After 0161028b ("perf/core: Change the default paranoia level to 2") 'perf stat' fails for users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN, so just use 'perf_evsel__fallback()' to have the same behaviour as 'perf record', i.e. set perf_event_attr.exclude_kernel to 1.

We were showing a hardcoded default value for the kernel.perf_event_paranoid sysctl, now that it became more paranoid (1 -> 2 [1]), this would need to be updated, instead show the current value: [acme@jouet linux]$ perf record ls Error: You may not have permission to collect stats.

At the end of process_filter(), collapse_tree() was changed to update the parg parameter, but the reassignment after the call wasn't removed. What happens is that the "current_op" gets modified and freed and parg is assigned to the new allocated argument. But after the call to collapse_tree(), parg is assigned again to the just freed "current_op", and this causes the tool to crash. The current_op variable must also be assigned to NULL in case of error, otherwise it will cause it to be free()ed twice. Signed-off-by:

When the PMU driver reports a truncated AUX record, it effectively means that there is no more usable room in the event's AUX buffer (even though there may still be some room, so that perf_aux_output_begin() doesn't take action). At this point the consumer still has to be woken up and the event has to be disabled, otherwise the event will just keep spinning between perf_aux_output_begin() and perf_aux_output_end() until its context gets unscheduled. Again, for cpu-wide events this means never, so once in this condition, they will be forever losing data. Fix this by disabling the event and waking up the consumer in case of a truncated AUX record.

Currently, the PT driver always sets the PMI bit one region (page) before the STOP region so that we can wake up the consumer before we run out of room in the buffer and have to disable the event. However, we also need an interrupt in the last output region, so that we actually get to disable the event (if no more room from new data is available at that point), otherwise hardware just quietly refuses to start, but the event is scheduled in and we end up losing trace data till the event gets removed. For a cpu-wide event it is even worse since there may not be any re-scheduling at all and no chance for the ring buffer code to notice that its buffer is filled up and the event needs to be disabled (so that the consumer can re-enable it when it finishes reading the data out). In other words, all the trace data will be lost after the buffer gets filled up. This patch makes PT also generate a PMI when the last output region is full. Reported-by:

The commit b97511c5 ("perf tools: Add overhead/overhead_children keys defaults via string") moved initialization of column headers but it missed to check the sort__mode. As 'perf diff' doesn't call perf_hpp__init(), the setup_overhead() also should not be called.

Josef reported that the uncore driver trips over with CONFIG_SMP=n because x86_max_cores is 16 instead of 12. The reason is, that for SMP=n the extended topology detection is a NOOP and the cache leaf is used to determine the number of cores. That's wrong in two aspects: 1) The cache leaf enumerates the maximum addressable number of cores in the package, which is obviously not correct 2) UP has no business with topology bits at all.

Merge fixes from Andrew Morton: "2 fixes" * emailed patches from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>: zsmalloc: fix zs_can_compact() integer overflow Revert "proc/base: make prompt shell start from new line after executing "cat /proc/$pid/wchan""
-
Sergey Senozhatsky authored
zs_can_compact() has two race conditions in its core calculation: unsigned long obj_wasted = zs_stat_get(class, OBJ_ALLOCATED) - zs_stat_get(class, OBJ_USED); 1) classes are not locked, so the numbers of allocated and used objects can change by the concurrent ops happening on other CPUs 2) shrinker invokes it from preemptible context Depending on the circumstances, thus, OBJ_ALLOCATED can become less than OBJ_USED, which can result in either very high or negative `total_scan' value calculated later in do_shrink_slab(). do_shrink_slab() has some logic to prevent those cases: vmscan: shrink_slab: zs_shrinker_scan+0x0/0x28 [zsmalloc] negative objects to delete nr=-62 vmscan: shrink_slab: zs_shrinker_scan+0x0/0x28 [zsmalloc] negative objects to delete nr=-62 vmscan: shrink_slab: zs_shrinker_scan+0x0/0x28 [zsmalloc] negative objects to delete nr=-64 vmscan: shrink_slab: zs_shrinker_scan+0x0/0x28 [zsmalloc] negative objects to delete nr=-62 vmscan: shrink_slab: zs_shrinker_scan+0x0/0x28 [zsmalloc] negative objects to delete nr=-62 vmscan: shrink_slab: zs_shrinker_scan+0x0/0x28 [zsmalloc] negative objects to delete nr=-62 However, due to the way `total_scan' is calculated, not every shrinker->count_objects() overflow can be spotted and handled. To demonstrate the latter, I added some debugging code to do_shrink_slab() (x86_64) and the results were: vmscan: OVERFLOW: shrinker->count_objects() == -1 [18446744073709551615] vmscan: but total_scan > 0: 92679974445502 vmscan: resulting total_scan: 92679974445502 [..] vmscan: OVERFLOW: shrinker->count_objects() == -1 [18446744073709551615] vmscan: but total_scan > 0: 22634041808232578 vmscan: resulting total_scan: 22634041808232578 Even though shrinker->count_objects() has returned an overflowed value, the resulting `total_scan' is positive, and, what is more worrisome, it is insanely huge. This value is getting used later on in shrinker->scan_objects() loop: while (total_scan >= batch_size || total_scan >= freeable) { unsigned long ret; unsigned long nr_to_scan = min(batch_size, total_scan); shrinkctl->nr_to_scan = nr_to_scan; ret = shrinker->scan_objects(shrinker, shrinkctl); if (ret == SHRINK_STOP) break; freed += ret; count_vm_events(SLABS_SCANNED, nr_to_scan); total_scan -= nr_to_scan; cond_resched(); } `total_scan >= batch_size' is true for a very-very long time and 'total_scan >= freeable' is also true for quite some time, because `freeable < 0' and `total_scan' is large enough, for example, 22634041808232578. The only break condition, in the given scheme of things, is shrinker->scan_objects() == SHRINK_STOP test, which is a bit too weak to rely on, especially in heavy zsmalloc-usage scenarios. To fix the issue, take a pool stat snapshot and use it instead of racy zs_stat_get() calls.

