The export does not work if only branches are exported because of a
missing column in the samples table. Fix by adding the missing
call_path_id.

If that is the case, or if the required lib is not present, e.g.
elfutils-devel in Fedora systems, then just skip the tests requiring
DWARF analysis.
Before:
# rpm -e elfutils-devel
# perf test ping vfs_getname
60: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : FAILED!
61: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping : Ok
62: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: FAILED!
63: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : FAILED!
#
After:
# perf test vfs_getname
60: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Skip
62: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Skip
63: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Skip
#
Then, reinstalling elfutils-devel, rebuilding the tool and running
again:
# perf test vfs_getname
60: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Ok
62: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Ok
63: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Ok

Add a library function that checks if 'perf probe' is built into the
tool being tested, skipping tests that need it.
Testing it on a system after removing the library needed to build
'probe' as a perf subcommand:
# perf test ping vfs_getname
59: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Skip
60: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping : Skip
61: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Skip
62: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Skip
# perf probe
perf: 'probe' is not a perf-command. See 'perf --help'.
#
Now reinstalling elfutils-libelf-devel on this Fedora 26 system to
rebuild perf and then retest this:
# perf test ping vfs_getname
60: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Ok
61: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping : Ok
62: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Ok
63: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Ok

Installs a probe on libc's inet_pton function, that will use uprobes,
then use 'perf trace' on a ping to localhost asking for just one packet
with the a backtrace 3 levels deep, check that it is what we expect.

The 'perf report' tool does not display the addresses of kernel module
symbols correctly.
For example symbol qeth_send_ipa_cmd in kernel module qeth.ko has this
relative address for function qeth_send_ipa_cmd():
[root@s8360047 linux]# nm -g drivers/s390/net/qeth.ko | fgrep send_ipa_cmd
0000000000013088 T qeth_send_ipa_cmd
The module is loaded at address:
[root@s8360047 linux]# cat /sys/module/qeth/sections/.text
0x000003ff80296d20
[root@s8360047 linux]#
This should result in a start address of:
0x13088 + 0x3ff80296d20 = 0x3ff802a9da8
Using crash to verify the address on a live system:
[root@s8360046 linux]# crash vmlinux
crash 7.1.9++
Copyright (C) 2002-2016 Red Hat, Inc.
Copyright (C) 2004, 2005, 2006, 2010 IBM Corporation

3ff802a9da8 (T) qeth_send_ipa_cmd [qeth] /root/linux/drivers/s390/net/qeth_core_main.c: 2944
crash>
Now perf report displays the address of symbol qeth_send_ipa_cmd:
symbol__new:
qeth_send_ipa_cmd 0x130f0-0x132ce
There is a difference of 0x68 between the entry in the symbol table (see
nm command above) and perf. The difference is from the offset the .text
segment of qeth.ko:
[root@s8360047 perf]# readelf -a drivers/s390/net/qeth.ko
Section Headers:
[Nr] Name Type Address Offset
Size EntSize Flags Link Info Align
[ 0] NULL 0000000000000000 00000000
0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0 0 0
[ 1] .note.gnu.build-i NOTE 0000000000000000 00000040

000000000001c8a0 0000000000000000 AX 0 0 8
As seen the .text segment has an offset of 0x68 with start address 0x0.
Therefore 0x68 is added to the address of qeth_send_ipa_cmd and thus
0x13088 + 0x68 = 0x130f0 is displayed.
This is wrong, perf report needs to display the start address of symbol
qeth_send_ipa_cmd at 0x13088 + qeth.ko.text section start address.
The qeth.ko module .text start address is available in the qeth.ko DSO
map. Just identify the kernel module symbols and correct the addresses.
With the fix I see this correct address for symbol: symbol__new:
qeth_send_ipa_cmd 0x3ff802a9da8-0x3ff802a9f86

