2011-08-18perf evlist: Fix missing event name init for default eventStephane Eranian1-1/+10
When no event is given to perf record, perf top, a default event is initialized (cycles). However, perf_evlist__add_default() was not setting the symbolic name for the event. Perf top worked simply because it was reconstructing the name from the event code. But it should not have to do this. This patch initializes the evsel->name field properly. This second version improves the code flow on the non error path.

2011-08-12perf probe: Filter out redundant inline-instancesMasami Hiramatsu1-0/+22
With gcc4.6, some instances of concrete inlined function looks redundant and broken, because it appears inside of a concrete instance and its call_file and call_line are same as the original abstruct's decl_file and decl_line respectively. e.g. [ d1aa] subprogram external (flag) Yes name (strp) "add_timer" decl_file (data1) 2 ;here is original decl_line (data2) 847 ;line and file prototyped (flag) Yes inline (data1) inlined (1) sibling (ref4) [ d1c6] ...

2011-08-12perf probe: Search concrete out-of-line instancesMasami Hiramatsu3-35/+83
gcc 4.6 generates a concrete out-of-line instance when there is a function which is implicitly inlined somewhere but also has its own instance. The concrete out-of-line instance means that it has an abstract origin of the function which is referred by not only inlined-subroutines but also a concrete subprogram. Since current dwarf_func_inline_instances() can find only instances of inlined-subroutines, this introduces new die_walk_instances() to find both of subprogram and inlined-subroutines. e.g. without this, Available variables at sched_group_rt_period @<cpu_rt_period_read_uint+9> struct task_group* tg perf probe failed to find actual subprogram instance of sched_group_rt_period(). With this, Available variables at sched_group_rt_period @<cpu_rt_period_read_uint+9> struct task_group* tg @<sched_group_rt_period+0> struct task_group* tg Now it found the sched_group_rt_period() itself.

2011-08-12perf probe: Avoid searching variables in intermediate scopesMasami Hiramatsu1-31/+13
Fix variable searching logic to search one in inner than local scope or global(CU) scope. In the other words, skip searching in intermediate scopes. e.g., in the following code, int var1; void inline infunc(int i) { i++; <--- [A] } void func(void) { int var1, var2; infunc(var2); } At [A], "var1" should point the global variable "var1", however, if user mis-typed as "var2", variable search should be failed. However, current logic searches variable infunc() scope, global scope, and then func() scope. Thus, it can find "var2" variable in func() scope. This may not be what user expects. So, it would better not search outer scopes except outermost (compile unit) scope which contains only global variables, when it failed to find given variable in local scope. E.g. Without this: $ perf probe -V pre_schedule --externs > without.vars With this: $ perf probe -V pre_schedule --externs > with.vars Check the diff: $ diff without.vars with.vars 88d87 < int cpu 133d131 < long unsigned int* switch_count These vars are actually in the scope of schedule(), the caller of pre_schedule().

2011-08-12perf probe: Fix to search local variables in appropriate scopeMasami Hiramatsu4-27/+144
Fix perf probe to search local variables in appropriate local inlined function scope. For example, pre_schedule() has only 2 local variables, as below; $ perf probe -L pre_schedule <pre_schedule@/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-2.6/kernel/sched.c:0> 0 static inline void pre_schedule(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev) { 2 if (prev->sched_class->pre_schedule) 3 prev->sched_class->pre_schedule(rq, prev); } However, current perf probe shows 4 local variables on pre_schedule(), because it searches variables in the caller(schedule()) scope. $ perf probe -V pre_schedule Available variables at pre_schedule @<schedule+445> int cpu long unsigned int* switch_count struct rq* rq struct task_struct* prev This patch fixes this issue by searching variables in the local scope of the instance of inlined function.

2011-08-12perf probe: Fix to search nested inlined functions in CUMasami Hiramatsu2-12/+82
Fix perf probe to walk through the lines of all nested inlined function call sites and declared lines when a whole CU is passed to the line walker. The die_walk_lines() can have two different type of DIEs, subprogram (or inlined-subroutine) DIE and CU DIE. If a caller passes a subprogram DIE, this means that the walker walk on lines of given subprogram. In this case, it just needs to search on direct children of DIE tree for finding call-site information of inlined function which directly called from given subprogram. On the other hand, if a caller passes a CU DIE to the walker, this means that the walker have to walk on all lines in the source files included in given CU DIE. In this case, it has to search whole DIE trees of all subprograms to find the call-site information of all nested inlined functions. Without this patch: $ perf probe --line kernel/cpu.c:151-157 </home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-2.6/kernel/cpu.c:151> static int cpu_notify(unsigned long val, void *v) { 154 return __cpu_notify(val, v, -1, NULL); } With this: $ perf probe --line kernel/cpu.c:151-157 </home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-2.6/kernel/cpu.c:151> 152 static int cpu_notify(unsigned long val, void *v) { 154 return __cpu_notify(val, v, -1, NULL); } As you can see, --line option with source line range shows the declared lines as probe-able.

Just like files-layout, blocks & objects layouts are part of the NFS 4.1 protocol and should be automatically selected if NFS_4_1 is selected. The small problem is that these depend on other Kernel support being present, while files only depends on NFS itself.

