* perf probe: Clear probe_trace_event when add_probe_trace_event() failsWang Nan2015-11-131-6/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When probing with a glob, errors in add_probe_trace_event() won't be passed to debuginfo__find_trace_events() because it would be modified by probe_point_search_cb(). It causes a segfault if perf fails to find an argument for a probe point matched by the glob.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix memory leaking on the debuginfo__find_trace_events() failure path which frees an array of probe_trace_events but doesn't clears all the allocated sub-structures and strings.

| | | | | | | | | | | | 'perf buildid-list' processes events to determine hits (i.e. with-hits option). That may not work if events are not sorted in order. i.e. MMAP events must be processed before the samples that depend on them so that sample processing can 'hit' the DSO to which the MMAP refers.

* perf symbols: Fix dso lookup by long name and missing buildidsAdrian Hunter2015-11-133-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 4598a0a6d22f ("perf symbols: Improve DSO long names lookup speed with rbtree") Added a tree to lookup dsos by long name. That tree gets corrupted whenever a dso long name is changed because the tree is not updated. One effect of that is buildid-list does not work with the 'with-hits' option because dso lookup fails and results in two structs for the same dso. The first has the buildid but no hits, the second has hits but no buildid. e.g. Before: $ tools/perf/perf record ls arch certs CREDITS Documentation firmware include ipc Kconfig lib Makefile net REPORTING-BUGS scripts sound usr block COPYING crypto drivers fs init Kbuild kernel MAINTAINERS mm README samples security tools virt [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.012 MB perf.data (11 samples) ] $ tools/perf/perf buildid-list 574da826c66538a8d9060d393a8866289bd06005 [kernel.kallsyms] 30c94dc66a1fe95180c3d68d2b89e576d5ae213c /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so $ tools/perf/perf buildid-list -H 574da826c66538a8d9060d393a8866289bd06005 [kernel.kallsyms] 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so After: $ tools/perf/perf buildid-list -H 574da826c66538a8d9060d393a8866289bd06005 [kernel.kallsyms] 30c94dc66a1fe95180c3d68d2b89e576d5ae213c /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so The fix is to record the root of the tree on the dso so that dso__set_long_name() can update the tree when the long name changes.

* perf symbols: Rebuild rbtree when adjusting symbols for kcoreAdrian Hunter2015-11-121-16/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Normally symbols are read from the DSO and adjusted, if need be, so that the symbol start matches the file offset in the DSO file (we want the file offset because that is what we know from MMAP events). That is done by dso__load_sym() which inserts the symbols *after* adjusting them. In the case of kcore, the symbols have been read from kallsyms and the symbol start is the memory address. The symbols have to be adjusted to match the kcore file offsets. dso__split_kallsyms_for_kcore() does that, but now the adjustment is being done *after* the symbols have been inserted. It appears dso__split_kallsyms_for_kcore() was assuming that changing the symbol start would not change the order in the rbtree - which is, of course, not guaranteed.

* perf probe: Verify parameters in two functionsWang Nan2015-11-111-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On kernel with only one out of CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS and CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS enabled, 'perf probe -d' causes a segfault because perf_del_probe_events() calls probe_file__get_events() with a negative fd. This patch fixes it by adding parameter validation at the entry of probe_file__get_events() and probe_file__get_rawlist(). Since they are both non-static public functions (in .h file), parameter verifying is required. v1 -> v2: Verify fd at the head of probe_file__get_rawlist() instead of checking at call site (suggested by Masami and Arnaldo at [1,2]).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds BPF testcase for testing BPF event filtering.

Dynamically embeddeding it into 'llvm-src-base.c'. The newly introduced BPF program attaches a BPF program to 'sys_epoll_pwait()'. perf itself never use that syscall, so further test can verify their result with it. The program would generate 1 sample in every 2 calls of epoll_pwait() system call. Since the resulting BPF object is useful per se for further tests, test_llvm__fetch_bpf_obj() is introduced for creating BPF objects from source. The LLVM test was rewritten to use it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A series of bpf loader related error codes were introduced to help error reporting. Functions were improved to return these new error codes. Functions which return pointers were adjusted to encode error codes into return value using the ERR_PTR() interface. bpf_loader_strerror() was improved to convert these error messages to strings. It checks the error codes and calls libbpf_strerror() and strerror_r() accordingly, so caller don't need to consider checking the range of the error code. In bpf__strerror_load(), print kernel version of running kernel and the object's 'version' section to notify user how to fix his/her program. v1 -> v2: Use macro for error code. Fetch error message based on array index, eliminate for-loop. Print version strings.

