2009-05-30perf_counter tools: Generate per command manpages (and pdf/html, etc.)Ingo Molnar
Import Git's nice .txt => {man/html/pdf} generation machinery. Fix various errors in the Documentation/perf*.txt description as well. Also fix a bug in builtin-help: we'd map 'perf help top' to 'perftop' if only the 'perf' binary is in the default PATH - confusing the manpage logic. I dont fully understand why Git did it this way - but i suppose it's a migration artifact from their migration from standalone git-xyz commands to 'git xyz' commands. The perf tools were always using the modern form so it's not an issue there.

2009-05-29perf_counter: Don't swap contexts containing locked mutexPaul Mackerras
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.

2009-05-28perf_counter: Fix race in attaching counters to tasks and exitingPaul Mackerras
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.
