Calling the function 'machine__new_module' implies a new 'module' will be allocated, when in fact what is returned is a 'struct map' instance, that not necessarily will be instantiated, as if one already exists with the given module name, it will be returned instead. So be consistent with other "find and if not there, create" like functions, like machine__findnew_thread, machine__findnew_dso, etc, and rename it to machine__findnew_module_map(), that in turn will call machine__findnew_module_dso().

Traceevent plugins need dynamic symbols exported from libtraceevent.a, otherwise a dlopen error will occur during plugins loading. This patch uses dynamic-list-file to export dynamic symbols which will be used in plugins to perf executable. The problem is covered up if feature-libpython is enabled, because PYTHON_EMBED_LDOPTS contains '-Xlinker --export-dynamic' which adds all symbols to the dynamic symbol table. So we should reproduce the problem by setting NO_LIBPYTHON=1.

This patch modifies the perf tool to handle the new RECORD type, PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES. The number of lost-sample events is stored in .nr_events[PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES]. The exact number of samples which the kernel dropped is stored in total_lost_samples. When the percentage of dropped samples is greater than 5%, a warning is printed. Here are some examples: Eg 1, Recording different frequently-occurring events is safe with the patch.

PEBS always had the capability to log samples to its buffers without an interrupt. Traditionally perf has not used this but always set the PEBS threshold to one. For frequently occurring events (like cycles or branches or load/store) this in term requires using a relatively high sampling period to avoid overloading the system, by only processing PMIs. This in term increases sampling error. For the common cases we still need to use the PMI because the PEBS hardware has various limitations. The biggest one is that it can not supply a callgraph. It also requires setting a fixed period, as the hardware does not support adaptive period. Another issue is that it cannot supply a time stamp and some other options. To supply a TID it requires flushing on context switch. It can however supply the IP, the load/store address, TSX information, registers, and some other things. So we can make PEBS work for some specific cases, basically as long as you can do without a callgraph and can set the period you can use this new PEBS mode. The main benefit is the ability to support much lower sampling period (down to -c 1000) without extensive overhead. One use cases is for example to increase the resolution of the c2c tool. Another is double checking when you suspect the standard sampling has too much sampling error. Some numbers on the overhead, using cycle soak, comparing the elapsed time from "kernbench -M -H" between plain (threshold set to one) and multi (large threshold). The test command for plain: "perf record --time -e cycles:p -c $period -- kernbench -M -H" The test command for multi: "perf record --no-time -e cycles:p -c $period -- kernbench -M -H" ( The only difference of test command between multi and plain is time stamp options. Since time stamp is not supported by large PEBS threshold, it can be used as a flag to indicate if large threshold is enabled during the test. ) period plain(Sec) multi(Sec) Delta 10003 32.7 16.5 16.2 20003 30.2 16.2 14.0 40003 18.6 14.1 4.5 80003 16.8 14.6 2.2 100003 16.9 14.1 2.8 800003 15.4 15.7 -0.3 1000003 15.3 15.2 0.2 2000003 15.3 15.1 0.1 With periods below 100003, plain (threshold one) cause much more overhead.

When the PEBS interrupt threshold is larger than one record and the machine supports multiple PEBS events, the records of these events are mixed up and we need to demultiplex them. Demuxing the records is hard because the hardware is deficient. The hardware has two issues that, when combined, create impossible scenarios to demux. The first issue is that the 'status' field of the PEBS record is a copy of the GLOBAL_STATUS MSR at PEBS assist time. To see why this is a problem let us first describe the regular PEBS cycle: A) the CTRn value reaches 0: - the corresponding bit in GLOBAL_STATUS gets set - we start arming the hardware assist < some unspecified amount of time later -- this could cover multiple events of interest > B) the hardware assist is armed, any next event will trigger it C) a matching event happens: - the hardware assist triggers and generates a PEBS record this includes a copy of GLOBAL_STATUS at this moment - if we auto-reload we (re)set CTRn - we clear the relevant bit in GLOBAL_STATUS Now consider the following chain of events: A0, B0, A1, C0 The event generated for counter 0 will include a status with counter 1 set, even though its not at all related to the record. A similar thing can happen with a !PEBS event if it just happens to overflow at the right moment. The second issue is that the hardware will only emit one record for two or more counters if the event that triggers the assist is 'close'. The 'close' can be several cycles. In some cases even the complete assist, if the event is something that doesn't need retirement. For instance, consider this chain of events: A0, B0, A1, B1, C01 Where C01 is an event that triggers both hardware assists, we will generate but a single record, but again with both counters listed in the status field. This time the record pertains to both events. Note that these two cases are different but undistinguishable with the data as generated. Therefore demuxing records with multiple PEBS bits (we can safely ignore status bits for !PEBS counters) is impossible. Furthermore we cannot emit the record to both events because that might cause a data leak -- the events might not have the same privileges -- so what this patch does is discard such events. The assumption/hope is that such discards will be rare. Here lists some possible ways you may get high discard rate. - when you count the same thing multiple times. But it is not a useful configuration. - you can be unfortunate if you measure with a userspace only PEBS event along with either a kernel or unrestricted PEBS event. Imagine the event triggering and setting the overflow flag right before entering the kernel. Then all kernel side events will end up with multiple bits set.

When a fixed period is specified, this patch makes perf use the PEBS auto reload mechanism. This makes normal profiling faster, because it avoids one costly MSR write in the PMI handler. However, the reset value will be loaded by hardware assist. There is a small delay compared to the previous non-auto-reload mechanism. The delay time is arbitrary, but very small. The assist cost is 400-800 cycles, assuming common cases with everything cached. The minimum period the patch currently uses is 10000. In that extreme case it can be ~10% if cycles are used.

This patch adds a new branch_sample_type flag to enable filtering branch sampling to indirect jumps. The support is subject to hardware or kernel software support on each architecture. Filtering on indirect jump is useful to study the targets of the jump.

Before patch ba92732e ('perf kmaps: Check kmaps to make code more robust'), 'perf report' and 'perf annotate' will segfault if trace data contains kernel module information like this: # perf report -D -i ./perf.data ... 0 0 0x188 [0x50]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP -1/0: [0xffffffbff1018000(0xf068000) @ 0]: x [test_module] ... # perf report -i ./perf.data --objdump=/path/to/objdump --kallsyms=/path/to/kallsyms perf: Segmentation fault -------- backtrace -------- /path/to/perf[0x503478] /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x3545f)[0x7fb201f3745f] /path/to/perf[0x499b56] /path/to/perf(dso__load_kallsyms+0x13c)[0x49b56c] /path/to/perf(dso__load+0x72e)[0x49c21e] /path/to/perf(map__load+0x6e)[0x4ae9ee] /path/to/perf(thread__find_addr_map+0x24c)[0x47deec] /path/to/perf(perf_event__preprocess_sample+0x88)[0x47e238] /path/to/perf[0x43ad02] /path/to/perf[0x4b55bc] /path/to/perf(ordered_events__flush+0xca)[0x4b57ea] /path/to/perf[0x4b1a01] /path/to/perf(perf_session__process_events+0x3be)[0x4b428e] /path/to/perf(cmd_report+0xf11)[0x43bfc1] /path/to/perf[0x474702] /path/to/perf(main+0x5f5)[0x42de95] /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4)[0x7fb201f23bd4] /path/to/perf[0x42dfc4] This is because __kmod_path__parse treats '[' leading names as kernel name instead of names of kernel module. If perf.data contains build information and the buildid of such modules can be found, the dso->kernel of it will be set to DSO_TYPE_KERNEL by __event_process_build_id(), not kernel module. It will then be passed to dso__load() -> dso__load_kernel_sym() -> dso__load_kcore() if --kallsyms is provided. The refered patch adds NULL pointer checker to avoid segfault. However, such kernel modules are still processed incorrectly. This patch fixes __kmod_path__parse, makes it treat names like '[test_module]' as kernel modules. kmod-path.c is also update to reflect the above changes.

The <fd979c01> commit intruduced the perf_event_sysfs_show function to display the event_str value of an attr in kernel/event/core.c. But the function returns the value with a newline char. So, if a event also carries a event.unit file, when printing the counter data perf tool formatting goes for a spin. That is, because of the event unit, event name is printed in the newline because of perf_event_sysfs_show returns with a newline char. Now fixing perf core will break API, hencing proposing a fix in the perf tool.

Commit 4c859351 ("perf probe: Support glob wildcards for function name") introduces segfault problems when debuginfo is not available: # perf probe 'sys_w*' Added new events: Segmentation fault The first problem resides in find_probe_trace_events_from_map(). In that function, find_probe_functions() is called to match each symbol against glob to find the number of matching functions, but still use map__for_each_symbol_by_name() to find 'struct symbol' for matching functions. Unfortunately, map__for_each_symbol_by_name() does exact matching by searching in an rbtree. It doesn't know glob matching, and not easy for it to support it because it use rbtree based binary search, but we are unable to ensure all names matched by the glob (any glob passed by user) reside in one subtree. This patch drops map__for_each_symbol_by_name(). Since there is no rbtree again, re-matching all symbols costs a lot. This patch avoid it by saving all matching results into an array (syms). The second problem is the lost of tp->realname. In __add_probe_trace_events(), if pev->point.function is glob, the event name should be set to tev->point.realname. This patch ensures its existence by strdup sym->name instead of leaving a NULL pointer there. After this patch: # perf probe 'sys_w*' Added new events: probe:sys_waitid (on sys_w*) probe:sys_wait4 (on sys_w*) probe:sys_waitpid (on sys_w*) probe:sys_write (on sys_w*) probe:sys_writev (on sys_w*) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:sys_writev -aR sleep 1 Signed-off-by: NWang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Acked-by: NMasami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Zefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1432892747-232506-1-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.comSigned-off-by: NArnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

It was inconvenient that perf cannot be quit with SIGINT during processing samples on TUI especially for large data files. This was because the first argument of SLang_init_tty(), abort_char, being 0. The manual says it's the ascii value of the control character that will be used to generate the interrupt signal [1]. Passing -1 means to use the default value (Ctrl-C). However, after processing samples, Ctrl-C was used to in other cases as well - like stepping back from annotate. So recover the original behavior after processing.

Allow nesting into directories without Build file. Currently we force include of the Build file, which fails the build when the Build file is missing. We already support empty *-in.o' objects if there's nothing in the directory to be compiled, so we can just use it for missing Build file cases. Also adding this case under tests.

To make it consistent with the other dso lifetime routines. For instance: struct dso *vdso__new(struct machine *machine, const char *short_name, const char *long_name) Becomes: struct dso *machine__addnew_vdso(struct machine *machine, const char *short_name, const char *long_name) Because: 1) There is no 'struct vdso' for us to have vdso__ prefixed routines. 2) Because it will not really just create a new instance of 'struct dso', it'll call dso__new() but it will also insert it into the DSO's list/rbtree, and we have a method name for that: 'addnew', just like we have dsos__addnew(). 3) So it is really a 'struct machine' operation, it is the first argument, etc. This way the place where this is used gets consistent: if (vdso) { pgoff = 0; - dso = vdso__dso_findnew(machine, thread); + dso = machine__findnew_vdso(machine, thread); } else dso = machine__findnew_dso(machine, filename); Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-r3w3tvh8exm9xfz3p4tz9qbz@git.kernel.orgSigned-off-by: NArnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
