perf: add perf-inject builtin

Currently, perf 'live mode' writes build-ids at the end of the

What would be better would be to have the build-ids sent before any of
the samples that reference them, which can be done by processing the
event stream and retrieving the build-ids on the first hit.  Doing
that in perf-record itself, however, is off-limits.

This patch introduces perf-inject, which does the same job while
leaving perf-record untouched.  Normal mode perf still records the
build-ids at the end of the session as it should, but for live mode,
perf-inject can be injected in between the record and report steps
e.g.:

perf record -o - ./hackbench 10 | perf inject -v -b | perf report -v -i -

perf-inject reads a perf-record event stream and repipes it to stdout.
At any point the processing code can inject other events into the
event stream - in this case build-ids (-b option) are read and
injected as needed into the event stream.

Build-ids are just the first user of perf-inject - potentially
anything that needs userspace processing to augment the trace stream
with additional information could make use of this facility.

The first is to separate breakpoint address pattern definition
space between data and instruction breakpoints. We then have
typically distinct instruction address breakpoint registers
and data address breakpoint registers, delivered with
separate control registers for data and instruction breakpoints
as well. This is the case of PowerPc and ARM for example.

The second consists in having merged breakpoint address space

registers can host either instruction or data address and
the access mode for the breakpoint is defined in a control
register. This is the case of x86 and Super H.

This patch adds a new CONFIG_HAVE_MIXED_BREAKPOINTS_REGS config
that archs can select if they belong to the second case. Those

- task bound breakpoints can only break on userspace addresses
- cpu wide breakpoints can only break on kernel addresses

The former rule prevents ptrace breakpoints to be set to trigger on
kernel addresses, which is good. But as a side effect, we can't
breakpoint on kernel addresses for task bound breakpoints.

The latter rule simply makes no sense, there is no reason why we
can't set breakpoints on userspace while performing cpu bound
profiles.

We want the following new policies:

- task bound breakpoint can set userspace address breakpoints, with
no particular privilege required.
- task bound breakpoints can set kernelspace address breakpoints but
must be privileged to do that.
- cpu bound breakpoints can do what they want as they are privileged
already.

To implement these new policies, this patch checks if we are dealing
with a kernel address breakpoint, if so and if the exclude_kernel
parameter is set, we tell the user that the breakpoint is invalid,
which makes a good generic ptrace protection.
If we don't have exclude_kernel, ensure the user has the right
privileges as kernel breakpoints are quite sensitive (risk of

14 years agoperf: Fix warning while reading ring buffer headers
Frederic Weisbecker [Sat, 1 May 2010 01:08:46 +0000 (03:08 +0200)]
perf: Fix warning while reading ring buffer headers

commit e9e94e3bd862d31777335722e747e97d9821bc1d
"perf trace: Ignore "overwrite" field if present in
/events/header_page" makes perf trace launching spurious warnings
about unexpected tokens read:

Warning: Error: expected type 6 but read 4

This change tries to handle the overcommit field in the header_page
file whenever this field is present or not.

The problem is that if this field is not present, we try to find it
and give up in the middle of the line when we realize we are actually
dealing with another field, which is the "data" one. And this failure
abandons the file pointer in the middle of the "data" description
line:

field: u64 timestamp; offset:0; size:8; signed:0;
field: local_t commit; offset:8; size:8; signed:1;
field: char data; offset:16; size:4080; signed:1;
                      ^^^
                      Here

What happens next is that we want to read this line to parse the data
field, but we fail because the pointer is not in the beginning of the
line.

We could probably fix that by rewinding the pointer. But in fact we
don't care much about these headers that only concern the ftrace
ring-buffer. We don't use them from perf.

Just skip this part of perf.data, but don't remove it from recording
to stay compatible with olders perf.data

If we run it in verbose mode, we'll see details about errors and extra warnings

the address space when reading the symbol information from the ELF symtab in
vmlinux.

The /proc/kallsyms file lack this, we only notice they are separate because
there are modules after the kernel and after that more kernel functions, so we
need to have a module rbtree backed by the module .ko path to get symtabs in
the vmlinux case.

The tool uses it to match by address to emit appropriate warning, but don't
considers this fatal.

The .init.text and .exit.text ines, of course, aren't in kallsyms, so I left
these cases just as extra info in verbose mode.

The end of the sections also aren't in kallsyms, so we the symbols layer does
another pass and sets the end addresses as the next map start minus one, which
sometimes pads, causing harmless mismatches.

But at least the symbols match, tested it by copying /proc/kallsyms to
/tmp/kallsyms and doing changes to see if they were detected.

This first test also should serve as a first stab at documenting the
symbol library by providing a self contained example that exercises it
together with comments about what is being done.

More tests to check if actions done on a monitored app, like doing mmaps, etc,
makes the kernel generate the expected events should be added next.

