      perf tools: Improve error reporting · ffa91880
      Adrien BAK authored
      In the current version, when using perf record, if something goes
      wrong in tools/perf/builtin-record.c:375
        session = perf_session__new(file, false, NULL);
      
      The error message:
      "Not enough memory for reading per file header"
      
      is issued. This error message seems to be outdated and is not very
      helpful. This patch proposes to replace this error message by
      "Perf session creation failed"
      
      I believe this issue has been brought to lkml:
      https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/24/458
      although this patch only tackles a (small) part of the issue.
      
      Additionnaly, this patch improves error reporting in
      tools/perf/util/data.c open_file_write.
      
      Currently, if the call to open fails, the user is unaware of it.
      This patch logs the error, before returning the error code to
      the caller.

      perf tools: Adjust symbols in VDSO · 922d0e4d
      Vladimir Nikulichev authored
      pert-report doesn't resolve function names in VDSO:
      
      $ perf report --stdio -g flat,0.0,15,callee --sort pid
      ...
                  8.76%
                     0x7fff6b1fe861
                     __gettimeofday
                     ACE_OS::gettimeofday()
      ...
      
      In this case symbol values should be adjusted the same way as for executables,
      relocatable objects and prelinked libraries.
      
      After fix:
      
      $ perf report --stdio -g flat,0.0,15,callee --sort pid
      ...
                  8.76%

      perf kvm: Fix 'Min time' counting in report command · acb61fc8
      Alexander Yarygin authored
      Every event in the perf-kvm has a 'stats' structure, which contains
      max/min/average/etc times of handling this event.
      The problem is that the 'perf-kvm stat report' command always shows
      that 'min time' is 0us for every event. Example:
      
       # perf kvm stat report
      
       Analyze events for all VCPUs:
      
          VM-EXIT    Samples  Samples%     Time%   Min Time   Max Time Avg time
        [..]
        0xB2 MSCH         12     0.07%     0.00%        0us        8us 7.31us ( +-   2.11% )
        0xB2 CHSC         12     0.07%     0.00%        0us       18us 9.39us ( +-   9.49% )
        0xB2 STPX          8     0.05%     0.00%        0us        2us 1.88us ( +-   7.18% )
        0xB2 STSI          7     0.04%     0.00%        0us       44us 16.49us ( +-  38.20% )
        [..]
      
      This happens because the 'stats' structure is not initialized and
      stats->min equals to 0. Lets initialize the structure for every
      event after its allocation using init_stats() function. This initializes
      stats->min to -1 and makes 'Min time' statistics counting work:
      
       # perf kvm stat report
      
       Analyze events for all VCPUs:
      
          VM-EXIT    Samples  Samples%     Time%   Min Time   Max Time Avg time
        [..]
        0xB2 MSCH         12     0.07%     0.00%        6us        8us 7.31us ( +-   2.11% )

      coredump: fix va_list corruption · 404ca80e
      Eric Dumazet authored
      A va_list needs to be copied in case it needs to be used twice.
      
      Thanks to Hugh for debugging this issue, leading to various panics.
      
      Tested:
      
        lpq84:~# echo "|/foobar12345 %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h" >/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
      
      'produce_core' is simply : main() { *(int *)0 = 1;}
      
        lpq84:~# ./produce_core
        Segmentation fault (core dumped)
        lpq84:~# dmesg | tail -1
        [  614.352947] Core dump to |/foobar12345 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 lpq84 (null) pipe failed
      
      Notice the last argument was replaced by a NULL (we were lucky enough to
      not crash, but do not try this on your production machine !)
      
      After fix :
      
        lpq83:~# echo "|/foobar12345 %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h %h" >/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern

      thp: close race between split and zap huge pages · b5a8cad3
      Kirill A. Shutemov authored
      Sasha Levin has reported two THP BUGs[1][2].  I believe both of them
      have the same root cause.  Let's look to them one by one.
      
