Something made the sys_epoll_wait() function alias not to be found in
the vmlinux DWARF info, being found only in /proc/kallsyms, which made
the BPF perf tests to fail:
[root@jouet ~]# perf test BPF
37: Test BPF filter :
37.1: Test basic BPF filtering : FAILED!
37.2: Test BPF prologue generation : Skip
37.3: Test BPF relocation checker : Skip
[root@jouet ~]#
Using -v we can see it is failing to find DWARF info for the probed function,
sys_epoll_wait, which we can find in /proc/kallsyms but not in vmlinux with
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO:
[root@jouet ~]# grep -w sys_epoll_wait /proc/kallsyms
ffffffffbd295b50 T sys_epoll_wait
[root@jouet ~]#
[root@jouet ~]# readelf -wi /lib/modules/4.7.0+/build/vmlinux | grep -w sys_epoll_wait
[root@jouet ~]#
If we try to use perf probe:
[root@jouet ~]# perf probe sys_epoll_wait
Failed to find debug information for address ffffffffbd295b50
Probe point 'sys_epoll_wait' not found.
Error: Failed to add events.
[root@jouet ~]#
It all works if we use SyS_epoll_wait, that is just an alias to the probed
function:
[root@jouet ~]# grep -i sys_epoll_wait /proc/kallsyms
ffffffffbd295b50 T SyS_epoll_wait
ffffffffbd295b50 T sys_epoll_wait
[root@jouet ~]#
So use it:
[root@jouet ~]# perf test BPF
37: Test BPF filter :
37.1: Test basic BPF filtering : Ok
37.2: Test BPF prologue generation : Ok
37.3: Test BPF relocation checker : Ok
[root@jouet ~]#
Further info:
[root@jouet ~]# gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 6.1.1 20160621 (Red Hat 6.1.1-3)
[acme@jouet linux]$ cat /etc/fedora-release
Fedora release 24 (Twenty Four)
Investigation as to why it fails is still underway, but it was always
going from sys_epoll_wait to SyS_epoll_wait when looking up the DWARF
info in vmlinux, and this is what is breaking now.
Switching to use SyS_epoll_wait allows this test to proceed and test the
BPF code it was designed for, so lets have this in to allow passing this
test while we fix the root cause.

objdump's raw insn output can vary across architectures on the number of
bytes per chunk (bpc) displayed and their endianness.
The code-reading test relied on reading objdump output as 1 bpc. Kaixu
Xia reported test failure on ARM64, where objdump displays 4 bpc:
70c48: f90027bf str xzr, [x29,#72]
70c4c: 91224000 add x0, x0, #0x890
70c50: f90023a0 str x0, [x29,#64]
This patch adds support to read raw insn output for any bpc length.
In case of 2+ bpc it also guesses objdump's display endian.

If dso__build_id_filename(..., NULL, ...) returns !NULL its because it
allocated it, so, when reaching the 'if (dso__is_kcore()) test, we
already checked that and were just "fallbacking" to using
dso->long_name, but without freeing filename, thus leaking it.
Fix it by adding the dso__is_kcore() test to the 'or' group just after
it, the one containing the full fallback code, including freeing the
filename.

It currently does this by parsing the output of 'objdump --disassemble',

The objtool build fails in a cross-compiled environment on a non-x86
host with "ARCH=x86_64":
tools/objtool/objtool-in.o: In function `decode_instructions':
tools/objtool/builtin-check.c:276: undefined reference to `arch_decode_instruction'
We could override the ARCH environment variable and change it back to
x86, similar to what the objtool Makefile was doing before; but it's
tricky to override environment variables consistently.
Instead, take a similar approach used by the Linux top-level Makefile
and introduce a SRCARCH Makefile variable which evaluates to "x86" when
ARCH is either "x86_64" or "x86".

Warn unmatched function filter correctly instead of warning
"symbol-loading error", since that can be a filter issue.
From the technical point of view, this adds a filter chech in map__load
and if there is a filter, it returns -2 (filter-out), instead of -1
(error), and perf-probe checks it and change message.
E.g. without this fix:
# perf probe -F rt_sp*
no symbols found in [kernel.kallsyms], maybe install a debug package?
Failed to load symbols in kernel
With this fix:
# perf probe -F rt_sp*
no symbols passed the given filter.
Failed to find symbols matched to "rt_sp*"
Error: Failed to show functions.

In some cases it's necessry to figure out the map-local index of a given
Linux logical CPU ID. Add a new helper, cpu_map__idx, to acquire this.
As the logic is largely the same as the existing cpu_map__has, this is
rewritten in terms of the new helper.
At the same time, add the inverse operation, cpu_map__cpu, which yields
the logical CPU id for a map-local index. While this can be performed
manually, wrapping this in a helper can make code more legible.

In create_perf_stat_counter, when a target CPU has not been provided, we
call __perf_evsel__open with empty_cpu_map, and open a single FD per
thread. However, in read_counter we assume that we opened events for the
product of threads and CPUs described in the evsel's cpu_map.
Thus, if an evsel has a cpu_map with more than one entry, we will
attempt to access FDs that we didn't open. This could result in a number
of problems (e.g. blocking while reading from STDIN if the fd memory
happened to be initialised to zero).
This is problematic for systems were a logical CPU PMU covers some
arbitrary subset of CPUs. The cpu_map of any evsel for that PMU will be
initialised based on the cpumask exposed through sysfs, even if the user
requests per-thread events.

When working with overwritable ring buffer there's a inconvenience
problem: if perf dumps data after a long period after it starts,
non-sample events may lost, which makes following 'perf report' unable
to identify proc name and mmap layout. For example:
# perf record -m 4 -e raw_syscalls:* -g --overwrite --switch-output \
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null
send SIGUSR2 after dd runs long enough. The resuling perf.data lost
correct comm and mmap events:
# perf script -i perf.data.2016061522374354
perf 24478 [004] 2581325.601789: raw_syscalls:sys_exit: NR 0 = 512

Fail to unwind
This patch provides a '--tail-synthesize' option, allows perf to collect
system status when finalizing output file. In resuling output file, the
non-sample events reflect system status when dumping data.
After this patch:
# perf record -m 4 -e raw_syscalls:* -g --overwrite --switch-output --tail-synthesize \
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null
# perf script -i perf.data.2016061600544998

^^^^^
Correct unwind
This option doesn't aim to solve this problem completely. If a process
terminates before SIGUSR2, we still lost its COMM and MMAP events. For
example, we can't unwind correctly from the final perf.data we get from
the previous example, because when perf collects the final output file
(when we press C-c), 'dd' has been terminated so its '/proc/<pid>/mmap'
becomes empty.
However, this is a cheaper choice. To completely solve this problem we
need to continously output non-sample events. To satisify the
requirement of daemonization, we need to merge them periodically. It is
possible but requires much more code and cycles.
Automatically select --tail-synthesize when --overwrite is provided.

If write_backward attribute is set, records are written into kernel
ring buffer from end to beginning, but read from beginning to end.
To avoid 'XX out of order events recorded' warning message (timestamps
of records is in reverse order when using write_backward), suppress the
warning message if write_backward is selected by at lease one event.
