As reported back in 2016-11 [1], the "ftdump" kdb command triggers a
BUG for "sleeping function called from invalid context".
kdb's "ftdump" command wants to call ring_buffer_read_prepare() in
atomic context. A very simple solution for this is to add allocation
flags to ring_buffer_read_prepare() so kdb can call it without
triggering the allocation error. This patch does that.
Note that in the original email thread about this, it was suggested
that perhaps the solution for kdb was to either preallocate the buffer
ahead of time or create our own iterator. I'm hoping that this
alternative of adding allocation flags to ring_buffer_read_prepare()
can be considered since it means I don't need to duplicate more of the
core trace code into "trace_kdb.c" (for either creating my own
iterator or re-preparing a ring allocator whose memory was already
allocated).
NOTE: another option for kdb is to actually figure out how to make it
reuse the existing ftrace_dump() function and totally eliminate the
duplication. This sounds very appealing and actually works (the "sr
z" command can be seen to properly dump the ftrace buffer). The
downside here is that ftrace_dump() fully consumes the trace buffer.
Unless that is changed I'd rather not use it because it means "ftdump
| grep xyz" won't be very useful to search the ftrace buffer since it
will throw away the whole trace on the first grep. A future patch to
dump only the last few lines of the buffer will also be hard to
implement.

Because there may be random garbage beyond a string's null terminator,
it's not correct to copy the the complete character array for use as a
hist trigger key. This results in multiple histogram entries for the
'same' string key.
So, in the case of a string key, use strncpy instead of memcpy to
avoid copying in the extra bytes.
Before, using the gdbus entries in the following hist trigger as an
example:

Before setting tr->cond_snapshot, it must be NULL before it can be updated.
It can go to NULL when a trace event hist trigger is created or removed, and
can only be modified under the max_lock spin lock. But because it can only
be set to something other than NULL under both the max_lock spin lock as
well as the trace_types_lock, we can perform the check if it is not NULL
only under the trace_types_lock and fail out without having to grab the
max_lock spin lock.
This is very subtle, and deserves a comment.

Add a 'trace(synthetic_event_name, params)' alternative to
synthetic_event_name(params).
Currently, the syntax used for generating synthetic events is to
invoke synthetic_event_name(params) i.e. use the synthetic event name
as a function call.
Users requested a new form that more explicitly shows that the
synthetic event is in effect being traced. In this version, a new
'trace()' keyword is used, and the synthetic event name is passed in
as the first argument.
In addition, for the sake of consistency with other actions, change
the documention to emphasize the trace() form over the function-call
form, which remains documented as equivalent.

Add support for hist:handlerXXX($var).snapshot(), which will take a
snapshot of the current trace buffer whenever handlerXXX is hit.
As a first user, this also adds snapshot() action support for the
onmax() handler i.e. hist:onmax($var).snapshot().
Also, the hist trigger key printing is moved into a separate function
so the snapshot() action can print a histogram key outside the
histogram display - add and use hist_trigger_print_key() for that
purpose.

Currently, tracing snapshots are context-free - they capture the ring
buffer contents at the time the tracing_snapshot() function was
invoked, and nothing else. Additionally, they're always taken
unconditionally - the calling code can decide whether or not to take a
snapshot, but the data used to make that decision is kept separately
from the snapshot itself.
This change adds the ability to associate with each trace instance
some user data, along with an 'update' function that can use that data
to determine whether or not to actually take a snapshot. The update
function can then update that data along with any other state (as part
of the data presumably), if warranted.
Because snapshots are 'global' per-instance, only one user can enable
and use a conditional snapshot for any given trace instance. To
enable a conditional snapshot (see details in the function and data
structure comments), the user calls tracing_snapshot_cond_enable().
Similarly, to disable a conditional snapshot and free it up for other
users, tracing_snapshot_cond_disable() should be called.
To actually initiate a conditional snapshot, tracing_snapshot_cond()
should be called. tracing_snapshot_cond() will invoke the update()
callback, allowing the user to decide whether or not to actually take
the snapshot and update the user-defined data associated with the
snapshot. If the callback returns 'true', tracing_snapshot_cond()
will then actually take the snapshot and return.
This scheme allows for flexibility in snapshot implementations - for
example, by implementing slightly different update() callbacks,
snapshots can be taken in situations where the user is only interested
in taking a snapshot when a new maximum in hit versus when a value
changes in any way at all. Future patches will demonstrate both
cases.

