[PATCH V3 1/7] perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix discovery unit lookup for multi-die systems

[Zide Chen]

In uncore_find_add_unit(), PMON units with the same unit ID may be
added to the uncore discovery RB-tree for different dies. These units
are distinguished by node->die.

However, intel_generic_uncore_box_ctl() uses a fixed die ID of -1 when
looking up the discovery unit, which may retrieve the wrong node on
multi-die systems.

Use box->dieid instead so the correct discovery unit is selected.

No functional issue has been observed so far because currently supported
platforms happen to use the same unit control register for such units.

Remove WARN_ON_ONCE() because with the above change a NULL unit can be
expected, e.g. when a CPU die is offline during uncore enumeration and
the unit is not added to the RB-tree. In this case,
intel_uncore_find_discovery_unit() returns NULL once the die becomes
online, and it is expected that the PMU box is not functional for that
die.

- [Medium] The commit message inaccurately claims that a NULL unit can be expected when a CPU die is offline, justifying the removal of a valid WARN_ON_ONCE assertion, but the code path is structurally unreachable for missing units.

perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix discovery unit lookup for multi-die systems

This commit fixes an issue where PMON units with the same unit ID may
retrieve the wrong node on multi-die systems by using box->dieid. It
also removes a WARN_ON_ONCE() under the assumption that a NULL unit
can be expected during CPU die offline/online scenarios.

[Severity: Medium]
Is the scenario described in the commit message actually possible in the
current codebase?

When a CPU die comes online, uncore_event_cpu_online() invokes
uncore_change_type_ctx(), which relies on uncore_die_has_box() to check
for the unit. If the unit is missing from the RB-tree, uncore_die_has_box()
returns false, and the box cpu assignment is skipped:

arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.c:uncore_change_type_ctx() {
    ...
    if (uncore_die_has_box(type, die, pmu->pmu_idx)) {
        box->cpu = new_cpu;
        cpumask_set_cpu(new_cpu, &pmu->cpu_mask);
    }
    ...
}

Because box->cpu remains -1, uncore_box_ref() bypasses initialization:

arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.c:uncore_box_ref() {
    ...
    if (box && box->cpu >= 0 && atomic_inc_return(&box->refcnt) == 1)
        uncore_box_init(box);
    ...
}

Furthermore, uncore_pmu_event_init() rejects event creations if box->cpu
is negative. Because of this, it appears the PMU operations (init, enable,
disable) are never executed for this box, making the call to
intel_generic_uncore_box_ctl() unreachable.

Does this mean the removed WARN_ON_ONCE(!unit) was actually a valid
assertion, and the !unit check is effectively dead code?

[PATCH V3 2/7] perf/x86/intel/uncore: Guard against invalid box control address

[Zide Chen]

Theoretically, intel_uncore_find_discovery_unit() could return NULL,
e.g., when a CPU die is offline during uncore enumeration and its PMU
units are not added to the discovery RB-tree.

Guard against a NULL return value and the resulting invalid box control
address (0) before accessing hardware.

perf/x86/intel/uncore: Guard against invalid box control address

This commit adds null pointer checks against the return value of
intel_generic_uncore_box_ctl() to prevent invalid hardware accesses
when a CPU die is offline during uncore enumeration.

> +++ b/arch/x86/events/intel/uncore_discovery.c

[ ... ]

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does the initialization of PMU boxes lack
necessary memory barriers?

In arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.c, a new PMU box is allocated, initialized,
and published to the array without a write memory barrier:

arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.c:allocate_boxes() {
    ...
    box->pmu->boxes[die] = box;
    ...
}

Because MSR/MMIO PMUs are registered to the perf core before allocate_boxes()
is invoked via CPU hotplug callbacks, could userspace concurrently invoke
perf_event_open()?

This would trigger uncore_pmu_event_init(), which locklessly reads the box
without a read memory barrier:

arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.c:uncore_pmu_to_box() {
    ...
    return dieid < uncore_max_dies() ? pmu->boxes[dieid] : NULL;
}

This data race might allow the CPU to observe the box pointer before its
contents (such as box->cpu and box->pmu) are fully initialized or zeroed.
If the uninitialized memory happens to have a value >= 0 for box->cpu,
would it bypass the validation check?

arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.c:uncore_pmu_event_init() {
    ...
    if (!box || box->cpu < 0)
        return -EINVAL;
    ...
}

Consequently, a partially initialized box might be associated with the event,
and when the event is later added or scheduled, uninitialized fields like
box->pmu could be dereferenced.

[PATCH V3 3/7] perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix PCI device refcount leak in UPI discovery

[Zide Chen]

pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot() increments the reference count of the
returned PCI device and therefore requires a matching pci_dev_put().

In skx_upi_topology_cb() and discover_upi_topology(), the lookup is
performed inside a loop, but pci_dev_put() is only called once after
the loop. As a result, references from all previous iterations are
leaked.

