Problem and motivation: Once a breakpoint perf event (PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT)
is created, there is no flexibility to change the breakpoint type
(bp_type), breakpoint address (bp_addr), or breakpoint length (bp_len). The
only option is to close the perf event and configure a new breakpoint
event. This inflexibility has a significant performance overhead. For
example, sampling-based, lightweight performance profilers (and also
concurrency bug detection tools), monitor different addresses for a short
duration using PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT and change the address (bp_addr) to
another address or change the kind of breakpoint (bp_type) from "write" to
a "read" or vice-versa or change the length (bp_len) of the address being
monitored. The cost of these modifications is prohibitive since it involves
unmapping the circular buffer associated with the perf event, closing the
perf event, opening another perf event and mmaping another circular buffer.
Solution: The new ioctl flag for perf events,
PERF_EVENT_IOC_MODIFY_ATTRIBUTES, introduced in this patch takes a pointer
to a struct perf_event_attr as an argument to update an old breakpoint
event with new address, type, and size. This facility allows retaining a
previous mmaped perf events ring buffer and avoids having to close and
reopen another perf event.
This patch supports only changing PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT event type; future
implementations can extend this feature. The patch replicates some of its
functionality of modify_user_hw_breakpoint() in
kernel/events/hw_breakpoint.c. modify_user_hw_breakpoint cannot be called
directly since perf_event_ctx_lock() is already held in _perf_ioctl().
Evidence: Experiments show that the baseline (not able to modify an already
created breakpoint) costs an order of magnitude (~10x) more than the
suggested optimization (having the ability to dynamically modifying a
configured breakpoint via ioctl). When the breakpoints typically do not
trap, the speedup due to the suggested optimization is ~10x; even when the
breakpoints always trap, the speedup is ~4x due to the suggested
optimization.
Testing: tests posted at
https://github.com/linux-contrib/perf_event_modify_bp demonstrate the
performance significance of this patch. Tests also check the functional
correctness of the patch.

Adding test that:
- detects the number of watch/break-points,
skip test if any is missing
- detects PERF_EVENT_IOC_MODIFY_ATTRIBUTES ioctl,
skip test if it's missing
- detects if watchpoints and breakpoints share
same slots
- create all possible watchpoints on cpu 0
- change one of it to breakpoint
- in case wp and bp do not share slots,
we create another watchpoint to ensure
the slot accounting is correct

And rename it to modify_user_hw_breakpoint_check().
We are about to use modify_user_hw_breakpoint_check() for user space
breakpoints modification, we must be very strict to check only the
fields we can change have changed. As Peter explained:
"Suppose someone does:
attr = malloc(sizeof(*attr)); // uninitialized memory
attr->type = BP;
attr->bp_addr = new_addr;
attr->bp_type = bp_type;
attr->bp_len = bp_len;
ioctl(fd, PERF_IOC_MOD_ATTR, &attr);
And feeds absolute shite for the rest of the fields.
Then we later want to extend IOC_MOD_ATTR to allow changing
attr::sample_type but we can't, because that would break the
above application."
I'm making this check optional because we already export
modify_user_hw_breakpoint() and with this check we could
break existing users.

There's two problems when installing cgroup events on CPUs: firstly
list_update_cgroup_event() only tries to set cpuctx->cgrp for the
first event, if that mismatches on @cgrp we'll not try again for later
additions.
Secondly, when we install a cgroup event into an active context, only
issue an event reprogram when the event matches the current cgroup
context. This avoids a pointless event reprogramming.

Similar to how first programming cpu=-1 and then cpu=# is wrong, so is
rotating both. It was especially wrong when we were still programming
the PMU in this same order, because in that scenario we might never
actually end up running cpu=# events at all.
Cure this by using the active_list to pick the rotation event; since
at programming we already select the left-most event.

Scheduling in events with cpu=-1 before events with cpu=# changes
semantics and is undesirable in that it would priorize these events.
Given that groups->index is across all groups we actually have an
inter-group ordering, meaning we can merge-sort two groups, which is

Mark reported his arm64 perf fuzzer runs sometimes splat like:

armpmu_read+0xc/0x18
perf_output_read+0x550/0x11e8

do_signal+0x144/0x4f8
do_notify_resume+0x148/0x1e8
work_pending+0x8/0x14
which asserts that we only call pmu::read() on ACTIVE events.
The above callchain does:
perf_event_exit_task()
perf_event_exit_task_context()
task_ctx_sched_out() // INACTIVE
perf_event_exit_event()
perf_event_set_state(EXIT) // EXIT
sync_child_event()
perf_event_read_event()
perf_output_read()
perf_output_read_group()
leader->pmu->read()
Which results in doing a pmu::read() on an !ACTIVE event.
I _think_ this is 'new' since we added attr.inherit_stat, which added
the perf_event_read_event() to the exit path, without that
perf_event_read_output() would only trigger from samples and for
@event to trigger a sample, it's leader _must_ be ACTIVE too.
Still, adding this check makes it consistent with the @sub case for
the siblings.

Userspace RDPMC cannot possibly work for large PEBS, which was introduced in:
b8241d2069 ("perf/x86/intel: Implement batched PEBS interrupt handling (large PEBS interrupt threshold)")
When the PEBS interrupt threshold is larger than one, there is no way
to get exact auto-reload times and value for userspace RDPMC. Disable
the userspace RDPMC usage when large PEBS is enabled.
The only exception is when the PEBS interrupt threshold is 1, in which
case user-space RDPMC works well even with auto-reload events.

