Tons of tooling changes:
- Show random perf tool tips in the 'perf report' bottom line
(Namhyung Kim)
- perf report now defaults to --group if the perf.data file has
grouped events, try it with:

- Introduce the 'perf stat record/report' workflow:
Generate perf.data files from 'perf stat', to tap into the
scripting capabilities perf has instead of defining a 'perf stat'
specific scripting support to calculate event ratios, etc.
Simple example:
$ perf stat record -e cycles usleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':
1,134,996 cycles
0.000670644 seconds time elapsed
$ perf stat report
Performance counter stats for '/home/acme/bin/perf stat record -e cycles usleep 1':
1,134,996 cycles
0.000670644 seconds time elapsed
$
It generates PERF_RECORD_ userspace records to store the details:
$ perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD
0xf0 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_THREAD_MAP nr: 1 thread: 27637
0x118 [0x12]: PERF_RECORD_CPU_MAP nr: 1 cpu: 65535
0x12a [0x40]: PERF_RECORD_STAT_CONFIG
0x16a [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_STAT
-1 -1 0x19a [0x40]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP -1/0: [0xffffffff81000000(0x1f000000) @ 0xffffffff81000000]: x [kernel.kallsyms]_text
0x1da [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_STAT_ROUND
[acme@ssdandy linux]$
An effort was made to make perf.data files generated like this to
not generate cryptic messages when processed by older tools.
The 'perf script' bits need rebasing, will go up later.
- Make command line options always available, even when they depend
on some feature being enabled, warning the user about use of such
options (Wang Nan)
- Support hw breakpoint events (mem:0xAddress) in the default output
mode in 'perf script' (Wang Nan)
- Fixes and improvements for supporting annotating ARM binaries,
support ARM call and jump instructions, more work needed to have
arch specific stuff separated into tools/perf/arch/*/annotate/
(Russell King)
- Add initial 'perf config' command, for now just with a --list
command to the contents of the configuration file in use and a
basic man page describing its format, commands for doing edits and
detailed documentation are being reviewed and proof-read. (Taeung
Song)
- Allows BPF scriptlets specify arguments to be fetched using DWARF
info, using a prologue generated at compile/build time (He Kuang,
Wang Nan)
- Allow attaching BPF scriptlets to module symbols (Wang Nan)
- Allow attaching BPF scriptlets to userspace code using uprobe (Wang
Nan)
- BPF programs now can specify 'perf probe' tunables via its section
name, separating key=val values using semicolons (Wang Nan)
Testing some of these new BPF features:
Use case: get callchains when receiving SSL packets, filter then in the
kernel, at arbitrary place.

- Use 'perf probe' various options to list functions, see what
variables can be collected at any given point, experiment first
collecting without a filter, then filter, use it together with
'perf trace', 'perf top', with or without callchains, if it

The commit c6ff5268293ef98e48a99597e765ffc417e39fa5 ("rhashtable:
Fix walker list corruption") causes a suspicious RCU usage warning
because we no longer hold ht->mutex when we dereference ht->tbl.
However, this is a false positive because we now hold ht->lock
which also guarantees that ht->tbl won't disppear from under us.
This patch kills the warning by using rcu_dereference_protected.

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
- Two bug fixes for misuse of PAGE_MASK in scatterlist and dma-debug.
These are tagged for -stable. The scatterlist impact is potentially
corrupted dma addresses on HIGHMEM enabled platforms.

in 4.4-rc. This would only trigger in the case a hot-add raced

dma-debug uses struct dma_debug_entry to keep track of dma coherent
memory allocation requests. The virtual address is converted into a pfn
and an offset. Previously, the offset was calculated using an incorrect
bit mask. As a result, we saw incorrect error messages from dma-debug
like the following:
"DMA-API: exceeded 7 overlapping mappings of cacheline 0x03e00000"
Cacheline 0x03e00000 does not exist on our platform.

The commit ba7c95ea3870fe7b847466d39a049ab6f156aa2c ("rhashtable:
Fix sleeping inside RCU critical section in walk_stop") introduced
a new spinlock for the walker list. However, it did not convert
all existing users of the list over to the new spin lock. Some
continued to use the old mutext for this purpose. This obviously
led to corruption of the list.
The fix is to use the spin lock everywhere where we touch the list.
This also allows us to do rcu_rad_lock before we take the lock in
rhashtable_walk_start. With the old mutex this would've deadlocked
but it's safe with the new spin lock.

