While registering nest imc at init, cpu-hotplug callback
nest_pmu_cpumask_init() makes an OPAL call to stop the engine. And if
the OPAL call fails, imc_common_cpuhp_mem_free() is invoked to cleanup
memory and cpuhotplug setup.

But when cleaning up the attribute group, we are dereferencing the
attribute element array without checking whether the backing element
is not NULL. This causes the kernel panic.

Add a check for the backing element prior to dereferencing the
attribute element, to handle the failing case gracefully.

Anju T Sudhakar 0d923820c6 powerpc/perf: Fix for core/nest imc call trace on cpuhotplug
Nest/core pmu units are enabled only when it is used. A reference count is
maintained for the events which uses the nest/core pmu units. Currently in
*_imc_counters_release function a WARN() is used for notification of any
underflow of ref count.

The case where event ref count hit a negative value is, when perf session is
started, followed by offlining of all cpus in a given core.
i.e. in cpuhotplug offline path ppc_core_imc_cpu_offline() function set the
ref->count to zero, if the current cpu which is about to offline is the last
cpu in a given core and make an OPAL call to disable the engine in that core.
And on perf session termination, perf->destroy (core_imc_counters_release) will
first decrement the ref->count for this core and based on the ref->count value
an opal call is made to disable the core-imc engine.
Now, since cpuhotplug path already clears the ref->count for core and disabled
the engine, perf->destroy() decrementing again at event termination make it
negative which in turn fires the WARN_ON. The same happens for nest units.

Add a check to see if the reference count is alreday zero, before decrementing
the count, so that the ref count will not hit a negative value.

Linus Torvalds bac65d9d87 powerpc updates for 4.14
Nothing really major this release, despite quite a lot of activity. Just lots of
 things all over the place.
 
 Some things of note include:
 
  - Access via perf to a new type of PMU (IMC) on Power9, which can count both
    core events as well as nest unit events (Memory controller etc).
 
  - Optimisations to the radix MMU TLB flushing, mostly to avoid unnecessary Page
    Walk Cache (PWC) flushes when the structure of the tree is not changing.
 
  - Reworks/cleanups of do_page_fault() to modernise it and bring it closer to
    other architectures where possible.
 
  - Rework of our page table walking so that THP updates only need to send IPIs
    to CPUs where the affected mm has run, rather than all CPUs.
 
  - The size of our vmalloc area is increased to 56T on 64-bit hash MMU systems.
    This avoids problems with the percpu allocator on systems with very sparse
    NUMA layouts.
 
  - STRICT_KERNEL_RWX support on PPC32.
 
  - A new sched domain topology for Power9, to capture the fact that pairs of
    cores may share an L2 cache.
 
  - Power9 support for VAS, which is a new mechanism for accessing coprocessors,
    and initial support for using it with the NX compression accelerator.
 
  - Major work on the instruction emulation support, adding support for many new
    instructions, and reworking it so it can be used to implement the emulation
    needed to fixup alignment faults.
 
  - Support for guests under PowerVM to use the Power9 XIVE interrupt controller.
 
 And probably that many things again that are almost as interesting, but I had to
 keep the list short. Plus the usual fixes and cleanups as always.

Kan Liang fc7ce9c74c perf/core, x86: Add PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR
For understanding how the workload maps to memory channels and hardware
behavior, it's very important to collect address maps with physical
addresses. For example, 3D XPoint access can only be found by filtering
the physical address.

Add a new sample type for physical address.

perf already has a facility to collect data virtual address. This patch
introduces a function to convert the virtual address to physical address.
The function is quite generic and can be extended to any architecture as
long as a virtual address is provided.

 - For kernel direct mapping addresses, virt_to_phys is used to convert
   the virtual addresses to physical address.

 - For user virtual addresses, __get_user_pages_fast is used to walk the
   pages tables for user physical address.

 - This does not work for vmalloc addresses right now. These are not
   resolved, but code to do that could be added.

