[PATCH 01/15] perf callchain: Recording 'dwarf' callchains do not need DWARF unwinding support

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com>

There is no need to check for DWARF unwinding support when using the
'dwarf' callchain record method, as this will only ask the kernel to
collect stack dumps for later DWARF CFI processing, which can be done in
another machine, where the support for DWARF unwinding need to be
present.

[PATCH 02/15] perf stat: Scale values by unit before metrics

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

Scale values by unit before passing them to the metrics printing
functions.  This is needed for TopDown, because it needs to scale the
slots correctly by pipeline width / SMTness.

For existing metrics it shouldn't make any difference, as those
generally use events that don't have any units.

[PATCH 03/15] perf script: Fix incorrect python db-export error message

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Chris Phlipot <cphlipot0@gmail.com>

Fix the error message printed when attempting and failing to create the
call path root incorrectly references the call return process.

This change fixes the message to properly reference the failure to
create the call path root.

[PATCH 04/15] perf tools: Support reading from backward ring buffer

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com>

perf_evlist__mmap_read_backward() is introduced for reading backward
ring buffer. Since direction for reading such ring buffer is different
from the direction kernel writing to it, and since user need to fetch
most recent record from it, a perf_evlist__mmap_read_catchup() is
introduced to move the reading pointer to the end of the buffer.

[PATCH 05/15] perf tests: Add test to check backward ring buffer

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com>

This test checks reading from backward ring buffer.

Test result:

  # ~/perf test 'ring buffer'
  45: Test backward reading from ring buffer                   : Ok

The test case is a while loop which calls prctl(PR_SET_NAME) multiple
times.  Each prctl should issue 2 events: one PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE, one
PERF_RECORD_COMM.

The first round creates a relative large ring buffer (256 pages). It can
afford all events. Read from it and check the count of each type of
events.

The second round creates a small ring buffer (1 page) and makes it
overwritable. Check the correctness of the buffer.

[PATCH 07/15] perf symbols: Fix handling of zero-length symbols.

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Chris Phlipot <cphlipot0@gmail.com>

This change introduces a fix to symbols__find, so that it is able to
find symbols of length zero (where start == end).

The current code has the following problem:

- The current implementation of symbols__find is unable to find any symbols
  of length zero.

- The db-export framework explicitly creates zero length symbols at
  locations where no symbol currently exists.

The combination of the two above behaviors results in behavior similar
to the example below.

1. addr_location is created for a sample, but symbol is unable to be
   resolved.

2. db export creates an "unknown" symbol of length zero at that address
   and inserts it into the dso.

3. A new sample comes in at the same address, but symbol__find is unable
   to find the zero length symbol, so it is still unresolved.

4. db export sees the symbol is unresolved, and allocated a duplicate
   symbol, even though it already did this in step 2.

This behavior continues every time an address without symbol information
is seen, which causes a very large number of these symbols to be
allocated.

The effect of this fix can be observed by looking at the contents of an
exported database before/after the fix (generated with
scripts/python/export-to-postgresql.py)

Ex.
BEFORE THE CHANGE:

  example_db=# select count(*) from symbols;
   count
  --------
   900213
  (1 row)

  example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where symbols.name='unknown';
   count
  --------
   897355
  (1 row)

  example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where symbols.name!='unknown';
   count
  -------
    2858
  (1 row)

AFTER THE CHANGE:

  example_db=# select count(*) from symbols;
   count
  -------
   25217
  (1 row)

  example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where name='unknown';
   count
  -------
   22359
  (1 row)

  example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where name!='unknown';
   count
  -------
    2858
  (1 row)

[PATCH 08/15] perf tools: Rewrite strbuf not to die()

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org>

Rewrite strbuf implementation not to use die() nor xrealloc().  Instead
of die(), now most of the API returns error code or 0 if succeeded.

[PATCH 11/15] perf tools: Make alias handler to check return value of strbuf

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org>

Make alias handler and sq_quote_argv to check the return value of strbuf
APIs.

In sq_quote_argv() calls die(), but this fix handles strbuf failure as a
special case and returns to caller, since the caller - handle_alias()
also has to check the return value of other strbuf APIs and those checks
can be merged to one if() statement.