During work on perf report for s390 I ran into the following issue:
0 0x318 [0x78]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP -1/0:
[0x3ff804d6990(0xfffffc007fb2966f) @ 0]:
x /lib/modules/4.12.0perf1+/kernel/drivers/s390/net/qeth_l2.ko
This is a PERF_RECORD_MMAP entry of the perf.data file with an invalid
module size for qeth_l2.ko (the s390 ethernet device driver).
Even a mainframe does not have 0xfffffc007fb2966f bytes of main memory.
It turned out that this wrong size is created by the perf record
command. What happens is this function call sequence from
__cmd_record():
perf_session__new():
perf_session__create_kernel_maps():
machine__create_kernel_maps():
machine__create_modules(): Creates map for all loaded kernel modules.
modules__parse(): Reads /proc/modules and extracts module name and
load address (1st and last column)
machine__create_module(): Called for every module found in /proc/modules.
Creates a new map for every module found and enters
module name and start address into the map. Since the
module end address is unknown it is set to zero.
This ends up with a kernel module map list sorted by module start
addresses. All module end addresses are zero.
Last machine__create_kernel_maps() calls function map_groups__fixup_end().
This function iterates through the maps and assigns each map entry's
end address the successor map entry start address. The last entry of the
map group has no successor, so ~0 is used as end to consume the remaining
memory.
Later __cmd_record calls function record__synthesize() which in turn calls
perf_event__synthesize_kernel_mmap() and perf_event__synthesize_modules()
to create PERF_REPORT_MMAP entries into the perf.data file.
On s390 this results in the last module qeth_l2.ko
(which has highest start address, see module table:
[root@s8360047 perf]# cat /proc/modules
qeth_l2 86016 1 - Live 0x000003ff804d6000
qeth 266240 1 qeth_l2, Live 0x000003ff80296000
ccwgroup 24576 1 qeth, Live 0x000003ff80218000
vmur 36864 0 - Live 0x000003ff80182000
qdio 143360 2 qeth_l2,qeth, Live 0x000003ff80002000
[root@s8360047 perf]# )
to be the last entry and its map has an end address of ~0.
When the PERF_RECORD_MMAP entry is created for kernel module qeth_l2.ko
its start address and length is written. The length is calculated in line:
event->mmap.len = pos->end - pos->start;
and results in 0xffffffffffffffff - 0x3ff804d6990(*) = 0xfffffc007fb2966f
(*) On s390 the module start address is actually determined by a __weak function
named arch__fix_module_text_start() in machine__create_module().
I think this improvable. We can use the module size (2nd column of /proc/modules)
to get each loaded kernel module size and calculate its end address.
Only for map entries which do not have a valid end address (end is still zero)
we can use the heuristic we have now, that is use successor start address or ~0.

Sometimes we get a non-null, but empty, string for the filename from

To allow testing by directly using perf tools in scripts, checking that
the effects on the system are the ones expected and that the output
produced is as well the desired one.
For instance, adding a probe at a well known location with 'perf probe',
then checking that the results from using that probe to record are the
desired ones, etc.
The next csets will introduce tests using this new testing
infrastructure.
The scripts should return 0 for Ok, 1 for FAIL and 2 for SKIP.

This way we'll be able to pass more test specific parameters without
having to change this function signature.
Will be used by the upcoming 'shell tests', shell scripts that will

The stat shadow saved values rbtree is indexed by a pointer. Fix the
comparison function:
- We cannot return a pointer delta as an int because that loses bits on
64bit.
- Doing pointer arithmetic on the struct pointer only works if the
objects are spaced by the multiple of the object size, which is not
guaranteed for individual malloc'ed object
Replace it with a proper comparison.
This fixes various problems with values not being found.

Drop the .json suffix for events directory in the mapfile.csv.
Now that we have separate JSON files for each topic in a CPU (eg: see
tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/powerpc/power8/*.json) the .json suffix in
the mapfile is misleading and redundant.