OK we're doing the size computation before we enforce the limit
on min_size.

We need to do the initial hash table size computation after we
have obtained the correct min_size/max_size parameters. Otherwise
we may end up with a hash table whose size is outside the allowed
envelope.

asm/atomic.h doesn't really need asm/processor.h anymore. Everything
it uses has moved to other header files. So remove that include.
processor.h is a nasty header that includes lots of
other headers and makes it prone to include loops. Removing the
include here makes asm/atomic.h a "leaf" header that can
be safely included in most other headers.
The only fallout is in the lib/atomic tester which relied on
this implicit include. Give it an explicit include.
(the include is in ifdef because the user is also in ifdef)

This reverts commit d3716f18a7d841565c930efde30737a3557eee69.

When an rhashtable user pounds rhashtable hard with back-to-back
insertions we may end up growing the table in GFP_ATOMIC context.
Unfortunately when the table reaches a certain size this often
fails because we don't have enough physically contiguous pages
to hold the new table.
Eric Dumazet suggested (and in fact wrote this patch) using
__vmalloc instead which can be used in GFP_ATOMIC context.

Thomas and Phil observed that under stress rhashtable insertion
sometimes failed with EBUSY, even though this error should only
ever been seen when we're under attack and our hash chain length
has grown to an unacceptable level, even after a rehash.
It turns out that the logic for detecting whether there is an
existing rehash is faulty. In particular, when two threads both
try to grow the same table at the same time, one of them may see
the newly grown table and thus erroneously conclude that it had
been rehashed. This is what leads to the EBUSY error.
This patch fixes this by remembering the current last table we
used during insertion so that rhashtable_insert_rehash can detect
when another thread has also done a resize/rehash. When this is
detected we will give up our resize/rehash and simply retry the
insertion with the new table.

Some atomic operations now have _relaxed/acquire/release variants, this
patch adds some trivial tests for two purposes:
1. test the behavior of these new operations in single-CPU
environment.
2. make their code generated before we actually use them somewhere,
so that we can examine their assembly code.

There is a classical off-by-one error in case when we try to place, for
example, 1+1 bytes as hex in the buffer of size 6. The expected result is
to get an output truncated, but in the reality we get 6 bytes filed
followed by terminating NUL.
Change the logic how we fill the output in case of byte dumping into
limited space. This will follow the snprintf() behaviour by truncating
output even on half bytes.

Sometimes kobject_set_name_vargs is called with a format string conaining
no %, or a format string of precisely "%s", where the single vararg
happens to point to .rodata. kvasprintf_const detects these cases for us
and returns a copy of that pointer instead of duplicating the string, thus
saving some run-time memory. Otherwise, it falls back to kvasprintf. We
just need to always deallocate ->name using kfree_const.
Unfortunately, the dance we need to do to perform the '/' -> '!'
sanitization makes the resulting code rather ugly.
I instrumented kstrdup_const to provide some statistics on the memory
saved, and for me this gave an additional ~14KB after boot (306KB was
already saved; this patch bumped that to 320KB). I have
KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW==3, and since 80% of the kvasprintf_const hits were
satisfied by an 8-byte allocation, the 14K would roughly be quadrupled
when KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW==5. Whether these numbers are sufficient to
justify the ugliness I'll leave to others to decide.

This adds kvasprintf_const which tries to use kstrdup_const if possible:
If the format string contains no % characters, or if the format string is
exactly "%s", we delegate to kstrdup_const. Otherwise, we fall back to
kvasprintf.
Just as for kstrdup_const, the main motivation is to save memory by
reusing .rodata when possible.
The return value should be freed by kfree_const, just like for
kstrdup_const.
There is deliberately no kasprintf_const: In the vast majority of cases,
the format string argument is a literal, so one can determine statically
whether one could instead use kstrdup_const directly (which would also
require one to change all corresponding kfree calls to kfree_const).

llist_del_first reads entry->next, but it did not acquire visibility over
the entry node. As the result it can get a stale value of entry->next
(e.g. NULL or whatever garbage was there before the appending thread
wrote correct value). And then commit that value as llist head with
cmpxchg. That will corrupt llist.
Note there is a control-dependency between read of head->first and read of
entry->next, but it does not make the code correct. Kernel memory model
unambiguously says: "A load-load control dependency requires a full read
memory barrier".
Use smp_load_acquire to acquire visibility over the entry node.
The data race was found with KernelThreadSanitizer (KTSAN).

