ba1afc94de uprobes: uprobe_warn should use passed task
uprobe_warn() is passed a task structure, yet its using current. For
the most part this shouldn't matter, but since a task structure is
provided, lets use it.

c0951573e0 mm: convert uprobes to mm_flags_*() accessors
As part of the effort to move to mm->flags becoming a bitmap field,
convert existing users to making use of the mm_flags_*() accessors which
will, when the conversion is complete, be the only means of accessing
mm_struct flags.

No functional change intended.

18dbcbfabf perf: Fix the POLL_HUP delivery breakage
The event_limit can be set by the PERF_EVENT_IOC_REFRESH to limit the
number of events. When the event_limit reaches 0, the POLL_HUP signal
should be sent. But it's missed.

The corresponding counter should be stopped when the event_limit reaches
0. It was implemented in the ARCH-specific code. However, since the
commit 9734e25fbf ("perf: Fix the throttle logic for a group"), all
the ARCH-specific code has been moved to the generic code. The code to
handle the event_limit was lost.

Add the event->pmu->stop(event, 0); back.

edd3cb05c0 copy_process: pass clone_flags as u64 across calltree
With the introduction of clone3 in commit 7f192e3cd3 ("fork: add
clone3") the effective bit width of clone_flags on all architectures was
increased from 32-bit to 64-bit, with a new type of u64 for the flags.
However, for most consumers of clone_flags the interface was not
changed from the previous type of unsigned long.

While this works fine as long as none of the new 64-bit flag bits
(CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND and CLONE_INTO_CGROUP) are evaluated, this is still
undesirable in terms of the principle of least surprise.

Thus, this commit fixes all relevant interfaces of callees to
sys_clone3/copy_process (excluding the architecture-specific
copy_thread) to consistently pass clone_flags as u64, so that
no truncation to 32-bit integers occurs on 32-bit architectures.

ba2bfc97b4 uprobes/x86: Add support to optimize uprobes
Putting together all the previously added pieces to support optimized
uprobes on top of 5-byte nop instruction.

The current uprobe execution goes through following:

  - installs breakpoint instruction over original instruction
  - exception handler hit and calls related uprobe consumers
  - and either simulates original instruction or does out of line single step
    execution of it
  - returns to user space

The optimized uprobe path does following:

  - checks the original instruction is 5-byte nop (plus other checks)
  - adds (or uses existing) user space trampoline with uprobe syscall
  - overwrites original instruction (5-byte nop) with call to user space
    trampoline
  - the user space trampoline executes uprobe syscall that calls related uprobe
    consumers
  - trampoline returns back to next instruction

This approach won't speed up all uprobes as it's limited to using nop5 as
original instruction, but we plan to use nop5 as USDT probe instruction
(which currently uses single byte nop) and speed up the USDT probes.

The arch_uprobe_optimize triggers the uprobe optimization and is called after
first uprobe hit. I originally had it called on uprobe installation but then
it clashed with elf loader, because the user space trampoline was added in a
place where loader might need to put elf segments, so I decided to do it after
first uprobe hit when loading is done.

The uprobe is un-optimized in arch specific set_orig_insn call.

The instruction overwrite is x86 arch specific and needs to go through 3 updates:
(on top of nop5 instruction)

  - write int3 into 1st byte
  - write last 4 bytes of the call instruction
  - update the call instruction opcode

And cleanup goes though similar reverse stages:

  - overwrite call opcode with breakpoint (int3)
  - write last 4 bytes of the nop5 instruction
  - write the nop5 first instruction byte

We do not unmap and release uprobe trampoline when it's no longer needed,
because there's no easy way to make sure none of the threads is still
inside the trampoline. But we do not waste memory, because there's just
single page for all the uprobe trampoline mappings.

We do waste frame on page mapping for every 4GB by keeping the uprobe
trampoline page mapped, but that seems ok.

We take the benefit from the fact that set_swbp and set_orig_insn are
called under mmap_write_lock(mm), so we can use the current instruction
as the state the uprobe is in - nop5/breakpoint/call trampoline -
and decide the needed action (optimize/un-optimize) based on that.

Attaching the speed up from benchs/run_bench_uprobes.sh script:

current:
        usermode-count :  152.604 ± 0.044M/s
        syscall-count  :   13.359 ± 0.042M/s
-->     uprobe-nop     :    3.229 ± 0.002M/s
        uprobe-push    :    3.086 ± 0.004M/s
        uprobe-ret     :    1.114 ± 0.004M/s
        uprobe-nop5    :    1.121 ± 0.005M/s
        uretprobe-nop  :    2.145 ± 0.002M/s
        uretprobe-push :    2.070 ± 0.001M/s
        uretprobe-ret  :    0.931 ± 0.001M/s
        uretprobe-nop5 :    0.957 ± 0.001M/s

after the change:
        usermode-count :  152.448 ± 0.244M/s
        syscall-count  :   14.321 ± 0.059M/s
        uprobe-nop     :    3.148 ± 0.007M/s
        uprobe-push    :    2.976 ± 0.004M/s
        uprobe-ret     :    1.068 ± 0.003M/s
-->     uprobe-nop5    :    7.038 ± 0.007M/s
        uretprobe-nop  :    2.109 ± 0.004M/s
        uretprobe-push :    2.035 ± 0.001M/s
        uretprobe-ret  :    0.908 ± 0.001M/s
        uretprobe-nop5 :    3.377 ± 0.009M/s

I see bit more speed up on Intel (above) compared to AMD. The big nop5
speed up is partly due to emulating nop5 and partly due to optimization.

The key speed up we do this for is the USDT switch from nop to nop5:
        uprobe-nop     :    3.148 ± 0.007M/s
        uprobe-nop5    :    7.038 ± 0.007M/s

56101b69c9 uprobes/x86: Add uprobe syscall to speed up uprobe
Adding new uprobe syscall that calls uprobe handlers for given
'breakpoint' address.

The idea is that the 'breakpoint' address calls the user space
trampoline which executes the uprobe syscall.

The syscall handler reads the return address of the initial call
to retrieve the original 'breakpoint' address. With this address
we find the related uprobe object and call its consumers.

Adding the arch_uprobe_trampoline_mapping function that provides
uprobe trampoline mapping. This mapping is backed with one global
page initialized at __init time and shared by the all the mapping
instances.

We do not allow to execute uprobe syscall if the caller is not
from uprobe trampoline mapping.

The uprobe syscall ensures the consumer (bpf program) sees registers
values in the state before the trampoline was called.

91440ff4ca uprobes/x86: Add mapping for optimized uprobe trampolines
Adding support to add special mapping for user space trampoline with
following functions:

  uprobe_trampoline_get - find or add uprobe_trampoline
  uprobe_trampoline_put - remove or destroy uprobe_trampoline

The user space trampoline is exported as arch specific user space special
mapping through tramp_mapping, which is initialized in following changes
with new uprobe syscall.

The uprobe trampoline needs to be callable/reachable from the probed address,
so while searching for available address we use is_reachable_by_call function
to decide if the uprobe trampoline is callable from the probe address.

All uprobe_trampoline objects are stored in uprobes_state object and are
cleaned up when the process mm_struct goes down. Adding new arch hooks
for that, because this change is x86_64 specific.