Revert also because the patch is inconsistent - it adds a newline at the end of only the '0' wchan, and does not add a newline when /proc/$PID/wchan contains a symbol name. eg. $ ps -eo pid,stat,wchan,comm PID STAT WCHAN COMMAND ... 1189 S - dbus-launch 1190 Ssl 0 dbus-daemon 1198 Sl 0 lightdm 1299 Ss ep_pol systemd 1301 S - (sd-pam) 1304 Ss wait sh Signed-off-by:

gcc support for __builtin_bswap16() was supposedly added for powerpc in gcc 4.6, and was then later added for other architectures in gcc 4.8. However, Stephen Rothwell reported that attempting to use it on powerpc in gcc 4.6 fails with: lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: initializer element is not constant lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: (near initialization for 'decpair[0]') lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: initializer element is not constant lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: (near initialization for 'decpair[1]') ... I'm not entirely sure what those errors mean, but I don't see them on gcc 4.8. So let's consider gcc 4.8 to be the official starting point for __builtin_bswap16(). Arnd Bergmann adds: "I found the commit in gcc-4.8 that replaced the powerpc-specific implementation of __builtin_bswap16 with an architecture-independent one. Apparently the powerpc version (gcc-4.6 and 4.7) just mapped to the lhbrx/sthbrx instructions, so it ended up not being a constant, though the intent of the patch was mainly to add support for the builtin to x86: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52624 has the patch that went into gcc-4.8 and more information."

Saeed Mahameed says: ==================== net/mlx5e: Kconfig fixes for VxLAN Reposting to net the build errors fixes posted by Arnd last week. Originally Arnd posted those fixes to net-next, while the issue is also seen in net. For net-next a different approach is required for fixing the issue as VXLAN and Device Drivers are no longer dependent, but there is no harm for those fixes to get into net-next. Optionally, once net is merged into net-next we can Revert "net/mlx5e: make VXLAN support conditional" as the CONFIG_MLX5_CORE_EN_VXLAN will no longer be required. Applied on top: 28892865 ('mlxsw: spectrum: Add missing rollback in flood configuration') ==================== Signed-off-by:

VXLAN can be disabled at compile-time or it can be a loadable module while mlx5 is built-in, which leads to a link error: drivers/net/built-in.o: In function `mlx5e_create_netdev': ntb_netdev.c:(.text+0x106de4): undefined reference to `vxlan_get_rx_port' This avoids the link error and makes the vxlan code optional, like the other ethernet drivers do as well.

This reverts commit 69976fb1. We cannot select VXLAN when IPv4 support is disabled, that just gives us additional build errors, including: warning: (MLX5_CORE_EN) selects VXLAN which has unmet direct dependencies (NETDEVICES && NET_CORE && INET) In file included from ../drivers/net/vxlan.c:36:0: include/net/udp_tunnel.h: In function 'udp_tunnel_handle_offloads': include/net/udp_tunnel.h:112:9: error: implicit declaration of function 'iptunnel_handle_offloads' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] return iptunnel_handle_offloads(skb, type); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'm sending a proper fix for the original bug in a separate patch.

The MACsec standard mentions a key identifier for each key, but doesn't specify anything about it, so I arbitrarily chose 64 bits. IEEE 802.1X-2010 specifies MKA (MACsec Key Agreement), and defines the key identifier to be 128 bits (96 bits "member identifier" + 32 bits "key number"). Signed-off-by:

The Nouveau maintainers would like to follow and review mmiotrace changes as well, so create a separate entry for that code. The high level bits are living in the tracing code, the low level bits in the x86 code. Acked-by:
