So what I suspect; but I'm in zombie mode today it seems; is that while
I initially thought that it was impossible for ctx to change when
refcount dropped to 0, I now suspect its possible.
Note that until perf_remove_from_context() the event is still active and
visible on the lists. So a concurrent sys_perf_event_open() from another
task into this task can race.

I think the below should cure this; if we install a group leader it
will iterate the (still intact) group list and find its siblings and
try and install those too -- even though those still have the old
event->ctx -- in the new ctx.
Upon installing the first group sibling we'd try and schedule out the
group and trigger the above warn.
Fix this by installing the group leader last, installing siblings
would have no effect, they're not reachable through the group lists
and therefore we don't schedule them.
Also delay resetting the state until we're absolutely sure the events
are quiescent.

There have been a few reported issues wrt. the lack of locking around
changing event->ctx. This patch tries to address those.
It avoids the whole rwsem thing; and while it appears to work, please
give it some thought in review.
What I did fail at is sensible runtime checks on the use of
event->ctx, the RCU use makes it very hard.

The fix from 9fc81d8742 ("perf: Fix events installation during
moving group") was incomplete in that it failed to recognise that
creating a group with events for different CPUs is semantically
broken -- they cannot be co-scheduled.
Furthermore, it leads to real breakage where, when we create an event
for CPU Y and then migrate it to form a group on CPU X, the code gets
confused where the counter is programmed -- triggered in practice
as well by me via the perf fuzzer.
Fix this by tightening the rules for creating groups. Only allow
grouping of counters that can be co-scheduled in the same context.
This means for the same task and/or the same cpu.

Both Linus (most recent) and Steve (a while ago) reported that perf
related callbacks have massive stack bloat.
The problem is that software events need a pt_regs in order to
properly report the event location and unwind stack. And because we
could not assume one was present we allocated one on stack and filled
it with minimal bits required for operation.
Now, pt_regs is quite large, so this is undesirable. Furthermore it
turns out that most sites actually have a pt_regs pointer available,
making this even more onerous, as the stack space is pointless waste.
This patch addresses the problem by observing that software events
have well defined nesting semantics, therefore we can use static
per-cpu storage instead of on-stack.
Linus made the further observation that all but the scheduler callers
of perf_sw_event() have a pt_regs available, so we change the regular
perf_sw_event() to require a valid pt_regs (where it used to be
optional) and add perf_sw_event_sched() for the scheduler.
We have a scheduler specific call instead of a more generic _noregs()
like construct because we can assume non-recursion from the scheduler
and thereby simplify the code further (_noregs would have to put the
recursion context call inline in order to assertain which __perf_regs
element to use).
One last note on the implementation of perf_trace_buf_prepare(); we
allow .regs = NULL for those cases where we already have a pt_regs
pointer available and do not need another.

On x86_64, at least, task_pt_regs may be only partially initialized
in many contexts, so x86_64 should not use it without extra care
from interrupt context, let alone NMI context.
This will allow x86_64 to override the logic and will supply some
scratch space to use to make a cleaner copy of user regs.

The i_mmap_mutex is a close cousin of the anon vma lock, both protecting
similar data, one for file backed pages and the other for anon memory. To
this end, this lock can also be a rwsem. In addition, there are some
important opportunities to share the lock when there are no tree
modifications.
This conversion is straightforward. For now, all users take the write
lock.

We allow PMU driver to change the cpu on which the event
should be installed to. This happened in patch:
e2d37cd213 ("perf: Allow the PMU driver to choose the CPU on which to install events")
This patch also forces all the group members to follow
the currently opened events cpu if the group happened
to be moved.
This and the change of event->cpu in perf_install_in_context()
function introduced in:
0cda4c0231 ("perf: Introduce perf_pmu_migrate_context()")
forces group members to change their event->cpu,
if the currently-opened-event's PMU changed the cpu
and there is a group move.
Above behaviour causes problem for breakpoint events,
which uses event->cpu to touch cpu specific data for
breakpoints accounting. By changing event->cpu, some
breakpoints slots were wrongly accounted for given
cpu.
Vinces's perf fuzzer hit this issue and caused following
WARN on my setup:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 20214 at arch/x86/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c:119 arch_install_hw_breakpoint+0x142/0x150()

When a CPU hotplugged out, we call perf_remove_from_context() (via
perf_event_exit_cpu()) to rip each CPU-bound event out of its PMU's cpu
context, but leave siblings grouped together. Freeing of these events is
left to the mercy of the usual refcounting.
When a CPU-bound event's refcount drops to zero we cross-call to
__perf_remove_from_context() to clean it up, detaching grouped siblings.
This works when the relevant CPU is online, but will fail if the CPU is
currently offline, and we won't detach the event from its siblings
before freeing the event, leaving the sibling list corrupt. If the
sibling list is later walked (e.g. because the CPU cam online again
before a remaining sibling's refcount drops to zero), we will walk the
now corrupted siblings list, potentially dereferencing garbage values.
Given that the events should never be scheduled again (as we removed
them from their context), we can simply detatch siblings when the CPU
goes down in the first place. If the CPU comes back online, the
redundant call to __perf_remove_from_context() is safe.

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
"Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many
years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other
inconsistent operations.
This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().
Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().
This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up
with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
remove the obsolete accessors"

We saw a kernel soft lockup in perf_remove_from_context(),
it looks like the `perf` process, when exiting, could not go
out of the retry loop. Meanwhile, the target process was forking
a child. So either the target process should execute the smp
function call to deactive the event (if it was running) or it should
do a context switch which deactives the event.
It seems we optimize out a context switch in perf_event_context_sched_out(),
and what's more important, we still test an obsolete task pointer when
retrying, so no one actually would deactive that event in this situation.
Fix it directly by reloading the task pointer in perf_remove_from_context().
This should cure the above soft lockup.

When running a 32-bit userspace on a 64-bit kernel (eg. i386
application on x86_64 kernel or 32-bit arm userspace on arm64
kernel) some of the perf ioctls must be treated with special
care, as they have a pointer size encoded in the command.
For example, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID in 32-bit world will be encoded
as 0x80042407, but 64-bit kernel will expect 0x80082407. In
result the ioctl will fail returning -ENOTTY.
This patch solves the problem by adding code fixing up the
size as compat_ioctl file operation.

One should first enqueue to the waitqueue and then check for the
condition. If the condition gets true after mutex_unlock() but before
poll_wait() then we lose it and would have wait for another wakeup.
This has been like this since v2.6.31-rc1 commit c7138f37f9 ("perf_counter:
fix perf_poll()"). Before that it was slightly worse. I guess we get enough
wakeups so if we miss here one it doesn't really matter. It is still a

In cases when the owner task exits before the workload and the
workload made some forks, all the events stay in until the last
workload process exits. Thats' because each child event holds
parent reference.
We want to release all children events once the parent is gone,
because at that time there's no process to read them anyway, so
they're just eating resources.
This removal races with process exit, which removes all events
and fork, which clone events. To be clear of those two, adding
work queue to remove orphaned child for context in case such
event is detected.
Using delayed work queue (with delay == 1), because we queue this
work under perf scheduler callbacks. Normal work queue tries to wake
up the queue process, which deadlocks on rq->lock in this place.
Also preventing clones from abandoned parent event.
