perf/core: Fix cgroup event list management
The active cgroup events are managed in the per-cpu cgrp_cpuctx_list. This list is accessed from current cpu and not protected by any locks. But from the commit ef54c1a ("perf: Rework perf_event_exit_event()"), this assumption does not hold true anymore. In the perf_remove_from_context(), it can remove an event from the context without an IPI when the context is not active. I think it assumes task event context, but it's possible for cpu event context only with cgroup events can be inactive at the moment - and it might become active soon. If the event is enabled when it's about to be closed, it might call perf_cgroup_event_disable() and list_del() with the cgrp_cpuctx_list on a different cpu. This resulted in a crash due to an invalid list pointer access during the cgroup list traversal on the cpu which the event belongs to. The following program can crash my box easily.. #include <stdio.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <linux/perf_event.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> //#define CGROUP_ROOT "/dev/cgroup/devices" #define CGROUP_ROOT "/sys/fs/cgroup" int perf_event_open(struct perf_event_attr *attr, int pid, int cpu, int grp, unsigned long flags) { return syscall(SYS_perf_event_open, attr, pid, cpu, grp, flags); } int get_cgroup_fd(const char *grp) { char buf[128]; snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "%s/%s", CGROUP_ROOT, grp); /* ignore failures */ mkdir(buf, 0755); return open(buf, O_RDONLY); } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { struct perf_event_attr hw = { .type = PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE, .config = PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES, }; struct perf_event_attr sw = { .type = PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE, .config = PERF_COUNT_SW_CPU_CLOCK, }; int cpus = sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN); int fd[4][cpus]; int cgrpA, cgrpB; cgrpA = get_cgroup_fd("A"); cgrpB = get_cgroup_fd("B"); if (cgrpA < 0 || cgrpB < 0) { printf("failed to get cgroup fd\n"); return 1; } while (1) { int i; for (i = 0; i < cpus; i++) { fd[0][i] = perf_event_open(&hw, cgrpA, i, -1, PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP); fd[1][i] = perf_event_open(&sw, cgrpA, i, -1, PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP); fd[2][i] = perf_event_open(&hw, cgrpB, i, -1, PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP); fd[3][i] = perf_event_open(&sw, cgrpB, i, -1, PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP); } for (i = 0; i < cpus; i++) { close(fd[3][i]); close(fd[2][i]); close(fd[1][i]); close(fd[0][i]); } } return 0; } Let's use IPI to prevent such crashes. Similarly, I think perf_install_in_context() should use IPI for the first cgroup event at least. Cc: Marco Elver <elver@google.com> Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>

KVM: x86: More precisely identify NMI from guest when handling PMI
Differentiate between IRQ and NMI for KVM's PMC overflow callback, which was originally invoked in response to an NMI that arrived while the guest was running, but was inadvertantly changed to fire on IRQs as well when support for perf without PMU/NMI was added to KVM. In practice, this should be a nop as the PMC overflow callback shouldn't be reached, but it's a cheap and easy fix that also better documents the situation. Note, this also doesn't completely prevent false positives if perf somehow ends up calling into KVM, e.g. an NMI can arrive in host after KVM sets its flag.

…able Use the generic kvm_running_vcpu plus a new 'handling_intr_from_guest' variable in kvm_arch_vcpu instead of the semi-redundant current_vcpu. kvm_before/after_interrupt() must be called while the vCPU is loaded, (which protects against preemption), thus kvm_running_vcpu is guaranteed to be non-NULL when handling_intr_from_guest is non-zero. Switching to kvm_get_running_vcpu() will allows moving KVM's perf callbacks to generic code, and the new flag will be used in a future patch to more precisely identify the "NMI from guest" case.

perf/core: Use static_call to optimize perf_guest_info_callbacks
Use static_call to optimize perf's guest callbacks on arm64 and x86, which are now the only architectures that define the callbacks. Use DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0 as the default/NULL for all guest callbacks, as the callback semantics are that a return value '0' means "not in guest". static_call obviously avoids the overhead of CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y, but is also advantageous versus other solutions, e.g. per-cpu callbacks, in that a per-cpu memory load is not needed to detect the !guest case.

