Jiri Olsa 8300daa267 perf/x86: Filter out undefined events from sysfs events attribute
The sysfs events group attribute currently shows all hw events,
including also undefined ones.

This patch filters out all undefined events out of the sysfs events
group attribute, so they don't even show up.

Jiri Olsa a47473939d perf/x86: Make hardware event translations available in sysfs
Add support to display hardware events translations available
through the sysfs. Add 'events' group attribute under the sysfs
x86 PMU record with attribute/file for each hardware event.

This patch adds only backbone for PMUs to display config under
'events' directory. The specific PMU support itself will come
in next patches, however this is how the sysfs group will look
like:

  # ls  /sys/devices/cpu/events/
  branch-instructions
  branch-misses
  bus-cycles
  cache-misses
  cache-references
  cpu-cycles
  instructions
  ref-cycles
  stalled-cycles-backend
  stalled-cycles-frontend

The file - hw event ID mapping is:

  file                      hw event ID
  ---------------------------------------------------------------
  cpu-cycles                PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES
  instructions              PERF_COUNT_HW_INSTRUCTIONS
  cache-references          PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_REFERENCES
  cache-misses              PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_MISSES
  branch-instructions       PERF_COUNT_HW_BRANCH_INSTRUCTIONS
  branch-misses             PERF_COUNT_HW_BRANCH_MISSES
  bus-cycles                PERF_COUNT_HW_BUS_CYCLES
  stalled-cycles-frontend   PERF_COUNT_HW_STALLED_CYCLES_FRONTEND
  stalled-cycles-backend    PERF_COUNT_HW_STALLED_CYCLES_BACKEND
  ref-cycles                PERF_COUNT_HW_REF_CPU_CYCLES

Each file in the 'events' directory contains the term translation
for the symbolic hw event for the currently running cpu model.

  # cat /sys/devices/cpu/events/stalled-cycles-backend
  event=0xb1,umask=0x01,inv,cmask=0x01

Andre Przywara bffd5fc260 x86/perf: Fix virtualization sanity check
In check_hw_exists() we try to detect non-emulated MSR accesses
by writing an arbitrary value into one of the PMU registers
and check if it's value after a readout is still the same.
This algorithm silently assumes that the register does not contain
the magic value already, which is wrong in at least one situation.

Fix the algorithm to really do a read-modify-write cycle. This fixes
a warning under Xen under some circumstances on AMD family 10h CPUs.

The reasons in more details actually sound like a story from
Believe It or Not!:

First you need an AMD family 10h/12h CPU. These do not reset the
PERF_CTR registers on a reboot.
Now you boot bare metal Linux, which goes successfully through this
check, but leaves the magic value of 0xabcd in the register. You
don't use the performance counters, but do a reboot (warm reset).
Then you choose to boot Xen. The check will be triggered with a
recent Linux kernel as Dom0 again, trying to write 0xabcd into the
MSR. Xen silently drops the write (expected), but the subsequent read
will return the value in the register, which just happens to be the
expected magic value. Thus the test misleadingly succeeds, leaving
the kernel in the belief that the PMU is available. This will trigger
the following message:

[    0.020294] ------------[ cut here ]------------

The new code will change every of the 16 low bits read from the
register and tries to write and read-back that modified number
from the MSR.

Yan, Zheng a05123bdd1 perf/x86: Disable uncore on virtualized CPUs
Initializing uncore PMU on virtualized CPU may hang the kernel.
This is because kvm does not emulate the entire hardware. Thers
are lots of uncore related MSRs, making kvm enumerate them all
is a non-trival task. So just disable uncore on virtualized CPU.

Ingo Molnar a448a0318a perf/urgent fixes:
. The python binding needs to link with libtraceevent and to initialize
   the 'page_size' variable so that mmaping works again.
 
 . The callchain folding character that appears on the TUI just before
   the overhead had disappeared due to recent changes, add it back.
 
