Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
"perf tools maintainership:
- Add git information for perf-tools and perf-tools-next trees and
branches to the MAINTAINERS file. That is where development now
takes place and myself and Namhyung Kim have write access, more
people to come as we emulate other maintainer groups.
perf record:
- Record kernel data maps when 'perf record --data' is used, so that
global variables can be resolved and used in tools that do data
profiling.
perf trace:
- Remove the old, experimental support for BPF events in which a .c
file was passed as an event: "perf trace -e hello.c" to then get
compiled and loaded.
The only known usage for that, that shipped with the kernel as an
example for such events, augmented the raw_syscalls tracepoints and
was converted to a libbpf skeleton, reusing all the user space
components and the BPF code connected to the syscalls.
In the end just the way to glue the BPF part and the user space
type beautifiers changed, now being performed by libbpf skeletons.
The next step is to use BTF to do pretty printing of all syscall
types, as discussed with Alan Maguire and others.
Now, on a perf built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 we get most if not all
path/filenames/strings, some of the networking data structures,
perf_event_attr, etc, i.e. systemwide tracing of nanosleep calls
and perf_event_open syscalls while 'perf stat' runs 'sleep' for 5
seconds:

perf annotate:
- Building with binutils' libopcode now is opt-in (BUILD_NONDISTRO=1)
for licensing reasons, and we missed a build test on
tools/perf/tests makefile.
Since we now default to NDEBUG=1, we ended up segfaulting when
building with BUILD_NONDISTRO=1 because a needed initialization
routine was being "error checked" via an assert.
Fix it by explicitly checking the result and aborting instead if it
fails.
We better back propagate the error, but at least 'perf annotate' on
samples collected for a BPF program is back working when perf is
built with BUILD_NONDISTRO=1.
perf report/top:
- Add back TUI hierarchy mode header, that is seen when using 'perf
report/top --hierarchy'.
- Fix the number of entries for 'e' key in the TUI that was
preventing navigation of lines when expanding an entry.
perf report/script:
- Support cross platform register handling, allowing a perf.data file
collected on one architecture to have registers sampled correctly
displayed when analysis tools such as 'perf report' and 'perf
script' are used on a different architecture.
- Fix handling of event attributes in pipe mode, i.e. when one uses:
perf record -o - | perf report -i -
When no perf.data files are used.
- Handle files generated via pipe mode with a version of perf and
then read also via pipe mode with a different version of perf,
where the event attr record may have changed, use the record size
field to properly support this version mismatch.
perf probe:
- Accessing global variables from uprobes isn't supported, make the
error message state that instead of stating that some minimal
kernel version is needed to have that feature. This seems just a
tool limitation, the kernel probably has all that is needed.
perf tests:
- Fix a reference count related leak in the dlfilter v0 API where the
result of a thread__find_symbol_fb() is not matched with an
addr_location__exit() to drop the reference counts of the resolved
components (machine, thread, map, symbol, etc). Add a dlfilter test
to make sure that doesn't regresses.
- Lots of fixes for the 'perf test' written in shell script related
to problems found with the shellcheck utility.
- Fixes for 'perf test' shell scripts testing features enabled when
perf is built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1, such as 'perf stat' bpf
counters.
- Add perf record sample filtering test, things like the following
example, that gets implemented as a BPF filter attached to the
event:
# perf record -e task-clock -c 10000 --filter 'ip < 0xffffffff00000000'
- Improve the way the task_analyzer test checks if libtraceevent is
linked, using 'perf version --build-options' instead of the more
expensinve 'perf record -e "sched:sched_switch"'.
- Add support for riscv in the mmap-basic test. (This went as well
via the RiscV tree, same contents).
libperf:
- Implement riscv mmap support (This went as well via the RiscV tree,
same contents).
perf script:
- New tool that converts perf.data files to the firefox profiler
format so that one can use the visualizer at
https://profiler.firefox.com/. Done by Anup Sharma as part of this
year's Google Summer of Code.
One can generate the output and upload it to the web interface but
