The current event scheduler has a limit. If the counter constraint of an
event is not a subset of any other counter constraint with an equal or
higher weight. The counters may not be fully utilized.
To workaround it, the commit bc1738f6ee ("perf, x86: Fix event
scheduler for constraints with overlapping counters") introduced an
overlap flag, which is hardcoded to the event constraint that may
trigger the limit. It only works for static constraints.
Many features on and after Intel PMON v6 require dynamic constraints. An
event constraint is decided by both static and dynamic constraints at
runtime. See commit 4dfe3232cc ("perf/x86: Add dynamic constraint").
The dynamic constraints are from CPUID enumeration. It's impossible to
hardcode it in advance. It's not practical to set the overlap flag to all
events. It's harmful to the scheduler.
For the existing Intel platforms, the dynamic constraints don't trigger
the limit. A real fix is not required.
However, for virtualization, VMM may give a weird CPUID enumeration to a
guest. It's impossible to indicate what the weird enumeration is. A
check is introduced, which can list the possible breaks if a weird
enumeration is used.
Check the dynamic constraints enumerated for normal, branch counters
logging, and auto-counter reload.
Check both PEBS and non-PEBS constratins.

Different with legacy PEBS, arch-PEBS provides per-counter PEBS data
configuration by programing MSR IA32_PMC_GPx/FXx_CFG_C MSRs.
This patch obtains PEBS data configuration from event attribute and then
writes the PEBS data configuration to MSR IA32_PMC_GPx/FXx_CFG_C and
enable corresponding PEBS groups.
Please notice this patch only enables XMM SIMD regs sampling for
arch-PEBS, the other SIMD regs (OPMASK/YMM/ZMM) sampling on arch-PEBS
would be supported after PMI based SIMD regs (OPMASK/YMM/ZMM) sampling

When intel_pmu_drain_pebs_icl() is called to drain PEBS records, the
perf_event_overflow() could be called to process the last PEBS record.
While perf_event_overflow() could trigger the interrupt throttle and
stop all events of the group, like what the below call-chain shows.
perf_event_overflow()
-> __perf_event_overflow()
->__perf_event_account_interrupt()
-> perf_event_throttle_group()
-> perf_event_throttle()
-> event->pmu->stop()
-> x86_pmu_stop()
The side effect of stopping the events is that all corresponding event
pointers in cpuc->events[] array are cleared to NULL.
Assume there are two PEBS events (event a and event b) in a group. When
intel_pmu_drain_pebs_icl() calls perf_event_overflow() to process the
last PEBS record of PEBS event a, interrupt throttle is triggered and
all pointers of event a and event b are cleared to NULL. Then
intel_pmu_drain_pebs_icl() tries to process the last PEBS record of
event b and encounters NULL pointer access.
To avoid this issue, move cpuc->events[] clearing from x86_pmu_stop()
to x86_pmu_del(). It's safe since cpuc->active_mask or
cpuc->pebs_enabled is always checked before access the event pointer
from cpuc->events[].

Add support for deferred userspace unwind to perf.
Where perf currently relies on in-place stack unwinding; from NMI
context and all that. This moves the userspace part of the unwind to
right before the return-to-userspace.
This has two distinct benefits, the biggest is that it moves the
unwind to a faultable context. It becomes possible to fault in debug
info (.eh_frame, SFrame etc.) that might not otherwise be readily
available. And secondly, it de-duplicates the user callchain where
multiple samples happen during the same kernel entry.
To facilitate this the perf interface is extended with a new record
type:
PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED
and two new attribute flags:
perf_event_attr::defer_callchain - to request the user unwind be deferred
perf_event_attr::defer_output - to request PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED records
The existing PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE callchain section gets a new
context type:
PERF_CONTEXT_USER_DEFERRED
After which will come a single entry, denoting the 'cookie' of the
deferred callchain that should be attached here, matching the 'cookie'
field of the above mentioned PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED.
The 'defer_callchain' flag is expected on all events with
PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN. The 'defer_output' flag is expect on the event
responsible for collecting side-band events (like mmap, comm etc.).
Setting 'defer_output' on multiple events will get you duplicated
PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED records.

