<id>urn:sha1:4356e9f841f7fbb945521cef3577ba394c65f3fc</id>
<content type='text'>
We've had issues with gcc and 'asm goto' before, and we created a
'asm_volatile_goto()' macro for that in the past: see commits
3f0116c3238a ("compiler/gcc4: Add quirk for 'asm goto' miscompilation
bug") and a9f180345f53 ("compiler/gcc4: Make quirk for
asm_volatile_goto() unconditional").

Then, much later, we ended up removing the workaround in commit
43c249ea0b1e ("compiler-gcc.h: remove ancient workaround for gcc PR
58670") because we no longer supported building the kernel with the
affected gcc versions, but we left the macro uses around.

Now, Sean Christopherson reports a new version of a very similar
problem, which is fixed by re-applying that ancient workaround.  But the
problem in question is limited to only the 'asm goto with outputs'
cases, so instead of re-introducing the old workaround as-is, let's
rename and limit the workaround to just that much less common case.

It looks like there are at least two separate issues that all hit in
this area:

 (a) some versions of gcc don't mark the asm goto as 'volatile' when it
     has outputs:

        https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=98619
        https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110420

     which is easy to work around by just adding the 'volatile' by hand.

 (b) Internal compiler errors:

        https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110422

     which are worked around by adding the extra empty 'asm' as a
     barrier, as in the original workaround.

but the problem Sean sees may be a third thing since it involves bad
code generation (not an ICE) even with the manually added 'volatile'.

but the same old workaround works for this case, even if this feels a
bit like voodoo programming and may only be hiding the issue.

That automatically adds support for some new ioctls and remove a bunch

This ends up making the new binary to forget about the deprecated one,
so when used in an older system it will not be able to resolve those
codes to strings.

Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 "Add Namhyung Kim as tools/perf/ co-maintainer, we're taking turns
  processing patches, switching roles from perf-tools to perf-tools-next
  at each Linux release.

  Data profiling:

   - Associate samples that identify loads and stores with data
     structures. This uses events available on Intel, AMD and others and
     DWARF info:

       # To get memory access samples in kernel for 1 second (on Intel)
       $ perf mem record -a -K --ldlat=4 -- sleep 1

       # Similar for the AMD (but it requires 6.3+ kernel for BPF filters)
       $ perf mem record -a --filter 'mem_op == load || mem_op == store, ip &gt; 0x8000000000000000' -- sleep 1

     Then, amongst several modes of post processing, one can do things like:

       $ perf report -s type,typeoff --hierarchy --group --stdio
       ...
       #
       # Samples: 10K of events 'cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=4/P, cpu/mem-stores/P, dummy:u'

     This uses the existing annotate code, calling objdump to do the
     disassembly, with improvements to avoid having this take too long,
     but longer term a switch to a disassembler library, possibly
     reusing code in the kernel will be pursued.

     This is the initial implementation, please use it and report
     impressions and bugs. Make sure the kernel-debuginfo packages match
     the running kernel. The 'perf report' phase for non short perf.data
     files may take a while.

     There is a great article about it on LWN:

       https://lwn.net/Articles/955709/ - "Data-type profiling for perf"

     One last test I did while writing this text, on a AMD Ryzen 5950X,
     using a distro kernel, while doing a simple 'find /' on an
     otherwise idle system resulted in:

  perf top/report:

   - Don't ignore job control, allowing control+Z + bg to work.

   - Add s390 raw data interpretation for PAI (Processor Activity
     Instrumentation) counters.

  perf archive:

   - Add new option '--all' to pack perf.data with DSOs.

   - Add new option '--unpack' to expand tarballs.

  Initialization speedups:

   - Lazily initialize zstd streams to save memory when not using it.

   - Lazily allocate/size mmap event copy.

   - Lazy load kernel symbols in 'perf record'.

   - Be lazier in allocating lost samples buffer in 'perf record'.

   - Don't synthesize BPF events when disabled via the command line
     (perf record --no-bpf-event).

  Assorted improvements:

   - Show note on AMD systems that the :p, :pp, :ppp and :P are all the
     same, as IBS (Instruction Based Sampling) is used and it is
     inherentely precise, not having levels of precision like in Intel
     systems.

   - When 'cycles' isn't available, fall back to the "task-clock" event
     when not system wide, not to 'cpu-clock'.

   - Add --debug-file option to redirect debug output, e.g.:

       $ perf --debug-file /tmp/perf.log record -v true

   - Shrink 'struct map' to under one cacheline by avoiding function
     pointers for selecting if addresses are identity or DSO relative,
     and using just a byte for some boolean struct members.

   - Resolve the arch specific strerrno just once to use in
     perf_env__arch_strerrno().

   - Reduce memory for recording PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES event.

  Assorted fixes:

   - Fix the default 'perf top' usage on Intel hybrid systems, now it
     starts with a browser showing the number of samples for Efficiency
     (cpu_atom/cycles/P) and Performance (cpu_core/cycles/P). This
     behaviour is similar on ARM64, with its respective set of
     big.LITTLE processors.

   - Fix segfault on build_mem_topology() error path.

   - Fix 'perf mem' error on hybrid related to availability of mem event
     in a PMU.

