Convert tod_clock_base to union tod_clock. This simplifies quite a bit
of code and also fixes a bug in read_persistent_clock64();
void read_persistent_clock64(struct timespec64 *ts)
{
__u64 delta;
delta = initial_leap_seconds + TOD_UNIX_EPOCH;
get_tod_clock_ext(clk);
*(__u64 *) &clk[1] -= delta;
if (*(__u64 *) &clk[1] > delta)
clk[0]--;
ext_to_timespec64(clk, ts);
}
Assume &clk[1] == 3 and delta == 2; then after the substraction the if
condition becomes true and the epoch part of the clock is decremented
by one because of an assumed overflow, even though there is none.
Fix this by using 128 bit arithmetics and let the compiler do the
right thing:
void read_persistent_clock64(struct timespec64 *ts)
{
union tod_clock clk;
u64 delta;
delta = initial_leap_seconds + TOD_UNIX_EPOCH;
store_tod_clock_ext(&clk);
clk.eitod -= delta;
ext_to_timespec64(&clk, ts);
}

This file is installed by the s390 CPU Measurement sampling
facility device driver to export supported minimum and
maximum sample buffer sizes.
This file is read by lscpumf tool to display the details
of the device driver capabilities. The lscpumf tool might
be invoked by a non-root user. In this case it does not
print anything because the file contents can not be read.
Fix this by allowing read access for all users. Reading
the file contents is ok, changing the file contents is
left to the root user only.

CPU Measurement sampling facility on s390 does not support
perf tool collection of callchain data using --call-graph
option. The sampling facility collects samples in a ring
buffer which includes only the instruction address the
samples were taken. When the ring buffer hits a watermark,
a measurement alert interrupt is triggered and handled
by the performance measurement unit (PMU) device driver.
It collects the samples and feeds each sample to the
perf ring buffer in the common code via functions
perf_prepare_sample()/perf_output_sample(). When function
perf_prepare_sample() is called to collect sample data's
callchain, user register values or stack area, invalid
data is picked, because the context of the collected
information does not match the context when the sample
was taken.
There is currently no way to provide the callchain and other
information, because the hardware sampler does not collect this
information.
Therefore prohibit sampling when the user requests a callchain graph
from the hardware sampler. Return -EOPNOTSUPP to the user in this
case.
If call chains are really wanted, users need to specify software
event cpu-clock to get the callchain information from a
software event.

When perf record -e SF_CYCLES_BASIC_DIAG runs with very high
frequency, the samples arrive faster than the perf process can
save them to file. Eventually, for longer running processes, this
leads to the siutation where the trace buffers allocated by perf
slowly fills up. At one point the auxiliary trace buffer is full
and the CPU Measurement sampling facility is turned off. Furthermore
a warning is printed to the kernel log buffer:
cpum_sf: The AUX buffer with 0 pages for the diagnostic-sampling
mode is full
The number of allocated pages for the auxiliary trace buffer is shown
as zero pages. That is wrong.
Fix this by saving the number of allocated pages before entering the
work loop in the interrupt handler. When the interrupt handler processes
the samples, it may detect the buffer full condition and stop sampling,
reducing the buffer size to zero.
Print the correct value in the error message:
cpum_sf: The AUX buffer with 256 pages for the diagnostic-sampling
mode is full

Adjust sampling buffer allocation depending on
frequency and correct comments. Investigation on the
interrupt handler revealed that almost always one interupt
services one SDB, even when running with the maximum frequency
of 100000. Very rarely there have been 2 SBD serviced per
interrupt.
Therefore reduce the number of SBD per CPU. Each SDB is one
page in size. The new formula results in
freq:4000 n_sdb:32 new:16
freq:10000 n_sdb:80 new:16
freq:20000 n_sdb:159 new:17

