The counter value of a perf task may leak to another RDPMC task.
For example, a perf stat task as below is running on CPU 0.
perf stat -e 'branches,cycles' -- taskset -c 0 ./workload
In the meantime, an RDPMC task, which is also running on CPU 0, may read
the GP counters periodically. (The RDPMC task creates a fixed event,
but read four GP counters.)
$./rdpmc_read_all_counters
index 0x0 value 0x8001e5970f99
index 0x1 value 0x8005d750edb6
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
index 0x0 value 0x8002358e48a5
index 0x1 value 0x8006bd1e3bc9
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
It is a potential security issue. Once the attacker knows what the other
thread is counting. The PerfMon counter can be used as a side-channel to
attack cryptosystems.
The counter value of the perf stat task leaks to the RDPMC task because
perf never clears the counter when it's stopped.
Three methods were considered to address the issue.
- Unconditionally reset the counter in x86_pmu_del(). It can bring extra
overhead even when there is no RDPMC task running.
- Only reset the un-assigned dirty counters when the RDPMC task is
scheduled in via sched_task(). It fails for the below case.
Thread A Thread B
clone(CLONE_THREAD) --->
set_affine(0)
set_affine(1)
while (!event-enabled)
;
event = perf_event_open()
mmap(event)
ioctl(event, IOC_ENABLE); --->
RDPMC
Counters are still leaked to the thread B.
- Only reset the un-assigned dirty counters before updating the CR4.PCE
bit. The method is implemented here.
The dirty counter is a counter, on which the assigned event has been
deleted, but the counter is not reset. To track the dirty counters,
add a 'dirty' variable in the struct cpu_hw_events.
The security issue can only be found with an RDPMC task. To enable the
RDMPC, the CR4.PCE bit has to be updated. Add a
perf_clear_dirty_counters() right before updating the CR4.PCE bit to
clear the existing dirty counters. Only the current un-assigned dirty
counters are reset, because the RDPMC assigned dirty counters will be
updated soon.
After applying the patch,
$ ./rdpmc_read_all_counters
index 0x0 value 0x0
index 0x1 value 0x0
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
index 0x0 value 0x0
index 0x1 value 0x0
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
Performance
The performance of a context switch only be impacted when there are two
or more perf users and one of the users must be an RDPMC user. In other
cases, there is no performance impact.
The worst-case occurs when there are two users: the RDPMC user only
uses one counter; while the other user uses all available counters.
When the RDPMC task is scheduled in, all the counters, other than the
RDPMC assigned one, have to be reset.
Test results for the worst-case, using a modified lat_ctx as measured
on an Ice Lake platform, which has 8 GP and 3 FP counters (ignoring
SLOTS).
lat_ctx -s 128K -N 1000 processes 2
Without the patch:
The context switch time is 4.97 us
With the patch:
The context switch time is 5.16 us
There is ~4% performance drop for the context switching time in the
worst-case.

