| * perf jit: genelf makes assumptions about endianAnton Blanchard2016-03-301-14/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 9b07e27f88b9 ("perf inject: Add jitdump mmap injection support") incorrectly assumed that PowerPC is big endian only. Simplify things by consolidating the define of GEN_ELF_ENDIAN and checking for __BYTE_ORDER == __BIG_ENDIAN. The PowerPC checks were also incorrect, they do not match what gcc emits. We should first look for __powerpc64__, then __powerpc__.

| * perf hists: Fix determination of a callchain node's childlessnessAndres Freund2016-03-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 4b3a3212233a ("perf hists browser: Support flat callchains") commit over-aggressively tried to optimize callchain_node__init_have_children(). That lead to --tui mode not allowing to expand call chain elements if a call chain element had only one parent. That's why --inverted callgraphs looked halfway sane, but plain ones didn't. Revert that individual optimization, it wasn't really related to the rest of the commit.

| * perf tools: Add missing initialization of perf_sample.cpumode in synthesized ↵Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2016-03-294-7/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | samples In 473398a21d28 ("perf tools: Add cpumode to struct perf_sample"), I missed some places where perf_sample fields are directly initialized in addition to what is done in perf_evsel__parse_sample(), namely when synthesizing PERF_RECORD_{MMAP*,COMM,FORK,EXIT} for pre-existing threads and also in intel_pt and intel_bts when synthesizing events from processor trace, the jitdump code also was affected, fix it. The problem was noticed with running: # perf record -e intel_pt//u true # perf script Where the samples wouldn't get resolved because perf_sample.cpumode would be left as zero, i.e. PERF_RECORD_MISC_CPUMODE_UNKNOWN, not resolving as kernel, hypervisor or user cpu modes.

Run: 'make -C tools/perf build-test' 2. One of its tests failed, in this case, the 'tarpkg' one 3. Look at what went wrong, by looking at the output of that test, in tools/perf/tarpkg Admittedly, this should be shortcircuited to showing what went wrong directly from the 'make build-test' step, but lets first fix this tarpkg one and the problem it spotted, which should be fixed by adding some extra file to the tools/perf/MANIFEST so that detached tarballs continue being self contained and build successfully.

The result is that run_tests.sh is not done properly. How to reproduce: $ cd $BUILD_DIR $ LC_ALL=C make -C tools/ liblockdep $ cd tools/lib/lockdep/ $ LC_ALL=C ./run_tests.sh basename: invalid option -- 's' Try `basename --help' for more information. ... timeout: failed to run command `./tests/': Permission denied FAILED! rm: cannot remove `tests/': Is a directory Due to unsupported basename the tests programs are not generated and cannot be removed. Fix this by doing a compatible basename invocation and check for the existence of generated tests programs.

The first function prints the comm, pid and CPU, the second prints the timestamp. But that commit added the printing of the CPU in the timestamp function, which now causes pevent_print_event() to duplicate the CPU output. Remove the redundant printing of the record's CPU from the timestamp function.