The s390 CPU Measurement sampling facility has an overflow condition
which fires when all entries in a SBD are used.
The measurement alert interrupt is triggered and reads out all samples
in this SDB. It then tests the successor SDB, if this SBD is not full,
the interrupt handler does not read any samples at all from this SDB
The design waits for the hardware to fill this SBD and then trigger
another meassurement alert interrupt.
This scheme works nicely until
an perf_event_overflow() function call discards the sample due to
a too high sampling rate.
The interrupt handler has logic to read out a partially filled SDB
when the perf event overflow condition in linux common code is met.
This causes the CPUM sampling measurement hardware and the PMU
device driver to operate on the same SBD's trailer entry.
This should not happen.
This can be seen here using this trace:
cpumsf_pmu_add: tear:0xb5286000
hw_perf_event_update: sdbt 0xb5286000 full 1 over 0 flush_all:0
hw_perf_event_update: sdbt 0xb5286008 full 0 over 0 flush_all:0

hw_perf_event_update: sdbt 0xb5286008 full 1 over 0 flush_all:0
hw_perf_event_update: sdbt 0xb5286008 full 0 over 0 flush_all:0
above shows 2. interrupt
... this goes on fine until...
hw_perf_event_update: sdbt 0xb5286068 full 1 over 0 flush_all:0
perf_push_sample1: overflow
one or more samples read from the IRQ handler are rejected by
perf_event_overflow() and the IRQ handler advances to the next SDB
and modifies the trailer entry of a partially filled SDB.
hw_perf_event_update: sdbt 0xb5286070 full 0 over 0 flush_all:1
timestamp: 14:32:52.519953
Next time the IRQ handler is called for this SDB the trailer entry shows
an overflow count of 19 missed entries.

Function perf_event_ever_overflow() and perf_event_account_interrupt()
are called every time samples are processed by the interrupt handler.
However function perf_event_account_interrupt() has checks to avoid being
flooded with interrupts (more then 1000 samples are received per
task_tick). Samples are then dropped and a PERF_RECORD_THROTTLED is
added to the perf data. The perf subsystem limit calculation is:
maximum sample frequency := 100000 --> 1 samples per 10 us
task_tick = 10ms = 10000us --> 1000 samples per task_tick
The work flow is
measurement_alert() uses SDBT head and each SBDT points to 511
SDB pages, each with 126 sample entries. After processing 8 SBDs
and for each valid sample calling:
perf_event_overflow()
perf_event_account_interrupts()
there is a considerable amount of samples being dropped, especially when
the sample frequency is very high and near the 100000 limit.
To avoid the high amount of samples being dropped near the end of a
task_tick time frame, increment the sampling interval in case of
dropped events. The CPU Measurement sampling facility on the s390
supports only intervals, specifiing how many CPU cycles have to be
executed before a sample is generated. Increase the interval when the
samples being generated hit the task_tick limit.

Each SBDT is located at a 4KB page and contains 512 entries.
Each entry of a SDBT points to a SDB, a 4KB page containing
sampled data. The last entry is a link to another SDBT page.
When an event is created the function sequence executed is:
__hw_perf_event_init()
+--> allocate_buffers()
+--> realloc_sampling_buffers()
+---> alloc_sample_data_block()
Both functions realloc_sampling_buffers() and
alloc_sample_data_block() allocate pages and the allocation
can fail. This is handled correctly and all allocated
pages are freed and error -ENOMEM is returned to the
top calling function. Finally the event is not created.
Once the event has been created, the amount of initially
allocated SDBT and SDB can be too low. This is detected
during measurement interrupt handling, where the amount
of lost samples is calculated. If the number of lost samples
is too high considering sampling frequency and already allocated
SBDs, the number of SDBs is enlarged during the next execution
of cpumsf_pmu_enable().
If more SBDs need to be allocated, functions
realloc_sampling_buffers()
+---> alloc-sample_data_block()
are called to allocate more pages. Page allocation may fail
and the returned error is ignored. A SDBT and SDB setup
already exists.
However the modified SDBTs and SDBs might end up in a situation
where the first entry of an SDBT does not point to an SDB,
but another SDBT, basicly an SBDT without payload.
This can not be handled by the interrupt handler, where an SDBT
must have at least one entry pointing to an SBD.
Add a check to avoid SDBTs with out payload (SDBs) when enlarging
the buffer setup.