Locking is provided by callers in following changes.

Currently unapply_uprobe takes mmap_read_lock, but it might call
remove_breakpoint which eventually changes user pages.

Current code writes either breakpoint or original instruction, so it can
go away with read lock as explained in here [1]. But with the upcoming
change that writes multiple instructions on the probed address we need
to ensure that any update to mm's pages is exclusive.

The recently fixed reference count leaks could have been detected by using
refcount_t and refcount_t would have mitigated the potential overflow at
least.

Now that the code is properly structured, convert the mmap() related
mmap_count variants over to refcount_t.

b64fdd422a perf: Avoid undefined behavior from stopping/starting inactive events
Calling pmu->start()/stop() on perf events in PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF can
leave event->hw.idx at -1. When PMU drivers later attempt to use this
negative index as a shift exponent in bitwise operations, it leads to UBSAN
shift-out-of-bounds reports.

The issue is a logical flaw in how event groups handle throttling when some
members are intentionally disabled. Based on the analysis and the
reproducer provided by Mark Rutland (this issue on both arm64 and x86-64).

The scenario unfolds as follows:

 1. A group leader event is configured with a very aggressive sampling
    period (e.g., sample_period = 1). This causes frequent interrupts and
    triggers the throttling mechanism.
 2. A child event in the same group is created in a disabled state
    (.disabled = 1). This event remains in PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF.
    Since it hasn't been scheduled onto the PMU, its event->hw.idx remains
    initialized at -1.
 3. When throttling occurs, perf_event_throttle_group() and later
    perf_event_unthrottle_group() iterate through all siblings, including
    the disabled child event.
 4. perf_event_throttle()/unthrottle() are called on this inactive child
    event, which then call event->pmu->start()/stop().
 5. The PMU driver receives the event with hw.idx == -1 and attempts to
    use it as a shift exponent. e.g., in macros like PMCNTENSET(idx),
    leading to the UBSAN report.

The throttling mechanism attempts to start/stop events that are not
actively scheduled on the hardware.

Move the state check into perf_event_throttle()/perf_event_unthrottle() so
that inactive events are skipped entirely. This ensures only active events
with a valid hw.idx are processed, preventing undefined behavior and
silencing UBSAN warnings. The corrected check ensures true before
proceeding with PMU operations.

The problem can be reproduced with the syzkaller reproducer:

b024d7b56c perf/core: Prevent VMA split of buffer mappings
The perf mmap code is careful about mmap()'ing the user page with the
ringbuffer and additionally the auxiliary buffer, when the event supports
it. Once the first mapping is established, subsequent mapping have to use
the same offset and the same size in both cases. The reference counting for
the ringbuffer and the auxiliary buffer depends on this being correct.

Though perf does not prevent that a related mapping is split via mmap(2),
munmap(2) or mremap(2). A split of a VMA results in perf_mmap_open() calls,
which take reference counts, but then the subsequent perf_mmap_close()
calls are not longer fulfilling the offset and size checks. This leads to
reference count leaks.

As perf already has the requirement for subsequent mappings to match the
initial mapping, the obvious consequence is that VMA splits, caused by
resizing of a mapping or partial unmapping, have to be prevented.

Implement the vm_operations_struct::may_split() callback and return
unconditionally -EINVAL.

That ensures that the mapping offsets and sizes cannot be changed after the
fact. Remapping to a different fixed address with the same size is still
possible as it takes the references for the new mapping and drops those of
the old mapping.

f74b9f4ba6 perf/core: Handle buffer mapping fail correctly in perf_mmap()
After successful allocation of a buffer or a successful attachment to an
existing buffer perf_mmap() tries to map the buffer read only into the page
table. If that fails, the already set up page table entries are zapped, but
the other perf specific side effects of that failure are not handled.  The
calling code just cleans up the VMA and does not invoke perf_mmap_close().

This leaks reference counts, corrupts user->vm accounting and also results
in an unbalanced invocation of event::event_mapped().

Cure this by moving the event::event_mapped() invocation before the
map_range() call so that on map_range() failure perf_mmap_close() can be
invoked without causing an unbalanced event::event_unmapped() call.

perf_mmap_close() undoes the reference counts and eventually frees buffers.

     which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.

  "selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park)

aa644c4052 uprobes: revert ref_ctr_offset in uprobe_unregister error path
There's error path that could lead to inactive uprobe:

  1) uprobe_register succeeds - updates instruction to int3 and
     changes ref_ctr from 0 to 1
  2) uprobe_unregister fails  - int3 stays in place, but ref_ctr
     is changed to 0 (it's not restored to 1 in the fail path)
     uprobe is leaked
  3) another uprobe_register comes and re-uses the leaked uprobe
     and succeds - but int3 is already in place, so ref_ctr update
     is skipped and it stays 0 - uprobe CAN NOT be triggered now
  4) uprobe_unregister fails because ref_ctr value is unexpected

Fix this by reverting the updated ref_ctr value back to 1 in step 2),
which is the case when uprobe_unregister fails (int3 stays in place), but
we have already updated refctr.

The new scenario will go as follows:

  1) uprobe_register succeeds - updates instruction to int3 and
     changes ref_ctr from 0 to 1
  2) uprobe_unregister fails  - int3 stays in place and ref_ctr
     is reverted to 1..  uprobe is leaked
  3) another uprobe_register comes and re-uses the leaked uprobe
     and succeds - but int3 is already in place, so ref_ctr update
     is skipped and it stays 1 - uprobe CAN be triggered now
  4) uprobe_unregister succeeds

6b4a80e424 mm: filter zone device pages returned from folio_walk_start()
Previously dax pages were skipped by the pagewalk code as pud_special() or
vm_normal_page{_pmd}() would be false for DAX pages.  Now that dax pages
are refcounted normally that is no longer the case, so the pagewalk code
will start returning them.

Most callers already explicitly filter for DAX or zone device pages so
don't need updating.  However some don't, so add checks to those callers.

ba677dbe77 perf: Revert to requiring CAP_SYS_ADMIN for uprobes
Jann reports that uprobes can be used destructively when used in the
middle of an instruction. The kernel only verifies there is a valid
instruction at the requested offset, but due to variable instruction
length cannot determine if this is an instruction as seen by the
intended execution stream.

Additionally, Mark Rutland notes that on architectures that mix data
in the text segment (like arm64), a similar things can be done if the
data word is 'mistaken' for an instruction.

As such, require CAP_SYS_ADMIN for uprobes.

1476b21832 perf/aux: Fix pending disable flow when the AUX ring buffer overruns
If an AUX event overruns, the event core layer intends to disable the
event by setting the 'pending_disable' flag. Unfortunately, the event
is not actually disabled afterwards.

In commit:

  ca6c21327c ("perf: Fix missing SIGTRAPs")

the 'pending_disable' flag was changed to a boolean. However, the
AUX event code was not updated accordingly. The flag ends up holding a
CPU number. If this number is zero, the flag is taken as false and the
IRQ work is never triggered.

Later, with commit:

  2b84def990 ("perf: Split __perf_pending_irq() out of perf_pending_irq()")

a new IRQ work 'pending_disable_irq' was introduced to handle event
disabling. The AUX event path was not updated to kick off the work queue.