      The first bug[1] is "kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1829!".  It's
      BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) in __split_huge_page().  From my
      testing I see that page_mapcount() is higher than mapcount here.
      
      I think it happens due to race between zap_huge_pmd() and
      page_check_address_pmd().  page_check_address_pmd() misses PMD which is
      under zap:
      
      	CPU0						CPU1
      						zap_huge_pmd()
      						  pmdp_get_and_clear()
      __split_huge_page()
        anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach()
          __split_huge_page_splitting()
            page_check_address_pmd()
              mm_find_pmd()
      	  /*
      	   * We check if PMD present without taking ptl: no
      	   * serialization against zap_huge_pmd(). We miss this PMD,
      	   * it's not accounted to 'mapcount' in __split_huge_page().
      	   */
      	  pmd_present(pmd) == 0
      
        BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) // CRASH!!!
      
      						  page_remove_rmap(page)
      						    atomic_add_negative(-1, &page->_mapcount)
      
      The second bug[2] is "kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1371!".
      It's VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageHead(page), page) in zap_huge_pmd().
      
      This happens in similar way:
      
      	CPU0						CPU1
      						zap_huge_pmd()
      						  pmdp_get_and_clear()
      						  page_remove_rmap(page)
      						    atomic_add_negative(-1, &page->_mapcount)
      __split_huge_page()
        anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach()
          __split_huge_page_splitting()
            page_check_address_pmd()
              mm_find_pmd()
      	  pmd_present(pmd) == 0	/* The same comment as above */
        /*
         * No crash this time since we already decremented page->_mapcount in
         * zap_huge_pmd().
         */
        BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page))
      
        /*
         * We split the compound page here into small pages without
         * serialization against zap_huge_pmd()
         */
        __split_huge_page_refcount()
      						VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageHead(page), page); // CRASH!!!
      
      So my understanding the problem is pmd_present() check in mm_find_pmd()
      without taking page table lock.
      
      The bug was introduced by me commit with commit 117b0791. Sorry for
      that. :(
      
      Let's open code mm_find_pmd() in page_check_address_pmd() and do the
      check under page table lock.
      
      Note that __page_check_address() does the same for PTE entires
      if sync != 0.
      
      I've stress tested split and zap code paths for 36+ hours by now and
      don't see crashes with the patch applied. Before it took <20 min to
      trigger the first bug and few hours for second one (if we ignore
      first).

      mm: use paravirt friendly ops for NUMA hinting ptes · 29c77870
      Mel Gorman authored
      David Vrabel identified a regression when using automatic NUMA balancing
      under Xen whereby page table entries were getting corrupted due to the
      use of native PTE operations.  Quoting him
      
      	Xen PV guest page tables require that their entries use machine
      	addresses if the preset bit (_PAGE_PRESENT) is set, and (for
      	successful migration) non-present PTEs must use pseudo-physical
      	addresses.  This is because on migration MFNs in present PTEs are
      	translated to PFNs (canonicalised) so they may be translated back
      	to the new MFN in the destination domain (uncanonicalised).
      
      	pte_mknonnuma(), pmd_mknonnuma(), pte_mknuma() and pmd_mknuma()
      	set and clear the _PAGE_PRESENT bit using pte_set_flags(),
      	pte_clear_flags(), etc.
      
      	In a Xen PV guest, these functions must translate MFNs to PFNs
      	when clearing _PAGE_PRESENT and translate PFNs to MFNs when setting
      	_PAGE_PRESENT.
      
      His suggested fix converted p[te|md]_[set|clear]_flags to using
      paravirt-friendly ops but this is overkill.  He suggested an alternative
      of using p[te|md]_modify in the NUMA page table operations but this is
      does more work than necessary and would require looking up a VMA for
      protections.
      
      This patch modifies the NUMA page table operations to use paravirt
      friendly operations to set/clear the flags of interest.  Unfortunately
      this will take a performance hit when updating the PTEs on
      CONFIG_PARAVIRT but I do not see a way around it that does not break
      Xen.
