Add a new "ARB" uncore PMU that is used to monitor the uncore queue arbiter. This is useful to measure uncore queue occupancy and similar statistics. The registers all have the same format as the existing CBOX PMU. Also move the event constraints from the CBOX to ARB. The 0x80+ events are ARB events and cannot be scheduled on a CBOX PMU.

Change xol_add_vma() to use _install_special_mapping(), this way we can name the vma installed by uprobes. Currently it looks like private anonymous mapping, this is confusing and complicates the debugging. With this change /proc/$pid/maps reports "[uprobes]". As a side effect this will cause core dumps to include the XOL vma and I think this is good; this can help to debug the problem if the app crashed because it was probed. Signed-off-by:

Oleg Nesterov authored
install_special_mapping(pages) expects that "pages" is the zero- terminated array while xol_add_vma() passes &area->page, this means that special_mapping_fault() can wrongly use the next member in xol_area (vaddr) as "struct page *". Fortunately, this area is not expandable so pgoff != 0 isn't possible (modulo bugs in special_mapping_vmops), but still this does not look good. Signed-off-by:

The previous change documents that cleanup_return_instances() can't always detect the dead frames, the stack can grow. But there is one special case which imho worth fixing: arch_uretprobe_is_alive() can return true when the stack didn't actually grow, but the next "call" insn uses the already invalidated frame. Test-case: #include <stdio.h> #include <setjmp.h> jmp_buf jmp; int nr = 1024; void func_2(void) { if (--nr == 0) return; longjmp(jmp, 1); } void func_1(void) { setjmp(jmp); func_2(); } int main(void) { func_1(); return 0; } If you ret-probe func_1() and func_2() prepare_uretprobe() hits the MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH limit and "return" from func_2() is not reported. When we know that the new call is not chained, we can do the more strict check. In this case "sp" points to the new ret-addr, so every frame which uses the same "sp" must be dead. The only complication is that arch_uretprobe_is_alive() needs to know was it chained or not, so we add the new RP_CHECK_CHAIN_CALL enum and change prepare_uretprobe() to pass RP_CHECK_CALL only if !chained. Note: arch_uretprobe_is_alive() could also re-read *sp and check if this word is still trampoline_vaddr. This could obviously improve the logic, but I would like to avoid another copy_from_user() especially in the case when we can't avoid the false "alive == T" positives.

arch/x86 doesn't care (so far), but as Pratyush Anand pointed out other architectures might want why arch_uretprobe_is_alive() was called and use different checks depending on the context. Add the new argument to distinguish 2 callers. Tested-by:

Oleg Nesterov authored
Change prepare_uretprobe() to flush the !arch_uretprobe_is_alive() return_instance's. This is not needed correctness-wise, but can help to avoid the failure caused by MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH. Note: in this case arch_uretprobe_is_alive() can be false positive, the stack can grow after longjmp(). Unfortunately, the kernel can't 100% solve this problem, but see the next patch. Tested-by:

Oleg Nesterov authored
Test-case: #include <stdio.h> #include <setjmp.h> jmp_buf jmp; void func_2(void) { longjmp(jmp, 1); } void func_1(void) { if (setjmp(jmp)) return; func_2(); printf("ERR!! I am running on the caller's stack\n"); } int main(void) { func_1(); return 0; } fails if you probe func_1() and func_2() because handle_trampoline() assumes that the probed function should must return and hit the bp installed be prepare_uretprobe(). But in this case func_2() does not return, so when func_1() returns the kernel uses the no longer valid return_instance of func_2(). Change handle_trampoline() to unwind ->return_instances until we know that the next chain is alive or NULL, this ensures that the current chain is the last we need to report and free. Alternatively, every return_instance could use unique trampoline_vaddr, in this case we could use it as a key. And this could solve the problem with sigaltstack() automatically. But this approach needs more changes, and it puts the "hard" limit on MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH. Plus it can not solve another problem partially fixed by the next patch. Note: this change has no effect on !x86, the arch-agnostic version of arch_uretprobe_is_alive() just returns "true". TODO: as documented by the previous change, arch_uretprobe_is_alive() can be fooled by sigaltstack/etc. Tested-by: -
Oleg Nesterov authored
Add the x86 specific version of arch_uretprobe_is_alive() helper. It returns true if the stack frame mangled by prepare_uretprobe() is still on stack. So if it returns false, we know that the probed function has already returned. We add the new return_instance->stack member and change the generic code to initialize it in prepare_uretprobe, but it should be equally useful for other architectures. TODO: this assumes that the probed application can't use multiple stacks (say sigaltstack). We will try to improve this logic later. Tested-by: -
Oleg Nesterov authored
Add the new "weak" helper, arch_uretprobe_is_alive(), used by the next patches. It should return true if this return_instance is still valid. The arch agnostic version just always returns true. The patch exports "struct return_instance" for the architectures which want to override this hook. We can also cleanup prepare_uretprobe() if we pass the new return_instance to arch_uretprobe_hijack_return_addr(). Tested-by:

Oleg Nesterov authored
No functional changes, preparation. Add the new helper, find_next_ret_chain(), which finds the first !chained entry and returns its ->next. Yes, it is suboptimal. We probably want to turn ->chained into ->start_of_this_chain pointer and avoid another loop. But this needs the boring changes in dup_utask(), so lets do this later. Change the main loop in handle_trampoline() to unwind the stack until ri is equal to the pointer returned by this new helper. Tested-by:

1. It doesn't make sense to continue if handle_trampoline() fails, change handle_swbp() to always return after this call. 2. Turn pr_warn() into uprobe_warn(), and change handle_trampoline() to send SIGILL on failure. It is pointless to return to user mode with the corrupted instruction_pointer() which we can't restore.

Currently the command line option settings beats the per event period settings: With no global settings, we get per-event configuration: $ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' sleep 1 $ perf evlist -v ... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 20000 ... With 'c' option period setup, we get 'c' option value: $ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' -c 1000 sleep 1 $ perf evlist -v ... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 1000 ... This patch makes the per-event settings overload the global 'c' option setup: $ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' -c 1000 sleep 1 $ perf evlist -v ... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 20000 ... I think the making the per-event settings to overload any other config makes more sense than current state. However it breaks the current 'period' term handling, which might cause some noise.. so let's see ;-). Also fixing parse event tests with the new behaviour. Signed-off-by: -

The semantic associated in tools/perf/ with foo__delete(instance) is to release all resources referenced by 'instance' members and then release the memory for 'instance' itself. The perf_session_env__delete() function isn't doing this, it just does the first part, but the space used by 'instance' itself isn't freed, as it is embedded in a larger structure, that will be freed at other stage. For these cases we se foo__exit(), i.e. the usage is: void foo__delete(foo) { if (foo) { foo__exit(foo); free(foo); } } But when we have something like: struct bar { struct foo foo; . . . } Then we can't really call foo__delete(&bar.foo), we must have this instead: void bar__exit(bar) { foo__exit(&bar.foo); /* free other bar-> resources */ } void bar__delete(bar) { if (bar) { bar__exit(bar); free(bar); } } So just rename perf_session_env__delete() to perf_session_env__exit().

To not sample, what we want are just the PERF_RECORD_ lifetime events for threads, using the default, PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE + PERF_COUNT_HW_CYCLES and freq=1 (the default), makes perf reenable irq_vectors:local_timer_entry, disabling nohz, not good for some use cases where all we want is to get notifications when threads comes and goes...

The python binding still doesn't provide symbol resolving facilities, but the recent addition of the trace_event__register_resolver() function made it add as a dependency the machine__resolve_kernel_addr() method, that in turn drags all the symbol resolving code.