 . Intel PEBS in VT-x context uses the DS address as a guest linear address,
   even though its programmed by the host as a host linear address. This either

David Vrabel a349e23d1c xen/x86: don't corrupt %eip when returning from a signal handler
In 32 bit guests, if a userspace process has %eax == -ERESTARTSYS
(-512) or -ERESTARTNOINTR (-513) when it is interrupted by an event
/and/ the process has a pending signal then %eip (and %eax) are
corrupted when returning to the main process after handling the
signal.  The application may then crash with SIGSEGV or a SIGILL or it
may have subtly incorrect behaviour (depending on what instruction it
returned to).

The occurs because handle_signal() is incorrectly thinking that there
is a system call that needs to restarted so it adjusts %eip and %eax
to re-execute the system call instruction (even though user space had
not done a system call).

If %eax == -514 (-ERESTARTNOHAND (-514) or -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK
(-516) then handle_signal() only corrupted %eax (by setting it to
-EINTR).  This may cause the application to crash or have incorrect
behaviour.

handle_signal() assumes that regs->orig_ax >= 0 means a system call so
any kernel entry point that is not for a system call must push a
negative value for orig_ax.  For example, for physical interrupts on
bare metal the inverse of the vector is pushed and page_fault() sets
regs->orig_ax to -1, overwriting the hardware provided error code.

xen_hypervisor_callback() was incorrectly pushing 0 for orig_ax
instead of -1.

Classic Xen kernels pushed %eax which works as %eax cannot be both
non-negative and -RESTARTSYS (etc.), but using -1 is consistent with
other non-system call entry points and avoids some of the tests in
handle_signal().

There were similar bugs in xen_failsafe_callback() of both 32 and
64-bit guests. If the fault was corrected and the normal return path
was used then 0 was incorrectly pushed as the value for orig_ax.

H. Peter Anvin 4533d86270 Merge commit '5bc66170dc486556a1e36fd384463536573f4b82' into x86/urgent
From Borislav Petkov <bp@amd64.org>:

Below is a RAS fix which reverts the addition of a sysfs attribute
which we agreed is not needed, post-factum. And this should go in now
because that sysfs attribute is going to end up in 3.7 otherwise and
thus exposed to userspace; removing it then would be a lot harder.

This is done as a merge rather than a simple patch/cherry-pick since
the baseline for this patch was not in the previous x86/urgent.

Borislav Petkov 5bc66170dc x86, MCE: Remove bios_cmci_threshold sysfs attribute
450cc20103 ("x86/mce: Provide boot argument to honour bios-set CMCI
threshold") added the bios_cmci_threshold sysfs attribute which was
supposed to communicate to userspace tools that BIOS CMCI threshold has
been honoured.

However, this info is not of any importance to userspace - it should
rather get the actual error count it has been thresholded already from
MCi_STATUS[38:52].

So drop this before it becomes a used interface (good thing we caught
this early in 3.7-rc1, right after the merge window closed).

Daniel J Blueman 21c5e50e15 x86, amd, mce: Avoid NULL pointer reference on CPU northbridge lookup
When booting on a federated multi-server system (NumaScale), the
processor Northbridge lookup returns NULL; add guards to prevent this
causing an oops.

On those systems, the northbridge is accessed through MMIO and the
"normal" northbridge enumeration in amd_nb.c doesn't work since we're
generating the northbridge ID from the initial APIC ID and the last
is not unique on those systems. Long story short, we end up without
northbridge descriptors.

Intel PEBS in VT-x context uses the DS address as a guest linear
address, even though its programmed by the host as a host linear
address. This either results in guest memory corruption and or the
hardware faulting and 'crashing' the virtual machine.  Therefore we have
to disable PEBS on VT-x enter and re-enable on VT-x exit, enforcing a
strict exclude_guest.

