"A bit larger than what I'd wish for - half of it is due to hw driver
updates to Intel Ivy-Bridge which info got recently released,
cycles:pp should work there now too, amongst other things. (but we
are generally making exceptions for hardware enablement of this type.)
There are also callchain fixes in it - responding to mostly
theoretical (but valid) concerns. The tooling side sports perf.data
endianness/portability fixes which did not make it for the merge
window - and various other fixes as well."

It was reported that compiling for 32-bit caused a bunch of

WARNING: arch/x86/built-in.o(.data+0x5af0): Section mismatch in

references the function __init nmi_unk_cb() [...]
Both of these are attributed to the internal representation of
the nmiaction struct created during register_nmi_handler. The
reason for this is that those structs are not defined in the
init section whereas the rest of the code in nmi_selftest.c is.
To resolve this, I created a new #define,
register_nmi_handler_initonly, that tags the struct as
__initdata to resolve the mismatch. This #define should only be
used in rare situations where the register/unregister is called
during init of the kernel.
Big thanks to Jan Beulich for decoding this for me as I didn't
have a clue what was going on.

Without this patch, applications with two different stack
regions (eg: native stack vs JIT stack) get truncated
callchains even when RBP chaining is present. GDB shows proper
stack traces and the frame pointer chaining is intact.
This patch disables the (fp < RSP) check, hoping that other checks
in the code save the day for us. In our limited testing, this
didn't seem to break anything.
In the long term, we could potentially have userspace advise
the kernel on the range of valid stack addresses, so we don't
spend a lot of time unwinding from bogus addresses.

Zheng Yan reported that event group validation can wreck event state
when Intel extra_reg allocation changes event state.
Validation shouldn't change any persistent state. Cloning events in
validate_{event,group}() isn't really pretty either, so add a few
special cases to avoid modifying the event state.
The code is restructured to minimize the special case impact.

In current Linux, percpu variable `vector_irq' is not cleared on
offlined cpus while disabling devices' irqs. If the cpu that has
the disabled irqs in vector_irq is hotplugged,
__setup_vector_irq() hits invalid irq vector and may crash.
This bug can be reproduced as following;
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu7/online
# modprobe -r some_driver_using_interrupts # vector_irq@cpu7 uncleared
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu7/online # kernel may crash
This patch fixes this bug by clearing vector_irq in
__clear_irq_vector() even if the cpu is offlined.

---[ end trace 320af5cb1cb60c5b ]---
The root cause seems to be the
default_send_IPI_mask_allbutself_phys() takes quite some time (I
measured it could be several ms) to complete sending NMIs to all
the other 23 CPUs, and for HZ=250/1000 system, the time is long
enough for a timer interrupt to happen, which will in turn
trigger to kick load balance to a stopped CPU and cause this
warning in native_smp_send_reschedule().
So disabling the local irq before stop_other_cpu() can fix this
problem (tested 25 times reboot ok), and it is fine as there
should be nobody caring the timer interrupt in such reboot
stage.
The latest 3.4 kernel slightly changes this behavior by sending
REBOOT_VECTOR first and only send NMI_VECTOR if the REBOOT_VCTOR
fails, and this patch is still needed to prevent the problem.

- Removal for PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL for x32 (obsolete interface which
should never have been ported, and the port is broken and
potentially dangerous.)
- ftrace stack corruption fixes. I'm not super-happy about the
technical implementation, but it is probably the least invasive in
the short term. In the future I would like a single method for
nesting the debug stack, however."

x86: Reset the debug_stack update counter
ftrace: Use breakpoint method to update ftrace caller
ftrace: Synchronize variable setting with breakpoints
When I added x32 ptrace to 3.4 kernel, I also include PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL
support for x32 GDB For ARCH_GET_FS/GS, it takes a pointer to int64. But
at user level, ARCH_GET_FS/GS takes a pointer to int32. So I have to add
x32 ptrace to glibc to handle it with a temporary int64 passed to kernel and
copy it back to GDB as int32. Roland suggested that PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL
is obsolete and x32 GDB should use fs_base and gs_base fields of
user_regs_struct instead.
Accordingly, remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL completely from the x32 code to
avoid possible memory overrun when pointer to int32 is passed to
kernel.

