Two x86 headers got modified in this merge window: arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h To support x86 UMIP feature, to add new AVX instructions, plus cleanups. None of those changes have an effect on tooling, so do a plain copy.

Test case 21 (Number of exit events of a simple workload) fails on s390x. The reason is the invalid sample frequency supplied for this test. On s390x the minimum sample frequency is much higher (see output of /proc/service_levels). Supply a save sample frequency value for s390x to fix this. The value will be adjusted by the s390x CPUMF frequency convertion function to a value well below the sysctl kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate value.

Certain systems are designed to have sparse/discontiguous nodes. On such systems, 'perf bench numa' hangs, shows wrong number of nodes and shows values for non-existent nodes.

The 'perf test' case "probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping" fails on s390x. The reason is the 'realpath /lib64/ld*.so.* | uniq' line which returns 2 libraries: root@s35lp76 shell]# realpath /lib64/ld*.so.* | uniq /usr/lib64/ld-2.26.so /usr/lib64/ld_pre_smc.so.1.0.1 [root@s35lp76 shell] This output makes the "perf probe" command lines invalid. Use ldd tool to find out the libraries required by "bash" and check if symbol "inet_pton" is part of the "libc" library. Some distros do not have a /lib64 directory. I have also added a check for the existence of an IPv6 network interface before it is being used. Committer changes: We can't really use ldd for libc, as in some systems, such as x86_64, it has hardlinks and then ldd sees one and the kernel the other, so grep for libc in /proc/self/maps to get the one we'll receive from PERF_RECORD_MMAP. Thomas checked this change and acked it.

This 'perf test' case fails on s390x. The 'touch' command on s390x uses the 'openat' system call to open the file named on the command line: [root@s35lp76 perf]# perf probe -l probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72@fs/namei.c with pathname) [root@s35lp76 perf]# perf trace -e open touch /tmp/abc 0.400 ( 0.015 ms): touch/27542 open(filename: /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3 [root@s35lp76 perf]# There is no 'open' system call for file '/tmp/abc'. Instead the 'openat' system call is used: [root@s35lp76 perf]# strace touch /tmp/abc execve("/usr/bin/touch", ["touch", "/tmp/abc"], 0x3ffd547ec98 /* 30 vars */) = 0 [...] openat(AT_FDCWD, "/tmp/abc", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK, 0666) = 3 [...] On s390x the 'egrep' command does not find a matching pattern and returns an error. Fix this for s390x create a platform dependent command line to enable the 'perf probe' call to listen to the 'openat' system call and get the expected output.

When processing PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO several perf_evsel entries will be synthesized and inserted into session->evlist, eventually ending in perf_script.tool.sample(), which ends up calling builtin-script.c's process_event(), that expects evsel->priv to be a perf_evsel_script object with a valid FILE pointer in fp. So we need to intercept the processing of PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO and then setup evsel->priv for these newly created perf_evsel instances, do it to fix the segfault in process_event() trying to use a NULL for that FILE pointer.

The Intel PMU event aliases have a implicit period= specifier to set the default period. Unfortunately this breaks overriding these periods with -c or -F, because the alias terms look like they are user specified to the internal parser, and user specified event qualifiers override the command line options. Track that they are coming from aliases by adding a "weak" state to the term. Any weak terms don't override command line options. I only did it for -c/-F for now, I think that's the only case that's broken currently.

When we use an initial delay, e.g.: 'perf record --delay 1000', we do not enable the events until that delay has passed after we started the workload, including the tracking event, i.e. the one for which we have attr.mmap, etc, enabled to ask the kernel to generate the PERF_RECORD_{MMAP,COMM,EXEC} metadata events that will then allow us to resolve addresses in samples to the map, dso and symbol. There will be a shadow that even synthesizing samples won't cover, i.e. the workload that we start and other processes forking while we wait for the initial delay to expire. So use a dummy event to be the tracking one and make it be enabled on exec.

The evsel->idx field is used mainly to access the right bucket in per-event arrays such as the annotation ones, but also to set evsel->tracking, that in turn will decide what of the events will ask for PERF_RECORD_{MMAP,COMM,EXEC} to be generated, i.e. which perf_event_attr will have its mmap, etc fields set. When we were adding the "dummy" event using perf_evlist__add_dummy() we were not setting it correctly, which could result in multiple tracking events. Now that I'll try using a dummy event to be the tracking one when using 'perf record --delay', i.e. when we process the --delay setting we may already have the evlist set up, like with: perf record -e cycles,instructions --delay 1000 ./workload We will need to add a "dummy" event, then reset evsel->tracking for the first event, "cycles", and set it instead to the dummy one, and also setting its attr.enable_on_exec, so that we get the PERF_RECORD_MMAP, etc metadata events while waiting to enable the explicitely requested events, so lets get this straight and set the right evsel->idx.