To fix this bug, when an AUX ring buffer overrun is detected, call
perf_event_disable_inatomic() to initiate the pending disable flow.

Also update the outdated comment for setting the flag, to reflect the
boolean values (0 or 1).

bc4394e5e7 perf: Fix the throttle error of some clock events
Both ARM and IBM CI reports RCU stall, which can be reproduced by the
below perf command.
  perf record -a -e cpu-clock -- sleep 2

The issue is introduced by the generic throttle patch set, which
unconditionally invoke the event_stop() when throttle is triggered.

The cpu-clock and task-clock are two special SW events, which rely on
the hrtimer. The throttle is invoked in the hrtimer handler. The
event_stop()->hrtimer_cancel() waits for the handler to finish, which is
a deadlock. Instead of invoking the stop(), the HRTIMER_NORESTART should
be used to stop the timer.

There may be two ways to fix it:
 - Introduce a PMU flag to track the case. Avoid the event_stop in
   perf_event_throttle() if the flag is detected.
   It has been implemented in the
   https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250528175832.2999139-1-kan.liang@linux.intel.com/
   The new flag was thought to be an overkill for the issue.
 - Add a check in the event_stop. Return immediately if the throttle is
   invoked in the hrtimer handler. Rely on the existing HRTIMER_NORESTART
   method to stop the timer.

The latter is implemented here.

Move event->hw.interrupts = MAX_INTERRUPTS before the stop(). It makes
the order the same as perf_event_unthrottle(). Except the patch, no one
checks the hw.interrupts in the stop(). There is no impact from the
order change.

When stops in the throttle, the event should not be updated,
stop(event, 0). But the cpu_clock_event_stop() doesn't handle the flag.
In logic, it's wrong. But it didn't bring any problems with the old
code, because the stop() was not invoked when handling the throttle.
Checking the flag before updating the event.

3172fb9866 perf/core: Fix WARN in perf_cgroup_switch()
There may be concurrency between perf_cgroup_switch and
perf_cgroup_event_disable. Consider the following scenario: after a new
perf cgroup event is created on CPU0, the new event may not trigger
a reprogramming, causing ctx->is_active to be 0. In this case, when CPU1
disables this perf event, it executes __perf_remove_from_context->
list _del_event->perf_cgroup_event_disable on CPU1, which causes a race
with perf_cgroup_switch running on CPU0.

The following describes the details of this concurrency scenario:

CPU0						CPU1

perf_cgroup_switch:
   ...
   # cpuctx->cgrp is not NULL here
   if (READ_ONCE(cpuctx->cgrp) == NULL)
   	return;

						perf_remove_from_context:
						   ...
						   raw_spin_lock_irq(&ctx->lock);
						   ...
						   # ctx->is_active == 0 because reprogramm is not
						   # tigger, so CPU1 can do __perf_remove_from_context
						   # for CPU0
						   __perf_remove_from_context:
						         perf_cgroup_event_disable:
							    ...
							    if (--ctx->nr_cgroups)
							    ...

   # this warning will happened because CPU1 changed
   # ctx.nr_cgroups to 0.
   WARN_ON_ONCE(cpuctx->ctx.nr_cgroups == 0);

Commit a3c3c6667("perf/core: Fix child_total_time_enabled accounting
bug at task exit") moves the event->state update to before
list_del_event(). This makes the event->state test in list_del_event()
always false; never calling perf_cgroup_event_disable().

As a result, cpuctx->cgrp won't be cleared properly; causing havoc.

While chasing down a missing perf_cgroup_event_disable() elsewhere,
Leo Yan found that both perf_put_aux_event() and
perf_remove_sibling_event() were also missing one.

Specifically, the rule is that events that switch to OFF,ERROR need to
call perf_cgroup_event_disable().

Unify the disable paths to ensure this.

4f6fc78212 perf: Fix sample vs do_exit()
Baisheng Gao reported an ARM64 crash, which Mark decoded as being a
synchronous external abort -- most likely due to trying to access
MMIO in bad ways.

The crash further shows perf trying to do a user stack sample while in
exit_mmap()'s tlb_finish_mmu() -- i.e. while tearing down the address
space it is trying to access.

It turns out that we stop perf after we tear down the userspace mm; a
receipie for disaster, since perf likes to access userspace for
various reasons.

Flip this order by moving up where we stop perf in do_exit().

Additionally, harden PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN and PERF_SAMPLE_STACK_USER
to abort when the current task does not have an mm (exit_mm() makes
sure to set current->mm = NULL; before commencing with the actual
teardown). Such that CPU wide events don't trip on this same problem.

e800ac5120 perf: Only dump the throttle log for the leader
The PERF_RECORD_THROTTLE records are dumped for all throttled events.
It's not necessary for group events, which are throttled altogether.

Optimize it by only dump the throttle log for the leader.

The sample right after the THROTTLE record must be generated by the
actual target event. It is good enough for the perf tool to locate the
actual target event.

9734e25fbf perf: Fix the throttle logic for a group
The current throttle logic doesn't work well with a group, e.g., the
following sampling-read case.

$ perf record -e "{cycles,cycles}:S" ...

$ perf report -D | grep THROTTLE | tail -2
            THROTTLE events:        426  ( 9.0%)
          UNTHROTTLE events:        425  ( 9.0%)

$ perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE -a4 | tail -n 5
0 1020120874009167 0x74970 [0x68]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x1):
... sample_read:
.... group nr 2
..... id 0000000000000327, value 000000000cbb993a, lost 0
..... id 0000000000000328, value 00000002211c26df, lost 0

The second cycles event has a much larger value than the first cycles
event in the same group.

The current throttle logic in the generic code only logs the THROTTLE
event. It relies on the specific driver implementation to disable
events. For all ARCHs, the implementation is similar. Only the event is
disabled, rather than the group.

The logic to disable the group should be generic for all ARCHs. Add the
logic in the generic code. The following patch will remove the buggy
driver-specific implementation.

The throttle only happens when an event is overflowed. Stop the entire
group when any event in the group triggers the throttle.
The MAX_INTERRUPTS is set to all throttle events.

The unthrottled could happen in 3 places.
- event/group sched. All events in the group are scheduled one by one.
  All of them will be unthrottled eventually. Nothing needs to be
  changed.
- The perf_adjust_freq_unthr_events for each tick. Needs to restart the
  group altogether.
- The __perf_event_period(). The whole group needs to be restarted
  altogether as well.

With the fix,
$ sudo perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE -a4 | tail -n 5

18049c8cff perf/aux: Allocate non-contiguous AUX pages by default
perf always allocates contiguous AUX pages based on aux_watermark.
However, this contiguous allocation doesn't benefit all PMUs. For
instance, ARM SPE and TRBE operate with virtual pages, and Coresight
ETR allocates a separate buffer. For these PMUs, allocating contiguous
AUX pages unnecessarily exacerbates memory fragmentation. This
fragmentation can prevent their use on long-running devices.

This patch modifies the perf driver to be memory-friendly by default,
by allocating non-contiguous AUX pages. For PMUs requiring contiguous
pages (Intel BTS and some Intel PT), the existing
PERF_PMU_CAP_AUX_NO_SG capability can be used. For PMUs that don't
require but can benefit from contiguous pages (some Intel PT), a new
capability, PERF_PMU_CAP_AUX_PREFER_LARGE, is added to maintain their
existing behavior.

6e3092d788 kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite
uprobe_write_opcode() does some pretty low-level things that really, it
shouldn't be doing: for example, manually breaking COW by allocating
anonymous folios and replacing mapped pages.

Further, it does seem to do some shaky things: for example, writing to
possible COW-shared anonymous pages or zapping anonymous pages that might
be pinned.  We're also not taking care of uffd, uffd-wp, softdirty ... 
although rather corner cases here.  Let's just get it right like ordinary
ptrace writes would.

Let's rewrite the code, leaving COW-breaking to core-MM, triggered by
FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE (note that the code was already using FOLL_FORCE).

We'll use GUP to lookup/faultin the page and break COW if required.  Then,
we'll walk the page tables using a folio_walk to perform our page
modification atomically by temporarily unmap the PTE + flushing the TLB.

Likely, we could avoid the temporary unmap in case we can just atomically
write the instruction, but that will be a separate project.

Unfortunately, we still have to implement the zapping logic manually,
because we only want to zap in specific circumstances (e.g., page content
identical).

Note that we can now handle large folios (compound pages) and the shared
zeropage just fine, so drop these checks.

b56e644665 kernel/events/uprobes: pass VMA instead of MM to remove_breakpoint()
Patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite", v3.

Currently, uprobe_write_opcode() implements COW-breaking manually, which
is really far from ideal.  Further, there is interest in supporting
uprobes on hugetlb pages [1], and leaving at least the COW-breaking to the
core will make this much easier.

Also, I think the current code doesn't really handle some things properly
(see patch #3) when replacing/zapping pages.

Let's rewrite it, to leave COW-breaking to the fault handler, and handle
registration/unregistration by temporarily unmapping the anonymous page,
modifying it, and mapping it again.  We still have to implement zapping of
anonymous pages ourselves, unfortunately.

We could look into not performing the temporary unmapping if we can
perform the write atomically, which would likely also make adding hugetlb
support a lot easier.  But, limited (e.g., only PMD/PUD) hugetlb support
could be added on top of this with some tweaking.

Note that we now won't have to allocate another anonymous folio when
unregistering (which will be beneficial for hugetlb as well), we can
simply modify the already-mapped one from the registration (if any).  When
registering a uprobe, we'll first trigger a ptrace-like write fault to
break COW, to then modify the already-mapped page.

Briefly sanity tested with perf probes and with the bpf uprobes selftest.


This patch (of 3):

Pass VMA instead of MM to remove_breakpoint() and remove the "MM" argument
from install_breakpoint(), because it can easily be derived from the VMA.

881097c054 perf: Fix confusing aux iteration
While an event tears down all links to it as an aux, the iteration
happens on the event's group leader instead of the group itself.

If the event is a group leader, it has no effect because the event is
also its own group leader. But otherwise there would be a risk to detach
all the siblings events from the wrong group leader.

It just happens to work because each sibling's aux link is tested
against the right event before proceeding. Also the ctx lock is the same
for the events and their group leader so the iteration is safe.

Yet the iteration is confusing. Clarify the actual intent.

d20eb2d5fe perf: Fix irq work dereferencing garbage
The following commit:

	da916e96e2 ("perf: Make perf_pmu_unregister() useable")

has introduced two significant event's parent lifecycle changes:

1) An event that has exited now has EVENT_TOMBSTONE as a parent.
   This can result in a situation where the delayed wakeup irq_work can
   accidentally dereference EVENT_TOMBSTONE on:

CPU 0                                          CPU 1

        event_sched_out(child)
        raw_spin_unlock(&ctx->lock)
                                              perf_event_release_kernel(parent)
                                                  perf_remove_from_context(child)

                                                  // Removes from context inline
                                                  __perf_remove_from_context(child)

                rcu_dereference(child->parent->rb) <--- CRASH

This also concerns the call to kill_fasync() on parent->fasync.

2) The final parent reference count decrement can now happen before the
   the final child reference count decrement. ie: the parent can now
   be freed before its child. On PREEMPT_RT, this can result in a
   situation where the delayed wakeup irq_work can accidentally
   dereference a freed parent:

CPU 0                                          CPU 1                              CPU 2

This also concerns the call to kill_fasync() on parent->fasync.

The "easy" solution to 1) is to check that event->parent is not
EVENT_TOMBSTONE on perf_event_wakeup() (including both ring buffer
and fasync uses).

The "easy" solution to 2) is to turn perf_event_wakeup() to wholefully
run under rcu_read_lock().

However because of 2), sanity would prescribe to make event::parent
an __rcu pointer and annotate each and every users to prove they are
reliable.

Propose an alternate solution and restore the stable pointer to the
parent until all its children have called _free_event() themselves to
avoid any further accident. Also revert the EVENT_TOMBSTONE design
that is mostly here to determine which caller of perf_event_exit_event()
must perform the refcount decrement on a child event matching the
increment in inherit_event().

Arrange instead for checking the attach state of an event prior to its
removal and decrement the refcount of the child accordingly.

22d38babb3 perf: Fix failing inherit_event() doing extra refcount decrement on parent
When inherit_event() fails after the child allocation but before the
parent refcount has been incremented, calling put_event() wrongly
decrements the reference to the parent, risking to free it too early.

Also pmu_get_event() can't be holding a reference to the child
concurrently at this point since it is under pmus_srcu critical section.

Fix it with restoring the deleted free_event() function and call it on
the failing child in order to free it directly under the verified
assumption that its refcount is only 1. The refcount to the parent is
then voluntarily omitted.

f51972e6f8 perf/core: Fix broken throttling when max_samples_per_tick=1
According to the throttling mechanism, the pmu interrupts number can not
exceed the max_samples_per_tick in one tick. But this mechanism is
ineffective when max_samples_per_tick=1, because the throttling check is
skipped during the first interrupt and only performed when the second
interrupt arrives.

Perhaps this bug may cause little influence in one tick, but if in a
larger time scale, the problem can not be underestimated.

When max_samples_per_tick = 1:
Allowed-interrupts-per-second max-samples-per-second  default-HZ  ARCH
200                           100                     100         X86
500                           250                     250         ARM64
...
Obviously, the pmu interrupt number far exceed the user's expect.

0db61388b3 perf/core: Change to POLLERR for pinned events with error
Commit:

  f4b07fd62d ("perf/core: Use POLLHUP for pinned events in error")

started to emit POLLHUP for pinned events in an error state.

But the POLLHUP is also used to signal events that the attached task is
terminated.  To distinguish pinned per-task events in the error state
it would need to check if the task is live.

Change it to POLLERR to make it clear.

Due to an oversight in merging:

on top of:

  56799bc035 ("perf: Fix hang while freeing sigtrap event")

.. it is now possible to hit put_event(EVENT_TOMBSTONE), which makes
the computer sad.

This also means that for the event->parent == EVENT_TOMBSTONE, the
put_event() matching inherit_event() has gone missing.

Previously this was done in perf_event_release_kernel() after calling
perf_remove_from_context(), but with it delegated to put_event(), this
case is now entirely missed, leading to leaks.

