tools/Makefile: remove cgroup target The tools/cgroup directory no longer contains a Makefile. This patch updates the top-level tools/Makefile to remove references to building and installing cgroup components. This change reflects the current structure of the tools directory and fixes the build failure when building tools in the top-level directory. linux/tools$ make cgroup DESCEND cgroup make[1]: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.

tools/nolibc: make the default target build the headers The help in "make -C tools" enumerates nolibc as a valid target so we must at least make it do something. Let's make it do the equivalent of "make headers" in that it will prepare a sysroot with the arch's headers, but will not install the kernel's headers.

tools/thermal: Add thermal daemon skeleton This change provides a simple daemon skeleton. It is an example of how to use the thermal library which wraps all the complex code related to the netlink and transforms it into a callback oriented code. The goal of this skeleton is to give a base brick for anyone interested in writing its own thermal engine or as an example to rely on to write its own thermal monitoring implementation. In the future, it will evolve with more features and hopefully more logic.

tools/lib/lockdep: drop liblockdep TL;DR: While a tool like liblockdep is useful, it probably doesn't belong within the kernel tree. liblockdep attempts to reuse kernel code both directly (by directly building the kernel's lockdep code) as well as indirectly (by using sanitized headers). This makes liblockdep an integral part of the kernel. It also makes liblockdep quite unique: while other userspace code might use sanitized headers, it generally doesn't attempt to use kernel code directly which means that changes on the kernel side of things don't affect (and break) it directly. All our workflows and tooling around liblockdep don't support this uniqueness. Changes that go into the kernel code aren't validated to not break in-tree userspace code. liblockdep ended up being very fragile, breaking over and over, to the point that living in the same tree as the lockdep code lost most of it's value. liblockdep should continue living in an external tree, syncing with the kernel often, in a controllable way.

tracing/tools: Add the latency-collector to tools directory This is a tool that is intended to work around the fact that the preemptoff, irqsoff, and preemptirqsoff tracers only work in overwrite mode. The idea is to act randomly in such a way that we do not systematically lose any latencies, so that if enough testing is done, all latencies will be captured. If the same burst of latencies is repeated, then sooner or later we will have captured all the latencies. It also works with the wakeup_dl, wakeup_rt, and wakeup tracers. However, in that case it is probably not useful to use the random sleep functionality. The reason why it may be desirable to catch all latencies with a long test campaign is that for some organizations, it's necessary to test the kernel in the field and not practical for developers to work iteratively with field testers. Because of cost and project schedules it is not possible to start a new test campaign every time a latency problem has been fixed. It uses inotify to detect changes to /sys/kernel/tracing/trace. When a latency is detected, it will either sleep or print immediately, depending on a function that act as an unfair coin toss. If immediate print is chosen, it means that we open /sys/kernel/tracing/trace and thereby cause a blackout period that will hide any subsequent latencies. If sleep is chosen, it means that we wait before opening /sys/kernel/tracing/trace, by default for 1000 ms, to see if there is another latency during this period. If there is, then we will lose the previous latency. The coin will be tossed again with a different probability, and we will either print the new latency, or possibly a subsequent one. The probability for the unfair coin toss is chosen so that there is equal probability to obtain any of the latencies in a burst. However, this assumes that we make an assumption of how many latencies there can be. By default the program assumes that there are no more than 2 latencies in a burst, the probability of immediate printout will be: 1/2 and 1 Thus, the probability of getting each of the two latencies will be 1/2. If we ever find that there is more than one latency in a series, meaning that we reach the probability of 1, then the table will be expanded to: 1/3, 1/2, and 1 Thus, we assume that there are no more than three latencies and each with a probability of 1/3 of being captured. If the probability of 1 is reached in the new table, that is we see more than two closely occurring latencies, then the table will again be extended, and so on. On my systems, it seems like this scheme works fairly well, as long as the latencies we trace are long enough, 300 us seems to be enough. This userspace program receive the inotify event at the end of a latency, and it has time until the end of the next latency to react, that is to open /sys/kernel/tracing/trace. Thus, if we trace latencies that are >300 us, then we have at least 300 us to react. The minimum latency will of course not be 300 us on all systems, it will depend on the hardware, kernel version, workload and configuration. Example usage: In one shell, give the following command: sudo latency-collector -rvv -t preemptirqsoff -s 2000 -a 3 This will trace latencies > 2000us with the preemptirqsoff tracer, using random sleep with maximum verbosity, with a probability table initialized to a size of 3. In another shell, generate a few bursts of latencies: root@host:~# modprobe preemptirq_delay_test delay=3000 test_mode=alternate burst_size=3 root@host:~# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/preemptirq_delay_test/trigger root@host:~# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/preemptirq_delay_test/trigger root@host:~# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/preemptirq_delay_test/trigger root@host:~# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/preemptirq_delay_test/trigger If all goes well, you should be getting stack traces that shows all the different latencies, i.e. you should see all the three functions preemptirqtest_0, preemptirqtest_1, preemptirqtest_2 in the stack traces.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

objtool: Add tool to perform compile-time stack metadata validation This adds a host tool named objtool which has a "check" subcommand which analyzes .o files to ensure the validity of stack metadata. It enforces a set of rules on asm code and C inline assembly code so that stack traces can be reliable. For each function, it recursively follows all possible code paths and validates the correct frame pointer state at each instruction. It also follows code paths involving kernel special sections, like .altinstructions, __jump_table, and __ex_table, which can add alternative execution paths to a given instruction (or set of instructions). Similarly, it knows how to follow switch statements, for which gcc sometimes uses jump tables. Here are some of the benefits of validating stack metadata: a) More reliable stack traces for frame pointer enabled kernels Frame pointers are used for debugging purposes. They allow runtime code and debug tools to be able to walk the stack to determine the chain of function call sites that led to the currently executing code. For some architectures, frame pointers are enabled by CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER. For some other architectures they may be required by the ABI (sometimes referred to as "backchain pointers"). For C code, gcc automatically generates instructions for setting up frame pointers when the -fno-omit-frame-pointer option is used. But for asm code, the frame setup instructions have to be written by hand, which most people don't do. So the end result is that CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is honored for C code but not for most asm code. For stack traces based on frame pointers to be reliable, all functions which call other functions must first create a stack frame and update the frame pointer. If a first function doesn't properly create a stack frame before calling a second function, the *caller* of the first function will be skipped on the stack trace. For example, consider the following example backtrace with frame pointers enabled: [<ffffffff81812584>] dump_stack+0x4b/0x63 [<ffffffff812d6dc2>] cmdline_proc_show+0x12/0x30 [<ffffffff8127f568>] seq_read+0x108/0x3e0 [<ffffffff812cce62>] proc_reg_read+0x42/0x70 [<ffffffff81256197>] __vfs_read+0x37/0x100 [<ffffffff81256b16>] vfs_read+0x86/0x130 [<ffffffff81257898>] SyS_read+0x58/0xd0 [<ffffffff8181c1f2>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x76 It correctly shows that the caller of cmdline_proc_show() is seq_read(). If we remove the frame pointer logic from cmdline_proc_show() by replacing the frame pointer related instructions with nops, here's what it looks like instead: [<ffffffff81812584>] dump_stack+0x4b/0x63 [<ffffffff812d6dc2>] cmdline_proc_show+0x12/0x30 [<ffffffff812cce62>] proc_reg_read+0x42/0x70 [<ffffffff81256197>] __vfs_read+0x37/0x100 [<ffffffff81256b16>] vfs_read+0x86/0x130 [<ffffffff81257898>] SyS_read+0x58/0xd0 [<ffffffff8181c1f2>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x76 Notice that cmdline_proc_show()'s caller, seq_read(), has been skipped. Instead the stack trace seems to show that cmdline_proc_show() was called by proc_reg_read(). The benefit of "objtool check" here is that because it ensures that *all* functions honor CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, no functions will ever[*] be skipped on a stack trace. [*] unless an interrupt or exception has occurred at the very beginning of a function before the stack frame has been created, or at the very end of the function after the stack frame has been destroyed. This is an inherent limitation of frame pointers. b) 100% reliable stack traces for DWARF enabled kernels This is not yet implemented. For more details about what is planned, see tools/objtool/Documentation/stack-validation.txt. c) Higher live patching compatibility rate This is not yet implemented. For more details about what is planned, see tools/objtool/Documentation/stack-validation.txt. To achieve the validation, "objtool check" enforces the following rules: 1. Each callable function must be annotated as such with the ELF function type. In asm code, this is typically done using the ENTRY/ENDPROC macros. If objtool finds a return instruction outside of a function, it flags an error since that usually indicates callable code which should be annotated accordingly. This rule is needed so that objtool can properly identify each callable function in order to analyze its stack metadata. 2. Conversely, each section of code which is *not* callable should *not* be annotated as an ELF function. The ENDPROC macro shouldn't be used in this case. This rule is needed so that objtool can ignore non-callable code. Such code doesn't have to follow any of the other rules. 3. Each callable function which calls another function must have the correct frame pointer logic, if required by CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER or the architecture's back chain rules. This can by done in asm code with the FRAME_BEGIN/FRAME_END macros. This rule ensures that frame pointer based stack traces will work as designed. If function A doesn't create a stack frame before calling function B, the _caller_ of function A will be skipped on the stack trace. 4. Dynamic jumps and jumps to undefined symbols are only allowed if: a) the jump is part of a switch statement; or b) the jump matches sibling call semantics and the frame pointer has the same value it had on function entry. This rule is needed so that objtool can reliably analyze all of a function's code paths. If a function jumps to code in another file, and it's not a sibling call, objtool has no way to follow the jump because it only analyzes a single file at a time. 5. A callable function may not execute kernel entry/exit instructions. The only code which needs such instructions is kernel entry code, which shouldn't be be in callable functions anyway. This rule is just a sanity check to ensure that callable functions return normally. It currently only supports x86_64. I tried to make the code generic so that support for other architectures can hopefully be plugged in relatively easily. On my Lenovo laptop with a i7-4810MQ 4-core/8-thread CPU, building the kernel with objtool checking every .o file adds about three seconds of total build time. It hasn't been optimized for performance yet, so there are probably some opportunities for better build performance.

