commit aba8d056078e47350d85b06a9cabd5afcc4b72ea upstream.
In addition to /etc/perfconfig and $HOME/.perfconfig, perf looks for
configuration in the file ./config, imitating git which looks at
$GIT_DIR/config. If ./config is not a perf configuration file, it
fails, or worse, treats it as a configuration file and changes behavior
in some unexpected way.
"config" is not an unusual name for a file to be lying around and perf
does not have a private directory dedicated for its own use, so let's
just stop looking for configuration in the cwd. Callers needing
context-sensitive configuration can use the PERF_CONFIG environment
variable.

commit d11c7addfe0fa501cb54c824c0fac3481d527433 upstream.
For Fedora, I want to force perf to link against libiberty.a for
cplus_demangle, rather than libbfd.a for bfd_demangle due to licensing insanity
on binutils. (libiberty is LGPL2, libbfd is GPL3.)
If we just rely on autodetection, we'll end up with libbfd linked against us,
since they're both in binutils-static in the buildroot.

commit 5225c45899e872383ca39f5533d28ec63c54b39e upstream.
Each histogram entry has a callchain root that stores the
callchain samples. However we forgot to initialize the
tracking of children hits of these roots, which then got
random values on their creation.
The root children hits is multiplied by the minimum percentage
of hits provided by the user, and the result becomes the minimum
hits expected from children branches. If the random value due
to the uninitialization is big enough, then this minimum number
of hits can be huge and eventually filter every children branches.
The end result was invisible callchains. All we need to
fix this is to initialize the children hits of the root.

commit 97aa1052739c6a06cb6b0467dbf410613d20bc97 upstream.
Initialize the callchain radix tree root correctly.
When we walk through the parents, we must stop after the root, but
since it wasn't well initialized, its parent pointer was random.
Also the number of hits was random because uninitialized, hence it
was part of the callchain while the root doesn't contain anything.
This fixes segfaults and percentages followed by empty callchains
while running:

commit b0a9ab62ab96e258a0ddd81d7fe2719c3db36006 upstream.
Before this patch this message would very briefly appear on the
screen and then the screen would get updates only on the top,
for number of interrupts received, etc, but no annotation would
be performed:
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf top -s n_tty_write > /tmp/bla
objdump: '[kernel.kallsyms]': No such file
Now this is what the user gets:
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf top -s n_tty_write
Can't annotate n_tty_write: No vmlinux file was found in the
path: [0] vmlinux
[1] /boot/vmlinux
[2] /boot/vmlinux-2.6.33-rc5

[4] /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/2.6.33-rc5/vmlinux
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#
This bug was introduced when we added automatic search for
vmlinux, before that time the user had to specify a vmlinux
file.

OPT_INCR()
commit c05556421742eb47f80301767653a4bcb19de9de upstream.
Parsing an option from the command line with OPT_BOOLEAN on a
bool data type would not work on a big-endian machine due to the
manner in which the boolean was being cast into an int and
incremented. For example, running 'perf probe --list' on a
PowerPC machine would fail to properly set the list_events bool
and would therefore print out the usage information and
terminate.
This patch makes OPT_BOOLEAN work as expected with a bool
datatype. For cases where the original OPT_BOOLEAN was
intentionally being used to increment an int each time it was
passed in on the command line, this patch introduces OPT_INCR
with the old behaviour of OPT_BOOLEAN (the verbose variable is
currently the only such example of this).
I have reviewed every use of OPT_BOOLEAN to verify that a true
C99 bool was passed. Where integers were used, I verified that
they were only being used for boolean logic and changed them to
bools to ensure that they would not be mistakenly used as ints.
The major exception was the verbose variable which now uses
OPT_INCR instead of OPT_BOOLEAN.

The raw_field_ptr() helper, used to retrieve the address of a field
inside a trace event, treats every strings as if they were dynamic
ie: having a secondary level of indirection to retrieve their
contents.
FIELD_IS_STRING doesn't mean FIELD_IS_DYNAMIC, we only need to
compute the secondary dereference for the latter case.
This fixes perf sched segfaults, bad cmdline report and may be
some other bugs.