perf: Force architectures to opt-in to guest callbacks
Introduce GUEST_PERF_EVENTS and require architectures to select it to allow registering and using guest callbacks in perf. This will hopefully make it more difficult for new architectures to add useless "support" for guest callbacks, e.g. via copy+paste.

perf: Add wrappers for invoking guest callbacks
Add helpers for the guest callbacks to prepare for burying the callbacks behind a Kconfig (it's a lot easier to provide a few stubs than to #ifdef piles of code), and also to prepare for converting the callbacks to static_call(). perf_instruction_pointer() in particular will have subtle semantics with static_call(), as the "no callbacks" case will return 0 if the callbacks are unregistered between querying guest state and getting the IP. Implement the change now to avoid a functional change when adding static_call() support, and because the new helper needs to return _something_ in this case.

To prepare for using static_calls to optimize perf's guest callbacks, replace ->is_in_guest and ->is_user_mode with a new multiplexed hook ->state, tweak ->handle_intel_pt_intr to play nice with being called when there is no active guest, and drop "guest" from ->get_guest_ip. Return '0' from ->state and ->handle_intel_pt_intr to indicate "not in guest" so that DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0 can be used to define the static calls, i.e. no callback == !guest.

perf: Stop pretending that perf can handle multiple guest callbacks
Drop the 'int' return value from the perf (un)register callbacks helpers and stop pretending perf can support multiple callbacks. The 'int' returns are not future proofing anything as none of the callers take action on an error. It's also not obvious that there will ever be co-tenant hypervisors, and if there are, that allowing multiple callbacks to be registered is desirable or even correct.

perf: Protect perf_guest_cbs with RCU
Protect perf_guest_cbs with RCU to fix multiple possible errors. Luckily, all paths that read perf_guest_cbs already require RCU protection, e.g. to protect the callback chains, so only the direct perf_guest_cbs touchpoints need to be modified. Bug #1 is a simple lack of WRITE_ONCE/READ_ONCE behavior to ensure perf_guest_cbs isn't reloaded between a !NULL check and a dereference. Fixed via the READ_ONCE() in rcu_dereference(). Bug #2 is that on weakly-ordered architectures, updates to the callbacks themselves are not guaranteed to be visible before the pointer is made visible to readers. Fixed by the smp_store_release() in rcu_assign_pointer() when the new pointer is non-NULL. Bug #3 is that, because the callbacks are global, it's possible for readers to run in parallel with an unregisters, and thus a module implementing the callbacks can be unloaded while readers are in flight, resulting in a use-after-free. Fixed by a synchronize_rcu() call when unregistering callbacks. Bug #1 escaped notice because it's extremely unlikely a compiler will reload perf_guest_cbs in this sequence. perf_guest_cbs does get reloaded for future derefs, e.g. for ->is_user_mode(), but the ->is_in_guest() guard all but guarantees the consumer will win the race, e.g. to nullify perf_guest_cbs, KVM has to completely exit the guest and teardown down all VMs before KVM start its module unload / unregister sequence. This also makes it all but impossible to encounter bug #3. Bug #2 has not been a problem because all architectures that register callbacks are strongly ordered and/or have a static set of callbacks. But with help, unloading kvm_intel can trigger bug #1 e.g. wrapping perf_guest_cbs with READ_ONCE in perf_misc_flags() while spamming kvm_intel module load/unload leads to: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP CPU: 6 PID: 1825 Comm: stress Not tainted 5.14.0-rc2+ torvalds#459 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 0.0.0 02/06/2015 RIP: 0010:perf_misc_flags+0x1c/0x70 Call Trace: perf_prepare_sample+0x53/0x6b0 perf_event_output_forward+0x67/0x160 __perf_event_overflow+0x52/0xf0 handle_pmi_common+0x207/0x300 intel_pmu_handle_irq+0xcf/0x410 perf_event_nmi_handler+0x28/0x50 nmi_handle+0xc7/0x260 default_do_nmi+0x6b/0x170 exc_nmi+0x103/0x130 asm_exc_nmi+0x76/0xbf Fixes: 39447b3 ("perf: Enhance perf to allow for guest statistic collection from host") Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211111020738.2512932-2-seanjc@google.com