14 years agox86/PCI: compute Address Space length rather than using _LEN
Bjorn Helgaas [Tue, 27 Apr 2010 20:45:43 +0000 (14:45 -0600)]
x86/PCI: compute Address Space length rather than using _LEN

ACPI _CRS Address Space Descriptors have _MIN, _MAX, and _LEN.  Linux has
been computing Address Spaces as [_MIN to _MIN + _LEN - 1].  Based on the
tests in the bug reports below, Windows apparently uses [_MIN to _MAX].

Per spec (ACPI 4.0, Table 6-40), for _CRS fixed-size, fixed location
descriptors, "_LEN must be (_MAX - _MIN + 1)", and when that's true, it
doesn't matter which way we compute the end.  But of course, there are
BIOSes that don't follow this rule, and we're better off if Linux handles
those exceptions the same way as Windows.

This patch makes Linux use [_MIN to _MAX], as Windows seems to do.  This

14 years agonet/usb: add sierra_net.c driver
Elina Pasheva [Wed, 28 Apr 2010 01:06:41 +0000 (18:06 -0700)]
net/usb: add sierra_net.c driver

Re-submitted based on comments from netdev community.
Summary of the changes:
1. Improved error handling.
2. Added the missing timeout arguments to usb_control_msg().

The following is a new Linux driver which exposes certain models of Sierra
Wireless modems to the operating system as Network Interface Cards (NICs).

This driver requires a version of the sierra.c driver which supports
blacklisting to work properly. The blacklist in sierra.c rejects the interfaces
claimed by sierra_net.c. Likewise, the sierra_net.c driver only accepts
(i.e. whitelists) the interface(s) used for USB-to-WWAN traffic.
The version of sierra.c which supports blacklisting is
available from the sierra wireless knowledge base page for older kernels. It is
also available in Linux kernel starting from version 2.6.31.

This driver works with all Sierra Wireless devices configured with PID=68A3
like USB305, USB306 provided the corresponding firmware version is I2.0
(for USB305) or M3.0 (for USB306) and later.
This driver will not work with earlier firmware versions than the ones shown
above. In this case the driver will issue an error message indicating
incompatibility and will not serve the device's USB-to-WWAN interface.

Sierra_net.c sits atop a pre-existing Linux driver called usbnet.c.
A series of hook functions are provided in sierra_net.c which are called by
usbnet.c in response to a particular condition such as receipt or transmission
of a data packet. As such, usbnet.c does most of the work of making
a modem appear to the system as a network device and for properly exchanging
traffic between the USB subsystem and the Network card interface.
Sierra_net.c is concerned with managing the data exchanged between the
USB-to-WWAN interface and the upper layers of the operating system.

keys: the request_key() syscall should link an existing key to the dest keyring

The request_key() system call and request_key_and_link() should make a
link from an existing key to the destination keyring (if supplied), not
just from a new key to the destination keyring.

This can be tested by:

ring=`keyctl newring fred @s`
keyctl request2 user debug:a a
keyctl request user debug:a $ring
keyctl list $ring

If it says:

keyring is empty

then it didn't work.  If it shows something like:

1 key in keyring:
1070462727: --alswrv     0     0 user: debug:a

then it did.

request_key() system call is meant to recursively search all your keyrings for
the key you desire, and, optionally, if it doesn't exist, call out to userspace
to create one for you.

If request_key() finds or creates a key, it should, optionally, create a link
to that key from the destination keyring specified.

Therefore, if, after a successful call to request_key() with a desination
keyring specified, you see the destination keyring empty, the code didn't work
correctly.

If you see the found key in the keyring, then it did - which is what the patch
is required for.

     https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=599628
the problem appears to be due to nfs_wb_page() not waiting for the
PG_writeback flag to clear.

There is a ditto problem in nfs_wb_page_cancel()

bnx2: Prevent "scheduling while atomic" warning with cnic, bonding and vlan.

The bonding driver calls ndo_vlan_rx_register() while holding bond->lock.
The bnx2 driver calls bnx2_netif_stop() to stop the rx handling while
changing the vlgrp.  The call also stops the cnic driver which sleeps
while the bond->lock is held and cause the warning.

This code path only needs to stop the NAPI rx handling while we are
changing the vlgrp.  Since no reset is going to occur, there is no need
to stop cnic in this case.  By adding a parameter to bnx2_netif_stop()
to skip stopping cnic, we can avoid the warning.

It has been reported that under certain heavy traffic conditions in MSI-X
mode, the driver can lose an MSI-X vector causing all packets in the
associated rx/tx ring pair to be dropped.  The problem is caused by
the chip dropping the write to unmask the MSI-X vector by the kernel
(when migrating the IRQ for example).

This can be prevented by increasing the GRC timeout value for these

further digging into errata documentation reveals the current enabling or
disabling of ASPM L0s and L1 states for certain parts supported by this

standard frames, 82573/82574/82583 can enable L1 but L0s must be disabled,
and for jumbo frames 82573/82574 must disable L1.  This allows for some
parts to enable L1 in certain configurations leading to better power
savings.

Also according to the same errata, Early Receive (ERT) should be disabled