The new sample type requires collecting the virtual address. The
virtual address will not be output unless SAMPLE_ADDR is applied.

For security, the physical address can only be exposed to root or
privileged user.

Aneesh Kumar K.V 94171b19c3 powerpc/mm: Rename find_linux_pte_or_hugepte()
Add newer helpers to make the function usage simpler. It is always
recommended to use find_current_mm_pte() for walking the page table.
If we cannot use find_current_mm_pte(), it should be documented why
the said usage of __find_linux_pte() is safe against a parallel THP
split.

For now we have KVM code using __find_linux_pte(). This is because kvm
code ends up calling __find_linux_pte() in real mode with MSR_EE=0 but
with PACA soft_enabled = 1. We may want to fix that later and make
sure we keep the MSR_EE and PACA soft_enabled in sync. When we do that
we can switch kvm to use find_linux_pte().

nest_imc_refc is a reference count struct, used to track number of
active perf sessions using the nest units.

Currently the code accesses nest_imc_refc using node_id, which is
incorrect, the array is indexed by node number. Meaning in the case of
sparse node ids we index off the end of the array.

Fix it to use get_nest_pmu_ref() which uses the existing per-cpu
variable local_nest_imc_refc.

Anju T 7efbae9089 powerpc/perf/imc: Fix nest events on muti socket system
In a multi node system with discontiguous node ids, nest event values
are not showing up properly. eg. lscpu output:

  NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-15
  NUMA node8 CPU(s): 16-31

Nest event values on such systems can be counted on CPUs <= 15:

  $./perf stat -e 'nest_powerbus0_imc/PM_PB_CYC/' -C 0-14 -I 1000 sleep 1000
  #           time             counts unit events
       1.000294577    30,17,24,42,880 nest_powerbus0_imc/PM_PB_CYC/

But not on CPUs >= 16:

  $./perf stat -e 'nest_powerbus0_imc/PM_PB_CYC/' -C 16-28 -I 1000 sleep 1000
  #           time             counts unit events
       1.000049902    <not supported> nest_powerbus0_imc/PM_PB_CYC/

This is because, when fetching the reference count, the node id (which
may be sparse) is used as the array index, not the node number (which
is 0 based and contiguous).

Fix it by using the node number as the array index.

  $./perf stat -e 'nest_powerbus0_imc/PM_PB_CYC/' -C 16-28 -I 1000 sleep 1000
  #           time             counts unit events

Madhavan Srinivasan 70a7e72099 powerpc/perf: Factor out PPMU_ONLY_COUNT_RUN check code from power8
There are some hardware events on Power systems which only count when
the processor is not idle, and there are some fixed-function counters
which count such events. For example, the "run cycles" event counts
cycles when the processor is not idle. If the user asks to count
cycles, we can use "run cycles" if this is a per-task event, since the
processor is running when the task is running, by definition. We can't
use "run cycles" if the user asks for "cycles" on a system-wide
counter.

Currently in power8 this check is done using PPMU_ONLY_COUNT_RUN flag
in power8_get_alternatives() function. Based on the flag, events are
switched if needed. This function should also be enabled in power9, so
factor out the code to isa207_get_alternatives().

sampling on Power9') set the default sdar_mode value in MMCRA[SDAR_MODE]
to be used as 0b01 (Update on TLB miss). And this value is set if sdar_mode
from event is zero, or we are in continous sampling mode in power9 dd1.

But it is preferred to have the sdar_mode value for power9 as
0b10 (Update on dcache miss) for better sampling updates instead
of 0b01 (Update on TLB miss).

From Anton:

Using a bandwidth test case with a 1MB footprint, I profiled cycles and
chose TLB updates of the SDAR:

  $ perf record -d -e r000400000000001E:u ./bw2001 1M
                        ^
                        SDAR TLB

  $ perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE | sed 's/.*addr: //' | sort -u | wc -l
  4

  I get 4 unique addresses. If I ran with dcache misses:

  $ perf record -d -e r000800000000001E:u ./bw2001 1M
                        ^
                        SDAR dcache miss

  $ perf report -D|grep PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE| sed 's/.*addr: //'|sort -u | wc -l
  5217

I get 5217 unique addresses. No surprises here, but it does show why
TLB misses is the wrong event to default to - we get very little useful
information out of it.

