When an IP with an unresolved symbol occurs in the callchain more than
once (ie. recursion), then duplicate symbols can be created because
the callchain nodes are never updated after they are first created.
To fix this issue we call dso__find_symbol whenever we encounter a NULL
symbol, in case we already added a symbol at that IP since we started
traversing the callchain.
This change prevents duplicate symbols from being exported when duplicate
IPs are present in the callchain.

The current method for inserting symbols is to use the symbols__insert()
function. However symbols__insert() does not update the dso symbol
cache. This causes problems in the following scenario:
1. symbol not found at addr using dso__find_symbol
2. symbol inserted at addr using the existing symbols__insert function
3. symbol still not found at addr using dso__find_symbol() because cache isn't
updated. This is undesired behavior.
The undesired behavior in (3) is addressed by creating a new function,
dso__insert_symbol() to both insert the symbol and update the symbol
cache if necessary.
If dso__insert_symbol() is used in (2) instead of symbols__insert(),
then the undesired behavior in (3) is avoided.

This change introduces a fix to symbols__find, so that it is able to
find symbols of length zero (where start == end).
The current code has the following problem:
- The current implementation of symbols__find is unable to find any symbols
of length zero.
- The db-export framework explicitly creates zero length symbols at
locations where no symbol currently exists.
The combination of the two above behaviors results in behavior similar
to the example below.
1. addr_location is created for a sample, but symbol is unable to be
resolved.
2. db export creates an "unknown" symbol of length zero at that address
and inserts it into the dso.
3. A new sample comes in at the same address, but symbol__find is unable
to find the zero length symbol, so it is still unresolved.
4. db export sees the symbol is unresolved, and allocated a duplicate
symbol, even though it already did this in step 2.
This behavior continues every time an address without symbol information
is seen, which causes a very large number of these symbols to be
allocated.
The effect of this fix can be observed by looking at the contents of an
exported database before/after the fix (generated with
scripts/python/export-to-postgresql.py)
Ex.
BEFORE THE CHANGE:
example_db=# select count(*) from symbols;
count
--------
900213
(1 row)
example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where symbols.name='unknown';
count
--------
897355
(1 row)
example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where symbols.name!='unknown';
count
-------
2858
(1 row)
AFTER THE CHANGE:
example_db=# select count(*) from symbols;
count
-------
25217
(1 row)
example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where name='unknown';
count
-------
22359

This change allows python scripts to be able to utilize the recent
changes to the db export api allowing the export of call_paths derived
from sampled callchains. These call paths are also now associated with
the samples from which they were derived.
- This feature is enabled by setting "perf_db_export_callchains" to true
- When enabled, samples that have callchain information will have the
callchains exported via call_path_table
- The call_path_id field is added to sample_table to enable association of
samples with the corresponding callchain stored in the call paths
table. A call_path_id of 0 will be exported if there is no
corresponding callchain.
- When "perf_db_export_callchains" and "perf_db_export_calls" are both
set to True, the call path root data structure will be shared. This
prevents duplicating of data and call path ids that would result from
building two separate call path trees in memory.
- The call_return_processor structure definition was relocated to the header
file to make its contents visible to db-export.c. This enables the
sharing of call path trees between the two features, as mentioned
above.
This change is visible to python scripts using the python db export api.
The change is backwards compatible with scripts written against the
previous API, assuming that the scripts model the sample_table function
after the one in export-to-postgresql.py script by allowing for
additional arguments to be added in the future. ie. using *x as the
final argument of the sample_table function.

The exported sample now contains a reference to the call_path_id that
represents its callchain.
While callchains themselves are nice to have, being able to associate
them with samples makes them much more useful, and can allow for such
things as determining how much cumulative time is spent in a particular
function. This information is normally possible to get from the call
return processor. However, when doing normal sampling, call/return
information is not available, thus necessitating the need for
associating samples directly with call paths.

available for subsequent patches in this change set, but by itself, does
not make any changes visible to the user.

This change enables the db export api to export callchains. This is
accomplished by adding callchains obtained from samples to the
call_path_root structure and exporting them via the current call path
export API.
While the current API does support exporting call paths, this is not
supported when sampling. This commit addresses that missing feature by
allowing the export of call paths when callchains are present in
samples.
Summary:
- This feature is activated by initializing the call_path_root member
inside the db_export structure to a non-null value.
- Callchains are resolved with thread__resolve_callchain() and then stored
and exported by adding a call path under call path root.
- Symbol and DSO for each callchain node are exported via db_ids_from_al()
This commit puts in place infrastructure to be used by subsequent commits,
and by itself, does not introduce any user-visible changes.