kconfig: Add support for -Wimplicit-fallthrough
Add Kconfig support for -Wimplicit-fallthrough for both GCC and Clang. The compiler option is under configuration CC_IMPLICIT_FALLTHROUGH, which is enabled by default. Special thanks to Nathan Chancellor who fixed the Clang bug[1][2]. This bugfix only appears in Clang 14.0.0, so older versions still contain the bug and -Wimplicit-fallthrough won't be enabled for them, for now. This concludes a long journey and now we are finally getting rid of the unintentional fallthrough bug-class in the kernel, entirely. :) Link: llvm/llvm-project@9ed4a94 [1] Link: https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51094 [2] Link: KSPP#115 Link: ClangBuiltLinux#236 Co-developed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Co-developed-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Gustavo A.

Pull zstd update from Nick Terrell: "Update to zstd-1.4.10. Add myself as the maintainer of zstd and update the zstd version in the kernel, which is now 4 years out of date, to a much more recent zstd release. This includes bug fixes, much more extensive fuzzing, and performance improvements. And generates the kernel zstd automatically from upstream zstd, so it is easier to keep the zstd verison up to date, and we don't fall so far out of date again. This includes 5 commits that update the zstd library version: - Adds a new kernel-style wrapper around zstd. This wrapper API is functionally equivalent to the subset of the current zstd API that is currently used. The wrapper API changes to be kernel style so that the symbols don't collide with zstd's symbols. The update to zstd-1.4.10 maintains the same API and preserves the semantics, so that none of the callers need to be updated. All callers are updated in the commit, because there are zero functional changes. - Adds an indirection for `lib/decompress_unzstd.c` so it doesn't depend on the layout of `lib/zstd/` to include every source file. This allows the next patch to be automatically generated. - Imports the zstd-1.4.10 source code. This commit is automatically generated from upstream zstd (https://github.com/facebook/zstd). - Adds me (terrelln@fb.com) as the maintainer of `lib/zstd`. - Fixes a newly added build warning for clang. The discussion around this patchset has been pretty long, so I've included a FAQ-style summary of the history of the patchset, and why we are taking this approach. Why do we need to update? ------------------------- The zstd version in the kernel is based off of zstd-1.3.1, which is was released August 20, 2017. Since then zstd has seen many bug fixes and performance improvements. And, importantly, upstream zstd is continuously fuzzed by OSS-Fuzz, and bug fixes aren't backported to older versions. So the only way to sanely get these fixes is to keep up to date with upstream zstd. There are no known security issues that affect the kernel, but we need to be able to update in case there are. And while there are no known security issues, there are relevant bug fixes. For example the problem with large kernel decompression has been fixed upstream for over 2 years [1] Additionally the performance improvements for kernel use cases are significant. Measured for x86_64 on my Intel i9-9900k @ 3.6 GHz: - BtrFS zstd compression at levels 1 and 3 is 5% faster - BtrFS zstd decompression+read is 15% faster - SquashFS zstd decompression+read is 15% faster - F2FS zstd compression+write at level 3 is 8% faster - F2FS zstd decompression+read is 20% faster - ZRAM decompression+read is 30% faster - Kernel zstd decompression is 35% faster - Initramfs zstd decompression+build is 5% faster On top of this, there are significant performance improvements coming down the line in the next zstd release, and the new automated update patch generation will allow us to pull them easily. How is the update patch generated? ---------------------------------- The first two patches are preparation for updating the zstd version. Then the 3rd patch in the series imports upstream zstd into the kernel. This patch is automatically generated from upstream. A script makes the necessary changes and imports it into the kernel. The changes are: - Replace all libc dependencies with kernel replacements and rewrite includes. - Remove unncessary portability macros like: #if defined(_MSC_VER). - Use the kernel xxhash instead of bundling it. This automation gets tested every commit by upstream's continuous integration. When we cut a new zstd release, we will submit a patch to the kernel to update the zstd version in the kernel. The automated process makes it easy to keep the kernel version of zstd up to date. The current zstd in the kernel shares the guts of the code, but has a lot of API and minor changes to work in the kernel. This is because at the time upstream zstd was not ready to be used in the kernel