If we end up calling do_notify_resume() with !user_mode(refs), it
does nothing (do_signal() explicitly bails out and we can't get there
with TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME in such situations). Then we jump to
resume_userspace_sig, which rechecks the same thing and bails out
to resume_kernel, thus breaking the loop.
It's easier and cheaper to check *before* calling do_notify_resume()
and bail out to resume_kernel immediately. And kill the check in
do_signal()...
Note that on amd64 we can't get there with !user_mode() at all - asm
glue takes care of that.

Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when
sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted
to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one).
I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate
story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number +
siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one,
signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() -
take one).

When both DYNAMIC_FTRACE and LOCKDEP are set, the TRACE_IRQS_ON/OFF
will call into the lockdep code. The lockdep code can call lots of
functions that may be traced by ftrace. When ftrace is updating its
code and hits a breakpoint, the breakpoint handler will call into
lockdep. If lockdep happens to call a function that also has a breakpoint
attached, it will jump back into the breakpoint handler resetting
the stack to the debug stack and corrupt the contents currently on
that stack.
The 'do_sym' call that calls do_int3() is protected by modifying the
IST table to point to a different location if another breakpoint is
hit. But the TRACE_IRQS_OFF/ON are outside that protection, and if
a breakpoint is hit from those, the stack will get corrupted, and
the kernel will crash:

The solution was to reuse the NMI functions that change the IDT table to make the debug
stack keep its current stack (in kernel mode) when hitting a breakpoint:
call debug_stack_set_zero
TRACE_IRQS_ON
call debug_stack_reset
If the TRACE_IRQS_ON happens to hit a breakpoint then it will keep the current stack
and not crash the box.
Reported-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>
Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
When the NMI handler runs, it checks if it preempted a debug handler
and if that handler is using the debug stack. If it is, it changes the
IDT table not to update the stack, otherwise it will reset the debug
stack and corrupt the debug handler it preempted.
Now that ftrace uses breakpoints to change functions from nops to
callers, many more places may hit a breakpoint. Unfortunately this
includes some of the calls that lockdep performs. Which causes issues
with the debug stack. It too needs to change the debug stack before
tracing (if called from the debug handler).
Allow the debug_stack_set_zero() and debug_stack_reset() to be nested
so that the debug handlers can take advantage of them too.

When an NMI goes off and it sees that it preempted the debug stack,
to keep the debug stack safe, it changes the IDT to point to one that
does not modify the stack on breakpoint (to allow breakpoints in NMIs).
But the variable that gets set to know to undo it on exit never gets
cleared on exit. Thus every NMI will reset it on exit the first time
it is done even if it does not need to be reset.
[ Added H. Peter Anvin's suggestion to use this_cpu_read/write ]

On boot up and module load, it is fine to modify the code directly,
without the use of breakpoints. This is because boot up modification
is done before SMP is initialized, thus the modification is serial,
and module load is done before the module executes.
But after that we must use a SMP safe method to modify running code.
Otherwise, if we are running the function tracer and update its
function (by starting off the stack tracer, or perf tracing)
the change of the function called by the ftrace trampoline is done
directly. If this is being executed on another CPU, that CPU may
take a GPF and crash the kernel.
The breakpoint method is used to change the nops at all the functions, but
the change of the ftrace callback handler itself was still using a
direct modification. If tracing was enabled and the function callback
was changed then another CPU could fault if it was currently calling
the original callback. This modification must use the breakpoint method
too.
Note, the direct method is still used for boot up and module load.

When the function tracer starts modifying the code via breakpoints
it sets a variable (modifying_ftrace_code) to inform the breakpoint
handler to call the ftrace int3 code.
But there's no synchronization between setting this code and the
handler, thus it is possible for the handler to be called on another
CPU before it sees the variable. This will cause a kernel crash as
the int3 handler will not know what to do with it.
I originally added smp_mb()'s to force the visibility of the variable
but H. Peter Anvin suggested that I just make it atomic.

