  perf tools: Set buildid dir under symfs when --symfs is provided (2016-05-19 19:04:36 -0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements and fixes:

User visible:

- We should not use the current value of the kernel.perf_event_max_stack as the
  default value for --max-stack in tools that can process perf.data files, they
  will only match if that sysctl wasn't changed from its default value at the
  time the perf.data file was recorded, fix it.

  This fixes a bug where a 'perf record -a --call-graph dwarf ; perf report'
  produces a glibc invalid free backtrace (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Provide a better warning when running 'perf trace' on a system where the
  kernel.kptr_restrict is set to 1, similar to the one produced by 'perf record',
  noticed on ubuntu 16.04 where this is the default kptr_restrict setting.
  (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fix ordering of instructions in the annotation code, noticed when annotating
  ARM binaries, now that table is auto-ordered at first use, to avoid more such
  problems (Chris Ryder)

- Fix searching the vdso image to support cross-platform analysis (He Kuang)

- Set buildid dir under symfs when --symfs is provided (He Kuang)

- Fix the 'exit_group()' syscall output in 'perf trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Only auto set call-graph to "dwarf" in 'perf trace' when syscalls are being
  traced (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

[PATCH 01/11] perf tools: Find vdso supporting cross-platform analysis

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com>

There's a problem in machine__findnew_vdso(), vdso buildid generated by
a 32-bit machine stores it with the name 'vdso', but when processing
buildid on a 64-bit machine with the same 'perf.data', perf will search
for vdso named as 'vdso32' and get failed.

This patch tries to find the exsiting dsos in machine->dsos by thread
dso_type. 64-bit thread tries to find vdso with name 'vdso', because all
64-bit vdso is named as that. 32-bit thread first tries to find vdso
with name 'vdso32' if this thread was run on 64-bit machine, if failed,
then it tries 'vdso' which indicates that the thread was run on 32-bit
machine when recording.

[PATCH 02/11] perf machine: Do not bail out if not managing to read ref reloc symbol

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

This means the user can't access /proc/kallsyms, for instance, because
/proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict is set to 1.

Instead leave the ref_reloc_sym as NULL and code using it will cope.

This allows 'perf trace' to work on such systems for !root, the only
issue would be when trying to resolve kernel symbols, which happens,
for instance, in some libtracevent plugins.  A warning for that case
will be provided in the next patch in this series.

Noticed in Ubuntu 16.04, that comes with kptr_restrict=1.

This doesn't return, so there is no raw_syscalls:sys_exit for it, add

[PATCH 07/11] perf tools: Fix usage of max_stack sysctl

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

We cannot limit processing stacks from the current value of the sysctl,
as we may be processing perf.data files, possibly from other machines.

Instead use the old PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH, the sysctl default, that can
be overriden using --max-stack or equivalent.

[PATCH 08/11] perf annotate: Fix identification of ARM blt and bls instructions

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Chris Ryder <chris.ryder@arm.com>

The ARM blt and bls instructions are not correctly identified when
parsing assembly because the list of recognised instructions must be
sorted by name. Swap the ordering of blt and bls.

[PATCH 09/11] perf annotate: Sort list of recognised instructions

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Chris Ryder <chris.ryder@arm.com>

Currently the list of instructions recognised by perf annotate has to be
explicitly written in sorted order. This makes it easy to make mistakes
when adding new instructions. Sort the list of instructions on first
access.

skips the local buildid dir when '--symfs' is given, so that every

So, here is a new pull req, removing the following patch, due to that
segfault you noticed while testing 'perf top' on an ubuntu system:
 
> He Kuang (2):
>       perf tools: Find vdso supporting cross-platform analysis

The new tag is perf-core-for-mingo-20160520.

Kuang, Ingo proposed the patch below to fix the problem he noticed
(notice the 'dso && ' part, as __dsos__find() may return NULL), but he
had several other issues with code touched by this patch, I'll try to
address those, please check the patch below and resubmit.
