2018-05-30powerpc/perf: Fix kernel address leak via sampling registersMichael Ellerman1-0/+15
[ Upstream commit e1ebd0e5b9d0a10ba65e63a3514b6da8c6a5a819 ] Current code in power_pmu_disable() does not clear the sampling registers like Sampling Instruction Address Register (SIAR) and Sampling Data Address Register (SDAR) after disabling the PMU. Since these are userspace readable and could contain kernel addresses, add code to explicitly clear the content of these registers. Also add a "context synchronizing instruction" to enforce no further updates to these registers as suggested by Power ISA v3.0B. From section 9.4, on page 1108: "If an mtspr instruction is executed that changes the value of a Performance Monitor register other than SIAR, SDAR, and SIER, the change is not guaranteed to have taken effect until after a subsequent context synchronizing instruction has been executed (see Chapter 11. "Synchronization Requirements for Context Alterations" on page 1133)."

2018-05-30powerpc/perf: Prevent kernel address leak to userspace via BHRB bufferMadhavan Srinivasan1-0/+10
[ Upstream commit bb19af816025d495376bd76bf6fbcf4244f9a06d ] The current Branch History Rolling Buffer (BHRB) code does not check for any privilege levels before updating the data from BHRB. This could leak kernel addresses to userspace even when profiling only with userspace privileges. Add proper checks to prevent it.

[ Upstream commit 5aa04b3eb6fca63d2e9827be656dcadc26d54e11 ] When user tries to group imc (In-Memory Collections) event with normal event, (sometime) kernel crashes with following log: Faulting instruction address: 0x00000000 [link register ] c00000000010ce88 power_check_constraints+0x128/0x980 ... c00000000010e238 power_pmu_event_init+0x268/0x6f0 c0000000002dc60c perf_try_init_event+0xdc/0x1a0 c0000000002dce88 perf_event_alloc+0x7b8/0xac0 c0000000002e92e0 SyS_perf_event_open+0x530/0xda0 c00000000000b004 system_call+0x38/0xe0 'event_base' field of 'struct hw_perf_event' is used as flags for normal hw events and used as memory address for imc events.

Consider only those events which belongs to 'perf_hw_context' in collect_events().

2017-12-29powerpc/perf: Dereference BHRB entries safelyRavi Bangoria1-2/+6
commit f41d84dddc66b164ac16acf3f584c276146f1c48 upstream. It's theoretically possible that branch instructions recorded in BHRB (Branch History Rolling Buffer) entries have already been unmapped before they are processed by the kernel. Hence, trying to dereference such memory location will result in a crash. eg: Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0xd000000019c41764 Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000084a14 NIP [c000000000084a14] branch_target+0x4/0x70 LR [c0000000000eb828] record_and_restart+0x568/0x5c0 Call Trace: [c0000000000eb3b4] record_and_restart+0xf4/0x5c0 (unreliable) [c0000000000ec378] perf_event_interrupt+0x298/0x460 [c000000000027964] performance_monitor_exception+0x54/0x70 [c000000000009ba4] performance_monitor_common+0x114/0x120 Fix it by deferefencing the addresses safely.

2017-12-20powerpc/perf/hv-24x7: Fix incorrect comparison in memordMichael Ellerman1-1/+1
[ Upstream commit 05c14c03138532a3cb2aa29c2960445c8753343b ] In the hv-24x7 code there is a function memord() which tries to implement a sort function return -1, 0, 1. However one of the conditions is incorrect, such that it can never be true, because we will have already returned. I don't believe there is a bug in practice though, because the comparisons are an optimisation prior to calling memcmp(). Fix it by swapping the second comparision, so it can be true.

2017-06-29powerpc/perf: Fix oops when kthread execs user processRavi Bangoria1-1/+2
commit bf05fc25f268cd62f147f368fe65ad3e5b04fe9f upstream. When a kthread calls call_usermodehelper() the steps are: 1. allocate current->mm 2. load_elf_binary() 3. populate current->thread.regs While doing this, interrupts are not disabled. If there is a perf interrupt in the middle of this process (i.e. step 1 has completed but not yet reached to step 3) and if perf tries to read userspace regs, kernel oops with following log: Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000000 Faulting instruction address: 0xc0000000000da0fc ...

We will use it to count how many addresses are in the entry->ip[] array, excluding PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER,etc} entries, so that we can really return the number of entries specified by the user via the relevant sysctl, kernel.perf_event_max_contexts, or via the per event perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack knob. This way we keep the perf_sample->ip_callchain->nr meaning, that is the number of entries, be it real addresses or PERF_CONTEXT_ entries, while honouring the max_stack knobs, i.e. the end result will be max_stack entries if we have at least that many entries in a given stack trace.