Anup also automated everything:
perf script gecko -F 99 -a sleep 60
- Support syscall name parsing on arm64.
- Print "cgroup" field on the same line as "comm".
perf bench:
- Add new 'uprobe' benchmark to measure the overhead of uprobes
with/without BPF programs attached to it.
- breakpoints are not available on power9, skip that test.
perf stat:
- Add #num_cpus_online literal to be used in 'perf stat' metrics, and
add this extra 'perf test' check that exemplifies its purpose:
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus_online",
expr__parse(&num_cpus_online, ctx, "#num_cpus_online") == 0);
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus", expr__parse(&num_cpus, ctx, "#num_cpus") == 0);
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus >= #num_cpus_online", num_cpus >= num_cpus_online);
Miscellaneous:
- Improve tool startup time by lazily reading PMU, JSON, sysfs data.
- Improve error reporting in the parsing of events, passing YYLTYPE
to error routines, so that the output can show were the parsing
error was found.
- Add 'perf test' entries to check the parsing of events
improvements.
- Fix various leak for things detected by -fsanitize=address, mostly
things that would be freed at tool exit, including:
- Free evsel->filter on the destructor.
- Allow tools to register a thread->priv destructor and use it in
'perf trace'.
- Free evsel->priv in 'perf trace'.
- Free string returned by synthesize_perf_probe_point() when the
caller fails to do all it needs.
- Adjust various compiler options to not consider errors some
warnings when building with broken headers found in things like
python, flex, bison, as we otherwise build with -Werror. Some for
gcc, some for clang, some for some specific version of those, some
for some specific version of flex or bison, or some specific
combination of these components, bah.
- Allow customization of clang options for BPF target, this helps
building on gentoo where there are other oddities where BPF targets
gets passed some compiler options intended for the native build, so
building with WERROR=0 helps while these oddities are fixed.
- Dont pass ERR_PTR() values to perf_session__delete() in 'perf top'
and 'perf lock', fixing some segfaults when handling some odd
failures.
- Add LTO build option.
- Fix format of unordered lists in the perf docs
(tools/perf/Documentation)
- Overhaul the bison files, using constructs such as YYNOMEM.
- Remove unused tokens from the bison .y files.
- Add more comments to various structs.
- A few LoongArch enablement patches.
Vendor events (JSON):
- Add JSON metrics for Yitian 710 DDR (aarch64). Things like:
EventName, BriefDescription
visible_window_limit_reached_rd, "At least one entry in read queue reaches the visible window limit.",
visible_window_limit_reached_wr, "At least one entry in write queue reaches the visible window limit.",
op_is_dqsosc_mpc , "A DQS Oscillator MPC command to DRAM.",
op_is_dqsosc_mrr , "A DQS Oscillator MRR command to DRAM.",
op_is_tcr_mrr , "A Temperature Compensated Refresh(TCR) MRR command to DRAM.",
- Add AmpereOne metrics (aarch64).
- Update N2 and V2 metrics (aarch64) and events using Arm telemetry
repo.
- Update scale units and descriptions of common topdown metrics on
aarch64. Things like:
- "MetricExpr": "stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles)",
- "BriefDescription": "Frontend bound L1 topdown metric",
+ "MetricExpr": "100 * (stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles))",
+ "BriefDescription": "This metric is the percentage of total slots that were stalled due to resource constraints in the frontend of the processor.",
- Update events for intel: meteorlake to 1.04, sapphirerapids to
1.15, Icelake+ metric constraints.
- Update files for the power10 platform"

Pull io_uring fixes from Jens Axboe:
"A few fixes that should go into the 6.6-rc merge window:
- Fix for a regression this merge window caused by the SQPOLL
affinity patch, where we can race with SQPOLL thread shutdown and
cause an oops when trying to set affinity (Gabriel)
- Fix for a regression this merge window where fdinfo reading with
for a ring setup with IORING_SETUP_NO_SQARRAY will attempt to
deference the non-existing SQ ring array (me)
- Add the patch that allows more finegrained control over who can use
io_uring (Matteo)
- Locking fix for a regression added this merge window for IOPOLL
overflow (Pavel)
- IOPOLL fix for stable, breaking our loop if helper threads are
exiting (Pavel)
Also had a fix for unreaped iopoll requests from io-wq from Ming, but
we found an issue with that and hence it got reverted. Will get this
sorted for a future rc"