It was written by and is maintained by Josh Poimboeuf. The motivation: there's a category of hard to find kernel bugs, most of them in assembly code (but also occasionally in C code), that degrades the quality of kernel stack dumps/backtraces. These bugs are hard to detect at the source code level. Such bugs result in incorrect/incomplete backtraces most of time - but can also in some rare cases result in crashes or other undefined behavior. The build time correctness checking is done via the new 'objtool' user-space utility that was written for this purpose and which is hosted in the kernel repository in tools/objtool/. The tool's (very simple) UI and source code design is shaped after Git and perf and shares quite a bit of infrastructure with tools/perf (which tooling infrastructure sharing effort got merged via perf and is already upstream). Objtool follows the well-known kernel coding style. Objtool does not try to check .c or .S files, it instead analyzes the resulting .o generated machine code from first principles: it decodes the instruction stream and interprets it. (Right now objtool supports the x86-64 architecture.) From tools/objtool/Documentation/stack-validation.txt: "The kernel CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION option enables a host tool named objtool which runs at compile time. It has a "check" subcommand which analyzes every .o file and ensures the validity of its stack metadata. It enforces a set of rules on asm code and C inline assembly code so that stack traces can be reliable. Currently it only checks frame pointer usage, but there are plans to add CFI validation for C files and CFI generation for asm files. For each function, it recursively follows all possible code paths and validates the correct frame pointer state at each instruction. It also follows code paths involving special sections, like .altinstructions, __jump_table, and __ex_table, which can add alternative execution paths to a given instruction (or set of instructions). Similarly, it knows how to follow switch statements, for which gcc sometimes uses jump tables." When this new kernel option is enabled (it's disabled by default), the tool, if it finds any suspicious assembly code pattern, outputs warnings in compiler warning format: warning: objtool: rtlwifi_rate_mapping()+0x2e7: frame pointer state mismatch warning: objtool: cik_tiling_mode_table_init()+0x6ce: call without frame pointer save/setup warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3c0: duplicate frame pointer save warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3fd: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer ... so that scripts that pick up compiler warnings will notice them. All known warnings triggered by the tool are fixed by the tree, most of the commits in fact prepare the kernel to be warning-free. Most of them are bugfixes or cleanups that stand on their own, but there are also some annotations of 'special' stack frames for justified cases such entries to JIT-ed code (BPF) or really special boot time code. There are two other long-term motivations behind this tool as well: - To improve the quality and reliability of kernel stack frames, so that they can be used for optimized live patching. - To create independent infrastructure to check the correctness of CFI stack frames at build time. CFI debuginfo is notoriously unreliable and we cannot use it in the kernel as-is without extra checking done both on the kernel side and on the build side. The quality of kernel stack frames matters to debuggability as well, so IMO we can merge this without having to consider the live patching or CFI debuginfo angle" * 'core-objtool-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (52 commits) objtool: Only print one warning per function objtool: Add several performance improvements tools: Copy hashtable.h into tools directory objtool: Fix false positive warnings for functions with multiple switch statements objtool: Rename some variables and functions objtool: Remove superflous INIT_LIST_HEAD objtool: Add helper macros for traversing instructions objtool: Fix false positive warnings related to sibling calls objtool: Compile with debugging symbols objtool: Detect infinite recursion objtool: Prevent infinite recursion in noreturn detection objtool: Detect and warn if libelf is missing and don't break the build tools: Support relative directory path for 'O=' objtool: Support CROSS_COMPILE x86/asm/decoder: Use explicitly signed chars objtool: Enable stack metadata validation on 64-bit x86 objtool: Add CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION option objtool: Add tool to perform compile-time stack metadata validation x86/kprobes: Mark kretprobe_trampoline() stack frame as non-standard sched: Always inline context_switch() ...

| * | | objtool: Fix false positive warnings for functions with multiple switch ↵Josh Poimboeuf2016-03-091-45/+100

And so did the 0-day bot [2]: drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/cik.o: warning: objtool: cik_tiling_mode_table_init()+0x6ce: call without frame pointer save/setup drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/cik.o: warning: objtool: cik_tiling_mode_table_init()+0x72b: call without frame pointer save/setup ... Both sets of warnings involve functions which have multiple switch statements. When there's more than one switch statement in a function, objtool interprets all the switch jump tables as a single table. If the targets of one jump table assume a stack frame and the targets of another one don't, it prints false positive warnings. Fix the bug by detecting the size of each switch jump table. For multiple tables, each one ends where the next one begins.

With the given config, two functions in crypto/ablkcipher.o contained sibling calls to each other, which threw the recursive call in dead_end_function() for a loop (literally!). Split the noreturn detection into two passes. In the first pass, check for return instructions. In the second pass, do the potentially recursive sibling call check. In most cases, the first pass will be good enough. In the rare case where a second pass is needed, recursion should hopefully no longer be possible.

It fails to build because it tries to compile objtool with the cross-compiler instead of the host compiler. Ensure that it always uses the host compiler by ignoring CROSS_COMPILE. In order to do that properly, the libsubcmd.a library needs to be built in tools/objtool/ rather than tools/lib/subcmd/. The latter directory contains the cross-compiled version which is needed for perf and possibly other tools. Note that cross-compiling for x86 on a _big_ endian system would result in a bunch of false positive objtool warnings during the kernel build because it isn't endian-aware. But that's generally a rare edge case and there haven't been any reports of anybody needing that.

When converting char to int, gcc sign-extends on x86 but doesn't sign-extend on ppc64le. According to the gcc man page, that's a feature, not a bug: > Each kind of machine has a default for what "char" should be. It is > either like "unsigned char" by default or like "signed char" by > default. > > Ideally, a portable program should always use "signed char" or > "unsigned char" when it depends on the signedness of an object. Conform to the "standards" by changing the "char" casts to "signed char". This results in no actual changes to the object code on x86. Note: the x86 decoder now lives in three different locations in the kernel tree, which are all kept in sync via makefile checks and warnings: in-kernel, perf, and objtool. This fixes all three locations. Eventually we should probably try to at least converge the two separate "tools" locations into a single shared location.