2016-04-27perf core: Allow setting up max frame stack depth via sysctlArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-2/+2
The default remains 127, which is good for most cases, and not even hit most of the time, but then for some cases, as reported by Brendan, 1024+ deep frames are appearing on the radar for things like groovy, ruby. And in some workloads putting a _lower_ cap on this may make sense. One that is per event still needs to be put in place tho. The new file is: # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack 127 Chaging it: # echo 256 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack 256 But as soon as there is some event using callchains we get: # echo 512 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack -bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy # Because we only allocate the callchain percpu data structures when there is a user, which allows for changing the max easily, its just a matter of having no callchain users at that point.

2016-03-10powerpc/perf/24x7: Eliminate domain suffix in event namesSukadev Bhattiprolu1-83/+66
The Physical Core events of the 24x7 PMU can be monitored across various domains (physical core, vcpu home core, vcpu home node etc). For each of these core events, we currently create multiple events in sysfs, one for each domain the event can be monitored in. These events are distinguished by their suffixes like __PHYS_CORE, __VCPU_HOME_CORE etc. Rather than creating multiple such entries, we could let the user specify make 'domain' index a required parameter and let the user specify a value for it (like they currently specify the core index). $ cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/events/HPM_CCYC domain=?,offset=0x98,core=?,lpar=0x0 $ perf stat -C 0 -e hv_24x7/HPM_CCYC,domain=2,core=1/ true (the 'domain=?' and 'core=?' in sysfs tell perf tool to enforce them as required parameters). This simplifies the interface and allows users to identify events by the name specified in the catalog (User can determine the domain index by referring to '/sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/interface/domains'). Eliminating the event suffix eliminates several functions and simplifies code. Note that Physical Chip events can only be monitored in the chip domain so those events have the domain set to 1 (rather than =?) and users don't need to specify the domain index for the Chip events. $ cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/events/PM_XLINK_CYCLES domain=1,offset=0x230,chip=?,lpar=0x0 $ perf stat -C 0 -e hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES,chip=1/ true Signed-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

2016-03-10powerpc/perf/hv-24x7: Display change in counter valuesSukadev Bhattiprolu1-1/+12
For 24x7 counters, perf displays the raw value of the 24x7 counter, which is a monotonically increasing value. perf stat -C 0 -e \ 'hv_24x7/HPM_0THRD_NON_IDLE_CCYC__PHYS_CORE,core=1/' \ sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0': 9,105,403,170 hv_24x7/HPM_0THRD_NON_IDLE_CCYC__PHYS_CORE,core=1/ 0.000425751 seconds time elapsed In the typical usage of 'perf stat' this counter value is not as useful as the _change_ in the counter value over the duration of the application. Have h_24x7_event_init() set the event's prev_count to the raw value of the 24x7 counter at the time of initialization. When the application terminates, hv_24x7_event_read() will compute the change in value and report to the perf tool. Similarly, for the transaction interface, clear the event count to 0 at the beginning of the transaction. perf stat -C 0 -e \ 'hv_24x7/HPM_0THRD_NON_IDLE_CCYC__PHYS_CORE,core=1/' \ sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0': 245,758 hv_24x7/HPM_0THRD_NON_IDLE_CCYC__PHYS_CORE,core=1/ 1.006366383 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2016-03-10powerpc/perf/hv-24x7: Fix usage with chip events.Sukadev Bhattiprolu1-4/+18
24x7 counters can belong to different domains (core, chip, virtual CPU etc). For events in the 'chip' domain, sysfs entry currently looks like: $ cd /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/events $ cat PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP domain=0x1,offset=0x230,core=?,lpar=0x0 where the required parameter, 'core=?' is specified with perf as: perf stat -C 0 -e hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP,core=1/ \ /bin/true This is inconsistent in that 'core' is a required parameter for a chip event. Instead, have the the sysfs entry display 'chip=?' for chip events: $ cd /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/events $ cat PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP domain=0x1,offset=0x230,chip=?,lpar=0x0 We also need to add a 'chip' entry in the sysfs format directory: $ ls /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/format chip core domain lpar offset vcpu ^^^^ (new) so the perf tool can automatically check usage and format the chip parameter correctly: $ perf stat -C 0 -v -e hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP/ \ /bin/true Required parameter 'chip' not specified invalid or unsupported event: 'hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP/' $ perf stat -C 0 -v -e hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP,chip=1/ \ /bin/true hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP,chip=1/: 0 6628908 6628908 Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0': 0 hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP,chip=1/ 0.006606970 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
