<content type='text'>
The recent commit 76d588dddc45 ("powerpc/imc-pmu: Fix use of mutex in
IRQs disabled section") fixed warnings (and possible deadlocks) in the
IMC PMU driver by converting the locking to use spinlocks.

It also converted the init-time nest_init_lock to a spinlock, even
though it's not used at runtime in IRQ disabled sections or while
holding other spinlocks.

This leads to warnings such as:

  BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at include/linux/percpu-rwsem.h:49

Fix it by converting nest_init_lock back to a mutex, so that we can call
sleeping functions while holding it. There is no interaction between
nest_init_lock and the runtime spinlocks used by the actual PMU routines.

The above warning triggered because the current imc-pmu code uses mutex
lock in interrupt disabled sections. The function mutex_lock()
internally calls __might_resched(), which will check if IRQs are
disabled and in case IRQs are disabled, it will trigger the warning.

Fix the issue by changing the mutex lock to spinlock.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - Add powerpc qspinlock implementation optimised for large system
   scalability and paravirt. See the merge message for more details

 - Enable objtool to be built on powerpc to generate mcount locations

 - Use a temporary mm for code patching with the Radix MMU, so the
   writable mapping is restricted to the patching CPU

 - Add an option to build the 64-bit big-endian kernel with the ELFv2
   ABI

 - Sanitise user registers on interrupt entry on 64-bit Book3S

 - Many other small features and fixes

<content type='text'>
Based on getPerfCountInfo v1.018 documentation, some of the
hv_gpci events were deprecated for platform firmware that
supports counter_info_version 0x8 or above.

Fix the hv_gpci event list by adding a new attribute group
called "hv_gpci_event_attrs_v6" and a "ENABLE_EVENTS_COUNTERINFO_V6"
macro to enable these events for platform firmware
that supports counter_info_version 0x6 or below. And assigning
the hv_gpci event list based on output counter info version
of underlying plaform.

This is a count of longs from the stack pointer to the regs marker.

This is a common offset that currently uses the overloaded
STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD constant. It's easier to read and more
flexible to use a specific regs offset for this.

The interrupt frame detection and loads from the hypothetical pt_regs
are not bounds-checked. The next-frame validation only bounds-checks
STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD, which does not include the pt_regs. Add another
test for this.

The user could set r1 to be equal to the address matching the first
interrupt frame - STACK_INT_FRAME_SIZE, which is in the previous page
due to the kernel redzone, and induce the kernel to load the marker from
there. Possibly this could cause a crash at least. If the user could
induce the previous page to contain a valid marker, then it might be
able to direct perf to read specific memory addresses in a way that
could be transmitted back to the user in the perf data.

<title>perf: Rewrite core context handling</title>

<id>bd27568117664b8b3e259721393df420ed51f57b</id>
<content type='text'>
There have been various issues and limitations with the way perf uses
(task) contexts to track events. Most notable is the single hardware
PMU task context, which has resulted in a number of yucky things (both
proposed and merged).

Notably:
 - HW breakpoint PMU
 - ARM big.little PMU / Intel ADL PMU
 - Intel Branch Monitoring PMU
 - AMD IBS PMU
 - S390 cpum_cf PMU
 - PowerPC trace_imc PMU

*Current design:*

Currently we have a per task and per cpu perf_event_contexts:

  task_struct::perf_events_ctxp[] &lt;-&gt; perf_event_context &lt;-&gt; perf_cpu_context
       ^                                 |    ^     |           ^
       `---------------------------------'    |     `--&gt; pmu ---'
                                              v           ^
                                         perf_event ------'

Each task has an array of pointers to a perf_event_context. Each
perf_event_context has a direct relation to a PMU and a group of
events for that PMU. The task related perf_event_context's have a
pointer back to that task.

Each PMU has a per-cpu pointer to a per-cpu perf_cpu_context, which
includes a perf_event_context, which again has a direct relation to
that PMU, and a group of events for that PMU.

