This patch collects symbols section. This section is useful when linking
BPF maps.
What 'bpf_map_xxx()' functions actually require are map's file
descriptors (and the internal verifier converts fds into pointers to
'struct bpf_map'), which we don't know when compiling. Therefore, we
should make compiler generate a 'ldr_64 r1, <imm>' instruction, and
fill the 'imm' field with the actual file descriptor when loading in
libbpf.
BPF programs should be written in this way:
struct bpf_map_def SEC("maps") my_map = {
.type = BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH,
.key_size = sizeof(unsigned long),
.value_size = sizeof(unsigned long),
.max_entries = 1000000,
};
SEC("my_func=sys_write")
int my_func(void *ctx)
{
...
bpf_map_update_elem(&my_map, &key, &value, BPF_ANY);
...
}
Compiler should convert '&my_map' into a 'ldr_64, r1, <imm>'
instruction, where imm should be the address of 'my_map'. According to
the address, libbpf knows which map it actually referenced, and then
fills the imm field with the 'fd' of that map created by it.
However, since we never really 'link' the object file, the imm field is
only a record in relocation section. Therefore libbpf should do the
relocation:
1. In relocation section (type == SHT_REL), positions of each such
'ldr_64' instruction are recorded with a reference of an entry in
symbol table (SHT_SYMTAB);
2. From records in symbol table we can find the indics of map
variables.
Libbpf first record SHT_SYMTAB and positions of each instruction which
required bu such operation. Then create file descriptor. Finally, after
map creation complete, replace the imm field.
This is the first patch of BPF map related stuff. It records SHT_SYMTAB
into object's efile field for further use.

Expand bpf_obj_elf_collect() to collect license and kernel version
information in eBPF object file. eBPF object file should have a section
named 'license', which contains a string. It should also have a section
named 'version', contains a u32 LINUX_VERSION_CODE.
bpf_obj_validate() is introduced to validate object file after loaded.
Currently it only check existence of 'version' section.

Check endianness according to EHDR. Code is taken from

Libbpf doesn't magically convert missmatched endianness. Even if we swap
eBPF instructions to correct byte order, we are unable to deal with
endianness in code logical generated by LLVM.
Therefore, libbpf should simply reject missmatched ELF object, and let

To support dynamic compiling, this patch allows caller to pass a
in-memory buffer to libbpf by bpf_object__open_buffer(). libbpf calls
elf_memory() to open it as ELF object file.
Because __bpf_object__open() collects all required data and won't need
that buffer anymore, libbpf uses that buffer directly instead of clone a
new buffer. Caller of libbpf can free that buffer or use it do other
things after bpf_object__open_buffer() return.

This patch defines basic interface of libbpf. 'struct bpf_object' will
be the handler of each object file. Its internal structure is hide to
user. eBPF object files are compiled by LLVM as ELF format. In this
patch, libelf is used to open those files, read EHDR and do basic
validation according to e_type and e_machine.
All elf related staffs are grouped together and reside in efile field of
'struct bpf_object'. bpf_object__elf_finish() is introduced to clear it.
After all eBPF programs in an object file are loaded, related ELF
information is useless. Close the object file and free those memory.
The zfree() and zclose() functions are introduced to ensure setting NULL
pointers and negative file descriptors after resources are released.

This is the first patch of libbpf. The goal of libbpf is to create a
standard way for accessing eBPF object files. This patch creates
'Makefile' and 'Build' for it, allows 'make' to build libbpf.a and
libbpf.so, 'make install' to put them into proper directories.
Most part of Makefile is borrowed from traceevent.
Before building, it checks the existence of libelf in Makefile, and deny
to build if not found. Instead of throwing an error if libelf not found,
the error raises in a phony target "elfdep". This design is to ensure
'make clean' still workable even if libelf is not found.
Because libbpf requires 'kern_version' field set for 'union bpf_attr'
(bpfdep" is used for that dependency), Kernel BPF API is also checked
by intruducing a new feature check 'bpf' into tools/build/feature,
which checks the existence and version of linux/bpf.h. When building
libbpf, it searches that file from include/uapi/linux in kernel source
tree (controlled by FEATURE_CHECK_CFLAGS-bpf). Since it searches kernel
source tree it reside, installing of newest kernel headers is not
required, except we are trying to port these files to an old kernel.
To avoid checking that file when perf building, the newly introduced
'bpf' feature check doesn't added into FEATURE_TESTS and
FEATURE_DISPLAY by default in tools/build/Makefile.feature, but added
into libbpf's specific.