Functions are updated to pass correct the error number through the CHECK_ERR() macro. All users of bpf_object__open{_buffer}() and bpf_program__title() in perf are modified accordingly. In addition, due to the error codes changing, bpf__strerror_load() is also modified to use them. bpf__strerror_head() is also changed accordingly so it can parse libbpf errors. bpf_loader_strerror() is introduced for that purpose, and will be improved by the following patch. load_program() is improved not to dump log buffer if it is empty. log buffer is also used to deduce whether the error was caused by an invalid program or other problem. v1 -> v2: - Using macro for error code. - Fetch error message based on array index, eliminate for-loop. - Use log buffer to detect the reason of failure. 3 new error code are introduced to replace LIBBPF_ERRNO__LOAD.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the browser fails to annotate it is difficult for users to find out what went wrong. Add some errors for objdump failures that are displayed in the UI. Note it would be even better to handle these errors smarter, like falling back to the binary when the debug info is somehow corrupted. But for now just giving a better error is an improvement. Committer note: This works for --stdio, where errors just scroll by the screen: # perf annotate --stdio intel_idle Failure running objdump --start-address=0xffffffff81418290 --stop-address=0xffffffff814183ae -l -d --no-show-raw -S -C /root/.debug/.build-id/28/2777c262e6b3c0451375163c9a81c893218ab1 2>/dev/null|grep -v /root/.debug/.build-id/28/2777c262e6b3c0451375163c9a81c893218ab1|expand Percent | Source code & Disassembly of vmlinux for cycles:pp ------------------------------------------------------------------ And with that one can use that command line to try to find out more about what happened instead of getting a blank screen, an improvement. We need tho to improve this further to get it to work with other UIs, like --tui and --gtk, where it continues showing a blank screen, no messages, as the pr_err() used is enough just for --stdio.

* perf tools: Compile scriptlets to BPF objects when passing '.c' to --eventWang Nan2015-10-297-9/+83
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch provides infrastructure for passing source files to --event directly using: # perf record --event bpf-file.c command This patch does following works: 1) Allow passing '.c' file to '--event'. parse_events_load_bpf() is expanded to allow caller tell it whether the passed file is source file or object. 2) llvm__compile_bpf() is called to compile the '.c' file, the result is saved into memory. Use bpf_object__open_buffer() to load the in-memory object. Introduces a bpf-script-example.c so we can manually test it: # perf record --clang-opt "-DLINUX_VERSION_CODE=0x40200" --event ./bpf-script-example.c sleep 1 Note that '--clang-opt' must put before '--event'. Futher patches will merge it into a testcase so can be tested automatically.

* perf bpf: Attach eBPF filter to perf eventWang Nan2015-10-293-0/+24

After applying this patch, users are allowed to use BPF filter like: # perf record --event ./hello_world.o ls A bpf_fd field is appended to 'struct evsel', and setup during the callback function add_bpf_event() for each 'probe_trace_event'. PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF ioctl is used to attach eBPF program to a newly created perf event. The file descriptor of the eBPF program is passed to perf record using previous patches, and stored into evsel->bpf_fd. It is possible that different perf event are created for one kprobe events for different CPUs. In this case, when trying to call the ioctl, EEXIST will be return. This patch doesn't treat it as an error. Committer note: The bpf proggie used so far: __attribute__((section("fork=_do_fork"), used)) int fork(void *ctx) { return 0; } char _license[] __attribute__((section("license"), used)) = "GPL"; int _version __attribute__((section("version"), used)) = 0x40300; failed to produce any samples, even with forks happening and it being running in system wide mode. That is because now the filter is being associated, and the code above always returns zero, meaning that all forks will be probed but filtered away ;-/ Change it to 'return 1;' instead and after that: # trace --no-syscalls --event /tmp/foo.o 0.000 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) 2.333 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) 3.725 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) 4.550 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) ^C# And it works with all tools, including 'perf trace'.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch improves perf script by enabling printing of the branch stack via the 'brstack' and 'brstacksym' arguments to the field selection option -F. The option is off by default and operates only if the perf.data file has branch stack content. The branches are printed in to/from pairs. The most recent branch is printed first.