Add perf core PMU support for the Intel Sapphire Rapids server, which is
the successor of the Intel Ice Lake server. The enabling code is based
on Ice Lake, but there are several new features introduced.
The event encoding is changed and simplified, e.g., the event codes
which are below 0x90 are restricted to counters 0-3. The event codes
which above 0x90 are likely to have no restrictions. The event
constraints, extra_regs(), and hardware cache events table are changed
accordingly.
A new Precise Distribution (PDist) facility is introduced, which
further minimizes the skid when a precise event is programmed on the GP
counter 0. Enable the Precise Distribution (PDist) facility with :ppp
event. For this facility to work, the period must be initialized with a
value larger than 127. Add spr_limit_period() to apply the limit for
:ppp event.
Two new data source fields, data block & address block, are added in the
PEBS Memory Info Record for the load latency event. To enable the
feature,
- An auxiliary event has to be enabled together with the load latency
event on Sapphire Rapids. A new flag PMU_FL_MEM_LOADS_AUX is
introduced to indicate the case. A new event, mem-loads-aux, is
exposed to sysfs for the user tool.
Add a check in hw_config(). If the auxiliary event is not detected,
return an unique error -ENODATA.
- The union perf_mem_data_src is extended to support the new fields.
- Ice Lake and earlier models do not support block information, but the
fields may be set by HW on some machines. Add pebs_no_block to
explicitly indicate the previous platforms which don't support the new
block fields. Accessing the new block fields are ignored on those
platforms.
A new store Latency facility is introduced, which leverages the PEBS
facility where it can provide additional information about sampled
stores. The additional information includes the data address, memory
auxiliary info (e.g. Data Source, STLB miss) and the latency of the
store access. To enable the facility, the new event (0x02cd) has to be
programed on the GP counter 0. A new flag PERF_X86_EVENT_PEBS_STLAT is
introduced to indicate the event. The store_latency_data() is introduced
to parse the memory auxiliary info.
The layout of access latency field of PEBS Memory Info Record has been
changed. Two latency, instruction latency (bit 15:0) and cache access
latency (bit 47:32) are recorded.
- The cache access latency is similar to previous memory access latency.
For loads, the latency starts by the actual cache access until the
data is returned by the memory subsystem.
For stores, the latency starts when the demand write accesses the L1
data cache and lasts until the cacheline write is completed in the
memory subsystem.
The cache access latency is stored in low 32bits of the sample type
PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT.
- The instruction latency starts by the dispatch of the load operation
for execution and lasts until completion of the instruction it belongs
to.
Add a new flag PMU_FL_INSTR_LATENCY to indicate the instruction
latency support. The instruction latency is stored in the bit 47:32
of the sample type PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT.
Extends the PERF_METRICS MSR to feature TMA method level 2 metrics. The
lower half of the register is the TMA level 1 metrics (legacy). The
upper half is also divided into four 8-bit fields for the new level 2
metrics. Expose all eight Topdown metrics events to user space.
The full description for the SPR features can be found at Intel
Architecture Instruction Set Extensions and Future Features
Programming Reference, 319433-041.

Intel Sapphire Rapids server will introduce 8 metrics events. Intel
Ice Lake only supports 4 metrics events. A perf tool user may mistakenly
use the unsupported events via RAW format on Ice Lake. The user can
still get a value from the unsupported Topdown metrics event once the
following Sapphire Rapids enabling patch is applied.
To enable the 8 metrics events on Intel Sapphire Rapids, the
INTEL_TD_METRIC_MAX has to be updated, which impacts the
is_metric_event(). The is_metric_event() is a generic function.
On Ice Lake, the newly added SPR metrics events will be mistakenly
accepted as metric events on creation. At runtime, the unsupported
Topdown metrics events will be updated.
Add a variable num_topdown_events in x86_pmu to indicate the available
number of the Topdown metrics event on the platform. Apply the number
into is_metric_event(). Only the supported Topdown metrics events
should be created as metrics events.
Apply the num_topdown_events in icl_update_topdown_event() as well. The
function can be reused by the following patch.

Starting with Arch Perfmon v5, the anythread filter on generic counters may be
deprecated. The current kernel was exporting the any filter without checking.
On Icelake, it means you could do cpu/event=0x3c,any/ even though the filter
does not exist. This patch corrects the problem by relying on the CPUID 0xa leaf
function to determine if anythread is supported or not as described in the
Intel SDM Vol3b 18.2.5.1 AnyThread Deprecation section.

IBS hardware with the OpCntExt feature gets a 7-bit wider internal
counter. Both the maximum and current count bitfields in the
IBS_OP_CTL register are extended to support reading and writing it.
No changes are necessary to the driver for handling the extra
contiguous current count bits (IbsOpCurCnt), as the driver already
passes through 32 bits of that field. However, the driver has to do
some extra bit manipulation when converting from a period to the
non-contiguous (although conveniently aligned) extra bits in the
IbsOpMaxCnt bitfield.
This decreases IBS Op interrupt overhead when the period is over
1,048,560 (0xffff0), which would previously activate the driver's
software counter. That threshold is now 134,217,712 (0x7fffff0).

Ice Lake supports the hardware TopDown metrics feature, which can free
up the scarce GP counters.
Update the event constraints for the metrics events. The metric counters
do not exist, which are mapped to a dummy offset. The sharing between
multiple users of the same metric without multiplexing is not allowed.
Implement set_topdown_event_period for Ice Lake. The values in
PERF_METRICS MSR are derived from the fixed counter 3. Both registers
should start from zero.
Implement update_topdown_event for Ice Lake. The metric is reported by
multiplying the metric (fraction) with slots. To maintain accurate
measurements, both registers are cleared for each update. The fixed
counter 3 should always be cleared before the PERF_METRICS.
Implement td_attr for the new metrics events and the new slots fixed
counter. Make them visible to the perf user tools.