tools/thermal: Introduce tmon, a tool for thermal subsystem Increasingly, Linux is running on thermally constrained devices. The simple thermal relationship between processor and fan has become past for modern computers. As hardware vendors cope with the thermal constraints on their products, more sensors are added, new cooling capabilities are introduced. The complexity of the thermal relationship can grow exponentially among cooling devices, zones, sensors, and trip points. They can also change dynamically. To expose such relationship to the userspace, Linux generic thermal layer introduced sysfs entry at /sys/class/thermal with a matrix of symbolic links, trip point bindings, and device instances. To traverse such matrix by hand is not a trivial task. Testing is also difficult in that thermal conditions are often exception cases that hard to reach in normal operations. TMON is conceived as a tool to help visualize, tune, and test the complex thermal subsystem. Signed-off-by: Jacob Pan <jacob.jun.pan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com>

filter: add minimal BPF JIT image disassembler This is a minimal stand-alone user space helper, that allows for debugging or verification of emitted BPF JIT images. This is in particular useful for emitted opcode debugging, since minor bugs in the JIT compiler can be fatal. The disassembler is architecture generic and uses libopcodes and libbfd. How to get to the disassembly, example: 1) `echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable` 2) Load a BPF filter (e.g. `tcpdump -p -n -s 0 -i eth1 host 192.168.20.0/24`) 3) Run e.g. `bpf_jit_disasm -o` to disassemble the most recent JIT code output `bpf_jit_disasm -o` will display the related opcodes to a particular instruction as well. Example for x86_64: $ ./bpf_jit_disasm 94 bytes emitted from JIT compiler (pass:3, flen:9) ffffffffa0356000 + <x>: 0: push %rbp 1: mov %rsp,%rbp 4: sub $0x60,%rsp 8: mov %rbx,-0x8(%rbp) c: mov 0x68(%rdi),%r9d 10: sub 0x6c(%rdi),%r9d 14: mov 0xe0(%rdi),%r8 1b: mov $0xc,%esi 20: callq 0xffffffffe0d01b71 25: cmp $0x86dd,%eax 2a: jne 0x000000000000003d 2c: mov $0x14,%esi 31: callq 0xffffffffe0d01b8d 36: cmp $0x6,%eax [...] 5c: leaveq 5d: retq $ ./bpf_jit_disasm -o 94 bytes emitted from JIT compiler (pass:3, flen:9) ffffffffa0356000 + <x>: 0: push %rbp 55 1: mov %rsp,%rbp 48 89 e5 4: sub $0x60,%rsp 48 83 ec 60 8: mov %rbx,-0x8(%rbp) 48 89 5d f8 c: mov 0x68(%rdi),%r9d 44 8b 4f 68 10: sub 0x6c(%rdi),%r9d 44 2b 4f 6c [...] 5c: leaveq c9 5d: retq c3 Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

tools: Define a Makefile function to do subdir processing Define a Makefile function that can be called with $(call ...) to wrap the subdir make invocations in tools/Makefile. This will allow us in the next patch to insert bits in there to honour O= flags when called from the top-level Makefile.

tools: Connect to the kernel build system Now you can do $ make tools/<toolname> from the toplevel kernel directory and have the respective tool built. If you want to build and install it, do $ make tools/<toolname>_install $ make tools/<toolname>_clean should clean the respective tool directories. If you want to clean all in tools, simply do $ make tools/clean Also, if you want to get what the possible targets are, simply calling $ make tools/ should give you the short help. $ make tools/install installs all tools, of course. Doh.

tools: Add a help target ... and make it the default one so that calling 'make' without arguments in the tools/ directory gives you the possible targets to build along with a short description of what they are.