The first ones are container (docker) based builds of tools/perf with and
without libelf support, objtool where it is supported and samples/bpf/, ditto.
Where clang is available, it is also used to build perf with/without libelf.

Several are cross builds, the ones with -x-ARCH, and the android one, and those
may not have all the features built, due to lack of multi-arch devel packages,
available and being used so far on just a few, like
debian:experimental-x-{arm64,mipsel}.

The 'perf test' one will perform a variety of tests exercising
tools/perf/util/, tools/lib/{bpf,traceevent,etc}, as well as run perf
commands with a variety of command line event specifications to then
intercept the sys_perf_event syscall to check that the perf_event_attr
fields are set up as expected, among a variety of other unit tests.

The 'perf test'  also runs shell scripts exercising the tools, checking
if they affect the system in certain ways, like setting up kprobes and
uprobes, request callchains for well known programs and check that they
are the expected ones, see if 'perf trace' beautifies system call
arguments correctly, etc.

Additionally, a new set of tests, script based, runs the tools in a live system,
setting probes in place that then gets used by 'perf trace', with its output
compared against expected results.

Then there is the 'make -C tools/perf build-test' ones, that build tools/perf/
with a variety of feature sets, exercising the build with an incomplete set of
features as well as with a complete one. It is planned to have it run on each
of the containers mentioned above, using some container orchestration
infrastructure. Get in contact if interested in helping having this in place.

[GIT PULL 00/15] perf/core improvements and fixes

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

Hi Ingo,

	Please consider pulling,

- Arnaldo

Test results at the end of this message, as usual.

The following changes since commit ee438ec8f33c5af0d4a4ffb935c5b9272e8c2680:

  Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.14-20170725' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core (2017-07-26 19:07:30 +0200)

are available in the git repository at:

  perf data: Add doc when no conversion support compiled (2017-07-28 16:30:45 -0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements and fixes for 4.14:

New features:

- Add PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN and PERF_RECORD_MMAP[2] to 'perf data' CTF
  conversion, allowing CTF trace visualization tools to show callchains
  and to resolve symbols (Geneviève Bastien)

Improvements:

- Use group read for event groups in 'perf stat', reducing overhead when
  groups are defined in the event specification, i.e. when using {} to
  enclose a list of events, asking them to be read at the same time,
  e.g.: "perf stat -e '{cycles,instructions}'" (Jiri Olsa)

Fixes:

- Do not overwrite perf_sample->weight in 'perf annotate' when
  processing samples, use whatever came from the kernel when
  perf_event_attr.sample_type has PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT set or just handle
  its default value, 0, when that is not set and "weight" is one of the
  sort orders chosen (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- 'perf annotate --show-total-period' fixes:
   - TUI should show period, not nr_samples
   - Set appropriate column width for period/percent
   - Fix the column header to show "Period" when when that is what
     is being asked for
  (Taeung Song, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Use default sort if evlist is empty, fixing pipe mode (David Carrillo-Cisneros)

Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

----------------------------------------------------------------
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo (6):
      perf annotate: Do not overwrite perf_sample->weight

Test results:

The first ones are container (docker) based builds of tools/perf with and
without libelf support, objtool where it is supported and samples/bpf/, ditto.
Where clang is available, it is also used to build perf with/without libelf.

Several are cross builds, the ones with -x-ARCH and the android one, and those
may not have all the features built, due to lack of multi-arch devel packages,
available and being used so far on just a few, like
debian:experimental-x-{arm64,mipsel}.

The 'perf test' one will perform a variety of tests exercising
tools/perf/util/, tools/lib/{bpf,traceevent,etc}, as well as run perf commands
with a variety of command line event specifications to then intercept the
sys_perf_event syscall to check that the perf_event_attr fields are set up as
expected, among a variety of other unit tests.

Then there is the 'make -C tools/perf build-test' ones, that build tools/perf/
with a variety of feature sets, exercising the build with an incomplete set of
features as well as with a complete one. It is planned to have it run on each
of the containers mentioned above, using some container orchestration
infrastructure. Get in contact if interested in helping having this in place.

[GIT PULL 00/15] perf/core improvements and fixes

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

Hi Ingo,

	Please consider pulling,

- Arnaldo

Test results at the end of this message, as usual.