The perf_cpu_context also tracks which task context is currently
associated with that CPU and includes a few other things like the
hrtimer for rotation etc.

Each perf_event is then associated with its PMU and one
perf_event_context.

*Proposed design:*

New design proposed by this patch reduce to a single task context and
a single CPU context but adds some intermediate data-structures:

  task_struct::perf_event_ctxp -&gt; perf_event_context &lt;- perf_cpu_context
       ^                           |   ^ ^
       `---------------------------'   | |
                                       | |    perf_cpu_pmu_context &lt;--.
                                       | `----.    ^                  |
                                       |      |    |                  |
                                       |      v    v                  |
                                       | ,--&gt; perf_event_pmu_context  |
                                       | |                            |
                                       | |                            |
                                       v v                            |
                                  perf_event ---&gt; pmu ----------------'

With the new design, perf_event_context will hold all events for all
pmus in the (respective pinned/flexible) rbtrees. This can be achieved
by adding pmu to rbtree key:

  {cpu, pmu, cgroup, group_index}

Each perf_event_context carries a list of perf_event_pmu_context which
is used to hold per-pmu-per-context state. For example, it keeps track
of currently active events for that pmu, a pmu specific task_ctx_data,
a flag to tell whether rotation is required or not etc.

Additionally, perf_cpu_pmu_context is used to hold per-pmu-per-cpu
state like hrtimer details to drive the event rotation, a pointer to
perf_event_pmu_context of currently running task and some other
ancillary information.

Each perf_event is associated to it's pmu, perf_event_context and
perf_event_pmu_context.

Further optimizations to current implementation are possible. For
example, ctx_resched() can be optimized to reschedule only single pmu
events.

Much thanks to Ravi for picking this up and pushing it towards
completion.

Pull perf events updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "PMU driver updates:

   - Add AMD Last Branch Record Extension Version 2 (LbrExtV2) feature
     support for Zen 4 processors.

   - Extend the perf ABI to provide branch speculation information, if
     available, and use this on CPUs that have it (eg. LbrExtV2).

   - Improve Intel PEBS TSC timestamp handling &amp; integration.

   - Add Intel Raptor Lake S CPU support.

   - Add 'perf mem' and 'perf c2c' memory profiling support on AMD CPUs
     by utilizing IBS tagged load/store samples.

   - Clean up &amp; optimize various x86 PMU details.

  HW breakpoints:

   - Big rework to optimize the code for systems with hundreds of CPUs
     and thousands of breakpoints:

      - Replace the nr_bp_mutex global mutex with the bp_cpuinfo_sem
        per-CPU rwsem that is read-locked during most of the key
        operations.

      - Improve the O(#cpus * #tasks) logic in toggle_bp_slot() and
        fetch_bp_busy_slots().

      - Apply micro-optimizations &amp; cleanups.

  - Misc cleanups &amp; enhancements"

Pull perf events updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "PMU driver updates:

   - Add AMD Last Branch Record Extension Version 2 (LbrExtV2) feature
     support for Zen 4 processors.

   - Extend the perf ABI to provide branch speculation information, if
     available, and use this on CPUs that have it (eg. LbrExtV2).

   - Improve Intel PEBS TSC timestamp handling &amp; integration.

   - Add Intel Raptor Lake S CPU support.

   - Add 'perf mem' and 'perf c2c' memory profiling support on AMD CPUs
     by utilizing IBS tagged load/store samples.

   - Clean up &amp; optimize various x86 PMU details.

  HW breakpoints:

   - Big rework to optimize the code for systems with hundreds of CPUs
     and thousands of breakpoints:

      - Replace the nr_bp_mutex global mutex with the bp_cpuinfo_sem
        per-CPU rwsem that is read-locked during most of the key
        operations.

      - Improve the O(#cpus * #tasks) logic in toggle_bp_slot() and
        fetch_bp_busy_slots().

      - Apply micro-optimizations &amp; cleanups.

  - Misc cleanups &amp; enhancements"
