2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman2-0/+2
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

The following commit: 864c2357ca89 ("perf/core: Do not set cpuctx->cgrp for unscheduled cgroups") made list_update_cgroup_event() skip setting cpuctx->cgrp if no cgroup event targets %current's cgroup.

2017-10-27perf/core: Rewrite event timekeepingPeter Zijlstra1-256/+129
The current even timekeeping, which computes enabled and running times, uses 3 distinct timestamps to reflect the various event states: OFF (stopped), INACTIVE (enabled) and ACTIVE (running). Furthermore, the update rules are such that even INACTIVE events need their timestamps updated. This is undesirable because we'd like to not touch INACTIVE events if at all possible, this makes event scheduling (much) more expensive than needed. Rewrite the timekeeping to directly use event->state, this greatly simplifies the code and results in only having to update things when we change state, or an up-to-date value is requested (read).

to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the coccinelle script shown below and apply its output. For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in churn. However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following coccinelle script: ---- // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and // WRITE_ONCE() // $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2017-10-25bpf: permit multiple bpf attachments for a single perf eventYonghong Song1-18/+8
This patch enables multiple bpf attachments for a kprobe/uprobe/tracepoint single trace event. Each trace_event keeps a list of attached perf events. When an event happens, all attached bpf programs will be executed based on the order of attachment. A global bpf_event_mutex lock is introduced to protect prog_array attaching and detaching. An alternative will be introduce a mutex lock in every trace_event_call structure, but it takes a lot of extra memory. So a global bpf_event_mutex lock is a good compromise. The bpf prog detachment involves allocation of memory. If the allocation fails, a dummy do-nothing program will replace to-be-detached program in-place.

There were quite a few overlapping sets of changes here. Daniel's bug fix for off-by-ones in the new BPF branch instructions, along with the added allowances for "data_end > ptr + x" forms collided with the metadata additions. Along with those three changes came veritifer test cases, which in their final form I tried to group together properly. If I had just trimmed GIT's conflict tags as-is, this would have split up the meta tests unnecessarily. In the socketmap code, a set of preemption disabling changes overlapped with the rename of bpf_compute_data_end() to bpf_compute_data_pointers(). Changes were made to the mv88e6060.c driver set addr method which got removed in net-next.

2017-10-10perf/core: Avoid freeing static PMU contexts when PMU is unregisteredWill Deacon1-0/+8
Since commit: 1fd7e4169954 ("perf/core: Remove perf_cpu_context::unique_pmu") ... when a PMU is unregistered then its associated ->pmu_cpu_context is unconditionally freed. Whilst this is fine for dynamically allocated context types (i.e. those registered using perf_invalid_context), this causes a problem for sharing of static contexts such as perf_{sw,hw}_context, which are used by multiple built-in PMUs and effectively have a global lifetime. Whilst testing the ARM SPE driver, which must use perf_sw_context to support per-task AUX tracing, unregistering the driver as a result of a module unload resulted in: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000038 Internal error: Oops: 96000004 [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: [last unloaded: arm_spe_pmu] PC is at ctx_resched+0x38/0xe8 LR is at perf_event_exec+0x20c/0x278 [...] ctx_resched+0x38/0xe8 perf_event_exec+0x20c/0x278 setup_new_exec+0x88/0x118 load_elf_binary+0x26c/0x109c search_binary_handler+0x90/0x298 do_execveat_common.isra.14+0x540/0x618 SyS_execve+0x38/0x48 since the software context has been freed and the ctx.pmu->pmu_disable_count field has been set to NULL. This patch fixes the problem by avoiding the freeing of static PMU contexts altogether. Whilst the sharing of dynamic contexts is questionable, this actually requires the caller to share their context pointer explicitly and so the burden is on them to manage the object lifetime.

The following commit: d9a50b0256 ("perf/aux: Ensure aux_wakeup represents most recent wakeup index") changed the AUX wakeup position calculation to rounddown(), which causes a division-by-zero in AUX overwrite mode (aka "snapshot mode"). The zero denominator results from the fact that perf record doesn't set aux_watermark to anything, in which case the kernel will set it to half the AUX buffer size, but only for non-overwrite mode. In the overwrite mode aux_watermark stays zero. The good news is that, AUX overwrite mode, wakeups don't happen and related bookkeeping is not relevant, so we can simply forego the whole wakeup updates.

2017-09-20bpf: one perf event close won't free bpf program attached by another perf eventYonghong Song1-1/+2
This patch fixes a bug exhibited by the following scenario: 1. fd1 = perf_event_open with attr.config = ID1 2. attach bpf program prog1 to fd1 3. fd2 = perf_event_open with attr.config = ID1 <this will be successful> 4. user program closes fd2 and prog1 is detached from the tracepoint. 5. user program with fd1 does not work properly as tracepoint no output any more. The issue happens at step 4. Multiple perf_event_open can be called successfully, but only one bpf prog pointer in the tp_event. In the current logic, any fd release for the same tp_event will free the tp_event->prog. The fix is to free tp_event->prog only when the closing fd corresponds to the one which registered the program. Signed-off-by: Yonghong Song <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S.