Commit 5a0e3ad ("include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h
includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion
from percpu.h") added a '#include <linux/slab.h>' to
tools/perf/builtin-kmem.h because: that tool has lines like
this:
if (!strcmp(event->name, "kmalloc") ||
!strcmp(event->name, "kmem_cache_alloc")) {
process_alloc_event(data, event, cpu, timestamp, thread, 0);
return;
}
So, using the script regex:
>>> import re
>>> s = re.compile(r'^(|.*[^a-zA-Z0-9_])_*(slab_is_available|kmem_cache_|k[mzc]alloc|krealloc|kz?free|ksize|__getname|putname)')
>>> l = ' !strcmp(event->name, "kmem_cache_alloc")) {'
>>> s.search(l)
<_sre.SRE_Match object at 0xb77b1ad0>
>>>
Remove that file that is not available in the tools/perf include
path and thus builtin-kmem.c couldn't be compiled.

This is a fix to the signed/unsigned field handling in the
Python scripting engine, based on a patch from Roel Kluin.
Basically, Python wants to use a PyInt (which is internally a
long) if it can i.e. if the value will fit into that type. If
not, it stores it into a PyLong, which isn't actually a long,
but an arbitrary-precision integer variable.
The code below is similar to to what Python does internally, and
it seems to work as expected on the x86 and x86_64 sytems I
tested it on.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

At present, the perf subcommands that do system-wide monitoring
(perf stat, perf record and perf top) don't work properly unless
the online cpus are numbered 0, 1, ..., N-1. These tools ask
for the number of online cpus with sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN)
and then try to create events for cpus 0, 1, ..., N-1.
This creates problems for systems where the online cpus are
numbered sparsely. For example, a POWER6 system in
single-threaded mode (i.e. only running 1 hardware thread per
core) will have only even-numbered cpus online.
This fixes the problem by reading the /sys/devices/system/cpu/online
file to find out which cpus are online. The code that does that is in
tools/perf/util/cpumap.[ch], and consists of a read_cpu_map()
function that sets up a cpumap[] array and returns the number of
online cpus. If /sys/devices/system/cpu/online can't be read or
can't be parsed successfully, it falls back to using sysconf to
ask how many cpus are online and sets up an identity map in cpumap[].
The perf record, perf stat and perf top code then calls
read_cpu_map() in the system-wide monitoring case (instead of
sysconf) and uses cpumap[] to get the cpu numbers to pass to
perf_event_open.

If -vv is used just the map table will be printed, -vvv will
print the symbol table too, with it we can see that we have a
bug where some samples are not being resolved to a map when we
get them in the perf.data stream, but after we have it all
processed, we can find the right map, some reordering probably
is happening.
Upcoming patches will provide ways to ask for most PERF_SAMPLE_
conditional samples to be taken for !PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE events
too, then we'll be able to ask for PERF_SAMPLE_TIME and
PERF_SAMPLE_CPU to help diagnose this.

Perf report does not handle multiple events being reported, even
though perf record stores them properly on disk. This patch
addresses that issue by adding the logic to perf report to use
the event stream id that is saved by record and the new data
structures to seperate the event streams and report them
individually.

Currently perf record does not write the ID or the to disk for
events. This doesn't allow report to tell if an event stream
contains one or more types of events. This patch adds this

The Thumb-2 instruction set does not provide an encoding
for sub pc, r0, #95 as present in the rmb() definition used
by perf. This results in compilation failure when using a
compiler targetting an instruction set other than ARM.
This patch redefines rmb() for ARM by casting the address
of the kuser helper to a function pointer, therefore getting
the compiler to take care of making the call.
Patch taken against tip/master.

More work is needed to support archiving symtabs for binaries
without a build-id, perhaps creating a perf.data UUID + adding
build-ids for the binaries copied into the cache and then have
this perf.data session UUID be a directory with symlinks to the
by now calculated build-id of the files inside it.
Or just do an extra pass and insert the calculated build-ids in
the perf.data header.

