[PATCH 4.1 33/65] kaiser: fix perf crashes

From: Pavel Tatashin
Date: Mon Mar 05 2018 - 19:35:34 EST


From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>

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.
