We already were able to ask for callchains for a specific event:
# trace -e nanosleep --call dwarf --event sched:sched_switch/call-graph=fp/ usleep 1
This would enable tracing just the "nanosleep" syscall, with callchains
at syscall exit and would ask the kernel for frame pointer callchains to
be enabled for the "sched:sched_switch" tracepoint event, its just that
we were not resolving the callchain and printing it in 'perf trace', do
it:

Now, one can print the call chain for every encountered sys_exit event,
e.g.:
$ perf trace -e nanosleep --call-graph dwarf path/to/ex_sleep

syscall_slow_exit_work ([kernel.kallsyms])
syscall_return_slowpath ([kernel.kallsyms])
int_ret_from_sys_call ([kernel.kallsyms])
__nanosleep (/usr/lib/libc-2.23.so)
[unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.6.0)
QThread::sleep (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.6.0)
main (path/to/ex_sleep)
__libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc-2.23.so)
_start (path/to/ex_sleep)
Note that it is advised to increase the number of mmap pages to prevent
event losses when using this new feature. Often, adding `-m 10M` to the
`perf trace` invocation is enough.
This feature is also available in strace when built with libunwind via
`strace -k`. Performance wise, this solution is much better:
$ time find path/to/linux &> /dev/null
real 0m0.051s
user 0m0.013s
sys 0m0.037s
$ time perf trace -m 800M --call-graph dwarf find path/to/linux &> /dev/null
real 0m2.624s
user 0m1.203s
sys 0m1.333s
$ time strace -k find path/to/linux &> /dev/null
real 0m35.398s
user 0m10.403s
sys 0m23.173s
Note that it is currently not possible to configure the print output.
Adding such a feature, similar to what is available in `perf script` via
its `--fields` knob can be added later on.

ignoring the normal, potentially verbose, output of the debuggee. One
common example is doing something like the following:

be printed at the end. This behavior is also applied by strace.

To work like strace and dereference syscall pointer args we need to
insert probes (or tracepoints) right after we copy those bytes from
userspace.
Since we're formatting the syscall args at raw_syscalls:sys_enter time,
we need to have a formatter that just stores the position where, later,
when we get the probe:vfs_getname, we can insert the pointer contents.
Now, if a probe:vfs_getname with this format is in place:
# perf probe -l
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72@/home/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname)
That was, in this case, put in place with:
# perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=filename:string'
Added new event:
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=filename:string)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1
#
Then 'perf trace' will notice that and do the pointer -> contents
expansion:
# trace -e open touch /tmp/bla
0.165 (0.010 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.195 (0.011 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /lib64/libc.so.6, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.512 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.582 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /tmp/bla, flags: CREAT|NOCTTY|NONBLOCK|WRONLY, mode: 438) = 3
#
Roughly equivalent to strace's output:
# strace -rT -e open touch /tmp/bla
0.000000 open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000039>
0.000317 open("/lib64/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000102>
0.001461 open("/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000072>
0.000405 open("/tmp/bla", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK, 0666) = 3 <0.000055>
0.000641 +++ exited with 0 +++
#
Now we need to either look for at all syscalls that are marked as
pointers and have some well known names ("filename", "pathname", etc)
and set the arg formatter to the one used for the "open" syscall in this
patch.
This implementation works for syscalls with just a string being copied
from userspace, for matching syscalls with more than one string being
copied via the same probe/trace point (vfs_getname) we need to extend
the vfs_getname probe spec to include the pointer too, but there are
some problems with that in 'perf probe' or the kernel kprobes code, need
to investigate before considering supporting multiple strings per
syscall.

We were using it as a magic number, 1024, fix that.
Eventually we need to stop doing it per line, and do it per
arg, traversing the args at output time, to avoid the memmove()
calls that will be used in the next cset to replace pointers
present at raw_syscalls:sys_enter time with its contents that
appear at probe:vfs_getname time, before raw_syscalls:sys_exit
time.

wasn't initialized, i.e. --no-syscalls was specified on the command
line, fix it to show that, still in debug mode, when we have an event

The python binding still doesn't provide symbol resolving facilities,
but the recent addition of the trace_event__register_resolver() function
made it add as a dependency the machine__resolve_kernel_addr() method,
that in turn drags all the symbol resolving code.
The problem:
[root@zoo ~]# perf test -v python
17: Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 6853
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: machine__resolve_kernel_addr
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems: FAILED!
[root@zoo ~]#
Fix it by requiring this function to receive the resolver as a
parameter, just like pevent_register_function_resolver(), i.e. do
not explicitely refer to an object file not included in
tools/perf/util/python-ext-sources.