Introduce a new sysctl (io_uring_disabled) which can be either 0, 1, or
2. When 0 (the default), all processes are allowed to create io_uring
instances, which is the current behavior. When 1, io_uring creation is
disabled (io_uring_setup() will fail with -EPERM) for unprivileged
processes not in the kernel.io_uring_group group. When 2, calls to
io_uring_setup() fail with -EPERM regardless of privilege.

Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo:
- Unbound workqueues now support more flexible affinity scopes.
The default behavior is to soft-affine according to last level cache
boundaries. A work item queued from a given LLC is executed by a
worker running on the same LLC but the worker may be moved across
cache boundaries as the scheduler sees fit. On machines which
multiple L3 caches, which are becoming more popular along with
chiplet designs, this improves cache locality while not harming work
conservation too much.
Unbound workqueues are now also a lot more flexible in terms of
execution affinity. Differeing levels of affinity scopes are
supported and both the default and per-workqueue affinity settings
can be modified dynamically. This should help working around amny of
sub-optimal behaviors observed recently with asymmetric ARM CPUs.
This involved signficant restructuring of workqueue code. Nothing was
reported yet but there's some risk of subtle regressions. Should keep
an eye out.
- Rescuer workers now has more identifiable comms.
- workqueue.unbound_cpus added so that CPUs which can be used by
workqueue can be constrained early during boot.
- Now that all the in-tree users have been flushed out, trigger warning
if system-wide workqueues are flushed.

Chen Jiahao <chenjiahao16@huawei.com> says:
On riscv, the current crash kernel allocation logic is trying to
allocate within 32bit addressible memory region by default, if
failed, try to allocate without 4G restriction.
In need of saving DMA zone memory while allocating a relatively large
crash kernel region, allocating the reserved memory top down in
high memory, without overlapping the DMA zone, is a mature solution.
Hence this patchset introduces the parameter option crashkernel=X,[high,low].
One can reserve the crash kernel from high memory above DMA zone range
by explicitly passing "crashkernel=X,high"; or reserve a memory range
below 4G with "crashkernel=X,low". Besides, there are few rules need
to take notice:
1. "crashkernel=X,[high,low]" will be ignored if "crashkernel=size"
is specified.
2. "crashkernel=X,low" is valid only when "crashkernel=X,high" is passed
and there is enough memory to be allocated under 4G.
3. When allocating crashkernel above 4G and no "crashkernel=X,low" is
specified, a 128M low memory will be allocated automatically for
swiotlb bounce buffer.
See Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt for more information.
To verify loading the crashkernel, adapted kexec-tools is attached below:
https://github.com/chenjh005/kexec-tools/tree/build-test-riscv-v2
Following test cases have been performed as expected:
1) crashkernel=256M //low=256M
2) crashkernel=1G //low=1G
3) crashkernel=4G //high=4G, low=128M(default)
4) crashkernel=4G crashkernel=256M,high //high=4G, low=128M(default), high is ignored
5) crashkernel=4G crashkernel=256M,low //high=4G, low=128M(default), low is ignored
6) crashkernel=4G,high //high=4G, low=128M(default)
7) crashkernel=256M,low //low=0M, invalid
8) crashkernel=4G,high crashkernel=256M,low //high=4G, low=256M
9) crashkernel=4G,high crashkernel=4G,low //high=0M, low=0M, invalid
10) crashkernel=512M@0xd0000000 //low=512M
11) crashkernel=1G,high crashkernel=0M,low //high=1G, low=0M