Both uprobes and alternatives have insn_is_nop() variants, unify them
and make sure insn_is_nop() works for both x86_64 and i386.
Specifically, uprobe must not compare userspace instructions to kernel
nops as that does not work right in the compat case.
For the uprobe case we therefore must recognise common 32bit and 64bit
nops. Because uprobe will consume the instruction as a nop, it must
not mistakenly claim a non-nop instruction to be a nop. Eg. 'REX.b3
NOP' is 'xchg %r8,%rax' - not a nop.
For the kernel case similar constraints apply, is it used to optimize
NOPs by replacing strings of short(er) nops with longer nops. Must not
claim an instruction is a nop if it really isn't. Not recognising a
nop is non-fatal.

The previous fix to trace_marker required updating trace_marker_raw
as well. The difference between trace_marker_raw from trace_marker
is that the raw version is for applications to write binary structures
directly into the ring buffer instead of writing ASCII strings.
This is for applications that will read the raw data from the ring
buffer and get the data structures directly. It's a bit quicker than
using the ASCII version.
Unfortunately, it appears that our test suite has several tests that
test writes to the trace_marker file, but lacks any tests to the
trace_marker_raw file (this needs to be remedied). Two issues came
about the update to the trace_marker_raw file that syzbot found:
- Fix tracing_mark_raw_write() to use per CPU buffer
The fix to use the per CPU buffer to copy from user space was needed for
both the trace_maker and trace_maker_raw file.
The fix for reading from user space into per CPU buffers properly fixed
the trace_marker write function, but the trace_marker_raw file wasn't
fixed properly. The user space data was correctly written into the per CPU
buffer, but the code that wrote into the ring buffer still used the user
space pointer and not the per CPU buffer that had the user space data
already written.
- Stop the fortify string warning from writing into trace_marker_raw
After converting the copy_from_user_nofault() into a memcpy(), another
issue appeared. As writes to the trace_marker_raw expects binary data, the
first entry is a 4 byte identifier. The entry structure is defined as:
struct {
struct trace_entry ent;
int id;
char buf[];
};
The size of this structure is reserved on the ring buffer with:
size = sizeof(*entry) + cnt;
Then it is copied from the buffer into the ring buffer with:
memcpy(&entry->id, buf, cnt);
This use to be a copy_from_user_nofault(), but now converting it to
a memcpy() triggers the fortify-string code, and causes a warning.
The allocated space is actually more than what is copied, as the cnt
used also includes the entry->id portion. Allocating sizeof(*entry)
plus cnt is actually allocating 4 bytes more than what is needed.
Change the size function to:
size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
And update the memcpy() to unsafe_memcpy().

ring buffer still used the user space pointer and not the per CPU
buffer that had the user space data already written.
- Stop the fortify string warning from writing into trace_marker_raw
After converting the copy_from_user_nofault() into a memcpy(),
another issue appeared. As writes to the trace_marker_raw expects
binary data, the first entry is a 4 byte identifier. The entry
structure is defined as:
struct {
struct trace_entry ent;
int id;
char buf[];
};
The size of this structure is reserved on the ring buffer with:
size = sizeof(*entry) + cnt;
Then it is copied from the buffer into the ring buffer with:
memcpy(&entry->id, buf, cnt);
This use to be a copy_from_user_nofault(), but now converting it to
a memcpy() triggers the fortify-string code, and causes a warning.
The allocated space is actually more than what is copied, as the
cnt used also includes the entry->id portion. Allocating
sizeof(*entry) plus cnt is actually allocating 4 bytes more than
what is needed.
Change the size function to:
size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
And update the memcpy() to unsafe_memcpy()"

Fixes only in drivers (ufs, mvsas, qla2xxx, target) that came in just
before or during the merge window. The most important one is the
qla2xxx which reverts a conversion to fix flexible array member
warnings, that went up in this merge window but which turned out on
further testing to be causing data corruption.