A perf_event can be set up to deliver overflow notifications
via SIGIO signal. The setup of the event is:
1. create event with perf_event_open()
2. assign it a signal for I/O notification with fcntl()
3. Install signal handler and consume samples
The initial setup of perf_event_open() determines the
period/frequency time span needed to elapse before each signal
is delivered to the user process.
While the event is active, system call
ioctl(.., PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD, value) can be used the change
the frequency/period time span of the active event.
The remaining signal handler invocations honour the new value.
This does not work on s390. In fact the time span does not change
regardless of ioctl's third argument 'value'. The call succeeds
but the time span does not change.
Support this behavior and make it common with other platforms.
This is achieved by changing the interval value of the sampling
control block accordingly and feed this new value every time
the event is enabled using pmu_event_enable().
Before this change the interval value was set only once at
pmu_event_add() and never changed.

This contains the changes to remove the need for that restart.
This set of changes is split into several parts:
- The first part makes PIDTYPE_TGID a proper pid type instead
something only for very special cases. The part starts using
PIDTYPE_TGID enough so that in __send_signal where signals are
actually delivered we know if the signal is being sent to a a group
of processes or just a single process.
- With that prep work out of the way the logic in fork is modified so
that fork logically makes signals received while it is running
appear to be received after the fork completes"

Everywhere except in the pid array we distinguish between a tasks pid and
a tasks tgid (thread group id). Even in the enumeration we want that
distinction sometimes so we have added __PIDTYPE_TGID. With leader_pid
we almost have an implementation of PIDTYPE_TGID in struct signal_struct.
Add PIDTYPE_TGID as a first class member of the pid_type enumeration and
into the pids array. Then remove the __PIDTYPE_TGID special case and the
leader_pid in signal_struct.
The net size increase is just an extra pointer added to struct pid and
an extra pair of pointers of an hlist_node added to task_struct.
The effect on code maintenance is the removal of a number of special
cases today and the potential to remove many more special cases as
PIDTYPE_TGID gets used to it's fullest. The long term potential
is allowing zombie thread group leaders to exit, which will remove
a lot more special cases in the code.

The hardware sampler creates samples that are processed at a later
point in time. The PID and TID values of the perf samples that are
created for hardware samples are initialized with values from the
current task. Hence, the PID and TID values are not correct and
perf samples are associated with wrong processes.
The PID and TID values are obtained from the Host Program Parameter
(HPP) field in the basic-sampling data entries. These PIDs are
valid in the init PID namespace. Ensure that the PIDs in the perf
samples are resolved considering the PID namespace in which the
perf event was created.
To correct the PID and TID values in the created perf samples,
a special overflow handler is installed. It replaces the default
overflow handler and does not become effective if any other
overflow handler is used. With the special overflow handler most
of the perf samples are associated with the right processes.
For processes, that are no longer exist, the association might
still be wrong.

The lpp instruction is used to place the PID of the current
task in the program-parameter (PP) register. The register
contents is then included in the sampling data entries.
The lpp instruction loads the PP register only when at least
one sampling function is enabled. Otherwise it is executed
as a no-op.
Linux calls lpp at context switch. If the context switch
happens before the sampler is enabled, the PP register is
empty. That means, the PID of the task that is sampled is
not stored in sampling data until the next context switch.
Hence, always call lpp when enabling the sampler.

Raw sample was implemented to export the diagnostic samples.
With having this achieved with AUX buffers, there is no requirement
for basic samples to export raw data. In particular, most basic
sampling information are consumed for creating the perf event sample.

Current implementation uses a private buffer for cpumf to dump samples.
Samples first go to this buffer. Then copy to ring buffer allocated
by perf core. With AUX buffer, this copy is not needed. AUX buffer is
shared and zero-copy mapped to user space. The trailer information at
the end of each SDB(sample data block) is also exported to user space.
AUX buffer is used when diagnostic sampling mode is enabled.
This patch contains functions to setup/free AUX buffer or to begin/end
sampling per-cpu. Also include function called in interrupt to
collect samples.

Paul Burton reported that the nr_cpumask_bits check

Actually there is already a prior check within
perf_event_alloc(). Therefore remove the check.

cpumask: make "nr_cpumask_bits" unsigned
If a per-thread event is not attached to any CPU, the cpu field
in struct perf_event is -1. The above commit converts the CPU number
to unsigned int, which result in an illegal CPU number.