The following changes since commit f2029b1e47b607619d1dd2cb0bbb77f64ec6b7c2:

  perf/x86/intel: Add Kaby Lake support (2017-02-11 21:28:23 +0100)

are available in the git repository at:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux.git tags/perf-core-for-mingo-4.11-20170213

  samples/bpf: Reset global variables (2017-02-13 17:22:53 -0300)

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

New feature:

- Introduce the 'delta-abs' 'perf diff' compute method, that orders the
  histogram entries by the absolute value of the percentage delta for a
  function in two perf.data files, i.e. the functions that changed the
  most (increase or decrease in samples) comes first (Namhyung Kim)

User visible:

- Improve message about tweaking the kernel.perf_event_paranoid setting,
  telling how to make the change permanent by editing /etc/sysctl.conf
  (Ingo Molnar)

Infrastructure:

- Introduce linux/compiler-gcc.h as a counterpart to the kernel's,
  initially containing the definition of __fallthrough, more to
  come (__maybe_unused, etc) (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fixes for problems uncovered by building tools/perf with clang, such
  as always true tests of arrays against NULL and variables that sometimes
  were used without being initialized (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Steven Rostedt)

- Before loading a new ELF, clear global variables set by the
  samples/bpf loader (Mickaël Salaün)

- Ignore already processed ELF sections in the samples/bpf
  loader (Mickaël Salaün)

- Fix compile error in the scripting code with some perl5
  versions (Wang YanQing)

Test results:

The first ones are container (docker) based builds of tools/perf with and
without libelf support, objtool where it is supported and samples/bpf/, ditto.

Several are cross builds, the ones with -x-ARCH, and the android one, and those
may not have all the features built, due to lack of multi-arch devel packages,
available and being used so far on just a few, like
debian:experimental-x-{arm64,mipsel}.

The 'perf test' one will perform a variety of tests exercising
tools/perf/util/, tools/lib/{bpf,traceevent,etc}, as well as run perf commands
with a variety of command line event specifications to then intercept the
sys_perf_event syscall to check that the perf_event_attr fields are set up as
expected, among a variety of other unit tests.

Then there is the 'make -C tools/perf build-test' ones, that build tools/perf/
with a variety of feature sets, exercising the build with an incomplete set of
features as well as with a complete one. It is planned to have it run on each
of the containers mentioned above, using some container orchestration
infrastructure. Get in contact if interested in helping having this in place.

  perf tools: Add missing object file to the python binding linkage list (2016-10-26 19:08:43 -0200)

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

New features:

- Support matching by topic in 'perf list' (Andi Kleen)

User visible:

- Apply cpu color only when there was activity in 'perf sched map' (Namhyung Kim)

- Always show the task's COMM in 'perf sched map -v' (Namhyung Kim)

- Fix hierarchy column counts in the perf hist browser (top, report), avoiding
  showing nothing after pressing the RIGHT key a number of times (Namhyung Kim)

Infrastructure:

- Support cascading options in libsubcmd and use it to share common options in
  'perf sched' subcommands (Namhyung Kim)

- Avoid worker cacheline bouncing in 'perf bench futex' (Davidlohr Bueso)

- Sanitize numeric parameters in 'perf bench futex' (Davidlohr Bueso)

- Update copies of kernel files (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fix scripting (perl, python) setup to avoid leaks (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Add missing object file to the python binding linkage list (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  perf tests: Add is_printable_array test (2016-07-18 19:50:35 -0300)

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

User visible:

- Properly report when a function wildcard produces no matches in 'perf probe'
  (Masami Hiramatsu)

- Balance opening and reading events in 'perf stat', which could cause
  it to get stuck trying to close invalid file descriptors (Mark Rutland)

Infrastructure:

- Copy more headers from the kernel, this time for headers that
  were just including the contents of its kernel counterparts, should
  help resolving the problems with linux-next, where some uapi related
  patches seem to be breaking tools/object/ build.

  Some more combing will be done, but at least it is possible to build
  perf out of tree, via a detached tarball (make help | grep perf)
  without including kernel files in its MANIFEST (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fix smatch found errors that were not causing problems, but are
  mistakes nonetheless (Dan Carpenter)

- Fix string vs byte array resolving in the python script code (Jiri Olsa)

	Ingo, please do not pull this 'perf-core-for-mingo-2' tag, there were
some misunderstandings about the acks for "Move sw clock metrics
printout to stat-shadow" and Jiri and Andi are working that out.

