2e1f8f7895 perf probe: Change MAX_CMDLEN
There are many SDT markers in powerpc whose uprobe definition goes
beyond current MAX_CMDLEN, especially when target filename is long and
sdt marker has long list of arguments. For example, definition of sdt
marker

  method__compile__end: 8@17 8@9 8@10 -4@8 8@7 -4@6 8@5 -4@4 1@37(28)

from file

  /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.91-2.b14.fc22.ppc64/jre/lib/ppc64/server/libjvm.so

is

  p:sdt_hotspot/method__compile__end /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-\
    1.8.0.91-2.b14.fc22.ppc64/jre/lib/ppc64/server/libjvm.so:0x4c4e00\
    arg1=%gpr17:u64 arg2=%gpr9:u64 arg3=%gpr10:u64 arg4=%gpr8:s32\
    arg5=%gpr7:u64 arg6=%gpr6:s32 arg7=%gpr5:u64 arg8=%gpr4:s32\
    arg9=+37(%gpr28):u8

'perf probe' fails with segfault for such markers. As the uprobe_events
file accepts definitions up to 4094 characters(4096 - 2 (\n\0)),
increase value of MAX_CMDLEN match that.

f0a30dca5f perf probe: Fix concat_probe_trace_events
'*ntevs' contains number of elements present in 'tevs' array. If there
are no elements in array, 'tevs2' can be directly assigned to 'tevs'
without allocating more space. So the condition should be  '*ntevs == 0'
not  'ntevs == 0'.

7ab31d94bf perf kretprobes: Offset from reloc_sym if kernel supports it
We indicate support for accepting sym+offset with kretprobes through a
line in ftrace README. Parse the same to identify support and choose the
appropriate format for kprobe_events.

As an example, without this perf patch, but with the ftrace changes:

  naveen@ubuntu:~/linux/tools/perf$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/README | grep kretprobe
  place (kretprobe): [<module>:]<symbol>[+<offset>]|<memaddr>

  0 arguments
  Looking at the vmlinux_path (8 entries long)

  Added new events:
    probe:do_open        (on do_open%return)
    probe:do_open_1      (on do_open%return)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe:do_open_1 -aR sleep 1

  naveen@ubuntu:~/linux/tools/perf$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/list

613f050d68 perf probe: Fix to probe on gcc generated functions in modules
Fix to probe on gcc generated functions on modules. Since
probing on a module is based on its symbol name, it should
be adjusted on actual symbols.

E.g. without this fix, perf probe shows probe definition
on non-exist symbol as below.

  $ perf probe -m build-x86_64/net/netfilter/nf_nat.ko -F in_range*
  in_range.isra.12
  $ perf probe -m build-x86_64/net/netfilter/nf_nat.ko -D in_range
  p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range+0

With this fix, perf probe correctly shows a probe on
gcc-generated symbol.

  $ perf probe -m build-x86_64/net/netfilter/nf_nat.ko -D in_range
  p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range.isra.12+0

This also fixes same problem on online module as below.

  $ perf probe -m i915 -D assert_plane
  p:probe/assert_plane i915:assert_plane.constprop.134+0

8a937a25a7 perf probe: Fix to probe on gcc generated symbols for offline kernel
Fix perf-probe to show probe definition on gcc generated symbols for
offline kernel (including cross-arch kernel image).

gcc sometimes optimizes functions and generate new symbols with suffixes
such as ".constprop.N" or ".isra.N" etc. Since those symbol names are
not recorded in DWARF, we have to find correct generated symbols from
offline ELF binary to probe on it (kallsyms doesn't correct it).  For
online kernel or uprobes we don't need it because those are rebased on
_text, or a section relative address.

E.g. Without this:

  $ perf probe -k build-arm/vmlinux -F __slab_alloc*
  __slab_alloc.constprop.9
  $ perf probe -k build-arm/vmlinux -D __slab_alloc
  p:probe/__slab_alloc __slab_alloc+0

If you put above definition on target machine, it should fail
because there is no __slab_alloc in kallsyms.

