The perf top uses 'dso,symbol' sort keys by default so it overlooked a
problem in task's comm resolving. When the sort key contains 'comm',
some task's comm is not shown properly. This is because the
perf_top__mmap_read_idx() checks the cpumode value improperly.
The cpumode value of non-sample events are 0 (PERF_RECORD_MISC_CPUMODE_
UNKNOWN) so the events will be ignored by the switch statement. This patch
allows it for non-sample events.

A previous patch added a synthesized comm event for forked child process
but it missed that the event should contain area for sample_id_hdr at
the end. It worked by accident since the perf_event union contains
bigger event structs like mmap_events.
This patch fixes it by dynamically allocating event struct including
those area like in perf_event__synthesize_thread_map().

If the user doesn't specify any event, try the most precise "cycles"
available, i.e. start by "cycles:ppp" and go on removing "p" till it
works.
E.g.
$ perf record usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (11 samples) ]
$ perf evlist
cycles:pp
$ perf evlist -v
cycles:pp: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type:
IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1,
enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, precise_ip: 2, sample_id_all: 1,
exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
$ grep 'model name' /proc/cpuinfo | head -1
model name : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3667U CPU @ 2.00GHz
$
When 'cycles' appears explicitely is specified this will not be tried,
i.e. the user has full control of the level of precision to be used:
$ perf record -e cycles usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.016 MB perf.data (9 samples) ]

perf probe --list will get a segfault if the first kprobe event is on a

e.g.
----

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

This is because the debuginfo_cache fails to handle NULL module name,
which causes segfault on strcmp. (Note that strcmp("something", NULL)
always causes segfault)
To fix this debuginfo_cache__open always translates the NULL module name
to "kernel" (this is correct, because NULL module name means opening the
debuginfo for the kernel)

autofdo incorrectly expects branch flags to include either mispred or
predicted. In fact mispred = predicted = 0 is valid and means the flags
are not supported, which they aren't by Intel PT.
To make autofdo work, add a config option which will cause Intel PT
decoder to set the mispred flag on all branches.
Below is an example of using Intel PT with autofdo. The example is
also added to the Intel PT documentation. It requires autofdo
(https://github.com/google/autofdo) and gcc version 5. The bubble
sort example is from the AutoFDO tutorial (https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/AutoFDO/Tutorial)
amended to take the number of elements as a parameter.
$ gcc-5 -O3 sort.c -o sort_optimized
$ ./sort_optimized 30000
Bubble sorting array of 30000 elements
2254 ms
$ cat ~/.perfconfig
[intel-pt]
mispred-all
$ perf record -e intel_pt//u ./sort 3000
Bubble sorting array of 3000 elements
58 ms
[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.939 MB perf.data ]
$ perf inject -i perf.data -o inj --itrace=i100usle --strip
$ ./create_gcov --binary=./sort --profile=inj --gcov=sort.gcov -gcov_version=1
$ gcc-5 -O3 -fauto-profile=sort.gcov sort.c -o sort_autofdo
$ ./sort_autofdo 30000
Bubble sorting array of 30000 elements
2155 ms
Note there is currently no advantage to using Intel PT instead of LBR,
but that may change in the future if greater use is made of the data.

Add a new option --strip which is used with --itrace to strip out
non-synthesized events. This results in a perf.data file that is
simpler for external tools to parse. In particular, this can be used to
prepare a perf.data file for consumption by autofdo.
A subsequent patch makes a change to Intel PT also to enable use with
autofdo and gives an example of that use.

perf script has a setting to set the maximum stack depth when processing
callchains. The setting defaults to the hard-coded maximum definition
PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH which is 127.
It is possible, when processing instruction traces, to synthesize
callchains. Synthesized callchains do not have the kernel size
limitation and are whatever size the user requests, although validation
presently prevents the user requested a value greater that 1024. The
default value is 16.
To allow for synthesized callchains, make the scripting_max_stack value
at least the same size as the synthesized callchain size.

perf report has an option (--max-stack) to set the maximum stack depth
when processing callchains. The option defaults to the hard-coded
maximum definition PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH which is 127. The intention of
the option is to allow the user to reduce the processing time by
reducing the amount of the callchain that is processed.
It is also possible, when processing instruction traces, to synthesize
callchains. Synthesized callchains do not have the kernel size
limitation and are whatever size the user requests, although validation
presently prevents the user requested a value greater that 1024. The
default value is 16.
To allow for synthesized callchains, make the max_stack value at least
the same size as the synthesized callchain size.

