1. copy_insn() doesn't look very nice, all calculations are confusing and it is not immediately clear why do we read the 2nd page first. 2. The usage of inode->i_size is wrong on 32-bit machines. 3. "Instruction at end of binary" logic is simply wrong, it doesn't handle the case when uprobe->offset > inode->i_size. In this case "bytes" overflows, and __copy_insn() writes to the memory outside of uprobe->arch.insn. Yes, uprobe_register() checks i_size_read(), but this file can be truncated after that. All i_size checks are racy, we do this only to catch the obvious mistakes. Change copy_insn() to call __copy_insn() in a loop, simplify and fix the bytes/nbytes calculations. Note: we do not care if we read extra bytes after inode->i_size if we got the valid page. This is fine because the task gets the same page after page-fault, and arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() can't know how many bytes were actually read anyway. Signed-off-by:Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

Commit aa59c53f "uprobes: Change uprobe_copy_process() to dup xol_area" has a stupid typo, we need to setup t->utask->vaddr but the code wrongly uses current->utask. Even with this bug dup_xol_work() works "in practice", but only because get_unmapped_area(NULL, TASK_SIZE - PAGE_SIZE) likely returns the same address every time. Signed-off-by:

set_swbp() and set_orig_insn() are __weak, but this is pointless because write_opcode() is static. Export write_opcode() as uprobe_write_opcode() for the upcoming arm port, this way it can actually override set_swbp() and use __opcode_to_mem_arm(bpinsn) instead if UPROBE_SWBP_INSN. Signed-off-by: -

Currently xol_get_insn_slot() assumes that we should simply copy arch_uprobe->insn[] which is (ignoring arch_uprobe_analyze_insn) just the copy of the original insn. This is not true for arm which needs to create another insn to execute it out-of-line. So this patch simply adds the new member, ->ixol into the union. This doesn't make any difference for x86 and powerpc, but arm can divorce insn/ixol and initialize the correct xol insn in arch_uprobe_analyze_insn(). Signed-off-by: -

Turn module_init() into __initcall() and kill module_exit(). This code can't be compiled as a module so these module_*() calls only add the confusion, especially if arch-dependant code needs its own initialization hooks. Signed-off-by: -

Unlike other uncore boxes, IRP boxes live in PCI buses with no UBOX device. For PCI bus without UBOX device, we find the next bus that has UBOX device and use its 'bus to socket' mapping. Besides the counter/control registers in IRP boxes are not properly aligned. Signed-off-by:

While this is really minor, but strncpy() does the unnecessary zero-padding till the end of tmp[16] and it is called every time we are going to use the string literal. Turn these strncpy()'s into the single strlcpy() under the new label, saves 72 bytes. Signed-off-by:

The arch_perf_output_copy_user() default of __copy_from_user_inatomic() returns bytes not copied, while all other argument functions given DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() return bytes copied. Since copy_from_user_nmi() is the odd duck out by returning bytes copied where all other *copy_{to,from}* functions return bytes not copied, change it over and ammend DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() to expect bytes not copied. Oddly enough DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() already returned bytes not copied while expecting its worker functions to return bytes copied. Signed-off-by: -

Avoid touching the lost_event and sample_data cachelines twince. Its not like we end up doing less work, but it might help to keep all accesses to these cachelines in one place. Due to code shuffle, this looses 4 bytes on x86_64-defconfig. Signed-off-by:

There's no point in re-doing the memory-barrier when we fail the cmpxchg(). Also placing it after the space reservation loop makes it clearer it only separates the userpage->tail read from the data stores. Signed-off-by:

Add unlikely() annotations to 'slow' paths: When having a sampling event but no output buffer; you have bigger issues -- also the bail is still faster than actually doing the work. When having a sampling event but a control page only buffer, you have bigger issues -- again the bail is still faster than actually doing work. Optimize for the case where you're not loosing events -- again, not doing the work is still faster but make sure that when you have to actually do work its as fast as possible. The typical watermark is 1/2 the buffer size, so most events will not take this path. Shrinks perf_output_begin() by 16 bytes on x86_64-defconfig. Signed-off-by:

Adding the check for maximum allowed frequency rate defined in following file: /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate When we cross the maximum value we fail and display detailed error message with advise. $ perf record -F 3000 ls Maximum frequency rate (2000) reached. Please use -F freq option with lower value or consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate. In case user does not specify the frequency and the default value cross the maximum, we display warning and set the frequency value to the current maximum. $ perf record ls Lowering default frequency rate to 2000. Please consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate. Same messages are used for 'perf top'. Signed-off-by:

Shorten it, "finding" it is an implementation detail, what callers want is the pathname, not to ask for it to _always_ do the lookup. And the existing implementation already caches it, i.e. it doesn't "finds" it on every call.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) authored
Currently when using the raw format for fields, when looking at a character array, to determine if it is a string or not, we make sure all characters are "isprint()". If not, then we consider it a numeric array, and print the hex numbers of the characters instead. But it seems that '\n' fails the isprint() check! Add isspace() to the check as well, such that if all characters pass isprint() or isspace() it will assume the character array is a string. Reported-by:

The kernel has a few events with a format similar to this excerpt: field:unsigned int len; offset:12; size:4; signed:0; field:__data_loc unsigned char[] data_array; offset:16; size:4; signed:0; print fmt: "%s", __print_hex(__get_dynamic_array(data_array), REC->len) trace-cmd could already parse that arg correctly, but print_str_arg() was unable to handle the first parameter being a dynamic array. (It just printed a "field not found" warning). Teach print_str_arg's PRINT_HEX case to handle the nested PRINT_DYNAMIC_ARRAY correctly. The output now matches the kernel's own formatting for this case.