Not all subsystems use the fact that we may have the same _IOC_NR for
different _IOC_DIR, as in the end it'll result in a different ioctl
number.
So, for instance, vhost virtio has:
#define VHOST_GET_FEATURES _IOR(VHOST_VIRTIO, 0x00, __u64)
#define VHOST_SET_FEATURES _IOW(VHOST_VIRTIO, 0x00, __u64)
So same _IOC_NR (0x00) but different _IOC_DIR (R versus W), but it also
have:
#define VHOST_SET_VRING_ENDIAN _IOW(VHOST_VIRTIO, 0x13, struct vhost_vring_state)
#define VHOST_GET_VRING_ENDIAN _IOW(VHOST_VIRTIO, 0x14, struct vhost_vring_state)
A "get" operation that uses a "W" _IOC_DIR, and its implementation, uses
copy_to_user, it should've probably been _IOR().
Then:
/* Base value where queue looks for available descriptors */
#define VHOST_SET_VRING_BASE _IOW(VHOST_VIRTIO, 0x12, struct vhost_vring_state)
/* Get accessor: reads index, writes value in num */
#define VHOST_GET_VRING_BASE _IOWR(VHOST_VIRTIO, 0x12, struct vhost_vring_state)
So we'll need to use _IOC_DIR() to disambiguate the VHOST_VIRTIO ioctl
bautifier.

This time we try a new approach, using a copy of uapi/sound/asound.h we
auto generate the string tables, then include it in the ioctl cmd
beautifier.
This way either the sound developers will add the new commands to the
tools/ copy, like is happening with other areas of tools/include/ (bpf.h
comes to mind), or we'll be notified when building perf that our copy
drifted.
E.g.:
# perf trace -p 22084 -e ioctl 2>&1 | head -5
0.000 ( 0.068 ms): alsa-sink-ALC3/22084 ioctl(fd: 49</dev/snd/pcmC1D0p>, cmd: SNDRV_PCM_HWSYNC, arg: 0x557f8d7fa0f0) = 0

By using the _IOC_(DIR,NR,TYPE,SIZE) macros to lookup a 'type' keyed
table that then gets indexed by 'nr', falling back to a notation similar
to the one used by 'strace', only more compact, i.e.:
474.356 ( 0.007 ms): gnome-shell/22401 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: (READ|WRITE, 0x64, 0xae, 0x1c), arg: 0x7ffc934f7880) = 0
474.369 ( 0.053 ms): gnome-shell/22401 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: (READ|WRITE, 0x64, 0xb0, 0x18), arg: 0x7ffc934f77d0) = 0
505.055 ( 0.014 ms): gnome-shell/22401 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: (READ|WRITE, 0x64, 0xaf, 0x4), arg: 0x7ffc934f741c) = 0
This also moves it out of builtin-trace.c and into trace/beauty/ioctl.c
to better compartimentalize all these formatters.

We copy headers from include/, arch/ to allow tools/ use defines,
structs from newer kernels and still be able to build on older systems.
We then, as part of a build, check if those copies got out of sync, when
we emit a warning, so that we can check if something needs to be
reflected on the tools, e.g. a 'perf trace' syscall argument beautifier
needs tweaking.
But we don't have to be super strict with that, for instance, extra
spaces, tabs or blank lines aren't problematic, so change
check-headers.sh to have "--ignore-blank-lines --ignore-space-change" as
default "diff" arguments.

In this patch we changed the header checks:
perf build: Clarify header version warning message
Unfortunately the header checks were copied to various places and thus the message got
out of sync. Fix some of them here.
Note that there's still old, misleading messages remaining in:
tools/objtool/Makefile: || echo "warning: objtool: x86 instruction decoder differs from kernel" >&2 )) || true
tools/objtool/Makefile: || echo "warning: objtool: orc_types.h differs from kernel" >&2 )) || true
here objtool copied the perf message, plus:
tools/perf/util/intel-pt-decoder/Build: || echo "Warning: Intel PT: x86 instruction decoder differs from kernel" >&2 )) || true
here the PT code regressed over the original message and only emits a vague warning
instead of specific file names...
All of this should be consolidated into tools/Build/ and used in a consistent
manner.

New features:
- Add PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN and PERF_RECORD_MMAP[2] to 'perf data' CTF
conversion, allowing CTF trace visualization tools to show callchains
and to resolve symbols (Geneviève Bastien)
Improvements:
- Use group read for event groups in 'perf stat', reducing overhead when
groups are defined in the event specification, i.e. when using {} to
enclose a list of events, asking them to be read at the same time,
e.g.: "perf stat -e '{cycles,instructions}'" (Jiri Olsa)
Fixes:
- Do not overwrite perf_sample->weight in 'perf annotate' when
processing samples, use whatever came from the kernel when
perf_event_attr.sample_type has PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT set or just handle
its default value, 0, when that is not set and "weight" is one of the
sort orders chosen (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- 'perf annotate --show-total-period' fixes:
- TUI should show period, not nr_samples
- Set appropriate column width for period/percent
- Fix the column header to show "Period" when when that is what