2017-08-31mm, uprobes: fix multiple free of ->uprobes_state.xol_areaEric Biggers1-2/+0
Commit 7c051267931a ("mm, fork: make dup_mmap wait for mmap_sem for write killable") made it possible to kill a forking task while it is waiting to acquire its ->mmap_sem for write, in dup_mmap(). However, it was overlooked that this introduced an new error path before the new mm_struct's ->uprobes_state.xol_area has been set to NULL after being copied from the old mm_struct by the memcpy in dup_mm(). For a task that has previously hit a uprobe tracepoint, this resulted in the 'struct xol_area' being freed multiple times if the task was killed at just the right time while forking. Fix it by setting ->uprobes_state.xol_area to NULL in mm_init() rather than in uprobe_dup_mmap(). With CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS=y, the bug can be reproduced by the same C program given by commit 2b7e8665b4ff ("fork: fix incorrect fput of ->exe_file causing use-after-free"), provided that a uprobe tracepoint has been set on the fork_thread() function.

2017-08-29perf/core, x86: Add PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDRKan Liang1-0/+46
For understanding how the workload maps to memory channels and hardware behavior, it's very important to collect address maps with physical addresses. For example, 3D XPoint access can only be found by filtering the physical address. Add a new sample type for physical address. perf already has a facility to collect data virtual address. This patch introduces a function to convert the virtual address to physical address. The function is quite generic and can be extended to any architecture as long as a virtual address is provided. - For kernel direct mapping addresses, virt_to_phys is used to convert the virtual addresses to physical address. - For user virtual addresses, __get_user_pages_fast is used to walk the pages tables for user physical address. - This does not work for vmalloc addresses right now. These are not resolved, but code to do that could be added. The new sample type requires collecting the virtual address. The virtual address will not be output unless SAMPLE_ADDR is applied. For security, the physical address can only be exposed to root or privileged user.

2017-08-29perf/core, pt, bts: Get rid of itrace_startedAlexander Shishkin1-1/+6
I just noticed that hw.itrace_started and hw.config are aliased to the same location. Now, the PT driver happens to use both, which works out fine by sheer luck: - STORE(hw.itrace_start) is ordered before STORE(hw.config), in the program order, although there are no compiler barriers to ensure that, - to the perf_log_itrace_start() hw.itrace_start looks set at the same time as when it is intended to be set because both stores happen in the same path, - hw.config is never reset to zero in the PT driver. Now, the use of hw.config by the PT driver makes more sense (it being a HW PMU) than messing around with itrace_started, which is an awkward API to begin with. This patch replaces hw.itrace_started with an attach_state bit and an API call for the PMU drivers to use to communicate the condition.

2017-08-29perf/ftrace: Fix double traces of perf on ftrace:functionZhou Chengming1-4/+9
When running perf on the ftrace:function tracepoint, there is a bug which can be reproduced by: perf record -e ftrace:function -a sleep 20 & perf record -e ftrace:function ls perf script ls 10304 [005] 171.853235: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853237: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853239: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853240: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853242: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853244: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns We can see that all the function traces are doubled. The problem is caused by the inconsistency of the register function perf_ftrace_event_register() with the probe function perf_ftrace_function_call(). The former registers one probe for every perf_event. And the latter handles all perf_events on the current cpu. So when two perf_events on the current cpu, the traces of them will be doubled. So this patch adds an extra parameter "event" for perf_tp_event, only send sample data to this event when it's not NULL.

2017-08-29perf/core: Fix potential double-fetch bugMeng Xu1-0/+2
While examining the kernel source code, I found a dangerous operation that could turn into a double-fetch situation (a race condition bug) where the same userspace memory region are fetched twice into kernel with sanity checks after the first fetch while missing checks after the second fetch. 1. The first fetch happens in line 9573 get_user(size, &uattr->size). 2. Subsequently the 'size' variable undergoes a few sanity checks and transformations (line 9577 to 9584). 3. The second fetch happens in line 9610 copy_from_user(attr, uattr, size) 4. Given that 'uattr' can be fully controlled in userspace, an attacker can race condition to override 'uattr->size' to arbitrary value (say, 0xFFFFFFFF) after the first fetch but before the second fetch. The changed value will be copied to 'attr->size'. 5. There is no further checks on 'attr->size' until the end of this function, and once the function returns, we lose the context to verify that 'attr->size' conforms to the sanity checks performed in step 2 (line 9577 to 9584). 6. My manual analysis shows that 'attr->size' is not used elsewhere later, so, there is no working exploit against it right now. However, this could easily turns to an exploitable one if careless developers start to use 'attr->size' later. To fix this, override 'attr->size' from the second fetch to the one from the first fetch, regardless of what is actually copied in. In this way, it is assured that 'attr->size' is consistent with the checks performed after the first fetch.

In an XDP redirect applications using tracepoint xdp:xdp_redirect to diagnose TX overrun, I noticed perf_swevent_get_recursion_context() was consuming 2% CPU. This was reduced to 1.85% with this simple change. Looking at the annotated asm code, it was clear that the unlikely case in_nmi() test was chosen (by the compiler) as the most likely event/branch. This small adjustment makes the compiler (GCC version 7.1.1 20170622 (Red Hat 7.1.1-3)) put in_nmi() as an unlikely branch.