Move pci_dev_put(dev) into the if (dev) block immediately after
upi_fill_topology() returns.

Opportunistically, fix uninitialized variable in skx_upi_topology_cb().

perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix PCI device refcount leak in UPI discovery

pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot() increments the reference count of the
returned PCI device and therefore requires a matching pci_dev_put().

In skx_upi_topology_cb() and discover_upi_topology(), the lookup is
performed inside a loop, but pci_dev_put() is only called once after
the loop. As a result, references from all previous iterations are
leaked.

Move pci_dev_put(dev) into the if (dev) block immediately after
upi_fill_topology() returns.

Opportunistically, fix uninitialized variable in skx_upi_topology_cb().

[PATCH V3 4/7] perf/x86/intel/uncore: Defer ADL global PMON enable to enable_box()

[Zide Chen]

On some Raptor Cove CPUs, enabling uncore PMON globally at driver init
may increase power consumption even when no perf events are in use.

Drop adl_uncore_msr_init_box() and defer programming the global control
register to enable_box(), so it is only set when a box is actually used.

IMC and IMC freerunning counters use a separate control path and are
unaffected.

Re: [PATCH V3 4/7] perf/x86/intel/uncore: Defer ADL global PMON enable to enable_box()

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Medium] The patch defers ADL global PMON enablement to `enable_box()` to save power when no events are in use, but fails to realize that `enable_box()` is unconditionally called by the perf core during event teardown, permanently re-enabling the PMON block after its first use.

This patch removes adl_uncore_msr_init_box() and defers programming the
global control register to enable_box(). The goal is to reduce power
consumption on Raptor Cove by enabling uncore PMON globally only when a
box is actually used.

[Severity: Medium]
Will this leave the PMU permanently enabled after its first use?

During event teardown, the perf core brackets the removal with calls to
perf_pmu_disable() and perf_pmu_enable(). perf_pmu_enable() will ultimately
invoke uncore_pmu_enable(), which unconditionally calls enable_box().

Because adl_uncore_msr_enable_box() unconditionally writes the enable bit
without checking if there are any remaining active events (for example,
checking if box->n_active > 0), the global MSR appears to be immediately
re-enabled at the end of the teardown process.

Does this mean the intended power savings are lost the first time the
PMU is used?

[PATCH V3 6/7] perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix uncore_die_to_cpu() for offline dies

[Zide Chen]

If the die is offline when uncore_die_to_cpu() is called, it silently
returns 0, which is misleading.  Return -1 in this case to indicate
that all CPUs on the die are offline and the caller can take care of

Opportunistically, replace -EPERM with -ENODEV, as -ENODEV is

perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix uncore_die_to_cpu() for offline dies

If the die is offline when uncore_die_to_cpu() is called, it silently
returns 0, which is misleading.  Return -1 in this case to indicate
that all CPUs on the die are offline and the caller can take care of
it accordingly.

Opportunistically, replace -EPERM with -ENODEV, as -ENODEV is
the appropriate error when no CPUs are online across all dies.

[PATCH V3 7/7] perf/x86/intel/uncore: Implement global init callback for GNR uncore

[Zide Chen]

On Sierra Forest and Clearwater Forest, the FRZ_ALL bit in the global
control register defaults to 0 at boot, but UBOX PMON units do not
work until the global control register is explicitly written with 0
to trigger hardware initialization properly.

Implement the generic uncore_msr_global_init() callback and add it to
gnr_uncore_init[], which is shared by GNR, GRR, SRF, and CWF.

Re: [PATCH V3 7/7] perf/x86/intel/uncore: Implement global init callback for GNR uncore

[sashiko-bot]

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Critical] Hardware trust boundary violation: A spoofed PCIe device can supply an arbitrary `global.ctl` value, leading to arbitrary MSR writes.
- [Medium] The newly added `uncore_msr_global_init()` uses the unchecked `wrmsrq_on_cpu()` function to write to an MSR address obtained from the hardware discovery table.

[Severity: Medium]
Since the msr parameter is derived from global.ctl which is read from
the hardware discovery table, could an incorrect value from firmware trigger
an unchecked MSR access warning?  Would it be better to use
wrmsrq_safe_on_cpu() here to prevent scary traces if the hardware table
is invalid?

[Severity: Critical]
Does this allow an external device to write 0 to arbitrary MSRs?

The uncore discovery code scans the PCI bus for devices matching the Intel
Vendor ID and discovery Device ID without restricting the search to internal
CPU buses.  If a malicious external PCIe device (e.g., via Thunderbolt)
spoofs these IDs, it can provide a fake discovery table.

Could this attacker-controlled global.ctl value then be passed to
uncore_msr_global_init() and used as the msr index, allowing an attacker
to overwrite security-sensitive MSRs like MSR_LSTAR or MSR_GS_BASE with 0?