2839f393c6 perf/core: Fix put_ctx() ordering
So there are three situations:

* If perf_event_free_task() has removed all the children from the parent list
  before perf_event_release_kernel() got a chance to even iterate them, then
  it's all good as there is no get_ctx() pending.

* If perf_event_release_kernel() iterates a child event, but it gets freed
  meanwhile by perf_event_free_task() while the mutexes are temporarily
  unlocked, it's all good because while locking again the ctx mutex,
  perf_event_release_kernel() observes TASK_TOMBSTONE.

* But if perf_event_release_kernel() frees the child event before
  perf_event_free_task() got a chance, we may face this scenario:

    perf_event_release_kernel()                                  perf_event_free_task()
    --------------------------                                   ------------------------
    mutex_lock(&event->child_mutex)
    get_ctx(child->ctx)
    mutex_unlock(&event->child_mutex)

    mutex_lock(ctx->mutex)
    mutex_lock(&event->child_mutex)
    perf_remove_from_context(child)
    mutex_unlock(&event->child_mutex)
    mutex_unlock(ctx->mutex)

                                                                 // This lock acquires ctx->refcount == 2
                                                                 // visibility
                                                                 mutex_lock(ctx->mutex)
                                                                 ctx->task = TASK_TOMBSTONE
                                                                 mutex_unlock(ctx->mutex)

                                                                 wait_var_event()
                                                                     // enters prepare_to_wait() since
                                                                     // ctx->refcount == 2
                                                                     // is guaranteed to be seen
                                                                     set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE)
                                                                     smp_mb()
                                                                     if (ctx->refcount != 1)
                                                                         schedule()
    put_ctx()
       // NOT fully ordered! Only RELEASE semantics
       refcount_dec_and_test()
           atomic_fetch_sub_release()
       // So TASK_TOMBSTONE is not guaranteed to be seen
       if (ctx->task == TASK_TOMBSTONE)
           wake_up_var()

Basically it's a broken store buffer:

    perf_event_release_kernel()                                  perf_event_free_task()
    --------------------------                                   ------------------------
    ctx->task = TASK_TOMBSTONE                                   smp_store_release(&ctx->refcount, ctx->refcount - 1)
    smp_mb()
    READ_ONCE(ctx->refcount)                                     READ_ONCE(ctx->task)

So we need a smp_mb__after_atomic() before looking at ctx->task.

da916e96e2 perf: Make perf_pmu_unregister() useable
Previously it was only safe to call perf_pmu_unregister() if there
were no active events of that pmu around -- which was impossible to
guarantee since it races all sorts against perf_init_event().

Rework the whole thing by:

 - keeping track of all events for a given pmu

 - 'hiding' the pmu from perf_init_event()

 - waiting for the appropriate (s)rcu grace periods such that all
   prior references to the PMU will be completed

 - detaching all still existing events of that pmu (see first point)
   and moving them to a new REVOKED state.

 - actually freeing the pmu data.

Where notably the new REVOKED state must inhibit all event actions
from reaching code that wants to use event->pmu.

0a00a43b8c perf: Simplify child event tear-down
Currently perf_event_release_kernel() will iterate the child events and attempt
tear-down. However, it removes them from the child_list using list_move(),
notably skipping the state management done by perf_child_detach().

Crucially, it fails to clear PERF_ATTACH_CHILD, which opens the door for a
concurrent perf_remove_from_context() to race.

This way child_list management stays fully serialized using child_mutex.

56799bc035 perf: Fix hang while freeing sigtrap event
Perf can hang while freeing a sigtrap event if a related deferred
signal hadn't managed to be sent before the file got closed:

perf_event_overflow()
   task_work_add(perf_pending_task)

fput()
   task_work_add(____fput())

task_work_run()
    ____fput()

                        rcuwait_wait_event()

Once task_work_run() is running, the list of pending callbacks is
removed from the task_struct and from this point on task_work_cancel()
can't remove any pending and not yet started work items, hence the
task_work_cancel() failure and the hang on rcuwait_wait_event().

Task work could be changed to remove one work at a time, so a work
running on the current task can always cancel a pending one, however
the wait / wake design is still subject to inverted dependencies when
remote targets are involved, as pictured by Oleg:

T1                                                      T2

Therefore the only option left is to acquire the event reference count
upon queueing the perf task work and release it from the task work, just
like it was done before 3a5465418f ("perf: Fix event leak upon exec and file release")
but without the leaks it fixed.

Some adjustments are necessary to make it work:

* A child event might dereference its parent upon freeing. Care must be
  taken to release the parent last.

* Some places assuming the event doesn't have any reference held and
  therefore can be freed right away must instead put the reference and
  let the reference counting to its job.

0cd575cab1 uprobes: Avoid false-positive lockdep splat on CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y in the ri_timer() uprobe timer callback, use raw_write_seqcount_*()
Avoid a false-positive lockdep warning in the CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y
configuration when using write_seqcount_begin() in the uprobe timer
callback by using raw_write_* APIs.

Uprobe's use of timer callback is guaranteed to not race with itself
for a given uprobe_task, and as such seqcount's insistence on having
preemption disabled on the writer side is irrelevant. So switch to
raw_ variants of seqcount API instead of disabling preemption unnecessarily.

Also, point out in the comments more explicitly why we use seqcount
despite our reader side being rather simple and never retrying. We favor
well-maintained kernel primitive in favor of open-coding our own memory
barriers.

There's no clear Fixes tag, because this bug is a side-effect of
multiple interacting commits over time (up to 15 years old), not
a single regression.

The code initially incremented refcount then assigned context
immediately after the child_event was created. Later, an early
validity check for child_event was added before the
refcount/assignment. Even later, a WARN_ON_ONCE() cleanup check was
added, assuming event->ctx is valid if the pmu_ctx is valid.
The problem is that the WARN_ON_ONCE() could trigger after the initial
check passed but before child_event->ctx was assigned, violating its
precondition. The solution is to assign child_event->ctx right after
its initial validation. This ensures the context exists for any
subsequent checks or cleanup routines, resolving the WARN_ON_ONCE().

To resolve it, defer the refcount update and child_event->ctx assignment
directly after child_event->pmu_ctx is set but before checking if the
parent event is orphaned. The cleanup routine depends on
event->pmu_ctx being non-NULL before it verifies event->ctx is
non-NULL. This also maintains the author's original intent of passing
in child_ctx to find_get_pmu_context before its refcount/assignment.

3d38922abf mseal sysmap: uprobe mapping
Provide support to mseal the uprobe mapping.

Unlike other system mappings, the uprobe mapping is not established during
program startup.  However, its lifetime is the same as the process's
lifetime.  It could be sealed from creation.

Test was done with perf tool, and observe the uprobe mapping is sealed.

a3c3c66670 perf/core: Fix child_total_time_enabled accounting bug at task exit
The perf events code fails to account for total_time_enabled of
inactive events.