Add support for generating branch stack context for PT samples. The
decoder reports a configurable number of branches as branch context for
each sample. Internally it keeps track of them by using a simple sliding
window. We also flush the last branch buffer on each sample to avoid
overlapping intervals.
This is useful for:
- Reporting accurate basic block edge frequencies through the perf
report branch view
- Using with --branch-history to get the wider context of samples
- Other users of LBRs
Also the Documentation is updated.
Examples:
Record with Intel PT:
perf record -e intel_pt//u ls
Branch stacks are used by default if synthesized so:
perf report --itrace=ile
is the same as:
perf report --itrace=ile -b
Branch history can be requested also:
perf report --itrace=igle --branch-history

A non-synthesized event might not have a branch stack if branch stacks
have been synthesized (using itrace options).
An example of that is when Intel PT records sched_switch events for
decoding purposes. Those sched_switch events do not have branch stacks
even though the Intel PT decoder may be synthesizing other events that
do due to the itrace options.

TSC packets contain only 7 bytes of TSC. The 8th byte is assumed to
change so infrequently that its value can be inferred. However the
logic must cater for a 7 byte wraparound, which it does by adding 1 to
the top byte.
The existing code was doing that with a while loop even though the
addition should only need to be done once. That logic won't work (will
loop forever) if TSC wraps around at the 8th byte. Theoretically that
would take at least 10 years, unless something else went wrong.
And what else could go wrong. Well, if the chunks of trace data are
processed out of order, it will make it look like the 7-byte TSC has
gone backwards (i.e. wrapped). If that happens 256 times then stuck in
the while loop it will be.
Fix that by getting rid of the unnecessary while loop.

Processing instruction tracing data (e.g. Intel PT) can synthesize
callchains e.g.
$ perf record -e intel_pt//u uname
$ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige
However perf report's callgraph option gets extra validation, so:
$ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige -gflat
Error:
Selected -g or --branch-history but no callchain data. Did
you call 'perf record' without -g?
# To display the perf.data header info,
# please use --header/--header-only options.
#
Fix the validation to know about instruction tracing options so
above command works.
A side-effect of the change is that the default option to
accumulate the callchain of child functions comes into force.
To get the previous behaviour the --no-children option can be
used e.g.
$ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige -gflat --no-children

Instruction tracing options (i.e. --itrace) include an option for
sampling instructions at an arbitrary period. e.g.
--itrace=i10us
means make an 'instructions' sample for every 10us of trace.
Currently the logic does not distinguish between a period of
zero and no period being specified at all, so it gets treated
as the default period which is 100000. That doesn't really
make sense.
Fix it so that zero period is accepted and treated as meaning
"as often as possible".
In the case of Intel PT that is the same as a period of 1 and
a unit of 'instructions' (i.e. --itrace=i1i).

A copy of /proc/kcore containing the kernel text can be made to the
buildid cache. e.g.
perf buildid-cache -v -k /proc/kcore
To workaround objdump limitations, a copy is also made when annotating
against /proc/kcore.
The copying process stops working from libelf about v1.62 onwards (the
problem was found with v1.63).
The cause is that a call to gelf_getphdr() in kcore__add_phdr() fails
because additional validation has been added to gelf_getphdr().
The use of gelf_getphdr() is a misguided attempt to get default
initialization of the Gelf_Phdr structure. That should not be
necessary because every member of the Gelf_Phdr structure is
subsequently assigned. So just remove the call to gelf_getphdr().
Similarly, a call to gelf_getehdr() in gelf_kcore__init() can be
removed also.