Currently the value of a PMU config term is silently truncated if it is
too big. This is an impediment to validating the value for other
criteria later on i.e. the user provides an invalid value that gets
truncated to a valid one.
The maximum value validation is only done for the parser where the error
is passed back to the user. In other cases the silent truncation
continues so as not to affect tools that perhaps rely on it.

- Document the options
- Set up the IPC/cycles accounting state in the top session

Compute the IPC and the basic block cycles for the annotate display.
IPC is computed by counting the instructions, and then dividing the
accounted cycles by that count.
The actual IPC computation can only be done at annotate time, because we
need to parse the objdump output first to know the number of
instructions in the basic block.
The cycles/IPC are also put into the perf function annotation so that
the display code can show them.
Again basic block overlaps are not handled, with the longest winning,
but there are some heuristics to hide the IPC when the longest is not
the most common.

This adds the basic infrastructure to keep track of cycle counts per
basic block for annotate. We allocate an array similar to the normal
accounting, and then account branch cycles there.
We handle two cases:
cycles per basic block with start and cycles per branch (these are later
used for either IPC or just cycles per BB)
In the start case we cannot handle overlaps, so always the longest basic
block wins.
For the cycles per branch case everything is accurately accounted.

Without this patch, it is cumbersome to read the trace output but
ignoring the normal, potentially verbose, output of the debuggee. One
common example is doing something like the following:
perf trace -s find /tmp > /dev/null
Without this patch, the trace summary will be lost. Now, it will still
be printed at the end. This behavior is also applied by strace.

This patchkit adds the ability to turn off time stamps per event.
One usaful case for partial time is to work with per-event callgraph to
enable "PEBS threshold > 1" (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/10/196), which
can significantly reduce the sampling overhead.
The event samples with time stamps off will not be ordered.

To work like strace and dereference syscall pointer args we need to
insert probes (or tracepoints) right after we copy those bytes from
userspace.
Since we're formatting the syscall args at raw_syscalls:sys_enter time,
we need to have a formatter that just stores the position where, later,
when we get the probe:vfs_getname, we can insert the pointer contents.
Now, if a probe:vfs_getname with this format is in place:
# perf probe -l
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72@/home/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname)
That was, in this case, put in place with:
# perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=filename:string'
Added new event:
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=filename:string)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1
#
Then 'perf trace' will notice that and do the pointer -> contents
expansion:
# trace -e open touch /tmp/bla
0.165 (0.010 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.195 (0.011 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /lib64/libc.so.6, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.512 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.582 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /tmp/bla, flags: CREAT|NOCTTY|NONBLOCK|WRONLY, mode: 438) = 3
#
Roughly equivalent to strace's output:
# strace -rT -e open touch /tmp/bla
0.000000 open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000039>
0.000317 open("/lib64/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000102>
0.001461 open("/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000072>
0.000405 open("/tmp/bla", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK, 0666) = 3 <0.000055>
0.000641 +++ exited with 0 +++
#
Now we need to either look for at all syscalls that are marked as
pointers and have some well known names ("filename", "pathname", etc)
and set the arg formatter to the one used for the "open" syscall in this
patch.
This implementation works for syscalls with just a string being copied
from userspace, for matching syscalls with more than one string being
copied via the same probe/trace point (vfs_getname) we need to extend
the vfs_getname probe spec to include the pointer too, but there are
some problems with that in 'perf probe' or the kernel kprobes code, need
to investigate before considering supporting multiple strings per
syscall.

We were using it as a magic number, 1024, fix that.
Eventually we need to stop doing it per line, and do it per
arg, traversing the args at output time, to avoid the memmove()
calls that will be used in the next cset to replace pointers
present at raw_syscalls:sys_enter time with its contents that
appear at probe:vfs_getname time, before raw_syscalls:sys_exit
time.

Currently the command line option settings beats the per event period
settings:
With no global settings, we get per-event configuration:
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 20000 ...
With 'c' option period setup, we get 'c' option value:
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' -c 1000 sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 1000 ...
This patch makes the per-event settings overload the global 'c' option
setup:
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,period=20000/' -c 1000 sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
... { sample_period, sample_freq }: 20000 ...
I think the making the per-event settings to overload any other config
makes more sense than current state. However it breaks the current
'period' term handling, which might cause some noise.. so let's see ;-).
Also fixing parse event tests with the new behaviour.

The semantic associated in tools/perf/ with foo__delete(instance) is to
release all resources referenced by 'instance' members and then release
the memory for 'instance' itself.
The perf_session_env__delete() function isn't doing this, it just does
the first part, but the space used by 'instance' itself isn't freed, as
it is embedded in a larger structure, that will be freed at other stage.
For these cases we se foo__exit(), i.e. the usage is:
void foo__delete(foo)
{
if (foo) {
foo__exit(foo);
free(foo);
}
}
But when we have something like:
struct bar {
struct foo foo;
. . .
}
Then we can't really call foo__delete(&bar.foo), we must have this
instead:
void bar__exit(bar)
{
foo__exit(&bar.foo);
/* free other bar-> resources */
}
void bar__delete(bar)
{
if (bar) {
bar__exit(bar);
free(bar);
}
}
So just rename perf_session_env__delete() to perf_session_env__exit().

The python binding still doesn't provide symbol resolving facilities,
but the recent addition of the trace_event__register_resolver() function
made it add as a dependency the machine__resolve_kernel_addr() method,
that in turn drags all the symbol resolving code.
The problem:
[root@zoo ~]# perf test -v python

test child forked, pid 6853
Traceback (most recent call last):

Fix it by requiring this function to receive the resolver as a

not explicitely refer to an object file not included in
tools/perf/util/python-ext-sources.

When building with a prefix ending with a slash, for example:
$ make prefix=/usr/local/
one of the perf tests fail to compile due to BUILD_STR macro mishandling
bindir_SQ string containing with two slashes:
-DBINDIR="BUILD_STR(/usr/local//bin)"
with the following error:
CC tests/attr.o
tests/attr.c: In function ‘test__attr’:
tests/attr.c:168:50: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘;’ token
snprintf(path_perf, PATH_MAX, "%s/perf", BINDIR);

tests/attr.c:176:1: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘}’ token
}
^
tests/attr.c:176:1: error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type]
}
^
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
This patch works around the problem by "cleaning" the bindir string
using make's abspath function.

The transaction length metrics in perf stat -T broke recently.
It would not match the metric correctly and always print K/sec.
This was caused by a incorrect update of the cycles_in_tx statistics.
Update the correct variable.
Also the check for zero division was reversed, which resulted in K/sec
being printed for no transactions. Fix this also up.

Support processing of PERF_RECORD_SWITCH events and
PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE events. There is a single
tools callback for them both so that the tool must
check the event type before using the extra members
in PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE.
There is still no way to select the events, though.
That is added in a subsequest patch.

Since we now ask libtraceevent, the only user of this payload, to use
perf's symbol resolution routines, there is no need to carry about
~4.5MB per perf.data when we can get it from one of the places the perf
symbol resolution looks for that symtab (debuginfo, ~/.debug/,
/proc/kallsyms, --symfs, etc), using the kernel and modules build-ids to
make sure the right table is used.

We were storing a copy of kallsyms inside perf.data file so that we
could resolve kernel addresses to function (start, name, mod) tuples,
but that can be achieved using the symbol resolving routines we have
in symbols.c, and that are used elsewhere in tools/perf.
So, do just like 'perf trace' did and ask libtraceevent to use perf's
symbol resolution routines.
The next step is to just skip whatever kallsyms data is embedded in
older perf.data files and finally to stop storing kallsyms in the perf
data file, as the 20-bytes build-id stored in perf.data's header is
enough to find out the right symtab (be it ELF, kcore, kallsyms, etc) to
use.

