In perf_rotate_context(), when the first cpu flexible event fail to
schedule, cpu_rotate is 1, while cpu_event is NULL. Since cpu_event is
NULL, perf_rotate_context will _NOT_ call cpu_ctx_sched_out(), thus
cpuctx->ctx.is_active will have EVENT_FLEXIBLE set. Then, the next
perf_event_sched_in() will skip all cpu flexible events because of the
EVENT_FLEXIBLE bit.
In the next call of perf_rotate_context(), cpu_rotate stays 1, and
cpu_event stays NULL, so this process repeats. The end result is, flexible
events on this cpu will not be scheduled (until another event being added
to the cpuctx).
Here is an easy repro of this issue. On Intel CPUs, where ref-cycles
could only use one counter, run one pinned event for ref-cycles, one
flexible event for ref-cycles, and one flexible event for cycles. The
flexible ref-cycles is never scheduled, which is expected. However,
because of this issue, the cycles event is never scheduled either.
$ perf stat -e ref-cycles:D,ref-cycles,cycles -C 5 -I 1000
time counts unit events
1.000152973 15,412,480 ref-cycles:D
1.000152973 <not counted> ref-cycles (0.00%)
1.000152973 <not counted> cycles (0.00%)
2.000486957 18,263,120 ref-cycles:D
2.000486957 <not counted> ref-cycles (0.00%)
2.000486957 <not counted> cycles (0.00%)
To fix this, when the flexible_active list is empty, try rotate the
first event in the flexible_groups. Also, rename ctx_first_active() to
ctx_event_to_rotate(), which is more accurate.

Switch perf_event_open() syscall from it's own copying

Pull kernel lockdown mode from James Morris:
"This is the latest iteration of the kernel lockdown patchset, from
Matthew Garrett, David Howells and others.
From the original description:
This patchset introduces an optional kernel lockdown feature,
intended to strengthen the boundary between UID 0 and the kernel.
When enabled, various pieces of kernel functionality are restricted.
Applications that rely on low-level access to either hardware or the
kernel may cease working as a result - therefore this should not be
enabled without appropriate evaluation beforehand.
The majority of mainstream distributions have been carrying variants
of this patchset for many years now, so there's value in providing a
doesn't meet every distribution requirement, but gets us much closer
to not requiring external patches.
There are two major changes since this was last proposed for mainline:
- Separating lockdown from EFI secure boot. Background discussion is
covered here: https://lwn.net/Articles/751061/
- Implementation as an LSM, with a default stackable lockdown LSM
module. This allows the lockdown feature to be policy-driven,
rather than encoding an implicit policy within the mechanism.
The new locked_down LSM hook is provided to allow LSMs to make a
policy decision around whether kernel functionality that would allow
tampering with or examining the runtime state of the kernel should be
permitted.
The included lockdown LSM provides an implementation with a simple
policy intended for general purpose use. This policy provides a coarse
level of granularity, controllable via the kernel command line:
lockdown={integrity|confidentiality}
Enable the kernel lockdown feature. If set to integrity, kernel features
that allow userland to modify the running kernel are disabled. If set to
confidentiality, kernel features that allow userland to extract
confidential information from the kernel are also disabled.
This may also be controlled via /sys/kernel/security/lockdown and
overriden by kernel configuration.
New or existing LSMs may implement finer-grained controls of the
lockdown features. Refer to the lockdown_reason documentation in
include/linux/security.h for details.
The lockdown feature has had signficant design feedback and review
across many subsystems. This code has been in linux-next for some
weeks, with a few fixes applied along the way.
Stephen Rothwell noted that commit 9d1f8be5cf ("bpf: Restrict bpf
when kernel lockdown is in confidentiality mode") is missing a
Signed-off-by from its author. Matthew responded that he is providing

"Timers and timekeeping updates:
- A large overhaul of the posix CPU timer code which is a preparation
for moving the CPU timer expiry out into task work so it can be
properly accounted on the task/process.
An update to the bogus permission checks will come later during the
merge window as feedback was not complete before heading of for
travel.
- Switch the timerqueue code to use cached rbtrees and get rid of the
homebrewn caching of the leftmost node.
- Consolidate hrtimer_init() + hrtimer_init_sleeper() calls into a
single function
- Implement the separation of hrtimers to be forced to expire in hard
interrupt context even when PREEMPT_RT is enabled and mark the
affected timers accordingly.
- Implement a mechanism for hrtimers and the timer wheel to protect
RT against priority inversion and live lock issues when a (hr)timer
which should be canceled is currently executing the callback.
Instead of infinitely spinning, the task which tries to cancel the
timer blocks on a per cpu base expiry lock which is held and
released by the (hr)timer expiry code.
- Enable the Hyper-V TSC page based sched_clock for Hyper-V guests
resulting in faster access to timekeeping functions.
- Updates to various clocksource/clockevent drivers and their device

In some cases, ordinary (non-AUX) events can generate data for AUX events.
For example, PEBS events can come out as records in the Intel PT stream
instead of their usual DS records, if configured to do so.
One requirement for such events is to consistently schedule together, to
ensure that the data from the "AUX output" events isn't lost while their
corresponding AUX event is not scheduled. We use grouping to provide this
guarantee: an "AUX output" event can be added to a group where an AUX event
is a group leader, and provided that the former supports writing to the
latter.

