If you look at the frame #2, the code is:
488 if (he->srcline) {
489 he->srcline = strdup(he->srcline);
490 if (he->srcline == NULL)
491 goto err_rawdata;
492 }
If he->srcline is not NULL (it is not NULL if it is uninitialized rubbish),
it gets strdupped and strdupping a rubbish random string causes the problem.
Also, if you look at the commit 1fb7d06a50, it adds the srcline property
into the struct, but not initializing it everywhere needed.
Committer notes:
Now I see, when using --ignore-callees=do_idle we end up here at line
2189 in add_callchain_ip():
2181 if (al.sym != NULL) {
2182 if (perf_hpp_list.parent && !*parent &&
2183 symbol__match_regex(al.sym, &parent_regex))
2184 *parent = al.sym;
2185 else if (have_ignore_callees && root_al &&
2186 symbol__match_regex(al.sym, &ignore_callees_regex)) {
2187 /* Treat this symbol as the root,
2188 forgetting its callees. */
2189 *root_al = al;
2190 callchain_cursor_reset(cursor);
2191 }
2192 }
And the al that doesn't have the ->srcline field initialized will be
copied to the root_al, so then, back to:
1211 int hist_entry_iter__add(struct hist_entry_iter *iter, struct addr_location *al,
1212 int max_stack_depth, void *arg)
1213 {
1214 int err, err2;
1215 struct map *alm = NULL;
1216
1217 if (al)
1218 alm = map__get(al->map);
1219
1220 err = sample__resolve_callchain(iter->sample, &callchain_cursor, &iter->parent,
1221 iter->evsel, al, max_stack_depth);
1222 if (err) {
1223 map__put(alm);
1224 return err;
1225 }
1226
1227 err = iter->ops->prepare_entry(iter, al);
1228 if (err)
1229 goto out;
1230
1231 err = iter->ops->add_single_entry(iter, al);
1232 if (err)
1233 goto out;
1234
That al at line 1221 is what hist_entry_iter__add() (called from
sample__resolve_callchain()) saw as 'root_al', and then:
iter->ops->add_single_entry(iter, al);
will go on with al->srcline with a bogus value, I'll add the above
sequence to the cset and apply, thanks!

Perf code re-implements libbpf's btf__load_from_kernel_by_id() API as
a weak function, presumably to dynamically link against old version of
libbpf shared library. Unfortunately this causes compilation warning
when perf is compiled against libbpf v0.6+.
For now, just ignore deprecation warning, but there might be a better
solution, depending on perf's needs.

Currently perf saves a build-id with size but old versions assumes the
size of 20. In case the build-id is less than 20 (like for MD5), it'd
fill the rest with 0s.
I saw a problem when old version of perf record saved a binary in the
build-id cache and new version of perf reads the data. The symbols
should be read from the build-id cache (as the path no longer has the
same binary) but it failed due to mismatch in the build-id.
symsrc__init: build id mismatch for /home/namhyung/.debug/.build-id/53/e4c2f42a4c61a2d632d92a72afa08f00000000/elf.
The build-id event in the data has 20 byte build-ids, but it saw a
different size (16) when it reads the build-id of the elf file in the
build-id cache.

Perf records IBS (Instruction Based Sampling) extra sample data when
'perf record --raw-samples' is used with an IBS-compatible event, on a
machine that supports IBS. IBS support is indicated in
CPUID_Fn80000001_ECX bit #10.
Up until now, users have been able to see the extra sample data solely
in raw hex format using 'perf report --dump-raw-trace'. From there,
users could decode the data either manually, or by using an external
script.
Enable the built-in 'perf report --dump-raw-trace' to do the decoding of
the extra sample data bits, so manual or external script decoding isn't
necessary.
Example usage:
$ sudo perf record -c 10000001 -a --raw-samples -e ibs_fetch/rand_en=1/,ibs_op/cnt_ctl=1/ -C 0,1 taskset -c 0,1 7za b -mmt2 | perf report --dump-raw-trace

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
As that %2d won't limit the number of chars to 2, just state that 2 is
the minimal width:
$ cat printf.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
char bf[64];
int len = snprintf(bf, sizeof(bf), "%2d", atoi(argv[1]));
printf("strlen(%s): %u\n", bf, len);
return 0;
}
$ ./printf 1
strlen( 1): 2
$ ./printf 12
strlen(12): 2
$ ./printf 123
strlen(123): 3
$ ./printf 1234
strlen(1234): 4
$ ./printf 12345
strlen(12345): 5
$ ./printf 123456
strlen(123456): 6
$
And since we probably don't want that output to be truncated, just
assume the worst case, as the compiler did, and add a few more chars to
that buffer.
Also use sizeof(var) instead of sizeof(dup-of-wanted-format-string) to
avoid bugs when changing one but not the other.
I also had to change this:
-#include <asm/amd-ibs.h>
+#include "../../arch/x86/include/asm/amd-ibs.h"
To make it build on other architectures, just like intel-pt does.

