perf_counter: Don't swap contexts containing locked mutex

Peter Zijlstra pointed out that under some circumstances, we can take
the mutex in a context or a counter and then swap that context or
counter to another task, potentially leading to lock order inversions
or the mutexes not protecting what they are supposed to protect.

This fixes the problem by making sure that we never take a mutex in a
context or counter which could get swapped to another task.  Most of
the cases where we take a mutex is on a top-level counter or context,
i.e. a counter which has an fd associated with it or a context that
contains such a counter.  This adds WARN_ON_ONCE statements to verify
that.

The two cases where we need to take the mutex on a context that is a
clone of another are in perf_counter_exit_task and
perf_counter_init_task.  The perf_counter_exit_task case is solved by
uncloning the context before starting to remove the counters from it.
The perf_counter_init_task is a little trickier; we temporarily
disable context swapping for the parent (forking) task by setting its
ctx->parent_gen to the all-1s value after locking the context, if it
is a cloned context, and restore the ctx->parent_gen value at the end
if the context didn't get uncloned in the meantime.

This also moves the increment of the context generation count to be
within the same critical section, protected by the context mutex, that
adds the new counter to the context.  That way, taking the mutex is
sufficient to ensure that both the counter list and the generation
count are stable.

perf_counter: Fix race in attaching counters to tasks and exiting

Commit 564c2b21 ("perf_counter: Optimize context switch between
identical inherited contexts") introduced a race where it is possible
that a counter being attached to a task could get attached to the
wrong task, if the task is one that has inherited its context from
another task via fork.  This happens because the optimized context
switch could switch the context to another task after find_get_context
has read task->perf_counter_ctxp.  In fact, it's possible that the
context could then get freed, if the other task then exits.

This fixes the problem by protecting both the context switch and the
critical code in find_get_context with spinlocks.  The context switch
locks the cxt->lock of both the outgoing and incoming contexts before
swapping them.  That means that once code such as find_get_context
has obtained the spinlock for the context associated with a task,
the context can't get swapped to another task.  However, the context
may have been swapped in the interval between reading
task->perf_counter_ctxp and getting the lock, so it is necessary to
check and retry.

To make sure that none of the contexts being looked at in
find_get_context can get freed, this changes the context freeing code
to use RCU.  Thus an rcu_read_lock() is sufficient to ensure that no
contexts can get freed.  This part of the patch is lifted from a patch
posted by Peter Zijlstra.

This also adds a check to make sure that we can't add a counter to a
task that is exiting.

There is also a race between perf_counter_exit_task and
find_get_context; this solves the race by moving the get_ctx that
was in perf_counter_alloc into the locked region in find_get_context,
so that once find_get_context has got the context for a task, it
won't get freed even if the task calls perf_counter_exit_task.  It
doesn't matter if new top-level (non-inherited) counters get attached
to the context after perf_counter_exit_task has detached the context
from the task.  They will just stay there and never get scheduled in
until the counters' fds get closed, and then perf_release will remove
them from the context and eventually free the context.

With this, we are now doing the unclone in find_get_context rather
than when a counter was added to or removed from a context (actually,
we were missing the unclone_ctx() call when adding a counter to a
context).  We don't need to unclone when removing a counter from a
context because we have no way to remove a counter from a cloned
context.

This also takes out the smp_wmb() in find_get_context, which Peter
Zijlstra pointed out was unnecessary because the cmpxchg implies a
full barrier anyway.

perf report: More robust error handling

Don't let funny events confuse us, stick to what we know and
try to find sensible data again.

If we find an unknown event, check we're still u64 aligned, and
increment by one u64. This ensures we're bound to happen upon a

This shouldnt matter normally (and i have not seen any
misbehavior), because active counters always have a
proper ->oncpu value - but nevertheless initialize the
field properly to -1.

perf_counter, x86: Make NMI lockups more robust

We have a debug check that detects stuck NMIs and returns with
the PMU disabled in the global ctrl MSR - but i managed to trigger
a situation where this was not enough to deassert the NMI.

So clear/reset the full PMU and keep the disable count balanced when
exiting from here. This way the box produces a debug warning but
stays up and is more debuggable.

perf_counter: powerpc: Implement interrupt throttling

This implements interrupt throttling on powerpc.  Since we don't have
individual count enable/disable or interrupt enable/disable controls
per counter, this simply sets the hardware counter to 0, meaning that
it will not interrupt again until it has counted 2^31 counts, which
will take at least 2^30 cycles assuming a maximum of 2 counts per
cycle.  Also, we set counter->hw.period_left to the maximum possible
value (2^63 - 1), so we won't report overflows for this counter for
the forseeable future.

The unthrottle operation restores counter->hw.period_left and the
hardware counter so that we will once again report a counter overflow
after counter->hw.irq_period counts.

perf_counter: Generic per counter interrupt throttle

Introduce a generic per counter interrupt throttle.

This uses the perf_counter_overflow() quick disable to throttle a specific
counter when its going too fast when a pmu->unthrottle() method is provided
which can undo the quick disable.

