      perf tools: Optimize sample parsing for ordered events · 93d10af2
      Jiri Olsa 提交于
      Currently when using ordered events we parse the sample twice (the
      perf_evlist__parse_sample function). Once before we queue the sample for
      sorting:
      
        perf_session__process_event
          perf_evlist__parse_sample(sample)
          perf_session__queue_event(sample.time)
      
      And then when we deliver the sorted sample:
      
        ordered_events__deliver_event
          perf_evlist__parse_sample
          perf_session__deliver_event
      
      We can skip the initial full sample parsing by using
      perf_evlist__parse_sample_timestamp function, which got introduced
      earlier. The new path looks like:
      
        perf_session__process_event
          perf_evlist__parse_sample_timestamp
          perf_session__queue_event
      
        ordered_events__deliver_event
          perf_session__deliver_event
            perf_evlist__parse_sample
      
      It saves some instructions and is slightly faster:
      
      Before:
       Performance counter stats for './perf.old report --stdio' (5 runs):
      
          64,396,007,225      cycles:u                                                      ( +-  0.97% )

      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 buildid-list: Fix crash when processing PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACE · 7f0cd236
      Namhyung Kim 提交于
      Thomas reported that 'perf buildid-list' gets a SEGFAULT due to NULL
      pointer deref when he ran it on a data with namespace events.  It was
      because the buildid_id__mark_dso_hit_ops lacks the namespace event
      handler and perf_too__fill_default() didn't set it.

      perf tools: Add feature header record to pipe-mode · e9def1b2
      David Carrillo-Cisneros 提交于
      Add header record types to pipe-mode, reusing the functions
      used in file-mode and leveraging the new struct feat_fd.
      
      For alignment, check that synthesized events don't exceed
      pagesize.
      
      Add the perf_event__synthesize_feature event call back to
      process the new header records.

      perf inject: Copy events when reordering events in pipe mode · 1e0d4f02
      David Carrillo-Cisneros 提交于
      __perf_session__process_pipe_events reuses the same memory buffer to
      process all events in the pipe.
      
      When reordering is needed (e.g. -b option), events are not immediately
      flushed, but kept around until reordering is possible, causing
      memory corruption.
      
      The problem is usually observed by a "Unknown sample error" output. It
      can easily be reproduced by:
      
        perf record -o - noploop | perf inject -b > output
      
      Committer testing:
      
      Before:
      
        $ perf record -o - stress -t 2 -c 2 | perf inject -b > /dev/null
        stress: info: [8297] dispatching hogs: 2 cpu, 0 io, 0 vm, 0 hdd

        Is this an older tool processing a perf.data file generated by a more recent tool?

      perf tools: Handle partial AUX records and print a warning · 05a1f47e
      Alexander Shishkin 提交于
      This patch decodes the 'partial' flag in AUX records and prints
      a warning to the user, so that they don't have to guess why their
      PT traces contain gaps (or missing altogether):
      
        Warning:
        AUX data had gaps in it 8 times out of 8!
      
        Are you running a KVM guest in the background?
      
      Trying to be even more helpful, we will detect if the user's kvm driver sets up
      exclusive VMX root mode for the entire lifespan of the kvm process:
      
        Reloading kvm_intel module with vmm_exclusive=0
        will reduce the gaps to only guest's timeslices.
      
      Note however, that you'll still have gaps in cpu-wide traces even with
      vmm_exclusive=0, but the number of gaps will be below 100% (as opposed to the
      above example).
      
      Currently this is the only reason for partial records.

      Hari Bathini 提交于
      Introduce a new option to record PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES events emitted
      by the kernel when fork, clone, setns or unshare are invoked. And update
      perf-record documentation with the new option to record namespace
      events.
      
      Committer notes:
      
      Combined it with a later patch to allow printing it via 'perf report -D'
      and be able to test the feature introduced in this patch. Had to move
      here also perf_ns__name(), that was introduced in another later patch.

      perf tools: Add time conversion event · 46bc29b9
      Adrian Hunter 提交于
      Intel PT uses the time members from the perf_event_mmap_page to convert
      between TSC and perf time.
      
      Due to a lack of foresight when Intel PT was implemented, those time
      members were recorded in the (implementation dependent) AUXTRACE_INFO
      event, the structure of which is generally inaccessible outside of the
      Intel PT decoder.  However now the conversion between TSC and perf time
      is needed when processing a jitdump file when Intel PT has been used for
      tracing.
      
      So add a user event to record the time members.  'perf record' will
      synthesize the event if the information is available.  And session
      processing will put a copy of the event on the session so that tools
      like 'perf inject' can easily access it.

      perf kvm record/report: 'unprocessable sample' error while recording/reporting guest data · 3caeaa56
      Ravi Bangoria 提交于
      While recording guest samples in host using perf kvm record, it will
      populate unprocessable sample error, though samples will be recorded
      properly. While generating report using perf kvm report, no samples will
      be processed and same error will populate. We have seen this behaviour
      with upstream perf(4.4-rc3) on x86 and ppc64 hardware.
      
      Reason behind this failure is, when it tries to fetch machine from
      rb_tree of machines, it fails. As a part of tracing a bug, we figured
      out that this code was incorrectly refactored in commit 54245fdc
      ("perf session: Remove wrappers to machines__find").
      
      This patch will change the functionality such that if it can't fetch
      machine in first trial, it will create one node of machine and add that to
      rb_tree. So next time when it tries to fetch same machine from rb_tree,
      it won't fail. Actually it was the case before refactoring of code in
      aforementioned commit.
      
      This patch is generated from acme perf/core branch.
      
      Below I've mention an example that demonstrate the behaviour before and
      after applying patch.
      
      Before applying patch:
      [Note: One needs to run guest before recording data in host]