Intro
=====
The TopDown Microarchitecture Analysis (TMA) Method is a structured
analysis methodology to identify critical performance bottlenecks in
out-of-order processors. Current perf has supported the method.
The method works well, but there is one problem. To collect the TopDown
events, several GP counters have to be used. If a user wants to collect
other events at the same time, the multiplexing probably be triggered,
which impacts the accuracy.
To free up the scarce GP counters, the hardware TopDown metrics feature
is introduced from Ice Lake. The hardware implements an additional
"metrics" register and a new Fixed Counter 3 that measures pipeline
"slots". The TopDown events can be calculated from them instead.
Events
======
The level 1 TopDown has four metrics. There is no event-code assigned to
the TopDown metrics. Four metric events are exported as separate perf
events, which map to the internal "metrics" counter register. Those
events do not exist in hardware, but can be allocated by the scheduler.
For the event mapping, a special 0x00 event code is used, which is
reserved for fake events. The metric events start from umask 0x10.
When setting up the metric events, they point to the Fixed Counter 3.
They have to be specially handled.
- Add the update_topdown_event() callback to read the additional metrics
MSR and generate the metrics.
- Add the set_topdown_event_period() callback to initialize metrics MSR
and the fixed counter 3.
- Add a variable n_metric_event to track the number of the accepted
metrics events. The sharing between multiple users of the same metric
without multiplexing is not allowed.
- Only enable/disable the fixed counter 3 when there are no other active
TopDown events, which avoid the unnecessary writing of the fixed
control register.
- Disable the PMU when reading the metrics event. The metrics MSR and
the fixed counter 3 are read separately. The values may be modified by
an NMI.
All four metric events don't support sampling. Since they will be
handled specially for event update, a flag PERF_X86_EVENT_TOPDOWN is
introduced to indicate this case.
The slots event can support both sampling and counting.
For counting, the flag is also applied.
For sampling, it will be handled normally as other normal events.
Groups
======
The slots event is required in a Topdown group.
To avoid reading the METRICS register multiple times, the metrics and
slots value can only be updated by slots event in a group.
All active slots and metrics events will be updated one time.
Therefore, the slots event must be before any metric events in a Topdown
group.
NMI
======
The METRICS related register may be overflow. The bit 48 of the STATUS
register will be set. If so, PERF_METRICS and Fixed counter 3 are
required to be reset. The patch also update all active slots and
metrics events in the NMI handler.
The update_topdown_event() has to read two registers separately. The
values may be modified by an NMI. PMU has to be disabled before calling
the function.
RDPMC
======
RDPMC is temporarily disabled. A later patch will enable it.

In the LBR call stack mode, LBR information is used to reconstruct a
call stack. To get the complete call stack, perf has to save/restore
all LBR registers during a context switch. Due to a large number of the
LBR registers, this process causes a high CPU overhead. To reduce the
CPU overhead during a context switch, use the XSAVES/XRSTORS
instructions.
Every XSAVE area must follow a canonical format: the legacy region, an
XSAVE header and the extended region. Although the LBR information is
only kept in the extended region, a space for the legacy region and
XSAVE header is still required. Add a new dedicated structure for LBR
XSAVES support.
Before enabling XSAVES support, the size of the LBR state has to be
sanity checked, because:
- the size of the software structure is calculated from the max number
of the LBR depth, which is enumerated by the CPUID leaf for Arch LBR.
The size of the LBR state is enumerated by the CPUID leaf for XSAVE
support of Arch LBR. If the values from the two CPUID leaves are not
consistent, it may trigger a buffer overflow. For example, a hypervisor
may unconsciously set inconsistent values for the two emulated CPUID.
- unlike other state components, the size of an LBR state depends on the
max number of LBRs, which may vary from generation to generation.
Expose the function xfeature_size() for the sanity check.
The LBR XSAVES support will be disabled if the size of the LBR state
enumerated by CPUID doesn't match with the size of the software
structure.
The XSAVE instruction requires 64-byte alignment for state buffers. A
new macro is added to reflect the alignment requirement. A 64-byte
aligned kmem_cache is created for architecture LBR.
Currently, the structure for each state component is maintained in
fpu/types.h. The structure for the new LBR state component should be
maintained in the same place. Move structure lbr_entry to fpu/types.h as
well for broader sharing.
Add dedicated lbr_save/lbr_restore functions for LBR XSAVES support,
which invokes the corresponding xstate helpers to XSAVES/XRSTORS LBR
information at the context switch when the call stack mode is enabled.
Since the XSAVES/XRSTORS instructions will be eventually invoked, the
dedicated functions is named with '_xsaves'/'_xrstors' postfix.

