The change enabling event detection: commit b41f1cec91c37eeea6fdb15effbfa24ea0a5536b Author: Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@lge.com> Date: Tue Aug 27 11:41:53 2013 +0900 perf list: Skip unsupported events uses the following code in tools/perf/util/parse-events.c: struct perf_event_attr attr = { .type = type, .config = config, .disabled = 1, .exclude_kernel = 1, }; On ARM machines pre-dating the Cortex-A15 this doesn't work, as these machines don't support .exclude_kernel. So starting with 3.12 "perf list" does not report any hardware events at all on older machines (seen on Rasp-Pi, Pandaboard, Beagleboard, etc). This version of the patch makes changes suggested by Namhyung Kim to check for EACCESS and retry (instead of just dropping the exclude_kernel) so we can properly handle machines where /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid is set to 2.

| * perf probe: Do not add offset twice to uprobe addressMasami Hiramatsu2014-02-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix perf-probe not to add offset value twice to uprobe probe address when post processing. The tevs[i].point.address struct member is the address of symbol+offset, but current perf-probe adjusts the point.address by adding the offset. As a result, the probe address becomes symbol+offset+offset. This may cause unexpected code corruption. Urgent fix is needed. Without this fix: --- # ./perf probe -x ./perf dso__load_vmlinux+4 # ./perf probe -l probe_perf:dso__load_vmlinux (on 0x000000000006d2b8) # nm ./perf.orig | grep dso__load_vmlinux\$ 000000000046d0a0 T dso__load_vmlinux --- You can see the given offset is 3 but the actual probed address is dso__load_vmlinux+8. With this fix: --- # ./perf probe -x ./perf dso__load_vmlinux+4 # ./perf probe -l probe_perf:dso__load_vmlinux (on 0x000000000006d2b4) --- Now the problem is fixed.

* | perf/x86/p4: Block PMIs on init to prevent a stream of unkown NMIsDon Zickus2014-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A bunch of unknown NMIs have popped up on a Pentium4 recently when booting into a kdump kernel. This was exposed because the watchdog timer went from 60 seconds down to 10 seconds (increasing the ability to reproduce this problem). What is happening is on boot up of the second kernel (the kdump one), the previous nmi_watchdogs were enabled on thread 0 and thread 1. The second kernel only initializes one cpu but the perf counter on thread 1 still counts. Normally in a kdump scenario, the other cpus are blocking in an NMI loop, but more importantly their local apics have the performance counters disabled (iow LVTPC is masked). So any counters that fire are masked and never get through to the second kernel. However, on a P4 the local apic is shared by both threads and thread1's PMI (despite being configured to only interrupt thread1) will generate an NMI on thread0. Because thread0 knows nothing about this NMI, it is seen as an unknown NMI. This would be fine because it is a kdump kernel, strange things happen what is the big deal about a single unknown NMI. Unfortunately, the P4 comes with another quirk: clearing the overflow bit to prevent a stream of NMIs. This is the problem. The kdump kernel can not execute because of the endless NMIs that happen. To solve this, I instrumented the p4 perf init code, to walk all the counters and zero them out (just like a normal reset would). Now when the counters go off, they do not generate anything and no unknown NMIs are seen. I tested this on a P4 we have in our lab. After two or three crashes, I could normally reproduce the problem. Now after 10 crashes, everything continues to boot correctly.

* | perf/x86/p4: Fix counter corruption when using lots of perf groupsDon Zickus2014-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On a P4 box stressing perf with: ./perf record -o perf.data ./perf stat -v ./perf bench all it was noticed that a slew of unknown NMIs would pop out rather quickly. Painfully debugging this ancient platform, led me to notice cross cpu counter corruption. The P4 machine is special in that it has 18 counters, half are used for cpu0 and the other half is for cpu1 (or all 18 if hyperthreading is disabled). But the splitting of the counters has to be actively managed by the software. In this particular bug, one of the cpu0 specific counters was being used by cpu1 and caused all sorts of random unknown nmis. I am not entirely sure on the corruption path, but what happens is: o perf schedules a group with p4_pmu_schedule_events() o inside p4_pmu_schedule_events(), it notices an hwc pointer is being reused but for a different cpu, so it 'swaps' the config bits and returns the updated 'assign' array with a _new_ index. o perf schedules another group with p4_pmu_schedule_events() o inside p4_pmu_schedule_events(), it notices an hwc pointer is being reused (the same one as above) but for the _same_ cpu [BUG!!], so it updates the 'assign' array to use the _old_ (wrong cpu) index because the _new_ index is in an earlier part of the 'assign' array (and hasn't been committed yet). o perf commits the transaction using the wrong index and corrupts the other cpu The [BUG!!] is because the 'hwc->config' is updated but not the 'hwc->idx'. So the check for 'p4_should_swap_ts()' is correct the first time around but incorrect the second time around (because hwc->config was updated in between). I think the spirit of perf was to not modify anything until all the transactions had a chance to 'test' if they would succeed, and if so, commit atomically. However, P4 breaks this spirit by touching the hwc->config element. So my fix is to continue the un-perf like breakage, by assigning hwc->idx to -1 on swap to tell follow up group scheduling to find a new index. Of course if the transaction fails rolling this back will be difficult, but that is not different than how the current code works. :-) And I wasn't sure how much effort to cleanup the code I should do for a platform that is almost 10 years old by now. Hence the lazy fix.