When merging the user and kernel DSO lists a bug was introduced where
'perf probe' stopped being able to add probes to modules using its short
name:
# perf probe -m usbnet --add usbnet_start_xmit
usbnet_start_xmit is out of .text, skip it.
Error: Failed to add events.
#
With this fix it works again:
# perf probe -m usbnet --add usbnet_start_xmit
Added new event:
probe:usbnet_start_xmit (on usbnet_start_xmit in usbnet)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:usbnet_start_xmit -aR sleep 1

When perf creates a new child to profile, the events are enabled on
exec(). And in this case, it doesn't synthesize any event for the
child since they'll be generated during exec(). But there's an window
between the enabling and the event generation.
It used to be overcome since samples are only in kernel (so we always
have the map) and the comm is overridden by a later COMM event.
However it won't work if events are processed and displayed before the
COMM event overrides like in 'perf script'. This leads to those early
samples (like native_write_msr_safe) not having a comm but pid (like
':15328').
So it needs to synthesize COMM event for the child explicitly before
enabling so that it can have a correct comm. But at this time, the
comm will be "perf" since it's not exec-ed yet.

Fix a segfault bug and a small mistake in perf probe -d.
Since the "ulist" in perf_del_probe_events is never initialized,
strlist__add(ulist, *) always causes a segfault when removing
uprobe events by perf probe -d.
Also, the "str" local variable is never released if fail to
allocate the "klist". This fixes it too.
This has been introduced by the commit e607f1426b ("perf probe:
Print deleted events in cmd_probe()").

If a session contains no events, we can get stuck in an infinite loop in
__perf_session__process_events, with a non-zero file_size and data_offset, but
a zero data_size.
In this case, we can mmap the entirety of the file (consisting of the file and
attribute headers), and fetch_mmaped_event will correctly refuse to read any
(unmapped and non-existent) event headers. This causes
__perf_session__process_events to unmap the file and retry with the exact same
parameters, getting stuck in an infinite loop.
This has been observed to result in an exit-time hang when counting
rare/unschedulable events with perf record, and can be triggered artificially
with the script below:
----
#!/bin/sh
printf "REPRO: launching perf\n";
./perf record -e software/config=9/ sleep 1 &
PERF_PID=$!;
sleep 0.002;
kill -2 $PERF_PID;
printf "REPRO: waiting for perf (%d) to exit...\n" "$PERF_PID";
wait $PERF_PID;
printf "REPRO: perf exited\n";
----
To avoid this, have __perf_session__process_events bail out early when
the file has no data (i.e. it has no events).
Commiter note:
I only managed to reproduce this when setting
/proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict to '1' and changing the code to
purposefully not process any samples and no synthesized samples, i.e.
kptr_restrict prevents 'record' from synthesizing the kernel mmaps for
vmlinux + modules and since it is a workload started from perf, we don't
synthesize mmap/comm records for existing threads.
Adrian Hunter managed to reproduce it in his environment tho.

Per-pkg events need to be captured once per processor socket. The code
in check_per_pkg() ensures only one value per processor package is used.
However there is a problem with this function in case the first CPU of
the package does not measure anything for the per-pkg event, but other
CPUs do.
Consider the following:
$ create cgroup FOO; echo $$ >FOO/tasks; taskset -c 1 noploop &
$ perf stat -a -I 1000 -e intel_cqm/llc_occupancy/ -G FOO sleep 100
1.00000 <not counted> Bytes intel_cqm/llc_occupancy/ FOO
The reason for this is that CPU0 in the cgroup has nothing running on it.
Yet check_per_plg() will mark socket0 as processed and no other event
value will be considered for the socket.
This patch fixes the problem by having check_per_pkg() only consider
events which actually ran.