It enforces a set of rules on asm code and C inline assembly code so that stack traces can be reliable. For each function, it recursively follows all possible code paths and validates the correct frame pointer state at each instruction. It also follows code paths involving kernel special sections, like .altinstructions, __jump_table, and __ex_table, which can add alternative execution paths to a given instruction (or set of instructions). Similarly, it knows how to follow switch statements, for which gcc sometimes uses jump tables. Here are some of the benefits of validating stack metadata: a) More reliable stack traces for frame pointer enabled kernels Frame pointers are used for debugging purposes. They allow runtime code and debug tools to be able to walk the stack to determine the chain of function call sites that led to the currently executing code. For some architectures, frame pointers are enabled by CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER. For some other architectures they may be required by the ABI (sometimes referred to as "backchain pointers"). For C code, gcc automatically generates instructions for setting up frame pointers when the -fno-omit-frame-pointer option is used. But for asm code, the frame setup instructions have to be written by hand, which most people don't do. So the end result is that CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is honored for C code but not for most asm code. For stack traces based on frame pointers to be reliable, all functions which call other functions must first create a stack frame and update the frame pointer. If a first function doesn't properly create a stack frame before calling a second function, the *caller* of the first function will be skipped on the stack trace. For example, consider the following example backtrace with frame pointers enabled: [<ffffffff81812584>] dump_stack+0x4b/0x63 [<ffffffff812d6dc2>] cmdline_proc_show+0x12/0x30 [<ffffffff8127f568>] seq_read+0x108/0x3e0 [<ffffffff812cce62>] proc_reg_read+0x42/0x70 [<ffffffff81256197>] __vfs_read+0x37/0x100 [<ffffffff81256b16>] vfs_read+0x86/0x130 [<ffffffff81257898>] SyS_read+0x58/0xd0 [<ffffffff8181c1f2>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x76 It correctly shows that the caller of cmdline_proc_show() is seq_read(). If we remove the frame pointer logic from cmdline_proc_show() by replacing the frame pointer related instructions with nops, here's what it looks like instead: [<ffffffff81812584>] dump_stack+0x4b/0x63 [<ffffffff812d6dc2>] cmdline_proc_show+0x12/0x30 [<ffffffff812cce62>] proc_reg_read+0x42/0x70 [<ffffffff81256197>] __vfs_read+0x37/0x100 [<ffffffff81256b16>] vfs_read+0x86/0x130 [<ffffffff81257898>] SyS_read+0x58/0xd0 [<ffffffff8181c1f2>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x76 Notice that cmdline_proc_show()'s caller, seq_read(), has been skipped. Instead the stack trace seems to show that cmdline_proc_show() was called by proc_reg_read(). The benefit of "objtool check" here is that because it ensures that *all* functions honor CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, no functions will ever[*] be skipped on a stack trace. [*] unless an interrupt or exception has occurred at the very beginning of a function before the stack frame has been created, or at the very end of the function after the stack frame has been destroyed. This is an inherent limitation of frame pointers. b) 100% reliable stack traces for DWARF enabled kernels This is not yet implemented. For more details about what is planned, see tools/objtool/Documentation/stack-validation.txt. c) Higher live patching compatibility rate This is not yet implemented. For more details about what is planned, see tools/objtool/Documentation/stack-validation.txt. To achieve the validation, "objtool check" enforces the following rules: 1. Each callable function must be annotated as such with the ELF function type. In asm code, this is typically done using the ENTRY/ENDPROC macros. If objtool finds a return instruction outside of a function, it flags an error since that usually indicates callable code which should be annotated accordingly. This rule is needed so that objtool can properly identify each callable function in order to analyze its stack metadata. 2. Conversely, each section of code which is *not* callable should *not* be annotated as an ELF function. The ENDPROC macro shouldn't be used in this case. This rule is needed so that objtool can ignore non-callable code. Such code doesn't have to follow any of the other rules. 3. Each callable function which calls another function must have the correct frame pointer logic, if required by CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER or the architecture's back chain rules. This can by done in asm code with the FRAME_BEGIN/FRAME_END macros. This rule ensures that frame pointer based stack traces will work as designed. If function A doesn't create a stack frame before calling function B, the _caller_ of function A will be skipped on the stack trace. 4. Dynamic jumps and jumps to undefined symbols are only allowed if: a) the jump is part of a switch statement; or b) the jump matches sibling call semantics and the frame pointer has the same value it had on function entry. This rule is needed so that objtool can reliably analyze all of a function's code paths. If a function jumps to code in another file, and it's not a sibling call, objtool has no way to follow the jump because it only analyzes a single file at a time. 5. A callable function may not execute kernel entry/exit instructions. The only code which needs such instructions is kernel entry code, which shouldn't be be in callable functions anyway. This rule is just a sanity check to ensure that callable functions return normally. It currently only supports x86_64. I tried to make the code generic so that support for other architectures can hopefully be plugged in relatively easily. On my Lenovo laptop with a i7-4810MQ 4-core/8-thread CPU, building the kernel with objtool checking every .o file adds about three seconds of total build time. It hasn't been optimized for performance yet, so there are probably some opportunities for better build performance.
