      perf symbols: Add BSS symbols when reading from /proc/kallsyms · 2be732c0
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      We were not considering 'B' and 'b' (BSS, uninitialized data objects,
      that gets set to zero at program start), do it so that we can resolve
      more symbols in tools doing resolution of data operands, like 'perf c2c'.
      
      When using vmlinux, i.e. an ELF symbol table, those were already
      considered, as the decision was about STT_FUNC or STT_OBJECT, and the
      later covers BSS symbols.

      perf report: Fix switching to another perf.data file · 7b366142
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      In the TUI the 's' hotkey can be used to switch to another perf.data
      file in the current directory, but that got broken in Fixes:
      b01141f4 ("perf annotate: Initialize the priv are in symbol__new()"),
      that would show this once another file was chosen:
      
          ┌─Fatal Error─────────────────────────────────────┐
          │Annotation needs to be init before symbol__init()│
          │                                                 │
          │                                                 │

          └─────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
      
      Fix it by just silently bailing out if symbol__annotation_init() was already
      called, just like is done with symbol__init(), i.e. they are done just once at
      session start, not when switching to a new perf.data file.

      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      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.

      perf tools: Provide mutex wrappers for pthreads rwlocks · 0a7c74ea
      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 record: Fix wrong size in perf_record_mmap for last kernel module · 9ad4652b
      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.

        Added new event:

        You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
      
                 perf record -e probe_libpthread:pthread_create -aR sleep 1
      
        $ /usr/bin/sudo ./perf record -e probe_libpthread:pthread_create -aR ./test 2

      perf symbols: Accept symbols starting at address 0 · b843f62a

      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
        0000000000000800 T start
        000000000000080a t .base
        000000000000082e t .sk8x8
        0000000000000834 t .gotr
        0000000000000842 t .cmd
        0000000000000846 t .parm
        000000000000084a t .lowcase
        0000000000010000 T startup
        0000000000010010 T startup_kdump
        0000000000010214 t startup_kdump_relocated
        0000000000011000 T startup_continue
        00000000000112a0 T _ehead
        0000000000100000 T _stext
        [acme@localhost perf-4.11.0-rc6]$
      
      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.