The init/exit_symbols_maps() functions are to setup and cleanup
necessary info for probe events. But they need to be called from out of
the probe code now, so this patch exports them.
However the names are too generic, so change them to have 'probe'. :)

The cleanup_perf_probe_events() frees all resources related to a perf
probe event. However it only freed resources in trace probe events, not
perf probe events. So call clear_perf_probe_event() too.

The bug resides in perf_evsel__hists_browse() that, in the above
circumstance browser->selection can be NULL, but code after

This patch fix it by checking browser->selection before fetching

[ Don't blindly use env->cpu[al.cpu].socket_id & use machine->env, fixes by Jiri & Arnaldo ]
Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
The 'struct machine' represents the machine where the samples were/are
being collected, and we also have a 'struct perf_env' with extra details
about such machine, that we were collecting at 'perf.data' creation time
but we also needed when no perf.data file is being used, such as in
'perf top'.
So, get those structs closer together, as they provide a bigger picture
of the sample's environment.
In 'perf session', when the file argument is NULL, we can assume that
the tool is sampling the running machine, so point machine->env to
the global put in place in previous patches, while set it to the
perf_header.env one when reading from a file.
This paves the way for machine->env to be used in
perf_event__preprocess_sample to populate addr_location.socket.

Out of the code to write the cpu topology map in the perf.data file
header.
Now if one needs the CPU topology map for the running machine, one needs
to call perf_env__read_cpu_topology_map(perf_env) and the info will be
stored in perf_env.cpu.
For now we're using a global perf_env variable, that will have its
contents freed after we run a builtin.

The del_perf_probe_events() does 2 things:
1. find existing events which match to filter
2. delete such trace events from kernel
But sometimes we need to do something with the trace events. So split
the funtion into two, so that it can access intermediate trace events
name using strlist if needed.

Also it combines the output if more than one event is added.
Before:
$ sudo perf probe -a do_fork -a do_exit
Added new event:
probe:do_fork (on do_fork)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:do_fork -aR sleep 1

'struct trace_probe_event' pointer to 'struct perf_probe_event'.
The trace_probe_event information gives further patches a chance to
access actual probe points and actual arguments.
Using them, 'perf probe' can get the whole list of added probes and
print them at once.
Other users like the upcoming bpf_loader will be able to attach one bpf
program to different probing points of an inline function (which has
multiple probing points) and glob functions.
Moreover, by reading the arguments information, bpf code for reading
those arguments can be generated.

The add_perf_probe_events() does 3 things:
1. convert all perf events to trace events
2. add all trace events to kernel
3. cleanup all trace events
But sometimes we need to do something with the trace events. So split
the funtion into three, so that it can access intermediate trace events
via struct __event_package if needed.

Add support for selecting and processing PERF_RECORD_SWITCH events for
use by Intel PT. If they are available, they will be used in preference
to sched_switch events.
This enables an unprivileged user to trace multi-threaded or
multi-process workloads with any level of perf_event_paranoid. However
it depends on kernel support for PERF_RECORD_SWITCH.
Without this patch, tracing a multi-threaded workload will decode
without error but all the data will be attributed to the main thread.
Without this patch, tracing a multi-process workload will result in
decoder errors because the decoder will not know which executable is
executing.

The MPX instructions are presently not described in the SDM
opcode maps, and there are not encoding characters for bnd
registers, address method or operand type. So the kernel
opcode map is using 'Gv' for bnd registers and 'Ev' for
everything else. That is fine because the instruction
decoder does not use that information anyway, except as
an indication that there is a ModR/M byte.
Nevertheless, in some cases the 'Gv' and 'Ev' are the wrong
way around, BNDLDX and BNDSTX have 2 operands not 3, and it
wouldn't hurt to identify the mandatory prefixes.
This has no effect on the decoding of valid instructions,
but the addition of the mandatory prefixes will cause some
invalid instructions to error out that wouldn't have
previously.
Note that perf tools has a copy of the instruction decoder
and provides a test for new instructions which includes MPX
instructions e.g.
$ perf test "x86 ins"
39: Test x86 instruction decoder - new instructions : Ok
Or to see the details:
$ perf test -v "x86 ins"

