Using perf with call graph method dwarf fails to provide backtrace
support for stripped binary even though .gnu_debuglink points to *.dbg
flavor with properly populated debug symbols.
Problem is reproduced on ARM (v7, v8), kernels 3.14.y, 4.4.y and
4.10.rc3. Perf is configured with libunwind, and unwind dwarf support
[1]. Test code (stress_bt.c) can be found on [2].
Running (explicitly disable other unwinding methods):
$ gcc -g -o stress_bt -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-unwind-tables \
-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables stress_bt.c
$ perf record -N --call-graph dwarf ./stress_bt
$ perf report
results in properly generated call graph. Stripping the binary and running
it results with missing call graph. Expected result is to have call graph:
$ gcc -g -o stress_bt -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-unwind-tables \
-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables stress_bt.c
$ objcopy --only-keep-debug stress_bt stress_bt.dbg
$ objcopy --strip-debug stress_bt
$ objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink=stress_bt.dbg stress_bt
$ perf record -N --call-graph dwarf ./stress_bt
$ perf report
Problem is that perf doesn't try to read symbols pointed by gnu
debuglink. Patch adds checking, and reading of the symbols from
debuglink and symsrc. Order of the check is to first check within dso,
then check whether symsrc is defined and try to read from it. Finally,
debuglink is checked. Default locations of debug files are discussed in
[3] and [4]. Comments on RFC are on [5].

The use_browser and perf_version_string variables are both declared in
perf.c but they are also referenced by other functions of libperf.a.
Therefore a user linking an own main() with libperf.a must declare those
two variables in their files even if the files never use the browser or
the version information.
This patch fixes this issue by moving use_browser and
perf_version_string out of perf.c to some other files.

The install command for libperf-jvmti.so does not check if libdir exists
before installing. This means that when the install command is run:
install libperf-jvmti.so '/tmp/test_root/usr/lib64';
libperf-jvmti.so will get installed to /usr/lib64 as a file and break
further installation. Fix this by ensuring the directory gets created
first.

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

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.

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

When --time option is given with a value outside recorded time, the last
sample time (tprev) was set to that value and run time calculation might
be incorrect. This is a problem of the first samples for each cpus
since it would skip the runtime update when tprev is 0. But with --time
option it had non-zero (which is invalid) value so the calculation is
also incorrect.
For example, let's see the followging:
$ perf sched timehist

The sample starts at 3195.968367 but when I gave a time interval from
3194 to 3196 (in sec) it will calculate the whole 2 second as runtime.

Fixes a perf diff regression issue which was introduced by commit
5baecbcd9c ("perf symbols: we can now read separate debug-info files
based on a build ID")
The binary name could be same when perf diff different binaries. Build
id is used to distinguish between them.
However, the previous patch assumes the same binary name has same build
id. So it overwrites the build id according to the binary name,
regardless of whether the build id is set or not.
Check the has_build_id in dso__load. If the build id is already set, use
it.

If jump target is outside of function range, perf is not handling it

address, target offset will be negative. But, target address declared to

lesser than function start address(34cf0).

Enable perf_evsel::ignore_missing_thread for -u option to ignore
complete failure if any of the user's processes die between its
enumeration and time we open the event.
Committer notes:
While doing a 'make -j4 allmodconfig' we sometimes get into the race:
Before:
# perf record -u acme
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 3 (No such process) for event (cycles:ppp).
/bin/dmesg may provide additional information.
No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?
#
After:
[root@jouet ~]# perf record -u acme
WARNING: Ignored open failure for pid 9888
WARNING: Ignored open failure for pid 18059
[root@jouet ~]#
Which is an improvement, with the races not preventing the remaining threads
for the specified user from being monitored, but the message probably needs
further clarification.