The existing implementation of thread__resolve_callchain, under certain
circumstances, can assemble callchain entries in the incorrect order.
The callchain entries are resolved incorrectly for a sample when all of
the following conditions are met:
1. callchain_param.order is set to ORDER_CALLER
2. thread__resolve_callchain_sample is able to resolve callchain entries
for the sample.
3. unwind__get_entries is also able to resolve callchain entries for the
sample.
The fix is accomplished by reversing the order in which
thread__resolve_callchain_sample and unwind__get_entries are called when
callchain_param.order is set to ORDER_CALLER.
Unwind specific code from thread__resolve_callchain is also moved into a
new static function to improve readability of the fix.
How to Reproduce the Existing Bug:
Modifying perf script to print call trees in the opposite order or
applying the remaining patches from this series and comparing the
results output from export-to-postgtresql.py are the easiest ways to see
the bug, however it can still be seen in current builds using perf
report.
Here is how i can reproduce the bug using perf report:
# perf record --call-graph=dwarf stress -c 1 -t 5
when i run this command:
# perf report --call-graph=flat,0,0,callee
This callchain, containing kernel (handle_irq_event, etc) and userspace
samples (__libc_start_main, etc) is contained in the output, which looks
correct (callee order):
gen8_irq_handler
handle_irq_event_percpu
handle_irq_event
handle_edge_irq
handle_irq
do_IRQ
ret_from_intr
__random
rand
0x558f2a04dded
0x558f2a04c774
__libc_start_main
0x558f2a04dcd9
Now run this command using caller order:
# perf report --call-graph=flat,0,0,caller
It is expected to see the exact reverse of the above when using caller
order (with "0x558f2a04dcd9" at the top and "gen8_irq_handler" at the
bottom) in the output, but it is nowhere to be found.
instead you see this:
ret_from_intr
do_IRQ
handle_irq
handle_edge_irq
handle_irq_event
handle_irq_event_percpu
gen8_irq_handler
0x558f2a04dcd9
__libc_start_main
0x558f2a04c774
0x558f2a04dded
rand
__random
Notice how internally the kernel symbols are reversed and the user space
symbols are reversed, but the kernel symbols still appear above the user
space symbols.
if this patch is applied and perf script is re-run, you will see the
expected output (with "0x558f2a04dcd9" at the top and "gen8_irq_handler"
at the bottom):
0x558f2a04dcd9
__libc_start_main
0x558f2a04c774
0x558f2a04dded
rand
__random
ret_from_intr
do_IRQ
handle_irq
handle_edge_irq

confusion, rename 'old' to 'start', 'head' to 'end'. 'start' -> 'end'
is the direction the records should be read from.
Change parameter order.
Change 'overwrite' to 'check_messup'. When reading from 'head', no need
to check messup for for backward ring buffer.

ppc64le functions have a Global Entry Point (GEP) and a Local Entry
Point (LEP). While placing a probe, we always prefer the LEP since it
catches function calls through both the GEP and the LEP. In order to do
this, we fixup the function entry points during elf symbol table lookup
to point to the LEPs. This works, but breaks 'perf test kallsyms' since
the symbols loaded from the symbol table (pointing to the LEP) do not
match the symbols in kallsyms.
To fix this, we do not adjust all the symbols during symbol table load.
Instead, we note down st_other in a newly introduced arch-specific
member of perf symbol structure, and later use this to adjust the probe
trace point.

Sometimes we want to sort an existing rbtree by a different key,
introduce a template for that, that needs only to be provided the
rbtree root and the number of entries in it.
To do that a new rbtree will be created with extra space for each entry,
where possibly pre-calculated keys will be stored to be used in the
resort process and also later, when using the newly sorted rbtree.
Please check the following two changesets to see it in use for resorting
stats for threads and its syscalls in 'perf trace --summary'.

PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH (127), now that this can be tuned via a sysctl,
make it read it and use that as the upper limit, falling back to
PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH for kernels where this sysctl isn't present.

Perf can add a probe on kernel module which has not been loaded yet.
The current implementation finds the module name from path. But if the
filename is different from the actual module name then perf fails to
register a probe while loading module because of mismatch in the names.
For example, samples/kobject/kobject-example.ko is loaded as
kobject_example.

$ sudo ./perf probe -m /linux/samples/kobject/kobject-example.ko foo_show

Don't read broken data after 'head' pointer.
Following commits will feed perf_evlist__mmap_read() with some 'head'
pointers not maintained by kernel. If 'head' pointer breaks an event, we
should avoid reading from the broken event. This can happen in backward
ring buffer.
For example:
old head
| |
V V
+---+------+----------+----+-----+--+
|..E|D....D|C........C|B..B|A....|E.|
+---+------+----------+----+-----+--+
'old' pointer points to the beginning of 'A' and trying read from it,
but 'A' has been overwritten. In this case, don't try to read from 'A',
simply return NULL.

finding maps for each module in the system, which is not the case with
the kcore code. Provide a way to ignore kcore files so that the test can
have its expectations met.
Improving the test to cover kcore files as well needs to be done.