Instead of using the file offset in the debug file.
This fixes a regression from 00a3423492 ("perf symbols: Make
dso__load_bfd_symbols() load PE files from debug cache only"), causing
incorrect symbol resolution when debug file have been stripped from
non-debug sections (in which case its .text section is empty and doesn't
have any file position).
The debug files could also be created with a different file alignment,
and have different file positions from the mmap-ed binary, or have the
section reordered.
This instead looks for the file image base, using the corresponding bfd
*ABS* symbols. As PE symbols only have 4 bytes, it also needs to keep
.text section vma high bits.

A perf uncore PMU may have two PMU names, a real name and an alias. The
alias is exported at /sys/bus/event_source/devices/uncore_*/alias.
The perf tool should support the alias as well.
Add alias_name in the struct perf_pmu to store the alias. For the PMU
which doesn't have an alias. It's NULL.
Introduce two X86 specific functions to retrieve the real name and the
alias separately.
Only go through the sysfs to retrieve the mapping between the real name
and the alias once. The result is cached in a list, uncore_pmu_list.
Nothing changed for the other ARCHs.
With the patch, the perf tool can monitor the PMU with either the real
name or the alias.
Use the real name,
$ perf stat -e uncore_cha_2/event=1/ -x,
4044879584,,uncore_cha_2/event=1/,2528059205,100.00,,
Use the alias,
$ perf stat -e uncore_type_0_2/event=1/ -x,
3659675336,,uncore_type_0_2/event=1/,2287306455,100.00,,
Committer notes:
Rename 'struct perf_pmu_alias_name' to 'pmu_alias', the 'perf_' prefix
should be used for libperf, things inside just tools/perf/ are being
moved away from that prefix.
Also 'pmu_alias' is shorter and reflects the abstraction.
Also don't use 'pmu' as the name for variables for that type, we should
use that for the 'struct perf_pmu' variables, avoiding confusion. Use
'pmu_alias' for 'struct pmu_alias' variables.

perf_events may sometimes throttle an event due to creating too many
samples during a given timer tick.
As of now, the perf tool will not report on throttling, which means this
is a silent error.
Implement a callback for the throttle and unthrottle events within the
Python scripting engine, which can allow scripts to detect and report
when events may have been lost due to throttling.
The simplest script to report throttle events is:
def throttle(*args):
print("throttle" + repr(args))
def unthrottle(*args):
print("unthrottle" + repr(args))

enough information to diagnose issues. This LLVM test is the only test
that uses "-v" to signify to not skip the test if the preconditions
aren't met (LLVM isn't installed). This means that running the test in
verbose mode without LLVM installed causes a test failure.
For consistency with the other tests, remove this verbose/skip check. An
alternate solution would be to make _all_ tests not skip when run in
verbose mode, but I don't think that would be intuitive.
Also change the search_program() call to search_program_and_warn().
Previously the hint about installing LLVM was only printed by the actual
test because this check was skipped in verbose mode. To maintain the old
behaviour, the precondition check must also print the full warning.
Previous output:

New output (non verbose mode is identical, verbose changes from fail to
skip):

When perf runs in compat mode (kernel in 64-bit mode and the perf is in
32-bit mode), the 64-bit value atomicity in the user space cannot be
assured, E.g. on some architectures, the 64-bit value accessing is split
into two instructions, one is for the low 32-bit word accessing and
another is for the high 32-bit word.
This patch introduces weak functions compat_auxtrace_mmap__read_head()
and compat_auxtrace_mmap__write_tail(), as their naming indicates, when
perf tool works in compat mode, it uses these two functions to access
the AUX head and tail. These two functions can allow the perf tool to
work properly in certain conditions, e.g. when perf tool works in
snapshot mode with only using AUX head pointer, or perf tool uses the
AUX buffer and the incremented tail is not bigger than 4GB.
When perf tool cannot handle the case when the AUX tail is bigger than
4GB, the function compat_auxtrace_mmap__write_tail() returns -1 and
tells the caller to bail out for the error.
These two functions are declared as weak attribute, this allows to
implement arch specific functions if any arch can support the 64-bit
value atomicity in compat mode.

Acaict, perf_home_perfconfig() is supposed to cache the result of
home_perfconfig, which returns the default location of perfconfig for
the user, given the HOME environment variable.
However, the current implementation calls home_perfconfig every time
perf_home_perfconfig() is called (so no caching is actually performed),
replacing the previous pointer, thus also causing a memory leak.
This patch adds a check of whether either config or failed is set and,
in that case, directly returns config without calling home_perfconfig at
each invocation.
Fixes: f5f03e19ce ("perf config: Add perf_home_perfconfig function")