The action refactor code allowed actions and handlers to be separated,
but the existing onmax handler and save action code is still not
flexible enough to handle arbitrary coupling. This change generalizes
them and in the process makes additional handlers and actions easier
to implement.
The onmax action can be broken up and thought of as two separate
components - a variable to be tracked (the parameter given to the
onmax($var_to_track) function) and an invisible variable created to
save the ongoing result of doing something with that variable, such as
saving the max value of that variable so far seen.
Separating it out like this and renaming it appropriately allows us to
use the same code for similar tracking functions such as
onchange($var_to_track), which would just track the last value seen
rather than the max seen so far, which is useful in some situations.
Additionally, because different handlers and actions may want to save
and access data differently e.g. save and retrieve tracking values as
local variables vs something more global, save_val() and get_val()
interface functions are introduced and max-specific implementations
are used instead.
The same goes for the code that checks whether a maximum has been hit
- a generic check_val() interface and max-checking implementation is
used instead, which allows future patches to make use of he same code
using their own implemetations of similar functionality.

Currently, the onmatch action data binds the onmatch action to data
related to synthetic event generation. Since we want to allow the
onmatch handler to potentially invoke a different action, and because
we expect other handlers to generate synthetic events, we need to
separate the data related to these two functions.
Also rename the onmatch data to something more descriptive, and create
and use common action data destroy function.

The hist trigger action code currently implements two essentially
hard-coded pairs of 'actions' - onmax(), which tracks a variable and
saves some event fields when a max is hit, and onmatch(), which is
hard-coded to generate a synthetic event.
These hardcoded pairs (track max/save fields and detect match/generate
synthetic event) should really be decoupled into separate components
that can then be arbitrarily combined. The first component of each
pair (track max/detect match) is called a 'handler' in the new code,
while the second component (save fields/generate synthetic event) is
called an 'action' in this scheme.
This change refactors the action code to reflect this split by adding
two handlers, HANDLER_ONMATCH and HANDLER_ONMAX, along with two
actions, ACTION_SAVE and ACTION_TRACE.
The new code combines them to produce the existing ONMATCH/TRACE and
ONMAX/SAVE functionality, but doesn't implement the other combinations
now possible. Future patches will expand these to further useful
cases, such as ONMAX/TRACE, as well as add additional handlers and
actions such as ONCHANGE and SNAPSHOT.
Also, add abbreviated documentation for handlers and actions to
README.

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 uprobe.ref 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.
The full comparison can be seen in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon
in state to be merged to the documentation tree.
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 uprobe.ref it might make a difference
in following places:
- put_uprobe(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only
provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success
vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart

Enabling of large number of functions by echoing in a large subset of the
functions in available_filter_functions can take a very long time. The
process requires testing all functions registered by the function tracer
(which is in the 10s of thousands), and doing a kallsyms lookup to convert
the ip address into a name, then comparing that name with the string passed
in.
When a function causes the function tracer to crash the system, a binary
bisect of the available_filter_functions can be done to find the culprit.
But this requires passing in half of the functions in
available_filter_functions over and over again, which makes it basically a
O(n^2) operation. With 40,000 functions, that ends up bing 1,600,000,000
opertions! And enabling this can take over 20 minutes.
As a quick speed up, if a number is passed into one of the filter files,
instead of doing a search, it just enables the function at the corresponding
line of the available_filter_functions file. That is:
# echo 50 > set_ftrace_filter
# cat set_ftrace_filter
x86_pmu_commit_txn
# head -50 available_filter_functions | tail -1
x86_pmu_commit_txn
This allows setting of half the available_filter_functions to take place in
less than a second!
# time seq 20000 > set_ftrace_filter

psi has provisions to shut off the periodic aggregation worker when
there is a period of no task activity - and thus no data that needs
aggregating. However, while developing psi monitoring, Suren noticed
that the aggregation clock currently won't stay shut off for good.
Debugging this revealed a flaw in the idle design: an aggregation run
will see no task activity and decide to go to sleep; shortly thereafter,
the kworker thread that executed the aggregation will go idle and cause
a scheduling change, during which the psi callback will kick the
!pending worker again. This will ping-pong forever, and is equivalent
to having no shut-off logic at all (but with more code!)
Fix this by exempting aggregation workers from psi's clock waking logic
when the state change is them going to sleep. To do this, tag workers
with the last work function they executed, and if in psi we see a worker
going to sleep after aggregating psi data, we will not reschedule the
aggregation work item.
What if the worker is also executing other items before or after?
Any psi state times that were incurred by work items preceding the
aggregation work will have been collected from the per-cpu buckets
during the aggregation itself. If there are work items following the
aggregation work, the worker's last_func tag will be overwritten and the
aggregator will be kept alive to process this genuine new activity.
If the aggregation work is the last thing the worker does, and we decide
to go idle, the brief period of non-idle time incurred between the
aggregation run and the kworker's dequeue will be stranded in the
per-cpu buckets until the clock is woken by later activity. But that
should not be a problem. The buckets can hold 4s worth of time, and
future activity will wake the clock with a 2s delay, giving us 2s worth
of data we can leave behind when disabling aggregation. If it takes a
worker more than two seconds to go idle after it finishes its last work
item, we likely have bigger problems in the system, and won't notice one
sample that was averaged with a bogus per-CPU weight.