   - Fix missing reference count gets (map, maps) in the db-export code.

   - Avoid recursively taking env-&gt;bpf_progs.lock in the 'perf_env'
     code.

   - Use the newly introduced maps__for_each_map() to add missing
     locking around iteration of 'struct map' entries.

   - Parse NOTE segments until the build id is found, don't stop on the
     first one, ELF files may have several such NOTE segments.

   - Remove 'egrep' usage, its deprecated, use 'grep -E' instead.

   - Warn first about missing libelf, not libbpf, that depends on
     libelf.

   - Use alternative to 'find ... -printf' as this isn't supported in
     busybox.

   - Address python 3.6 DeprecationWarning for string scapes.

   - Fix memory leak in uniq() in libsubcmd.

   - Fix man page formatting for 'perf lock'

   - Fix some spelling mistakes.

  perf tests:

   - Fail shell tests that needs some symbol in perf itself if it is
     stripped. These tests check if a symbol is resolved, if some hot
     function is indeed detected by profiling, etc.

   - The 'perf test sigtrap' test is currently failing on PREEMPT_RT,
     skip it if sleeping spinlocks are detected (using BTF) and point to
     the mailing list discussion about it. This test is also being
     skipped on several architectures (powerpc, s390x, arm and aarch64)
     due to other pending issues with intruction breakpoints.

   - Adjust test case perf record offcpu profiling tests for s390.

   - Fix 'Setup struct perf_event_attr' fails on s390 on z/VM guest,
     addressing issues caused by the fallback from cycles to task-clock
     done in this release.

   - Fix mask for VG register in the user-regs test.

   - Use shellcheck on 'perf test' shell scripts automatically to make
     sure changes don't introduce things it flags as problematic.

   - Add option to change objdump binary and allow it to be set via
     'perf config'.

   - Add basic 'perf script', 'perf list --json" and 'perf diff' tests.

   - Basic branch counter support.

   - Make DSO tests a suite rather than individual.

   - Remove atomics from test_loop to avoid test failures.

   - Fix call chain match on powerpc for the record+probe_libc_inet_pton
     test.

   - Improve Intel hybrid tests.

  Vendor event files (JSON):

  powerpc:

   - Update datasource event name to fix duplicate events on IBM's
     Power10.

   - Add PVN for HX-C2000 CPU with Power8 Architecture.

  Intel:

   - Alderlake/rocketlake metric fixes.

   - Update emeraldrapids events to v1.02.

   - Update icelakex events to v1.23.

   - Update sapphirerapids events to v1.17.

   - Add skx, clx, icx and spr upi bandwidth metric.

  AMD:

   - Add Zen 4 memory controller events.

  RISC-V:

   - Add StarFive Dubhe-80 and Dubhe-90 JSON files.
       https://www.starfivetech.com/en/site/cpu-u

   - Add T-HEAD C9xx JSON file.
       https://github.com/riscv-software-src/opensbi/blob/master/docs/platform/thead-c9xx.md

  ARM64:

   - Remove UTF-8 characters from cmn.json, that were causing build
     failure in some distros.

   - Add core PMU events and metrics for Ampere One X.

   - Rename Ampere One's BPU_FLUSH_MEM_FAULT to GPC_FLUSH_MEM_FAULT

  libperf:

   - Rename several perf_cpu_map constructor names to clarify what they
     really do.

   - Ditto for some other methods, coping with some issues in their
     semantics, like perf_cpu_map__empty() -&gt;
     perf_cpu_map__has_any_cpu_or_is_empty().

   - Document perf_cpu_map__nr()'s behavior

  perf stat:

   - Exit if parse groups fails.

   - Combine the -A/--no-aggr and --no-merge options.

   - Fix help message for --metric-no-threshold option.

  Hardware tracing:

  ARM64 CoreSight:

   - Bump minimum OpenCSD version to ensure a bugfix is present.

   - Add 'T' itrace option for timestamp trace

   - Set start vm addr of exectable file to 0 and don't ignore first
     sample on the arm-cs-trace-disasm.py 'perf script'"

  subformat PCM bits and a few ASoC core changes to support N:M
  mappings, while the most of remaining changes are driver-specific.

  Core:
   - API extensions for properly limiting PCM format bits via subformat
   - Enhanced support for N:M CPU:CODEC mappings in the core and in
     audio-graph-card2

  ASoC:
   - Lots of SOF updates: fallback support to older IPC versions,
     notification on control changes with IPC4. Also supports for ACPI
     parse for the ES83xx driver that reduces quirks.
   - Device tree support for describing parts of the card which can be
     active over suspend (for very low power playback or wake word use
     cases)
   - Support for more AMD and Intel systems, NXP i.MX8m MICFIL, Qualcomm
     SM8250, SM8550, SM8650 and X1E80100
   - Drop of Freescale MPC8610 code that is no longer supported

  HD-audio:
   - More CS35L41 codec extensions for Dell, HP and Lenovo models
   - TAS2781 codec extensions for Lenovo and co
   - New PCM subformat supports

  Others:
   - More enhancement for Scarlett2 USB mixer support
   - Various kselftest fixes"