2017-08-25perf/aux: Ensure aux_wakeup represents most recent wakeup indexWill Deacon2-3/+3
The aux_watermark member of struct ring_buffer represents the period (in terms of bytes) at which wakeup events should be generated when data is written to the aux buffer in non-snapshot mode. On hardware that cannot generate an interrupt when the aux_head reaches an arbitrary wakeup index (such as ARM SPE), the aux_head sampled from handle->head in perf_aux_output_{skip,end} may in fact be past the wakeup index. This can lead to wakeup slowly falling behind the head. For example, consider the case where hardware can only generate an interrupt on a page-boundary and the aux buffer is initialised as follows: // Buffer size is 2 * PAGE_SIZE rb->aux_head = rb->aux_wakeup = 0 rb->aux_watermark = PAGE_SIZE / 2 following the first perf_aux_output_begin call, the handle is initialised with: handle->head = 0 handle->size = 2 * PAGE_SIZE handle->wakeup = PAGE_SIZE / 2 and the hardware will be programmed to generate an interrupt at PAGE_SIZE. When the interrupt is raised, the hardware head will be at PAGE_SIZE, so calling perf_aux_output_end(handle, PAGE_SIZE) puts the ring buffer into the following state: rb->aux_head = PAGE_SIZE rb->aux_wakeup = PAGE_SIZE / 2 rb->aux_watermark = PAGE_SIZE / 2 and then the next call to perf_aux_output_begin will result in: handle->head = handle->wakeup = PAGE_SIZE for which the semantics are unclear and, for a smaller aux_watermark (e.g. PAGE_SIZE / 4), then the wakeup would in fact be behind head at this point. This patch fixes the problem by rounding down the aux_head (as sampled from the handle) to the nearest aux_watermark boundary when updating rb->aux_wakeup, therefore taking into account any overruns by the hardware.

This patch changes the type of the members to long, so we can avoid using the local_*() API where it isn't needed.

2017-08-25perf/core: Fix group {cpu,task} validationMark Rutland1-20/+19
Regardless of which events form a group, it does not make sense for the events to target different tasks and/or CPUs, as this leaves the group inconsistent and impossible to schedule. The core perf code assumes that these are consistent across (successfully intialised) groups. Core perf code only verifies this when moving SW events into a HW context. Thus, we can violate this requirement for pure SW groups and pure HW groups, unless the relevant PMU driver happens to perform this verification itself. These mismatched groups subsequently wreak havoc elsewhere. For example, we handle watchpoints as SW events, and reserve watchpoint HW on a per-CPU basis at pmu::event_init() time to ensure that any event that is initialised is guaranteed to have a slot at pmu::add() time. However, the core code only checks the group leader's cpu filter (via event_filter_match()), and can thus install follower events onto CPUs violating thier (mismatched) CPU filters, potentially installing them into a CPU without sufficient reserved slots. This can be triggered with the below test case, resulting in warnings from arch backends. #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <linux/hw_breakpoint.h> #include <linux/perf_event.h> #include <sched.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/prctl.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <unistd.h> static int perf_event_open(struct perf_event_attr *attr, pid_t pid, int cpu, int group_fd, unsigned long flags) { return syscall(__NR_perf_event_open, attr, pid, cpu, group_fd, flags); } char watched_char; struct perf_event_attr wp_attr = { .type = PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT, .bp_type = HW_BREAKPOINT_RW, .bp_addr = (unsigned long)&watched_char, .bp_len = 1, .size = sizeof(wp_attr), }; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int leader, ret; cpu_set_t cpus; /* * Force use of CPU0 to ensure our CPU0-bound events get scheduled. */ CPU_ZERO(&cpus); CPU_SET(0, &cpus); ret = sched_setaffinity(0, sizeof(cpus), &cpus); if (ret) { printf("Unable to set cpu affinity\n"); return 1; } /* open leader event, bound to this task, CPU0 only */ leader = perf_event_open(&wp_attr, 0, 0, -1, 0); if (leader < 0) { printf("Couldn't open leader: %d\n", leader); return 1; } /* * Open a follower event that is bound to the same task, but a * different CPU. This means that the group should never be possible to * schedule. */ ret = perf_event_open(&wp_attr, 0, 1, leader, 0); if (ret < 0) { printf("Couldn't open mismatched follower: %d\n", ret); return 1; } else { printf("Opened leader/follower with mismastched CPUs\n"); } /* * Open as many independent events as we can, all bound to the same * task, CPU0 only. */ do { ret = perf_event_open(&wp_attr, 0, 0, -1, 0); } while (ret >= 0); /* * Force enable/disble all events to trigger the erronoeous * installation of the follower event. */ printf("Opened all events. Toggling..\n"); for (;;) { prctl(PR_TASK_PERF_EVENTS_DISABLE, 0, 0, 0, 0); prctl(PR_TASK_PERF_EVENTS_ENABLE, 0, 0, 0, 0); } return 0; } Fix this by validating this requirement regardless of whether we're moving events.