We use raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} events to show the syscalls, but were
using a rather lazy/inneficient way to implement our 'strace -e' equivalent:
filter out after reading the events in the ring buffer.
Deflect more work to the kernel by appending a filter expression for that,
that, together with the pid list, that is always present, if only to filter the
tracer itself, reduces pressure on the ring buffer and otherwise use
infrastructure already in place in the kernel to do early filtering.
If we use it with -v we can see the filter passed to the kernel,
for instance, for this contrieved case:
# trace -v -e \!open,close,write,poll,recvfrom,select,recvmsg,writev,sendmsg,read,futex,epoll_wait,ioctl,eventfd --filter-pids 2189,2566,1398,2692,4475,4532

Instead of calling perf_evsel__apply_filter straight away, so that
we can, in the next patches, expand the filter with more conditions
before actually calling the ioctl to pass the end result filter to
the kernel.
Now we need to call perf_evlist__apply_filters() after the filter
is completely setup, i.e. do the ioctl calls.
The perf_evlist__apply_filters() method was already in place, because
that is the model for the other tools that receives filters in the
command line: go on setting then in the evsel->filter and only at
the end, after parsing the whole command line, apply them.
We get, as a bonus, a more expressive message that states which
event, if any, failed to have the filter applied to, with an
error message stating what happened.

The 'trace' tool was accepting any names passed and just looking if
syscalls returned via the raw_syscalls:* tracepoints were in that list,
leading to it accepting perf events and then never finding any, as those
are not valid syscall names, confusing users.
Fix it by checking each entry in the list using audit_name_to_syscall,
telling the user which entries are invalid and suggesting where to look
for valid syscall names.
E.g:
[root@zoo ~]# trace -e open,foo,bar,close,baz
Error: Invalid syscall bar, baz, foo
Hint: try 'perf list syscalls:sys_enter_*'
Hint: and: 'man syscalls'

In addition to using refcounts for the struct thread lifetime
management, we need to protect access to machine->threads from
concurrent access.
That happens in 'perf top', where a thread processes events, inserting
and deleting entries from that rb_tree while another thread decays
hist_entries, that end up dropping references and ultimately deleting
threads from the rb_tree and releasing its resources when no further
hist_entry (or other data structures, like in 'perf sched') references
it.
So the rule is the same for refcounts + protected trees in the kernel,
get the tree lock, find object, bump the refcount, drop the tree lock,
return, use object, drop the refcount if no more use of it is needed,
keep it if storing it in some other data structure, drop when releasing
that data structure.
I.e. pair "t = machine__find(new)_thread()" with a "thread__put(t)", and
"perf_event__preprocess_sample(&al)" with "addr_location__put(&al)".
The addr_location__put() one is because as we return references to
several data structures, we may end up adding more reference counting
for the other data structures and then we'll drop it at
addr_location__put() time.

This comes from the desire of having -e/--expr to have the same meaning
as for 'strace', while other perf tools use it for --event, which
'trace' honours, i.e. all perf tools have --event in common, but trace
uses -e for strace's --expr.
Clarify it in the --help output.