Even though aperfmperf_snapshot_khz() caches the samples.khz value to return if called again in a sufficiently short time, its caller, arch_freq_get_on_cpu(), still uses smp_call_function_single() to run it which may allow user space to trigger an IPI storm by reading from the scaling_cur_freq cpufreq sysfs file in a tight loop. To avoid that, move the decision on whether or not to return the cached samples.khz value to arch_freq_get_on_cpu(). This change was part of commit 941f5f0f ("x86: CPU: Fix up "cpu MHz" in /proc/cpuinfo"), but it was not the reason for the revert and it remains applicable.

Pull x86 APIC updates from Thomas Gleixner: "This update provides a major overhaul of the APIC initialization and vector allocation code: - Unification of the APIC and interrupt mode setup which was scattered all over the place and was hard to follow. This also distangles the timer setup from the APIC initialization which brings a clear separation of functionality. Great detective work from Dou Lyiang! - Refactoring of the x86 vector allocation mechanism. The existing code was based on nested loops and rather convoluted APIC callbacks which had a horrible worst case behaviour and tried to serve all different use cases in one go. This led to quite odd hacks when supporting the new managed interupt facility for multiqueue devices and made it more or less impossible to deal with the vector space exhaustion which was a major roadblock for server hibernation. Aside of that the code dealing with cpu hotplug and the system vectors was disconnected from the actual vector management and allocation code, which made it hard to follow and maintain. Utilizing the new bitmap matrix allocator core mechanism, the new allocator and management code consolidates the handling of system vectors, legacy vectors, cpu hotplug mechanisms and the actual allocation which needs to be aware of system and legacy vectors and hotplug constraints into a single consistent entity. This has one visible change: The support for multi CPU targets of interrupts, which is only available on a certain subset of CPUs/APIC variants has been removed in favour of single interrupt targets. A proper analysis of the multi CPU target feature revealed that there is no real advantage as the vast majority of interrupts end up on the CPU with the lowest APIC id in the set of target CPUs anyway. That change was agreed on by the relevant folks and allowed to simplify the implementation significantly and to replace rather fragile constructs like the vector cleanup IPI with straight forward and solid code. Furthermore this allowed to cleanly separate the allocation details for legacy, normal and managed interrupts: * Legacy interrupts are not longer wasting 16 vectors unconditionally * Managed interrupts have now a guaranteed vector reservation, but the actual vector assignment happens when the interrupt is requested. It's guaranteed not to fail. * Normal interrupts no longer allocate vectors unconditionally when the interrupt is set up (IO/APIC init or MSI(X) enable). The mechanism has been switched to a best effort reservation mode. The actual allocation happens when the interrupt is requested. Contrary to managed interrupts the request can fail due to vector space exhaustion, but drivers must handle a fail of request_irq() anyway. When the interrupt is freed, the vector is handed back as well. This solves a long standing problem with large unconditional vector allocations for a certain class of enterprise devices which prevented server hibernation due to vector space exhaustion when the unused allocated vectors had to be migrated to CPU0 while unplugging all non boot CPUs. The code has been equipped with trace points and detailed debugfs information to aid analysis of the vector space" * 'x86-apic-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (60 commits) x86/vector/msi: Select CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_RESERVATION_MODE PCI/MSI: Set MSI_FLAG_MUST_REACTIVATE in core code genirq: Add config option for reservation mode x86/vector: Use correct per cpu variable in free_moved_vector() x86/apic/vector: Ignore set_affinity call for inactive interrupts x86/apic: Fix spelling mistake: "symmectic" -> "symmetric" x86/apic: Use dead_cpu instead of current CPU when cleaning up ACPI/init: Invoke early ACPI initialization earlier x86/vector: Respect affinity mask in irq descriptor x86/irq: Simplify hotplug vector accounting x86/vector: Switch IOAPIC to global reservation mode x86/vector/msi: Switch to global reservation mode x86/vector: Handle managed interrupts proper x86/io_apic: Reevaluate vector configuration on activate() iommu/amd: Reevaluate vector configuration on activate() iommu/vt-d: Reevaluate vector configuration on activate() x86/apic/msi: Force reactivation of interrupts at startup time x86/vector: Untangle internal state from irq_cfg x86/vector: Compile SMP only code conditionally x86/apic: Remove unused callbacks ...

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Yet another big pile of changes: - More year 2038 work from Arnd slowly reaching the point where we need to think about the syscalls themself. - A new timer function which allows to conditionally (re)arm a timer only when it's either not running or the new expiry time is sooner than the armed expiry time. This allows to use a single timer for multiple timeout requirements w/o caring about the first expiry time at the call site. - A new NMI safe accessor to clock real time for the printk timestamp work. Can be used by tracing, perf as well if required. - A large number of timer setup conversions from Kees which got collected here because either maintainers requested so or they simply got ignored. As Kees pointed out already there are a few trivial merge conflicts and some redundant commits which was unavoidable due to the size of this conversion effort. - Avoid a redundant iteration in the timer wheel softirq processing. - Provide a mechanism to treat RTC implementations depending on their hardware properties, i.e. don't inflict the write at the 0.5 seconds boundary which originates from the PC CMOS RTC to all RTCs. No functional change as drivers need to be updated separately. - The usual small updates to core code clocksource drivers.
