Arnaldo reported that tracepoint filters seem to misbehave (ie. not
apply) on inherited events.
The fix is obvious; filters are only set on the actual (parent)
event, use the normal pattern of using this parent event for filters.
This is safe because each child event has a reference to it.

The perf_lock_task_context() function disables preemption across its
RCU read-side critical section because that critical section acquires
a scheduler lock. If there was a preemption during that RCU read-side
critical section, the rcu_read_unlock() could attempt to acquire scheduler
locks, resulting in deadlock.
However, recent optimizations to expedited grace periods mean that IPI
handlers that execute during preemptible RCU read-side critical sections
can now cause the subsequent rcu_read_unlock() to acquire scheduler locks.
Disabling preemption does nothiing to prevent these IPI handlers from
executing, so these optimizations introduced a deadlock. In theory,
this deadlock could be avoided by pulling all wakeups and printk()s out
from rnp->lock critical sections, but in practice this would re-introduce
some RCU CPU stall warning bugs.
Given that acquiring scheduler locks entails disabling interrupts, these
deadlocks can be avoided by disabling interrupts (instead of disabling
preemption) across any RCU read-side critical that acquires scheduler
locks and holds them across the rcu_read_unlock(). This commit therefore
makes this change for perf_lock_task_context().

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
"The cgroup core saw several significant updates this cycle:
- percpu_rwsem for threadgroup locking is reinstated. This was
temporarily dropped due to down_write latency issues. Oleg's
rework of percpu_rwsem which is scheduled to be merged in this
merge window resolves the issue.
- On the v2 hierarchy, when controllers are enabled and disabled, all
operations are atomic and can fail and revert cleanly. This allows
->can_attach() failure which is necessary for cpu RT slices.
- Tasks now stay associated with the original cgroups after exit
until released. This allows tracking resources held by zombies
(e.g. pids) and makes it easy to find out where zombies came from
on the v2 hierarchy. The pids controller was broken before these
changes as zombies escaped the limits; unfortunately, updating this
behavior required too many invasive changes and I don't think it's
a good idea to backport them, so the pids controller on 4.3, the
first version which included the pids controller, will stay broken
at least until I'm sure about the cgroup core changes.
- Optimization of a couple common tests using static_key"

cgroup_exit() is called when a task exits and disassociates the
exiting task from its cgroups and half-attach it to the root cgroup.
This is unnecessary and undesirable.
No controller actually needs an exiting task to be disassociated with
non-root cgroups. Both cpu and perf_event controllers update the
association to the root cgroup from their exit callbacks just to keep
consistent with the cgroup core behavior.
Also, this disassociation makes it difficult to track resources held
by zombies or determine where the zombies came from. Currently, pids
controller is completely broken as it uncharges on exit and zombies
always escape the resource restriction. With cgroup association being
reset on exit, fixing it is pretty painful.
There's no reason to reset cgroup membership on exit. The zombie can
be removed from its css_set so that it doesn't show up on
"cgroup.procs" and thus can't be migrated or interfere with cgroup
removal. It can still pin and point to the css_set so that its cgroup
membership is maintained. This patch makes cgroup core keep zombies
associated with their cgroups at the time of exit.
* Previous patches decoupled populated_cnt tracking from css_set
lifetime, so a dying task can be simply unlinked from its css_set
while pinning and pointing to the css_set. This keeps css_set
association from task side alive while hiding it from "cgroup.procs"
and populated_cnt tracking. The css_set reference is dropped when
the task_struct is freed.
* ->exit() callback no longer needs the css arguments as the
associated css never changes once PF_EXITING is set. Removed.
* cpu and perf_events controllers no longer need ->exit() callbacks.
There's no reason to explicitly switch away on exit. The final
schedule out is enough. The callbacks are removed.
* On traditional hierarchies, nothing changes. "/proc/PID/cgroup"
still reports "/" for all zombies. On the default hierarchy,
"/proc/PID/cgroup" keeps reporting the cgroup that the task belonged
to at the time of exit. If the cgroup gets removed before the task
is reaped, " (deleted)" is appended.
v2: Build brekage due to missing dummy cgroup_free() when
!CONFIG_CGROUP fixed.

There are two races with the current code:
- Another event can join the group and compute a larger header_size
concurrently, if the smaller store wins we'll have an incorrect
header_size set.
- We compute the header_size after the event becomes active,
therefore its possible to use the size before its computed.
Remedy the first by moving the computation inside the ctx::mutex lock,
and the second by placing it _before_ perf_install_in_context().

Vince reported that its possible to overflow the various size fields
and get weird stuff if you stick too many events in a group.
Put a lid on this by requiring the fixed record size not exceed 16k.
This is still a fair amount of events (silly amount really) and leaves
plenty room for callchains and stack dwarves while also avoiding
overflowing the u16 variables.