The perf tools have a symbol resolver that includes solving kernel
symbols using either kallsyms or ELF symtabs, and it also is using
libtraceevent to format the trace events fields, including via
subsystem specific plugins, like the "timer" one.
To solve fields like "timer:hrtimer_start"'s "function", libtraceevent
needs a way to map from its value to a function name and addr.
This patch provides a way for tools that already have symbol resolving
facilities to ask libtraceevent to use it when needing to resolve
kernel symbols.

Allows a way of measuring low level kernel implementation of FUTEX_LOCK_PI and
FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI.
The program comes in two flavors:
(i) single futex (default), all threads contend on the same uaddr. For the
sake of the benchmark, we call into kernel space even when the lock is
uncontended. The kernel will set it to TID, any waters that come in and
contend for the pi futex will be handled respectively by the kernel.
(ii) -M option for multiple futexes, each thread deals with its own futex. This
is a trivial scenario and only measures kernel handling of 0->TID transition.

This patch allows 'perf record' to exclude events issued by perf itself
by '--exclude-perf' option.
Before this patch, when doing something like:
# perf record -a -e syscalls:sys_enter_write <cmd>
One could easily get result like this:
# /tmp/perf report --stdio
...
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ ....... .................. ....................
#
99.99% perf libpthread-2.18.so [.] __write_nocancel
0.01% ls libc-2.18.so [.] write
0.01% sshd libc-2.18.so [.] write
...
Where most events are generated by perf itself.
A shell trick can be done to filter perf itself out:
# cat << EOF > ./tmp
> #!/bin/sh
> exec perf record -e ... --filter="common_pid != \$\$" -a sleep 10
> EOF
# chmod a+x ./tmp
# ./tmp
However, doing so is user unfriendly.
This patch extracts evsel iteration framework introduced by patch 'perf
record: Apply filter to all events in a glob matching' into
foreach_evsel_in_last_glob(), and makes exclude_perf() function append
new filter expression to each evsel selected by a '-e' selector.
To avoid losing filters if user pass '--filter' after '--exclude-perf',
this patch uses perf_evsel__append_filter() in both case, instead of
perf_evsel__set_filter() which removes old filter. As a side effect, now
it is possible to use multiple '--filter' option for one selector. They
are combinded with '&&'.

There is an old problem in perf's filter applying which first posted at
Sep. 2014 at https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/9/944 that, if passing
multiple events in a glob matching expression in cmdline then add
'--filter' after them, the filter will be applied on only the last one.
For example:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null &
[1] 464
# perf record -a -e 'syscalls:sys_*_read' --filter 'common_pid != 464' sleep 0.1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.239 MB perf.data (2094 samples) ]
# perf report --stdio | tee
...
# Samples: 2K of event 'syscalls:sys_enter_read'
# Event count (approx.): 2092
...
# Samples: 2 of event 'syscalls:sys_exit_read'
# Event count (approx.): 2
...
In this example, filter only applied on 'syscalls:sys_exit_read', and
there's no way to set filter for ''syscalls:sys_enter_read'.
This patch adds a 'cmdline_group_boundary' for 'struct evsel', and
apply filter on all events between two boundary marks.
After applying this patch:
# perf record -a -e 'syscalls:sys_*_read' --filter 'common_pid != 464' sleep 0.1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.031 MB perf.data (3 samples) ]
# perf report --stdio | tee
...
# Samples: 1 of event 'syscalls:sys_enter_read'
# Event count (approx.): 1
...
# Samples: 2 of event 'syscalls:sys_exit_read'
# Event count (approx.): 2

[ "access", "open", "openat", "statfs", "close" ]
This will be used to implement strace syscall groups in 'perf trace',
but can be used in some other tool, thus being implemented in 'strlist'.

So that we can pass more info to strlist__new() without having to change
its function signature, just adding entries to the strlist_config struct
with sensible defaults for when those fields are not specified.

Commit 5ef7bbb09f ("perf tools: Allow to specify custom linker
command") was meant to enable usage non $(CROSS_COMPILE)ld linker during
perf building.
But implementation didn't take into account the fact that LD is a
pre-defined variable in GNU Make. I.e. it is always defined.
Which means there's no point to check "LD ?= ..." because it will never
succeed.
And so LD will be either that explicitly passed to make like this:
------->8-------
make LD=path_to_my_ld ...
------->8-------
or default value, which is host's "ld".
Latter leads to failure of cross-linkage because instead of cross linker
"$(CROSS_COMPILE)ld" host's "ld" is used.
Fortunately there's a way to do correct substitution of $(CROSS_COMPILE)ld
with user defined LD on command-line.
As a reference was used implementation in "tools/lib/traceevent/Makefile".
Build tested for x86_64 and ARC.
Thanks Jiri for this hint.