With this fix, perf probe shows correct probe definition on
__slab_alloc.constprop.9:

  $ perf probe -k build-arm/vmlinux -D __slab_alloc
  p:probe/__slab_alloc __slab_alloc.constprop.9+0

eebc509b20 perf probe: Fix --funcs to show correct symbols for offline module
Fix --funcs (-F) option to show correct symbols for offline module.
Since previous perf-probe uses machine__findnew_module_map() for offline
module, even if user passes a module file (with full path) which is for
other architecture, perf-probe always tries to load symbol map for
current kernel module.

This fix uses dso__new_map() to load the map from given binary as same
as a map for user applications.

1f2ed153b9 perf probe: Fix to get correct modname from elf header
Since 'perf probe' supports cross-arch probes, it is possible to analyze
different arch kernel image which has different bits-per-long.

In that case, it fails to get the module name because it uses the
MOD_NAME_OFFSET macro based on the host machine bits-per-long, instead
of the target arch bits-per-long.

This fixes above issue by changing modname-offset based on the target
archs bit width. This is ok because linux kernel uses LP64 model on
64bit arch.

E.g. without this (on x86_64, and target module is arm32):

  $ perf probe -m build-arm/fs/configfs/configfs.ko -D configfs_lookup
  p:probe/configfs_lookup :configfs_lookup+0
                          ^-Here is an empty module name.

With this fix, you can see correct module name:

  $ perf probe -m build-arm/fs/configfs/configfs.ko -D configfs_lookup
  p:probe/configfs_lookup configfs:configfs_lookup+0

35726d3a4c perf probe: Fix to cut off incompatible chars from group name
Cut off the characters which can not use for group name of uprobes
when making it based on executable filename.

For example, if the exec name is libstdc++.so, without this fix
perf probe generates "probe_libstdc++" as the group name, but
it is failed to set because '+' can not be used for group name.

With this fix perf accepts only alphabet, number or '_' for group
name, thus perf generates "probe_libstdc" as the group name.

E.g. with this fix, you can see the event name has no "+".

99e608b595 perf probe ppc64le: Fix probe location when using DWARF
Powerpc has Global Entry Point and Local Entry Point for functions.  LEP
catches call from both the GEP and the LEP. Symbol table of ELF contains
GEP and Offset from which we can calculate LEP, but debuginfo does not
have LEP info.

Currently, perf prioritize symbol table over dwarf to probe on LEP for
ppc64le. But when user tries to probe with function parameter, we fall
back to using dwarf(i.e. GEP) and when function called via LEP, probe
will never hit.

For example:

  $ objdump -d vmlinux
    ...
    do_sys_open():
    c0000000002eb4a0:       e8 00 4c 3c     addis   r2,r12,232
    c0000000002eb4a4:       60 00 42 38     addi    r2,r2,96
    c0000000002eb4a8:       a6 02 08 7c     mflr    r0
    c0000000002eb4ac:       d0 ff 41 fb     std     r26,-48(r1)

  $ sudo ./perf probe do_sys_open
  $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
    p:probe/do_sys_open _text+3060904

  $ sudo ./perf probe 'do_sys_open filename:string'
  $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
    p:probe/do_sys_open _text+3060896 filename_string=+0(%gpr4):string

For second case, perf probed on GEP. So when function will be called via
LEP, probe won't hit.

  $ sudo ./perf record -a -e probe:do_sys_open ls
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.195 MB perf.data ]

To resolve this issue, let's not prioritize symbol table, let perf
decide what it wants to use. Perf is already converting GEP to LEP when
it uses symbol table. When perf uses debuginfo, let it find LEP offset
form symbol table. This way we fall back to probe on LEP for all cases.