Robert Richter 2e132b12f7 perf/AMD/IBS: Add sysfs support
Add sysfs format entries for AMD IBS PMUs:

 # find /sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_*/format
 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_fetch/format
 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_fetch/format/rand_en
 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_op/format
 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_op/format/cnt_ctl

This allows to specify following IBS options:

 $ perf record -e ibs_fetch/rand_en=1/GH ...
 $ perf record -e ibs_op/cnt_ctl=1/GH ...

Option cnt_ctl is only enabled if the IBS_CAPS_OPCNT bit is set in IBS
cpuid feature flags (AMD family 10h RevC and above).

Vince Weaver e717bf4e4f perf/x86: Add support for Intel Xeon-Phi Knights Corner PMU
The following patch adds perf_event support for the Xeon-Phi
PMU, as documented in the "Intel Xeon Phi Coprocessor (codename:
Knights Corner) Performance Monitoring Units" manual.

Even though it is a co-processor, a Phi runs a full Linux
environment and can support performance counters.

This is just barebones support, it does not add support for
interesting new features such as the SPFLT intruction that
allows starting/stopping events without entering the kernel.

The PMU internally is just like that of an original Pentium, but
a "P6-like" MSR interface is provided.  The interface is
different enough from a real P6 that it's not easy (or
practical) to re-use the code in  perf_event_p6.c

David Howells abbf1590de UAPI: Partition the header include path sets and add uapi/ header directories
Partition the header include path flags into two sets, one for kernelspace
builds and one for userspace builds.

Add the following directories to build after the ordinary include directories
so that #include will pick up the UAPI header directly if the kernel header
has been moved there.

The userspace set (represented by the USERINCLUDE make variable) contains:

	-I $(srctree)/arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi
	-I arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/generated/uapi
	-I $(srctree)/include/uapi
	-I include/generated/uapi
	-include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h

and the kernelspace set (represented by the LINUXINCLUDE make variable)
contains:

	-I $(srctree)/arch/$(hdr-arch)/include
	-I arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/generated
	-I $(srctree)/include
	-I include		--- if not building in the source tree

plus everything in the USERINCLUDE set.

Then use USERINCLUDE in building the x86 boot code.

Pull perf update from Ingo Molnar:
 "Lots of changes in this cycle as well, with hundreds of commits from
  over 30 contributors.  Most of the activity was on the tooling side.

  Higher level changes:

   - New 'perf kvm' analysis tool, from Xiao Guangrong.

   - New 'perf trace' system-wide tracing tool

   - uprobes fixes + cleanups from Oleg Nesterov.

   - Lots of patches to make perf build on Android out of box, from
     Irina Tirdea

   - Extend ftrace function tracing utility to be more dynamic for its
     users.  It allows for data passing to the callback functions, as
     well as reading regs as if a breakpoint were to trigger at function
     entry.

     The main goal of this patch series was to allow kprobes to use
     ftrace as an optimized probe point when a probe is placed on an
     ftrace nop.  With lots of help from Masami Hiramatsu, and going
     through lots of iterations, we finally came up with a good
     solution.

   - Add cpumask for uncore pmu, use it in 'stat', from Yan, Zheng.

   - Various tracing updates from Steve Rostedt

   - Clean up and improve 'perf sched' performance by elliminating lots
     of needless calls to libtraceevent.

   - Event group parsing support, from Jiri Olsa

   - UI/gtk refactorings and improvements from Namhyung Kim

   - Add support for non-tracepoint events in perf script python, from
     Feng Tang

   - Add --symbols to 'script', similar to the one in 'report', from
     Feng Tang.

  Infrastructure enhancements and fixes:

   - Convert the trace builtins to use the growing evsel/evlist
     tracepoint infrastructure, removing several open coded constructs
     like switch like series of strcmp to dispatch events, etc.
     Basically what had already been showcased in 'perf sched'.

   - Add evsel constructor for tracepoints, that uses libtraceevent just
     to parse the /format events file, use it in a new 'perf test' to
     make sure the libtraceevent format parsing regressions can be more
     readily caught.

