Problem and motivation: Once a breakpoint perf event (PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT)
is created, there is no flexibility to change the breakpoint type
(bp_type), breakpoint address (bp_addr), or breakpoint length (bp_len). The
only option is to close the perf event and configure a new breakpoint
event. This inflexibility has a significant performance overhead. For
example, sampling-based, lightweight performance profilers (and also
concurrency bug detection tools), monitor different addresses for a short
duration using PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT and change the address (bp_addr) to
another address or change the kind of breakpoint (bp_type) from "write" to
a "read" or vice-versa or change the length (bp_len) of the address being
monitored. The cost of these modifications is prohibitive since it involves
unmapping the circular buffer associated with the perf event, closing the
perf event, opening another perf event and mmaping another circular buffer.
Solution: The new ioctl flag for perf events,
PERF_EVENT_IOC_MODIFY_ATTRIBUTES, introduced in this patch takes a pointer
to a struct perf_event_attr as an argument to update an old breakpoint
event with new address, type, and size. This facility allows retaining a
previous mmaped perf events ring buffer and avoids having to close and
reopen another perf event.
This patch supports only changing PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT event type; future
implementations can extend this feature. The patch replicates some of its
functionality of modify_user_hw_breakpoint() in
kernel/events/hw_breakpoint.c. modify_user_hw_breakpoint cannot be called
directly since perf_event_ctx_lock() is already held in _perf_ioctl().
Evidence: Experiments show that the baseline (not able to modify an already
created breakpoint) costs an order of magnitude (~10x) more than the
suggested optimization (having the ability to dynamically modifying a
configured breakpoint via ioctl). When the breakpoints typically do not
trap, the speedup due to the suggested optimization is ~10x; even when the
breakpoints always trap, the speedup is ~4x due to the suggested
optimization.
Testing: tests posted at
https://github.com/linux-contrib/perf_event_modify_bp demonstrate the
performance significance of this patch. Tests also check the functional
correctness of the patch.

Adding MEM_TOPOLOGY feature to perf data file,
that will carry physical memory map and its
node assignments.
The format of data in MEM_TOPOLOGY is as follows:
0 - version | for future changes
8 - block_size_bytes | /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes
16 - count | number of nodes
For each node we store map of physical indexes for
each node:
32 - node id | node index
40 - size | size of bitmap
48 - bitmap | bitmap of memory indexes that belongs to node
| /sys/devices/system/node/node<NODE>/memory<INDEX>
The MEM_TOPOLOGY could be displayed with following
report command:
$ perf report --header-only -I
...
# memory nodes (nr 1, block size 0x8000000):
# 0 [7G]: 0-23,32-69

====================
pull-request: bpf 2018-02-09
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Two fixes for BPF sockmap in order to break up circular map references
from programs attached to sockmap, and detaching related sockets in
case of socket close() event. For the latter we get rid of the
smap_state_change() and plug into ULP infrastructure, which will later
also be used for additional features anyway such as TX hooks. For the
second issue, dependency chain is broken up via map release callback
to free parse/verdict programs, all from John.
2) Fix a libbpf relocation issue that was found while implementing XDP
support for Suricata project. Issue was that when clang was invoked
with default target instead of bpf target, then various other e.g.
debugging relevant sections are added to the ELF file that contained
relocation entries pointing to non-BPF related sections which libbpf
trips over instead of skipping them. Test cases for libbpf are added
as well, from Jesper.
3) Various misc fixes for bpftool and one for libbpf: a small addition
to libbpf to make sure it recognizes all standard section prefixes.
Then, the Makefile in bpftool/Documentation is improved to explicitly
check for rst2man being installed on the system as we otherwise risk
installing empty man pages; the man page for bpftool-map is corrected
and a set of missing bash completions added in order to avoid shipping
bpftool where the completions are only partially working, from Quentin.
4) Fix applying the relocation to immediate load instructions in the
nfp JIT which were missing a shift, from Jakub.
5) Two fixes for the BPF kernel selftests: handle CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON=y
gracefully in test_bpf.ko module and mark them as FLAG_EXPECTED_FAIL
in this case; and explicitly delete the veth devices in the two tests
test_xdp_{meta,redirect}.sh before dismantling the netnses as when
selftests are run in batch mode, then workqueue to handle destruction
might not have finished yet and thus veth creation in next test under
same dev name would fail, from Yonghong.
6) Fix test_kmod.sh to check the test_bpf.ko module path before performing
an insmod, and fallback to modprobe. Especially the latter is useful
when having a device under test that has the modules installed instead,
from Naresh.

I recently fixed up a lot of commits that forgot to keep the tooling
headers in sync. And then I forgot to do the same thing in commit
cb5f7334d4 ("bpf: add comments to BPF ld/ldx sizes"). Let correct
that before people notice ;-).
Lawrence did partly fix/sync this for bpf.h in commit d6d4f60c3a

The changes in the 3214d01f13 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S: Provide information
about hardware/firmware CVE workarounds") commit right now will not
produce any change in the tools, but that is because we still need to
improve tools/perf/trace/beauty/kvm_ioctl.sh to build per arch string
tables, so that we avoid assigning multiple times to the same command
string entry, i.e. multiple defines, for different arches, have the same
value, causing this:
In file included from trace/beauty/ioctl.c:82:0:
/tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/generated/ioctl/kvm_ioctl_array.c: In function ‘ioctl__scnprintf_kvm_cmd’:
/tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/generated/ioctl/kvm_ioctl_array.c:76:11: error: initialized field overwritten [-Werror=override-init]
/tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/generated/ioctl/kvm_ioctl_array.c:88:11: note: (near initialization for ‘kvm_ioctl_cmds[165]’)

[0xa6] = "PPC_GET_SMMU_INFO",
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So the onlye effect of updating the tools/ copy of ppc's kvm.h header
is to silence these perf build warnings:
Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h' differs from latest version at 'include/uapi/linux/kvm.h'
Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h'
At some point we should do what we did for the errno tables and create
per-arch string translation tables for the KVM ioctl commands for the
architectures supporting KVM, such as s/390, PowerPC, x86_64 and ARM.

BPF map offload follow similar path to program offload. At creation
time users may specify ifindex of the device on which they want to
create the map. Map will be validated by the kernel's
.map_alloc_check callback and device driver will be called for the
actual allocation. Map will have an empty set of operations
associated with it (save for alloc and free callbacks). The real
device callbacks are kept in map->offload->dev_ops because they
have slightly different signatures. Map operations are called in
process context so the driver may communicate with HW freely,
msleep(), wait() etc.
Map alloc and free callbacks are muxed via existing .ndo_bpf, and
are always called with rtnl lock held. Maps and programs are
guaranteed to be destroyed before .ndo_uninit (i.e. before
unregister_netdev() returns). Map callbacks are invoked with
bpf_devs_lock *read* locked, drivers must take care of exclusive
locking if necessary.
All offload-specific branches are marked with unlikely() (through
bpf_map_is_dev_bound()), given that branch penalty will be
negligible compared to IO anyway, and we don't want to penalize
SW path unnecessarily.