At some point:
commit 2c86c7ca76
Author: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>
Date: Mon Mar 17 18:18:54 2014 -0300
perf report: Merge al->filtered with hist_entry->filtered
We stopped dropping samples for things filtered via the --comms, --dsos,
--symbols, etc, i.e. things marked as filtered in the symbol resolution
routines (thread__find_addr_map(), perf_event__preprocess_sample(),
etc).
But then, in:
commit 268397cb2a
Author: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>
Date: Tue Apr 22 14:49:31 2014 +0900
perf top/tui: Update nr_entries properly after a filter is applied
We don't take into account entries that were filtered in
perf_event__preprocess_sample() and friends, which leads to
inconsistency in the browser seek routines, that expects the number of
hist_entry->filtered entries to match what it thinks is the number of
unfiltered, browsable entries.
So, for instance, when we do:
perf top --symbols ___non_existent_symbol___
the hist_browser__nr_entries() routine thinks there are no filters in
place, uses the hists->nr_entries but all entries are filtered, leading
to a segfault.
Tested with:
perf top --symbols malloc,free --percentage=relative
Freezing, by pressing 'f', at any time and doing the math on the
percentages ends up with 100%, ditto for:
perf top --dsos libpthread-2.20.so,libxul.so --percentage=relative
Both were segfaulting, all fixed now.
More work needed to do away with checking if filters are in place, we
should just use the nr_non_filtered_samples counter, no need to
conditionally use it or hists.nr_filter, as what the browser does is
just show unfiltered stuff. An audit of how it is being accounted is
needed, this is the minimal fix.

When setting yup the symbols library we setup several filter lists,
for dsos, comms, symbols, etc, and there is code that, if there are
filters, do certain operations, like recalculate the number of non
filtered histogram entries in the top/report TUI.
But they were considering just the "Zoom" filters, when they need to
take into account as well the above mentioned filters (perf top --comms,
--dsos, etc).
So store in symbol_conf.has_filter true if any of those filters is in
place.

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"1) Fixes for a handful of smatch reports (Thanks Dan C.!) and minor
bug fixes (patches 1-6)
2) Correctness fixes to the BLK-mode nvdimm driver (patches 7-10).
Granted these are slightly large for a -rc update. They have been
out for review in one form or another since the end of May and were
deferred from the merge window while we settled on the "PMEM API"
for the PMEM-mode nvdimm driver (ie memremap_pmem, memcpy_to_pmem,
and wmb_pmem).
Now that those apis are merged we implement them in the BLK driver
to guarantee that mmio aperture moves stay ordered with respect to
incoming read/write requests, and that writes are flushed through
those mmio-windows and platform-buffers to be persistent on media.
These pass the sub-system unit tests with the updates to
tools/testing/nvdimm, and have received a successful build-report from
the kbuild robot (468 configs).
With acks from Rafael for the touches to drivers/acpi/"
* 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/djbw/nvdimm:
nfit: add support for NVDIMM "latch" flag
nfit: update block I/O path to use PMEM API
tools/testing/nvdimm: add mock acpi_nfit_flush_address entries to nfit_test
tools/testing/nvdimm: fix return code for unimplemented commands
tools/testing/nvdimm: mock ioremap_wt
pmem: add maintainer for include/linux/pmem.h
nfit: fix smatch "use after null check" report
nvdimm: Fix return value of nvdimm_bus_init() if class_create() fails
libnvdimm: smatch cleanups in __nd_ioctl
sparse: fix misplaced __pmem definition
In preparation for fixing the BLK path to properly use "directed
pcommit" enable the unit test infrastructure to emit mock "flush"
tables. Writes to these flush addresses trigger a memory controller to
flush its internal buffers to persistent media, similar to the x86
"pcommit" instruction.