When combined with options -fprofile-arcs and -O2, this flag causes gcc to generate broken constructor code. As a result, a 64 bit x86 kernel compiled with CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y prints message "gcov: could not create file" and runs into sproadic BUGs during boot. The gcc people indicate that these kinds of problems are endemic when using ad hoc calling conventions. It is therefore best to treat any file compiled with ad hoc calling conventions as an isolated environment and avoid things like profiling or coverage analysis, since those subsystems assume a "normal" calling conventions. This patch avoids the bug by excluding lib/hweight.o from coverage profiling.

However, the initialization may fail if the extents are not aligned to section boundary (64M). The symptom of this bug is an early boot failure in pfn_to_page(), as it tries to access NODE_DATA(__nid) using index from an unitialized element of the physnode_map[] array. While the bug is always present, it is more likely to be hit in kdump kernels on large machines, because: 1. The memory map for a kdump kernel is specified as exactmap, and exactmap is more likely to be unaligned. 2. Large reservations are more likely to span across a 64M boundary.

The problem was related to the tlb_flushall_shift tuning for IvyBridge which was altered. The problem is that it is not clear if the tuning values for each CPU family is correct as the methodology used to tune the values is unclear. This patch uses a conservative tlb_flushall_shift value for all CPU families except IvyBridge so the decision can be revisited if any regression is found as a result of this change. IvyBridge is an exception as testing with one methodology determined that the value of 2 is acceptable. Details are in the changelog for the patch "x86: mm: Change tlb_flushall_shift for IvyBridge". One important aspect of this to watch out for is Xen. The original commit log mentioned large performance gains on Xen. It's possible Xen is more sensitive to this value if it flushes small ranges of pages more frequently than workloads on bare metal typically do.

This patch simply changes the default balance point between a local and global flush for IvyBridge.

The patch addresses the problem. Next was a tlbflush microbenchmark written by Alex Shi at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=133727348217113 . It measures access costs while the TLB is being flushed. The expectation is that if there are always full TLB flushes that the benchmark would suffer and it benefits from range flushing There are 320 iterations of the test per thread count. The number of entries is randomly selected with a min of 1 and max of 512. To ensure a reasonably even spread of entries, the full range is broken up into 8 sections and a random number selected within that section. iteration 1, random number between 0-64 iteration 2, random number between 64-128 etc This is still a very weak methodology. When you do not know what are typical ranges, random is a reasonable choice but it can be easily argued that the opimisation was for smaller ranges and an even spread is not representative of any workload that matters. To improve this, we'd need to know the probability distribution of TLB flush range sizes for a set of workloads that are considered "common", build a synthetic trace and feed that into this benchmark. Even that is not perfect because it would not account for the time between flushes but there are limits of what can be reasonably done and still be doing something useful. If a representative synthetic trace is provided then this benchmark could be revisited and the shift values retuned.

The scheduler benchmarks were somewhat inconclusive. They showed gains and losses and makes me reconsider how stable those benchmarks really are or if something else might be interfering with the test results recently. Network benchmarks were inconclusive. Almost all results were flat except for netperf-udp tests on the 4 thread machine. These results were unstable and showed large variations between reboots. It is unknown if this is a recent problems but I've noticed before that netperf-udp results tend to vary. Based on these results, changing the default for Ivybridge seems like a logical choice.

| | * | | x86/mm: Eliminate redundant page table walk during TLB range flushingMel Gorman2014-01-25

A per-page flush typically requires fewer entries than would covered by a single large page and the check is redundant. There is one potential exception. THP migration flushes single THP entries and it conceivably would benefit from flushing a single entry instead of the mm. However, this flush is after a THP allocation, copy and page table update potentially with any other threads serialised behind it. In comparison to that, the flush is noise. It makes more sense to optimise balancing to require fewer flushes than to optimise the flush itself. This patch deletes the redundant huge page check.

But BIOSes spun only after Jan2014 will have the fix (atleast server versions of the chip). The erratum affects both embedded and server platforms and since we cannot say with certainity that ALL BIOSes on systems out in the field will have the fix, we should probably insulate ourselves in case BIOS does not do the right thing or someone is using old BIOSes. Refer to Revision Guide for AMD F16h models 00h-0fh, document 51810 Rev. 3.04, November2013 for details on the Erratum. Tested the patch on Fam16h server platform and it works fine.
