The CPU hotplug handlers are called twice: at prepare and online stage.
Their role is to:
1) Enable/disable a CPU context. This is irrelevant and even buggy at
the prepare stage because the CPU is still offline. On early
secondary CPU up, creating an event attached to that CPU might
silently fail because the CPU context is observed as online but the
context installation's IPI failure is ignored.
2) Update the scope cpumasks and re-migrate the events accordingly in
the CPU down case. This is irrelevant at the prepare stage.
3) Remove the events attached to the context of the offlining CPU. It
even uses an (unnecessary) IPI for it. This is also irrelevant at the
prepare stage.
Also none of the *_PREPARE and *_STARTING architecture perf related CPU
hotplug callbacks rely on CPUHP_PERF_PREPARE.
CPUHP_AP_PERF_ONLINE is enough and the right place to perform the work.

The following commit:
da916e96e2 ("perf: Make perf_pmu_unregister() useable")
has introduced two significant event's parent lifecycle changes:
1) An event that has exited now has EVENT_TOMBSTONE as a parent.
This can result in a situation where the delayed wakeup irq_work can
accidentally dereference EVENT_TOMBSTONE on:
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
__schedule()

perf_remove_from_context(child)
raw_spin_lock_irq(&ctx->lock)
// Sees !ctx->is_active
// Removes from context inline
__perf_remove_from_context(child)
perf_child_detach(child)
event->parent = EVENT_TOMBSTONE
raw_spin_rq_unlock_irq(rq);
<IRQ>
perf_pending_irq()
perf_event_wakeup(child)
ring_buffer_wakeup(child)
rcu_dereference(child->parent->rb) <--- CRASH
This also concerns the call to kill_fasync() on parent->fasync.
2) The final parent reference count decrement can now happen before the
the final child reference count decrement. ie: the parent can now
be freed before its child. On PREEMPT_RT, this can result in a
situation where the delayed wakeup irq_work can accidentally
dereference a freed parent:
CPU 0 CPU 1 CPU 2
----- ----- ------
perf_pmu_unregister()
pmu_detach_events()
pmu_get_event()
atomic_long_inc_not_zero(&child->refcount)

event = child->parent
perf_event_release_kernel(parent)
// Not last ref, PMU holds it
put_event(child)
// Last ref
put_event(parent)
free_event()
call_rcu(...)
rcu_core()
free_event_rcu()
rcu_dereference(event->rb) <--- CRASH
This also concerns the call to kill_fasync() on parent->fasync.
The "easy" solution to 1) is to check that event->parent is not
EVENT_TOMBSTONE on perf_event_wakeup() (including both ring buffer
and fasync uses).
The "easy" solution to 2) is to turn perf_event_wakeup() to wholefully
run under rcu_read_lock().
However because of 2), sanity would prescribe to make event::parent
an __rcu pointer and annotate each and every users to prove they are
reliable.
Propose an alternate solution and restore the stable pointer to the
parent until all its children have called _free_event() themselves to
avoid any further accident. Also revert the EVENT_TOMBSTONE design
that is mostly here to determine which caller of perf_event_exit_event()
must perform the refcount decrement on a child event matching the
increment in inherit_event().
Arrange instead for checking the attach state of an event prior to its
removal and decrement the refcount of the child accordingly.

When inherit_event() fails after the child allocation but before the
parent refcount has been incremented, calling put_event() wrongly
decrements the reference to the parent, risking to free it too early.
Also pmu_get_event() can't be holding a reference to the child
concurrently at this point since it is under pmus_srcu critical section.
Fix it with restoring the deleted free_event() function and call it on
the failing child in order to free it directly under the verified
assumption that its refcount is only 1. The refcount to the parent is
then voluntarily omitted.

According to the throttling mechanism, the pmu interrupts number can not
exceed the max_samples_per_tick in one tick. But this mechanism is
ineffective when max_samples_per_tick=1, because the throttling check is
skipped during the first interrupt and only performed when the second
interrupt arrives.
Perhaps this bug may cause little influence in one tick, but if in a
larger time scale, the problem can not be underestimated.
When max_samples_per_tick = 1:
Allowed-interrupts-per-second max-samples-per-second default-HZ ARCH
200 100 100 X86
500 250 250 ARM64

Obviously, the pmu interrupt number far exceed the user's expect.