There is no way to get exact auto-reload times and values which are needed
for event updates unless we flush the PEBS buffer.
Introduce intel_pmu_auto_reload_read() to drain the PEBS buffer for
auto reload event. To prevent races with the hardware, we can only
call drain_pebs() when the PMU is disabled.

There is a bug when reading event->count with large PEBS enabled.
Here is an example:
# ./read_count
0x71f0
0x122c0
0x1000000001c54
0x100000001257d
0x200000000bdc5
In fixed period mode, the auto-reload mechanism could be enabled for
PEBS events, but the calculation of event->count does not take the
auto-reload values into account.
Anyone who reads event->count will get the wrong result, e.g x86_pmu_read().
This bug was introduced with the auto-reload mechanism enabled since
commit:
851559e35f ("perf/x86/intel: Use the PEBS auto reload mechanism when possible")
Introduce intel_pmu_save_and_restart_reload() to calculate the
event->count only for auto-reload.
Since the counter increments a negative counter value and overflows on
the sign switch, giving the interval:
[-period, 0]
the difference between two consequtive reads is:
A) value2 - value1;
when no overflows have happened in between,
B) (0 - value1) + (value2 - (-period));
when one overflow happened in between,
C) (0 - value1) + (n - 1) * (period) + (value2 - (-period));
when @n overflows happened in between.
Here A) is the obvious difference, B) is the extension to the discrete
interval, where the first term is to the top of the interval and the
second term is from the bottom of the next interval and C) the extension
to multiple intervals, where the middle term is the whole intervals
covered.
The equation for all cases is:
value2 - value1 + n * period
Previously the event->count is updated right before the sample output.
But for case A, there is no PEBS record ready. It needs to be specially
handled.
Remove the auto-reload code from x86_perf_event_set_period() since
we'll not longer call that function in this case.

This is fine in current usage because no-one checks it - but fix it

fix an auto-reload bug.

Large fixed period values could be truncated on Broadwell, for example:
perf record -e cycles -c 10000000000
Here the fixed period is 0x2540BE400, but the period which finally applied is
0x540BE400 - which is wrong.
The reason is that x86_pmu::limit_period() uses an u32 parameter, so the
high 32 bits of 'period' get truncated.
This bug was introduced in:
commit 294fe0f52a ("perf/x86/intel: Add INST_RETIRED.ALL workarounds")
It's safe to use u64 instead of u32:
- Although the 'left' is s64, the value of 'left' must be positive when
calling limit_period().
- bdw_limit_period() only modifies the lowest 6 bits, it doesn't touch
the higher 32 bits.

S390 has several load and store instructions with target operand
addressing relative to the program counter, for example lrl, lgrl, strl,
stgrl.
These instructions are handled similar to x86. Objdump output displays
those instructions as:
9595c: c4 2d 00 09 9c 54 lgrl %r7,1c8540 <mp_+0x60>
This output is parsed (like on x86) and perf annotate shows those lines
as:
lgrl %r7,mp_+0x60
This patch handles the s390 specific instruction parsing for PC relative
load and store instructions.

Adding MEM_TOPOLOGY feature to perf data file,
that will carry physical memory map and its
node assignments.
The format of data in MEM_TOPOLOGY is as follows:
0 - version | for future changes
8 - block_size_bytes | /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes
16 - count | number of nodes
For each node we store map of physical indexes for
each node:
32 - node id | node index
40 - size | size of bitmap
48 - bitmap | bitmap of memory indexes that belongs to node
| /sys/devices/system/node/node<NODE>/memory<INDEX>
The MEM_TOPOLOGY could be displayed with following
report command:
$ perf report --header-only -I
...

'perf annotate' displays function call assembler instructions with a
right arrow. Hitting enter on this line/instruction causes the browser
to disassemble this target function and show it on the screen. On s390
this results in an error message 'The called function was not found.'
The function call assembly line parsing does not handle the s390 bras
and brasl instructions. Function call__parse expects the target as first
operand:
callq e9140 <__fxstat>
S390 has a register number as first operand:
brasl %r14,41d60 <abort>
Therefore the target addresses on s390 are always zero which is an
invalid address.
Introduce a s390 specific call parsing function which skips the first
operand on s390.

mode and sampling mode at the same time.
Although there are no plans to support it, let validation (not yet
implemented) control whether it is allowed rather than low-level
functions.

intel_pt_get_trace() fixes overlaps between the current buffer and the
previous buffer ('old_buffer').
However the previous buffer might not have had usable data (no PSB) so
the comparison must be made against the previous buffer that had usable
data.
Tidy that by keeping a pointer for that purpose in struct intel_pt_queue.

With the new way sampling support will be implemented,
intel_pt_use_buffer_pid_tid() will not be needed. Get rid of it.

timestamp_insn_cnt is used to estimate the timestamp based on the number of
instructions since the last known timestamp.
If the estimate is not accurate enough decoding might not be correctly
synchronized with side-band events causing more trace errors.
However there are always timestamps following an overflow, so the
estimate is not needed and can indeed result in more errors.
Suppress the estimate by setting timestamp_insn_cnt to zero.

When a TIP packet is expected but there is a different packet, it is an
error. However the unexpected packet might be something important like a
TSC packet, so after the error, it is necessary to continue from there,
rather than the next packet. That is achieved by setting pkt_step to
zero.

sync_switch is a facility to synchronize decoding more closely with the
point in the kernel when the context actually switched.
The flag when sync_switch is enabled was global to the decoding, whereas
it is really specific to the CPU.
The trace data for different CPUs is put on different queues, so add
sync_switch to the intel_pt_queue structure and use that in preference
to the global setting in the intel_pt structure.
That fixes problems decoding one CPU's trace because sync_switch was
disabled on a different CPU's queue.