The current code is memsetting the 'struct stat' variable 'st' with the size of
'stat' (which turns out to be 1 byte) rather than the size of variable 'sz'.
Committer notes:
sizeof(function) isn't valid, the result depends on the compiler used, with
gcc, enabling pedantic warnings we get:
$ cat sizeof_function.c
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
printf("sizeof(stat)=%zd, stat=%p\n", sizeof(stat), stat);
return 0;
}
$ readelf -sW sizeof_function | grep -w stat
49: 0000000000400630 16 FUNC WEAK HIDDEN 13 stat
$ cc -pedantic sizeof_function.c -o sizeof_function

printf("sizeof(stat)=%zd, stat=%p\n", sizeof(stat), stat);
^
$ ./sizeof_function
sizeof(stat)=1, stat=0x400630
$
Standard C, section 6.5.3.4:
"The sizeof operator shall not be applied to an expression that has function
type or an incomplete type, to the parenthesized name of such a type,
or to an expression that designates a bit-field member."

This would require linking against callchain.c to access to the global
callchain_cursor variables.
Since lots of functions already receive as a parameter a
callchain_cursor struct pointer, make that be the case for some more
function so that we can start phasing out usage of yet another global
variable.

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-20160408' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
User visible changes:
- Beautify more syscall arguments in 'perf trace', using the type column in
tracepoint /format fields to attach, for instance, a pid_t resolver to the
thread COMM, also attach a mode_t beautifier in the same fashion
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Build the syscall table id <-> name resolver using the same .tbl file
used in the kernel to generate headers, to avoid the delay in getting
new syscalls supported in the audit-libs external dependency, done so
far only for x86_64 (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Improve the documentation of event specifications (Andi Kleen)
- Process update events in 'perf script', fixing up this use case:
# perf stat -a -I 1000 -e cycles record | perf script -s script.py
- Shared object symbol adjustment fixes, fixing symbol resolution in
Android (Wang Nan)
Infrastructure changes:
- Add dedicated unwind addr_space member into thread struct, to allow
tools to use thread->priv, noticed while working on having callchains
in 'perf trace' (Jiri Olsa)
Build fixes:
- Fix the build in Ubuntu 12.04 (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Vinson Lee)

The fprintf_sym() and fprintf_callchain() methods now allow users to
change the existing behaviour of showing "[unknown]" as the name of
unresolved symbols to instead show "[0x123456]", i.e. its address.
The current patch doesn't change tools to use this facility, the results
from 'perf trace' and 'perf script' cotinue like:
70.109 ( 0.001 ms): qemu-system-x8/10153 poll(ufds: 0x7f2d93ffe870, nfds: 1) = 0 Timeout
[unknown] (/usr/lib64/libc-2.22.so)
[unknown] (/usr/lib64/libspice-server.so.1.10.0)
[unknown] (/usr/lib64/libspice-server.so.1.10.0)
[unknown] (/usr/lib64/libspice-server.so.1.10.0)
start_thread+0xca (/usr/lib64/libpthread-2.22.so)
__clone+0x6d (/usr/lib64/libc-2.22.so)
The next patch will make 'perf trace' use the new formatting.

The rename is for consistency with the parameter name.
Make it public for fine grained control of which evsels should have
callchains enabled, like, for instance, will be done in the next
changesets in 'perf trace', to enable callchains just on the
"raw_syscalls:sys_exit" tracepoint.

Instead receive a callchain_param pointer to configure callchain
aspects, not doing so if NULL is passed.
This will allow fine grained control over which evsels in an evlist
gets callchains enabled.

In 'perf trace' we're just interested in printing callchains, and we
don't want to use the symbol_conf.use_callchain, so move the callchain
part to a new method.

As it receives a FILE, and its more than just the IP, which can even be
requested not to be printed.
For consistency with other similar methods in tools/perf/, name it as
perf_evsel__fprintf_sym() and make it return the number of bytes
printed, just like 'fprintf(3)'

This patch allows cloning bpf-output event configuration among multiple
bpf scripts. If there exist a map named '__bpf_output__' and not
configured using 'map:__bpf_output__.event=', this patch clones the
configuration of another '__bpf_stdout__' map. For example, following
command:
# perf trace --ev bpf-output/no-inherit,name=evt/ \
--ev ./test_bpf_trace.c/map:__bpf_stdout__.event=evt/ \
--ev ./test_bpf_trace2.c usleep 100000
equals to:
# perf trace --ev bpf-output/no-inherit,name=evt/ \
--ev ./test_bpf_trace.c/map:__bpf_stdout__.event=evt/ \
--ev ./test_bpf_trace2.c/map:__bpf_stdout__.event=evt/ \
usleep 100000

The readdir() function is thread safe as long as just one thread uses a
DIR, which is the case when parsing tracepoint event definitions, to
avoid breaking the build with glibc-2.23.90 (upcoming 2.24), use it
instead of readdir_r().
See: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/readdir.3.html
"However, in modern implementations (including the glibc implementation),
concurrent calls to readdir() that specify different directory streams
are thread-safe. In cases where multiple threads must read from the
same directory stream, using readdir() with external synchronization is
still preferable to the use of the deprecated readdir_r(3) function."
Noticed while building on a Fedora Rawhide docker container.
