2016-05-20perf trace: Warn when trying to resolve kernel addresses with kptr_restrict=1Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo3-1/+21
Hook into the libtraceevent plugin kernel symbol resolver to warn the user that that can't happen with kptr_restrict=1.

2016-05-20perf machine: Do not bail out if not managing to read ref reloc symbolArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-4/+5
This means the user can't access /proc/kallsyms, for instance, because /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict is set to 1. Instead leave the ref_reloc_sym as NULL and code using it will cope. This allows 'perf trace' to work on such systems for !root, the only issue would be when trying to resolve kernel symbols, which happens, for instance, in some libtracevent plugins. A warning for that case will be provided in the next patch in this series. Noticed in Ubuntu 16.04, that comes with kptr_restrict=1.

The perf_sample->ip_callchain->nr value includes all the entries in the ip_callchain->ip[] array, real addresses and PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER,etc}, while what the user expects is that what is in the kernel.perf_event_max_stack sysctl or in the upcoming per event perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack knob be honoured in terms of IP addresses in the stack trace. So allocate a bunch of extra entries for contexts, and do the accounting via perf_callchain_entry_ctx struct members. A new sysctl, kernel.perf_event_max_contexts_per_stack is also introduced for investigating possible bugs in the callchain implementation by some arch.

2016-05-16perf core: Add a 'nr' field to perf_event_callchain_contextArnaldo Carvalho de Melo9-17/+18
We will use it to count how many addresses are in the entry->ip[] array, excluding PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER,etc} entries, so that we can really return the number of entries specified by the user via the relevant sysctl, kernel.perf_event_max_contexts, or via the per event perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack knob. This way we keep the perf_sample->ip_callchain->nr meaning, that is the number of entries, be it real addresses or PERF_CONTEXT_ entries, while honouring the max_stack knobs, i.e. the end result will be max_stack entries if we have at least that many entries in a given stack trace.

2016-05-16perf stat: Use cpu-clock event for cpu targetsNamhyung Kim1-0/+3
Currently 'perf stat' always counts task-clock event by default. But it's somewhat confusing for system-wide targets (especially with 'sleep N' as the 'sleep' task just sleeps and doesn't use cputime). Changing to cpu-clock event instead for that case makes more sense IMHO. Before: # perf stat -a sleep 0.1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 403.038603 task-clock (msec) # 4.001 CPUs utilized 150 context-switches # 0.372 K/sec 7 cpu-migrations # 0.017 K/sec 71 page-faults # 0.176 K/sec 23,705,169 cycles # 0.059 GHz 15,888,166 instructions # 0.67 insn per cycle 3,326,078 branches # 8.253 M/sec 87,643 branch-misses # 2.64% of all branches 0.100737009 seconds time elapsed # After: # perf stat -a sleep 0.1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 404.271182 cpu-clock (msec) # 4.000 CPUs utilized 143 context-switches # 0.354 K/sec 13 cpu-migrations # 0.032 K/sec 73 page-faults # 0.181 K/sec 22,119,220 cycles # 0.055 GHz 13,622,065 instructions # 0.62 insn per cycle 2,918,769 branches # 7.220 M/sec 85,033 branch-misses # 2.91% of all branches 0.101073089 seconds time elapsed # Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> Cc: Andi Kleen <[email protected]> Cc: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]>
2016-05-16perf stat: Update runtime using cpu-clock eventNamhyung Kim1-2/+4
Currently only the task-clock event updates the runtime_nsec so it cannot show the metric when using cpu-clock events. However cpu clock works basically same as task-clock, so no need to not update the runtime IMHO.

2016-05-16perf symbols: Store vdso buildid unconditionallyHe Kuang2-2/+3
When unwinding callchains on a different machine, vdso info should be available so the unwind process won't be interrupted if address falls into vdso region. But in most cases, the addresses of sample events are not in vdso range, the buildid of a zero hit vdso won't be stored into perf.data.

The new signal_pending exit path in __rwsem_down_write_failed_common() was fingered as breaking his kernel by Tetsuo Handa. Upon inspection it was found that there are two things wrong with it; - it forgets to remove WAITING_BIAS if it leaves the list empty, or - it forgets to wake further waiters that were blocked on the now removed waiter. Especially the first issue causes new lock attempts to block and stall indefinitely, as the code assumes that pending waiters mean there is an owner that will wake when it releases the lock.

2016-05-14net/route: enforce hoplimit max valuePaolo Abeni2-0/+4
Currently, when creating or updating a route, no check is performed in both ipv4 and ipv6 code to the hoplimit value. The caller can i.e. set hoplimit to 256, and when such route will be used, packets will be sent with hoplimit/ttl equal to 0. This commit adds checks for the RTAX_HOPLIMIT value, in both ipv4 ipv6 route code, substituting any value greater than 255 with 255. This is consistent with what is currently done for ADVMSS and MTU in the ipv4 code. Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>

The slab name ends up being visible in the directory structure under /sys, and even if you don't have access rights to the file you can see the filenames. Just use a 64-bit counter instead of the pointer to the 'net' structure to generate a unique name. This code will go away in 4.7 when the conntrack code moves to a single kmemcache, but this is the backportable simple solution to avoiding leaking kernel pointers to user space.