Madhavan Srinivasan 20dd4c624d powerpc/perf: Fix SDAR_MODE value for continous sampling on Power9
In case of continous sampling (non-marked), the code currently
sets MMCRA[SDAR_MODE] to 0b01 (Update on TLB miss) for Power9 DD1.

On DD2 and later it copies the sdar_mode value from the event code,
which for most events is 0b00 (No updates).

However we must set a non-zero value for SDAR_MODE when doing
continuous sampling, so honor the event code, unless it's zero, in
which case we use use 0b01 (Update on TLB miss).

The H_GET_24X7_CATALOG_PAGE hcall can return a signed error code, so fix
this in the code.

The H_GET_24X7_DATA hcall can return a signed error code, so fix this in
the code. Also, don't truncate it to 32 bit to use as return value for
make_24x7_request. In case of error h_24x7_event_commit_txn passes that
return value to generic code, so it should be a proper errno. The other
caller of make_24x7_request is single_24x7_request, whose callers don't
actually care which error code is returned so they are not affected by this
change.

Finally, h_24x7_get_value doesn't use the error code from
single_24x7_request, so there's no need to store it.

Thiago Jung Bauermann 41f577eb01 powerpc/perf/hv-24x7: Properly iterate through results
hv-24x7.h has a comment mentioning that result_buffer->results can't be
indexed as a normal array because it may contain results of variable sizes,
so fix the loop in h_24x7_event_commit_txn to take the variation into
account when iterating through results.

Another problem in that loop is that it sets h24x7hw->events[i] to NULL.
This assumes that only the i'th result maps to the i'th request, but that
is not guaranteed to be true. We need to leave the event in the array so
that we don't dereference a NULL pointer in case more than one result maps
to one request.

We still assume that each result has only one result element, so warn if
that assumption is violated.

This patch has been reworked since RFC version. In the RFC, this patch
was preceded by a patch clearing MSR RI for all PPC32 at all time at
exception prologs. Now MSR RI clearing is done only when this 8xx perf
events functionality is compiled in, it is therefore limited to 8xx
and merged inside this patch.
Other main changes have been to take into account detailed review from
Peter Zijlstra. The instructions counter has been reworked to behave
as a free running counter like the three other counters.

The 8xx has no PMU, however some events can be emulated by other means.

This patch implements the following events (as reported by 'perf list'):
  cpu-cycles OR cycles				[Hardware event]
  instructions					[Hardware event]
  dTLB-load-misses				[Hardware cache event]
  iTLB-load-misses				[Hardware cache event]

'cycles' event is implemented using the timebase clock. Timebase clock
corresponds to CPU clock divided by 16, so number of cycles is
approximatly 16 times the number of TB ticks

On the 8xx, TLB misses are handled by software. It is therefore
easy to count all TLB misses each time the TLB miss exception is
called.

'instructions' is calculated by using instruction watchpoint counter.
This patch sets counter A to count instructions at address greater
than 0, hence we count all instructions executed while MSR RI bit is
set. The counter is set to the maximum which is 0xffff. Every 65535
instructions, debug instruction breakpoint exception fires. The
exception handler increments a counter in memory which then
represent the upper part of the instruction counter. We therefore
end up with a 48 bits counter. In order to avoid unnecessary overhead
while no perf event is active, this counter is started when the first
event referring to this counter is added, and the counter is stopped
when the last event referring to it is deleted. In order to properly
support breakpoint exceptions, MSR RI bit has to be unset in exception
epilogs in order to avoid breakpoint exceptions during critical
sections during changes to SRR0 and SRR1 would be problematic.

All counters are handled as free running counters.
