      perf: add perf-inject builtin · 454c407e
      Tom Zanussi 提交于
      Currently, perf 'live mode' writes build-ids at the end of the
      session, which isn't actually useful for processing live mode events.
      
      What would be better would be to have the build-ids sent before any of
      the samples that reference them, which can be done by processing the
      event stream and retrieving the build-ids on the first hit.  Doing
      that in perf-record itself, however, is off-limits.
      
      This patch introduces perf-inject, which does the same job while
      leaving perf-record untouched.  Normal mode perf still records the
      build-ids at the end of the session as it should, but for live mode,
      perf-inject can be injected in between the record and report steps
      e.g.:
      
      perf record -o - ./hackbench 10 | perf inject -v -b | perf report -v -i -
      
      perf-inject reads a perf-record event stream and repipes it to stdout.
      At any point the processing code can inject other events into the
      event stream - in this case build-ids (-b option) are read and
      injected as needed into the event stream.
      
      Build-ids are just the first user of perf-inject - potentially
      anything that needs userspace processing to augment the trace stream
      with additional information could make use of this facility.

      kgdb: don't needlessly skip PAGE_USER test for Fsl booke · 56151e75
      Wufei 提交于
      The bypassing of this test is a leftover from 2.4 vintage
      kernels, and is no longer appropriate, or even used by KGDB.
      Currently KGDB uses probe_kernel_write() for all access to
      memory via the KGDB core, so it can simply be deleted.
      
      This fixes CVE-2010-1446.

      perf test: Initial regression testing command · 1c6a800c
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      First an example with the first internal test:
      
      [acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ perf test
       1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: Ok
      
      So it run just one test, that is "vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms", and it was
      successful.
      
      If we run it in verbose mode, we'll see details about errors and extra warnings
      for non-fatal problems:
      
      [acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ perf test -v
       1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms:
      --- start ---
      Looking at the vmlinux_path (5 entries long)
      No build_id in vmlinux, ignoring it
      No build_id in /boot/vmlinux, ignoring it
      No build_id in /boot/vmlinux-2.6.34-rc4-tip+, ignoring it
      Using /lib/modules/2.6.34-rc4-tip+/build/vmlinux for symbols
      Maps only in vmlinux:
       ffffffff81cb81b1-ffffffff81e1149b 0 [kernel].init.text
       ffffffff81e1149c-ffffffff9fffffff 0 [kernel].exit.text
       ffffffffff600000-ffffffffff6000ff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_0
       ffffffffff600100-ffffffffff6003ff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_fn
       ffffffffff600400-ffffffffff6007ff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_1
       ffffffffff600800-ffffffffffffffff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_2
      Maps in vmlinux with a different name in kallsyms:
       ffffffffff600000-ffffffffff6000ff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_0 in kallsyms as [kernel].0
       ffffffffff600100-ffffffffff6003ff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_fn in kallsyms as:
      *ffffffffff600100-ffffffffff60012f 0 [kernel].2
       ffffffffff600400-ffffffffff6007ff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_1 in kallsyms as [kernel].6
       ffffffffff600800-ffffffffffffffff 0 [kernel].vsyscall_2 in kallsyms as [kernel].8
      Maps only in kallsyms:
       ffffffffff600130-ffffffffff6003ff 0 [kernel].4
      ---- end ----
      vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: Ok
      [acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$
      
      In the above case we only know the name of the non contiguous kernel ranges in
      the address space when reading the symbol information from the ELF symtab in
      vmlinux.
      
      The /proc/kallsyms file lack this, we only notice they are separate because
      there are modules after the kernel and after that more kernel functions, so we
      need to have a module rbtree backed by the module .ko path to get symtabs in
      the vmlinux case.
      
      The tool uses it to match by address to emit appropriate warning, but don't
      considers this fatal.
      
      The .init.text and .exit.text ines, of course, aren't in kallsyms, so I left
      these cases just as extra info in verbose mode.
      
      The end of the sections also aren't in kallsyms, so we the symbols layer does
      another pass and sets the end addresses as the next map start minus one, which
      sometimes pads, causing harmless mismatches.
      
      But at least the symbols match, tested it by copying /proc/kallsyms to
      /tmp/kallsyms and doing changes to see if they were detected.
      
      This first test also should serve as a first stab at documenting the
      symbol library by providing a self contained example that exercises it
      together with comments about what is being done.
      
      More tests to check if actions done on a monitored app, like doing mmaps, etc,
      makes the kernel generate the expected events should be added next.

      xfs: add a shrinker to background inode reclaim · 9bf729c0
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      On low memory boxes or those with highmem, kernel can OOM before the
      background reclaims inodes via xfssyncd. Add a shrinker to run inode
      reclaim so that it inode reclaim is expedited when memory is low.
      
      This is more complex than it needs to be because the VM folk don't
      want a context added to the shrinker infrastructure. Hence we need
      to add a global list of XFS mount structures so the shrinker can
      traverse them.