This adds a simple module for testing the kernel's printf facilities.
Previously, some %p extensions have caused a wrong return value in case
the entire output didn't fit and/or been unusable in kasprintf(). This
should help catch such issues. Also, it should help ensure that changes
to the formatting algorithms don't break anything.
I'm not sure if we have a struct dentry or struct file lying around at
boot time or if we can fake one, but most %p extensions should be
testable, as should the ordinary number and string formatting.
The nature of vararg functions means we can't use a more conventional
table-driven approach.
For now, this is mostly a skeleton; contributions are very
welcome. Some tests are/will be slightly annoying to write, since the
expected output depends on stuff like CONFIG_*, sizeof(long), runtime
values etc.

As a quick
git grep -E '%[ +0#-]*#[ +0#-]*(\*|[0-9]+)?(\.(\*|[0-9]+)?)?p'
shows, nobody uses the # flag with %p. Should one try to do so, one
will be met with
warning: `#' flag used with `%p' gnu_printf format [-Wformat]
(POSIX and C99 both say "... For other conversion specifiers, the
behavior is undefined.". Obviously, the kernel can choose to define
the behaviour however it wants, but as long as gcc issues that
warning, users are unlikely to show up.)

Quoting from 2aa2f9e21e4e ("lib/vsprintf.c: improve sanity check in
vsnprintf()"):
On 64 bit, size may very well be huge even if bit 31 happens to be 0.
Somehow it doesn't feel right that one can pass a 5 GiB buffer but not a
3 GiB one. So cap at INT_MAX as was probably the intention all along.
This is also the made-up value passed by sprintf and vsprintf.
I should have seen this copy-pasted instance back then, but let's just
do it now.

If we meet any invalid or unsupported format specifier, 'handling' it by
just printing it as a literal string is not safe: Presumably the format
string and the arguments passed gcc's type checking, but that means
something like sprintf(buf, "%n %pd", &intvar, dentry) would end up
interpreting &intvar as a struct dentry*.
When the offending specifier was %n it used to be at the end of the format
string, but we can't rely on that always being the case. Also, gcc
doesn't complain about some more or less exotic qualifiers (or 'length
modifiers' in posix-speak) such as 'j' or 'q', but being unrecognized by
the kernel's printf implementation, they'd be interpreted as unknown
specifiers, and the rest of arguments would be interpreted wrongly.
So let's complain about anything we don't understand, not just %n, and
stop pretending that we'd be able to make sense of the rest of the
format/arguments. If the offending specifier is in a printk() call we
unfortunately only get a "BUG: recent printk recursion!", but at least
direct users of the sprintf family will be caught.

__GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and
could not sleep. Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic
context and callers that are not willing to sleep. The latter should
clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake. As clearing
__GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the
wrong flags. This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly
indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing
them prevents it.

sleep and avoiding waking kswapd
__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".
Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.
This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.
This patch then converts a number of sites
o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.
o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.
o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
flag manipulations.
o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.
The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.
The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

It's recommended to have slub's user tracking enabled with CONFIG_KASAN,
because:
a) User tracking disables slab merging which improves
detecting out-of-bounds accesses.
b) User tracking metadata acts as redzone which also improves
detecting out-of-bounds accesses.
c) User tracking provides additional information about object.
This information helps to understand bugs.
Currently it is not enabled by default. Besides recompiling the kernel
with KASAN and reinstalling it, user also have to change the boot cmdline,
which is not very handy.
Enable slub user tracking by default with KASAN=y, since there is no good
reason to not do this.

The value returned from iommu_tbl_range_alloc() (and the one passed
in as a fourth argument to iommu_tbl_range_free) is not a DMA address,
it is rather an index into the IOMMU page table.
Therefore using DMA_ERROR_CODE is not appropriate.
Use a more type matching error code define, IOMMU_ERROR_CODE, and
update all users of this interface.