Here is a failure case for accounting total_time_enabled for
CPU PMU events:

  sudo ./perf stat -vvv -e armv8_pmuv3_0/event=0x08/ -e armv8_pmuv3_1/event=0x08/ -- stress-ng --pthread=2 -t 2s
  ...

  armv8_pmuv3_0/event=0x08/: 1138698008 2289429840 2174835740
  armv8_pmuv3_1/event=0x08/: 1826791390 1950025700 847648440
                             `          `          `
                             `          `          > total_time_running with child
                             `          > total_time_enabled with child
                             > count with child

  Performance counter stats for 'stress-ng --pthread=2 -t 2s':

       1,138,698,008      armv8_pmuv3_0/event=0x08/                                               (94.99%)
       1,826,791,390      armv8_pmuv3_1/event=0x08/                                               (43.47%)

The two events above are opened on two different CPU PMUs, for example,
each event is opened for a cluster in an Arm big.LITTLE system, they
will never run on the same CPU.  In theory, the total enabled time should
be same for both events, as two events are opened and closed together.

As the result show, the two events' total enabled time including
child event is different (2289429840 vs 1950025700).

This is because child events are not accounted properly
if a event is INACTIVE state when the task exits:

  perf_event_exit_event()
   `> perf_remove_from_context()
     `> __perf_remove_from_context()
       `> perf_child_detach()   -> Accumulate child_total_time_enabled
         `> list_del_event()    -> Update child event's time

The problem is the time accumulation happens prior to child event's
time updating. Thus, it misses to account the last period's time when
the event exits.

The perf core layer follows the rule that timekeeping is tied to state
change. To address the issue, make __perf_remove_from_context()
handle the task exit case by passing 'DETACH_EXIT' to it and
invoke perf_event_state() for state alongside with accounting the time.

Then, perf_child_detach() populates the time into the parent's time metrics.

After this patch, the bug is fixed:

  sudo ./perf stat -vvv -e armv8_pmuv3_0/event=0x08/ -e armv8_pmuv3_1/event=0x08/ -- stress-ng --pthread=2 -t 10s
  ...

  armv8_pmuv3_1/event=0x08/: 22428964974 32157963940 10259794940

   Performance counter stats for 'stress-ng --pthread=2 -t 10s':

      15,396,770,398      armv8_pmuv3_0/event=0x08/                                               (68.10%)
      22,428,964,974      armv8_pmuv3_1/event=0x08/                                               (31.90%)

 - Various minor updates to the LSM Rust bindings

   Changes include marking trivial Rust bindings as inlines and comment
   tweaks to better reflect the LSM hooks.

 - Add LSM/SELinux access controls to io_uring_allowed()

   Similar to the io_uring_disabled sysctl, add a LSM hook to
   io_uring_allowed() to enable LSMs a simple way to enforce security
   policy on the use of io_uring. This pull request includes SELinux
   support for this new control using the io_uring/allowed permission.

 - Remove an unused parameter from the security_perf_event_open() hook

   The perf_event_attr struct parameter was not used by any currently
   supported LSMs, remove it from the hook.

 - Add an explicit MAINTAINERS entry for the credentials code

   We've seen problems in the past where patches to the credentials code
   sent by non-maintainers would often languish on the lists for
   multiple months as there was no one explicitly tasked with the
   responsibility of reviewing and/or merging credentials related code.

   Considering that most of the code under security/ has a vested
   interest in ensuring that the credentials code is well maintained,
   I'm volunteering to look after the credentials code and Serge Hallyn
   has also volunteered to step up as an official reviewer. I posted the
   MAINTAINERS update as a RFC to LKML in hopes that someone else would
   jump up with an "I'll do it!", but beyond Serge it was all crickets.

506e64e710 perf: attach/detach PMU specific data
The LBR call stack data has to be saved/restored during context switch
to fix the shorter LBRs call stacks issue in the  system-wide mode.
Allocate PMU specific data and attach them to the corresponding
task_struct during LBR call stack monitoring.

When a LBR call stack event is accounted, the perf_ctx_data for the
related tasks will be allocated/attached by attach_perf_ctx_data().
When a LBR call stack event is unaccounted, the perf_ctx_data for
related tasks will be detached/freed by detach_perf_ctx_data().

The LBR call stack event could be a per-task event or a system-wide
event.
- For a per-task event, perf only allocates the perf_ctx_data for the
  current task. If the allocation fails, perf will error out.
- For a system-wide event, perf has to allocate the perf_ctx_data for
  both the existing tasks and the upcoming tasks.
  The allocation for the existing tasks is done in perf_event_alloc().
  If any allocation fails, perf will error out.
  The allocation for the new tasks will be done in perf_event_fork().
  A global reader/writer semaphore, global_ctx_data_rwsem, is added to
  address the global race.
- The perf_ctx_data only be freed by the last LBR call stack event.
  The number of the per-task events is tracked by refcount of each task.
  Since the system-wide events impact all tasks, it's not practical to
  go through the whole task list to update the refcount for each
  system-wide event. The number of system-wide events is tracked by a
  global variable global_ctx_data_ref.

cb43691293 perf: Save PMU specific data in task_struct
Some PMU specific data has to be saved/restored during context switch,
e.g. LBR call stack data. Currently, the data is saved in event context
structure, but only for per-process event. For system-wide event,
because of missing the LBR call stack data after context switch, LBR
callstacks are always shorter in comparison to per-process mode.

For example,
  Per-process mode:
  $perf record --call-graph lbr -- taskset -c 0 ./tchain_edit

  -   99.90%    99.86%  tchain_edit  tchain_edit       [.] f3
       99.86% _start
          __libc_start_main
          generic_start_main
          main
          f1
        - f2
             f3

  System-wide mode:
  $perf record --call-graph lbr -a -- taskset -c 0 ./tchain_edit

  -   99.88%    99.82%  tchain_edit  tchain_edit        [.] f3
   - 62.02% main
        f1
        f2
        f3
   - 28.83% f1
      - f2
        f3
   - 28.83% f1
      - f2
           f3
   - 8.88% generic_start_main
        main
        f1
        f2
        f3

It isn't practical to simply allocate the data for system-wide event in
CPU context structure for all tasks. We have no idea which CPU a task
will be scheduled to. The duplicated LBR data has to be maintained on
every CPU context structure. That's a huge waste. Otherwise, the LBR
data still lost if the task is scheduled to another CPU.

Save the pmu specific data in task_struct. The size of pmu specific data
is 788 bytes for LBR call stack. Usually, the overall amount of threads
doesn't exceed a few thousands. For 10K threads, keeping LBR data would
consume additional ~8MB. The additional space will only be allocated
during LBR call stack monitoring. It will be released when the
monitoring is finished.

Furthermore, moving task_ctx_data from perf_event_context to task_struct
can reduce complexity and make things clearer. E.g. perf doesn't need to
swap task_ctx_data on optimized context switch path.
This patch set is just the first step. There could be other
optimization/extension on top of this patch set. E.g. for cgroup
profiling, perf just needs to save/store the LBR call stack information
for tasks in specific cgroup. That could reduce the additional space.
Also, the LBR call stack can be available for software events, or allow
even debugging use cases, like LBRs on crash later.

Because of the alignment requirement of Intel Arch LBR, the Kmem cache
is used to allocate the PMU specific data. It's required when child task
allocates the space. Save it in struct perf_ctx_data.
The refcount in struct perf_ctx_data is used to track the users of pmu
specific data.

f4b07fd62d perf/core: Use POLLHUP for pinned events in error
Pinned performance events can enter an error state when they fail to be
scheduled in the context due to a failed constraint or some other conflict
or condition.

