commit 914123fa39042e651d79eaf86bbf63a1b938dddf upstream.
On AMD processors, the detection of an overflowed counter in the NMI handler relies on the current value of the counter. So, for example, to check for overflow on a 48 bit counter, bit 47 is checked to see if it is 1 (not overflowed) or 0 (overflowed).
There is currently a race condition present when disabling and then updating the PMC. Increased NMI latency in newer AMD processors makes this race condition more pronounced. If the counter value has overflowed, it is possible to update the PMC value before the NMI handler can run. The updated PMC value is not an overflowed value, so when the perf NMI handler does run, it will not find an overflowed counter. This may appear as an unknown NMI resulting in either a panic or a series of messages, depending on how the kernel is configured.
To eliminate this race condition, the PMC value must be checked after disabling the counter. Add an AMD function, amd_pmu_disable_all(), that will wait for the NMI handler to reset any active and overflowed counter after calling x86_pmu_disable_all().