We were not checking in the inner event processing loop if the forked workload
had finished, which, on a busy system, may make it take a long time trying to
drain events, entering a seemingly neverending loop, waiting for the system to
get idle enough to make it drain the buffers.
Fix it by disabling the events when 'done' is true, in the inner loop, to start
draining what is in the buffers.

perf trace: No need to enable evsels for workload started from perf
The assumption was that whenever a workload is specified, the
attr.enable_on_exec evsel flag would be set, but that is not happening
when perf_record_opts.system_wide is set, for instance
That resulted in both perf_evlist__enable() and attr.enable_on_exec
being not called/set, which made the events to remain disabled while the
workload runs, producing no output.
Fix it, by calling perf_evlist__enable() in the 'trace' tool
when forking and not targetting a workload started from trace
v2: Test against !target__none(), as suggested by Namhyung Kim, that is
what is used in perf_evsel__config() when deciding if the
attr.enable_on_exec flag to be set. More work is needed to cover other
cases such as opts->initial_delay.

perf trace: Handle multiple threads better wrt syscalls being intermixed
Introduced a bug where it considered the number of bytes output directly
to the output file when formatting the syscall entry buffer that is
stored to be finally printed at syscall exit, ending up leaving garbage
at the start of syscalls that appeared while another syscall was being
processed, in another thread. Fix it.
Example of garbage in the output before this patch:
4280.102 ( 0.000 ms): lsmd/763 ... [continued]: select()) = 0 Timeout

Currently the code skips the first field with the expectation that it is 'nr'.
But older kernels do not have the 'nr' field:
field:int nr; offset:8; size:4; signed:1;
Change perf-trace to drop the field if it exists after parsing the format file.
This fixes the off-by-one problem with older kernels (e.g., RHEL6). e.g,
perf-trace shows this for write:
1.515 ( 0.006 ms): dd/4245 write(buf: 2</dev/pts/0>, count: 140733837536224 ) = 26
where 2 is really the fd, the huge number is really the buf address, etc. With
this patch you get the more appropriate:
1.813 ( 0.003 ms): dd/6330 write(fd: 2</dev/pts/0>, buf: 0x7fff22fc81f0, count: 25) = 25

The intent of the -s/--summary-only option is to just show a summary of
the system calls and statistics without any of the individual events.
Commit e596663ebb broke that by showing the interrupted lines:
perf trace -i perf.data -s
...
0.741 ( 0.000 ms): sleep/31316 fstat(fd: 4, statbuf: 0x7ffc75ceb830 ) ...
0.744 ( 0.000 ms): sleep/31316 mmap(len: 100244, prot: READ, flags: PRIVATE, fd: 4 ) ...
0.747 ( 0.000 ms): perf/31315 write(fd: 3, buf: 0x7d4bb0, count: 8 ) ...
...
Fix by checking for the summary only option.

We need to do that to stop accumulating entries in the dead_threads
linked list, i.e. we were keeping references to threads in struct hists
that continue to exist even after a thread exited and was removed from
the machine threads rbtree.
We still keep the dead_threads list, but just for debugging, allowing us
to iterate at any given point over the threads that still are referenced
by things like struct hist_entry.

Using 'perf trace' for mmap is truncating return values by stripping the
top 32 bits, actually printing only the lower 32 bits.
This was because the ret value was of an 'int' type and not a 'long'
type.
The Problem:
991258501.244 ( 0.004 ms): mmap(len: 40001536, prot: READ|WRITE, flags: PRIVATE|ANONYMOUS, fd: -1) = 0x56691000
991258501.257 ( 0.000 ms): minfault [_int_malloc+0x1038] => //anon@0x7fa056691008 //(d.)
The first line shows an mmap, which succeeds and returns 0x56691000.
However the next line shows a memory access to that virtual memory area,
specifically to 0x7fa056691008. The upper 32 bit is lost due to the
problem mentioned above, and thus mmap's return value didn't have the
upper 0x7fa0.

Currently vmlinux_path__init() only tries to find vmlinux file from
current directory, /boot and some canonical directories with version
number of the running kernel. This can be a problem when reporting old
data recorded on a kernel version not running currently.
We can use --symfs option for this but it's annoying for user to do it
always. As we already have the info in the perf.data file, it can be
changed to use it for the search automatically.
Before:
$ perf report
...
# Samples: 4K of event 'cpu-clock'
# Event count (approx.): 1067250000
#
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ .......... ................. ..............................
71.87% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] recover_probed_instruction
After:
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ .......... ................. ....................
71.87% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] native_safe_halt
This requires to change signature of symbol__init() to receive struct
perf_session_env *.
