows you to track down cacheline contention. The tool is
based on x86's load latency and precise store facility events
provided by Intel CPUs.
It was tested by Joe Mario and has proven to be useful, finding
some cacheline contentions. Joe also wrote a blog about c2c tool
with examples:
https://joemario.github.io/blog/2016/09/01/c2c-blog/
excerpt of the content on this site:
At a high level, “perf c2c” will show you:
* The cachelines where false sharing was detected.
* The readers and writers to those cachelines, and the offsets where those accesses occurred.
* The pid, tid, instruction addr, function name, binary object name for those readers and writers.
* The source file and line number for each reader and writer.
* The average load latency for the loads to those cachelines.
* Which numa nodes the samples a cacheline came from and which CPUs were involved.
Using perf c2c is similar to using the Linux perf tool today.
First collect data with “perf c2c record”, then generate a
report output with “perf c2c report”
There one finds extensive details on using the tool, with tips on
reducing the volume of samples while still capturing enough to do
its job. (Dick Fowles, Joe Mario, Don Zickus, Jiri Olsa)
- The new 'perf sched timehist' tool provides tailored analysis of
scheduling events.
Example usage:
perf sched record -- sleep 1
perf sched timehist
By default it shows the individual schedule events, including the
wait time (time between sched-out and next sched-in events for the
task), the task scheduling delay (time between wakeup and actually
running) and run time for the task:
time cpu task name wait time sch delay run time
[tid/pid] (msec) (msec) (msec)

...
Times are in msec.usec. (David Ahern, Namhyung Kim)
- Add CPU vendor hardware event tables:
Add JSON files with vendor event naming for Intel and Power8
processors, allowing users of tools like oprofile to keep using the
event names they are used to, as well as people reading vendor
documentation, where such naming is used. (Andi Kleen, Sukadev
Bhattiprolu)
You should see all the new events with 'perf list' and you should
be able to search them, for example 'perf list miss' will list all
the myriads of miss events.
Other tooling features added were:
- Cross-arch annotation support:
o Improve ARM support in the annotation code, affecting 'perf
annotate', 'perf report' and live annotation in 'perf top' (Kim
Phillips)
o Initial support for PowerPC in the annotation code (Ravi
Bangoria)
o Support AArch64 in the 'annotate' code, native/local and
cross-arch/remote (Kim Phillips)
- Allow considering just events in a given time interval, via the
'--time start.s.ms,end.s.ms' command line, added to 'perf kmem',
'perf report', 'perf sched timehist' and 'perf script' (David
Ahern)
- Add option to stop printing a callchain at one of a given group of
symbol names (David Ahern)
- Track memory freed in 'perf kmem stat' (David Ahern)
- Allow querying and setting .perfconfig variables (Taeung Song)
- Show branch information in callchains (predicted, TSX aborts, loop
iteractions, etc) (Jin Yao)
- Dynamicly change verbosity level by pressing 'V' in the 'perf
top/report' hists TUI browser (Alexis Berlemont)
- Implement 'perf trace --delay' in the same fashion as in 'perf
record --delay', to skip sampling workload initialization events
(Alexis Berlemont)
- Make vendor named events case insensitive in 'perf list', i.e.
'perf list LONGEST_LAT' works just the same as 'perf list
longest_lat' (Andi Kleen)
- Add unwinding support for jitdump (Stefano Sanfilippo)
Tooling infrastructure changes:
- Support linking perf with clang and LLVM libraries, initially
statically, but this limitation will be lifted and shared
libraries, when available, will be preferred to the static build,
that should, as with other features, be enabled explicitly (Wang
Nan)
- Add initial support (and perf test entry) for tooling hooks,
starting with 'record_start' and 'record_end', that will have as
its initial user the eBPF infrastructure, where perf_ prefixed
functions will be JITed and run when such hooks are called (Wang
Nan)
- Implement assorted libbpf improvements (Wang Nan)"
... and lots of other changes, features, cleanups and refactorings I
did not list, see the shortlog and the git log for details"

