[ Upstream commit ad86d7ee43b22aa2ed60fb982ae94b285c1be671 ]

Running event hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/
in one of the system throws below error:

 ---Logs---
 # perf list | grep hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles

The above error is because of the hcall failure as required
permission "Enable Performance Information Collection" is not set.
Based on current code, single_gpci_request function did not check the
error type incase hcall fails and by default returns EINVAL. But we can
have other reasons for hcall failures like H_AUTHORITY/H_PARAMETER with
detail_rc as GEN_BUF_TOO_SMALL, for which we need to act accordingly.

Fix this issue by adding new checks in the single_gpci_request and
h_gpci_event_init functions.

Result after fix patch changes:

 # perf stat -e hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/ sleep 2

The macro __SPIN_LOCK_INITIALIZER() is implementation specific. Users
that desire to initialize a spinlock in a struct must use
__SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED().

Use __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED() for the spinlock_t in imc_global_refc.

[ Upstream commit 4ff3ba4db5943cac1045e3e4a3c0463ea10f6930 ]

Valid domain value is in range 1 to HV_PERF_DOMAIN_MAX. Current code has
check for domain value greater than or equal to HV_PERF_DOMAIN_MAX. But
the check for domain value 0 is missing.

Fix this issue by adding check for domain value 0.

Before:
  # ./perf stat -v -e hv_24x7/CPM_ADJUNCT_INST,domain=0,core=1/ sleep 1
  Using CPUID 00800200
  Control descriptor is not initialized
  Error:
  The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 5 (Input/output error) for
  event (hv_24x7/CPM_ADJUNCT_INST,domain=0,core=1/).
  /bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.

  Result from dmesg:

<content type='text'>
commit ad53db4acb415976761d7302f5b02e97f2bd097e upstream.

The recent commit 76d588dddc45 ("powerpc/imc-pmu: Fix use of mutex in
IRQs disabled section") fixed warnings (and possible deadlocks) in the
IMC PMU driver by converting the locking to use spinlocks.

It also converted the init-time nest_init_lock to a spinlock, even
though it's not used at runtime in IRQ disabled sections or while
holding other spinlocks.

This leads to warnings such as:

  BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at include/linux/percpu-rwsem.h:49

Fix it by converting nest_init_lock back to a mutex, so that we can call
sleeping functions while holding it. There is no interaction between
nest_init_lock and the runtime spinlocks used by the actual PMU routines.

commit 76d588dddc459fefa1da96e0a081a397c5c8e216 upstream.

Current imc-pmu code triggers a WARNING with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP
and CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING enabled, while running a thread_imc event.

Command to trigger the warning:
  # perf stat -e thread_imc/CPM_CS_FROM_L4_MEM_X_DPTEG/ sleep 5

   Performance counter stats for 'sleep 5':

                   0      thread_imc/CPM_CS_FROM_L4_MEM_X_DPTEG/

         0.000131000 seconds user

Below is snippet of the warning in dmesg:

The above warning triggered because the current imc-pmu code uses mutex
lock in interrupt disabled sections. The function mutex_lock()
internally calls __might_resched(), which will check if IRQs are
disabled and in case IRQs are disabled, it will trigger the warning.

Fix the issue by changing the mutex lock to spinlock.

[ Upstream commit 03f7c1d2a49acd30e38789cd809d3300721e9b0e ]

Based on getPerfCountInfo v1.018 documentation, some of the
hv_gpci events were deprecated for platform firmware that
supports counter_info_version 0x8 or above.

Fix the hv_gpci event list by adding a new attribute group
called "hv_gpci_event_attrs_v6" and a "ENABLE_EVENTS_COUNTERINFO_V6"
macro to enable these events for platform firmware
that supports counter_info_version 0x6 or below. And assigning
the hv_gpci event list based on output counter info version
of underlying plaform.

[ Upstream commit 32c5209214bd8d4f8c4e9d9b630ef4c671f58e79 ]

The interrupt frame detection and loads from the hypothetical pt_regs
are not bounds-checked. The next-frame validation only bounds-checks
STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD, which does not include the pt_regs. Add another
test for this.

The user could set r1 to be equal to the address matching the first
interrupt frame - STACK_INT_FRAME_SIZE, which is in the previous page
due to the kernel redzone, and induce the kernel to load the marker from
there. Possibly this could cause a crash at least. If the user could
induce the previous page to contain a valid marker, then it might be
able to direct perf to read specific memory addresses in a way that
could be transmitted back to the user in the perf data.

[ Upstream commit ab0cc6bbf0c812731c703ec757fcc3fc3a457a34 ]

Thresh compare bits for a event is used to program thresh compare
field in Monitor Mode Control Register A (MMCRA: 9-18 bits for power9).
When scheduling events as a group, all events in that group should
match value in threshold bits (like thresh compare, thresh control,
thresh select). Otherwise event open for the sibling events should fail.
But in the current code, incase thresh compare bits are not valid,
we are not failing in group_constraint function which can result
in invalid group schduling.

Fix the issue by returning -1 incase event is threshold and threshold
compare value is not valid.

Thresh control bits in the event code is used to program thresh_ctl
field in Monitor Mode Control Register A (MMCRA: 48-55). In below example,
the scheduling of group events PM_MRK_INST_CMPL (873534401e0) and
PM_THRESH_MET (8734340101ec) is expected to fail as both event
request different thresh control bits and invalid thresh compare value.

Result before the patch changes:

[ Upstream commit 0dcad700bb2776e3886fe0a645a4bf13b1e747cd ]

When scheduling a group of events, there are constraint checks done to
make sure all events can go in a group. Example, one of the criteria is
that events in a group cannot use the same PMC. But platform specific
PMU supports alternative event for some of the event codes. During
perf_event_open(), if any event group doesn't match constraint check
criteria, further lookup is done to find alternative event.

By current design, the array of alternatives events in PMU code is
expected to be sorted by column 0. This is because in
find_alternative() the return criteria is based on event code
comparison. ie. "event &lt; ev_alt[i][0])". This optimisation is there
since find_alternative() can be called multiple times. In power9 PMU
code, the alternative event array is not sorted properly and hence there
is breakage in finding alternative events.

To work with existing logic, fix the alternative event array to be
sorted by column 0 for power9-pmu.c

Results:

With alternative events, multiplexing can be avoided. That is, for
example, in power9 PM_LD_MISS_L1 (0x3e054) has alternative event,
PM_LD_MISS_L1_ALT (0x400f0). This is an identical event which can be
programmed in a different PMC.

Before:

 # perf stat -e r3e054,r300fc

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

           1057860      r3e054              (50.21%)
               379      r300fc              (49.79%)

       0.944329741 seconds time elapsed

Since both the events are using PMC3 in this case, they are
multiplexed here.

[ Upstream commit 0dcad700bb2776e3886fe0a645a4bf13b1e747cd ]

When scheduling a group of events, there are constraint checks done to
make sure all events can go in a group. Example, one of the criteria is
that events in a group cannot use the same PMC. But platform specific
PMU supports alternative event for some of the event codes. During
perf_event_open(), if any event group doesn't match constraint check
criteria, further lookup is done to find alternative event.

By current design, the array of alternatives events in PMU code is
expected to be sorted by column 0. This is because in
find_alternative() the return criteria is based on event code
comparison. ie. "event &lt; ev_alt[i][0])". This optimisation is there
since find_alternative() can be called multiple times. In power9 PMU
code, the alternative event array is not sorted properly and hence there
is breakage in finding alternative events.

To work with existing logic, fix the alternative event array to be
sorted by column 0 for power9-pmu.c