Introduce the crash_hotplug attribute for memory and CPUs for use by
userspace. These attributes directly facilitate the udev rule for
managing userspace re-loading of the crash kernel upon hot un/plug
changes.
For memory, expose the crash_hotplug attribute to the
/sys/devices/system/memory directory. For example:
# udevadm info --attribute-walk /sys/devices/system/memory/memory81
looking at device '/devices/system/memory/memory81':
KERNEL=="memory81"
SUBSYSTEM=="memory"
DRIVER==""
ATTR{online}=="1"
ATTR{phys_device}=="0"
ATTR{phys_index}=="00000051"
ATTR{removable}=="1"
ATTR{state}=="online"
ATTR{valid_zones}=="Movable"
looking at parent device '/devices/system/memory':
KERNELS=="memory"
SUBSYSTEMS==""
DRIVERS==""
ATTRS{auto_online_blocks}=="offline"
ATTRS{block_size_bytes}=="8000000"
ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1"
For CPUs, expose the crash_hotplug attribute to the
/sys/devices/system/cpu directory. For example:
# udevadm info --attribute-walk /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0
looking at device '/devices/system/cpu/cpu0':
KERNEL=="cpu0"
SUBSYSTEM=="cpu"
DRIVER=="processor"
ATTR{crash_notes}=="277c38600"
ATTR{crash_notes_size}=="368"
ATTR{online}=="1"
looking at parent device '/devices/system/cpu':
KERNELS=="cpu"
SUBSYSTEMS==""
DRIVERS==""
ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1"
ATTRS{isolated}==""
ATTRS{kernel_max}=="8191"
ATTRS{nohz_full}==" (null)"
ATTRS{offline}=="4-7"
ATTRS{online}=="0-3"
ATTRS{possible}=="0-7"
ATTRS{present}=="0-3"
With these sysfs attributes in place, it is possible to efficiently
instruct the udev rule to skip crash kernel reloading for kernels
configured with crash hotplug support.
For example, the following is the proposed udev rule change for RHEL
system 98-kexec.rules (as the first lines of the rule file):
# The kernel updates the crash elfcorehdr for CPU and memory changes
SUBSYSTEM=="cpu", ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1", GOTO="kdump_reload_end"
SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1", GOTO="kdump_reload_end"
When examined in the context of 98-kexec.rules, the above rules test if
crash_hotplug is set, and if so, the userspace initiated
unload-then-reload of the crash kernel is skipped.
CPU and memory checks are separated in accordance with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
and CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG kernel config options. If an architecture
supports, for example, memory hotplug but not CPU hotplug, then the
/sys/devices/system/memory/crash_hotplug attribute file is present, but
the /sys/devices/system/cpu/crash_hotplug attribute file will NOT be
present. Thus the udev rule skips userspace processing of memory hot
un/plug events, but the udev rule will evaluate false for CPU events, thus
allowing userspace to process CPU hot un/plug events (ie the
unload-then-reload of the kdump capture kernel).

Alexandre Ghiti <alexghiti@rivosinc.com> says:
riscv used to allow direct access to cycle/time/instret counters,
bypassing the perf framework, this patchset intends to allow the user to
mmap any counter when accessed through perf.
**Important**: The default mode is now user access through perf only, not
the legacy so some applications will break. However, we introduce a sysctl
perf_user_access like arm64 does, which will allow to switch to the legacy
mode described above.
This version needs openSBI v1.3 *and* a kernel fix that went upstream lately
(https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230616114831.3186980-1-maz@kernel.org/T/).
* b4-shazam-merge:
perf: tests: Adapt mmap-basic.c for riscv
tools: lib: perf: Implement riscv mmap support
Documentation: admin-guide: Add riscv sysctl_perf_user_access
drivers: perf: Implement perf event mmap support in the SBI backend
drivers: perf: Implement perf event mmap support in the legacy backend
riscv: Prepare for user-space perf event mmap support

riscv: Make legacy counter enum match the HW numbering
include: riscv: Fix wrong include guard in riscv_pmu.h

pageblocks
Currently, memmap_on_memory feature is only supported with memory block
sizes that result in vmemmap pages covering full page blocks. This is
because memory onlining/offlining code requires applicable ranges to be
pageblock-aligned, for example, to set the migratetypes properly.
This patch helps to lift that restriction by reserving more pages than
required for vmemmap space. This helps the start address to be page block
aligned with different memory block sizes. Using this facility implies
the kernel will be reserving some pages for every memoryblock. This
allows the memmap on memory feature to be widely useful with different
memory block size values.
For ex: with 64K page size and 256MiB memory block size, we require 4
pages to map vmemmap pages, To align things correctly we end up adding a
reserve of 28 pages. ie, for every 4096 pages 28 pages get reserved.

