The purpose of jitter is to expose concurrency bugs due to invalid
assumptions about forward progress. There is usually little point
in jitter when measuring performance. This commit therefore defaults
jitter off when running rcuperf. You can override this by specifying
the kvm.sh "--jitter" argument -after- the "--torture rcuperf"
argument. No idea why you would want this, but if you do, that is
how you do it.
One example of a conccurrency bug that this jitter might expose is one
in which the developer assumed that a given short region of code would be
guaranteed to execute within some short time limit. Such assumptions are
invalid in virtualized environments because the hupervisor can preempt
the guest OS at any point, even when the guest OS thinks that it has
disabled interrupts.

The 512 megabyte memory size has served quite well, but more memory
is required when using large trace buffers on large systems. This
commit therefore adds a --memory argument to the kvm.sh script, which
allows the memory size to be specified on the command line, for example,
"--memory 768", --memory 800M", or "--memory 2G".

====================
pull-request: bpf 2018-02-09
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Two fixes for BPF sockmap in order to break up circular map references
from programs attached to sockmap, and detaching related sockets in
case of socket close() event. For the latter we get rid of the
smap_state_change() and plug into ULP infrastructure, which will later
also be used for additional features anyway such as TX hooks. For the
second issue, dependency chain is broken up via map release callback
to free parse/verdict programs, all from John.
2) Fix a libbpf relocation issue that was found while implementing XDP
support for Suricata project. Issue was that when clang was invoked
with default target instead of bpf target, then various other e.g.
debugging relevant sections are added to the ELF file that contained
relocation entries pointing to non-BPF related sections which libbpf
trips over instead of skipping them. Test cases for libbpf are added
as well, from Jesper.
3) Various misc fixes for bpftool and one for libbpf: a small addition
to libbpf to make sure it recognizes all standard section prefixes.
Then, the Makefile in bpftool/Documentation is improved to explicitly
check for rst2man being installed on the system as we otherwise risk
installing empty man pages; the man page for bpftool-map is corrected
and a set of missing bash completions added in order to avoid shipping
bpftool where the completions are only partially working, from Quentin.
4) Fix applying the relocation to immediate load instructions in the
nfp JIT which were missing a shift, from Jakub.
5) Two fixes for the BPF kernel selftests: handle CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON=y
gracefully in test_bpf.ko module and mark them as FLAG_EXPECTED_FAIL
in this case; and explicitly delete the veth devices in the two tests
test_xdp_{meta,redirect}.sh before dismantling the netnses as when
selftests are run in batch mode, then workqueue to handle destruction
might not have finished yet and thus veth creation in next test under
same dev name would fail, from Yonghong.
6) Fix test_kmod.sh to check the test_bpf.ko module path before performing
an insmod, and fallback to modprobe. Especially the latter is useful
when having a device under test that has the modules installed instead,
from Naresh.

V3: More generic skipping of relo-section (suggested by Daniel)
If clang >= 4.0.1 is missing the option '-target bpf', it will cause
llc/llvm to create two ELF sections for "Exception Frames", with
section names '.eh_frame' and '.rel.eh_frame'.
The BPF ELF loader library libbpf fails when loading files with these
sections. The other in-kernel BPF ELF loader in samples/bpf/bpf_load.c,
handle this gracefully. And iproute2 loader also seems to work with these
"eh" sections.
The issue in libbpf is caused by bpf_object__elf_collect() skipping
some sections, and later when performing relocation it will be
pointing to a skipped section, as these sections cannot be found by
bpf_object__find_prog_by_idx() in bpf_object__collect_reloc().
This is a general issue that also occurs for other sections, like
debug sections which are also skipped and can have relo section.
As suggested by Daniel. To avoid keeping state about all skipped
sections, instead perform a direct qlookup in the ELF object. Lookup
the section that the relo-section points to and check if it contains
executable machine instructions (denoted by the sh_flags
SHF_EXECINSTR). Use this check to also skip irrelevant relo-sections.
Note, for samples/bpf/ the '-target bpf' parameter to clang cannot be used
due to incompatibility with asm embedded headers, that some of the samples
include. This is explained in more details by Yonghong Song in bpf_devel_QA.

V2: Moved program into selftests/bpf from tools/libbpf
This program can be used on its own for testing/debugging if a
BPF ELF-object file can be loaded with libbpf (from tools/lib/bpf).
If something is wrong with the ELF object, the program have
a --debug mode that will display the ELF sections and especially
the skipped sections. This allows for quickly identifying the
problematic ELF section number, which can be corrolated with the
readelf tool.
The program signal error via return codes, and also have
a --quiet mode, which is practical for use in scripts like
selftests/bpf.

While debugging a bpf ELF loading issue, I needed to correlate the
ELF section number with the failed relocation section reference.
Thus, add section numbers/index to the pr_debug.
In debug mode, also print section that were skipped. This helped
me identify that a section (.eh_frame) was skipped, and this was
the reason the relocation section (.rel.eh_frame) could not find
that section number.
The section numbers corresponds to the readelf tools Section Headers [Nr].

Al Viro discovered a bug in the removing of function probes where if it had
a '*' at the beginning, it would fail to find any matches. That is, because
it reset the glob search string to the the initial string with a "MATCH_END"
type, instead of skipping the wildcard "*" it included it, where it would
not match any functions because "*" was being treated as a normal character
and not a wildcard one.

