Pull SMP hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update is primarily a cleanup of the CPU hotplug locking code.The hotplug locking mechanism is an open coded RWSEM, which allows
recursive locking. The main problem with that is the recursive nature
as it evades the full lockdep coverage and hides potential deadlocks.The rework replaces the open coded RWSEM with a percpu RWSEM and
establishes full lockdep coverage that way.The bulk of the changes fix up recursive locking issues and address
the now fully reported potential deadlocks all over the place. Some of
these deadlocks have been observed in the RT tree, but on mainline the
probability was low enough to hide them away."* 'smp-hotplug-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (37 commits)

If the event for which an AUX area is about to be allocated, does
not support setting up an AUX area, rb_alloc_aux() return -ENOTSUPP.This error condition is being returned unfiltered to the user space,
and, for example, the perf tools fails with:failed to mmap with 524 (INTERNAL ERROR: strerror_r(524, 0x3fff497a1c8, 512)=22)
This error can be easily seen with "perf record -m 128,256 -e cpu-clock".
The 524 error code maps to -ENOTSUPP (in rb_alloc_aux()). The -ENOTSUPP
error code shall be only used within the kernel. So the correct error
code would then be -EOPNOTSUPP.With this commit, the perf tool then reports:
failed to mmap with 95 (Operation not supported)
which is more clear.

Andi was asking about PERF_FORMAT_GROUP vs inherited events, which led
to the discovery of a bug from commit:3dab77fb1bf8 ("perf: Rework/fix the whole read vs group stuff")
- PERF_SAMPLE_GROUP = 1U << 4,
+ PERF_SAMPLE_READ = 1U << 4,- if (attr->inherit && (attr->sample_type & PERF_SAMPLE_GROUP))
+ if (attr->inherit && (attr->read_format & PERF_FORMAT_GROUP))is a clear fail :/
While this changes user visible behaviour; it was previously possible
to create an inherited event with PERF_SAMPLE_READ; this is deemed
acceptible because its results were always incorrect.Reported-by: Andi Kleen

When doing sampling, for example:
perf record -e cycles:u ...
On workloads that do a lot of kernel entry/exits we see kernel
samples, even though :u is specified. This is due to skid existing.This might be a security issue because it can leak kernel addresses even
though kernel sampling support is disabled.The patch drops the kernel samples if exclude_kernel is specified.

perf, tracing, kprobes and jump_labels have a gazillion of ways to create
dependency lock chains. Some of those involve nested invocations of
get_online_cpus().The conversion of the hotplug locking to a percpu rwsem requires to avoid
such nested calls. sys_perf_event_open() protects most of the syscall logic
against cpu hotplug. This causes nested calls and lock inversions versus
ftrace and kprobes in various interesting ways.It's impossible to move the hotplug locking to the outer end of all call
chains in the involved facilities, so the hotplug protection in
sys_perf_event_open() needs to be solved differently.Introduce 'pmus_mutex' which protects a perf private online cpumask. This
mutex is taken when the mask is updated in the cpu hotplug callbacks and
can be taken in sys_perf_event_open() to protect the swhash setup/teardown
code and when the final judgement about a valid event has to be made.[ tglx: Produced changelog and fixed the swhash interaction ]

Perf can generate and record a user callchain in response to a synchronous
request, such as a tracepoint firing. If this happens under set_fs(KERNEL_DS),
then we can end up walking the user stack (and dereferencing/saving whatever we
find there) without the protections usually afforded by checks such as
access_ok.Rather than play whack-a-mole with each architecture's stack unwinding
implementation, fix the root of the problem by ensuring that we force USER_DS
when invoking perf_callchain_user from the perf core.Reported-by: Al Viro

While going through the event inheritance code Oleg got confused.
Add some comments to better explain the silent dissapearance of
orphaned events.So what happens is that at perf_event_release_kernel() time; when an
event looses its connection to userspace (and ceases to exist from the
user's perspective) we can still have an arbitrary amount of inherited
copies of the event. We want to synchronously find and remove all
these child events.Since that requires a bit of lock juggling, there is the possibility
that concurrent clone()s will create new child events. Therefore we
first mark the parent event as DEAD, which marks all the extant child
events as orphaned.We then avoid copying orphaned events; in order to avoid getting more
of them.Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel)

left in the buffer (i.e. truncated transactions). Therefore, this condition
does not imply a wakeup for the consumer.To this end, add a new "partial" AUX flag.