Pull x86 trampoline rework from H. Peter Anvin:
"This code reworks all the "trampoline"/"realmode" code (various bits
that need to live in the first megabyte of memory, most but not all of
which runs in real mode at some point) in the kernel into a single
object. The main reason for doing this is that it eliminates the last
place in the kernel where we needed pages to be mapped RWX. This code
separates all that code into proper R/RW/RX pages."

Pull CMA and ARM DMA-mapping updates from Marek Szyprowski:
"These patches contain two major updates for DMA mapping subsystem
(mainly for ARM architecture). First one is Contiguous Memory
Allocator (CMA) which makes it possible for device drivers to allocate
big contiguous chunks of memory after the system has booted.
The main difference from the similar frameworks is the fact that CMA
allows to transparently reuse the memory region reserved for the big
chunk allocation as a system memory, so no memory is wasted when no
big chunk is allocated. Once the alloc request is issued, the
framework migrates system pages to create space for the required big
chunk of physically contiguous memory.
For more information one can refer to nice LWN articles:
- 'A reworked contiguous memory allocator':
http://lwn.net/Articles/447405/
- 'CMA and ARM':
http://lwn.net/Articles/450286/
- 'A deep dive into CMA':
http://lwn.net/Articles/486301/
- and the following thread with the patches and links to all previous
versions:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/3/204
The main client for this new framework is ARM DMA-mapping subsystem.
The second part provides a complete redesign in ARM DMA-mapping
subsystem. The core implementation has been changed to use common
struct dma_map_ops based infrastructure with the recent updates for
new dma attributes merged in v3.4-rc2. This allows to use more than
one implementation of dma-mapping calls and change/select them on the
struct device basis. The first client of this new infractructure is
dmabounce implementation which has been completely cut out of the
core, common code.
The last patch of this redesign update introduces a new, experimental
implementation of dma-mapping calls on top of generic IOMMU framework.
This lets ARM sub-platform to transparently use IOMMU for DMA-mapping
calls if one provides required IOMMU hardware.
For more information please refer to the following thread:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg175729.html
The last patch merges changes from both updates and provides a
resolution for the conflicts which cannot be avoided when patches have
been applied on the same files (mainly arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c)."

Pull user-space probe instrumentation from Ingo Molnar:
"The uprobes code originates from SystemTap and has been used for years
in Fedora and RHEL kernels. This version is much rewritten, reviews
from PeterZ, Oleg and myself shaped the end result.
This tree includes uprobes support in 'perf probe' - but SystemTap
(and other tools) can take advantage of user probe points as well.
Sample usage of uprobes via perf, for example to profile malloc()
calls without modifying user-space binaries.
First boot a new kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENT=y enabled.
If you don't know which function you want to probe you can pick one
from 'perf top' or can get a list all functions that can be probed
within libc (binaries can be specified as well):
$ perf probe -F -x /lib/libc.so.6
To probe libc's malloc():
$ perf probe -x /lib64/libc.so.6 malloc
Added new event:
probe_libc:malloc (on 0x7eac0)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1
Make use of it to create a call graph (as the flat profile is going to
look very boring):
$ perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -gR make

The core uprobes design is fairly straightforward: uprobes probe
points register themselves at (inode:offset) addresses of
libraries/binaries, after which all existing (or new) vmas that map
that address will have a software breakpoint injected at that address.
vmas are COW-ed to preserve original content. The probe points are
kept in an rbtree.
If user-space executes the probed inode:offset instruction address
then an event is generated which can be recovered from the regular
perf event channels and mmap-ed ring-buffer.
Multiple probes at the same address are supported, they create a
dynamic callback list of event consumers.
The basic model is further complicated by the XOL speedup: the
original instruction that is probed is copied (in an architecture
specific fashion) and executed out of line when the probe triggers.
The XOL area is a single vma per process, with a fixed number of
entries (which limits probe execution parallelism).
The API: uprobes are installed/removed via
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, the API is integrated to
align with the kprobes interface as much as possible, but is separate
to it.
Injecting a probe point is privileged operation, which can be relaxed
by setting perf_paranoid to -1.
You can use multiple probes as well and mix them with kprobes and
regular PMU events or tracepoints, when instrumenting a task."