After patch:

  $ sudo ./perf probe 'do_sys_open filename:string'
  $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
    p:probe/do_sys_open _text+3060904 filename_string=+0(%gpr4):string

  $ sudo ./perf record -a -e probe:do_sys_open ls
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.197 MB perf.data (11 samples) ]

  [root@jouet ~]#

Ok, now we can use 'perf probe' to refer to those cached entries as:

  Humm, nope, doing as above we end up with:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf probe -a %sdt_libstdcxx:catch
  Semantic error :* is bad for event name -it must follow C symbol-naming rule.
    Error: Failed to add events.
  [root@jouet ~]#

But it worked at some point, lets try not using --dry-run:

Resetting everything:

  # rm -rf ~/.debug/
  # perf probe -d *:*
  # perf probe -l
  # perf list sdt

    List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):

  #

Ok, now it cached everything, even things we haven't asked it to
(sdt_libgcc:unwind):

  [root@jouet ~]# perf probe -x /usr/bin/gcc --add %sdt_libstdcxx:\*
  Added new events:
    sdt_libstdcxx:throw  (on %* in /usr/bin/gcc)
    sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow (on %* in /usr/bin/gcc)
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch  (on %* in /usr/bin/gcc)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e sdt_libstdcxx:catch -aR sleep 1

  [root@jouet ~]# perf list sdt

  List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):

    sdt_libgcc:unwind                                  [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch                                [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow                              [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:throw                                [SDT event]
  [root@jouet ~]#

And we have the events in place:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf probe -l
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch  (on execute_cfa_program+1551@../../../libgcc/unwind-dw2.c in /usr/bin/gcc)
    sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow (on d_print_subexpr+280@libsupc++/cp-demangle.c in /usr/bin/gcc)
    sdt_libstdcxx:throw  (on d_print_subexpr+93@libsupc++/cp-demangle.c in /usr/bin/gcc)
  [root@jouet ~]#

And trying to use them at least has 'perf trace --event sdt*:*' working.

Then, if we try to add the ones in libstdc++:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 -a %sdt_libstdcxx:\*
  Error: event "catch" already exists.
   Hint: Remove existing event by 'perf probe -d'
         or force duplicates by 'perf probe -f'
         or set 'force=yes' in BPF source.
    Error: Failed to add events.
  [root@jouet ~]#

Doesn't work, dups, but at least this served to, unbeknownst to the user, add
the SDT probes in /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6!

  [root@jouet ~]# perf list sdt

  List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):

    sdt_libgcc:unwind                                  [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch@/usr/bin/gcc(9a0730e2bcc6)     [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch@/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22(ef2b7066559a) [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow@/usr/bin/gcc(9a0730e2bcc6)   [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow@/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22(ef2b7066559a) [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:throw@/usr/bin/gcc(9a0730e2bcc6)     [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:throw@/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22(ef2b7066559a) [SDT event]
  [root@jouet ~]#

Now we should be able to get to the original cset comment, if we remove all
SDTs events in place, not from the cache, from the kernel, where it was set up as:

  [root@jouet ~]# ls -la /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sdt_libstdcxx/
  total 0
  drwxr-xr-x.  5 root root 0 Jul 13 22:00 .
  drwxr-xr-x. 80 root root 0 Jul 13 21:56 ..
  drwxr-xr-x.  2 root root 0 Jul 13 22:00 catch
  -rw-r--r--.  1 root root 0 Jul 13 22:00 enable
  -rw-r--r--.  1 root root 0 Jul 13 22:00 filter
  drwxr-xr-x.  2 root root 0 Jul 13 22:00 rethrow
  drwxr-xr-x.  2 root root 0 Jul 13 22:00 throw
  [root@jouet ~]#

  [root@jouet ~]# head -2 /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sdt_libstdcxx/throw/format
  name: throw
  ID: 2059
  [root@jouet ~]#

Now to remove it:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf probe -d sdt_libstdc*:*
  Removed event: sdt_libstdcxx:catch
  Removed event: sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow
  Removed event: sdt_libstdcxx:throw
  [root@jouet ~]#

Which caused:

  [root@jouet ~]# ls -la /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sdt_libstdcxx/
  ls: cannot access '/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sdt_libstdcxx/': No such file or directory
  [root@jouet ~]#

Ok, now we can do:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf list sdt_libstdcxx:catch

