Subject: [PATCH] perf/x86: Fix overlap counter scheduling bug
Date: Tue, 1 Nov 2016 16:44:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1478015068-14052-1-git-send-email-jolsa@kernel.org> (raw)
My fuzzer testing hits following warning in the counter scheduling code:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/events/core.c:718 perf_assign_events+0x2ae/0x2c0
Call Trace:
<IRQ>
dump_stack+0x68/0x93
__warn+0xcb/0xf0
warn_slowpath_null+0x1d/0x20
perf_assign_events+0x2ae/0x2c0
uncore_assign_events+0x1a7/0x250 [intel_uncore]
uncore_pmu_event_add+0x7a/0x3c0 [intel_uncore]
event_sched_in.isra.104+0xf6/0x2e0
group_sched_in+0x6e/0x190
...
The reason is that the counter scheduling code assumes
overlap constraints with mask weight < SCHED_STATES_MAX.
This assumption is broken with uncore cbox constraint
added for snbep in:
3b19e4c98c03 perf/x86: Fix event constraint for SandyBridge-EP C-Box
It's also easily triggered by running following perf command
on snbep box:
# perf stat -e 'uncore_cbox_0/event=0x1f/,uncore_cbox_0/event=0x1f/,uncore_cbox_0/event=0x1f/' -a
Fixing this by increasing the SCHED_STATES_MAX to 3
and adding build check for EVENT_CONSTRAINT_OVERLAP
macro.