Define a new PERF_PMU_TXN_READ interface to read a group of counters
at once.
pmu->start_txn() // Initialize before first event
for each event in group
pmu->read(event); // Queue each event to be read
rc = pmu->commit_txn() // Read/update all queued counters
Note that we use this interface with all PMUs. PMUs that implement this
interface use the ->read() operation to _queue_ the counters to be read
and use ->commit_txn() to actually read all the queued counters at once.
PMUs that don't implement PERF_PMU_TXN_READ ignore ->start_txn() and
->commit_txn() and continue to read counters one at a time.
Thanks to input from Peter Zijlstra.

When we implement the ability to read several counters at once (using
the PERF_PMU_TXN_READ transaction interface), perf_event_read() can
fail when the 'group' parameter is true (eg: trying to read too many

For now, have perf_event_read() return an integer. Ignore the return
value when the 'group' parameter is false.

perf_event_read() does two things:
- call the PMU to read/update the counter value, and
- compute the total count of the event and its children
Not all callers need both. perf_event_reset() for instance needs the
first piece but doesn't need the second. Similarly, when we implement
the ability to read a group of events using the transaction interface,
we would need the two pieces done independently.
Break up perf_event_read() and have it just read/update the counter
and have the callers compute the total count if necessary.

Currently, the PMU interface allows reading only one counter at a time.
But some PMUs like the 24x7 counters in Power, support reading several
counters at once. To leveage this functionality, extend the transaction
interface to support a "transaction type".
The first type, PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD, refers to the existing transactions,
i.e. used to _schedule_ all the events on the PMU as a group. A second
transaction type, PERF_PMU_TXN_READ, will be used in a follow-on patch,
by the 24x7 counters to read several counters at once.
Extend the transaction interfaces to the PMU to accept a 'txn_flags'
parameter and use this parameter to ignore any transactions that are
not of type PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD.

There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load.
kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c. In this patch I
split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c.
And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and
use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse.
The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature
being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled. But kexec-tools use
kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking.
Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile
in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel. KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects
KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work.
Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the
architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects
KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig. Also updated general kernel code with to
kexec_load syscall.

This patch add three core perf APIs:
- perf_event_attrs(): export the struct perf_event_attr from struct
perf_event;
- perf_event_get(): get the struct perf_event from the given fd;
- perf_event_read_local(): read the events counters active on the
current CPU;
These APIs are needed when accessing events counters in eBPF programs.
The API perf_event_read_local() comes from Peter and I add the
corresponding SOB.

By copying BPF related operation to uprobe processing path, this patch
allow users attach BPF programs to uprobes like what they are already
doing on kprobes.
After this patch, users are allowed to use PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF on a
uprobe perf event. Which make it possible to profile user space programs
and kernel events together using BPF.
Because of this patch, CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS should be selected by
CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENT to ensure trace_call_bpf() is compiled even if
KPROBE_EVENT is not set.

Currently, the PT driver zeroes out the status register every time before
starting the event. However, all the writable bits are already taken care
of in pt_handle_status() function, except the new PacketByteCnt field,
which in new versions of PT contains the number of packet bytes written
since the last sync (PSB) packet. Zeroing it out before enabling PT forces
a sync packet to be written. This means that, with the existing code, a
sync packet (PSB and PSBEND, 18 bytes in total) will be generated every
time a PT event is scheduled in.
To avoid these unnecessary syncs and save a WRMSR in the fast path, this
patch changes the default behavior to not clear PacketByteCnt field, so
that the sync packets will be generated with the period specified as
"psb_period" attribute config field. This has little impact on the trace
data as the other packets that are normally sent within PSB+ (between PSB
and PSBEND) have their own generation scenarios which do not depend on the
sync packets.
One exception where we do need to force PSB like this when tracing starts,
so that the decoder has a clear sync point in the trace. For this purpose
we aready have hw::itrace_started flag, which we are currently using to
output PERF_RECORD_ITRACE_START. This patch moves setting itrace_started
from perf core to the pmu::start, where it should still be 0 on the very
first run.

Vince reported that the fasync signal stuff doesn't work proper for
inherited events. So fix that.
Installing fasync allocates memory and sets filp->f_flags |= FASYNC,
which upon the demise of the file descriptor ensures the allocation is
freed and state is updated.
Now for perf, we can have the events stick around for a while after the
original FD is dead because of references from child events. So we
cannot copy the fasync pointer around. We can however consistently use
the parent's fasync, as that will be updated.

