perf python: Remove dependency on 'machine' methods
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.
The problem:
[root@zoo ~]# perf test -v python
17: Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 6853
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: machine__resolve_kernel_addr
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems: FAILED!
[root@zoo ~]#
Fix it by requiring this function to receive the resolver as a
parameter, just like pevent_register_function_resolver(), i.e. do
not explicitely refer to an object file not included in
tools/perf/util/python-ext-sources.

perf: Add PERF_RECORD_SWITCH to indicate context switches
There are already two events for context switches, namely the tracepoint
sched:sched_switch and the software event context_switches.
Unfortunately neither are suitable for use by non-privileged users for
the purpose of synchronizing hardware trace data (e.g. Intel PT) to the
context switch.
Tracepoints are no good at all for non-privileged users because they
need either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid <= -1.
On the other hand, kernel software events need either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or
/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid <= 1.
Now many distributions do default perf_event_paranoid to 1 making
context_switches a contender, except it has another problem (which is
also shared with sched:sched_switch) which is that it happens before
perf schedules events out instead of after perf schedules events in.
Whereas a privileged user can see all the events anyway, a
non-privileged user only sees events for their own processes, in other
words they see when their process was scheduled out not when it was
scheduled in. That presents two problems to use the event:
1. the information comes too late, so tools have to look ahead in the
event stream to find out what the current state is
2. if they are unlucky tracing might have stopped before the
context-switches event is recorded.
This new PERF_RECORD_SWITCH event does not have those problems
and it also has a couple of other small advantages.
It is easier to use because it is an auxiliary event (like mmap, comm
and task events) which can be enabled by setting a single bit. It is
smaller than sched:sched_switch and easier to parse.
To make the event useful for privileged users also, if the
context is cpu-wide then the event record will be
PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE which is the same as
PERF_RECORD_SWITCH except it also provides the next or
previous pid/tid.

We were storing a copy of kallsyms inside perf.data file so that we
could resolve kernel addresses to function (start, name, mod) tuples,
but that can be achieved using the symbol resolving routines we have
in symbols.c, and that are used elsewhere in tools/perf.
So, do just like 'perf trace' did and ask libtraceevent to use perf's

The next step is to just skip whatever kallsyms data is embedded in
older perf.data files and finally to stop storing kallsyms in the perf
data file, as the 20-bytes build-id stored in perf.data's header is
enough to find out the right symtab (be it ELF, kcore, kallsyms, etc) to

perf record: Allow filtering perf's pid via --exclude-perf
This patch allows 'perf record' to exclude events issued by perf itself
by '--exclude-perf' option.
Before this patch, when doing something like:
# perf record -a -e syscalls:sys_enter_write <cmd>
One could easily get result like this:
# /tmp/perf report --stdio
...
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ ....... .................. ....................
#
99.99% perf libpthread-2.18.so [.] __write_nocancel
0.01% ls libc-2.18.so [.] write
0.01% sshd libc-2.18.so [.] write
...
Where most events are generated by perf itself.
A shell trick can be done to filter perf itself out:
# cat << EOF > ./tmp
> #!/bin/sh
> exec perf record -e ... --filter="common_pid != \$\$" -a sleep 10
> EOF
# chmod a+x ./tmp
# ./tmp
However, doing so is user unfriendly.
This patch extracts evsel iteration framework introduced by patch 'perf
record: Apply filter to all events in a glob matching' into
foreach_evsel_in_last_glob(), and makes exclude_perf() function append
new filter expression to each evsel selected by a '-e' selector.
To avoid losing filters if user pass '--filter' after '--exclude-perf',
this patch uses perf_evsel__append_filter() in both case, instead of
perf_evsel__set_filter() which removes old filter. As a side effect, now
it is possible to use multiple '--filter' option for one selector. They
are combinded with '&&'.

perf record: Apply filter to all events in a glob matching
There is an old problem in perf's filter applying which first posted at
Sep. 2014 at https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/9/944 that, if passing
multiple events in a glob matching expression in cmdline then add
'--filter' after them, the filter will be applied on only the last one.
For example:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null &
[1] 464
# perf record -a -e 'syscalls:sys_*_read' --filter 'common_pid != 464' sleep 0.1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.239 MB perf.data (2094 samples) ]
# perf report --stdio | tee
...
# Samples: 2K of event 'syscalls:sys_enter_read'
# Event count (approx.): 2092
...
# Samples: 2 of event 'syscalls:sys_exit_read'
# Event count (approx.): 2
...
In this example, filter only applied on 'syscalls:sys_exit_read', and
there's no way to set filter for ''syscalls:sys_enter_read'.
This patch adds a 'cmdline_group_boundary' for 'struct evsel', and
apply filter on all events between two boundary marks.
After applying this patch:
# perf record -a -e 'syscalls:sys_*_read' --filter 'common_pid != 464' sleep 0.1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.031 MB perf.data (3 samples) ]
# perf report --stdio | tee
...
# Samples: 1 of event 'syscalls:sys_enter_read'
# Event count (approx.): 1
...
# Samples: 2 of event 'syscalls:sys_exit_read'
# Event count (approx.): 2