  List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):

    sdt_libstdcxx:catch@/usr/bin/gcc(9a0730e2bcc6)     [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch@/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22(ef2b7066559a) [SDT event]
  [root@jouet ~]#

So, these are not really 'pre-defined events', i.e. we can't use them with
'perf record --event':

  [root@jouet ~]# perf record --event sdt_libstdcxx:catch*
  event syntax error: 'sdt_libstdcxx:catch*'
                       \___ unknown tracepoint

  Error:	File /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sdt_libstdcxx/catch* not found.
  Hint:	Perhaps this kernel misses some CONFIG_ setting to enable this feature?.
<SNIP>
  [root@jouet ~]#

To have it really pre-defined we must use perf probe to get its definition from
the cache and set it up in the kernel, creating the tracepoint to _then_ use it
with 'perf record --event':

  [root@jouet ~]# perf probe -a sdt_libstdcxx:catch
  Semantic error :There is non-digit char in line number.
  <SNIP>

Oops, there is another gotcha here, we need that pesky '%' character:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf probe -a %sdt_libstdcxx:catch
  Added new events:
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch  (on %catch in /usr/bin/gcc)
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch_1 (on %catch in /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e sdt_libstdcxx:catch_1 -aR sleep 1

  [root@jouet ~]#

But then we added _two_ events, one with the name we expected, the other one
with a _ added, when doing the analysis we need to pay attention to who maps to
who.

And here is where we get to the point of this patch, which is to be able to
disambiguate those definitions for 'catch' in the build-id cache, but first we need
remove those events we just added:

[root@jouet ~]# perf probe -d %sdt_libstdcxx:catch

Oops, that didn't remove anything, we need to _remove_ that % char in this case:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf probe -d sdt_libstdcxx:catch
  Removed event: sdt_libstdcxx:catch

And we need to remove the other event added, i.e. I forgot to add a * at the end:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf probe -d sdt_libstdcxx:catch*
  Removed event: sdt_libstdcxx:catch_1
  [root@jouet ~]#

Ok, disambiguating it using what is in this patch:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf list sdt_libstdcxx:catch

  List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):

    sdt_libstdcxx:catch@/usr/bin/gcc(9a0730e2bcc6)     [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch@/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22(ef2b7066559a) [SDT event]
  [root@jouet ~]#
  [root@jouet ~]# perf probe -a %sdt_libstdcxx:catch@9a07
  Added new event:
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch  (on %catch in /usr/bin/gcc)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e sdt_libstdcxx:catch -aR sleep 1

  [root@jouet ~]# perf probe -l
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch  (on execute_cfa_program+1551@../../../libgcc/unwind-dw2.c in /usr/bin/gcc)
  [root@jouet ~]#

Yeah, it works! But we need to try and simplify this :-)

Update: Some aspects of this simplification take place in the following
        patches.

1de7b8bf72 perf probe: Search SDT/cached event from all probe caches
Search SDT/cached event from all probe caches if user doesn't pass any

named cached events (which start with %).

E.g. without this, a target binary must be passed with -x.

  # perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.20.so -a %sdt_libc:\*

With this change, we don't need it anymore.

42bba263eb perf probe: Allow wildcard for cached events
Allo glob wildcard for reusing cached/SDT events. E.g.

  # perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.20.so -a %sdt_libc:\*

This example adds probes for all SDT in libc.
Note that the SDTs must have been scanned by perf buildid-cache.

Committer note:

Using it to check what of those SDT probes would take place when doing
a cargo run (rust):

  # trace --no-sys --event sdt_libc:* cargo run

36a009fe07 perf probe: Accept %sdt and %cached event name
To improve usability, support %[PROVIDER:]SDTEVENT format to add new
probes on SDT and cached events.

e.g.
  ----
  # perf probe -x /lib/libc-2.17.so  %lll_lock_wait_private
  Added new event:
    sdt_libc:lll_lock_wait_private (on %lll_lock_wait_private in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e sdt_libc:lll_lock_wait_private -aR sleep 1

  # perf probe -l | more
    sdt_libc:lll_lock_wait_private (on __lll_lock_wait_private+21 in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)
  ----

Note that this is not only for SDT events, but also normal
events with event-name.

e.g. define "myevent" on cache (-n doesn't add the real probe)
  ----
  # perf probe -x ./perf --cache -n --add 'myevent=dso__load $params'
  ----
  Reuse the "myevent" from cache as below.
  ----
  # perf probe -x ./perf %myevent

c8b5f2c96d tools: Introduce str_error_r()
The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that
returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else.

