Subject: [PATCH 18/30] x86, kaiser: map virtually-addressed performance monitoring buffers
Date: Wed, 08 Nov 2017 11:47:20 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171108194720.0ADD17E2@viggo.jf.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171108194646.907A1942@viggo.jf.intel.com>


From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com>
[Dave] Add explicit _PAGE_GLOBAL

The BTS and PEBS buffers both have their virtual addresses programmed
into the hardware.  This means that we have to access them via the page
tables.  The times that the hardware accesses these are entirely
dependent on how the performance monitoring hardware events are set up.
In other words, we have no idea when we might need to access these
buffers.

Avoid perf crashes: place debug_store in the user-mapped per-cpu area
instead of allocating, and use page allocator plus kaiser_add_mapping()
to keep the BTS and PEBS buffers user-mapped (that is, present in the
user mapping, though visible only to kernel and hardware).  The PEBS
fixup buffer does not need this treatment.

The need for a user-mapped struct debug_store showed up before doing
any conscious perf testing: in a couple of kernel paging oopses on
Westmere, implicating the debug_store offset of the per-cpu area.
