It basically traverses the hardware and software event name arrays creating an evlist with all events, then it uses perf_evsel__name to check that the name is the expected one. With it I noticed this problem: [root@sandy ~]# perf test 10 10: roundtrip evsel->name check:invalid or unsupported event: 'CPU-migrations' Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events FAILED! Changed it to "cpu-migrations" in the software event arrays and it worked. This is to catch problems like the one reported by Joel Uckelman in http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.perf.user/1016 Hardware cache events will be checked in the following patch.

Current perf_evlist__set_tracepoint_names is a misnomer because it finds and sets correspoding event_format in addition to the name. So skipping it when a event has set name already caused a trouble.

Add the new MMF_HAS_UPROBES flag. It is set by install_breakpoint() and it is copied by dup_mmap(), uprobe_pre_sstep_notifier() checks it to avoid the slow path if the task was never probed. Perhaps it makes sense to check it in valid_vma(is_register => false) as well. This needs the new dup_mmap()->uprobe_dup_mmap() hook. We can't use uprobe_reset_state() or put MMF_HAS_UPROBES into MMF_INIT_MASK, we need oldmm->mmap_sem to avoid the race with uprobe_register() or mmap() from another thread. Currently we never clear this bit, it can be false-positive after uprobe_unregister() or uprobe_munmap() or if dup_mmap() hits the probed VM_DONTCOPY vma. But this is fine correctness-wise and has no effect unless the task hits the non-uprobe breakpoint.

Once install_breakpoint() fails uprobe_mmap() "ignores" all other uprobes and returns the error. It was never really needed to to stop after the first error, and in fact it was always wrong at least in -ENOTSUPP case. Change uprobe_mmap() to ignore the errors and always return 0. This is not what we want in the long term, but until we teach the callers to handle the failure it would be better to remove the pointless complications. And this doesn't look too bad, the only "reasonable" error is ENOMEM but in this case the caller should be oom-killed in the likely case or the system has more serious problems. However it makes sense to stop if fatal_signal_pending() == T. In particular this helps if the task was oom-killed.

1. Kill dup_mmap()->uprobe_mmap(), it was only needed to calculate new_mm->uprobes_state.count removed by the previous patch. If the forking process has a pending uprobe (int3) in vma, it will be copied by copy_page_range(), note that it checks vma->anon_vma so "Don't copy ptes" is not possible after install_breakpoint() which does anon_vma_prepare(). 2. Remove is_swbp_at_addr() and "int count" in uprobe_mmap(). Again, this was needed for uprobes_state.count. As a side effect this fixes the bug pointed out by Srikar, this code lacked the necessary put_uprobe(). 3. uprobe_munmap() becomes a nop after the previous patch. Remove the meaningless code but do not remove the helper, we will need it. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

uprobes_state->count is only needed to avoid the slow path in uprobe_pre_sstep_notifier(). It is also checked in uprobe_munmap() but ironically its only goal to decrement this counter. However, it is very broken. Just some examples: - uprobe_mmap() can race with uprobe_unregister() and wrongly increment the counter if it hits the non-uprobe "int3". Note that install_breakpoint() checks ->consumers first and returns -EEXIST if it is NULL. "atomic_sub() if error" in uprobe_mmap() looks obviously wrong too. - uprobe_munmap() can race with uprobe_register() and wrongly decrement the counter by the same reason. - Suppose an appication tries to increase the mmapped area via sys_mremap(). vma_adjust() does uprobe_munmap(whole_vma) first, this can nullify the counter temporarily and race with another thread which can hit the bp, the application will be killed by SIGTRAP. - Suppose an application mmaps 2 consecutive areas in the same file and one (or both) of these areas has uprobes. In the likely case mmap_region()->vma_merge() suceeds. Like above, this leads to uprobe_munmap/uprobe_mmap from vma_merge()->vma_adjust() but then mmap_region() does another uprobe_mmap(resulting_vma) and doubles the counter. This patch only removes this counter and fixes the compile errors, then we will try to cleanup the changed code and add something else instead.

Under certain workloads we see the following warnings: WQ on CPU0, prefer CPU1 WQ on CPU0, prefer CPU2 WQ on CPU0, prefer CPU3 It warns the user that the wq to access a per-cpu buffers runs not on the same cpu. This happens if the wq is rescheduled on a different cpu than where the buffer is located. This was probably implemented to detect performance issues. Not sure if there actually is one as the buffers are copied to a single buffer anyway which should be the actual bottleneck. We wont change WQ implementation. Since a user can do nothing the warning is pointless. Removing it. Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
