Hello I've been busy but finally had a chance to run perf_fuzzer on current git. I am running on an AMD A10 system (my traditional Haswell system is otherwise occupied).
I got the following WARNING which was followed by an NMI storm which eventually managed to confuse ext4 enough that my / partition was remounted read-only? Very alarming. This is in static void perf_ibs_start(struct perf_event *event, int flags) if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!(hwc->state & PERF_HES_STOPPED))) return; [ 359.629045] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_amd_ibs.c:372 perf_ibs_start+0x43/0x131() [ 359.639091] Modules linked in: nfsd auth_rpcgss oid_registry nfs_acl nfs lockd grace fscache sunrpc nls_utf8 nls_cp437 vfat fat snd_hda_codec_realtek snd_hda_codec_generic snd_hda_codec_hdmi kvm_amd kvm sha256_generic hmac drbg ansi_cprng aesni_intel aes_x86_64 snd_hda_intel ablk_helper cryptd snd_hda_codec lrw snd_hda_core gf128mul glue_helper ppdev snd_hwdep hp_wmi snd_pcm evdev sparse_keymap snd_timer pl2303 radeon ttm drm_kms_helper tpm_infineon pcspkr drm efivars psmouse serio_raw i2c_piix4 i2c_algo_bit usbserial fb_sys_fops shpchp k10temp parport_pc snd syscopyarea i2c_core parport soundcore tpm_tis wmi sysfillrect button tpm sysimgblt acpi_cpufreq processor sg sr_mod cdrom sd_mod ohci_pci ahci libahci tg3 xhci_pci ptp pps_core libata xhci_hcd ohci_hcd ehci_pci libphy ehci_hcd crc32c_intel [ 359.711502] scsi_mod usbcore usb_common [ 359.714203] CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Tainted: G W 4.3.0-rc6+ #12 [ 359.721804] Hardware name: Hewlett-Packard HP Compaq Pro 6305 SFF/1850, BIOS K06 v02.57 08/16/2013 [ 359.730808] 0000000000000006 ffffffff8123e6b7 0000000000000000 ffffffff8104519a [ 359.738322] ffffffff8102a003 ffff880224098c00 ffffe8ffffc036d0 ffffffff81824ec0 [ 359.745832] ffff88022ec0f8e0 ffffffff8102a003 ffff880224098c00 ffffe8ffffc06a70 [ 359.753328] Call Trace: [ 359.755793] <IRQ> [<ffffffff8123e6b7>] ? dump_stack+0x40/0x50 [ 359.761762] [<ffffffff8104519a>] ? warn_slowpath_common+0x94/0xa9 [ 359.767963] [<ffffffff8102a003>] ? perf_ibs_start+0x43/0x131 [ 359.773730] [<ffffffff8102a003>] ? perf_ibs_start+0x43/0x131 [ 359.779495] [<ffffffff810d8842>] ? perf_event_task_tick+0x101/0x1b5 [ 359.785874] [<ffffffff8109476c>] ? tick_sched_do_timer+0x24/0x24 [ 359.791990] [<ffffffff81063628>] ? scheduler_tick+0x64/0x7d [ 359.797673] [<ffffffff810896fd>] ? update_process_times+0x3b/0x45 [ 359.803876] [<ffffffff810942d3>] ? tick_sched_handle+0x3e/0x4a [ 359.809820] [<ffffffff8109479b>] ? tick_sched_timer+0x2f/0x53 [ 359.815676] [<ffffffff81089f55>] ? __hrtimer_run_queues+0xb9/0x18b [ 359.821967] [<ffffffff8108a1e8>] ? hrtimer_interrupt+0x61/0x101 [ 359.827995] [<ffffffff8102d417>] ? smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x20/0x2f [ 359.834549] [<ffffffff8141e58f>] ? apic_timer_interrupt+0x7f/0x90 [ 359.840745] <EOI> [<ffffffff8133f769>] ? cpuidle_enter_state+0xf3/0x145 [ 359.847579] [<ffffffff8106ebab>] ? cpu_startup_entry+0x170/0x1db [ 359.853694] [<ffffffff818eddfd>] ? start_kernel+0x40b/0x413 [ 359.859371] ---[ end trace 93964ed985254224 ]--- [ 360.468852] Uhhuh.