Commit:
3cded4179481 ("x86/paravirt: Optimize native pv_lock_ops.vcpu_is_preempted()")
introduced a paravirt op with bool return type [*]
It turns out that the PVOP_CALL*() macros miscompile when rettype is
bool. Code that looked like:
83 ef 01 sub $0x1,%edi
ff 15 32 a0 d8 00 callq *0xd8a032(%rip) # ffffffff81e28120 <pv_lock_ops+0x20>
84 c0 test %al,%al
ended up looking like so after PVOP_CALL1() was applied:
83 ef 01 sub $0x1,%edi
48 63 ff movslq %edi,%rdi
ff 14 25 20 81 e2 81 callq *0xffffffff81e28120
48 85 c0 test %rax,%rax
Note how it tests the whole of %rax, even though a typical bool return
function only sets %al, like:
0f 95 c0 setne %al
c3 retq
This is because ____PVOP_CALL() does:
__ret = (rettype)__eax;
and while regular integer type casts truncate the result, a cast to
bool tests for any !0 value. Fix this by explicitly truncating to
sizeof(rettype) before casting.
[*] The actual bug should've been exposed in commit:
446f3dc8cc0a ("locking/core, x86/paravirt: Implement vcpu_is_preempted(cpu) for KVM and Xen guests")
but that didn't properly implement the paravirt call.

While chasing a regression I noticed we potentially patch the wrong

If we do not select the native code sequence, we must use the default
patcher, not fall-through the switch case.

ldt->size can never be negative. The helper functions take 'unsigned int'
arguments which are assigned from ldt->size. The related user space
user_desc struct member entry_number is unsigned as well.
But ldt->size itself and a few local variables which are related to
ldt->size are type 'int' which makes no sense whatsoever and results in
typecasts which make the eyes bleed.
Clean it up and convert everything which is related to ldt->size to
unsigned it.

My static checker complains that we put an upper bound on the "size"
argument but not a lower bound. The checker is not smart enough to know
the possible ranges of "old_mm->context.ldt->size" from
init_new_context_ldt() so it thinks maybe it could be negative.
Let's make it unsigned to silence the warning and future proof the code
a bit.

This patch allows XDP prog to extend/remove the packet
data at the head (like adding or removing header). It is
done by adding a new XDP helper bpf_xdp_adjust_head().
It also renames bpf_helper_changes_skb_data() to
bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data() to better reflect
that XDP prog does not work on skb.
This patch adds one "xdp_adjust_head" bit to bpf_prog for the
XDP-capable driver to check if the XDP prog requires
bpf_xdp_adjust_head() support. The driver can then decide
to error out during XDP_SETUP_PROG.

Lukasz reported that perf stat counters overflow handling is broken on KNL/SLM.
Both these parts have full_width_write set, and that does indeed have
a problem. In order to deal with counter wrap, we must sample the
counter at at least half the counter period (see also the sampling
theorem) such that we can unambiguously reconstruct the count.
However commit:
069e0c3c4058 ("perf/x86/intel: Support full width counting")
sets the sampling interval to the full period, not half.
Fixing that exposes another issue, in that we must not sign extend the
delta value when we shift it right; the counter cannot have
decremented after all.
With both these issues fixed, counter overflow functions correctly
again.

Rename CONFIG_SCHED_ITMT for Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0
to CONFIG_SCHED_MC_PRIO. This makes the configuration extensible
in future to other architectures that wish to similarly establish
CPU core priorities support in the scheduler.
The description in Kconfig is updated to reflect this change with
added details for better clarity. The configuration is explicitly
default-y, to enable the feature on CPUs that have this feature.
It has no effect on non-TBM3 CPUs.

In x86's include/asm/Kbuild three entries are appended to the genhdr-y make
variable:
genhdr-y += unistd_32.h
genhdr-y += unistd_64.h
genhdr-y += unistd_x32.h
The same entries are also appended to that variable in
include/uapi/asm/Kbuild. So commit:
10b63956fce7 ("UAPI: Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checking")
... removed these three entries from include/asm/Kbuild. But, apparently, some
merge conflict resolution re-added them.
The net effect is, in short, that the genhdr-y make variable contains these
file names twice and, as a consequence, that the corresponding headers get
installed twice. And so the build prints:
INSTALL usr/include/asm/ (65 files)
... while in reality only 62 files are installed in that directory.
Nothing breaks because of all that, but it's a good idea to finally remove
these unneeded entries nevertheless.

Single-stepping through head_64.S made me look at the fixmap page PTEs
fixup loop:
So we're going through the whole level2_fixmap_pgt 4K page, looking at
whether PAGE_PRESENT is set in those PTEs and add the delta between
where we're compiled to run and where we actually end up running.
However, if that delta is 0 (most cases) we go through all those 512
PTEs for no reason at all. Oh well, we add 0 but that's no reason to me.
Skipping that useless fixup gives us a boot speedup of 0.004 seconds in
my guest. Not a lot but considering how cheap it is, I'll take it. Here
is the printk time difference:
before:
...