The hypervisor may request the perf subsystem to schedule a time window
to directly access the LBR records msrs for its own use. Normally, it would
create a guest LBR event with callstack mode enabled, which is scheduled
along with other ordinary LBR events on the host but in an exclusive way.
To avoid wasting a counter for the guest LBR event, the perf tracks its
hw->idx via INTEL_PMC_IDX_FIXED_VLBR and assigns it with a fake VLBR
counter with the help of new vlbr_constraint. As with the BTS event,
there is actually no hardware counter assigned for the guest LBR event.

The LBR records msrs are model specific. The perf subsystem has already
obtained the base addresses of LBR records based on the cpu model.
Therefore, an interface is added to allow callers outside the perf
subsystem to obtain these LBR information. It's useful for hypervisors
to emulate the LBR feature for guests with less code.

Family 19h introduces change in slice, core and thread specification in
its L3 Performance Event Select (ChL3PmcCfg) h/w register. The change is
incompatible with Family 17h's version of the register.
Introduce a new path in l3_thread_slice_mask() to do things differently
for Family 19h vs. Family 17h, otherwise the new hardware doesn't get
programmed correctly.
Instead of a linear core--thread bitmask, Family 19h takes an encoded
core number, and a separate thread mask. There are new bits that are set
for all cores and all slices, of which only the latter is used, since
the driver counts events for all slices on behalf of the specified CPU.
Also update amd_uncore_init() to base its L2/NB vs. L3/Data Fabric mode
decision based on Family 17h or above, not just 17h and 18h: the Family
19h Data Fabric PMC is compatible with the Family 17h DF PMC.

KVM_INTEL can be built for any CPU with compatible hardware support,

Note, the existing stub for perf_guest_get_msrs() is essentially dead

When counting dispatched micro-ops with cnt_ctl=1, in order to prevent
sample bias, IBS hardware preloads the least significant 7 bits of
current count (IbsOpCurCnt) with random values, such that, after the
interrupt is handled and counting resumes, the next sample taken
will be slightly perturbed.
The current count bitfield is in the IBS execution control h/w register,
alongside the maximum count field.
Currently, the IBS driver writes that register with the maximum count,
leaving zeroes to fill the current count field, thereby overwriting
the random bits the hardware preloaded for itself.
Fix the driver to actually retain and carry those random bits from the
read of the IBS control register, through to its write, instead of
overwriting the lower current count bits with zeroes.
Tested with:
perf record -c 100001 -e ibs_op/cnt_ctl=1/pp -a -C 0 taskset -c 0 <workload>

Tested on Family 15h and 17h machines.
Machines prior to family 10h Rev. C don't have the RDWROPCNT capability,
and have the IbsOpCurCnt bitfield reserved, so this patch shouldn't
affect their operation.
It is unknown why commit db98c5faf8cb ("perf/x86: Implement 64-bit
counter support for IBS") ignored the lower 4 bits of the IbsOpCurCnt
field; the number of preloaded random bits has always been 7, AFAICT.

Currently perf callchain doesn't work well with ORC unwinder
when sampling from trace point. We'll get useless in kernel callchain
like this:
perf 6429 [000] 22.498450: kmem:mm_page_alloc: page=0x176a17 pfn=1534487 order=0 migratetype=0 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL
ffffffffbe23e32e __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x22e (/lib/modules/5.1.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux)
7efdf7f7d3e8 __poll+0x18 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so)
5651468729c1 [unknown] (/usr/bin/perf)

7efdf7eaf413 __libc_start_main+0xf3 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so)
5541f689495641d7 [unknown] ([unknown])
The root cause is that, for trace point events, it doesn't provide a
real snapshot of the hardware registers. Instead perf tries to get
required caller's registers and compose a fake register snapshot
which suppose to contain enough information for start a unwinding.
However without CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, if failed to get caller's BP as the
frame pointer, so current frame pointer is returned instead. We get
a invalid register combination which confuse the unwinder, and end the
stacktrace early.
So in such case just don't try dump BP, and let the unwinder start
directly when the register is not a real snapshot. Use SP
as the skip mark, unwinder will skip all the frames until it meet
the frame of the trace point caller.
Tested with frame pointer unwinder and ORC unwinder, this makes perf
callchain get the full kernel space stacktrace again like this:

Add Icelake core PMU perf code, including constraint tables and the main
enable code.
Icelake expanded the generic counters to always 8 even with HT on, but a
range of events cannot be scheduled on the extra 4 counters.
Add new constraint ranges to describe this to the scheduler.
The number of constraints that need to be checked is larger now than
with earlier CPUs.
At some point we may need a new data structure to look them up more
efficiently than with linear search. So far it still seems to be
acceptable however.
Icelake added a new fixed counter SLOTS. Full support for it is added
later in the patch series.
The cache events table is identical to Skylake.
Compare to PEBS instruction event on generic counter, fixed counter 0
has less skid. Force instruction:ppp always in fixed counter 0.

Adaptive PEBS is a new way to report PEBS sampling information. Instead
of a fixed size record for all PEBS events it allows to configure the
PEBS record to only include the information needed. Events can then opt
in to use such an extended record, or stay with a basic record which
only contains the IP.
The major new feature is to support LBRs in PEBS record.
Besides normal LBR, this allows (much faster) large PEBS, while still
supporting callstacks through callstack LBR. So essentially a lot of
profiling can now be done without frequent interrupts, dropping the
overhead significantly.
The main requirement still is to use a period, and not use frequency
mode, because frequency mode requires reevaluating the frequency on each
overflow.
The floating point state (XMM) is also supported, which allows efficient
profiling of FP function arguments.
Introduce specific drain function to handle variable length records.
Use a new callback to parse the new record format, and also handle the
STATUS field now being at a different offset.
Add code to set up the configuration register. Since there is only a
single register, all events either get the full super set of all events,
or only the basic record.

Starting from Icelake, XMM registers can be collected in PEBS record.
But current code only output the pt_regs.
Add a new struct x86_perf_regs for both pt_regs and xmm_regs. The
xmm_regs will be used later to keep a pointer to PEBS record which has
XMM information.
XMM registers are 128 bit. To simplify the code, they are handled like
two different registers, which means setting two bits in the register
bitmap. This also allows only sampling the lower 64bit bits in XMM.
The index of XMM registers starts from 32. There are 16 XMM registers.
So all reserved space for regs are used. Remove REG_RESERVED.
Add PERF_REG_X86_XMM_MAX, which stands for the max number of all x86
regs including both GPRs and XMM.
Add REG_NOSUPPORT for 32bit to exclude unsupported registers.
Previous platforms can not collect XMM information in PEBS record.
Adding pebs_no_xmm_regs to indicate the unsupported platforms.
The common code still validates the supported registers. However, it
cannot check model specific registers, e.g. XMM. Add extra check in
x86_pmu_hw_config() to reject invalid config of regs_user and regs_intr.
The regs_user never supports XMM collection.
The regs_intr only supports XMM collection when sampling PEBS event on
icelake and later platforms.

perf_event_read_local() is the safest way to obtain measurements
associated with performance events. In some cases the overhead
introduced by perf_event_read_local() affects the measurements and the
use of rdpmcl() is needed. rdpmcl() requires the index
of the performance counter used so a helper is introduced to determine
the index used by a provided performance event.
The index used by a performance event may change when interrupts are
enabled. A check is added to ensure that the index is only accessed
with interrupts disabled. Even with this check the use of this counter
needs to be done with care to ensure it is queried and used within the
same disabled interrupts section.
This change introduces a new checkpatch warning:
CHECK: extern prototypes should be avoided in .h files
+extern int x86_perf_rdpmc_index(struct perf_event *event);
This warning was discussed and designated as a false positive in

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Some versions of Intel PT do not support tracing across VMXON, more
specifically, VMXON will clear TraceEn control bit and any attempt to
set it before VMXOFF will throw a #GP, which in the current state of
things will crash the kernel. Namely:
$ perf record -e intel_pt// kvm -nographic
on such a machine will kill it.
To avoid this, notify the intel_pt driver before VMXON and after
VMXOFF so that it knows when not to enable itself.

