      perf report: Fix a wrong offset issue when using /proc/kcore · 935f5a9d
      由 Jin Yao 提交于 
      When a valid vmlinux is not found, 'perf report' falls back to look at
/proc/kcore. In this case, it will report the impossible large offset.

For example:

  # perf record -b -e cycles:k find /etc/ > /dev/null
  # perf report --stdio --branch-history

    22.77%  _vm_normal_page+18446603336221188162
            |
            ---page_remove_rmap +18446603336221188324
               page_remove_rmap +18446603336221188487 (cycles:5)
               unlock_page_memcg +18446603336221188096
               page_remove_rmap +18446603336221188327 (cycles:1)

The issue is the value which is passed to parameter 'addr' in
__get_srcline() is the objdump address. It's not correct if we calculate
the offset by using 'addr - sym->start'.

This patch creates a new parameter 'ip' in __get_srcline(). It is not
converted to objdump address.

With this patch, the perf report output is:

    22.77%  _vm_normal_page+66
            |
            ---page_remove_rmap +228
               page_remove_rmap +391 (cycles:5)
               unlock_page_memcg +0
               page_remove_rmap +231 (cycles:1)
               page_remove_rmap +236

Committer testing:

Make sure you get any valid vmlinux out of the way, using '-v' on the
'perf report' case and deleting it from places where perf searches them,
like your kernel build dir and the build-id cache, in ~/.debug/.

      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      由 Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于 
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Note that the difference is only this large when `--inline` is not
passed. In such situations, we would use the inliner cache and thus do
not run this code path that often.

I think that this cache should actually be used in other places, too.
When looking at the valgrind leak report for perf report, we see tons of
srclines being leaked, most notably from calls to
hist_entry__get_srcline. The problem is that get_srcline has many
different formatting options (show_sym, show_addr, potentially even
unwind_inlines when calling __get_srcline directly). As such, the
srcline cannot easily be cached for all calls, or we'd have to add
caches for all formatting combinations (6 so far). An alternative would
be to remove the formatting options and handle that on a different level
- i.e. print the sym/addr on demand wherever we actually output
something. And the unwind_inlines could be moved into a separate
function that does not return the srcline.

      perf report: Cache failed lookups of inlined frames · b38775cf
      由 Milian Wolff 提交于 
      When no inlined frames could be found for a given address, we did not
store this information anywhere. That means we potentially do the costly
inliner lookup repeatedly for cases where we know it can never succeed.

This patch makes dso__parse_addr_inlines always return a valid
inline_node. It will be empty when no inliners are found. This enables
us to cache the empty list in the DSO, thereby improving the performance
when many addresses fail to find the inliners.

For my trivial example, the performance impact is already quite
significant:

      perf top: Implement multithreading for perf_event__synthesize_threads · 340b47f5
      由 Kan Liang 提交于 
      The proc files which is sorted with alphabetical order are evenly
assigned to several synthesize threads to be processed in parallel.

For 'perf top', the threads number hard code to online CPU number. The
following patch will introduce an option to set it.

For other perf tools, the thread number is 1. Because the process
function is not ready for multithreading, e.g.
process_synthesized_event.

This patch series only support event synthesize multithreading for 'perf
top'. For other tools, it can be done separately later.

With multithread applied, the total processing time can get up to 1.56x
speedup on Knights Mill for 'perf top'.

For specific single event processing, the processing time could increase
because of the lock contention. So proc_map_timeout may need to be
increased. Otherwise some proc maps will be truncated.

Based on my test, increasing the proc_map_timeout has small impact
on the total processing time. The total processing time still get 1.49x
speedup on Knights Mill after increasing the proc_map_timeout.
The patch itself doesn't increase the proc_map_timeout.

Doesn't need to implement multithreading for per task monitoring,
perf_event__synthesize_thread_map. It doesn't have performance issue.

      perf tools: Provide mutex wrappers for pthreads rwlocks · 0a7c74ea
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      Andi reported a performance drop in single threaded perf tools such as
'perf script' due to the growing number of locks being put in place to
allow for multithreaded tools, so wrap the POSIX threads rwlock routines
with the names used for such kinds of locks in the Linux kernel and then
allow for tools to ask for those locks to be used or not.

I.e. a tool may have a multithreaded phase and then switch to single
threaded, like the upcoming patches for the synthesizing of
PERF_RECORD_{FORK,MMAP,etc} for pre-existing processes to then switch to
single threaded mode in 'perf top'.

The init routines will not be conditional, this way starting as single
threaded to then move to multi threaded mode should be possible.

      perf report: Calculate the average cycles of iterations · c4ee0625
      由 Jin Yao 提交于 
      The branch history code has a loop detection function. With this, we can
get the number of iterations by calculating the removed loops.

While it would be nice for knowing the average cycles of iterations.
This patch adds up the cycles in branch entries of removed loops and
save the result to the next branch entry (e.g. branch entry A).

Finally it will display the iteration number and average cycles at the
"from" of branch entry A.

For example:
perf record -g -j any,save_type ./div
perf report --branch-history --no-children --stdio

--22.63%--main div.c:42 (RET CROSS_2M)
          compute_flag div.c:28 (cycles:2 iter:173115 avg_cycles:2)

           --10.73%--compute_flag div.c:27 (RET CROSS_2M)
                     rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1)

      perf record: Fix wrong size in perf_record_mmap for last kernel module · 9ad4652b
      由 Thomas Richter 提交于 
      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.

      由 Jin Yao 提交于 
        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:

      perf symbols: Accept zero as the kernel base address · 4b1303d0
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      Which is the case in S/390, where symbols were not being resolved
because machine__get_kernel_start was only setting machine->kernel_start
when the just successfully loaded kernel symtab had its map->start set
to !0, when it was left at (1ULL << 63) assuming a partitioning of the
address space for user/kernel, which is not the case in S/390 nor in
Sparc.

So just check if map__load() was successfull and set
machine->kernel_start to zero, fixing kernel symbol resolution on S/390.

The reason is that with kernel.kptr_restrict=2, we don't get
the symbol from machine__get_running_kernel_start, which we
want to use in maps__set_kallsyms_ref_reloc_sym and we crash.

Check the symbol name value before calling
maps__set_kallsyms_ref_reloc_sym() and succeed without ref_reloc_sym
being set. It's safe because we check its existence before we use it.

      perf symbols: Accept symbols starting at address 0 · b843f62a
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      That is the case of _text on s390, and we have some functions that return an
address, using address zero to report problems, oops.

This would lead the symbol loading routines to not use "_text" as the reference
relocation symbol, or the first symbol for the kernel, but use instead
"_stext", that is at the same address on x86_64 and others, but not on s390:

  [acme@localhost perf-4.11.0-rc6]$ head -15 /proc/kallsyms
  0000000000000000 T _text
  0000000000000418 t iplstart

Which in turn would make 'perf test vmlinux' to fail because it wouldn't find
the symbols before "_stext" in kallsyms.

Fix it by using the return value only for errors and storing the
address, when the symbol is successfully found, in a provided pointer
arg.
