perf test: Fix test trace+probe_vfs_getname.sh on s390

2020-10-01T11:14:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2bbc83537614517730e9f2811195004b712de207 ]

This test places a kprobe to function getname_flags() in the kernel
which has the following prototype:

  struct filename *getname_flags(const char __user *filename, int flags, int *empty)

The 'filename' argument points to a filename located in user space memory.

Looking at commit 88903c464321c ("tracing/probe: Add ustring type for
user-space string") the kprobe should indicate that user space memory is
accessed.

Output before:

   [root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf test 66 67
   66: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames   : FAILED!
   67: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: FAILED!
   [root@m35lp76 perf]#

Output after:

   [root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf test 66 67
   66: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames   : Ok
   67: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Ok
   [root@m35lp76 perf]#

Comments from Masami Hiramatsu:

This bug doesn't happen on x86 or other archs on which user address
space and kernel address space is the same. On some arches (ppc64 in
this case?) user address space is partially or completely the same as
kernel address space.

(Yes, they switch the world when running into the kernel) In this case,
we need to use different data access functions for each space.

That is why I introduced the "ustring" type for kprobe events.

As far as I can see, Thomas's patch is sane. Thomas, could you show us
your result on your test environment?

perf tests: Disable bp_signal testing for arm64

2019-12-31T15:35:21+00:00

[ Upstream commit 6a5f3d94cb69a185b921cb92c39888dc31009acb ]

As there are several discussions for enabling perf breakpoint signal
testing on arm64 platform: arm64 needs to rely on single-step to execute
the breakpointed instruction and then reinstall the breakpoint exception
handler.  But if we hook the breakpoint with a signal, the signal
handler will do the stepping rather than the breakpointed instruction,
this causes infinite loops as below:

         Kernel space              |            Userspace
  ---------------------------------|--------------------------------
                                   |  __test_function() -> hit
				   |                       breakpoint
  breakpoint_handler()             |
    `-> user_enable_single_step()  |
  do_signal()                      |
                                   |  sig_handler() -> Step one
				   |                instruction and
				   |                trap to kernel
  single_step_handler()            |
    `-> reinstall_suspended_bps()  |
                                   |  __test_function() -> hit
				   |     breakpoint again and
				   |     repeat up flow infinitely

As Will Deacon mentioned [1]: "that we require the overflow handler to
do the stepping on arm/arm64, which is relied upon by GDB/ptrace. The
hw_breakpoint code is a complete disaster so my preference would be to
rip out the perf part and just implement something directly in ptrace,
but it's a pretty horrible job".  Though Will commented this on arm
architecture, but the comment also can apply on arm64 architecture.

For complete information, I searched online and found a few years back,
Wang Nan sent one patch 'arm64: Store breakpoint single step state into
pstate' [2]; the patch tried to resolve this issue by avoiding single
stepping in signal handler and defer to enable the signal stepping when
return to __test_function().  The fixing was not merged due to the
concern for missing to handle different usage cases.

Based on the info, the most feasible way is to skip Perf breakpoint
signal testing for arm64 and this could avoid the duplicate
investigation efforts when people see the failure.  This patch skips
this case on arm64 platform, which is same with arm architecture.

perf test: Report failure for mmap events

[ Upstream commit 6add129c5d9210ada25217abc130df0b7096ee02 ]

When fail to mmap events in task exit case, it misses to set 'err' to
-1; thus the testing will not report failure for it.

This patch sets 'err' to -1 when fails to mmap events, thus Perf tool
can report correct result.

perf tests: Avoid raising SEGV using an obvious NULL dereference

2019-11-06T12:05:41+00:00

[ Upstream commit e3e2cf3d5b1fe800b032e14c0fdcd9a6fb20cf3b ]

An optimized build such as:

  make -C tools/perf CLANG=1 CC=clang EXTRA_CFLAGS="-O3

will turn the dereference operation into a ud2 instruction, raising a
SIGILL rather than a SIGSEGV. Use raise(..) for correctness and clarity.

Similar issues were addressed in Numfor Mbiziwo-Tiapo's patch:

perf test vfs_getname: Disable ~/.perfconfig to get default output

[ Upstream commit 4fe94ce1c6ba678b5f12b94bb9996eea4fc99e85 ]

achieve that.