So far, we tried to disallow grouping exclusive events for the fear of
complications they would cause with moving between contexts. Specifically,
moving a software group to a hardware context would violate the exclusivity
rules if both groups contain matching exclusive events.
This attempt was, however, unsuccessful: the check that we have in the
perf_event_open() syscall is both wrong (looks at wrong PMU) and
insufficient (group leader may still be exclusive), as can be illustrated
by running:
$ perf record -e '{intel_pt//,cycles}' uname
$ perf record -e '{cycles,intel_pt//}' uname
ultimately successfully.
Furthermore, we are completely free to trigger the exclusivity violation
by:
perf -e '{cycles,intel_pt//}' -e '{intel_pt//,instructions}'
even though the helpful perf record will not allow that, the ABI will.
The warning later in the perf_event_open() path will also not trigger, because
it's also wrong.
Fix all this by validating the original group before moving, getting rid
of broken safeguards and placing a useful one to perf_install_in_context().

Which puts the lie to the the comment on perf_event_free_task():
'unexposed, unused context' not so much.
Which is a 'fun' confluence of fail; copy_process() doing an
unconditional free_task() and not respecting refcounts, and perf having
creative locking. In particular:
82d94856fa ("perf/core: Fix lock inversion between perf,trace,cpuhp")
seems to have overlooked this 'fun' parade.
Solve it by using the fact that detached events still have a reference
count on their (previous) context. With this perf_event_free_task()
can detect when events have escaped and wait for their destruction.

cgroups, nr_events is the total count of events for all cgroups and
nr_active will not include events in a cgroup other than the current
task's. This makes rotation appear necessary for cgroups when it is not.
Add a perf_event_context flag that is set when rotation is necessary.
Clear the flag during sched_out and set it when a flexible sched_in
fails due to resources.

perf_event_open() limits the sample_period to 63 bits. See:
0819b2e30c ("perf: Limit perf_event_attr::sample_period to 63 bits")
Make ioctl() consistent with it.
Also on PowerPC, negative sample_period could cause a recursive

perf_sample_regs_user() uses 'current->mm' to test for the presence of
userspace, but this is insufficient, consider use_mm().
A better test is: '!(current->flags & PF_KTHREAD)', exec() clears
PF_KTHREAD after it sets the new ->mm but before it drops to userspace
for the first time.
Possibly obsoletes: bf05fc25f2 ("powerpc/perf: Fix oops when kthread execs user process")

Adding attr_update attribute group into pmu, to allow

This will allow us to update "events" or "format"
directories with attributes that depend on various
HW conditions.
For example having group_format_extra group that updates
"format" directory only if pmu version is 2 and higher:
static umode_t
exra_is_visible(struct kobject *kobj, struct attribute *attr, int i)
{
return x86_pmu.version >= 2 ? attr->mode : 0;
}
static struct attribute_group group_format_extra = {

Currently, non-privileged user could only use uprobe with
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1
However, setting perf_event_paranoid to -1 leaks other users' processes to
non-privileged uprobes.
To introduce proper permission control of uprobes, we are building the
following system:
A daemon with CAP_SYS_ADMIN is in charge to create uprobes via tracefs;
Users asks the daemon to create uprobes;
Then user can attach uprobe only to processes owned by the user.
This patch allows non-privileged user to attach uprobe to processes owned
by the user.
The following example shows how to use uprobe with non-privileged user.
This is based on Brendan's blog post [1]
1. Create uprobe with root:
sudo perf probe -x 'readline%return +0($retval):string'
2. Then non-root user can use the uprobe as:
perf record -vvv -e probe_bash:readline__return -p <pid> sleep 20

The following recent commit:
c60f83b813 ("perf, pt, coresight: Fix address filters for vmas with non-zero offset")
changes the address filtering logic to communicate filter ranges to the PMU driver
via a single address range object, instead of having the driver do the final bit of
math.
That change forgets to take into account kernel filters, which are not calculated
the same way as DSO based filters.
Fix that by passing the kernel filters the same way as file-based filters.
This doesn't require any additional changes in the drivers.

