      Pull perf fixes from Ingo Molnar:
       "I'd like to apologize for this very late pull request: I was dithering
        through the week whether to send the fixes, and then yesterday Jiri's
        crash fix for a regression introduced in this cycle clearly marked
        perf/urgent as 'must merge now'.
      
        Most of the commits are tooling fixes, plus there's three kernel fixes
        via four commits:
      
          - race fix in the Intel PEBS code
      
          - fix an AUX bug and roll back a previous attempt
      
          - fix AMD family 17h generic HW cache-event perf counters
      
        The largest diffstat contribution comes from the AMD fix - a new event
        table is introduced, which is a fairly low risk change but has a large
        linecount"

      perf/x86/intel: Fix race in intel_pmu_disable_event() · 6f55967a
      Jiri Olsa authored
      New race in x86_pmu_stop() was introduced by replacing the
      atomic __test_and_clear_bit() of cpuc->active_mask by separate
      test_bit() and __clear_bit() calls in the following commit:
      
        3966c3fe ("x86/perf/amd: Remove need to check "running" bit in NMI handler")
      
      The race causes panic for PEBS events with enabled callchains:
      
        BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000
        ...
        RIP: 0010:perf_prepare_sample+0x8c/0x530
        Call Trace:

      The event is configured to make samples from PEBS drain code,
      but when it's disabled, we'll go through NMI path instead,
      where data->callchain will not get allocated and we'll crash:
      
                x86_pmu_stop
                  test_bit(hwc->idx, cpuc->active_mask)
                  intel_pmu_disable_event(event)
                  {
                    ...
                    intel_pmu_pebs_disable(event);
                    ...
      
      EVENT OVERFLOW ->  <NMI>
                           intel_pmu_handle_irq
                             handle_pmi_common
         TEST PASSES ->        test_bit(bit, cpuc->active_mask))
                                 perf_event_overflow
                                   perf_prepare_sample
                                   {
                                     ...
                                     if (!(sample_type & __PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN_EARLY))
                                           data->callchain = perf_callchain(event, regs);
      
               CRASH ->              size += data->callchain->nr;
                                   }
                         </NMI>
                    ...
                    x86_pmu_disable_event(event)
                  }
      
                  __clear_bit(hwc->idx, cpuc->active_mask);
      
      Fixing this by disabling the event itself before setting
      off the PEBS bit.