If a probe is attached to a static function that is in multiple files with
the same name, removing it by name will remove all instances:
# grep jump_label_unlock set_ftrace_filter
jump_label_unlock:traceoff:unlimited
jump_label_unlock:traceoff:unlimited
# echo '!jump_label_unlock:traceoff' >> set_ftrace_filter
# grep jump_label_unlock set_ftrace_filter
#
But the loop in reset_ftrace_filter will try to remove multiple instances
multiple times. If this happens the second time will error and cause the
test to fail.
At each iteration of the loop, check to see if the probe being removed still
exists.

It seems that the type guessing feature for libbpf, based on the name of
the ELF section the program is located in, was inspired from
samples/bpf/prog_load.c, which was not used by any sample for loading
programs of certain types such as TC actions and classifiers, or
LWT-related types. As a consequence, libbpf is not able to guess the
type of such programs and to load them automatically if type is not
provided to the `bpf_load_prog()` function.
Add ELF section names associated to those eBPF program types so that
they can be loaded with e.g. bpftool as well.

test_kmod.sh reported false failure when module not present.
Check test_bpf.ko is present in the path before loading it.
Two cases to be addressed here,
In the development process of test_bpf.c unit testing will be done by
developers by using "insmod $SRC_TREE/lib/test_bpf.ko"
On the other hand testers run full tests by installing modules on device
under test (DUT) and followed by modprobe to insert the modules accordingly.

About 20% of the IDR users in the kernel want the allocated IDs to start
at 1. The implementation currently searches all the way down the left
hand side of the tree, finds no free ID other than ID 0, walks all the
way back up, and then all the way down again. This patch 'rebases' the
ID so we fill the entire radix tree, rather than leave a gap at 0.
Chris Wilson says: "I did the quick hack of allocating index 0 of the
idr and that eradicated idr_get_free() from being at the top of the
profiles for the many-object stress tests. This improvement will be
much appreciated."

It has no more users, so remove it. Move idr_alloc() back into idr.c,
move the guts of idr_alloc_cmn() into idr_alloc_u32(), remove the
wrappers around idr_get_free_cmn() and rename it to idr_get_free().
While there is now no interface to allocate IDs larger than a u32,
the IDR internals remain ready to handle a larger ID should a need arise.
These changes make it possible to provide the guarantee that, if the
nextid pointer points into the object, the object's ID will be initialised
before a concurrent lookup can find the object.
Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@microsoft.com>
One of the charming quirks of the idr_alloc() interface is that you
can pass a negative end and it will be interpreted as "maximum". Ensure
we don't break that.

The test was checking the wrong errno; ida_get_new_above() returns
EAGAIN, not ENOMEM on memory allocation failure. Double the number of
threads to increase the chance that we actually exercise this path
during the test suite (it was a bit sporadic before).

The tests at tools/testing/selftests/bpf can run in patch mode, e.g.,
make -C tools/testing/selftests/bpf run_tests
With the batch mode, I experimented intermittent test failure of
test_xdp_redirect.sh.
....
selftests: test_xdp_redirect [PASS]
selftests: test_xdp_redirect.sh [PASS]
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
selftests: test_xdp_meta [FAILED]
selftests: test_xdp_meta.sh [FAIL]
....
The following illustrates what caused the failure:
(1). test_xdp_redirect creates veth pairs (veth1,veth11) and
(veth2,veth22), and assign veth11 and veth22 to namespace
ns1 and ns2 respectively.
(2). at the end of test_xdp_redirect test, ns1 and ns2 are
deleted. During this process, the deletion of actual
namespace resources, including deletion of veth1{1} and veth2{2},
is put into a workqueue to be processed asynchronously.
(3). test_xdp_meta tries to create veth pair (veth1, veth2).
The previous veth deletions in step (2) have not finished yet,
and veth1 or veth2 may be still valid in the kernel, thus
causing the failure.
The fix is to explicitly delete the veth pair before test_xdp_redirect
exits. Only one end of veth needs deletion as the kernel will delete
the other end automatically. Also test_xdp_meta is also fixed in
similar manner to avoid future potential issues.

Committer note:
When we use -c or a period=N term in the event definition, then we don't
need to ask the kernel, for this event, via perf_event_attr.sample_type
|= PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD, to put the event period in each sample for this
event, as we know it already, it is in perf_event_attr.sample_period.

Pull spectre/meltdown updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The next round of updates related to melted spectrum:
- The initial set of spectre V1 mitigations:
- Array index speculation blocker and its usage for syscall,
fdtable and the n180211 driver.
- Speculation barrier and its usage in user access functions
- Make indirect calls in KVM speculation safe
- Blacklisting of known to be broken microcodes so IPBP/IBSR are not
touched.
- The initial IBPB support and its usage in context switch
- The exposure of the new speculation MSRs to KVM guests.
- A fix for a regression in x86/32 related to the cpu entry area
- Proper whitelisting for known to be safe CPUs from the mitigations.
- objtool fixes to deal proper with retpolines and alternatives
- Exclude __init functions from retpolines which speeds up the boot
process.
- Removal of the syscall64 fast path and related cleanups and
simplifications
- Removal of the unpatched paravirt mode which is yet another source
of indirect unproteced calls.
- A new and undisputed version of the module mismatch warning
- A couple of cleanup and correctness fixes all over the place
Yet another step towards full mitigation. There are a few things still
missing like the RBS underflow mitigation for Skylake and other small
details, but that's being worked on.
That said, I'm taking a belated christmas vacation for a week and hope
that everything is magically solved when I'm back on Feb 12th"