x86/fpu, sched: Dynamically allocate 'struct fpu'
The FPU rewrite removed the dynamic allocations of 'struct fpu'.
But, this potentially wastes massive amounts of memory (2k per
task on systems that do not have AVX-512 for instance).
Instead of having a separate slab, this patch just appends the
space that we need to the 'task_struct' which we dynamically
allocate already. This saves from doing an extra slab
allocation at fork().
The only real downside here is that we have to stick everything
and the end of the task_struct. But, I think the
BUILD_BUG_ON()s I stuck in there should keep that from being too
fragile.

fsnotify: fix oops in fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group_flags()
fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group_flags() can race with
fsnotify_destroy_marks() so when fsnotify_destroy_mark_locked() drops
mark_mutex, a mark from the list iterated by
fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group_flags() can be freed and we dereference free
memory in the loop there.
Fix the problem by keeping mark_mutex held in
fsnotify_destroy_mark_locked(). The reason why we drop that mutex is that
we need to call a ->freeing_mark() callback which may acquire mark_mutex
again. To avoid this and similar lock inversion issues, we move the call
to ->freeing_mark() callback to the kthread destroying the mark.

To fix this, change accesses to the contents of the buffer so they go

enabled, disable to update parameters
The directory name is correct but %lx has been interpreted in the
internal item name, displayed here in the error message used by
store_dev_name() in drivers/net/netconsole.c.
To fix this, update every caller of config_item_set_name to use "%s"
when operating on untrusted input.
This issue was found using -Wformat-security gcc flag, once a __printf
attribute has been added to config_item_set_name().

include, lib: add __printf attributes to several function prototypes
Using __printf attributes helps to detect several format string issues
at compile time (even though -Wformat-security is currently disabled in
Makefile). For example it can detect when formatting a pointer as a
number, like the issue fixed in commit
a3fa71c40f18 ("wl18xx: show
rx_frames_per_rates as an array as it really is"), or when the arguments
do not match the format string, c.f. for example commit
5ce1aca81435
("reiserfs: fix __RASSERT format string").
To prevent similar bugs in the future, add a __printf attribute to every
function prototype which needs one in include/linux/ and lib/. These
functions were mostly found by using gcc's -Wsuggest-attribute=format
flag.

s390/hugetlb: add hugepages_supported define
On s390 we only can enable hugepages if the underlying hardware/hypervisor
also does support this. Common code now would assume this to be
signaled by setting HPAGE_SHIFT to 0. But on s390, where we only
support one hugepage size, there is a link between HPAGE_SHIFT and
pageblock_order.
So instead of setting HPAGE_SHIFT to 0, we will implement the check for
the hardware capability.

revert "s390/mm: make hugepages_supported a boot time decision"
Heiko noticed that the current check for hugepage support on s390 is a
little bit too harsh as systems which do not support will crash.
The reason is that pageblock_order can now get negative when we set
HPAGE_SHIFT to 0. To avoid all this and to avoid opening another can of

to simply allow architectures to define their own hugepages_supported().

x86/entry/64, x86/nmi/64: Add CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY NMI testing code
It turns out to be rather tedious to test the NMI nesting code.
Make it easier: add a new CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY option that causes
the NMI handler to pre-emptively unmask NMIs.
With this option set, errors in the repeat_nmi logic or failures
to detect that we're in a nested NMI will result in quick panics
under perf (especially if multiple counters are running at high
frequency) instead of requiring an unusual workload that
generates page faults or breakpoints inside NMIs.
I called it CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY instead of CONFIG_DEBUG_NMI_ENTRY

This isn't quite true. A malicious userspace program can point

happen while RSP is still pointing at the NMI stack.
Fix it with a sneaky trick. Set DF in the region of code that
the RSP check is intended to detect. IRET will clear DF
atomically.
( Note: other than paravirt, there's little need for all this
complexity. We could check RIP instead of RSP. )
