Jiri Olsa ad46e48c65 perf record: Fix crash in pipe mode
Currently we can crash perf record when running in pipe mode, like:

  $ perf record ls | perf report
  # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
  #
  perf: Segmentation fault
  Error:
  The - file has no samples!

The callstack of the crash is:

    0x0000000000515242 in perf_event__synthesize_event_update_name
  3513            ev = event_update_event__new(len + 1, PERF_EVENT_UPDATE__NAME, evsel->id[0]);
  (gdb) bt
  #0  0x0000000000515242 in perf_event__synthesize_event_update_name
  #1  0x00000000005158a4 in perf_event__synthesize_extra_attr
  #2  0x0000000000443347 in record__synthesize
  #3  0x00000000004438e3 in __cmd_record
  #4  0x000000000044514e in cmd_record
  #5  0x00000000004cbc95 in run_builtin
  #6  0x00000000004cbf02 in handle_internal_command
  #7  0x00000000004cc054 in run_argv
  #8  0x00000000004cc422 in main

The reason of the crash is that the evsel does not have ids array
allocated and the pipe's synthesize code tries to access it.

We don't force evsel ids allocation when we have single event, because
it's not needed. However we need it when we are in pipe mode even for
single event as a key for evsel update event.

Fixing this by forcing evsel ids allocation event for single event, when
we are in pipe mode.

Jiri Olsa a18ee796f8 perf tests: Switch trace+probe_libc_inet_pton to use record
There's a problem with relying on backtrace data from 'perf trace' the
way the trace+probe_libc_inet_pton does. This test inserts uprobe within
ping binary and checks that it gets its sample using 'perf trace'.

It also checks it gets proper backtrace from sample and that's where the
issue is.

The 'perf trace' does not sort events (by definition) so it can happen
that it processes the event sample before the ping binary memory map
event. This can (very rarely) happen as proved by this events dump
output (from custom added debug output):

  ...
  7680/7680: [0x7f4e29718000(0x204000) @ 0 fd:00 33611321 4230892504]: r-xp /usr/lib64/libdl-2.17.so
  7680/7680: [0x7f4e29502000(0x216000) @ 0 fd:00 33617257 2606846872]: r-xp /usr/lib64/libz.so.1.2.7
  (IP, 0x2): 7680/7680: 0x7f4e29c2ed60 period: 1 addr: 0
  7680/7680: [0x564842ef0000(0x233000) @ 0 fd:00 83 1989280200]: r-xp /usr/bin/ping
  7680/7680: [0x7f4e2aca2000(0x224000) @ 0 fd:00 33611308 1219144940]: r-xp /usr/lib64/ld-2.17.so
  ...

In this case 'perf trace' fails to resolve the last callchain IP (within
the ping binary) because it does not know about the ping binary memory
map yet and the test fails like this:

  PING ::1(::1) 56 data bytes
  64 bytes from ::1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.037 ms
  --- ::1 ping statistics ---
  1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
  rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.037/0.037/0.037/0.000 ms
  0.000 probe_libc:inet_pton:(7f4e29c2ed60))
  __GI___inet_pton (/usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so)
  getaddrinfo (/usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so)
  [0] ([unknown])
  FAIL: expected backtrace entry 8 ".*\(.*/bin/ping.*\)$" got "[0] ([unknown])"

Switching the test to use 'perf record' and 'perf script' instead of
'perf trace'.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 9c04409d7f perf annotate browser: Be more robust when drawing jump arrows
This first happened with a gcc function, _cpp_lex_token, that has the
usual jumps:

 │1159e6c: ↓ jne    115aa32 <_cpp_lex_token@@Base+0xf92>

I.e. jumps to a label inside that function (_cpp_lex_token), and those
works, but also this kind:

 │1159e8b: ↓ jne    c469be <cpp_named_operator2name@@Base+0xa72>

I.e. jumps to another function, outside _cpp_lex_token, which are not
being correctly handled generating as a side effect references to
ab->offset[] entries that are set to NULL, so to make this code more
robust, check that here.

A proper fix for will be put in place, looking at the function name
right after the '<' token and probably treating this like a 'call'
instruction.

For now just don't draw the arrow.

Jin Yao ab6c79b819 perf stat: Ignore error thread when enabling system-wide --per-thread
If we execute 'perf stat --per-thread' with non-root account (even set
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1 yet), it reports the error:

  jinyao@skl:~$ perf stat --per-thread
  Error:
  You may not have permission to collect system-wide stats.

  Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid,
  which controls use of the performance events system by
  unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN).

  The current value is 2:

    -1: Allow use of (almost) all events by all users
        Ignore mlock limit after perf_event_mlock_kb without CAP_IPC_LOCK
  >= 0: Disallow ftrace function tracepoint by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
        Disallow raw tracepoint access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  >= 1: Disallow CPU event access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  >= 2: Disallow kernel profiling by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN

  To make this setting permanent, edit /etc/sysctl.conf too, e.g.:

          kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1

Perhaps the ptrace rule doesn't allow to trace some processes. But anyway
the global --per-thread mode had better ignore such errors and continue
working on other threads.

This patch will record the index of error thread in perf_evsel__open()
and remove this thread before retrying.

For example (run with non-root, kernel.perf_event_paranoid isn't set):

  jinyao@skl:~$ perf stat --per-thread

Kan Liang 853745f5e6 perf top: Fix annoying fallback message on older kernels
On older (e.g. v4.4) kernels, an annoying fallback message can be
observed in 'perf top':

	┌─Warning:──────────────────────┐
	│fall back to non-overwrite mode│
	│                               │
	│                               │
	│Press any key...               │
	└───────────────────────────────┘

The 'perf top' utility has been changed to overwrite mode since commit
ebebbf0823 ("perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite mode").

For older kernels which don't have overwrite mode support, 'perf top'
will fall back to non-overwrite mode and print out the fallback message
using ui__warning(), which needs user's input to close.

The fallback message is not critical for end users. Turning it to debug
message which is printed when running with -vv.

weiping zhang 25f72f9ed8 perf cgroup: Simplify arguments when tracking multiple events
When using -G with one cgroup and -e with multiple events, only the
first event gets the correct cgroup setting, all events from the second
onwards will track system-wide events.

If the user wants to track multiple events for a specific cgroup, the
user must give parameters like the following:

  $ perf stat -e e1 -e e2 -e e3 -G test,test,test

This patch simplify this case, just type one cgroup:

  $ perf stat -e e1 -e e2 -e e3 -G test

  $ mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/perf_event/empty_cgroup
  $ perf stat -e cycles -e cache-misses -a -I 1000 -G empty_cgroup

Before:

     1.001007226   <not counted>      cycles	   empty_cgroup
     1.001007226           7,506      cache-misses

After:

     1.000834097   <not counted>      cycles	   empty_cgroup
     1.000834097   <not counted>      cache-misses empty_cgroup

First, all man pages highlight only perf and subcommands except 'perf

Second, options can be ommited when executing 'perf kallsyms', so add

Jaroslav Škarvada 66dfdff03d perf tools: Add Python 3 support
Added Python 3 support while keeping Python 2.7 compatibility.

Committer notes:

This doesn't make it to auto detect python 3, one has to explicitely ask
it to build with python 3 devel files, here are the instructions
provided by Jaroslav:

 ---
  $ cp -a tools/perf tools/python3-perf
  $ make V=1 prefix=/usr -C tools/perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 all
  $ make V=1 prefix=/usr -C tools/python3-perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 all
  $ make V=1 prefix=/usr -C tools/python3-perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 DESTDIR=%{buildroot} install-python_ext
  $ make V=1 prefix=/usr -C tools/perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 DESTDIR=%{buildroot} install-python_ext
 ---

We need to make this automatic, just like the existing tests for checking if
the python2 devel files are in place, allowing the build with python3 if
available, fallbacking to python2 and then just disabling it if none are
available.

So, using the PYTHON variable to build it using O= we get:

Before this patch:

  $ rpm -q python3 python3-devel
  python3-3.6.4-7.fc27.x86_64
  python3-devel-3.6.4-7.fc27.x86_64
  $ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf/ ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ; make O=/tmp/build/perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 -C tools/perf install-bin
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
  <SNIP>
  Makefile.config:670: Python 3 is not yet supported; please set
  Makefile.config:671: PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG appropriately.
  Makefile.config:672: If you also have Python 2 installed, then
  Makefile.config:673: try something like:
  Makefile.config:674:
  Makefile.config:675:   make PYTHON=python2
  Makefile.config:676:
  Makefile.config:677: Otherwise, disable Python support entirely:
  Makefile.config:678:
  Makefile.config:679:   make NO_LIBPYTHON=1
  Makefile.config:680:
  Makefile.config:681: *** .  Stop.
  make[1]: *** [Makefile.perf:212: sub-make] Error 2
  make: *** [Makefile:110: install-bin] Error 2
  make: Leaving directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
  $

After:

  $ make O=/tmp/build/perf PYTHON=python3 -C tools/perf install-bin
  $ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep python
	libpython3.6m.so.1.0 => /lib64/libpython3.6m.so.1.0 (0x00007f58a31e8000)
  $ rpm -qf /lib64/libpython3.6m.so.1.0
  python3-libs-3.6.4-7.fc27.x86_64
  $

Now verify that when using the binding the right ELF file is loaded,
using perf trace:

  $ perf trace -e open* perf test python
     0.051 ( 0.016 ms): perf/3927 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC           ) = 3
<SNIP>
  18: 'import perf' in python                               :
     8.849 ( 0.013 ms): sh/3929 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC           ) = 3
<SNIP>
    25.572 ( 0.008 ms): python3/3931 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.cpython-36m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
<SNIP>
 Ok
<SNIP>
  $

And using tools/perf/python/twatch.py, to show PERF_RECORD_ metaevents:

  $ python3 tools/perf/python/twatch.py

On the example above, I specified the function filter 'abcdefg' but all
functions are enabled. The expected result is for all functions to be
filtered, since there is no such function ('abcdefg')

The original fix is to make the kernel support '\0' as end of string:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/1/16/116

But above fix cannot be compatible with old kernels. Then Namhyung Kim
suggest adding a space after function name.

This patch will append an '\n' when write tracing file. After this fix,
the perf will report correct error state. Also let it print an error if
reset_tracing_files() fails.

Committer testing:

Now it prints:

  # perf ftrace -a --graph-depth 1 --graph-funcs abcdefg
  failed to set tracing filters
  #

And for an existing function:

  # perf ftrace -a --graph-depth 1 --graph-funcs SyS_open

Namhyung Kim 1d12cec6ce perf machine: Fix paranoid check in machine__set_kernel_mmap()
The machine__set_kernel_mmap() is to setup addresses of the kernel map
using external info.  But it has a check when the address is given from
an incorrect input which should have the start and end address of 0
(i.e. machine__process_kernel_mmap_event).

But we also use the end address of 0 for a valid input so change it to
check both start and end addresses.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 21316ac680 perf tests shell lib: Use a wildcard to remove the vfs_getname probe
In some situations the vfs_getname is being added both as requested and
with a _1 suffix (inlines?):

  probe:vfs_getname_1  (on getname_flags:63@acme/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname)

This ends up making the cleanup to miss that one, as it removes just
'probe:vfs_getname', which makes the second test to use this probe point
to fail, since it finds that leftover from the first test, use a
wildcard to remove both.

Before:

  # perf test 60 61 62 63
  60: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames   : FAILED!
  61: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping       : Ok
  62: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: FAILED!
  63: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames   : Ok

After:

  # perf test 60 61 62 63
  60: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames   : Ok
  61: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping       : Ok

Thomas Richter 0f19a038af perf test: Fix test case inet_pton to accept inlines.
Using Fedora 27 and latest Linux kernel the test case
trace+probe_libc_inet_pton.sh fails again on s390.  This time is the
inlining of functions which does not match.  After an update of the
glibc (from 2.26-16 to 2.26-24) the output is different

The expected output is:

             __inet_pton (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
             gaih_inet (inlined)
             ....

The actual output is:

  1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
  rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.061/0.061/0.061/0.000 ms
       0.000 probe_libc:inet_pton:(3ffb2140448))
             __inet_pton (inlined)
             gaih_inet.constprop.7 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
             ...

Fix this by being less strict on 'inlined' verses library name and
accept both

Thomas Richter 4cb7d3ecfc perf cpuid: Introduce a platform specific cpuid compare function
The function get_cpuid_str() is called by perf_pmu__getcpuid() and on
s390 returns a complete description of the CPU and its capabilities,
which is a comma separated list.

To map the CPU type with the value defined in the
pmu-events/arch/s390/mapfile.csv, introduce an architecture specific
cpuid compare function named strcmp_cpuid_str()

The currently used regex algorithm is defined as the weak default and
will be used if no platform specific one is defined. This matches the
current behavior.

For the cumulative output, we allocate the he_cache array based on the
--max-stack option value and populate it with data from 'callchain_cursor'.

The --max-stack option value does not ensure now the limit for number of
callchain_cursor nodes, so the cumulative iter code will allocate smaller array
than it's actually needed and cause above corruption.

I think the --max-stack limit does not apply here anyway, because we add
callchain data as normal hist entries, while the --max-stack control the limit
of single entry callchain depth.

Using the callchain_cursor.nr as he_cache array count to fix this. Also
removing struct hist_entry_iter::max_stack, because there's no longer any use
for it.

We need more fixes to ensure that the branch stack code follows properly the
logic of --max-stack, which is not the case at the moment.

Jin Yao b40982e846 perf report: Fix wrong jump arrow
When we use perf report interactive annotate view, we can see
the position of jump arrow is not correct. For example,

1. perf record -b ...
2. perf report
3. In interactive mode, select Annotate 'function'

       │   │                    s_randseed = time(0);

The jump arrow in above example is not correct. It should add the
width of IPC and Cycle.

With this patch, the result is:

Committer notes:

Please note that only from LBRv5 (according to Jiri) onwards, i.e. >=
Skylake is that we'll have the cycles counts in each branch record
entry, so to see the Cycles and IPC columns, and be able to test this
patch, one need a capable hardware.

While applying this I first tested it on a Broadwell class machine and
couldn't get those columns, will add code to the annotate browser to
warn the user about that, i.e. you have branch records, but no cycles,
use a more recent hardware to get the cycles and IPC columns.

Robert Walker 256e751cac perf inject: Emit instruction records on ETM trace discontinuity
There may be discontinuities in the ETM trace stream due to overflows or
ETM configuration for selective trace.  This patch emits an instruction
sample with the pending branch stack when a TRACE ON packet occurs
indicating a discontinuity in the trace data.

A new packet type CS_ETM_TRACE_ON is added, which is emitted by the low
level decoder when a TRACE ON occurs.  The higher level decoder flushes
the branch stack when this packet is emitted.

Robert Walker e573e978fb perf cs-etm: Inject capabilitity for CoreSight traces
Added user space perf functionality to translate CoreSight traces into
instruction events with branch stack.

To invoke the new functionality, use the perf inject tool with
--itrace=il. For example, to translate the ETM trace from perf.data into
last branch records in a new inj.data file:

    $ perf inject --itrace=i100000il128 -i perf.data -o perf.data.new

The 'i' parameter to itrace generates periodic instruction events.  The
period between instruction events can be specified as a number of
instructions suffixed by i (default 100000).

The parameter to 'l' specifies the number of entries in the branch stack
attached to instruction events.

The 'b' parameter to itrace generates events on taken branches.

This patch also fixes the contents of the branch events used in perf
report - previously branch events were generated for each contiguous
range of instructions executed.  These are fixed to generate branch
events between the last address of a range ending in an executed branch
instruction and the start address of the next range.

Based on patches by Sebastian Pop <s.pop@samsung.com> with additional fixes
and support for specifying the instruction period.

Jin Yao 147c508f30 perf tools: Use target->per_thread and target->system_wide flags
Mathieu Poirier reports issue in commit ("73c0ca1eee3d perf thread_map:
Enumerate all threads from /proc") that it has negative impact on 'perf
record --per-thread'. It has the effect of creating a kernel event for
each thread in the system for 'perf record --per-thread'.

Mathieu Poirier's patch ("perf util: Do not reuse target->per_thread flag")
can fix this issue by creating a new target->all_threads flag.

This patch is based on Mathieu Poirier's patch but it doesn't use a new
target->all_threads flag. This patch just uses 'target->per_thread &&
target->system_wide' as a condition to check for all threads case.

Jiri Olsa ab6e9a9934 perf tests: Use arch__compare_symbol_names to compare symbols
The symbol search called by machine__find_kernel_symbol_by_name is using
internally arch__compare_symbol_names function to compare 2 symbol
names, because different archs have different ways of comparing symbols.
Mostly for skipping '.' prefixes and similar.

In test 1 when we try to find matching symbols in kallsyms and vmlinux,
by address and by symbol name. When either is found we compare the pair
symbol names  by simple strcmp, which is not good enough for reasons
explained in previous paragraph.

On powerpc this can cause lockup, because even thought we found the
pair, the compared names are different and don't match simple strcmp.
Following code path is executed, that leads to lockup:

   - we find the pair in kallsyms by sym->start
next_pair:
   - we compare the names and it fails
   - we find the pair by sym->name
   - the pair addresses match so we call goto next_pair
     because we assume the names match in this case