In error state these events won't generate any samples anymore and are
silently ignored until they are recovered by PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE,
or the condition can also change so that they can be scheduled in.

Tooling should be allowed to know about the state change, but
currently there's no mechanism to notify tooling when events enter
an error state.

One way to do this is to issue a POLLHUP event to poll(2) to handle this.
Reading events in an error state would return 0 (EOF) and it matches to
the behavior of POLLHUP according to the man page.

Tooling should remove the fd of the event from pollfd after getting
POLLHUP, otherwise it'll be returned repeatedly.

096cbb80ab kernel/events/uprobes: handle device-exclusive entries correctly in __replace_page()
Ever since commit b756a3b5e7 ("mm: device exclusive memory access") we
can return with a device-exclusive entry from page_vma_mapped_walk().

__replace_page() is not prepared for that, so teach it about these PFN
swap PTEs.  Note that device-private entries are so far not applicable on
that path, because GUP would never have returned such folios (conversion
to device-private happens by page migration, not in-place conversion of
the PTE).

There is a race between GUP and us locking the folio to look it up using
page_vma_mapped_walk(), so this is likely a fix (unless something else
could prevent that race, but it doesn't look like).  pte_pfn() on
something that is not a present pte could give use garbage, and we'd
wrongly mess up the mapcount because it was already adjusted by calling
folio_remove_rmap_pte() when making the entry device-exclusive.

Follow the advice in Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.rst:

  "- show() should only use sysfs_emit() or sysfs_emit_at() when formatting
     the value to be returned to user space."

No change in functionality intended.

fd3f5d385a perf/core: Remove optional 'size' arguments from strscpy() calls
The 'size' parameter is optional and strscpy() automatically determines
the length of the destination buffer using sizeof() if the argument is
omitted. This makes the explicit sizeof() calls unnecessary.

Furthermore, KSYM_NAME_LEN is equal to sizeof(name) and can also be
removed. Remove them to shorten and simplify the code.

fa6192adc3 uprobes/x86: Harden uretprobe syscall trampoline check
Jann reported a possible issue when trampoline_check_ip returns
address near the bottom of the address space that is allowed to
call into the syscall if uretprobes are not set up:

Though the mmap minimum address restrictions will typically prevent
creating mappings there, let's make sure uretprobe syscall checks
for that.

4eabf533fb perf/core: Detach 'struct perf_cpu_pmu_context' and 'struct pmu' lifetimes
In prepration for being able to unregister a PMU with existing events,
it becomes important to detach struct perf_cpu_pmu_context lifetimes
from that of struct pmu.

Notably struct perf_cpu_pmu_context embeds a struct perf_event_pmu_context
that can stay referenced until the last event goes.

8eaec7bb72 perf/core: Remove retry loop from perf_mmap()
AFAICT there is no actual benefit from the mutex drop on re-try. The
'worst' case scenario is that we instantly re-gain the mutex without
perf_mmap_close() getting it. So might as well make that the normal
case.

Reflow the code to make the ring buffer detach case naturally flow
into the no ring buffer case.

061c991697 perf/hw_breakpoint: Return EOPNOTSUPP for unsupported breakpoint type
Currently, __reserve_bp_slot() returns -ENOSPC for unsupported
breakpoint types on the architecture. For example, powerpc
does not support hardware instruction breakpoints. This causes
the perf_skip BPF selftest to fail, as neither ENOENT nor
EOPNOTSUPP is returned by perf_event_open for unsupported
breakpoint types. As a result, the test that should be skipped
for this arch is not correctly identified.

To resolve this, hw_breakpoint_event_init() should exit early by
checking for unsupported breakpoint types using
hw_breakpoint_slots_cached() and return the appropriate error
(-EOPNOTSUPP).

003659fec9 perf/core: Fix perf_pmu_register() vs. perf_init_event()
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. ]

f8c857238a uprobes: Remove too strict lockdep_assert() condition in hprobe_expire()
hprobe_expire() is used to atomically switch pending uretprobe instance
(struct return_instance) from being SRCU protected to be refcounted.
This can be done from background timer thread, or synchronously within
current thread when task is forked.

In the former case, return_instance has to be protected through RCU read
lock, and that's what hprobe_expire() used to check with
lockdep_assert(rcu_read_lock_held()).

But in the latter case (hprobe_expire() called from dup_utask()) there
is no RCU lock being held, and it's both unnecessary and incovenient.
Inconvenient due to the intervening memory allocations inside
dup_return_instance()'s loop. Unnecessary because dup_utask() is called
synchronously in current thread, and no uretprobe can run at that point,
so return_instance can't be freed either.

So drop rcu_read_lock_held() condition, and expand corresponding comment
to explain necessary lifetime guarantees. lockdep_assert()-detected
issue is a false positive.

The cause is that zero pfn is set to the PTE without increasing the RSS
count in mfill_atomic_pte_zeropage() and the refcount of zero folio does
not increase accordingly. Then, the operation on the same pfn is performed
in uprobe_write_opcode()->__replace_page() to unconditional decrease the
RSS count and old_folio's refcount.

Therefore, two bugs are introduced:

 1. The RSS count is incorrect, when process exit, the check_mm() report
    error "Bad rss-count".

 2. The reserved folio (zero folio) is freed when folio->refcount is zero,
    then free_pages_prepare->free_page_is_bad() report error
    "Bad page state".

There is more, the following warning could also theoretically be triggered:

  __replace_page()
    -> ...
      -> folio_remove_rmap_pte()
        -> VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(is_zero_folio(folio), folio)

Considering that uprobe hit on the zero folio is a very rare case, just
reject zero old folio immediately after get_user_page_vma_remote().

2016066c66 perf/core: Order the PMU list to fix warning about unordered pmu_ctx_list
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.

0fe8813baf perf/core: Add RCU read lock protection to perf_iterate_ctx()
The perf_iterate_ctx() function performs RCU list traversal but
currently lacks RCU read lock protection. This causes lockdep warnings
when running perf probe with unshare(1) under CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST=y:

	WARNING: suspicious RCU usage

8aeacf2570 perf/core: Move perf_event sysctls into kernel/events
Move ctl tables to two files:

   perf_cpu_time_max_percent into kernel/events/core.c

 - perf_event_max_{stack,context_per_stack} into
   kernel/events/callchain.c

Make static variables and functions that are fully contained in core.c
and callchain.cand remove them from include/linux/perf_event.h.
Additionally six_hundred_forty_kb is moved to callchain.c.

Two new sysctl tables are added ({callchain,events_core}_sysctl_table)
with their respective sysctl registration functions.

This is part of a greater effort to move ctl tables into their
respective subsystems which will reduce the merge conflicts in
kerenel/sysctl.c.

8ce939a0fa perf: Avoid the read if the count is already updated
The event may have been updated in the PMU-specific implementation,
e.g., Intel PEBS counters snapshotting. The common code should not
read and overwrite the value.

The PERF_SAMPLE_READ in the data->sample_type can be used to detect
whether the PMU-specific value is available. If yes, avoid the
pmu->read() in the common code. Add a new flag, skip_read, to track the
case.