A recent fix to the shadow timestamp inadvertly broke the running time
accounting.
We must not update the running timestamp if we fail to schedule the
event, the event will not have ran. This can (and did) result in
negative total runtime because the stopped timestamp was before the
running timestamp (we 'started' but never stopped the event -- because
it never really started we didn't have to stop it either).

There are already two events for context switches, namely the tracepoint
sched:sched_switch and the software event context_switches.
Unfortunately neither are suitable for use by non-privileged users for
the purpose of synchronizing hardware trace data (e.g. Intel PT) to the
context switch.
Tracepoints are no good at all for non-privileged users because they
need either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid <= -1.
On the other hand, kernel software events need either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or
/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid <= 1.
Now many distributions do default perf_event_paranoid to 1 making
context_switches a contender, except it has another problem (which is
also shared with sched:sched_switch) which is that it happens before
perf schedules events out instead of after perf schedules events in.
Whereas a privileged user can see all the events anyway, a
non-privileged user only sees events for their own processes, in other
words they see when their process was scheduled out not when it was
scheduled in. That presents two problems to use the event:
1. the information comes too late, so tools have to look ahead in the
event stream to find out what the current state is
2. if they are unlucky tracing might have stopped before the
context-switches event is recorded.
This new PERF_RECORD_SWITCH event does not have those problems
and it also has a couple of other small advantages.
It is easier to use because it is an auxiliary event (like mmap, comm
and task events) which can be enabled by setting a single bit. It is
smaller than sched:sched_switch and easier to parse.
To make the event useful for privileged users also, if the
context is cpu-wide then the event record will be
PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE which is the same as
PERF_RECORD_SWITCH except it also provides the next or
previous pid/tid.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"This patch series contains several clean ups and even a new trace
clock "monitonic raw". Also some enhancements to make the ring buffer
even faster. But the biggest and most noticeable change is the
renaming of the ftrace* files, structures and variables that have to
deal with trace events.
Over the years I've had several developers tell me about their
confusion with what ftrace is compared to events. Technically,
"ftrace" is the infrastructure to do the function hooks, which include
tracing and also helps with live kernel patching. But the trace
events are a separate entity altogether, and the files that affect the
trace events should not be named "ftrace". These include:
include/trace/ftrace.h -> include/trace/trace_events.h
include/linux/ftrace_event.h -> include/linux/trace_events.h
Also, functions that are specific for trace events have also been renamed:
ftrace_print_*() -> trace_print_*()
(un)register_ftrace_event() -> (un)register_trace_event()
ftrace_event_name() -> trace_event_name()
ftrace_trigger_soft_disabled() -> trace_trigger_soft_disabled()
ftrace_define_fields_##call() -> trace_define_fields_##call()
ftrace_get_offsets_##call() -> trace_get_offsets_##call()
Structures have been renamed:
ftrace_event_file -> trace_event_file
ftrace_event_{call,class} -> trace_event_{call,class}
ftrace_event_buffer -> trace_event_buffer
ftrace_subsystem_dir -> trace_subsystem_dir
ftrace_event_raw_##call -> trace_event_raw_##call
ftrace_event_data_offset_##call-> trace_event_data_offset_##call
ftrace_event_type_funcs_##call -> trace_event_type_funcs_##call
And a few various variables and flags have also been updated.
This has been sitting in linux-next for some time, and I have not
heard a single complaint about this rename breaking anything. Mostly
because these functions, variables and structures are mostly internal
to the tracing system and are seldom (if ever) used by anything
external to that"

While looking for other users of get_state/cond_sync. I Found
ring_buffer_attach() and it looks obviously buggy?
Don't we need to ensure that we have "synchronize" _between_
list_del() and list_add() ?
IOW. Suppose that ring_buffer_attach() preempts right_after
get_state_synchronize_rcu() and gp completes before spin_lock().
In this case cond_synchronize_rcu() does nothing and we reuse
->rb_entry without waiting for gp in between?
It also moves the ->rcu_pending check under "if (rb)", to make it
more readable imo.

After enlarging the PEBS interrupt threshold, there may be some mixed up
PEBS samples which are discarded by the kernel.
This patch makes the kernel emit a PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES record with
the number of possible discarded records when it is impossible to demux
the samples.
It makes sure the user is not left in the dark about such discards.

