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

#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.

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):
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:

Error:
You may not have permission to collect system-wide stats.

the global --per-thread mode had better ignore such errors and continue

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:

make: Leaving directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'

PYTHON=python3 part, which will make it use python2 if its devel files are
available, like in this test:

Before this change, the '--graph-funcs', '--nograph-funcs' and

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.

- Fix wrong jump arrow in systems with branch records with cycles,
i.e. Intel's >= Skylake (Jin Yao)
- Fix 'perf record --per-thread' problem introduced when
implementing 'perf stat --per-thread (Jin Yao)
- Use arch__compare_symbol_names() to fix 'perf test vmlinux',
that was using strcmp(symbol names) while the dso routines
doing symbol lookups used the arch overridable one, making
this test fail in architectures that overrided that function
with something other than strcmp() (Jiri Olsa)
- Fix dwarf unwind for stripped binaries in 'perf test' (Jiri Olsa)
- Use ordered_events for 'perf report --tasks', otherwise we may get
artifacts when PERF_RECORD_FORK gets processed before PERF_RECORD_COMM
(when they got recorded in different CPUs) (Jiri Olsa)
- Add support to display group output for non group events, i.e.
now when one uses 'perf report --group' on a perf.data file
recorded without explicitly grouping events with {} (e.g.
"perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}'" get the same output
that would produce, i.e. see all those non-grouped events in
multiple columns, at the same time (Jiri Olsa)
- Skip non-address kallsyms entries, e.g. '(null)' for !root (Jiri Olsa)
- Kernel maps fixes wrt perf.data(report) versus live system (top)
(Jiri Olsa)
- Fix memory corruption when using 'perf record -j call -g -a <application>'
followed by 'perf report --branch-history' (Jiri Olsa)
- ARM CoreSight fixes (Mathieu Poirier)
- Add inject capability for CoreSight Traces (Robert Waker)
- Update documentation for use of 'perf' + ARM CoreSight (Robert Walker)
- Man pages fixes (Sangwon Hong, Jaecheol Shin)
- Fix some 'perf test' cases on s/390 and x86_64 (some backtraces
changed with a glibc update) (Thomas Richter)
- Add detailed CPUID info in the 'perf.data' headers for s/390 to
then use it in 'perf annotate' (Thomas Richter)
- Add '--interval-count N' to 'perf stat', to use with -I, i.e.
'perf stat -I 1000 --interval-count 2' will show stats every
1000ms, two times (yuzhoujian)
- Add 'perf stat --timeout Nms', that will run for that many
milliseconds and then stop, printing the counters (yuzhoujian)
- Fix description for 'perf report --mem-modex (Andi Kleen)

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.

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.

To invoke the new functionality, use the perf inject tool with

last branch records in a new inj.data file:
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.

the machines kernel maps and setting up the kmap group. The report code
path then sets the address based on the data from kernel MMAP event in
the machine__set_kernel_mmap() function.
The kallsyms search address logic is used for test code, that calls
machine__create_kernel_maps() to get current maps and calls
machine__get_running_kernel_start() to get kernel starting address.
Use machine__set_kernel_mmap() to set the kernel maps start address and
moving map_groups__fixup_end to be call when all maps are in place.
Also make __machine__create_kernel_maps static, because there's no
external user.

We can print the count deltas after N milliseconds with this new
introduced option. This option is not supported with "-I" option.
In addition, according to Kangliang's patch(19afd10410957), the
monitoring overhead for system-wide core event could be very high if the
interval-print parameter was below 100ms, and the limitation value is
10ms.
So the same warning will be displayed when the time is set between 10ms
to 100ms, and the minimal time is limited to 10ms. Users can make a
decision according to their spcific cases.
Committer notes:
This actually stops the workload after the specified time, then prints
the counts.
So I renamed the option to --timeout and updated the documentation to
state that it will not just print the counts after the specified time,
but will really stop the 'perf stat' session and print the counts.
The rename from 'time' to 'timeout' also fixes the build in systems
where 'time' is used by glibc and can't be used as a name of a variable,
such as centos:5 and centos:6.
Changes since v3:
- none.
Changes since v2:
- modify the time check in __run_perf_stat func to keep some consistency
with the workload case.
- add the warning when the time is set between 10ms to 100ms.
- add the pr_err when the time is set below 10ms.

