Before this patch libbpf always do feature check even when cleaning. For example: $ cd kernel/tools/lib/bpf $ make Auto-detecting system features: ... libelf: [ on ] ... bpf: [ on ] CC libbpf.o CC bpf.o LD libbpf-in.o LINK libbpf.a LINK libbpf.so $ make clean CLEAN libbpf CLEAN core-gen $ make clean Auto-detecting system features: ... libelf: [ on ] ... bpf: [ on ] CLEAN libbpf CLEAN core-gen $ Although the first 'make clean' doesn't show feature check result, it still does the check. No output because check result is similar to FEATURE-DUMP.libbpf. This patch uses same method as perf to turn off feature checking when 'make clean'.

Sometimes passing variables to tools/build is dangerous. For example, on my platform there is a gcc problem (gcc 4.8.1): It passes the stackprotector-all feature check: $ gcc -fstack-protector-all -c ./test.c $ echo $? 0 But requires LDFLAGS support if separate compiling and linking: $ gcc -fstack-protector-all -c ./test.c $ gcc ./test.o ./test.o: In function `main': test.c:(.text+0xb): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_guard' test.c:(.text+0x21): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_guard' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status $ gcc -fstack-protector-all ./test.o $ echo $? 0 $ gcc ./test.o -lssp $ echo $? 0 $ In this environment building perf throws an error: $ make BUILD: Doing 'make -j24' parallel build config/Makefile:344: No libunwind found.

Since fixdep is a small host side tool, we should keep its CFLAGS/LDFLAGS simple and clean. This patch clears the CFLAGS and LDFLAGS passed when building fixdep, so such gcc problem won't block the perf build process. Signed-off-by: -

The commit 05c8d802 ("perf probe: Fix to free temporal Dwarf_Frame") tried to fix the memory leak of Dwarf_Frame, but it released the frame at wrong point. Since the dwarf_frame_cfa(frame, &pf->fb_ops, &nops) can return an address inside the frame data structure to pf->fb_ops, we can not release the frame before using pf->fb_ops. This reverts the commit and releases the frame afterwards (right before returning from call_probe_finder) correctly. Reported-and-Tested-by:

When a long value is read on 32 bit machines for 64 bit output, the parsing needs to change "%lu" into "%llu", as the value is read natively. Unfortunately, if "%llu" is already there, the code will add another "l" to it and fail to parse it properly. Signed-off-by:

The perf configuration file contains many variables to change various aspects of each of its tools, including output, disk usage, etc. But looking at the state of configuration is difficult and there's no documentation about config variables except for the variables in perfconfig.example exist. So this patch adds a 'perf-config' command with a '--list' option. perf config [options] display current perf config variables. # perf config -l | --list Signed-off-by: -

The earlier constraint fix for Broadwell CYCLE_ACTIVITY.* forced umask 8 to counter 2. For this it used UEVENT, to match the complete umask. The event list for Broadwell has an additional STALLS_L1D_PENDIND event that uses umask 8, but also sets other bits in the umask. The earlier strict umask match didn't handle this case. Add a new UBIT_EVENT constraint macro that only matches the specified bits in the umask. Then use that macro to handle CYCLE_ACTIVITY.* on Broadwell. The documented event also uses cmask, but there's no need to let the event scheduler know about the cmask, as the scheduling restriction is only tied to the umask. Reported-by:

This patch stops Intel PT logging and saves its registers in memory before kdump is started. This feature is needed to prevent Intel PT from overwriting its log buffer after panic, and saved registers are needed to find the last position where Intel PT wrote data. After the crash dump is captured by kdump, users can retrieve the log buffer from the vmcore and use it to investigate bad kernel behavior. Signed-off-by:

This patch add a function for external components to stop Intel PT. Basically this function is used when kernel panic occurs. When it is called, the intel_pt driver disables Intel PT and saves its registers using pt_event_stop(), which is also used by pmu.stop handler. This function stops Intel PT on the CPU where it is working, therefore users of it need to call it for each CPU to stop all logging. Signed-off-by:

With LBRv5 reading the extra LBR flags like mispredict, TSX, cycles is not free anymore, as it has moved to a separate MSR. For callstack mode we don't need any of this information; so we can avoid the unnecessary MSR read. Add flags to the perf interface where perf record can request not collecting this information. Add branch_sample_type flags for CYCLES and FLAGS. It's a bit unusual for branch_sample_types to be negative (disable), not positive (enable), but since the legacy ABI reported the flags we need some form of explicit disabling to avoid breaking the ABI. After we have the flags the x86 perf code can keep track if any users need the flags. If noone needs it the information is not collected. This cuts down the cost of LBR callstack on Skylake significantly. Profiling a kernel build with LBR call stack the average run time of the PMI handler drops by 43%. Signed-off-by:

Change the perf user stack walking to use the new __copy_from_user_nmi(), and split each access into word sized transfer sizes. This allows to inline the complete access and optimize it all into a single load. The main advantage is that this avoids the overhead of double page faults. When normal copy_from_user() fails it reexecutes the copy to compute an accurate number of non copied bytes. This leads to executing the expensive page fault twice. While walking stacks having a fault at some point is relatively common (typically when some part of the program isn't compiled with frame pointers), so this is a large overhead. With the optimized copies we avoid this problem because they only do all accesses once. And of course they're much faster too when the access does not fault because they're just single instructions instead of complex function calls. While profiling a kernel build with -g, the patch brings down the average time of the PMI handler from 966ns to 552ns (-43%). Signed-off-by:

Add a inlined __ variant of copy_from_user_nmi. The inlined variant allows the user to: - batch the access_ok() check for multiple accesses - avoid having a pagefault_disable/enable() on every access if the caller already ensures disabled page faults due to its context. - get all the optimizations in copy_*_user() for small constant sized transfers It is just a define to __copy_from_user_inatomic().

It is okay to not hold the RCU read lock when we know we hold the ctx->lock. This patch makes sure this property holds.

Adjust kmem_cache_alloc_bulk API before we have any real users. Adjust API to return type 'int' instead of previously type 'bool'. This is done to allow future extension of the bulk alloc API. A future extension could be to allow SLUB to stop at a page boundary, when specified by a flag, and then return the number of objects. The advantage of this approach, would make it easier to make bulk alloc run without local IRQs disabled. With an approach of cmpxchg "stealing" the entire c->freelist or page->freelist. To avoid overshooting we would stop processing at a slab-page boundary. Else we always end up returning some objects at the cost of another cmpxchg. To keep compatible with future users of this API linking against an older kernel when using the new flag, we need to return the number of allocated objects with this API change. Signed-off-by:

Initial implementation missed support for kmem cgroup support in kmem_cache_free_bulk() call, add this. If CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not enabled, the compiler should be smart enough to not add any asm code. Incoming bulk free objects can belong to different kmem cgroups, and object free call can happen at a later point outside memcg context. Thus, we need to keep the orig kmem_cache, to correctly verify if a memcg object match against its "root_cache" (s->memcg_params.root_cache). Signed-off-by:

The call slab_pre_alloc_hook() interacts with kmemgc and is not allowed to be called several times inside the bulk alloc for loop, due to the call to memcg_kmem_get_cache(). This would result in hitting the VM_BUG_ON in __memcg_kmem_get_cache. As suggested by Vladimir Davydov, change slab_post_alloc_hook() to be able to handle an array of objects. A subtle detail is, loop iterator "i" in slab_post_alloc_hook() must have same type (size_t) as size argument. This helps the compiler to easier realize that it can remove the loop, when all debug statements inside loop evaluates to nothing. Note, this is only an issue because the kernel is compiled with GCC option: -fno-strict-overflow In slab_alloc_node() the compiler inlines and optimizes the invocation of slab_post_alloc_hook(s, flags, 1, &object) by removing the loop and access object directly.

This change focus on improving the speed of object freeing in the "slowpath" of kmem_cache_free_bulk. The calls slab_free (fastpath) and __slab_free (slowpath) have been extended with support for bulk free, which amortize the overhead of the (locked) cmpxchg_double. To use the new bulking feature, we build what I call a detached freelist. The detached freelist takes advantage of three properties: 1) the free function call owns the object that is about to be freed, thus writing into this memory is synchronization-free. 2) many freelist's can co-exist side-by-side in the same slab-page each with a separate head pointer. 3) it is the visibility of the head pointer that needs synchronization. Given these properties, the brilliant part is that the detached freelist can be constructed without any need for synchronization. The freelist is constructed directly in the page objects, without any synchronization needed. The detached freelist is allocated on the stack of the function call kmem_cache_free_bulk. Thus, the freelist head pointer is not visible to other CPUs. All objects in a SLUB freelist must belong to the same slab-page. Thus, constructing the detached freelist is about matching objects that belong to the same slab-page. The bulk free array is scanned is a progressive manor with a limited look-ahead facility. Kmem debug support is handled in call of slab_free(). Notice kmem_cache_free_bulk no longer need to disable IRQs. This only slowed down single free bulk with approx 3 cycles.

Make it possible to free a freelist with several objects by adjusting API of slab_free() and __slab_free() to have head, tail and an objects counter (cnt). Tail being NULL indicate single object free of head object. This allow compiler inline constant propagation in slab_free() and slab_free_freelist_hook() to avoid adding any overhead in case of single object free. This allows a freelist with several objects (all within the same slab-page) to be free'ed using a single locked cmpxchg_double in __slab_free() and with an unlocked cmpxchg_double in slab_free(). Object debugging on the free path is also extended to handle these freelists. When CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is enabled it will also detect if objects don't belong to the same slab-page. These changes are needed for the next patch to bulk free the detached freelists it introduces and constructs. Micro benchmarking showed no performance reduction due to this change, when debugging is turned off (compiled with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG). Signed-off-by:
