There is a fairly obvious race between perf_init_event() doing
idr_find() and perf_pmu_register() doing idr_alloc() with an
incompletely initialized PMU pointer.
Avoid by doing idr_alloc() on a NULL pointer to register the id, and
swizzling the real struct pmu pointer at the end using idr_replace().
Also making sure to not set struct pmu members after publishing
the struct pmu, duh.
[ introduce idr_cmpxchg() in order to better handle the idr_replace()
error case -- if it were to return an unexpected pointer, it will
already have replaced the value and there is no going back. ]

Commit a63fbed776 ("perf/tracing/cpuhotplug: Fix locking order")
placed pmus_lock inside pmus_srcu, this makes perf_pmu_unregister()
trip lockdep.
Move the locking about such that only pmu_idr and pmus (list) are
modified while holding pmus_lock. This avoids doing synchronize_srcu()
while holding pmus_lock and all is well again.

Syskaller triggers a warning due to prev_epc->pmu != next_epc->pmu in
perf_event_swap_task_ctx_data(). vmcore shows that two lists have the same
perf_event_pmu_context, but not in the same order.
The problem is that the order of pmu_ctx_list for the parent is impacted by
the time when an event/PMU is added. While the order for a child is
impacted by the event order in the pinned_groups and flexible_groups. So
the order of pmu_ctx_list in the parent and child may be different.
To fix this problem, insert the perf_event_pmu_context to its proper place
after iteration of the pmu_ctx_list.
The follow testcase can trigger above warning:
# perf record -e cycles --call-graph lbr -- taskset -c 3 ./a.out &
# perf stat -e cpu-clock,cs -p xxx // xxx is the pid of a.out
test.c
void main() {
int count = 0;
pid_t pid;
printf("%d running\n", getpid());
sleep(30);
printf("running\n");
pid = fork();
if (pid == -1) {
printf("fork error\n");
return;
}
if (pid == 0) {
while (1) {
count++;
}
} else {
while (1) {
count++;
}
}
}
The testcase first opens an LBR event, so it will allocate task_ctx_data,
and then open tracepoint and software events, so the parent context will
have 3 different perf_event_pmu_contexts. On inheritance, child ctx will
insert the perf_event_pmu_context in another order and the warning will
trigger.

We are adjusting struct page to make it smaller, removing unneeded fields
which correctly belong to struct folio.
Two of those fields are page->index and page->mapping. Perf is currently
making use of both of these. This is unnecessary. This patch eliminates
this.
Perf establishes its own internally controlled memory-mapped pages using
vm_ops hooks. The first page in the mapping is the read/write user control
page, and the rest of the mapping consists of read-only pages.
The VMA is backed by kernel memory either from the buddy allocator or
vmalloc depending on configuration. It is intended to be mapped read/write,
but because it has a page_mkwrite() hook, vma_wants_writenotify() indicates
that it should be mapped read-only.
When a write fault occurs, the provided page_mkwrite() hook,
perf_mmap_fault() (doing double duty handing faults as well) uses the
vmf->pgoff field to determine if this is the first page, allowing for the
desired read/write first page, read-only rest mapping.
For this to work the implementation has to carefully work around faulting
logic. When a page is write-faulted, the fault() hook is called first, then
its page_mkwrite() hook is called (to allow for dirty tracking in file
systems).
On fault we set the folio's mapping in perf_mmap_fault(), this is because
when do_page_mkwrite() is subsequently invoked, it treats a missing mapping
as an indicator that the fault should be retried.
We also set the folio's index so, given the folio is being treated as faux
user memory, it correctly references its offset within the VMA.
This explains why the mapping and index fields are used - but it's not
necessary.
We preallocate pages when perf_mmap() is called for the first time via
rb_alloc(), and further allocate auxiliary pages via rb_aux_alloc() as
needed if the mapping requires it.
This allocation is done in the f_ops->mmap() hook provided in perf_mmap(),
and so we can instead simply map all the memory right away here - there's
no point in handling (read) page faults when we don't demand page nor need
to be notified about them (perf does not).
This patch therefore changes this logic to map everything when the mmap()
hook is called, establishing a PFN map. It implements vm_ops->pfn_mkwrite()
to provide the required read/write vs. read-only behaviour, which does not
require the previously implemented workarounds.
While it is not ideal to use a VM_PFNMAP here, doing anything else will
result in the page_mkwrite() hook need to be provided, which requires the
same page->mapping hack this patch seeks to undo.
It will also result in the pages being treated as folios and placed on the
rmap, which really does not make sense for these mappings.
Semantically it makes sense to establish this as some kind of special
mapping, as the pages are managed by perf and are not strictly user pages,
but currently the only means by which we can do so functionally while
maintaining the required R/W and R/O behaviour is a PFN map.
There should be no change to actual functionality as a result of this
change.

Currently, space for raw sample data is always allocated within sample
records for both BPF output and tracepoint events. This leads to unused
space in sample records when raw sample data is not requested.
This patch enforces checking sample type of an event in
perf_sample_save_raw_data(). So raw sample data will only be saved if
explicitly requested, reducing overhead when it is not needed.

