This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled perf/x86: Fix event scheduling to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.8.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.8.13.20. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.8.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From 38b258f673da2da358069c6b036115f250b38eb0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Date: Fri, 21 Feb 2014 16:03:12 +0100 Subject: perf/x86: Fix event scheduling commit 26e61e8939b1fe8729572dabe9a9e97d930dd4f6 upstream. Vince "Super Tester" Weaver reported a new round of syscall fuzzing (Trinity) failures, with perf WARN_ON()s triggering. He also provided traces of the failures. This is I think the relevant bit: > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926153: x86_pmu_disable: x86_pmu_disable > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926153: x86_pmu_state: Events: { > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926156: x86_pmu_state: 0: state: .R config: ffffffffffffffff ( (null)) > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926158: x86_pmu_state: 33: state: AR config: 0 (ffff88011ac99800) > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926159: x86_pmu_state: } > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926160: x86_pmu_state: n_events: 1, n_added: 0, n_txn: 1 > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926161: x86_pmu_state: Assignment: { > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926162: x86_pmu_state: 0->33 tag: 1 config: 0 (ffff88011ac99800) > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926163: x86_pmu_state: } > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926166: collect_events: Adding event: 1 (ffff880119ec8800) So we add the insn:p event (fd[23]). At this point we should have: n_events = 2, n_added = 1, n_txn = 1 > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926170: collect_events: Adding event: 0 (ffff8800c9e01800) > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926172: collect_events: Adding event: 4 (ffff8800cbab2c00) We try and add the {BP,cycles,br_insn} group (fd[3], fd[4], fd[15]). These events are 0:cycles and 4:br_insn, the BP event isn't x86_pmu so that's not visible. group_sched_in() pmu->start_txn() /* nop - BP pmu */ event_sched_in() event->pmu->add() So here we should end up with: 0: n_events = 3, n_added = 2, n_txn = 2 4: n_events = 4, n_added = 3, n_txn = 3 But seeing the below state on x86_pmu_enable(), the must have failed, because the 0 and 4 events aren't there anymore. Looking at group_sched_in(), since the BP is the leader, its event_sched_in() must have succeeded, for otherwise we would not have seen the sibling adds. But since neither 0 or 4 are in the below state; their event_sched_in() must have failed; but I don't see why, the complete state: 0,0,1:p,4 fits perfectly fine on a core2. However, since we try and schedule 4 it means the 0 event must have succeeded! Therefore the 4 event must have failed, its failure will have put group_sched_in() into the fail path, which will call: event_sched_out() event->pmu->del() on 0 and the BP event. Now x86_pmu_del() will reduce n_events; but it will not reduce n_added; giving what we see below: n_event = 2, n_added = 2, n_txn = 2 > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926177: x86_pmu_enable: x86_pmu_enable > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926177: x86_pmu_state: Events: { > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926179: x86_pmu_state: 0: state: .R config: ffffffffffffffff ( (null)) > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926181: x86_pmu_state: 33: state: AR config: 0 (ffff88011ac99800) > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926182: x86_pmu_state: } > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926184: x86_pmu_state: n_events: 2, n_added: 2, n_txn: 2 > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926184: x86_pmu_state: Assignment: { > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926186: x86_pmu_state: 0->33 tag: 1 config: 0 (ffff88011ac99800) > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926188: x86_pmu_state: 1->0 tag: 1 config: 1 (ffff880119ec8800) > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926188: x86_pmu_state: } > pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926190: x86_pmu_enable: S0: hwc->idx: 33, hwc->last_cpu: 0, hwc->last_tag: 1 hwc->state: 0 So the problem is that x86_pmu_del(), when called from a group_sched_in() that fails (for whatever reason), and without x86_pmu TXN support (because the leader is !x86_pmu), will corrupt the n_added state.
