When a tool can't open counters due to the kernel.perf_event_paranoit
sysctl setting, we inform how to tweak it to allow the operation to
succeed, in addition to that, suggest setting /etc/sysctl.conf to
make the setting permanent.

In commit daeecbc0c4 ("perf tools: Add event_update event scale type"), the
handling of PERF_EVENT_UPDATE__SCALE cast struct event_update_event->data to a
pointer to event_update_event_scale, uses some field from this casted struct
and then ends up falling through to the handling of another event type,
PERF_EVENT_UPDATE__CPUS were it casts that ev->data to yet another type, oops,
fix it by inserting the missing break.
Noticed when building perf using gcc 7 on Fedora Rawhide:
util/header.c: In function 'perf_event__process_event_update':
util/header.c:3207:16: error: this statement may fall through [-Werror=implicit-fallthrough=]
evsel->scale = ev_scale->scale;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
util/header.c:3208:2: note: here
case PERF_EVENT_UPDATE__CPUS:
^~~~
This wasn't noticed because probably PERF_EVENT_UPDATE__CPUS comes after
PERF_EVENT_UPDATE__SCALE, so we would just create a bogus evsel->own_cpus when
processing a PERF_EVENT_UPDATE__SCALE to then leak it and create a new cpu map
with the correct data.

After commit 5baecbcd9c ("perf symbols: we can now read separate
debug-info files based on a build ID") and when --symfs option is used
perf failed to pick up symbols for file with the same name between host
and sysroot specified by --symfs option. One can see message like this:
bin/bash with build id 26f0062cb6950d4d1ab0fd9c43eae8b10ca42062 not found, continuing without symbols
It happens because code added by 5baecbcd9c opens files directly by
dso->long_name without symbol_conf.symfs consideration, which as result
picks one from the host. It reads its build ID and later even code finds
another proper file in directory pointed by --symfs perf ignores it
because build id mismatches.
Fix is to use __symbol__join_symfs to adjust file name according to
--symfs setting. If no --symfs passed the operation would noop and picks
the same host file as before.
Also note in latter tree after 5baecbcd9c commit additional check for
'!dso->has_build_id' was added, so to observe error condition 'perf
record' should run with --no-buildid, so perf.data itself would not have
build id for target binary in buildid perf section and 'perf report'
will pass '!dso->has_build_id' condition. Or target binary should not
have build id, but the same binary on host has build id, again
'!dso->has_build_id' will pass in this case and incorrect build id could
be read if --symfs is used.

For debugging and testing it is useful to see the converted alias
string. Add support to perf stat/record and perf list to print the alias
conversion. The text string is saved in the alias structure. For perf
stat/record it is folded into the normal -v. For perf list -v was taken,
so we use --debug.

The code for handling pmu aliases without specifying the PMU hardcoded
only supported the cpu PMU.
This patch extends it to work for all PMUs. We always duplicate the
event for all PMUs that have an matching alias. This allows to
automatically expand an alias for all instances of a PMU (so for example
you can monitor all cache boxes with a single event)

Add support for registering json aliases per PMU. Any alias with an unit
matching the prefix is registered to the PMU. Uncore has multiple
instances of most units, so all these aliases get registered for each
individual PMU (this is important later to run the event on every
instance of the PMU).
To avoid printing the events multiple times in perf list filter out
duplicated events during printing.

Handle the "Unit" field, which is needed to find the right PMU for an
event. We call it "pmu" and convert it to the perf pmu name with an
uncore prefix.
Handle the "ExtSel" field, which just extends the event mask with an
additional bit.
Handle the "Filter" field which adds parameters to the main event
to configure filtering.
Handle the "Unit" field which declares the unit the values should be
scaled too (similar to what the kernel exports)
Set up the "perpkg" field for uncore events so that perf knows they are
per package (similar to what the kernel exports)
Then output the fields into the pmu-events data structures which are
compiled into perf.
Filter out zero fields, except for the event itself.
v2: Fix compilation. Add uncore_ prefix at pre-processing time.
Move eventcode change to separate patch.
v3: Remove extra __maybe_unused
v4: dont duplicate aliases for cpu pmu events

This resulted in a behavior change since the field was added to the tail
instead of the head. So the -o option is mostly ignored due to its
order in the list.
This patch fixes it by adding perf_hpp__prepend_sort_field().

While propagating the errors from perf_config(), which were being

~/.perfconfig file, because the perf_config_set__init() was considering
an error not to have a .perfconfig file, duh, fix it by checking the

It should also not return an error when it says it is ignoring the file,
and also a empty file should not return an error either.

Current trace info data lacks the saved cmdline mapping which is needed
for pevent to find out the comm of a task. Add this and bump up the
version number so that perf can determine its presence when reading.
This is mostly corresponding to trace.dat file version 6, but still
lacks 4 byte of number of cpus, and 10 bytes of type string - and I
think we don't need those anyway.