Previously any PMU overflow interrupt that fired while a VCPU was
loaded was recorded as a guest event whether it truly was or not. This
resulted in nonsense perf recordings that did not honor
perf_event_attr.exclude_guest and recorded guest IPs where it should
have recorded host IPs.
Rework the sampling logic to only record guest samples for events with
exclude_guest = 0. This way any host-only events with exclude_guest
set will never see unexpected guest samples. The behaviour of events
with exclude_guest = 0 is unchanged.
Note that events configured to sample both host and guest may still
misattribute a PMI that arrived in the host as a guest event depending
on KVM arch and vendor behavior.

Hardware traces, such as instruction traces, can produce a vast amount of
trace data, so being able to reduce tracing to more specific circumstances
can be useful.
The ability to pause or resume tracing when another event happens, can do
that.
Add ability for an event to "pause" or "resume" AUX area tracing.
Add aux_pause bit to perf_event_attr to indicate that, if the event
happens, the associated AUX area tracing should be paused. Ditto
aux_resume. Do not allow aux_pause and aux_resume to be set together.
Add aux_start_paused bit to perf_event_attr to indicate to an AUX area
event that it should start in a "paused" state.
Add aux_paused to struct hw_perf_event for AUX area events to keep track of
the "paused" state. aux_paused is initialized to aux_start_paused.
Add PERF_EF_PAUSE and PERF_EF_RESUME modes for ->stop() and ->start()
callbacks. Call as needed, during __perf_event_output(). Add
aux_in_pause_resume to struct perf_buffer to prevent races with the NMI
handler. Pause/resume in NMI context will miss out if it coincides with
another pause/resume.
To use aux_pause or aux_resume, an event must be in a group with the AUX
area event as the group leader.
Example (requires Intel PT and tools patches also):

Lift fdget() and fdput() out of perf_fget_light(), turning it into
is_perf_file(struct fd f). The life gets easier in both callers
if we do fdget() unconditionally, including the case when we are
given -1 instead of a descriptor - that avoids a reassignment in
perf_event_open(2) and it avoids a nasty temptation in _perf_ioctl()
where we must *not* lift output_event out of scope for output.

Sean noted that ever since commit 152e11f6df ("sched/fair: Implement
delayed dequeue") KVM's preemption notifiers have started
mis-classifying preemption vs blocking.
Notably p->on_rq is no longer sufficient to determine if a task is
runnable or blocked -- the aforementioned commit introduces tasks that
remain on the runqueue even through they will not run again, and
should be considered blocked for many cases.
Add the task_is_runnable() helper to classify things and audit all
external users of the p->on_rq state. Also add a few comments.

no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b144
("fs: remove no_llseek")
To quote that commit,
At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek -
git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do
sed -i '/\<no_llseek\>/d' $i
done
would do it.
Unfortunately, that hadn't been done. Linus, could you do that now, so
that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the
form
.llseek = no_llseek,
so it's obviously safe.

The perf_event_init_cpu() may be invoked at the early boot stage, while
the topology_*_cpumask hasn't been initialized yet. The check is to
specially handle the case, and initialize the perf_online_<domain>_masks
on the boot CPU.
X86 uses a per-cpu cpumask pointer, which could be NULL at the early
boot stage. However, ARM uses a global variable, which never be NULL.
Use perf_online_mask as an indicator instead. Only initialize the
perf_online_<domain>_masks when perf_online_mask is empty.
Fix a typo as well.

Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov:
- Introduce '__attribute__((bpf_fastcall))' for helpers and kfuncs with
corresponding support in LLVM.
It is similar to existing 'no_caller_saved_registers' attribute in
GCC/LLVM with a provision for backward compatibility. It allows
compilers generate more efficient BPF code assuming the verifier or
JITs will inline or partially inline a helper/kfunc with such
attribute. bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx, bpf_rdonly_cast,
bpf_get_smp_processor_id are the first set of such helpers.
- Harden and extend ELF build ID parsing logic.
When called from sleepable context the relevants parts of ELF file
will be read to find and fetch .note.gnu.build-id information. Also
harden the logic to avoid TOCTOU, overflow, out-of-bounds problems.
- Improvements and fixes for sched-ext:
- Allow passing BPF iterators as kfunc arguments
- Make the pointer returned from iter_next method trusted
- Fix x86 JIT convergence issue due to growing/shrinking conditional
jumps in variable length encoding
- BPF_LSM related:
- Introduce few VFS kfuncs and consolidate them in
fs/bpf_fs_kfuncs.c
- Enforce correct range of return values from certain LSM hooks
- Disallow attaching to other LSM hooks
- Prerequisite work for upcoming Qdisc in BPF:
- Allow kptrs in program provided structs
- Support for gen_epilogue in verifier_ops
- Important fixes:
- Fix uprobe multi pid filter check
- Fix bpf_strtol and bpf_strtoul helpers
- Track equal scalars history on per-instruction level
- Fix tailcall hierarchy on x86 and arm64
- Fix signed division overflow to prevent INT_MIN/-1 trap on x86
- Fix get kernel stack in BPF progs attached to tracepoint:syscall
- Selftests:
- Add uprobe bench/stress tool
- Generate file dependencies to drastically improve re-build time
- Match JIT-ed and BPF asm with __xlated/__jited keywords
- Convert older tests to test_progs framework
- Add support for RISC-V
- Few fixes when BPF programs are compiled with GCC-BPF backend
(support for GCC-BPF in BPF CI is ongoing in parallel)
- Add traffic monitor
- Enable cross compile and musl libc