Power needs to implement both the quick disable and the unthrottle method.

perf_counter: Optimize context switch between identical inherited contexts

When monitoring a process and its descendants with a set of inherited
counters, we can often get the situation in a context switch where
both the old (outgoing) and new (incoming) process have the same set
of counters, and their values are ultimately going to be added together.
In that situation it doesn't matter which set of counters are used to
count the activity for the new process, so there is really no need to
go through the process of reading the hardware counters and updating
the old task's counters and then setting up the PMU for the new task.

This optimizes the context switch in this situation.  Instead of
scheduling out the perf_counter_context for the old task and
scheduling in the new context, we simply transfer the old context
to the new task and keep using it without interruption.  The new
context gets transferred to the old task.  This means that both
tasks still have a valid perf_counter_context, so no special case
is introduced when the old task gets scheduled in again, either on
this CPU or another CPU.

The equivalence of contexts is detected by keeping a pointer in
each cloned context pointing to the context it was cloned from.
To cope with the situation where a context is changed by adding
or removing counters after it has been cloned, we also keep a
generation number on each context which is incremented every time
a context is changed.  When a context is cloned we take a copy
of the parent's generation number, and two cloned contexts are
equivalent only if they have the same parent and the same
generation number.  In order that the parent context pointer
remains valid (and is not reused), we increment the parent
context's reference count for each context cloned from it.

Since we don't have individual fds for the counters in a cloned
context, the only thing that can make two clones of a given parent
different after they have been cloned is enabling or disabling all
counters with prctl.  To account for this, we keep a count of the
number of enabled counters in each context.  Two contexts must have
the same number of enabled counters to be considered equivalent.

Here are some measurements of the context switch time as measured with
the lat_ctx benchmark from lmbench, comparing the times obtained with
and without this patch series:

-----Unmodified----- With this patch series
Counters: none 2 HW 4H+4S none 2 HW 4H+4S

2 processes:
Average 3.44 6.45 11.24 3.12 3.39 3.60
St dev 0.04 0.04 0.13 0.05 0.17 0.19

8 processes:
Average 6.45 8.79 14.00 5.57 6.23 7.57
St dev 1.27 1.04 0.88 1.42 1.46 1.42

32 processes:
Average 5.56 8.43 13.78 5.28 5.55 7.15
St dev 0.41 0.47 0.53 0.54 0.57 0.81

The numbers are the mean and standard deviation of 20 runs of
lat_ctx.  The "none" columns are lat_ctx run directly without any
counters.  The "2 HW" columns are with lat_ctx run under perfstat,
counting cycles and instructions.  The "4H+4S" columns are lat_ctx run
under perfstat with 4 hardware counters and 4 software counters
(cycles, instructions, cache references, cache misses, task
clock, context switch, cpu migrations, and page faults).

perf_counter: Dynamically allocate tasks' perf_counter_context struct

This replaces the struct perf_counter_context in the task_struct with
a pointer to a dynamically allocated perf_counter_context struct.  The
main reason for doing is this is to allow us to transfer a
perf_counter_context from one task to another when we do lazy PMU
switching in a later patch.

This has a few side-benefits: the task_struct becomes a little smaller,
we save some memory because only tasks that have perf_counters attached
get a perf_counter_context allocated for them, and we can remove the
inclusion of <linux/perf_counter.h> in sched.h, meaning that we don't
end up recompiling nearly everything whenever perf_counter.h changes.

The perf_counter_context structures are reference-counted and freed
when the last reference is dropped.  A context can have references
from its task and the counters on its task.  Counters can outlive the
task so it is possible that a context will be freed well after its
task has exited.

Contexts are allocated on fork if the parent had a context, or
otherwise the first time that a per-task counter is created on a task.
In the latter case, we set the context pointer in the task struct
locklessly using an atomic compare-and-exchange operation in case we
raced with some other task in creating a context for the subject task.

This also removes the task pointer from the perf_counter struct.  The
task pointer was not used anywhere and would make it harder to move a
context from one task to another.  Anything that needed to know which
task a counter was attached to was already using counter->ctx->task.

The __perf_counter_init_context function moves up in perf_counter.c
so that it can be called from find_get_context, and now initializes
the refcount, but is otherwise unchanged.

We were potentially calling list_del_counter twice: once from
__perf_counter_exit_task when the task exits and once from
__perf_counter_remove_from_context when the counter's fd gets closed.
This adds a check in list_del_counter so it doesn't do anything if
the counter has already been removed from the lists.

Since perf_counter_task_sched_in doesn't do anything if the task doesn't
have a context, and leaves cpuctx->task_ctx = NULL, this adds code to
__perf_install_in_context to set cpuctx->task_ctx if necessary, i.e. in
the case where the current task adds the first counter to itself and
thus creates a context for itself.

This also adds similar code to __perf_counter_enable to handle a
similar situation which can arise when the counters have been disabled
using prctl; that also leaves cpuctx->task_ctx = NULL.