Some Intel cores in a package can be boosted to a higher turbo frequency
with ITMT 3.0 technology. The scheduler can use the asymmetric packing
feature to move tasks to the more capable cores.
If ITMT is enabled, add SD_ASYM_PACKING flag to the thread and core
sched domains to enable asymmetric packing.

Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 (ITMT) feature
allows some cores to be boosted to higher turbo
frequency than others.
Add /proc/sys/kernel/sched_itmt_enabled so operator
can enable/disable scheduling of tasks that favor cores
with higher turbo boost frequency potential.
By default, system that is ITMT capable and single
socket has this feature turned on. It is more likely
to be lightly loaded and operates in Turbo range.
When there is a change in the ITMT scheduling operation
desired, a rebuild of the sched domain is initiated
so the scheduler can set up sched domains with appropriate
flag to enable/disable ITMT scheduling operations.

On platforms supporting Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0, the maximum
turbo frequencies of some cores in a CPU package may be higher than for
the other cores in the same package. In that case, better performance
(and possibly lower energy consumption as well) can be achieved by
making the scheduler prefer to run tasks on the CPUs with higher max
turbo frequencies.
To that end, set up a core priority metric to abstract the core
preferences based on the maximum turbo frequency. In that metric,
the cores with higher maximum turbo frequencies are higher-priority
than the other cores in the same package and that causes the scheduler
to favor them when making load-balancing decisions using the asymmertic
packing approach. At the same time, the priority of SMT threads with a
higher CPU number is reduced so as to avoid scheduling tasks on all of
the threads that belong to a favored core before all of the other cores
have been given a task to run.
The priority metric will be initialized by the P-state driver with the
help of the sched_set_itmt_core_prio() function. The P-state driver
will also determine whether or not ITMT is supported by the platform
and will call sched_set_itmt_support() to indicate that.

The scheduler calls arch_update_cpu_topology() to check whether the
scheduler domains have to be rebuilt.
So far x86 has no requirement for this, but the upcoming ITMT support
makes this necessary.
Request the rebuild when the x86 internal update flag is set.

Split irqchip allows pic and ioapic routes to be used without them being
created, which results in NULL access. Check for NULL and avoid it.
(The setup is too racy for a nicer solutions.)

KVM was using arrays of size KVM_MAX_VCPUS with vcpu_id, but ID can be
bigger that the maximal number of VCPUs, resulting in out-of-bounds

em_jmp_far and em_ret_far assumed that setting IP can only fail in 64
bit mode, but syzkaller proved otherwise (and SDM agrees).
Code segment was restored upon failure, but it was left uninitialized
outside of long mode, which could lead to a leak of host kernel stack.
We could have fixed that by always saving and restoring the CS, but we
take a simpler approach and just break any guest that manages to fail
as the error recovery is error-prone and modern CPUs don't need emulator
for this.

Cluster xAPIC delivery incorrectly assumed that dest_id <= 0xff.
With enabled KVM_X2APIC_API_USE_32BIT_IDS in KVM_CAP_X2APIC_API, a
userspace can send an interrupt with dest_id that results in
out-of-bounds access.

'm_io' is stored in 6 bits so it's a number in the 0-63 range. Static
analysis tools complain that 1 << 63 will wrap so I have changed it to
1ULL << m_io.
This code is over three years old so presumably the bug doesn't happen
very frequently in real life or someone would have complained by now.

Commit:
90954e7b9407 ("x86/coredump: Use pr_reg size, rather that TIF_IA32 flag")
changed the coredumping code to construct the elf coredump file according
to register set size - and that's good: if binary crashes with 32-bit code
selector, generate 32-bit ELF core, otherwise - 64-bit core.
That was made for restoring 32-bit applications on x86_64: we want
32-bit application after restore to generate 32-bit ELF dump on crash.
All was quite good and recently I started reworking 32-bit applications
dumping part of CRIU: now it has two parasites (32 and 64) for seizing
compat/native tasks, after rework it'll have one parasite, working in
64-bit mode, to which 32-bit prologue long-jumps during infection.
And while it has worked for my work machine, in VM with
!CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI during reworking I faced that segfault in 32-bit
binary, that has long-jumped to 64-bit mode results in dereference
of garbage:
32-victim[19266]: segfault at f775ef65 ip 00000000f775ef65 sp 00000000f776aa50 error 14
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffffffffff

That's because we have 64-bit registers set (with according total size)
and we're writing it to elf_thread_core_info which has smaller size
on !CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI. That lead to overwriting ELF notes part.
Tested on 32-, 64-bit ELF crashes and on 32-bit binaries that have
jumped with 64-bit code selector - all is readable with gdb.