Add a new test titled:
Test x86 instruction decoder - new instructions
The purpose of this test is to check the instruction decoder after new
instructions have been added. Initially, MPX instructions are tested
which are already supported, but the definitions in x86-opcode-map.txt
will be tweaked in a subsequent patch, after which this test can be run
to verify those changes.
The data for the test comes from assembly language instructions in
insn-x86-dat-src.c which is converted into bytes by the scripts
gen-insn-x86-dat.sh and gen-insn-x86-dat.awk, and included into the test
program insn-x86.c as insn-x86-dat-32.c and insn-x86-dat-64.c.
The conversion is not done as part of the perf tools build because the
test data must be under (git) change control in order for the test to be
repeatably-correct. Also it may require a recent version of binutils.

perf tools has a copy of the x86 instruction decoder used by the kernel.
The expectation is that the copy will be kept more-or-less in-synch with
the kernel version. Consequently it is helpful to know if there are
differences.
This patch adds a check into the perf tools build so that a diff is done
on the sources, and a warning is printed if they are different. Note
that the warning is not fatal and the build continues as normal.
The check is done as part of building the instruction decoder, so, like
a compiler warning, it is not seen unless the instruction decoder has to
be re-compiled. e.g.
$ make -C tools/perf >/dev/null
$ echo "/* blah */" >> tools/perf/util/intel-pt-decoder/inat_types.h
$ make -C tools/perf >/dev/null
Warning: Intel PT: x86 instruction decoder differs from kernel
$ make -C tools/perf >/dev/null

In a couple of cases the 'comm' member of 'union event' has been used
instead of the correct member ('fork') when processing exit events.
In the cases where it has been used incorrectly, only the 'pid' and
'tid' are affected. The 'pid' value would be correct anyway because it
is in the same position in 'comm' and 'fork' events, but the 'tid' would
have been incorrectly assigned from 'ppid'.
However, for exit events, the kernel puts the current task in the 'ppid'
and 'ttid' which is the same as the exiting task. That is 'ppid' ==
'pid' and if the task is not multi-threaded, 'pid' == 'tid' i.e. the
data goes wrong only when tracing multi-threaded programs.
It is hard to find an example of how this would produce an error in
practice. There are 3 occurences of the fix:
1. perf script is only affected if !sample_id_all which only happens on
old kernels.
2. intel_pt is only affected when decoding without timestamps
and would probably still decode correctly - the exit event is
only used to flush out data which anyway gets flushed at the
end of the session
3. intel_bts also uses the exit event to flush data which
would probably not cause errors as it would get flushed at
the end of the session instead

This patch stores the cpu socket_id and core_id in a perf.data header,
and reads them into the perf_env struct when processing perf.data files.
The changes modifies the CPU_TOPOLOGY section, making sure it is
backward/forward compatible.
The patch checks the section size before reading the core and socket ids.
It never reads data crossing the section boundary. An old perf binary
without this patch can also correctly read the perf.data from a new perf
with this patch.
Because the new info is added at the end of the cpu_topology section, an
old perf tool ignores the extra data.
Examples:
1. New perf with this patch read perf.data from an old perf without the
patch:
$ perf_new report -i perf_old.data --header-only -I
......
# sibling threads : 33
# sibling threads : 34
# sibling threads : 35
# Core ID and Socket ID information is not available
# node0 meminfo : total = 32823872 kB, free = 29315548 kB
# node0 cpu list : 0-17,36-53
......
2. Old perf without the patch reads perf.data from a new perf with the
patch:
$ perf_old report -i perf_new.data --header-only -I
......
# sibling threads : 33
# sibling threads : 34
# sibling threads : 35
# node0 meminfo : total = 32823872 kB, free = 29190932 kB
# node0 cpu list : 0-17,36-53
......
3. New perf read new perf.data:
$ perf_new report -i perf_new.data --header-only -I
......
# sibling threads : 33
# sibling threads : 34
# sibling threads : 35
# CPU 0: Core ID 0, Socket ID 0
# CPU 1: Core ID 1, Socket ID 0

The 'imm' field of BPF_EMIT_CALL becomes ((FUNC) - BPF_FUNC_unspec) to
suit user space code generator.