When the PEBS interrupt threshold is larger than one record and the
machine supports multiple PEBS events, the records of these events are
mixed up and we need to demultiplex them.
Demuxing the records is hard because the hardware is deficient. The
hardware has two issues that, when combined, create impossible
scenarios to demux.
The first issue is that the 'status' field of the PEBS record is a copy
of the GLOBAL_STATUS MSR at PEBS assist time. To see why this is a
problem let us first describe the regular PEBS cycle:
A) the CTRn value reaches 0:
- the corresponding bit in GLOBAL_STATUS gets set
- we start arming the hardware assist
< some unspecified amount of time later -- this could cover multiple
events of interest >
B) the hardware assist is armed, any next event will trigger it
C) a matching event happens:
- the hardware assist triggers and generates a PEBS record
this includes a copy of GLOBAL_STATUS at this moment
- if we auto-reload we (re)set CTRn
- we clear the relevant bit in GLOBAL_STATUS
Now consider the following chain of events:
A0, B0, A1, C0
The event generated for counter 0 will include a status with counter 1
set, even though its not at all related to the record. A similar thing
can happen with a !PEBS event if it just happens to overflow at the
right moment.
The second issue is that the hardware will only emit one record for two
or more counters if the event that triggers the assist is 'close'. The
'close' can be several cycles. In some cases even the complete assist,
if the event is something that doesn't need retirement.
For instance, consider this chain of events:
A0, B0, A1, B1, C01
Where C01 is an event that triggers both hardware assists, we will
generate but a single record, but again with both counters listed in the
status field.
This time the record pertains to both events.
Note that these two cases are different but undistinguishable with the
data as generated. Therefore demuxing records with multiple PEBS bits
(we can safely ignore status bits for !PEBS counters) is impossible.
Furthermore we cannot emit the record to both events because that might
cause a data leak -- the events might not have the same privileges -- so
what this patch does is discard such events.
The assumption/hope is that such discards will be rare.
Here lists some possible ways you may get high discard rate.
- when you count the same thing multiple times. But it is not a useful
configuration.
- you can be unfortunate if you measure with a userspace only PEBS
event along with either a kernel or unrestricted PEBS event. Imagine
the event triggering and setting the overflow flag right before
entering the kernel. Then all kernel side events will end up with
multiple bits set.

In certain circumstances it may not be possible to schedule particular
events due to constraints other than a lack of hardware counters (e.g.
on big.LITTLE systems where CPUs support different events). The core
perf event code does not distinguish these cases and pessimistically
assumes that any failure to schedule an event means that it is not worth
attempting to schedule later events, even if some hardware counters are
still unused.
When an event a pmu cannot schedule exists in a flexible group list it
can unnecessarily prevent event groups following it in the list from
being scheduled (until it is rotated to the end of the list). This means
some events are scheduled for only a portion of the time they could be,
and for short running programs no events may be scheduled if the list is
initially sorted in an unfortunate order.
This patch adds a new (optional) filter_match function pointer to struct
pmu which a pmu driver can use to tell perf core when an event matches
pmu-specific scheduling requirements. This plugs into the existing
event_filter_match logic, and makes it possible to avoid the scheduling
problem described above. When no filter is provided by the PMU, the
existing behaviour is retained.

there is a race between perf_event_free_bpf_prog() and free_trace_kprobe():
__free_event()
event->destroy(event)
tp_perf_event_destroy()
perf_trace_destroy()
perf_trace_event_unreg()
which is dropping event->tp_event->perf_refcount and allows to proceed in:
unregister_trace_kprobe()
unregister_kprobe_event()
trace_remove_event_call()
probe_remove_event_call()
free_trace_kprobe()
while __free_event does:
call_rcu(&event->rcu_head, free_event_rcu);
free_event_rcu()
perf_event_free_bpf_prog()
To fix the race simply move perf_event_free_bpf_prog() before
event->destroy(), since event->tp_event is still valid at that point.
Note, perf_trace_destroy() is not racing with trace_remove_event_call()
since they both grab event_mutex.

Make sure the upstream fixes are applied before adding further
modifications.

In the below two commits (see Fixes) we have periodic timers that can
stop themselves when they're no longer required, but need to be
(re)-started when their idle condition changes.
Further complications is that we want the timer handler to always do
the forward such that it will always correctly deal with the overruns,
and we do not want to race such that the handler has already decided
to stop, but the (external) restart sees the timer still active and we
end up with a 'lost' timer.
The problem with the current code is that the re-start can come before
the callback does the forward, at which point the forward from the
callback will WARN about forwarding an enqueued timer.
Now, conceptually its easy to detect if you're before or after the fwd
by comparing the expiration time against the current time. Of course,
that's expensive (and racy) because we don't have the current time.
Alternatively one could cache this state inside the timer, but then
everybody pays the overhead of maintaining this extra state, and that
is undesired.
The only other option that I could see is the external timer_active
variable, which I tried to kill before. I would love a nicer interface
for this seemingly simple 'problem' but alas.

The term "ftrace" is really the infrastructure of the function hooks,
and not the trace events. Rename ftrace_event.h to trace_events.h to
represent the trace_event infrastructure and decouple the term ftrace
from it.
