2017-07-12mm, tree wide: replace __GFP_REPEAT by __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL with more useful ↵Michal Hocko
semantic __GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to the page allocator. This has been true but only for allocations requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. It has been always ignored for smaller sizes. This is a bit unfortunate because there is no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests. Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful semantic. Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a success. This will work independent of the order and overrides the default allocator behavior. Page allocator users have several levels of guarantee vs. cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example) - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_ attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more aggressive reclaim - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when the request is a performance optimization and there is another fallback for a slow path. - (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) - non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh context with an expensive slow path fallback. - GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the _default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers (e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently). - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer is not invoked. - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer won't be triggered. - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed. This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders. Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL because they already had their semantic. No new users are added. __alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point. This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.

2017-07-12perf symbols: Accept zero as the kernel base addressArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Which is the case in S/390, where symbols were not being resolved because machine__get_kernel_start was only setting machine->kernel_start when the just successfully loaded kernel symtab had its map->start set to !0, when it was left at (1ULL << 63) assuming a partitioning of the address space for user/kernel, which is not the case in S/390 nor in Sparc. So just check if map__load() was successfull and set machine->kernel_start to zero, fixing kernel symbol resolution on S/390. Test performed by Thomas: ---- I like this patch.

2017-07-10perf evsel: State in the default event name if attr.exclude_kernel is setArnaldo Carvalho de Melo

2017-07-04perf evsel: Set attr.exclude_kernel when probing max attr.precise_ipArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
We should set attr.exclude_kernel when probing for attr.precise_ip level, otherwise !CAP_SYS_ADMIN users will not default to skidless samples in capable hardware. The increase in the paranoid level in commit 0161028b7c8a ("perf/core: Change the default paranoia level to 2") broke this, fix it by excluding kernel samples when probing.

2017-06-30perf intel-pt: Do not use TSC packets for calculating CPU cycles to TSCAdrian Hunter
CBR (core-to-bus ratio) packets provide an indication of CPU frequency. A more accurate measure can be made by counting the cycles (given by CYC packets) in between other timing packets (either MTC or TSC). Using TSC packets has at least 2 issues: 1) timing might have stopped (e.g. mwait) or 2) TSC packets within PSB+ might slip past CYC packets. For now, simply do not use TSC packets for calculating CPU cycles to TSC. That leaves the case where 2 MTC packets are used, otherwise falling back to the CBR value.

2017-06-27perf script: Add 'synth' event type for synthesized eventsAdrian Hunter
Instruction trace decoders such as Intel PT may have additional information recorded in the trace. For example, Intel PT has power information and a there is a new instruction 'ptwrite' that can write a value into a PTWRITE trace packet. Such information may be associated with an IP and so can be treated as a sample (PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE). Custom data can be incorporated in the sample as raw_data (PERF_SAMPLE_RAW). However a means of identifying the raw data format is needed. That will be done by synthesizing an attribute for it. So add an attribute type for custom synthesized events. Different synthesized events will be identified by the attribute 'config'. Committer notes: Start those PERF_TYPE_ after the PMU range, i.e. after (INT_MAX + 1U), i.e. after perf_pmu_register() -> idr_alloc(end=0).

2017-06-26perf tests: Add platform dependency to test 15Thomas Richter
This patch adds platform dependency into the test case 15 (perf_event_attr). It is based on a suggestion from Jiri Olsa. Add a new optional attribute named 'arch' in the [config] section of the test case file. It is a comma separated list of architecture names this test can be executed on. For example: arch = x86_64,alpha,ppc If this attribute is missing the test is executed on any platform. This does not break existing behavior. The values listed for this attribute should be identical to uname -m output. If the list starts with an exclamation mark (!) the comparison is inverted, for example for arch = !s390x,ppc the test is not executed on s390x or ppc platforms. The exclamation mark must be at the beginnning of the list. Here is an example debug output: [root@s35lp76]# fgrep arch tests/attr/test-stat-C2 arch = x86_64,alpha,ppc [root@s35lp76]# PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py \ -d ./tests/attr/ -p ./perf -vvvvv -t test-stat-C1 provides the following output: running './tests/attr//test-stat-C1' test limitation 'x86_64,alpha,ppc' <--- new loading expected events Event event:base-stat fd = 1 group_fd = -1 .....