This adds the mmap and mmap2 events to the CTF trace obtained from perf
data.
These events will allow CTF trace visualization tools like Trace Compass
to automatically resolve the symbols of the callchain to the
corresponding function or origin library.
To include those events, one needs to convert with the --all option.
Here follows an output of babeltrace:
$ sudo perf data convert --all --to-ctf myctftrace

[ Extracted from a larger patch, s/Event count/Period/g ]
Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
In commit f8f4aaead5 ("perf annotate: Finally display IPC and cycle
accounting") the 'pcnt_width' variable was abused in a few places to
also include the optional width of the "IPC" and "cycles" columns, while
in other places we stopped using 'pcnt_width' and instead its previous
equation...
Now that we need to tap into annotate_browser__pcnt_width() to consider
if --show-total-period is being used and instead of that hardcoded 7
(strlen("Percent")) we need to use it or strlen("Event count") we need
this properly clarified to avoid having to touch all the (7 * nr_events)
places.
Clarify this by introducing a separate annotate_browser__cycles_width()
to leave the pcnt_width calculate just what its name implies.

caused by commit d49dadea78 ("perf tools: Make 'trace' or

account that evlist is empty in pipe-mode.
Before this commit, pipe mode will only show bogus "100.00% N/A"

Make perf stat use group read if there are groups defined. The group
read will get the values for all member of groups within a single
syscall instead of calling read syscall for every event.
We can see considerable less amount of kernel cycles spent on single
group read, than reading each event separately, like for following perf
stat command:
# perf stat -e {cycles,instructions} -I 10 -a sleep 1
Monitored with "perf stat -r 5 -e '{cycles:u,cycles:k}'"
Before:
24,325,676 cycles:u
297,040,775 cycles:k

Current --branch-history LBR annotation displays confused data. For
example, each cycles report is duplicated on both "from" and "to"
entries.
For example:
perf report --branch-history --no-children --stdio
--2.32%--main div.c:39 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M predicted:49.7% cycles:1)
main div.c:44 (predicted:49.7% cycles:1)
main div.c:42 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:2)
compute_flag div.c:28 (cycles:2)
compute_flag div.c:27 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:1)
rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1)
rand rand.c:28 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:1)
__random random.c:298 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:297 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:9)
The cycles should be tagged only on the "from". It's for the code block
that ends with "from", not for "to".
Another issue is the "predicted:49.7%" is duplicated too (tag on both
"from" and "to").
This patch tags the branch type/flag on "to" and tag the cycles on
"from".
For example:
--2.32%--main div.c:39 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M predicted:49.7%)
main div.c:44 (cycles:1)
main div.c:42 (RET CROSS_2M)
compute_flag div.c:28 (cycles:2)
compute_flag div.c:27 (RET CROSS_2M)
rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1)
rand rand.c:28 (RET CROSS_2M)
__random random.c:298 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:297 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (RET CROSS_2M)
|
--2.23%--__random_r random_r.c:392 (cycles:9)
In this example, The "main div.c:39 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M predicted:49.7%)"
is "to" of branch and "main div.c:44 (cycles:1)" is "from" of branch.
It should be easier for understanding than before.

perf record -b -g <command>
perf report --branch-history
This merges the LBRs with the callgraphs.
However it would be nice if it also works without callgraphs (-g) set in
perf record, so that only the LBRs are displayed. But currently perf
report errors in this case. For example,
perf record -b <command>
perf report --branch-history
Error:
Selected -g or --branch-history but no callchain data. Did
you call 'perf record' without -g?
This patch displays the LBRs only even if callgraphs(-g) is not enabled
in perf record.
Change log:
v2: According to Milian Wolff's comment, change the obsolete error
message. Now the error message is:
┌─Error:─────────────────────────────────────┐
│Selected -g or --branch-history. │
│But no callchain or branch data. │
│Did you call 'perf record' without -g or -b?│

│Press any key... │
└────────────────────────────────────────────┘
When passing the last parameter to hists__fprintf,
changes "|" to "||".

EXCLUDE_EXTLIBS contains linker flags to be removed from LIBS
while EXTRA_PERFLIBS contains linker flags to be added.

When converting from atomic_t to refcount_t we didn't follow the usual
step of initializing it to one before taking any new reference, which
trips over checking if taking a reference for a freed refcount_t, fix
it.

It's 4.12-rc7, with node v4.4.1. I'm building 4.13-rc1 now, as I hit
what I think is another unrelated perf bug and I'm starting to wonder
what else is broken on that version:

On s390x the kernel text segment starts at address 0x0. When perf
report reads kernel symbols from vmlinux file it adds an offset of
0x1000.
For example see symbol set_reset_devices:
[root@s8360047 linux-devel]# nm -A vmlinux| fgrep set_reset_devices
vmlinux:0000000001379000 t set_reset_devices
[root@s8360047 linux-devel]#
[root@s8360047 linux-devel]# fgrep set_reset_devices /proc/kallsyms
0000000001379000 t set_reset_devices
[root@s8360047 linux-devel]#
The kernel symbol table and the vmlinux file have the same address for
symbol set_reset_devices namely 1379000.
When perf report reads this symbols it displays it with address
symbol__new: set_reset_devices 0x137a000-0x137a018
There is a difference between perf report and vmlinux of 0x1000.
The reason for the difference is at kernel symbol load time in function
dso__load_sym(). The vmlinux file is investigated with its ELF header.
Command readelf shows this:
Section Headers:
[Nr] Name Type Address Offset
Size EntSize Flags Link Info Align
[ 0] NULL 0000000000000000 00000000
0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0 0 0
[ 1] .text PROGBITS 0000000000000000 00001000
0000000000b0e0c2 0000000000000000 AX 0 0 128
This leads to an invalid calculation of the symbol start address, see
file utit/symbol-elf.c line 974:
/* Adjust symbol to map to file offset */
if (adjust_kernel_syms)
sym.st_value -= shdr.sh_addr - shdr.sh_offset;
With shdr.sh_addr set to 0x0 and shdr.sh_offset set to 0x1000 as read
from the ELF .text section 0x1000 is added to the symbol address.
I would like to fix this by introducing an archticture specific function
named elf__needs_adjust_symbols(). This is the same approach as done by
PowerPC. The function currently does not exist for s390x and the
default weak one is used. The s390x specific one returns false when
symsrc_init() is invoked for kernel symbols and results in variable
adjust_kernel_syms being false. This omits the adjustment and the
correct address is displayed (when symbol resolvement does not work).
The s390x specific function returns false for kernel symbol adjustment
and returns true for kernel modules, processes and shared libraries.

struct sym_hist has addr[] but it should have not only number of samples
but also the sample period. So use new struct symhist_entry to pave the
way to have that.

This initial patch will only introduce the struct sym_hist_entry and use
only the nr_samples member, which makes the code clearer and paves the
way to save the period as well.

Avoiding a loop, so now its quite convenient to ssh to a machine and
then simply do:
# perf trace
To trace all syscalls without causing a loop.
This was possible using --filter-pids, i.e. once you noticed the loop,
get the sshd pid and add it to --filter-pids, restarting the 'perf
trace'.
Now to figure out how to do that in a X terminal, the other common
scenario, which is way more involved, as there are multiple processes
communicating to process terminal activity...
Using --filter-pids + '-e \!syscall,names,you,dont,need' may be a good
approximation when having to do syswide tracing on your workstation.

No change in functionality, just to make clearer that what we want when
filtering the tracer pid in a system wide tracing session is to avoid a
feedback loop.
This also paves the way for a more interesting loop avoidance algorithm,
one that tries to figure out if we are in a ssh session, xterm, etc.

Previously we only used the syscall_fmt when we had sc->tp_format set,
i.e. when we found the (enter, exit) pair in tracefs/events/syscalls/.
But we really only need to use what is in sc->arg_fmt to apply the arg
beautifiers to the syscall argument values, so do it.
With this we will be able to provide formatters to the "clone" syscall,
which doesn't have entries in tracefs/events/syscalls/.