Using perf with call graph method dwarf fails to provide backtrace
support for stripped binary even though .gnu_debuglink points to *.dbg
flavor with properly populated debug symbols.
Problem is reproduced on ARM (v7, v8), kernels 3.14.y, 4.4.y and
4.10.rc3. Perf is configured with libunwind, and unwind dwarf support
[1]. Test code (stress_bt.c) can be found on [2].
Running (explicitly disable other unwinding methods):
$ gcc -g -o stress_bt -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-unwind-tables \
-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables stress_bt.c
$ perf record -N --call-graph dwarf ./stress_bt
$ perf report
results in properly generated call graph. Stripping the binary and running
it results with missing call graph. Expected result is to have call graph:
$ gcc -g -o stress_bt -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-unwind-tables \
-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables stress_bt.c
$ objcopy --only-keep-debug stress_bt stress_bt.dbg
$ objcopy --strip-debug stress_bt
$ objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink=stress_bt.dbg stress_bt
$ perf record -N --call-graph dwarf ./stress_bt
$ perf report
Problem is that perf doesn't try to read symbols pointed by gnu
debuglink. Patch adds checking, and reading of the symbols from
debuglink and symsrc. Order of the check is to first check within dso,
then check whether symsrc is defined and try to read from it. Finally,
debuglink is checked. Default locations of debug files are discussed in
[3] and [4]. Comments on RFC are on [5].

The use_browser and perf_version_string variables are both declared in
perf.c but they are also referenced by other functions of libperf.a.
Therefore a user linking an own main() with libperf.a must declare those
two variables in their files even if the files never use the browser or
the version information.
This patch fixes this issue by moving use_browser and
perf_version_string out of perf.c to some other files.

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.

Fix to show correct locations for events on modules by relocating given
address instead of retrying after failure.
This happens when the module text size is big enough, bigger than
sh_addr, because the original code retries with given address + sh_addr
if it failed to find CU DIE at the given address.
Any address smaller than sh_addr always fails and it retries with the
correct address, but addresses bigger than sh_addr will get a CU DIE
which is on the given address (not adjusted by sh_addr).
In my environment(x86-64), the sh_addr of ".text" section is 0x10030.
Since i915 is a huge kernel module, we can see this issue as below.
$ grep "[Tt] .*\[i915\]" /proc/kallsyms | sort | head -n1
ffffffffc0270000 t i915_switcheroo_can_switch [i915]
ffffffffc0270000 + 0x10030 = ffffffffc0280030, so we'll check
symbols cross this boundary.
$ grep "[Tt] .*\[i915\]" /proc/kallsyms | grep -B1 ^ffffffffc028\
| head -n 2
ffffffffc027ff80 t haswell_init_clock_gating [i915]
ffffffffc0280110 t valleyview_init_clock_gating [i915]
So setup probes on both function and see what happen.
$ sudo ./perf probe -m i915 -a haswell_init_clock_gating \
-a valleyview_init_clock_gating
Added new events:
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating in i915)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating -aR sleep 1
$ sudo ./perf probe -l
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on i915_vga_set_decode:4@gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.c in i915)
As you can see, haswell_init_clock_gating is correctly shown,
but valleyview_init_clock_gating is not.
With this patch, both events are shown correctly.
$ sudo ./perf probe -l
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915)
Committer notes:
In my case:
# perf probe -m i915 -a haswell_init_clock_gating -a valleyview_init_clock_gating
Added new events:
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating in i915)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating -aR sleep 1
# perf probe -l
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on i915_getparam+432@gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.c in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on __i915_printk+240@gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.c in i915)
#
# readelf -SW /lib/modules/4.9.0+/build/vmlinux | egrep -w '.text|Name'
[Nr] Name Type Address Off Size ES Flg Lk Inf Al
[ 1] .text PROGBITS ffffffff81000000 200000 822fd3 00 AX 0 0 4096
#
So both are b0rked, now with the fix:
# perf probe -m i915 -a haswell_init_clock_gating -a valleyview_init_clock_gating
Added new events:
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating in i915)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating -aR sleep 1
# perf probe -l
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915)
#
Both looks correct.

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

Fixes a perf diff regression issue which was introduced by commit
5baecbcd9c ("perf symbols: we can now read separate debug-info files
based on a build ID")
The binary name could be same when perf diff different binaries. Build
id is used to distinguish between them.
However, the previous patch assumes the same binary name has same build
id. So it overwrites the build id according to the binary name,
regardless of whether the build id is set or not.
Check the has_build_id in dso__load. If the build id is already set, use
it.
Before the fix:
$ perf diff 1.perf.data 2.perf.data
# Event 'cycles'

# Baseline Delta Shared Object Symbol

After the fix:
$ perf diff 1.perf.data 2.perf.data

'perf report --tui' exits with error when it finds a sample of zero
length symbol (i.e. addr == sym->start == sym->end). Actually these are
valid samples. Don't exit TUI and show report with such symbols.