With the advert of container technologies like docker, that depend on
namespaces for isolation, there is a need for tracing support for
namespaces. This patch introduces new PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES event for
recording namespaces related info. By recording info for every
namespace, it is left to userspace to take a call on the definition of a
container and trace containers by updating perf tool accordingly.Each namespace has a combination of device and inode numbers. Though
every namespace has the same device number currently, that may change in
future to avoid the need for a namespace of namespaces. Considering such
possibility, record both device and inode numbers separately for each
namespace.Signed-off-by: Hari Bathini

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
"Several noteworthy changes.- Parav's rdma controller is finally merged. It is very straight
forward and can limit the abosolute numbers of common rdma
constructs used by different cgroups.- kernel/cgroup.c got too chubby and disorganized. Created
kernel/cgroup/ subdirectory and moved all cgroup related files
under kernel/ there and reorganized the core code. This hurts for
backporting patches but was long overdue.- cgroup v2 process listing reimplemented so that it no longer
depends on allocating a buffer large enough to cache the entire
result to sort and uniq the output. v2 has always mangled the sort
order to ensure that users don't depend on the sorted output, so
this shouldn't surprise anybody. This makes the pid listing
functions use the same iterators that are used internally, which
have to have the same iterating capabilities anyway.- perf cgroup filtering now works automatically on cgroup v2. This
patch was posted a long time ago but somehow fell through the
cracks.- misc fixes asnd documentation updates"

We already have the helper, we can convert the rest of the kernel
mechanically using:git grep -l 'atomic_inc_not_zero.*mm_users' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc_not_zero(&\(.*\)->mm_users)/mmget_not_zero\(\1\)/'
This is needed for a later patch that hooks into the helper, but might
be a worthwhile cleanup on its own.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161218123229.22952-3-vegard.nossum@oracle.com

For consistency, it worth converting all page_check_address() to
page_vma_mapped_walk(), so we could drop the former.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170129173858.45174-10-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com

Patch series "Fix few rmap-related THP bugs", v3.
The patchset fixes handing PTE-mapped THPs in page_referenced() and
page_idle_clear_pte_refs().To achieve that I've intrdocued new helper -- page_vma_mapped_walk() --
which replaces all page_check_address{,_transhuge}() and covers all THP
cases.Patchset overview:
- First patch fixes one uprobe bug (unrelated to the rest of the
patchset, just spotted it at the same time);- Patches 2-5 fix handling PTE-mapped THPs in page_referenced(),
page_idle_clear_pte_refs() and rmap core;- Patches 6-12 convert all page_check_address{,_transhuge}() users
(plus remove_migration_pte()) to page_vma_mapped_walk() and drop
unused helpers.I think the fixes are not critical enough for stable@ as they don't lead
to crashes or hangs, only suboptimal behaviour.This patch (of 12):
For THPs page_check_address() always fails. It leads to endless loop in
uprobe_write_opcode().Testcase with huge-tmpfs (uprobes cannot probe anonymous memory).
mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
mount -t tmpfs -o huge=always none /mnt
gcc -Wall -O2 -o /mnt/test -x c - < /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/uprobes/enable
/mnt/testLet's split THPs before trying to replace.

->fault(), ->page_mkwrite(), and ->pfn_mkwrite() calls do not need to
take a vma and vmf parameter when the vma already resides in vmf.Remove the vma parameter to simplify things.

Use "proc_dointvec_minmax" instead of "proc_dointvec" to check the input
value from user-space.If not, we can set a big value and some vars will overflow like
"sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate" which will cause a lot of unexpected
problems.Signed-off-by: Tan Xiaojun

Since commit:
321027c1fe77 ("perf/core: Fix concurrent sys_perf_event_open() vs. 'move_group' race")
... the code looks like (assuming move_group==1):
gctx = __perf_event_ctx_lock_double(group_leader, ctx);
perf_remove_from_context(group_leader, 0);
list_for_each_entry(sibling, &group_leader->sibling_list, group_entry) {
perf_remove_from_context(sibling, 0);
put_ctx(gctx);
}/* ... */
/* misleading comment about how this is the last reference */
put_ctx(gctx);perf_event_ctx_unlock(group_leader, gctx);
What that 'last' put_ctx() does is drop @group_leader's reference on
gctx after having dropped all its potential sibling references.But the thing is that __perf_event_ctx_lock_double() returns with a
reference _and_ a held lock, and perf_event_ctx_unlock() unlocks that
lock and drops that reference. Therefore that put_ctx() cannot be the
'last' of anything, nor is there an unbalance in puts.To reduce confusion, remove the comment and place the put_ctx() next
to the remove_from_context() call.Reported-by: Ben Hutchings