But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the
function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided
buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that
instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine
Linux, where musl libc is used.

So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU
interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that
users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is
returned.

0b3c2264ae perf symbols: Fix kallsyms perf test on ppc64le
ppc64le functions have a Global Entry Point (GEP) and a Local Entry
Point (LEP). While placing a probe, we always prefer the LEP since it
catches function calls through both the GEP and the LEP. In order to do
this, we fixup the function entry points during elf symbol table lookup
to point to the LEPs. This works, but breaks 'perf test kallsyms' since
the symbols loaded from the symbol table (pointing to the LEP) do not
match the symbols in kallsyms.

To fix this, we do not adjust all the symbols during symbol table load.
Instead, we note down st_other in a newly introduced arch-specific
member of perf symbol structure, and later use this to adjust the probe
trace point.

c61fb959df perf probe: Fix module probe issue if no dwarf support
Perf is not able to register probe in kernel module when dwarf supprt
is not there(and so it goes for symtab). Perf passes full path of
module where only module name is required which is causing the problem.
This patch fixes this issue.

Before applying patch:

  $ dpkg -s libdw-dev
  dpkg-query: package 'libdw-dev' is not installed and no information is...

  $ sudo ./perf probe -m /linux/samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.ko kprobe_init
  Added new event:
    probe:kprobe_init (on kprobe_init in /linux/samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.ko)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

  perf record -e probe:kprobe_init -aR sleep 1

  $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
  p:probe/kprobe_init /linux/samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.ko:kprobe_init

  $ sudo ./perf record -a -e probe:kprobe_init
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.105 MB perf.data ]

  $ sudo ./perf script 	# No output here

After applying patch:

  $ sudo ./perf probe -m /linux/samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.ko kprobe_init
  Added new event:
    probe:kprobe_init    (on kprobe_init in kprobe_example)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

  perf record -e probe:kprobe_init -aR sleep 1

  $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
  p:probe/kprobe_init kprobe_example:kprobe_init

  $ sudo ./perf record -a -e probe:kprobe_init
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.105 MB perf.data (2 samples) ]

  $ sudo ./perf script
  insmod 13990 [002]  5961.216833: probe:kprobe_init: ...

63a29613d7 perf probe: Fix offline module name missmatch issue
Perf can add a probe on kernel module which has not been loaded yet.

The current implementation finds the module name from path. But if the
filename is different from the actual module name then perf fails to
register a probe while loading module because of mismatch in the names.

For example, samples/kobject/kobject-example.ko is loaded as
kobject_example.

Before applying patch:

  $ sudo ./perf probe -m /linux/samples/kobject/kobject-example.ko foo_show
    Added new event:
      probe:foo_show       (on foo_show in kobject-example)

    You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

    perf record -e probe:foo_show -aR sleep 1

  $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
    p:probe/foo_show kobject-example:foo_show

  $ insmod kobject-example.ko

  $ lsmod
    Module                  Size  Used by
    kobject_example        16384  0

  Generate read to /sys/kernel/kobject_example/foo while recording data
  with below command
  $ sudo ./perf record -e probe:foo_show -a
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.093 MB perf.data ]

  $./perf report --stdio -F overhead,comm,dso,sym
    Error:
    The perf.data.old file has no samples!

After applying patch:

  $ sudo ./perf probe -m /linux/samples/kobject/kobject-example.ko foo_show
    Added new event:
      probe:foo_show       (on foo_show in kobject_example)

    You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

    perf record -e probe:foo_show -aR sleep 1

  $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
    p:probe/foo_show kobject_example:foo_show