Ditto for sh/install later on.
Look for FORK and COMM meta events, for those tids:
So they are on different CPUs, thus ring buffers, and when we don't use
the ordered_events class, we end up mixing that up, use it to take
advantage of the PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND meta events to go on
ordering the events using the PERF_SAMPLE_TIME present in the

kprobes: Propagate error from arm_kprobe_ftrace()
Improve error handling when arming ftrace-based kprobes. Specifically, if
we fail to arm a ftrace-based kprobe, register_kprobe()/enable_kprobe()
should report an error instead of success. Previously, this has lead to
confusing situations where register_kprobe() would return 0 indicating
success, but the kprobe would not be functional if ftrace registration
during the kprobe arming process had failed. We should therefore take any
errors returned by ftrace into account and propagate this error so that we
do not register/enable kprobes that cannot be armed. This can happen if,
for example, register_ftrace_function() finds an IPMODIFY conflict (since
kprobe_ftrace_ops has this flag set) and returns an error. Such a conflict
is possible since livepatches also set the IPMODIFY flag for their ftrace_ops.
arm_all_kprobes() keeps its current behavior and attempts to arm all
kprobes. It returns the last encountered error and gives a warning if
not all probes could be armed.

perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite mode
perf_top__mmap_read() has a severe performance issue in the Knights
Landing/Mill platform, when monitoring heavy load systems. It costs
several minutes to finish, which is unacceptable.
Currently, 'perf top' uses the non overwrite mode. For non overwrite
mode, it tries to read everything in the ringbuffer and doesn't pause
it. Once there are lots of samples delivered persistently, the
processing time could be very long. Also, the latest samples could be
lost when the ringbuffer is full.
For overwrite mode, it takes a snapshot for the system by pausing the
ringbuffer, which could significantly reduce the processing time. Also,
the overwrite mode always keep the latest samples. Considering the real
time requirement for 'perf top', the overwrite mode is more suitable for
it.
Actually, 'perf top' was overwrite mode. It is changed to non overwrite
mode since commit 93fc64f14472 ("perf top: Switch to non overwrite
mode"). It's better to change it back to overwrite mode by default.
For the kernel which doesn't support overwrite mode, it will fall back
to non overwrite mode.
There would be some records lost in overwrite mode because of pausing
the ringbuffer. It has little impact for the accuracy of the snapshot
and can be tolerated.
For overwrite mode, unconditionally wait 100 ms before each snapshot. It
also reduces the overhead caused by pausing ringbuffer, especially on
light load system.

x86/entry/64: Fix CR3 restore in paranoid_exit()
Josh Poimboeuf noticed the following bug:
"The paranoid exit code only restores the saved CR3 when it switches back
to the user GS. However, even in the kernel GS case, it's possible that
it needs to restore a user CR3, if for example, the paranoid exception
occurred in the syscall exit path between SWITCH_TO_USER_CR3_STACK and
SWAPGS."
Josh also confirmed via targeted testing that it's possible to hit this bug.
Fix the bug by also restoring CR3 in the paranoid_exit_no_swapgs branch.
The reason we haven't seen this bug reported by users yet is probably because
"paranoid" entry points are limited to the following cases:
Amongst those entry points only machine_check is one that will interrupt an
IRQS-off critical section asynchronously - and machine check events are rare.
The other main asynchronous entries are NMI entries, which can be very high-freq
with perf profiling, but they are special: they don't use the 'idtentry' macro but
are open coded and restore user CR3 unconditionally so don't have this bug.