The brstacksym prints FROM/TO addresses in symbolic form wherever possible. $ perf script -F ip,brstack 5d3000 0x401aa0/0x5d2000/M/-/-/-/0 ... $ perf script -F ip,brstacksym 4011e0 noploop+0x0/noploop+0x0/P/-/-/0 The notation F/T/M/X/A/C describes the attributes of the branch.

The previously introduced dummy event is now removed. After this patch, the following command: # perf record --event filter.o ls Can trace on each of the probes defined in filter.o. The core of this patch is bpf__foreach_tev(), which calls a callback function for each 'struct probe_trace_event' event for a bpf program with each associated file descriptors. The add_bpf_event() callback creates evsels by calling parse_events_add_tracepoint(). Since bpf-loader.c will not be built if libbpf is turned off, an empty bpf__foreach_tev() is defined in bpf-loader.h to avoid build errors.

This is all transient, as soon as the 'perf record' session ends, these probes will go away.

It parses the section names in the program and creates corresponding 'struct perf_probe_event' structures. The parse_perf_probe_command() function is used to do the main parsing work. The resuling 'struct perf_probe_event' is stored into program private data for further using. By utilizing the new probing API, this patch creates probe points during event parsing. To ensure probe points be removed correctly, register an atexit hook so even perf quit through exit() bpf__clear() is still called, so probing points are cleared. Note that bpf_clear() should be registered before bpf__probe() is called, so failure of bpf__probe() can still trigger bpf__clear() to remove probe points which are already probed. strerror style error reporting scaffold is created by this patch. bpf__strerror_probe() is the first error reporting function in bpf-loader.c.

It calls parse_events_load_bpf() to load that file, which uses bpf__prepare_load() and finally calls bpf_object__open() for the object files. After applying this patch, commands like: # perf record --event foo.o sleep become possible. However, at this point it is unable to link any useful things onto the evsel list because the creating of probe points and BPF program attaching have not been implemented. Before real events are possible to be extracted, to avoid perf report error because of empty evsel list, this patch link a dummy evsel. The dummy event related code will be removed when probing and extracting code is ready.

* perf tools: Make perf depend on libbpfWang Nan2015-10-284-4/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By adding libbpf into perf's Makefile, this patch enables perf to build libbpf if libelf is found and neither NO_LIBELF nor NO_LIBBPF is set. The newly introduced code is similar to how libapi and libtraceevent are wired into Makefile.perf. MANIFEST is also updated for 'make perf-*-src-pkg'. Append make_no_libbpf to tools/perf/tests/make. The 'bpf' feature check is appended into default FEATURE_TESTS and FEATURE_DISPLAY, so perf will check the API version of bpf in /path/to/kernel/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h. Which should not fail except when we are trying to port this code to an old kernel. Error messages are also updated to notify users about the lack of BPF support in 'perf record' if libelf is missing or the BPF API check failed. tools/lib/bpf is added to TAG_FOLDERS to allow us to navigate libbpf files when working on perf using tools/perf/tags.

* perf symbols: Fix endless loop in dso__split_kallsyms_for_kcoreJiri Olsa2015-10-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we split symbols based on the map comparison, but symbols are stored within dso objects and maps could point into same dso objects (kernel maps). Hence we could end up changing rbtree we are currently iterating and mess it up. It's easily reproduced on s390x by running: $ perf record -a -- sleep 3 $ perf buildid-list -i perf.data --with-hits The fix is to compare dso objects instead.

* perf tools: Enable pre-event inherit setting by config termsWang Nan2015-10-285-0/+29

So user can control inherit bit for each event separately. In following example, a.out fork()s in main then do some complex CPU intensive computations in both of its children. Basic result with and without inherit: # perf record -e cycles -e instructions ./a.out [ perf record: Woken up 9 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.205 MB perf.data (47920 samples) ] # perf report --stdio # ... # Samples: 23K of event 'cycles' # Event count (approx.): 23641752891 ... # Samples: 24K of event 'instructions' # Event count (approx.): 30428312415 # perf record -i -e cycles -e instructions ./a.out [ perf record: Woken up 5 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.111 MB perf.data (24019 samples) ] ... #

* perf symbols: we can now read separate debug-info files based on a build IDDima Kogan2015-10-281-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recent GDB (at least on a vanilla Debian box) looks for debug information in /usr/lib/debug/.build-id/nn/nnnnnnn where nn/nnnnnn is the build-id of the stripped ELF binary. This is documented here: https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Separate-Debug-Files.html This was not working in perf because we didn't read the build id until AFTER we searched for the separate debug information file. This patch reads the build ID and THEN does the search.