	I'll remove those patches and get a new perf-core-for-mingo-2
tag in place, before continuing today's batch, which possibly will be
available as 'perf-core-for-mingo-3'

	What is in 'perf-core-for-mingo" should be Ok.

Hm, so I pulled it (commit 1765d9b26f84), but with an old perf.data I'm getting 
this crash:

triton:~/tip/tools/perf> perf report
perf: Segmentation fault
-------- backtrace --------
perf[0x52bc0b]
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(+0x352f0)[0x7f51a583c2f0]

perf(_start+0x29)[0x41f2d9]
[0x0]

I also re-tested 1765d9b26f84 and it still crashes.

Bisected it to:

  e1e499aba570 perf tools: Add processor socket info to hist_entry and addr_location

Running on Ubuntu, 1 socket box, 12 CPUs.

I went back to perf/core 8f3e5684d3fb and it doesn't crash anymore - so I unpulled 
your tree for now. (Will send you the perf.data privately.)

Thanks,

	Ingo

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

Hi Ingo,

	Please consider pulling, I guess the changes are minor of affect just some
non-core feature, so it is you call if you prefer to pull it into perf/urgent instead.

Best Regards,

- Arnaldo

The following changes since commit ec4212d88a77eb6caec10777ddd629b702a5ebbd:

  Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent (2014-10-15 11:54:14 +0200)

  perf kvm stat live: Enable events copying (2014-10-15 17:39:03 -0300)

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

User visible:

* Add a visual cue for toggle zeroing of samples in 'perf top' (Taeung Song)

* Fix for double free in 'perf stat' when using some specific invalid
  command line combo (Yasser Shalabi)

Infrastructure:

* Add option to copy events when queuing for sorting across cpu buffers
  and enable it for 'perf kvm stat live', to avoid having events left
  in the queue pointing to the ring buffer be rewritten in high volume
  sessions.  (Alexander Yarygin, improving work done by David Ahern):

* Document sysfs events/ interfaces (Cody P Schafer)

* Add support to new style format of kernel PMU event. (Kan Liang)

* Fix typos in perf/Documentation (Masanari Iida)

* Improve callchains when using libunwind (Namhyung Kim)

  perf trace: Handle missing HUGEPAGE defines (2013-08-30 15:43:28 -0300)

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

. Tidy up sample parsing validation, from Adrian Hunter.

. Make events stream always parsable by adding a new sample_type bit:
  PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER, that when requested will be always aat a fixed
  position in all PERF_RECORD_ records, from Adrian Hunter.

. Add a sample parsing test, from Adrian Hunter.

. Add option to 'perf trace' to analyze events in a file versus live,
  so that one can do:

 [root@zoo ~]# perf record -a -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1
 [ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
 [ perf record: Captured and wrote 25.150 MB perf.data (~1098836 samples) ]
 [root@zoo ~]# perf trace -i perf.data -e futex --duration 1
    17.799 ( 1.020 ms): 7127 futex(uaddr: 0x7fff3f6c6674, op: 393, val: 1, utime: 0x7fff3f6c6470, ua
   113.344 (95.429 ms): 7127 futex(uaddr: 0x7fff3f6c6674, op: 393, val: 1, utime: 0x7fff3f6c6470, uaddr2: 0x7fff3f6c6648, val3: 4294967
   133.778 ( 1.042 ms): 18004 futex(uaddr: 0x7fff3f6c6674, op: 393, val: 1, utime: 0x7fff3f6c6470, uaddr2: 0x7fff3f6c6648, val3: 429496
 [root@zoo ~]#

 From David Ahern.

. Honor target pid / tid options in 'perf trace' when analyzing a file,
  from David Ahern.

. Handle missing HUGEPAGE defines in the mmap beautifier in 'perf trace',
  from David Ahern.

Pulled, thanks a lot Arnaldo!

FYI, i fixed a trivial build failure, in:

 f2328062726d: perf tools: Fix feature-bits rework fallout, remove unused variable

Thanks,

	Ingo