The basic idea is that it does not make sense to list all PEBS
events individually. The list is very long, sometimes outdated
and the hardware doesn't need it. If an event does not support
PEBS it will just not count, there is no security issue.
We need to only list events that something special, like
supporting load or store addresses.
This vastly simplifies the PEBS event selection. It also
speeds up the scheduling because the scheduler doesn't
have to walk as many constraints.
Bugs fixed:
- We do not allow setting forbidden flags with PEBS anymore
(SDM 18.9.4), except for the special cycle event.
This is done using a new constraint macro that also
matches on the event flags.
- Correct DataLA and load/store/na flags reporting on Haswell
[Requires a followon patch]
- We did not allow all PEBS events on Haswell:
We were missing some valid subevents in d1-d2 (MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.*,
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED_L3_HIT_RETIRED.*)
This includes the changes proposed by Stephane earlier and obsoletes
his patchkit (except for some changes on pre Sandy Bridge/Silvermont
CPUs)
I only did Sandy Bridge and Silvermont and later so far, mostly because these
are the parts I could directly confirm the hardware behavior with hardware
architects. Also I do not believe the older CPUs have any
missing events in their PEBS list, so there's no pressing
need to change them.
I did not implement the flag proposed by Peter to allow
setting forbidden flags. If really needed this could
be implemented on to of this patch.
v2: Fix broken store events on SNB/IVB (Stephane Eranian)
v3: More fixes. Rename some arguments (Stephane Eranian)
v4: List most Haswell events individually again to report
memory operation type correctly.
Add new flags to describe load/store/na for datala.

There are some new counter flags that need to be prevented
from being set on fixed counters, and allowed to be set
for generic counters.
Also we add support for the counter 2 constraint to handle
all raw events.

On AMD family 15h processors, there are 4 new performance
counters (in addition to 6 core performance counters) that can
be used for counting northbridge events (i.e. DRAM accesses).
Their bit fields are almost identical to the core performance
counters. However, unlike the core performance counters, these
MSRs are shared between multiple cores (that share the same
northbridge).
We will reuse the same code path as existing family 10h
northbridge event constraints handler logic to enforce
this sharing.

Adding a generic way to use __output_copy function with specific copy
function via DEFINE_PERF_OUTPUT_COPY macro.
Using this to add new __output_copy_user function, that provides output
copy from user pointers. For x86 the copy_from_user_nmi function is used
and __copy_from_user_inatomic for the rest of the architectures.
This new function will be used in user stack dump on sample, coming in
next patches.

Some PMUs don't provide a full register set for their sample,
specifically 'advanced' PMUs like AMD IBS and Intel PEBS which provide
'better' than regular interrupt accuracy.
In this case we use the interrupt regs as basis and over-write some
fields (typically IP) with different information.
The perf core however uses user_mode() to distinguish user/kernel
samples, user_mode() relies on regs->cs. If the interrupt skid pushed
us over a boundary the new IP might not be in the same domain as the
interrupt.
Commit ce5c1fe9a9e ("perf/x86: Fix USER/KERNEL tagging of samples")
tried to fix this by making the perf core use kernel_ip(). This
however is wrong (TM), as pointed out by Linus, since it doesn't allow
for VM86 and non-zero based segments in IA32 mode.
Therefore, provide a new helper to set the regs->ip field,
set_linear_ip(), which massages the regs into a suitable state
assuming the provided IP is in fact a linear address.
Also modify perf_instruction_pointer() and perf_callchain_user() to
deal with segments base offsets.

There is no need for keeping separate pmu structs. We can enable
amd_{get,put}_event_constraints() functions also for family 15h event.
The advantage is that there is only a single pmu struct for all AMD
cpus. This patch introduces functions to setup the pmu to enabe core
performance counters or counter constraints.
Also, cpuid checks are used instead of family checks where
possible. Thus, it enables the code independently of cpu families if
the feature flag is set.

Each IBS sample contains a linear address of the instruction that
caused the sample to trigger. This address is more precise than the
rip that was taken from the interrupt handler's stack. Update the rip
with that address. We use this in the next patch to implement
precise-event sampling on AMD systems using IBS.

This patch implements 64 bit counter support for IBS. The
sampling period is no longer limited to the hw counter width.
The functions perf_event_set_period() and
perf_event_try_update() can be used as generic functions. They
can replace similar code that is duplicate across architectures.

It turned out that a performance counter on AMD does not
count at all when the GO or HO bit is set in the control
register and SVM is disabled in EFER.
This patch works around this issue by masking out the HO bit
in the performance counter control register when SVM is not
enabled.
The GO bit is not touched because it is only set when the
user wants to count in guest-mode only. So when SVM is
disabled the counter should not run at all and the
not-counting is the intended behaviour.
