The next example scripts need the definition for the BPF functions, i.e.
things like BPF_FUNC_probe_read, and in time will require lots of other
definitions found in uapi/linux/bpf.h, so include it from the bpf.h file
included from the eBPF scripts build with clang via '-e bpf_script.c'
like in this example:

  $ tail -8 tools/perf/examples/bpf/5sec.c
  #include <bpf.h>

  int probe(hrtimer_nanosleep, rqtp->tv_sec)(void *ctx, int err, long sec)
  {
	return sec == 5;
  }

  license(GPL);
  $

That 'bpf.h' include in the 5sec.c eBPF example will come from a set of
header files crafted for building eBPF objects, that in a end-user
system will come from:

  /usr/lib/perf/include/bpf/bpf.h

And will include <uapi/linux/bpf.h> either from the place where the
kernel was built, or from a kernel-devel rpm package like:

  -working-directory /lib/modules/4.17.9-100.fc27.x86_64/build

That is set up by tools/perf/util/llvm-utils.c, and can be overriden
by setting the 'kbuild-dir' variable in the "llvm" ~/.perfconfig file,
like:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [llvm]
       kbuild-dir = /home/foo/git/build/linux

This usually doesn't need any change, just documenting here my findings
while working with this code.

In the future we may want to instead just use what is in
/usr/include/linux/bpf.h, that comes from the UAPI provided from the
kernel sources, for now, to avoid getting the kernel's non-UAPI
"linux/bpf.h" file, that will cause clang to fail and is not what we
want anyway (no BPF function definitions, etc), do it explicitely by
asking for "uapi/linux/bpf.h".

For CS_ETM_TRACE_ON packet, its fields 'packet->start_addr' and
'packet->end_addr' equal to 0xdeadbeefdeadbeefUL which are emitted in
the decoder layer as dummy value, but the dummy value is pointless for
branch sample when we use 'perf script' command to check program flow.

This patch is a preparation to support CS_ETM_TRACE_ON packet for branch
sample, it converts the dummy address value to zero for more readable;
this is accomplished by cs_etm__last_executed_instr() and
cs_etm__first_executed_instr().  The later one is a new function
introduced by this patch.

Usually the start tracing packet is a CS_ETM_TRACE_ON packet, this
packet is passed to cs_etm__flush();  cs_etm__flush() will check the
condition 'prev_packet->sample_type == CS_ETM_RANGE' but 'prev_packet'
is allocated by zalloc() so 'prev_packet->sample_type' is zero in
initialization and this condition is false.  So cs_etm__flush() will
directly bail out without handling the start tracing packet.

This patch is to introduce a new sample type CS_ETM_EMPTY, which is used
to indicate the packet is an empty packet.  cs_etm__flush() will swap
packets when it finds the previous packet is empty, so this can record
the start tracing packet into 'etmq->prev_packet'.

The perf tool build and install is controlled via a Makefile. The
'install' rule creates directories and copies files. Among them are
header files installed in /usr/lib/include/perf/bpf/.

However all listed examples are installing its header files in

  /usr/lib/<tool-name>/...[/include]/header.h

and not in

  /usr/lib/include/<tool-name>/.../header.h.

Background information:

Building the Fedora 28 glibc RPM on s390x and s390 fails on s390 (gcc
-m31) as gcc is not able to find header-files like stdbool.h.

In the glibc.spec file, you can see that glibc is configured with
"--with-headers". In this case, first -nostdinc is added to the CFLAGS
and then further include paths are added via -isystem.  One of those
paths should contain header files like stdbool.h.

In order to get this path, gcc is invoked with:

- on Fedora 28 (with 4.18 kernel):

  $ gcc -print-file-name=include
  /usr/lib/gcc/s390x-redhat-linux/8/include
  $ gcc -m31 -print-file-name=include
  /usr/lib/gcc/s390x-redhat-linux/8/../../../../lib/include
  => If perf is installed, this is: /usr/lib/include
  On my machine this directory is only containing the directory "perf".
  If perf is not installed gcc returns: /usr/lib/gcc/s390x-redhat-linux/8/include

- on Ubuntu 18.04 (with 4.15 kernel):

  $ gcc  -print-file-name=include
  /usr/lib/gcc/s390x-linux-gnu/7/include
  $ gcc -m31 -print-file-name=include
  /usr/lib/gcc/s390x-linux-gnu/7/include
  => gcc returns the correct path even if perf is installed.

In each case, the introduction of the subdirectory /usr/lib/include
leads to the regression that one can not build the glibc RPM for s390
anymore as gcc can not find headers like stdbool.h.

To remedy this install bpf.h to /usr/lib/perf/include/bpf/bpf.h

Committer testing:

While the above 'perf test -F 40' (or 'perf test bpf') will allow us
to see that the correct path is now added via -I, to actually test this
we better try to use a bpf script that includes files in the changed
directory.

We have the files that now reside in /root/lib/perf/examples/bpf/ to do
just that:

  # tail -8 /root/lib/perf/examples/bpf/5sec.c

'perf c2c' scans read/write accesses and tries to find false sharing
cases, so when the events it wants were not asked for or ended up not
taking place, we get no histograms.

So do not try to display entry details if there's not any. Currently
this ends up in crash:

  $ perf c2c report # then press 'd'
  perf: Segmentation fault
  $

Committer testing:

Before:

Record a perf.data file without events of interest to 'perf c2c report',
then call it and press 'd':

  # perf record sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data (6 samples) ]
  # perf c2c report
  perf: Segmentation fault

  #

After the patch the segfault doesn't take place, a follow up patch to
tell the user why nothing changes when 'd' is pressed would be good.

Recently, the subtest numbering was changed to start from 1.  While it
is fine for displaying results, this should not be the case when the
subtests are actually invoked.

Typically, the subtests are stored in zero-indexed arrays and invoked
based on the index passed to the main test function.  Since the index
now starts from 1, the second subtest in the array (index 1) gets
invoked instead of the first (index 0).  This applies to all of the
following subtests but for the last one, the subtest always fails
because it does not meet the boundary condition of the subtest index
being lesser than the number of subtests.

This can be observed on powerpc64 and x86_64 systems running Fedora 28
as shown below.

Just like with other syscall args, the common bits are supressed so that
the output is more compact, i.e. we use "TCP" instead of "IPPROTO_TCP",
but we can make this show the original constant names if we like it by
using some command line knob or ~/.perfconfig "[trace]" section
variable.

Also needed is to make perf's event parser accept things like:

  $ perf trace -e socket*/protocol=TCP/

By using both the tracefs event 'format' files and these tables built
from the kernel sources.

In the table below we would show "protocol: (null)" for

      socket_ipproto[3]

It'll use tools/include copy of linux/in.h to generate a table to be
used by tools, initially by the 'socket' and 'socketpair' beautifiers in
'perf trace', but that could also be used to translate from a string
constant to the integer value to be used in a eBPF or tracefs tracepoint
filter.

When used without any args it produces:

  $ tools/perf/trace/beauty/socket_ipproto.sh
  static const char *socket_ipproto[] = {
	[0] = "IP",
	[103] = "PIM",

We'll use it to create tables for the 'protocol' argument to the
socket syscall when the 'family' arg is one of AF_INET or AF_INET6.

Add it to check_headers.sh so that when a new protocol gets added we get
a notification during the build process.

'perf record' will error out if both --delay and LBR are applied.

For example:

  # perf record -D 1000 -a -e cycles -j any -- sleep 2
  Error:
  dummy:HG: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts.
  Try 'perf stat'
  #

A dummy event is added implicitly for initial delay, which has the same
configurations as real sampling events. The dummy event is a software
event. If LBR is configured, perf must error out.

The dummy event will only be used to track PERF_RECORD_MMAP while perf
waits for the initial delay to enable the real events. The BRANCH_STACK
bit can be safely cleared for the dummy event.

After applying the patch:

  # perf record -D 1000 -a -e cycles -j any -- sleep 2
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.054 MB perf.data (828 samples) ]

Useful when checking the effects of header synchs for the files it uses
as a input to generate string tables, in retrospect this is how it
should've been done from day 1, not requiring the header_dir to be set
on the Makefile, will change everything later, so that the only parm,
common to all generators will be $(srctree) and $(beauty_outdir).

So, to see what it generates, just call it without any parameters:

The UAPI file byteorder/little_endian.h uses the __always_inline define
without including the header where it is defined, linux/stddef.h, this
ends up working in all the other distros because that file gets included
seemingly by luck from one of the files included from little_endian.h.

But not on Alpine:edge, that fails for all files where perf_event.h is
included but linux/stddef.h isn't include before that.

Adding the missing linux/stddef.h file where it breaks on Alpine:edge to
fix that, in all other distros, that is just a very small header anyway.

Perf test 40 for example has several subtests numbered 1-4 when
displaying the start of the subtest. When the subtest results
are displayed the subtests are numbered 0-3.

Use this command to generate trace output:

  [root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf test -Fv 40 2>/tmp/bpf1

Fix this by adjusting the subtest number when show the
subtest result.

Output before:

There's no reason to have separate function to display clock events.
It's only purpose was to convert the nanosecond value into microseconds.
We do that now in generic code, if the unit and scale values are
properly set, which this patch do for clock events.

The output differs in the unit field being displayed in its columns
rather than having it added as a suffix of the event name. Plus the
value is rounded into 2 decimal numbers as for any other event.

Before:

  # perf stat  -e cpu-clock,task-clock -C 0 sleep 3

   Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':

       3001.123137      cpu-clock (msec)          #    1.000 CPUs utilized
       3001.133250      task-clock (msec)         #    1.000 CPUs utilized

       3.001159813 seconds time elapsed

Now:

  # perf stat  -e cpu-clock,task-clock -C 0 sleep 3

   Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':

          3,001.05 msec cpu-clock                 #    1.000 CPUs utilized
          3,001.05 msec task-clock                #    1.000 CPUs utilized

       3.001077794 seconds time elapsed

There's a small difference in csv output, as we now output the unit
field, which was empty before. It's in the proper spot, so there's no
compatibility issue.

Before:

  # perf stat  -e cpu-clock,task-clock -C 0 -x, sleep 3

We occasionaly hit following assert failure in 'perf top', when processing the
/proc info in multiple threads.

  perf: ...include/linux/refcount.h:109: refcount_inc:
        Assertion `!(!refcount_inc_not_zero(r))' failed.

The gdb backtrace looks like this:

  ...

The failing assertion is this one:

  REFCOUNT_WARN(!refcount_inc_not_zero(r), ...

The problem is that we keep global comm_str_root list, which
is accessed by multiple threads during the 'perf top' startup
and following 2 paths can race:

  thread 1:
    ...
    thread__new
      comm__new
        comm_str__findnew
          down_write(&comm_str_lock);
          __comm_str__findnew
            comm_str__get

  thread 2:
    ...
    comm__override or comm__free
      comm_str__put
        refcount_dec_and_test
          down_write(&comm_str_lock);
          rb_erase(&cs->rb_node, &comm_str_root);

Because thread 2 first decrements the refcnt and only after then it removes the
struct comm_str from the list, the thread 1 can find this object on the list
with refcnt equls to 0 and hit the assert.

This patch fixes the thread 1 __comm_str__findnew path, by ignoring objects
that already dropped the refcnt to 0. For the rest of the objects we take the
refcnt before comparing its name and release it afterwards with comm_str__put,
which can also release the object completely.

There's an issue with using threads::last_match in multithread mode
which is enabled during the perf top synthesize. It might crash with
following assertion:

        Assertion `!(!refcount_inc_not_zero(r))' failed.

The failing assertion is this one:

  REFCOUNT_WARN(!refcount_inc_not_zero(r), ...

the problem is that we don't serialize access to threads::last_match.
We serialize the access to the threads tree, but we don't care how's
threads::last_match being accessed. Both locked/unlocked paths use
that data and can set it. In multithreaded mode we can end up with
invalid object in thread__get call, like in following paths race:

  thread 1
    ...
    machine__findnew_thread
      down_write(&threads->lock);
      __machine__findnew_thread
        ____machine__findnew_thread
          th = threads->last_match;
          if (th->tid == tid) {
            thread__get

  thread 2
    ...
    machine__find_thread
      down_read(&threads->lock);
      __machine__findnew_thread
        ____machine__findnew_thread
          th = threads->last_match;
          if (th->tid == tid) {
            thread__get

  thread 3
    ...
    machine__process_fork_event
      machine__remove_thread
        __machine__remove_thread
          threads->last_match = NULL
          thread__put
      thread__put

Thread 1 and 2 might got stale last_match, before thread 3 clears
it. Thread 1 and 2 then race with thread 3's thread__put and they
might trigger the refcnt == 0 assertion above.

The patch is disabling the last_match cache for multiple thread
mode. It was originally meant for single thread scenarios, where
it's common to have multiple sequential searches of the same
thread.

In multithread mode this does not make sense, because top's threads
processes different /proc entries and so the 'struct threads' object
is queried for various threads. Moreover we'd need to add more locks
to make it work.

Stephan reported, that pipe mode does not carry the group information
and thus the piped report won't display the grouped output for following
command:

  # perf record -e '{cycles,instructions,branches}' -a sleep 4 | perf report

It has no idea about the group setup, so it will display events
separately:

When perf/data is recorded with the dwarf call-graph option, the
callchain shown by 'perf script' still shows the binary offsets of the
userspace symbols instead of their virtual addresses. Since the symbol
offset calculation is based on using virtual address as the ip, we see
incorrect offsets as well.

The use of virtual addresses affects the ability to find out the
line number in the corresponding source file to which an address
maps to as described in commit 67540759 ("perf unwind: Use
addr_location::addr instead of ip for entries").

This has also been addressed by temporarily converting the virtual
address to the correponding binary offset so that it can be mapped
to the source line number correctly.

This is a follow-up for commit 19610184 ("perf script: Show
virtual addresses instead of offsets").

This can be verified on a powerpc64le system running Fedora 27 as
shown below:

This should speed up accessing new system calls introduced with the
kernel rather than waiting for libaudit updates to include them.

It also enables users to specify wildcards, for example, perf trace -e
'open*', just like was already possible on x86, s390, and powerpc, which
means arm64 can now pass the "Check open filename arg using perf trace +
vfs_getname" test.

This should speed up accessing new system calls introduced with the
kernel rather than waiting for libaudit updates to include them.

Using the existing other arch scripts resulted in this error:

  tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls//mksyscalltbl: 25: printf: __NR3264_ftruncate: expected numeric value

because, unlike other arches, asm-generic's unistd.h does things like:

  #define __NR_ftruncate __NR3264_ftruncate

Turning the scripts printf's %d into a %s resulted in this in the
generated syscalls.c file:

    static const char *syscalltbl_arm64[] = {
            [__NR3264_ftruncate] = "ftruncate",

So we use the host C compiler to fold the macros, and print them out
from within a temporary C program, in order to get the correct output:

    static const char *syscalltbl_arm64[] = {
            [46] = "ftruncate",

Committer notes:

Testing this with a container with an old toolchain breaks because it
ends up using the system's /usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h, included
from tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h when what is desired is
for it to include tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h.

Since all that tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h is to set a
define and then include asm-generic/unistd.h, do that directly and use
tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h as the file to get the syscall
definitions to expand.

Testing it:

   tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls/mksyscalltbl /gcc-linaro-5.4.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc gcc tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h

Now works and generates in the syscall string table.

Before it ended up as:

  $ tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls/mksyscalltbl /gcc-linaro-5.4.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc gcc tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h

Will be used for generating the syscall id/string translation table.

The arm64 unistd.h file simply #includes the asm-generic/unistd.h, so,
since we will want to know whether either change, we grab both:

  arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h

and

  include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h

If the event 'probe_libc:inet_pton' already exists, this test fails and
deletes the existing event before exiting. This will then pass for any
subsequent executions.

Instead of skipping to deleting the existing event because of failing to
add a new event, a duplicate event is now created and the script
continues with the usual checks. Only the new duplicate event that is
created at the beginning of the test is deleted as a part of the
cleanups in the end. All existing events remain as it is.

This can be observed on a powerpc64 system running Fedora 27 as shown
below.

  # perf probe -x /usr/lib64/power8/libc-2.26.so -a inet_pton

  Added new event:
    probe_libc:inet_pton (on inet_pton in /usr/lib64/power8/libc-2.26.so)

If there is a mismatch in the perf script output, this test fails and
exits before the event and temporary files created during its execution
are cleaned up.

This can be observed on a powerpc64 system running Fedora 27 as shown
below.

  # perf test -v "probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping"

  # perf probe --list

    probe_libc:inet_pton (on __inet_pton@resolv/inet_pton.c in /usr/lib64/power8/libc-2.26.so)

Cleanup of the event and the temporary files are now ensured by allowing
the cleanup code to be executed even if the lines from the backtrace do
not match their expected patterns instead of simply exiting from the
point of failure.