The counter backwards may be observed in the PMI handler when
counters-snapshotting some non-precise events in the freq mode.
For the non-precise events, it's possible the counters-snapshotting
records a positive value for an overflowed PEBS event. Then the HW
auto-reload mechanism reset the counter to 0 immediately. Because the
pebs_event_reset is cleared in the freq mode, which doesn't set the
PERF_X86_EVENT_AUTO_RELOAD.
In the PMI handler, 0 will be read rather than the positive value
recorded in the counters-snapshotting record.
The counters-snapshotting case has to be specially handled. Since the
event value has been updated when processing the counters-snapshotting
record, only needs to set the new period for the counter via
x86_pmu_set_period().

perf command.
perf record -e "{cpu-clock,cycles/call-graph="lbr"/}" -- sleep 1
It's because the group is mistakenly treated as a branch counter group.
The hw.flags of the leader are used to determine whether a group is a
branch counters group. However, the hw.flags is only available for a
hardware event. The field to store the flags is a union type. For a
software event, it's a hrtimer. The corresponding bit may be set if the
leader is a software event.
For a branch counter group and other groups that have a group flag
(e.g., topdown, PEBS counters snapshotting, and ACR), the leader must
be a X86 event. Check the X86 event before checking the flag.
The patch only fixes the issue for the branch counter group.
The following patch will fix the other groups.
There may be an alternative way to fix the issue by moving the hw.flags
out of the union type. It should work for now. But it's still possible
that the flags will be used by other types of events later. As long as
that type of event is used as a leader, a similar issue will be
triggered. So the alternative way is dropped.

Perf doesn't work at perf stat for hardware events on certain x86 platforms:

The reason is that the check in x86_pmu_hw_config() for sampling events is
unexpectedly applied to counting events as well.
It should only impact x86 platforms with limit_period used for non-PEBS
events. For Intel platforms, it should only impact some older platforms,
e.g., HSW, BDW and NHM.

I had left the warning around but as a non-fatal error to get my gcc-15
builds going, but fixed up some of the most annoying warning cases so
that it wouldn't be *too* verbose.
Because I like the _concept_ of the warning, even if I detested the
implementation to shut it up.
It turns out the implementation to shut it up is even more broken than I
thought, and my "shut up most of the warnings" patch just caused fatal
errors on gcc-14 instead.
I had tested with clang, but when I upgrade my development environment,
I try to do it on all machines because I hate having different systems
to maintain, and hadn't realized that gcc-14 now had issues.
The ACPI case is literally why I wanted to have a *type* that doesn't
trigger the warning (see commit d5d45a7f26: "gcc-15: make
'unterminated string initialization' just a warning"), instead of
marking individual places as "__nonstring".
But gcc-14 doesn't like that __nonstring location that shut gcc-15 up,
because it's on an array of char arrays, not on one single array:
drivers/acpi/tables.c:399:1: error: 'nonstring' attribute ignored on objects of type 'const char[][4]' [-Werror=attributes]
399 | static const char table_sigs[][ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __initconst __nonstring = {
| ^~~~~~
and my attempts to nest it properly with a type had failed, because of
how gcc doesn't like marking the types as having attributes, only
symbols.
There may be some trick to it, but I was already annoyed by the bad
attribute design, now I'm just entirely fed up with it.
I wish gcc had a proper way to say "this type is a *byte* array, not a
string".
The obvious thing would be to distinguish between "char []" and an
explicitly signed "unsigned char []" (as opposed to an implicitly
unsigned char, which is typically an architecture-specific default, but
for the kernel is universal thanks to '-funsigned-char').
But any "we can typedef a 8-bit type to not become a string just because
it's an array" model would be fine.
But "__attribute__((nonstring))" is sadly not that sane model.

The C sequence points are complicated things, and gcc-15 has apparently
added a warning for the case where an object is both used and modified
multiple times within the same sequence point.
That's a great warning.
Or rather, it would be a great warning, except gcc-15 seems to not
really be very exact about it, and doesn't notice that the modification
are to two entirely different members of the same object: the array
counter and the array entries.
So that seems kind of silly.
That said, the code that gcc complains about is unnecessarily
complicated, so moving the array counter update into a separate
statement seems like the most straightforward fix for these warnings:
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mld/d3.c: In function ‘iwl_mld_set_netdetect_info’:
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mld/d3.c:1102:66: error: operation on ‘netdetect_info->n_matches’ may be undefined [-Werror=sequence-point]
1102 | netdetect_info->matches[netdetect_info->n_matches++] = match;
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mld/d3.c:1120:58: error: operation on ‘match->n_channels’ may be undefined [-Werror=sequence-point]
1120 | match->channels[match->n_channels++] =
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~
side note: the code at that second warning is actively buggy, and only
works on little-endian machines that don't do strict alignment checks.
The code casts an array of integers into an array of unsigned long in
order to use our bitmap iterators. That happens to work fine on any
sane architecture, but it's still wrong.
This does *not* fix that more serious problem. This only splits the two
assignments into two statements and fixes the compiler warning. I need
to get rid of the new warnings in order to be able to actually do any
build testing.