Thomas-Mich Richter reported he triggered a WARN()ing from event_function_local()
on his s390. The problem boils down to:
CPU-A CPU-B
perf_event_overflow()
perf_event_disable_inatomic()
@pending_disable = 1
irq_work_queue();
sched-out
event_sched_out()
@pending_disable = 0
sched-in
perf_event_overflow()
perf_event_disable_inatomic()
@pending_disable = 1;
irq_work_queue(); // FAILS
irq_work_run()
perf_pending_event()
if (@pending_disable)
perf_event_disable_local(); // WHOOPS
The problem exists in generic, but s390 is particularly sensitive
because it doesn't implement arch_irq_work_raise(), nor does it call
irq_work_run() from it's PMU interrupt handler (nor would that be
sufficient in this case, because s390 also generates
perf_event_overflow() from pmu::stop). Add to that the fact that s390
is a virtual architecture and (virtual) CPU-A can stall long enough
for the above race to happen, even if it would self-IPI.
Adding a irq_work_sync() to event_sched_in() would work for all hardare
PMUs that properly use irq_work_run() but fails for software PMUs.
Instead encode the CPU number in @pending_disable, such that we can
tell which CPU requested the disable. This then allows us to detect
the above scenario and even redirect the IPI to make up for the failed
queue.

On mmap(), perf_events generates a RECORD_MMAP record and then checks
which events are interested in this record. There are currently 2
versions of mmap records: RECORD_MMAP and RECORD_MMAP2. MMAP2 is larger.
The event configuration controls which version the user level tool
accepts.
If the event->attr.mmap2=1 field then MMAP2 record is returned. The
perf_event_mmap_output() takes care of this. It checks attr->mmap2 and
corrects the record fields before putting it in the sampling buffer of
the event. At the end the function restores the modified MMAP record
fields.
The problem is that the function restores the size but not the type.
Thus, if a subsequent event only accepts MMAP type, then it would
instead receive an MMAP2 record with a size of MMAP record.
This patch fixes the problem by restoring the record type on exit.

Pull rdma updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
"This has been a slightly more active cycle than normal with ongoing
core changes and quite a lot of collected driver updates.
- Various driver fixes for bnxt_re, cxgb4, hns, mlx5, pvrdma, rxe
- A new data transfer mode for HFI1 giving higher performance
- Significant functional and bug fix update to the mlx5
On-Demand-Paging MR feature
- A chip hang reset recovery system for hns
- Change mm->pinned_vm to an atomic64
- Update bnxt_re to support a new 57500 chip
- A sane netlink 'rdma link add' method for creating rxe devices and
fixing the various unregistration race conditions in rxe's
unregister flow
- Allow lookup up objects by an ID over netlink
- Various reworking of the core to driver interface:
- drivers should not assume umem SGLs are in PAGE_SIZE chunks
- ucontext is accessed via udata not other means
- start to make the core code responsible for object memory
allocation
- drivers should convert struct device to struct ib_device via a
helper
- drivers have more tools to avoid use after unregister problems"

Currently, the address range calculation for file-based filters works as
long as the vma that maps the matching part of the object file starts
from offset zero into the file (vm_pgoff==0). Otherwise, the resulting
filter range would be off by vm_pgoff pages. Another related problem is
that in case of a partially matching vma, that is, a vma that matches
part of a filter region, the filter range size wouldn't be adjusted.
Fix the arithmetics around address filter range calculations, taking
into account vma offset, so that the entire calculation is done before
the filter configuration is passed to the PMU drivers instead of having
those drivers do the final bit of arithmetics.

When a child event is allocated in the inherit_event() path, the VMA
based filter offsets are not copied from the parent, even though the
address space mapping of the new task remains the same, which leads to
no trace for the new task until exec.

The reason is that while event init code does several checks
for BTS events and prevents several unwanted config bits for
BTS event (like precise_ip), the PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD allows
to create BTS event without those checks being done.
Following sequence will cause the crash:
If we create an 'almost' BTS event with precise_ip and callchains,
and it into a BTS event it will crash the perf_prepare_sample()
function because precise_ip events are expected to come
in with callchain data initialized, but that's not the
case for intel_pmu_drain_bts_buffer() caller.
Adding a check_period callback to be called before the period
is changed via PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD. It will deny the change
if the event would become BTS. Plus adding also the limit_period
check as well.

Taking a sleeping lock to _only_ increment a variable is quite the
overkill, and pretty much all users do this. Furthermore, some drivers
(ie: infiniband and scif) that need pinned semantics can go to quite
some trouble to actually delay via workqueue (un)accounting for pinned
pages when not possible to acquire it.
By making the counter atomic we no longer need to hold the mmap_sem and
can simply some code around it for pinned_vm users. The counter is 64-bit
such that we need not worry about overflows such as rdma user input
controlled from userspace.

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
counters with the following properties:
- counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
- a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
- once counter reaches zero, its further
increments aren't allowed
- counter schema uses basic atomic operations
(set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)
Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.
The variable ring_buffer.aux_refcount is used as pure reference counter.
Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.
** Important note for maintainers:
Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c
have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic
counterparts. Please check Documentation/core-api/refcount-vs-atomic.rst
for more information.
Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides
enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in
some rare cases it might matter.
Please double check that you don't have some undocumented
memory guarantees for this variable usage.
For the ring_buffer.aux_refcount it might make a difference
in following places:
- perf_aux_output_begin(): increment in refcount_inc_not_zero() only
guarantees control dependency on success vs. fully ordered
atomic counterpart
- rb_free_aux(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only
provides RELEASE ordering and ACQUIRE ordering + control dependency
on success vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart
