Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo df8350ed56 perf probe: Set pev->nargs to zero after freeing pev->args entries
So that, when perf_add_probe_events() fails, like in:

  # perf probe icmp_rcv:64 "type=icmph->type"
  Failed to find 'icmph' in this function.
    Error: Failed to add events.
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)
  #

We don't segfault.

clear_perf_probe_event() was zeroing the whole pev, and since the switch
to zfree() for the members in the pev, that memset() was removed, which
left nargs with its original value, in the above case 1.

With the memset the same pev could be passed to clear_perf_probe_event()
multiple times, since all it would have would be zeroes, and free()
accepts zero, the loop would not happen and we would just memset it
again to zeroes.

Without it we got that segfault, so zero nargs to keep it like it was,
next cset will avoid calling clear_perf_probe_event() for the same pevs
in case of failure.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo d8f9da2404 perf tools: Use zfree() where applicable
In places where the equivalent was already being done, i.e.:

   free(a);
   a = NULL;

And in placs where struct members are being freed so that if we have
some erroneous reference to its struct, then accesses to freed members
will result in segfaults, which we can detect faster than use after free
to areas that may still have something seemingly valid.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 3052ba56bc tools perf: Move from sane_ctype.h obtained from git to the Linux's original
We got the sane_ctype.h headers from git and kept using it so far, but
since that code originally came from the kernel sources to the git
sources, perhaps its better to just use the one in the kernel, so that
we can leverage tools/perf/check_headers.sh to be notified when our copy
gets out of sync, i.e. when fixes or goodies are added to the code we've
copied.

This will help with things like tools/lib/string.c where we want to have
more things in common with the kernel, such as strim(), skip_spaces(),
etc so as to go on removing the things that we have in tools/perf/util/
and instead using the code in the kernel, indirectly and removing things
like EXPORT_SYMBOL(), etc, getting notified when fixes and improvements
are made to the original code.

Hopefully this also should help with reducing the difference of code
hosted in tools/ to the one in the kernel proper.

Masami Hiramatsu 1e032f7cfa perf-probe: Add user memory access attribute support
Add user memory access attribute for kprobe event arguments.
If a given 'local variable' is in user-space, User can
specify memory access method by '@user' suffix. This is
not only for string but also for data structure.

If we access a field of data structure in user memory from
kernel on some arch, it will fail. e.g.

 perf probe -a "sched_setscheduler param->sched_priority"

This will fail to access the "param->sched_priority" because
the param is __user pointer. Instead, we can now specify
@user suffix for such argument.

 perf probe -a "sched_setscheduler param->sched_priority@user"

Note that kernel memory access with "@user" must always fail
on any arch.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 4d6101f5fd perf probe: Clarify error message about not finding kernel modules debuginfo
'perf probe' supports using just the kernel module name, but that will

  #

After:

    Error: Failed to show lines.
  # perf probe -m /lib/modules/5.0.0-rc7+/kernel/net/sched/cls_flower.ko -L fl_change | head -7
  <fl_change@/home/acme/git/linux/net/sched/cls_flower.c:0>

Go over the tools/ files that are maintained in Arnaldo's tree and
fix common typos: half of them were in comments, the other half
in JSON files.

No change in functionality intended.

Committer notes:

This was split from a larger patch as there are code that is,
additionally, maintained outside the kernel tree, so to ease
cherry-picking and/or backporting, split this into multiple patches.

Just typos in comments, no need to backport, reducing the possibility of
possible backporting artifacts.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 3183f8ca30 perf symbols: Unify symbol maps
Remove the split of symbol tables for data (MAP__VARIABLE) and for
functions (MAP__FUNCTION), its unneeded and there were various places
doing two lookups to find a symbol, so simplify this.

We still will consider only the symbols that matched the filters in
place, i.e. see the (elf_(sec,sym)|symbol_type)__filter() routines in
the patch, just so that we consider only the same symbols as before,
to reduce the possibility of regressions.

All the tests on 50-something build environments, in varios versions
of lots of distros and cross build environments were performed without
build regressions, as usual with all pull requests the other tests were
also performed: 'perf test' and 'make -C tools/perf build-test'.

Also this was done at a great granularity so that regressions can be
bisected more easily.

Masami Hiramatsu c588d15812 perf probe: Support escaped character in parser
Support the special characters escaped by '\' in parser.  This allows
user to specify versions directly like below.

  =====
  # ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state\\@GLIBC_2.2.5
  Added new event:
    probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state@GLIBC_2.2.5 in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe_libc:malloc_get_state -aR sleep 1

  =====

Or, you can use separators in source filename, e.g.

  =====
  # ./perf probe -x /opt/test/a.out foo+bar.c:3
  Semantic error :There is non-digit character in offset.
    Error: Command Parse Error.
  =====

Usually "+" in source file cause parser error, but

  =====
  # ./perf probe -x /opt/test/a.out foo\\+bar.c:4
  Added new event:
    probe_a:main         (on @foo+bar.c:4 in /opt/test/a.out)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe_a:main -aR sleep 1
  =====

escaped "\+" allows you to specify that.

Masami Hiramatsu 4b3a2716dd perf probe: Find versioned symbols from map
Commit d80406453a ("perf symbols: Allow user probes on versioned
symbols") allows user to find default versioned symbols (with "@@") in
map. However, it did not enable normal versioned symbol (with "@") for
perf-probe.  E.g.

  =====
  # ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state
  Failed to find symbol malloc_get_state in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so
    Error: Failed to add events.
  =====

This solves above issue by improving perf-probe symbol search function,
as below.

  =====
  # ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state
  Added new event:
    probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe_libc:malloc_get_state -aR sleep 1

  # ./perf probe -l
    probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state@GLIBC_2.2.5 in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)

Masami Hiramatsu e63c625a1e perf probe: Add __return suffix for return events
Add __return suffix for function return events automatically. Without
this, user have to give --force option and will see the number suffix
for each event like "function_1", which is not easy to recognize.
Instead, this adds __return suffix to it automatically.  E.g.

  =====
  # ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so 'malloc*%return'

Masami Hiramatsu a3110cd9d0 perf probe: Cut off the version suffix from event name
Cut off the version suffix (e.g. @GLIBC_2.2.5 etc.) from automatic
generated event name. This fixes wildcard event adding like below case;

  =====
  # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc*
  Internal error: "malloc_get_state@GLIBC_2" is wrong event name.

Li Bin 2c29461e27 perf probe: Fix kprobe blacklist checking condition
The commit 9aaf5a5f47 ("perf probe: Check kprobes blacklist when
adding new events"), 'perf probe' supports checking the blacklist of the
fuctions which can not be probed.  But the checking condition is wrong,
that the end_addr of the symbol which is the start_addr of the next
symbol can't be included.

Committer notes:

IOW make it match its kernel counterpart in kernel/kprobes.c:

  bool within_kprobe_blacklist(unsigned long addr)

Each entry have as its end address not its end address, but the first
address _outside_ that symbol, which for related functions, is the first
address of the next symbol, like these from kernel/trace/trace_probe.c:

0xffffffffbd198df0-0xffffffffbd198e40	print_type_u8
0xffffffffbd198e40-0xffffffffbd198e90	print_type_u16
0xffffffffbd198e90-0xffffffffbd198ee0	print_type_u32
0xffffffffbd198ee0-0xffffffffbd198f30	print_type_u64
0xffffffffbd198f30-0xffffffffbd198f80	print_type_s8
0xffffffffbd198f80-0xffffffffbd198fd0	print_type_s16
0xffffffffbd198fd0-0xffffffffbd199020	print_type_s32
0xffffffffbd199020-0xffffffffbd199070	print_type_s64
0xffffffffbd199070-0xffffffffbd1990c0	print_type_x8
0xffffffffbd1990c0-0xffffffffbd199110	print_type_x16
0xffffffffbd199110-0xffffffffbd199160	print_type_x32
0xffffffffbd199160-0xffffffffbd1991b0	print_type_x64

But not always:

0xffffffffbd1997b0-0xffffffffbd1997c0	fetch_kernel_stack_address (kernel/trace/trace_probe.c)
0xffffffffbd1c57f0-0xffffffffbd1c58b0	__context_tracking_enter   (kernel/context_tracking.c)

Björn Töpel 7598f8bc13 perf probe: Fix probe definition for inlined functions
In commit 613f050d68 ("perf probe: Fix to probe on gcc generated
functions in modules"), the offset from symbol is, incorrectly, added
to the trace point address. This leads to incorrect probe trace points
for inlined functions and when using relative line number on symbols.

Prior this patch:
  $ perf probe -m nf_nat -D in_range
  p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range.isra.9+0
  $ perf probe -m i40e -D i40e_clean_rx_irq
  p:probe/i40e_clean_rx_irq i40e:i40e_napi_poll+2212
  $ perf probe -m i40e -D i40e_clean_rx_irq:16
  p:probe/i40e_clean_rx_irq i40e:i40e_lan_xmit_frame+626

After:
  $ perf probe -m nf_nat -D in_range
  p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range.isra.9+0
  $ perf probe -m i40e -D i40e_clean_rx_irq
  p:probe/i40e_clean_rx_irq i40e:i40e_napi_poll+1106
  $ perf probe -m i40e -D i40e_clean_rx_irq:16
  p:probe/i40e_clean_rx_irq i40e:i40e_napi_poll+2665

Committer testing:

Using 'pfunct', a tool found in the 'dwarves' package [1], one can ask what are
the functions that while not being explicitely marked as inline, were inlined
by the compiler:

  # pfunct --cc_inlined /lib/modules/4.12.0-rc4+/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/e1000e.ko | head
  __ew32
  e1000_regdump
  e1000e_dump_ps_pages
  e1000_desc_unused
  e1000e_systim_to_hwtstamp
  e1000e_rx_hwtstamp
  e1000e_update_rdt_wa
  e1000e_update_tdt_wa
  e1000_put_txbuf
  e1000_consume_page

Then ask 'perf probe' to produce the kprobe_tracer probe definitions for two of
them:

  # perf probe -m e1000e -D e1000e_rx_hwtstamp
  p:probe/e1000e_rx_hwtstamp e1000e:e1000_receive_skb+74

  # perf probe -m e1000e -D e1000_consume_page
  p:probe/e1000_consume_page e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+876
  p:probe/e1000_consume_page_1 e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+1506
  p:probe/e1000_consume_page_2 e1000e:e1000_clean_rx_irq_ps+1074

Now lets concentrate on the 'e1000_consume_page' one, that was inlined twice in
e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq(), lets see what readelf says about the DWARF tags for
that function:

  $ readelf -wi /lib/modules/4.12.0-rc4+/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/e1000e.ko
  <SNIP>
  <1><13e27b>: Abbrev Number: 121 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
    <13e27c>   DW_AT_name        : (indirect string, offset: 0xa8945): e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq
    <13e287>   DW_AT_low_pc      : 0x17a30
  <3><13e6ef>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine)
    <13e6f0>   DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0x13ed2c>
    <13e6f4>   DW_AT_low_pc      : 0x17be6
  <SNIP>
  <1><13ed2c>: Abbrev Number: 142 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
     <13ed2e>   DW_AT_name        : (indirect string, offset: 0xa54c3): e1000_consume_page

So, the first time in e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq() where e1000_consume_page() is
inlined is at PC 0x17be6, which subtracted from e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq()'s
address, gives us the offset we should use in the probe definition:

  0x17be6 - 0x17a30 = 438

but above we have 876, which is twice as much.

Lets see the second inline expansion of e1000_consume_page() in
e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq():

  <3><13e86e>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine)
    <13e86f>   DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0x13ed2c>
    <13e873>   DW_AT_low_pc      : 0x17d21

  0x17d21 - 0x17a30 = 753

So we where adding it at twice the offset from the containing function as we
should.

And then after this patch:

  # perf probe -m e1000e -D e1000e_rx_hwtstamp
  p:probe/e1000e_rx_hwtstamp e1000e:e1000_receive_skb+37

  # perf probe -m e1000e -D e1000_consume_page
  p:probe/e1000_consume_page e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+438
  p:probe/e1000_consume_page_1 e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+753
  p:probe/e1000_consume_page_2 e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+1353
  #

Which matches the two first expansions and shows that because we were
doubling the offset it would spill over the next function:

  readelf -sw /lib/modules/4.12.0-rc4+/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/e1000e.ko
   673: 0000000000017a30  1626 FUNC    LOCAL  DEFAULT    2 e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq
   674: 0000000000018090  2013 FUNC    LOCAL  DEFAULT    2 e1000_clean_rx_irq_ps

This is the 3rd inline expansion of e1000_consume_page() in
e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq():

   <3><13ec77>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine)
    <13ec78>   DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0x13ed2c>
    <13ec7c>   DW_AT_low_pc      : 0x17f79

  0x17f79 - 0x17a30 = 1353

 So:

   0x17a30 + 2 * 1353 = 0x184c2

  And:

   0x184c2 - 0x18090 = 1074

Which explains the bogus third expansion for e1000_consume_page() to end up at:

   p:probe/e1000_consume_page_2 e1000e:e1000_clean_rx_irq_ps+1074

All fixed now :-)

Ravi Bangoria 2e1f8f7895 perf probe: Change MAX_CMDLEN
There are many SDT markers in powerpc whose uprobe definition goes
beyond current MAX_CMDLEN, especially when target filename is long and
sdt marker has long list of arguments. For example, definition of sdt
marker

  method__compile__end: 8@17 8@9 8@10 -4@8 8@7 -4@6 8@5 -4@4 1@37(28)

from file

  /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.91-2.b14.fc22.ppc64/jre/lib/ppc64/server/libjvm.so

is

  p:sdt_hotspot/method__compile__end /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-\
    1.8.0.91-2.b14.fc22.ppc64/jre/lib/ppc64/server/libjvm.so:0x4c4e00\
    arg1=%gpr17:u64 arg2=%gpr9:u64 arg3=%gpr10:u64 arg4=%gpr8:s32\
    arg5=%gpr7:u64 arg6=%gpr6:s32 arg7=%gpr5:u64 arg8=%gpr4:s32\
    arg9=+37(%gpr28):u8

'perf probe' fails with segfault for such markers. As the uprobe_events
file accepts definitions up to 4094 characters(4096 - 2 (\n\0)),
increase value of MAX_CMDLEN match that.

Naveen N. Rao 7ab31d94bf perf kretprobes: Offset from reloc_sym if kernel supports it
We indicate support for accepting sym+offset with kretprobes through a
line in ftrace README. Parse the same to identify support and choose the
appropriate format for kprobe_events.

As an example, without this perf patch, but with the ftrace changes:

  naveen@ubuntu:~/linux/tools/perf$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/README | grep kretprobe
  place (kretprobe): [<module>:]<symbol>[+<offset>]|<memaddr>

  Added new events:
    probe:do_open        (on do_open%return)
    probe:do_open_1      (on do_open%return)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe:do_open_1 -aR sleep 1

  naveen@ubuntu:~/linux/tools/perf$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/list

Masami Hiramatsu 613f050d68 perf probe: Fix to probe on gcc generated functions in modules
Fix to probe on gcc generated functions on modules. Since
probing on a module is based on its symbol name, it should
be adjusted on actual symbols.

E.g. without this fix, perf probe shows probe definition
on non-exist symbol as below.

  $ perf probe -m build-x86_64/net/netfilter/nf_nat.ko -F in_range*
  in_range.isra.12
  $ perf probe -m build-x86_64/net/netfilter/nf_nat.ko -D in_range
  p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range+0

With this fix, perf probe correctly shows a probe on
gcc-generated symbol.

  $ perf probe -m build-x86_64/net/netfilter/nf_nat.ko -D in_range
  p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range.isra.12+0

This also fixes same problem on online module as below.

  $ perf probe -m i915 -D assert_plane
  p:probe/assert_plane i915:assert_plane.constprop.134+0

Masami Hiramatsu 8a937a25a7 perf probe: Fix to probe on gcc generated symbols for offline kernel
Fix perf-probe to show probe definition on gcc generated symbols for
offline kernel (including cross-arch kernel image).

gcc sometimes optimizes functions and generate new symbols with suffixes
such as ".constprop.N" or ".isra.N" etc. Since those symbol names are
not recorded in DWARF, we have to find correct generated symbols from
offline ELF binary to probe on it (kallsyms doesn't correct it).  For
online kernel or uprobes we don't need it because those are rebased on
_text, or a section relative address.

E.g. Without this:

  $ perf probe -k build-arm/vmlinux -F __slab_alloc*
  __slab_alloc.constprop.9
  $ perf probe -k build-arm/vmlinux -D __slab_alloc
  p:probe/__slab_alloc __slab_alloc+0

If you put above definition on target machine, it should fail
because there is no __slab_alloc in kallsyms.

With this fix, perf probe shows correct probe definition on
__slab_alloc.constprop.9:

  $ perf probe -k build-arm/vmlinux -D __slab_alloc
  p:probe/__slab_alloc __slab_alloc.constprop.9+0

Fix --funcs (-F) option to show correct symbols for offline module.
Since previous perf-probe uses machine__findnew_module_map() for offline
module, even if user passes a module file (with full path) which is for
other architecture, perf-probe always tries to load symbol map for
current kernel module.

This fix uses dso__new_map() to load the map from given binary as same
as a map for user applications.

Since 'perf probe' supports cross-arch probes, it is possible to analyze
different arch kernel image which has different bits-per-long.

In that case, it fails to get the module name because it uses the
MOD_NAME_OFFSET macro based on the host machine bits-per-long, instead
of the target arch bits-per-long.

This fixes above issue by changing modname-offset based on the target
archs bit width. This is ok because linux kernel uses LP64 model on
64bit arch.

E.g. without this (on x86_64, and target module is arm32):

  $ perf probe -m build-arm/fs/configfs/configfs.ko -D configfs_lookup
  p:probe/configfs_lookup :configfs_lookup+0
                          ^-Here is an empty module name.

With this fix, you can see correct module name:

  $ perf probe -m build-arm/fs/configfs/configfs.ko -D configfs_lookup
  p:probe/configfs_lookup configfs:configfs_lookup+0

Colin Ian King ead1a57457 perf probe: Check if *ptr2 is zero and not ptr2
Static anaylsis with cppcheck[1] detected an incorrect comparison:
[tools/perf/util/probe-event.c:216]: (warning) Char literal compared
with pointer 'ptr2'. Did you intend to dereference it?

Dereference ptr2 for the comparison to fix this.