All of these cases are perfectly valid and good traditional C, but hit
by the "you're not NUL-terminating your byte array" warning.
And none of the cases want any terminating NUL character.
Mark them __nonstring to shut up gcc-15 (and in the case of the ak8974
magnetometer driver, I just removed the explicit array size and let gcc
expand the 3-byte and 6-byte arrays by one extra byte, because it was
the simpler change).
Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
This removes two cases of explicit NUL padding that now causes warnings
because of '-Wunterminated-string-initialization' being part of -Wextra
in gcc-15.
Gcc is being silly in this case when it says that it truncates a NUL
terminator, because in these cases there were _multiple_ NUL characters.
But we can get rid of the warning by just simplifying the two
initializers that trigger the warning for me, so this does exactly that.
I'm not sure why the power supply code did that odd
.attr_name = #_name "\0",
pattern: it was introduced in commit 2cabeaf151 ("power: supply: core:
Cleanup power supply sysfs attribute list"), but that 'attr_name[]'
field is an explicitly sized character array in a statically initialized
variable, and a string initializer always has a terminating NUL _and_
statically initialized character arrays are zero-padded anyway, so it
really seems to be rather extraneous belt-and-suspenders.
The zero_uuid[16] initialization in drivers/md/bcache/super.c makes
perfect sense, but it isn't necessary for the same reasons, and not
worth the new gcc warning noise.
Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
This is not great: I'd much rather introduce a typedef that is a "ACPI
name byte buffer", and use that to mark these special 4-byte ACPI names
that do not use NUL termination.
But as noted in the previous commit ("gcc-15: make 'unterminated string
initialization' just a warning") gcc doesn't actually seem to support
that notion, so instead you have to just mark every single array
declaration individually.
So this is not pretty, but this gets rid of the bulk of the annoying
warnings during an allmodconfig build for me.

gcc-15 enabling -Wunterminated-string-initialization in -Wextra by
default was done with the best intentions, but the warning is still
quite broken.
What annoys me about the warning is that this is a very traditional AND
CORRECT way to initialize fixed byte arrays in C:
unsigned char hex[16] = "0123456789abcdef";
and we use this all over the kernel. And the warning is fine, but gcc
developers apparently never made a reasonable way to disable it. As is
(sadly) tradition with these things.
Yes, there's "__attribute__((nonstring))", and we have a macro to make
that absolutely disgusting syntax more palatable (ie the kernel syntax
for that monstrosity is just "__nonstring").
But that attribute is misdesigned. What you'd typically want to do is
tell the compiler that you are using a type that isn't a string but a
byte array, but that doesn't work at all:
warning: ‘nonstring’ attribute does not apply to types [-Wattributes]
and because of this fundamental mis-design, you then have to mark each
instance of that pattern.
This is particularly noticeable in our ACPI code, because ACPI has this
notion of a 4-byte "type name" that gets used all over, and is exactly
this kind of byte array.
This is a sad oversight, because the warning is useful, but really would
be so much better if gcc had also given a sane way to indicate that we
really just want a byte array type at a type level, not the broken "each
and every array definition" level.
So now instead of creating a nice "ACPI name" type using something like
typedef char acpi_name_t[4] __nonstring;
we have to do things like
char name[ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __nonstring;
in every place that uses this concept and then happens to have the
typical initializers.
This is annoying me mainly because I think the warning _is_ a good
warning, which is why I'm not just turning it off in disgust. But it is
hampered by this bad implementation detail.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Initialize hash variables in ftrace subops logic
The fix that simplified the ftrace subops logic opened a path where
some variables could be used without being initialized, and done
subtly where the compiler did not catch it. Initialize those
variables to the EMPTY_HASH, which is the default hash.
- Reinitialize the hash pointers after they are freed
Some of the hash pointers in the subop logic were freed but may still
be referenced later. To prevent use-after-free bugs, initialize them
back to the EMPTY_HASH.
- Free the ftrace hashes when they are replaced
The fix that simplified the subops logic updated some hash pointers,
but left the original hash that they were pointing to where they are
no longer used. This caused a memory leak. Free the hashes that are
pointed to by the pointers when they are replaced.
- Fix size initialization of ftrace direct function hash
The ftrace direct function hash used by BPF initialized the hash size
incorrectly. It checked the size of items to a hard coded 32, which
made the hash bit size of 5. The hash size is supposed to be limited
by the bit size of the hash, as the bitmask is allowed to be greater
than 5. Rework the size check to first pass the number of elements to
fls() and then compare that to FTRACE_HASH_MAX_BITS before allocating
the hash.
- Fix format output of ftrace_graph_ent_entry event
The field depth of the ftrace_graph_ent_entry event is of size 4 but
the output showed it as unsigned long and use "%lu". Change it to
unsigned int and use "%u" in the print format that is displayed to
user space.
- Fix the trace event filter on strings
Events can be filtered on numbers or string values. The return value
checked from strncpy_from_kernel_nofault() and
strncpy_from_user_nofault() was used to determine if reading the
strings would fault or not. It would return fault if the value was
non zero, which is basically meant that it was always considering the
read as a fault.
- Add selftest to test trace event string filtering
In order to catch the breakage of the string filtering, add a self
test to make sure that it continues to work.

IB_SIZE is only b0..b19. Starting with a6xx gen3, additional fields
were added above the IB_SIZE. Accidentially setting them can cause
badness. Fix this by properly defining the CP_INDIRECT_BUFFER packet
and using the generated builder macro to ensure unintended bits are not
set.