Let's update the documentation that any signal is sufficient, and add a
comment that not only checking for fatal signals is historical baggage:
changing it now could break existing user space. although unlikely.
For example, when an app provides a custom SIGALRM handler and triggers
memory offlining, the timeout cmd would no longer stop memory offlining,
because SIGALRM would no longer be considered a fatal signal.
Note that using signal_pending() instead of fatal_signal_pending() is
an anti-pattern, but slowly deprecating that behavior to eventually
change it in the far future is probably not worth the effort. If this
ever becomes relevant for user-space, we might want to rethink.

kmem.limit_in_bytes (v1 way to limit kernel memory usage) has been
deprecated since 58056f77502f ("memcg, kmem: further deprecate
kmem.limit_in_bytes") merged in 5.16. We haven't heard about any serious
users since then but it seems that the mere presence of the file is
causing more harm thatn good. We (SUSE) have had several bug reports from
customers where Docker based containers started to fail because a write to
kmem.limit_in_bytes has failed.
This was unexpected because runc code only expects ENOENT (kmem disabled)
or EBUSY (tasks already running within cgroup). So a new error code was
unexpected and the whole container startup failed. This has been later
addressed by
https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/commit/52390d68040637dfc77f9fda6bbe70952423d380
so current Docker runtimes do not suffer from the problem anymore. There
are still older version of Docker in use and likely hard to get rid of
completely.
Address this by wiping out the file completely and effectively get back to
pre 4.5 era and CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=n configuration.
I would recommend backporting to stable trees which have picked up
58056f77502f ("memcg, kmem: further deprecate kmem.limit_in_bytes").

When use_zero_pages is enabled, the calculation of ksm profit is not
correct because ksm zero pages is not counted in. So update the
calculation of KSM profit including the documentation.

As pages_sharing and pages_shared don't include the number of zero pages
merged by KSM, we cannot know how many pages are zero pages placed by KSM
when enabling use_zero_pages, which leads to KSM not being transparent
with all actual merged pages by KSM. In the early days of use_zero_pages,
zero-pages was unable to get unshared by the ways like MADV_UNMERGEABLE so
it's hard to count how many times one of those zeropages was then
unmerged.
But now, unsharing KSM-placed zero page accurately has been achieved, so
we can easily count both how many times a page full of zeroes was merged
with zero-page and how many times one of those pages was then unmerged.
and so, it helps to estimate memory demands when each and every shared
page could get unshared.
So we add ksm_zero_pages under /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/ to show the number
of all zero pages placed by KSM. Meanwhile, we update the Documentation.

The parser of the CPU lists is bitmap_parselist() that supports
special notations with the plain numbers. bitmap_parse() never
supported those and will fail in case one will try it.

This patch enables config option GENERIC_IDLE_POLL_SETUP for arch
powerpc. This adds support for kernel param 'nohlt'.
Powerpc kernel also supports another kernel boot-time param called
'powersave' which can also be used to disable all cpu idle-states and
forces CPU to an idle-loop similar to what cpu_idle_poll() does. This
patch however makes powerpc kernel-parameters better aligned to the
generic boot-time parameters.

Since for MMIO driver using FIFO registers, also known as tpm_tis, the
default (and tbh recommended) behaviour is now the polling mode, the
"tristate" workaround is no longer for benefit.
If someone wants to explicitly enable IRQs for a TPM chip that should be
without question allowed. It could very well be a piece hardware in the
existing deny list because of e.g. firmware update or something similar.
While at it, document the module parameter, as this was not done in 2006
when it first appeared in the mainline.