2017-06-22perf probe: Fix probe definition for inlined functionsBjörn Töpel
In commit 613f050d68a8 ("perf probe: Fix to probe on gcc generated functions in modules"), the offset from symbol is, incorrectly, added to the trace point address. This leads to incorrect probe trace points for inlined functions and when using relative line number on symbols. Prior this patch: $ perf probe -m nf_nat -D in_range p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range.isra.9+0 $ perf probe -m i40e -D i40e_clean_rx_irq p:probe/i40e_clean_rx_irq i40e:i40e_napi_poll+2212 $ perf probe -m i40e -D i40e_clean_rx_irq:16 p:probe/i40e_clean_rx_irq i40e:i40e_lan_xmit_frame+626 After: $ perf probe -m nf_nat -D in_range p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range.isra.9+0 $ perf probe -m i40e -D i40e_clean_rx_irq p:probe/i40e_clean_rx_irq i40e:i40e_napi_poll+1106 $ perf probe -m i40e -D i40e_clean_rx_irq:16 p:probe/i40e_clean_rx_irq i40e:i40e_napi_poll+2665 Committer testing: Using 'pfunct', a tool found in the 'dwarves' package [1], one can ask what are the functions that while not being explicitely marked as inline, were inlined by the compiler: # pfunct --cc_inlined /lib/modules/4.12.0-rc4+/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/e1000e.ko | head __ew32 e1000_regdump e1000e_dump_ps_pages e1000_desc_unused e1000e_systim_to_hwtstamp e1000e_rx_hwtstamp e1000e_update_rdt_wa e1000e_update_tdt_wa e1000_put_txbuf e1000_consume_page Then ask 'perf probe' to produce the kprobe_tracer probe definitions for two of them: # perf probe -m e1000e -D e1000e_rx_hwtstamp p:probe/e1000e_rx_hwtstamp e1000e:e1000_receive_skb+74 # perf probe -m e1000e -D e1000_consume_page p:probe/e1000_consume_page e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+876 p:probe/e1000_consume_page_1 e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+1506 p:probe/e1000_consume_page_2 e1000e:e1000_clean_rx_irq_ps+1074 Now lets concentrate on the 'e1000_consume_page' one, that was inlined twice in e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq(), lets see what readelf says about the DWARF tags for that function: $ readelf -wi /lib/modules/4.12.0-rc4+/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/e1000e.ko <SNIP> <1><13e27b>: Abbrev Number: 121 (DW_TAG_subprogram) <13e27c> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xa8945): e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq <13e287> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x17a30 <3><13e6ef>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine) <13e6f0> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0x13ed2c> <13e6f4> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x17be6 <SNIP> <1><13ed2c>: Abbrev Number: 142 (DW_TAG_subprogram) <13ed2e> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xa54c3): e1000_consume_page So, the first time in e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq() where e1000_consume_page() is inlined is at PC 0x17be6, which subtracted from e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq()'s address, gives us the offset we should use in the probe definition: 0x17be6 - 0x17a30 = 438 but above we have 876, which is twice as much. Lets see the second inline expansion of e1000_consume_page() in e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq(): <3><13e86e>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine) <13e86f> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0x13ed2c> <13e873> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x17d21 0x17d21 - 0x17a30 = 753 So we where adding it at twice the offset from the containing function as we should. And then after this patch: # perf probe -m e1000e -D e1000e_rx_hwtstamp p:probe/e1000e_rx_hwtstamp e1000e:e1000_receive_skb+37 # perf probe -m e1000e -D e1000_consume_page p:probe/e1000_consume_page e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+438 p:probe/e1000_consume_page_1 e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+753 p:probe/e1000_consume_page_2 e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+1353 # Which matches the two first expansions and shows that because we were doubling the offset it would spill over the next function: readelf -sw /lib/modules/4.12.0-rc4+/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/e1000e.ko 673: 0000000000017a30 1626 FUNC LOCAL DEFAULT 2 e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq 674: 0000000000018090 2013 FUNC LOCAL DEFAULT 2 e1000_clean_rx_irq_ps This is the 3rd inline expansion of e1000_consume_page() in e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq(): <3><13ec77>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine) <13ec78> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0x13ed2c> <13ec7c> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x17f79 0x17f79 - 0x17a30 = 1353 So: 0x17a30 + 2 * 1353 = 0x184c2 And: 0x184c2 - 0x18090 = 1074 Which explains the bogus third expansion for e1000_consume_page() to end up at: p:probe/e1000_consume_page_2 e1000e:e1000_clean_rx_irq_ps+1074 All fixed now :-) [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/pahole/pahole.git/ Signed-off-by: Björn Töpel <bjorn.topel@intel.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Acked-by: Magnus Karlsson <magnus.karlsson@intel.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: 613f050d68a8 ("perf probe: Fix to probe on gcc generated functions in modules") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170621164134.5701-1-bjorn.topel@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