Rename a couple of the struct psw_bits members so it is more obvious
for what they are good. Initially I thought using the single character
names from the PoP would be sufficient and obvious, but admittedly
that is not true.
The current implementation is not easy to use, if one has to look into
the source file to figure out which member represents the 'per' bit
(which is the 'r' member).
Therefore rename the members to sane names that are identical to the
uapi psw mask defines:
r -> per
i -> io
e -> ext
t -> dat
m -> mcheck
w -> wait
p -> pstate

Bit searching functions accept "unsigned long" indices but
"nr_cpumask_bits" is "int" which is signed, so inevitable sign
extensions occur on x86_64. Those MOVSX are #1 MOVSX bloat by number of
uses across whole kernel.
Change "nr_cpumask_bits" to unsigned, this number can't be negative
after all. It allows to do implicit zero-extension on x86_64 without
MOVSX.
Change signed comparisons into unsigned comparisons where necessary.
Other uses looks fine because it is either argument passed to a function
or comparison is already unsigned.

There are three different code levels in regard to the identification
of guest samples. They differ in the way the LPP instruction is used.
1) Old kernels without the LPP instruction. The guest program parameter
is always zero.
2) Newer kernels load the process pid into the program parameter with LPP.
The guest program parameter is non-zero if the guest executes in a
process != idle.
3) The latest kernels load ((1UL << 31) | pid) with LPP to make the value
non-zero even for the idle task. The guest program parameter is non-zero
if the guest is running.
All kernels load the process pid to CR4 on context switch. The CPU sampling
code uses the value in CR4 to decide between guest and host samples in case
the guest program parameter is zero. The three cases:
1) CR4==pid, gpp==0
2) CR4==pid, gpp==pid
3) CR4==pid, gpp==((1UL << 31) | pid)
The load-control instruction to load the pid into CR4 is expensive and the
goal is to remove it. To distinguish the host CR4 from the guest pid for
the idle process the maximum value 0xffff for the PASN is used.
This adds a fourth case for a guest OS with an updated kernel:
4) CR4==0xffff, gpp=((1UL << 31) | pid)
The host kernel will have CR4==0xffff and will use (gpp!=0 || CR4!==0xffff)
to identify guest samples. This works nicely with all 4 cases, the only
possible issue would be a guest with an old kernel (gpp==0) and a process
pid of 0xffff. Well, don't do that..

When the state names got added a script was used to add the extra argument
to the calls. The script basically converted the state constant to a
string, but the cleanup to convert these strings into meaningful ones did
not happen.
Replace all the useless strings with 'subsys/xxx/yyy:state' strings which
are used in all the other places already.

This patch adds support for non-linear data on raw records. It
extends raw records to have one or multiple fragments that will
be written linearly into the ring slot, where each fragment can
optionally have a custom callback handler to walk and extract
complex, possibly non-linear data.
If a callback handler is provided for a fragment, then the new
__output_custom() will be used instead of __output_copy() for
the perf_output_sample() part. perf_prepare_sample() does all
the size calculation only once, so perf_output_sample() doesn't
need to redo the same work anymore, meaning real_size and padding
will be cached in the raw record. The raw record becomes 32 bytes
in size without holes; to not increase it further and to avoid
doing unnecessary recalculations in fast-path, we can reuse
next pointer of the last fragment, idea here is borrowed from
ZERO_OR_NULL_PTR(), which should keep the perf_output_sample()
path for PERF_SAMPLE_RAW minimal.
This facility is needed for BPF's event output helper as a first
user that will, in a follow-up, add an additional perf_raw_frag
to its perf_raw_record in order to be able to more efficiently
dump skb context after a linear head meta data related to it.
skbs can be non-linear and thus need a custom output function to
dump buffers. Currently, the skb data needs to be copied twice;
with the help of __output_custom() this work only needs to be
done once. Future users could be things like XDP/BPF programs
that work on different context though and would thus also have
a different callback function.
The few users of raw records are adapted to initialize their frag
data from the raw record itself, no change in behavior for them.
The code is based upon a PoC diff provided by Peter Zijlstra [1].