83179cd678 uprobes: Remove the spinlock within handle_singlestep()
This patch introduces a flag to track TIF_SIGPENDING is suppress
temporarily during the uprobe single-step. Upon uprobe singlestep is
handled and the flag is confirmed, it could resume the TIF_SIGPENDING
directly without acquiring the siglock in most case, then reducing
contention and improving overall performance.

I've use the script developed by Andrii in [1] to run benchmark. The CPU
used was Kunpeng916 (Hi1616), 4 NUMA nodes, 64 cores@2.4GHz running the
kernel on next tree + the optimization for get_xol_insn_slot() [2].

64c37e134b kernel: be more careful about dup_mmap() failures and uprobe registering
If a memory allocation fails during dup_mmap(), the maple tree can be left
in an unsafe state for other iterators besides the exit path.  All the
locks are dropped before the exit_mmap() call (in mm/mmap.c), but the
incomplete mm_struct can be reached through (at least) the rmap finding
the vmas which have a pointer back to the mm_struct.

Up to this point, there have been no issues with being able to find an
mm_struct that was only partially initialised.  Syzbot was able to make
the incomplete mm_struct fail with recent forking changes, so it has been
proven unsafe to use the mm_struct that hasn't been initialised, as
referenced in the link below.

Although 8ac662f5da ("fork: avoid inappropriate uprobe access to
invalid mm") fixed the uprobe access, it does not completely remove the
race.

This patch sets the MMF_OOM_SKIP to avoid the iteration of the vmas on the
oom side (even though this is extremely unlikely to be selected as an oom
victim in the race window), and sets MMF_UNSTABLE to avoid other potential
users from using a partially initialised mm_struct.

When registering vmas for uprobe, skip the vmas in an mm that is marked
unstable.  Modifying a vma in an unstable mm may cause issues if the mm
isn't fully initialised.

b709eb872e perf: map pages in advance
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.

b583ef82b6 uprobes: Fix race in uprobe_free_utask
Max Makarov reported kernel panic [1] in perf user callchain code.

The reason for that is the race between uprobe_free_utask and bpf
profiler code doing the perf user stack unwind and is triggered
within uprobe_free_utask function:
  - after current->utask is freed and
  - before current->utask is set to NULL

  # bpftrace -e 'profile:hz:100000 { @[ustack()] = count(); }'

Fixing this by making sure current->utask pointer is set to NULL
before we start to release the utask object.

8622e45b5d uprobes: Reuse return_instances between multiple uretprobes within task
Instead of constantly allocating and freeing very short-lived
struct return_instance, reuse it as much as possible within current
task. For that, store a linked list of reusable return_instances within
current->utask.

The only complication is that ri_timer() might be still processing such
return_instance. And so while the main uretprobe processing logic might
be already done with return_instance and would be OK to immediately
reuse it for the next uretprobe instance, it's not correct to
unconditionally reuse it just like that.

Instead we make sure that ri_timer() can't possibly be processing it by
using seqcount_t, with ri_timer() being "a writer", while
free_ret_instance() being "a reader". If, after we unlink return
instance from utask->return_instances list, we know that ri_timer()
hasn't gotten to processing utask->return_instances yet, then we can be
sure that immediate return_instance reuse is OK, and so we put it
onto utask->ri_pool for future (potentially, almost immediate) reuse.

This change shows improvements both in single CPU performance (by
avoiding relatively expensive kmalloc/free combon) and in terms of
multi-CPU scalability, where you can see that per-CPU throughput doesn't
decline as steeply with increased number of CPUs (which were previously
attributed to kmalloc()/free() through profiling):

So now uretprobe stays a bit closer to that performance.

0cf981de76 uprobes: Ensure return_instance is detached from the list before freeing
Ensure that by the time we call free_ret_instance() to clean up an
instance of struct return_instance it isn't reachable from
utask->return_instances anymore.

free_ret_instance() is called in a few different situations, all but one
of which already are fine w.r.t. return_instance visibility:

  - uprobe_free_utask() guarantees that ri_timer() won't be called
    (through timer_delete_sync() call), and so there is no need to
    unlink anything, because entire utask is being freed;
  - uprobe_handle_trampoline() is already unlinking to-be-freed
    return_instance with rcu_assign_pointer() before calling
    free_ret_instance().

Only cleanup_return_instances() violates this property, which so far is
not causing problems due to RCU-delayed freeing of return_instance,
which we'll change in the next patch. So make sure we unlink
return_instance before passing it into free_ret_instance(), as otherwise
reuse will be unsafe.

636666a1c7 uprobes: Decouple return_instance list traversal and freeing
free_ret_instance() has two unrelated responsibilities: actually
cleaning up return_instance's resources and freeing memory, and also
helping with utask->return_instances list traversal by returning the
next alive pointer.

There is no reason why these two aspects have to be mixed together, so
turn free_ret_instance() into void-returning function and make callers
do list traversal on their own.

We'll use this simplification in the next patch that will guarantee that
to-be-freed return_instance isn't reachable from utask->return_instances
list.

2ff913ab3f uprobes: Simplify session consumer tracking
In practice, each return_instance will typically contain either zero or
one return_consumer, depending on whether it has any uprobe session
consumer attached or not. It's highly unlikely that more than one uprobe
session consumers will be attached to any given uprobe, so there is no
need to optimize for that case. But the way we currently do memory
allocation and accounting is by pre-allocating the space for 4 session
consumers in contiguous block of memory next to struct return_instance
fixed part. This is unnecessarily wasteful.

This patch changes this to keep struct return_instance fixed-sized with one
pre-allocated return_consumer, while (in a highly unlikely scenario)
allowing for more session consumers in a separate dynamically
allocated and reallocated array.

We also simplify accounting a bit by not maintaining a separate
temporary capacity for consumers array, and, instead, relying on
krealloc() to be a no-op if underlying memory can accommodate a slightly
bigger allocation (but again, it's very uncommon scenario to even have
to do this reallocation).

All this gets rid of ri_size(), simplifies push_consumer() and removes
confusing ri->consumers_cnt re-assignment, while containing this
singular preallocated consumer logic contained within a few simple

Having fixed-sized struct return_instance simplifies and speeds up
return_instance reuse that we ultimately add later in this patch set,

e0925f2dc4 uprobes: add speculative lockless VMA-to-inode-to-uprobe resolution
Given filp_cachep is marked SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU (and FMODE_BACKING
files, a special case, now goes through RCU-delated freeing), we can
safely access vma->vm_file->f_inode field locklessly under just
rcu_read_lock() protection, which enables looking up uprobe from
uprobes_tree completely locklessly and speculatively without the need to
acquire mmap_lock for reads. In most cases, anyway, assuming that there
are no parallel mm and/or VMA modifications. The underlying struct
file's memory won't go away from under us (even if struct file can be
reused in the meantime).

We rely on newly added mmap_lock_speculate_{try_begin,retry}() helpers to
validate that mm_struct stays intact for entire duration of this
speculation. If not, we fall back to mmap_lock-protected lookup.
The speculative logic is written in such a way that it will safely
handle any garbage values that might be read from vma or file structs.

Benchmarking results speak for themselves.
