Now that leads to interesting discoveries :-) Becky, can you read all the way and let me know what you think ? So, trying to walk the user stack directly will potentially cause page faults if it's done by direct access. So if you're going to do it in a spot where you can't afford it, you need to pagefault_disable() I suppose. I think the problem with our existing code is that it's missing those around __get_user_inatomic(). In fact, arguably, we don't want the hash code from modifying the hash either (or even hashing things in). Our 64-bit code handles it today in perf_callchain.c in a way that involves pretty much duplicating the functionality of __get_user_pages_fast() as used by x86 (see below), but as a fallback from a direct access which misses the pagefault_disable() as well. I think it comes from an old assumption that this would always be called from an nmi, and the explicit tracepoints broke that assumption. In fact we probably want to bump the NMI count, not just the IRQ count as pagefault_disable() does, to make sure we prevent hashing. x86 does things differently, using __get_user_pages_fast() (a variant of get_user_page_fast() that doesn't fallback to normal get_user_pages()). Now, we could do the same (use __gup_fast too), but I can see a potential issue with ppc 32-bit platforms that have 64-bit PTEs, since we could end up GUP'ing in the middle of the two accesses. Becky: I think gup_fast is generally broken on 32-bit with 64-bit PTE because of that, the problem isn't specific to perf backtraces, I'll propose a solution further down. Now, on x86, there is a similar problem with PAE, which is handled by - having gup disable IRQs - rely on the fact that to change from a valid value to another valid value, the PTE will first get invalidated, which requires an IPI and thus will be blocked by our interrupts being off We do the first part, but the second part will break if we use HW TLB invalidation broadcast (yet another reason why those are bad, I think I will write a blog entry about it one of these days). I think we can work around this while keeping our broadcast TLB invalidations by having the invalidation code also increment a global generation count (using the existing lock used by the invalidation code, all 32-bit platforms have such a lock). >From there, gup_fast can be changed to, with proper ordering, check the generation count around the loading of the PTE and loop if it has changed, kind-of a seqlock. We also need the NMI count bump if we are going to try to keep the attempt at doing a direct access first for perfs. Becky, do you feel like giving that a shot or should I find another victim ? (Or even do it myself ... ) :-) Cheers, Ben. > Thanks, > David > > > > > []rb_erase+0x1b4/0x3e8 > > []__dequeue_entity+0x50/0xe8 > > []set_next_entity+0x178/0x1bc > > []pick_next_task_fair+0xb0/0x118 > > []schedule+0x500/0x614 > > []rwsem_down_failed_common+0xf0/0x264 > > []rwsem_down_read_failed+0x34/0x54 > > []down_read+0x3c/0x54 > > []do_page_fault+0x114/0x5e8 > > []handle_page_fault+0xc/0x80 > > []perf_callchain+0x224/0x31c > > []perf_prepare_sample+0x240/0x2fc > > []__perf_event_overflow+0x280/0x398 > > []perf_swevent_overflow+0x9c/0x10c > > []perf_swevent_ctx_event+0x1d0/0x230 > > []do_perf_sw_event+0x84/0xe4 > > []perf_sw_event_context_switch+0x150/0x1b4 > > []perf_event_task_sched_out+0x44/0x2d4 > > []schedule+0x2c0/0x614 > > []__cond_resched+0x34/0x90 > > []_cond_resched+0x4c/0x68 > > []move_page_tables+0xb0/0x418 > > []setup_arg_pages+0x184/0x2a0 > > []load_elf_binary+0x394/0x1208 > > []search_binary_handler+0xe0/0x2c4 > > []do_execve+0x1bc/0x268 > > []sys_execve+0x84/0xc8 > > []ret_from_syscall+0x0/0x3c > > > > Thanks, > > David > ___ > Linuxppc

I talked to Ben about this last week and he pointed me at
pagefault_disable/enable. Untested patch below.

We need to disable pagefaults when reading the stack otherwise
we can lock up trying to take the mmap_sem when the code we are
profiling already has a write lock taken.
This will not happen for hardware events, but could for software
events.

Odd. Can you try loading a plain vmlinux instead ? (feel free to strip it). yaboot 1.3.13 might not be the best one to load a real ELF ... On my side I'll dig one of my old powerbooks and see if I can reproduce (I generally tend to netboot the zImage directly, but it needs to be < 4M for that to work due to Apple OF limitations, or use yaboot with plan vmlinux which exercises a different code path within yaboot).

The panic is not seen on x86 based systems. Can anyone confirm whether page faults while walking the stack are normal for PPC? We really want to use the context switch event with callchains and need to understand whether this behavior is normal. Of course if it is normal, a way to address the problem without a panic will be needed.

I reduced the image size, so that it's way less than the 2.6.39 kernel size (old is 2.6.39. a is 3.0) -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5.6M Jul 24 12:16 /boot/linux.a -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6.3M Jul 23 20:50 /boot/linux.old But that didn't help. :( I'm currently trying to bisect it, but that turns out to be hard due to various compile issues and stuff like that... -- Greetings, Michael. ___ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