   - Some strange errors were happening in some builds, but not on the
     next, reported by several people, problem was some parser related
     files, generated during the build, didn't had proper make deps, fix
     from Eric Sandeen.

   - Introduce struct and cache information about the environment where
     a perf.data file was captured, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Fix handling of unresolved samples when --symbols is used in
     'report', from Feng Tang.

   - Add union member access support to 'probe', from Hyeoncheol Lee.

   - Fixups to die() removal, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Render fixes for the TUI, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Don't enable annotation in non symbolic view, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Fix pipe mode in 'report', from Namhyung Kim.

   - Move related stats code from stat to util/, will be used by the
     'stat' kvm tool, from Xiao Guangrong.

   - Remove die()/exit() calls from several tools.

   - Resolve vdso callchains, from Jiri Olsa

   - Don't pass const char pointers to basename, so that we can
     unconditionally use libgen.h and thus avoid ifdef BIONIC lines,
     from David Ahern

   - Refactor hist formatting so that it can be reused with the GTK
     browser, From Namhyung Kim

   - Fix build for another rbtree.c change, from Adrian Hunter.

   - Make 'perf diff' command work with evsel hists, from Jiri Olsa.

   - Use the only field_sep var that is set up: symbol_conf.field_sep,
     fix from Jiri Olsa.

   - .gitignore compiled python binaries, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Get rid of die() in more libtraceevent places, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Rename libtraceevent 'private' struct member to 'priv' so that it
     works in C++, from Steven Rostedt

   - Remove lots of exit()/die() calls from tools so that the main perf
     exit routine can take place, from David Ahern

   - Fix x86 build on x86-64, from David Ahern.

   - {int,str,rb}list fixes from Suzuki K Poulose

   - perf.data header fixes from Namhyung Kim

   - Allow user to indicate objdump path, needed in cross environments,
     from Maciek Borzecki

   - Fix hardware cache event name generation, fix from Jiri Olsa

   - Add round trip test for sw, hw and cache event names, catching the
     problem Jiri fixed, after Jiri's patch, the test passes
     successfully.

   - Clean target should do clean for lib/traceevent too, fix from David
     Ahern

   - Check the right variable for allocation failure, fix from Namhyung
     Kim

   - Set up evsel->tp_format regardless of evsel->name being set
     already, fix from Namhyung Kim

   - Oprofile fixes from Robert Richter.

   - Remove perf_event_attr needless version inflation, from Jiri Olsa

   - Introduce libtraceevent strerror like error reporting facility,
     from Namhyung Kim

   - Add pmu mappings to perf.data header and use event names from cmd
     line, from Robert Richter

   - Fix include order for bison/flex-generated C files, from Ben
     Hutchings

   - Build fixes and documentation corrections from David Ahern

   - Assorted cleanups from Robert Richter

   - Let O= makes handle relative paths, from Steven Rostedt

   - perf script python fixes, from Feng Tang.

   - Initial bash completion support, from Frederic Weisbecker

   - Allow building without libelf, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Support DWARF CFI based unwind to have callchains when %bp based
     unwinding is not possible, from Jiri Olsa.

   - Symbol resolution fixes, while fixing support PPC64 files with an
     .opt ELF section was the end goal, several fixes for code that
     handles all architectures and cleanups are included, from Cody
     Schafer.

   - Assorted fixes for Documentation and build in 32 bit, from Robert
     Richter

   - Cache the libtraceevent event_format associated to each evsel
     early, so that we avoid relookups, i.e.  calling pevent_find_event
     repeatedly when processing tracepoint events.

     [ This is to reduce the surface contact with libtraceevents and
        make clear what is that the perf tools needs from that lib: so
        far parsing the common and per event fields.  ]

   - Don't stop the build if the audit libraries are not installed, fix
     from Namhyung Kim.

   - Fix bfd.h/libbfd detection with recent binutils, from Markus
     Trippelsdorf.

   - Improve warning message when libunwind devel packages not present,
     from Jiri Olsa"