[ Removed stylistic changes, so that a diff to the original file gets reduced ]

When profiling the kernel with the 'srcfile' sort key it's common to
"get stuck" in include. For example a lot of code uses current or other
inlines, so they get accounted to some random include file. This is not
very useful as a high level categorization.
For example just profiling the idle loop usually shows mostly inlines,
so you never see the actual cpuidle file.
This patch changes the 'srcfile' sort key to always unwind the inline
stack using BFD/DWARF. So we always account to the base function that
called the inline.
In a few cases include is still shown (for example for MSR accesses),
but that is because they get inlining expanded as part of assigning to a
global function pointer. For the majority it works fine though.
v2: Use simpler while loop. Add maximum iteration count.

This patch makes perf compile on non x86 platforms by defining a weak
symbol for sample_reg_masks[] in util/perf_regs.c.
The patch also moves the REG() and REG_END() macros into the
util/per_regs.h header file. The macros are renamed to
SMPL_REG/SMPL_REG_END to avoid clashes with other header files.

This patch modifies the -I/--int-regs option to enablepassing the name
of the registers to sample on interrupt. Registers can be specified by
their symbolic names. For instance on x86, --intr-regs=ax,si.
The motivation is to reduce the size of the perf.data file and the
overhead of sampling by only collecting the registers useful to a
specific analysis. For instance, for value profiling, sampling only the
registers used to passed arguements to functions.
With no parameter, the --intr-regs still records all possible registers
based on the architecture.
To name registers, it is necessary to use the long form of the option,
i.e., --intr-regs:
$ perf record --intr-regs=si,di,r8,r9 .....
To record any possible registers:
$ perf record -I .....
$ perf report --intr-regs ...
To display the register, one can use perf report -D
To list the available registers:
$ perf record --intr-regs=\?
available registers: AX BX CX DX SI DI BP SP IP FLAGS CS SS R8 R9 R10 R11 R12 R13 R14 R15

Before this patch there's no way to connect a loaded bpf object
to its source file. However, during applying perf's '--filter' to BPF
object, without this connection makes things harder, because perf loads
all programs together, but '--filter' setting is for each object.
The API of bpf_object__open_buffer() is changed to allow passing a name.
Fortunately, at this time there's only one user of it (perf test LLVM),
so we change it together.

This patch creates a new script (compaction-times) to report time
spent in mm compaction. It is possible to report times in nanoseconds
(default) or microseconds (-u).
The option -p will break down results by process id, -pv will further
decompose by each compaction entry/exit.
For each compaction entry/exit what is reported is controlled by the
options:
-t report only timing
-m report migration stats
-ms report migration scanner stats
-fs report free scanner stats
The default is to report all.
Entries may be further filtered by pid, pid-range or comm (regex).
The script is useful when analysing workloads that compact memory. The
most common example will be THP allocations on systems with a lot of
uptime that has fragmented memory.
This is an example of using the script to analyse a thpscale from
mmtests which deliberately fragments memory and allocates THP in 4
separate threads

print_aggr() fails to print per-core/per-socket statistics after commit
582ec0829b ("perf stat: Fix per-socket output bug for uncore events")
if events have differnt cpus. Because in print_aggr(), aggr_get_id needs
index (not cpu id) to find core/pkg id. Also, evsel cpu maps should be
used to get aggregated id.
Here is an example:
Counting events cycles,uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/. (Uncore event has
cpumask 0,18)
$ perf stat -e cycles,uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/ -C0,18 --per-core sleep 2
Without this patch, it failes to get CPU 18 result.

