rcutorture/configinit: Fix build directory error message

2018-03-22T08:37:17+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2adfa4210f8f35cdfb4e08318cc06b99752964c2 ]

The 'configinit.sh' script checks the format of optional argument for the
build directory, printing an error message if the format is not valid.
However, the error message uses the wrong variable, indicating an empty
string even though the user entered a non-empty (but erroneous) string.
This commit fixes the script to use the correct variable.

tools/usbip: fixes build with musl libc toolchain

2018-03-22T08:37:16+00:00

[ Upstream commit 77be4c878c72e411ad22af96b6f81dd45c26450a ]

Indeed musl doesn't define old SIGCLD signal name but only new one SIGCHLD.
SIGCHLD is the new POSIX name for that signal so it doesn't change
anything on other libcs.

This fixes this kind of build error:

usbipd.c: In function ‘set_signal’:
usbipd.c:459:12: error: 'SIGCLD' undeclared (first use in this function)
  sigaction(SIGCLD, &act, NULL);

perf session: Don't rely on evlist in pipe mode

2018-03-22T08:37:15+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0973ad97c187e06aece61f685b9c3b2d93290a73 ]

Session sets a number parameters that rely on evlist. These parameters
are not used in pipe-mode and should not be set, since evlist is
unavailable. Fix that.

perf inject: Copy events when reordering events in pipe mode

2018-03-22T08:37:15+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1e0d4f0200e4dbdfc38d818f329d8a0955f7c6f5 ]

__perf_session__process_pipe_events reuses the same memory buffer to
process all events in the pipe.

When reordering is needed (e.g. -b option), events are not immediately
flushed, but kept around until reordering is possible, causing
memory corruption.

The problem is usually observed by a "Unknown sample error" output. It
can easily be reproduced by:

  perf record -o - noploop | perf inject -b > output

Committer testing:

Before:

  $ perf record -o - stress -t 2 -c 2 | perf inject -b > /dev/null
  stress: info: [8297] dispatching hogs: 2 cpu, 0 io, 0 vm, 0 hdd
  stress: info: [8297] successful run completed in 2s
  [ perf record: Woken up 3 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB - ]
  Warning:
  Found 1 unknown events!

  Is this an older tool processing a perf.data file generated by a more recent tool?

  If that is not the case, consider reporting to linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org.

After:

  $ perf record -o - stress -t 2 -c 2 | perf inject -b > /dev/null
  stress: info: [9027] dispatching hogs: 2 cpu, 0 io, 0 vm, 0 hdd

perf tools: Make perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events() scale

2018-03-22T08:37:12+00:00

[ Upstream commit 88b897a30c525c2eee6e7f16e1e8d0f18830845e ]

This patch significantly improves the execution time of
perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events() when running perf record on systems
where processes have lots of threads.

It just happens that cat /proc/pid/maps support uses a O(N^2) algorithm to
generate each map line in the maps file.  If you have 1000 threads, then you
have necessarily 1000 stacks.  For each vma, you need to check if it
corresponds to a thread's stack.  With a large number of threads, this can take
a very long time. I have seen latencies >> 10mn.

As of today, perf does not use the fact that a mapping is a stack, therefore we
can work around the issue by using /proc/pid/tasks/pid/maps.  This entry does
not try to map a vma to stack and is thus much faster with no loss of
functonality.

The proc-map-timeout logic is kept in case users still want some upper limit.

In V2, we fix the file path from /proc/pid/tasks/pid/maps to actual
/proc/pid/task/pid/maps, tasks -> task.  Thanks Arnaldo for catching this.

Committer note:

This problem seems to have been elliminated in the kernel since commit :
b18cb64ead40 ("fs/proc: Stop trying to report thread stacks").

perf bench numa: Fixup discontiguous/sparse numa nodes

2018-02-25T10:01:19+00:00

[ Upstream commit 321a7c35c90cc834851ceda18a8ee18f1d032b92 ]

Certain systems are designed to have sparse/discontiguous nodes.  On
such systems, 'perf bench numa' hangs, shows wrong number of nodes and
shows values for non-existent nodes. Handle this by only taking nodes
that are exposed by kernel to userspace.

perf top: Fix window dimensions change handling

[ Upstream commit 89d0aeab4252adc2a7ea693637dd21c588bfa2d1 ]

The stdio perf top crashes when we change the terminal
window size. The reason is that we assumed we get the
perf_top pointer as a signal handler argument which is
not the case.

Changing the SIGWINCH handler logic to change global
resize variable, which is checked in the main thread
loop.

usbip: Fix potential format overflow in userspace tools

2018-02-16T19:14:43+00:00

commit e5dfa3f902b9a642ae8c6997d57d7c41e384a90b upstream.

The usbip userspace tools call sprintf()/snprintf() and don't check for
the return value which can lead the paths to overflow, truncating the
final file in the path.

More urgently, GCC 7 now warns that these aren't checked with
-Wformat-overflow, and with -Werror enabled in configure.ac, that makes
these tools unbuildable.

This patch fixes these problems by replacing sprintf() with snprintf() in
one place and adding checks for the return value of snprintf().

usbip: prevent vhci_hcd driver from leaking a socket pointer address

2018-02-16T19:14:43+00:00

commit 2f2d0088eb93db5c649d2a5e34a3800a8a935fc5 upstream.

When a client has a USB device attached over IP, the vhci_hcd driver is
locally leaking a socket pointer address via the

/sys/devices/platform/vhci_hcd/status file (world-readable) and in debug
output when "usbip --debug port" is run.

Fix it to not leak. The socket pointer address is not used at the moment
and it was made visible as a convenient way to find IP address from socket
pointer address by looking up /proc/net/{tcp,tcp6}.

As this opens a security hole, the fix replaces socket pointer address with
sockfd.

usbip host lists devices attached to vhci_hcd on the same server
when user does attach over localhost or specifies the server as the
remote.

usbip attach -r localhost -b busid
or
usbip attach -r servername (or server IP)

Fix it to check and not list devices that are attached to vhci_hcd.