With the following commit:
73d5e2b472 ("cpu/hotplug: detect SMT disabled by BIOS")
... the hotplug code attempted to detect when SMT was disabled by BIOS,
in which case it reported SMT as permanently disabled. However, that
code broke a virt hotplug scenario, where the guest is booted with only
primary CPU threads, and a sibling is brought online later.
The problem is that there doesn't seem to be a way to reliably
distinguish between the HW "SMT disabled by BIOS" case and the virt
"sibling not yet brought online" case. So the above-mentioned commit
was a bit misguided, as it permanently disabled SMT for both cases,
preventing future virt sibling hotplugs.
Going back and reviewing the original problems which were attempted to
be solved by that commit, when SMT was disabled in BIOS:
1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control showed "on" instead of
"notsupported"; and
2) vmx_vm_init() was incorrectly showing the L1TF_MSG_SMT warning.
I'd propose that we instead consider #1 above to not actually be a
problem. Because, at least in the virt case, it's possible that SMT
wasn't disabled by BIOS and a sibling thread could be brought online
later. So it makes sense to just always default the smt control to "on"
to allow for that possibility (assuming cpuid indicates that the CPU
supports SMT).
The real problem is #2, which has a simple fix: change vmx_vm_init() to
query the actual current SMT state -- i.e., whether any siblings are
currently online -- instead of looking at the SMT "control" sysfs value.
So fix it by:
a) reverting the original "fix" and its followup fix:
73d5e2b472 ("cpu/hotplug: detect SMT disabled by BIOS")
bc2d8d262c ("cpu/hotplug: Fix SMT supported evaluation")
and
b) changing vmx_vm_init() to query the actual current SMT state --
instead of the sysfs control value -- to determine whether the L1TF
warning is needed. This also requires the 'sched_smt_present'
variable to exported, instead of 'cpu_smt_control'.

With commit a74cfffb03 ("x86/speculation: Rework SMT state change"),
arch_smt_update() is invoked from each individual CPU hotplug function.
Therefore the extra arch_smt_update() call in the sysfs SMT control is
redundant.

Because wake_q_add() can imply an immediate wakeup (cmpxchg failure
case), we must not rely on the wakeup being delayed. However, commit:
e38513905e ("locking/rwsem: Rework zeroing reader waiter->task")
relies on exactly that behaviour in that the wakeup must not happen
until after we clear waiter->task.

commit:
1d0dcb3ad9 ("futex: Implement lockless wakeups")
moved wake_q_add() before smp_store_release(&q->lock_ptr, NULL), which
could result in futex_wait() waking before observing ->lock_ptr ==
NULL and going back to sleep again.

Notable cmpxchg() does not provide ordering when it fails, however
wake_q_add() requires ordering in this specific case too. Without this
it would be possible for the concurrent wakeup to not observe our
prior state.

The only guarantee provided by wake_q_add() is that a wakeup will
happen after it, it does _NOT_ guarantee the wakeup will be delayed
until the matching wake_up_q().
If wake_q_add() fails the cmpxchg() a concurrent wakeup is pending and
that can happen at any time after the cmpxchg(). This means we should
not rely on the wakeup happening at wake_q_up(), but should be ready
for wake_q_add() to issue the wakeup.
The delay; if provided (most likely); should only result in more efficient
behaviour.

For some peculiar reason rcuwait_wake_up() has the right barrier in
the comment, but not in the code.
This mistake has been observed to cause a deadlock in the following
situation:
P1 P2
percpu_up_read() percpu_down_write()
rcu_sync_is_idle() // false
rcu_sync_enter()
...
__percpu_up_read()
[S] ,- __this_cpu_dec(*sem->read_count)
| smp_rmb();
[L] | task = rcu_dereference(w->task) // NULL
|
| [S] w->task = current
| smp_mb();
| [L] readers_active_check() // fail
`-> <store happens here>
Where the smp_rmb() (obviously) fails to constrain the store.

The perf_proc_update_handler() handles /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
syctl variable. When the PMU IRQ handler timing monitoring is disabled, i.e,
when /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent is equal to 0 or 100,
then no modification to sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate is allowed to prevent
possible hang from wrong values.
The problem is that the test to prevent modification is made after the
sysctl variable is modified in perf_proc_update_handler().
You get an error:
$ echo 10001 >/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
echo: write error: invalid argument
But the value is still modified causing all sorts of inconsistencies:
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
10001
This patch fixes the problem by moving the parsing of the value after
the test.
Committer testing:
# echo 100 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent
# echo 10001 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