Sometimes when post-processing output from `perf script` one does not
want to demangle C++ symbol names. Add an option to allow this.
Also add --[no-]demangle-kernel to be consistent with top/report/probe.

It should be useful to allow 'perf probe' probe at absolute offset of a
target. For example, when (u)probing at a instruction of a shared object
in a embedded system where debuginfo is not avaliable but we know the
offset of that instruction by manually digging.
This patch enables following perf probe command syntax:
# perf probe 0xffffffff811e6615
And
# perf probe /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so 0xeb860
In the above example, we don't need a anchor symbol, so it is possible
to compute absolute addresses using other methods and then use 'perf
probe' to create the probing points.
v1 -> v2:
Drop the leading '+' in cmdline;
Allow uprobing at offset 0x0;
Improve 'perf probe -l' result when uprobe at area without debuginfo.
v2 -> v3:
Split bugfix to a separated patch.

This patch fixes a bug that, when offset is provided but function is
lost, parse_perf_probe_point() will give a "" string as function name,
so the checking code at the end of parse_perf_probe_point() become
useless. For example:
# perf probe +0x1234
Failed to find symbol in kernel
Error: Failed to add events.
After this patch:
# perf probe +0x1234
Semantic error :Offset requires an entry function.

When manually added uprobe point with zero address, 'perf probe -l'
reports error. For example:
# echo p:probe_libc/abs_0 /path/to/lib.bin:0x0 arg1=%ax > \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
# perf probe -l
Error: Failed to show event list.
Probing at 0x0 is possible and useful when lib.bin is not a normal
shared object but is manually mapped. However, in this case kernel
report:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
p:probe_libc/abs_0 /path/to/lib.bin:0x (null) arg1=%ax

'perf probe -l' reports error if it is unable find symbol through
address. Here is an example.
# echo 'p:probe_libc/abs_5 /lib64/libc.so.6:0x5' >

# perf probe -l
Error: Failed to show event list
Also, this situation triggers a logical inconsistency in
convert_to_perf_probe_point() that, it returns ENOMEM but actually it
never try strdup().
This patch removes !tp->module && !is_kprobe condition, so it always
uses address to build function name if symbol not found.

CYC packets are a new Intel PT feature.
CYC packets provide even finer grain timestamp information than MTC and
TSC packets. A CYC packet contains the number of CPU cycles since the
last CYC packet. Unlike MTC and TSC packets, CYC packets are only sent
when another packet is also sent.
Support for this feature is indicated by:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/psb_cyc
which contains "1" if the feature is supported and "0" otherwise.
CYC packets can be requested using a PMU config term e.g. perf record -e
intel_pt/cyc/u sleep 1
The frequency of CYC packets can also be specified. e.g. perf record -e
intel_pt/cyc,cyc_thresh=2/u sleep 1
CYC packets are not requested by default.
Valid cyc_thresh values are given by:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/cycle_thresholds
which contains a hexadecimal value, the bits of which represent valid
values e.g. bit 2 set means value 2 is valid.
The value represents the minimum number of CPU cycles that must have
passed before a CYC packet can be sent. The number of CPU cycles is:
2 ^ (value - 1)
e.g. value 4 means 8 CPU cycles must pass before a CYC packet can be
sent. Note a CYC packet is still only sent when another packet is sent,
not at, e.g. every 8 CPU cycles.
If an invalid value is entered, the error message will give a list of
valid values e.g.
$ perf record -e intel_pt/cyc,cyc_thresh=15/u uname
Invalid cyc_thresh for intel_pt. Valid values are: 0-12
tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt is updated in a later patch as
there are a number of new features being added.

CYC packets provide even finer grain timestamp information than MTC and
TSC packets. A CYC packet contains the number of CPU cycles since the
last CYC packet.
This patch just adds decoder support. The CPU frequency can be related
to TSC using the Maximum Non-Turbo Ratio in combination with the CBR
(core-to-bus ratio) packet. However more accuracy is achieved by simply
interpolating the number of cycles between other timing packets like MTC
or TSC. This patch takes the latter approach.
Support for a default value and validation of values is provided by a
later patch. Also documentation is updated in a separate patch.