2011-08-11move RLIMIT_NPROC check from set_user() to do_execve_common()Vasiliy Kulikov5-8/+32
The patch http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/13/226 introduced an RLIMIT_NPROC check in set_user() to check for NPROC exceeding via setuid() and similar functions. Before the check there was a possibility to greatly exceed the allowed number of processes by an unprivileged user if the program relied on rlimit only. But the check created new security threat: many poorly written programs simply don't check setuid() return code and believe it cannot fail if executed with root privileges. So, the check is removed in this patch because of too often privilege escalations related to buggy programs. The NPROC can still be enforced in the common code flow of daemons spawning user processes. Most of daemons do fork()+setuid()+execve(). The check introduced in execve() (1) enforces the same limit as in setuid() and (2) doesn't create similar security issues. Neil Brown suggested to track what specific process has exceeded the limit by setting PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED process flag. With the change only this process would fail on execve(), and other processes' execve() behaviour is not changed. Solar Designer suggested to re-check whether NPROC limit is still exceeded at the moment of execve(). If the process was sleeping for days between set*uid() and execve(), and the NPROC counter step down under the limit, the defered execve() failure because NPROC limit was exceeded days ago would be unexpected. If the limit is not exceeded anymore, we clear the flag on successful calls to execve() and fork(). The flag is also cleared on successful calls to set_user() as the limit was exceeded for the previous user, not the current one. Similar check was introduced in -ow patches (without the process flag). v3 - clear PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED on successful calls to set_user().

2011-08-11perf report: Use properly build_id kernel binariesJiri Olsa3-27/+42
If we bring the recorded perf data together with kernel binary from another machine using: on server A: perf archive on server B: tar xjvf perf.data.tar.bz2 -C ~/.debug the build_id kernel dso is not properly recognized during the "perf report" command on server B. The reason is, that build_id dsos are added during the session initialization, while the kernel maps are created during the sample event processing. The machine__create_kernel_maps functions ends up creating new dso object for kernel, but it does not check if we already have one added by build_id processing. Also the build_id reading ABI quirk added in commit: - commit b25114817a73bbd2b84ce9dba02ee1ef8989a947 perf build-id: Add quirk to deal with perf.data file format breakage populates the "struct build_id_event::pid" with 0, which is later interpreted as DEFAULT_GUEST_KERNEL_ID. This is not always correct, so it's better to guess the pid value based on the "struct build_id_event::header::misc" value. - Tested with data generated on x86 kernel version v2.6.34 and reported back on x86_64 current kernel. - Not tested for guest kernel case. Note the problem stays for PERF_RECORD_MMAP events recorded by perf that does not use proper pid (HOST_KERNEL_ID/DEFAULT_GUEST_KERNEL_ID). They are misinterpreted within the current perf code. Probably there's not much we can do about that.

2011-08-09cap_syslog: don't use WARN_ONCE for CAP_SYS_ADMIN deprecation warningJonathan Nieder1-2/+4
syslog-ng versions before 3.3.0beta1 (2011-05-12) assume that CAP_SYS_ADMIN is sufficient to access syslog, so ever since CAP_SYSLOG was introduced (2010-11-25) they have triggered a warning. Commit ee24aebffb75 ("cap_syslog: accept CAP_SYS_ADMIN for now") improved matters a little by making syslog-ng work again, just keeping the WARN_ONCE(). But still, this is a warning that writes a stack trace we don't care about to syslog, sets a taint flag, and alarms sysadmins when nothing worse has happened than use of an old userspace with a recent kernel. Convert the WARN_ONCE to a printk_once to avoid that while continuing to give userspace developers a hint that this is an unwanted backward-compatibility feature and won't be around forever.

2011-08-09Revert "memcg: get rid of percpu_charge_mutex lock"Michal Hocko1-2/+10
This reverts commit 8521fc50d433507a7cdc96bec280f9e5888a54cc. The patch incorrectly assumes that using atomic FLUSHING_CACHED_CHARGE bit operations is sufficient but that is not true.

The cache is already cleaned up, though. There is also a theoretical chance that the cached memcg gets freed between we test for the FLUSHING_CACHED_CHARGE and dereference it in mem_cgroup_same_or_subtree: CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 mem=stock->cached stock->cached=NULL clear_bit test_and_set_bit test_bit() ... <preempted> mem_cgroup_destroy use after free The percpu_charge_mutex protected from this race because sync draining is exclusive.

2011-08-09slub: Fix partial count comparison confusionChristoph Lameter1-1/+1
deactivate_slab() has the comparison if more than the minimum number of partial pages are in the partial list wrong. An effect of this may be that empty pages are not freed from deactivate_slab(). The result could be an OOM due to growth of the partial slabs per node. Frees mostly occur from __slab_free which is okay so this would only affect use cases where a lot of switching around of per cpu slabs occur. Switching per cpu slabs occurs with high frequency if debugging options are enabled.

2011-08-09slub: fix check_bytes() for slub debuggingAkinobu Mita1-1/+1
The check_bytes() function is used by slub debugging. It returns a pointer to the first unmatching byte for a character in the given memory area. If the character for matching byte is greater than 0x80, check_bytes() doesn't work. Becuase 64-bit pattern is generated as below. value64 = value | value << 8 | value << 16 | value << 24; value64 = value64 | value64 << 32; The integer promotions are performed and sign-extended as the type of value is u8. The upper 32 bits of value64 is 0xffffffff in the first line, and the second line has no effect. This fixes the 64-bit pattern generation.