envrionment as-is. But, since then upstream zstd has evolved to support being used in the kernel as-is. Why are we updating in one big patch? ------------------------------------- The 3rd patch in the series is very large. This is because it is restructuring the code, so it both deletes the existing zstd, and re-adds the new structure. Future updates will be directly proportional to the changes in upstream zstd since the last import. They will admittidly be large, as zstd is an actively developed project, and has hundreds of commits between every release. However, there is no other great alternative. One option ruled out is to replay every upstream zstd commit. This is not feasible for several reasons: - There are over 3500 upstream commits since the zstd version in the kernel. - The automation to automatically generate the kernel update was only added recently, so older commits cannot easily be imported. - Not every upstream zstd commit builds. - Only zstd releases are "supported", and individual commits may have bugs that were fixed before a release. Another option to reduce the patch size would be to first reorganize to the new file structure, and then apply the patch. However, the current kernel zstd is formatted with clang-format to be more "kernel-like". But, the new method imports zstd as-is, without additional formatting, to allow for closer correlation with upstream, and easier debugging. So the patch wouldn't be any smaller. It also doesn't make sense to import upstream zstd commit by commit going forward. Upstream zstd doesn't support production use cases running of the development branch. We have a lot of post-commit fuzzing that catches many bugs, so indiviudal commits may be buggy, but fixed before a release. So going forward, I intend to import every (important) zstd release into the Kernel. So, while it isn't ideal, updating in one big patch is the only patch I see forward. Who is responsible for this code? --------------------------------- I am. This patchset adds me as the maintainer for zstd. Previously, there was no tree for zstd patches. Because of that, there were several patches that either got ignored, or took a long time to merge, since it wasn't clear which tree should pick them up. I'm officially stepping up as maintainer, and setting up my tree as the path through which zstd patches get merged. I'll make sure that patches to the kernel zstd get ported upstream, so they aren't erased when the next version update happens. How is this code tested? ------------------------ I tested every caller of zstd on x86_64 (BtrFS, ZRAM, SquashFS, F2FS, Kernel, InitRAMFS). I also tested Kernel & InitRAMFS on i386 and aarch64. I checked both performance and correctness. Also, thanks to many people in the community who have tested these patches locally. Lastly, this code will bake in linux-next before being merged into v5.16. Why update to zstd-1.4.10 when zstd-1.5.0 has been released? ------------------------------------------------------------ This patchset has been outstanding since 2020, and zstd-1.4.10 was the latest release when it was created. Since the update patch is automatically generated from upstream, I could generate it from zstd-1.5.0. However, there were some large stack usage regressions in zstd-1.5.0, and are only fixed in the latest development branch. And the latest development branch contains some new code that needs to bake in the fuzzer before I would feel comfortable releasing to the kernel. Once this patchset has been merged, and we've released zstd-1.5.1, we can update the kernel to zstd-1.5.1, and exercise the update process. You may notice that zstd-1.4.10 doesn't exist upstream. This release is an artifical release based off of zstd-1.4.9, with some fixes for the kernel backported from the development branch. I will tag the zstd-1.4.10 release after this patchset is merged, so the Linux Kernel is running a known version of zstd that can be debugged upstream. Why was a wrapper API added? ---------------------------- The first versions of this patchset migrated the kernel to the upstream zstd API. It first added a shim API that supported the new upstream API with the old code, then updated callers to use the new shim API, then transitioned to the new code and deleted the shim API. However, Cristoph Hellwig suggested that we transition to a kernel style API, and hide zstd's upstream API behind that. This is because zstd's upstream API is supports many other use cases, and does not follow the kernel style guide, while the kernel API is focused on the kernel's use cases, and follows the kernel style guide. Where is the previous discussion? --------------------------------- Links for the discussions of the previous versions of the patch set below. The largest changes in the design of the patchset are driven by the discussions in v11, v5, and v1.