VMCS and the newly defined bit in PIP are used with virtualization which

The reason is caused by libdw that, if libdw is statically linked, it
can't load libebl_{arch}.so reliable.
In this case it is still possible to get the address from
/proc/kalksyms. However, perf tries that only when libdw returns

This patch gives it another chance to utilize symbol table, even if

Added new event:
Writing event: p:probe/sys_epoll_pwait _text+2276672
probe:sys_epoll_pwait (on sys_epoll_pwait)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:sys_epoll_pwait -aR sleep 1
Although libdw returns an error (Failed to get call frame), perf tries
symbol table and finally gets correct address.

Map clone was written before we introduced reference counts for
maps and dsos, so all that was needed was just a copy and then we
would insert it into the new map_groups instance.
Fix it by, after copying, initializing the map->refcnt, grabbing
a struct dso refcount and resetting pointers that may be used
to determine if a map, when deleted, is in a rb_tree.

Add a script to produce a call-graph from data exported to a postgresql
database and derived from a processor trace event like intel_pt or intel_bts.
Refer to comments in the scripts call-graph-from-postgresql.py and
export-to-postgresql.py for more details on how to set up the environment,
install the required packages, etc.

Events that don't sample the timestamp have a timestamp value of -1.
Intel PT processing wasn't taking that into account.
This is particularly noticeable with Intel BTS because timestamps are
not requested by default.
Then, if the conversion of -1 to TSC results in a small number, the
processing is unaffected.
However if the conversion results in a big number, then the data is
processed prematurely before relevant sideband data like mmap events,
which in turn results in samples with unknown dsos.
Commiter note:
Since BTS wasn't upstream, I split the patch to fold the BTS part with
the patch introducing it, to avoid having this bug in the commit
history. PT was already upstream, so this patch contains that part.

The "/proc/kcore requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO" message comes up all the time
for 'perf script' if vmlinux is not found and the user isn't root, even
when the kernel is not being traced and even though the message is only
really relevant for annotation.
Change it to pr_debug and instead put a note in the message displayed if
annotation is not possible.
Also, the file being accessed might not be /proc/kcore. Tools can be
directed to a different location using the --kallsyms option in which
case kcore is expected to be in the same directory. Adjust the message
so it is not misleading in that case.

Patch "perf script: Don't assume evsel position of tracking events"
changed 'perf script' to use 'perf_evlist__id2evsel()'. That results
in a segfault if there is more than 1 event and there are
synthesized mmap events e.g.
$ perf record -e cycles,instructions -p$$ sleep 1
$ perf script --show-mmap-events
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
That happens because these synthesized events have an 'id' of zero
which does not match any 'evsel'.
Currently, these synthesized events use the sample type of the first
evsel.
Change 'perf_evlist__id2evsel()' to reflect that which also makes
it consistent with 'perf_evlist__event2evsel()'.

After recording, 'perf record' post-processes the data to determine
which buildids are needed.
That processing must process the data in time order, if possible,
because otherwise dependent events, like forks and mmaps, will not make
sense.

When processing a fork event, the tools lookup the parent thread by its
tid. In a couple of cases, it is possible for that thread to have the
wrong pid.
That can happen if the data is being processed out of order, or if the
(fork) event that would have removed the erroneous thread was lost.
Assume the latter case, print a dump message, remove the erroneous
thread, create a new one with the correct pid, and keep going.

Add support for Intel Processor Trace.
Intel PT support fits within the new auxtrace infrastructure. Recording
is supporting by identifying the Intel PT PMU, parsing options and
setting up events.
Decoding is supported by queuing up trace data by cpu or thread and then
decoding synchronously delivering synthesized event samples into the
session processing for tools to consume.