We need to deal with time ordered events to build a correct
state machine of lock events. This is why we multiplex the lock
events buffers. But the ordering is done from the kernel, on
the tracing fast path, leading to high contention between cpus.
Without multiplexing, the events appears in a weak order.
If we have four events, each split per cpu, perf record will
read the events buffers in the following order:
[ CPU0 ev0, CPU0 ev1, CPU0 ev3, CPU0 ev4, CPU1 ev0, CPU1 ev0....]
To handle a post processing reordering, we could just read and sort
the whole in memory, but it just doesn't scale with high amounts
of events: lock events can fill huge amounts in few times.
Basically we need to sort in memory and find a "grace period"
point when we know that a given slice of previously sorted events
can be committed for post-processing, so that we can unload the
memory usage step by step and keep a scalable sorting list.
There is no strong rules about how to define such "grace period".
What does this patch is:
We define a FLUSH_PERIOD value that defines a grace period in
seconds.
We want to have a slice of events covering 2 * FLUSH_PERIOD in our
sorted list.
If FLUSH_PERIOD is big enough, it ensures every events that occured
in the first half of the timeslice have all been buffered and there
are none remaining and there won't be further to put inside this
first timeslice. Then once we reach the 2 * FLUSH_PERIOD
timeslice, we flush the first half to be gentle with the memory
(the second half can still get new events in the middle, so wait
another period to flush it)
FLUSH_PERIOD is defined to 5 seconds. Say the first event started on
time t0. We can safely assume that at the time we are processing
events of t0 + 10 seconds, ther won't be anymore events to read
from perf.data that occured between t0 and t0 + 5 seconds. Hence
we can safely flush the first half.
To point out funky bugs, we have a guardian that checks a new event
timestamp is not below the last event's timestamp flushed and that
displays a warning in this case.

I've forgot to add 'perf lock' line to command-list.txt,
so users of perf could not find perf lock when they type 'perf'.
Fixing command-list.txt requires document
(tools/perf/Documentation/perf-lock.txt).
But perf lock is too much "under construction" to write a
stable document, so this is something like pseudo document for now.
And I wrote description of perf lock at help section of
CONFIG_LOCK_STAT, this will navigate users of lock trace events.

Even though we don't register the counters until the child is right about
to exec(), we're still going to get at least a few events while the
fork()'d child is still executing 'perf' and in particular we're going to
get the MMAP events.
We can't distinguish the ones in the newly executed process because the
PID will be the same.
One way to solve this would be to have a PERF_RECORD_EXEC event, and when
this is seen 'perf' can flush it's map cache. We can't use
PERF_RECORD_COMM since that's generated by other things, not just exec().
Actually, thinking about it some more, using PERF_RECORD_COMM might be a
good enough approximation.

Add lazy line matching support for specifying new probes.
This also changes the syntax of perf probe a bit. Now
perf probe accepts one of below probe event definitions.
1) Define event based on function name
[EVENT=]FUNC[@SRC][:RLN|+OFF|%return|;PTN] [ARG ...]
2) Define event based on source file with line number
[EVENT=]SRC:ALN [ARG ...]
3) Define event based on source file with lazy pattern
[EVENT=]SRC;PTN [ARG ...]
- New lazy matching pattern(PTN) follows ';' (semicolon). And it
must be put the end of the definition.
- So, @SRC is no longer the part which must be put at the end
of the definition.
Note that ';' (semicolon) can be interpreted as the end of
a command by the shell. This means that you need to quote it.
(anyway you will need to quote the lazy pattern itself too,
because it may contains other sensitive characters, like
'[',']' etc.).
Lazy matching
-------------
The lazy line matching is similar to glob matching except
ignoring spaces in both of pattern and target.
e.g.
'a=*' can matches 'a=b', 'a = b', 'a == b' and so on.
This provides some sort of flexibility and robustness to
probe point definitions against minor code changes.
(for example, actual 10th line of schedule() can be changed
easily by modifying schedule(), but the same line matching
'rq=cpu_rq*' may still exist.)
Changes in v3:
- Cast Dwarf_Addr to uintmax_t for printf-formats.
Changes in v2:
- Cast Dwarf_Addr to unsigned long long for printf-formats.

Show 2 more lines after the last probe-able line.
This will clearly show the last closed-brace of
inline functions.

Check (inlined) function address range strictly for
improving output of probe-able lines of inline functions.
Without this change, perf probe --line <function> sometimes
showed other inline function bodies too, because it didn't
filter out inlined functions.
