* x86 / perf: Fix suspend to RAM on HP nx6325Rafael J. Wysocki2010-03-221-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 3f6da3905398826d85731247e7fbcf53400c18bd (perf: Rework and fix the arch CPU-hotplug hooks) broke suspend to RAM on my HP nx6325 (and most likely on other AMD-based boxes too) by allowing amd_pmu_cpu_offline() to be executed for CPUs that are going offline as part of the suspend process. The problem is that cpuhw->amd_nb may be NULL already, so the function should make sure it's not NULL before accessing the object pointed to by it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

| * perf: Fix unexported generic perf_arch_fetch_caller_regsFrederic Weisbecker2010-03-171-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs() is exported for the overriden x86 version, but not for the generic weak version. As a general rule, weak functions should not have their symbol exported in the same file they are defined. So let's export it on trace_event_perf.c as it is used by trace events only. This fixes: ERROR: ".perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs" [fs/xfs/xfs.ko] undefined!

Now, in our RR example, n_running == 0 because we fully unscheduled, so event-50 will retain its idx==32, even though in scheduling it will have gotten idx=0, and we don't trigger the re-assign path. The easiest way to fix this is the below patch, which simply validates the full assignment in the second pass.

| * perf: Introduce new perf_fetch_caller_regs() for hot regs snapshotFrederic Weisbecker2010-03-102-0/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Events that trigger overflows by interrupting a context can use get_irq_regs() or task_pt_regs() to retrieve the state when the event triggered. But this is not the case for some other class of events like trace events as tracepoints are executed in the same context than the code that triggered the event. It means we need a different api to capture the regs there, namely we need a hot snapshot to get the most important informations for perf: the instruction pointer to get the event origin, the frame pointer for the callchain, the code segment for user_mode() tests (we always use __KERNEL_CS as trace events always occur from the kernel) and the eflags for further purposes. v2: rename perf_save_regs to perf_fetch_caller_regs as per Masami's suggestion.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hw_perf_enable() would enable already enabled events. This causes problems with code that assumes that ->enable/->disable calls are balanced (like the LBR code does). What happens is that events that were already running and left in place would get enabled again. Avoid this by only enabling new events that match their previous assignment.

The sched_clock_cpu() function is returning values that can go backwards (I've seen as much as 8 seconds) when switching between cpus. As each cpu comes up, early_init_intel() will currently set the sched_clock_stable flag true. When mark_tsc_unstable() runs, it clears the flag, but this only occurs once (the first time a cpu comes up whose TSC is not synchronized with cpu 0). After this, early_init_intel() will set the flag again as the next cpu comes up. Only set sched_clock_stable if tsc has not been marked unstable.

One side effect of it is that num_k8_northbridges is not initialized anymore if not explicitly called. This resulted in uninitialized pointers in <arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c:amd_calc_l3_indices()>, for example, which uses the num_k8_northbridges thing through node_to_k8_nb_misc(). Fix that through an initcall that runs right after the PCI subsystem and does all the scanning. Then, remove initialization in gart_iommu_init() which is a rootfs_initcall and we're running before that. What is more, since num_k8_northbridges is being used in other places beside GART IOMMU, include it whenever we add AMD CPU support. The previous dependency chain in kconfig contained K8_NB depends on AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU which was clearly incorrect. The more natural way in terms of hardware dependency should be AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU depends on K8_NB depends on CPU_SUP_AMD && PCI. Make it so Number One!

However, kernel identity mappings will have different RWX permissions to the pages mapping to text and to the pages padding (which are freed) the text, rodata sections. Hence kernel identity mappings will be broken to smaller pages. For 64-bit, kernel text and kernel identity mappings are different, so we can enable protection checks that come with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, as well as retain 2MB large page mappings for kernel text. Konrad reported a boot failure with the Linux Xen paravirt guest because of this. In this paravirt guest case, the kernel text mapping and the kernel identity mapping share the same page-table pages. Thus forcing the !RW mapping for some of the kernel mappings also cause the kernel identity mappings to be read-only resulting in the boot failure. Linux Xen paravirt guest also uses 4k mappings and don't use 2M mapping. Fix this issue and retain large page performance advantage for native kernels by not working hard and not enforcing !RW for the kernel text mapping, if the current mapping is already using small page mapping.

Those are usually checked for safety in stack walking helpers before any dereferencing, but this is not the case when we need to go through one more frame pointer that backlinks the irq stack to the previous one, as we don't have any reliable address boudaries to compare this frame pointer against. This raises crashes when we record callchains for ftrace events with perf because we don't use the right helpers to capture registers there. We get wrong frame pointers as we call task_pt_regs() even on kernel threads, which is a wrong thing as it gives us the initial state of any kernel threads freshly created. This is even not what we want for user tasks. What we want is a hot snapshot of registers when the ftrace event triggers, not the state before a task entered the kernel. This requires more thoughts to do it correctly though. So first put a guardian to ensure the given frame pointer can be dereferenced to avoid crashes. We'll think about how to fix the callers in a subsequent patch. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: H.

We never deal with target symbols in the arch level, neither do we need to ever store it. It's a legacy for the previous version of the x86 breakpoint backend. Let's remove it.

It means that if we have more than sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate/HZ, perf will throttle, ignoring subsequent events until the next tick. So if ptrace exceeds this max rate, it will omit events, which breaks the ptrace determinism that is supposed to report every triggered breakpoints. This is likely to happen if we set sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate to 1. This patch removes support for unthrottling in breakpoint events to break throttling and restore ptrace determinism.
