libperf event: Ensure tracing data is multiple of 8 sized

2025-10-29T13:01:08+00:00

[ Upstream commit b39c915a4f365cce6bdc0e538ed95d31823aea8f ] Perf's synthetic-events.c will ensure 8-byte alignment of tracing data, writing it after a perf_record_header_tracing_data event. Add padding to struct perf_record_header_tracing_data to make it 16-byte rather than 12-byte sized.

libperf evlist: Avoid out-of-bounds access

2024-04-13T10:59:48+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1947b92464c3268381604bbe2ac977a3fd78192f ] Parallel testing appears to show a race between allocating and setting evsel ids. As there is a bounds check on the xyarray it yields a segv like: ``` AddressSanitizer:DEADLYSIGNAL ================================================================= ==484408==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x000000000010 ==484408==The signal is caused by a WRITE memory access. ==484408==Hint: address points to the zero page. #0 0x55cef5d4eff4 in perf_evlist__id_hash tools/lib/perf/evlist.c:256 #1 0x55cef5d4f132 in perf_evlist__id_add tools/lib/perf/evlist.c:274 #2 0x55cef5d4f545 in perf_evlist__id_add_fd tools/lib/perf/evlist.c:315 #3 0x55cef5a1923f in store_evsel_ids util/evsel.c:3130 #4 0x55cef5a19400 in evsel__store_ids util/evsel.c:3147 #5 0x55cef5888204 in __run_perf_stat tools/perf/builtin-stat.c:832 #6 0x55cef5888c06 in run_perf_stat tools/perf/builtin-stat.c:960 #7 0x55cef58932db in cmd_stat tools/perf/builtin-stat.c:2878 ... ``` Avoid this crash by early exiting the perf_evlist__id_add_fd and perf_evlist__id_add is the access is out-of-bounds.

perf tools: Fix segfault accessing sample_id xyarray

2022-04-27T11:53:46+00:00

commit a668cc07f990d2ed19424d5c1a529521a9d1cee1 upstream. perf_evsel::sample_id is an xyarray which can cause a segfault when accessed beyond its size. e.g. # perf record -e intel_pt// -C 1 sleep 1 Segmentation fault (core dumped) # That is happening because a dummy event is opened to capture text poke events accross all CPUs, however the mmap logic is allocating according to the number of user_requested_cpus. In general, perf sometimes uses the evsel cpus to open events, and sometimes the evlist user_requested_cpus. However, it is not necessary to determine which case is which because the opened event file descriptors are also in an xyarray, the size of whch can be used to correctly allocate the size of the sample_id xyarray, because there is one ID per file descriptor. Note, in the affected code path, perf_evsel fd array is subsequently used to get the file descriptor for the mmap, so it makes sense for the xyarrays to be the same size there.

libperf tests: Fix test_stat_cpu

2021-10-27T07:56:55+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3ff6d64e68abc231955d216236615918797614ae ] The `cpu` argument of perf_evsel__read() must specify the cpu index. perf_cpu_map__for_each_cpu() is for iterating the cpu number (not index) and is thus not appropriate for use with perf_evsel__read(). So, if there is an offline CPU, the cpu number specified in the argument may point out of range because the cpu number and the cpu index are different. Fix test_stat_cpu().

perf jit: Let convert_timestamp() to be backwards-compatible

2021-05-14T07:50:44+00:00

[ Upstream commit aa616f5a8a2d22a179d5502ebd85045af66fa656 ] Commit d110162cafc80dad ("perf tsc: Support cap_user_time_short for event TIME_CONV") supports the extended parameters for event TIME_CONV, but it broke the backwards compatibility, so any perf data file with old event format fails to convert timestamp. This patch introduces a helper event_contains() to check if an event contains a specific member or not. For the backwards-compatibility, if the event size confirms the extended parameters are supported in the event TIME_CONV, then copies these parameters. Committer notes: To make this compiler backwards compatible add this patch: - struct perf_tsc_conversion tc = { 0 }; + struct perf_tsc_conversion tc = { .time_shift = 0, }; Fixes: d110162cafc8 ("perf tsc: Support cap_user_time_short for event TIME_CONV") Signed-off-by: Leo Yan Acked-by: Adrian Hunter Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Gustavo A.

perf tools: Change fields type in perf_record_time_conv

[ Upstream commit e1d380ea8b00db4bb14d1f513000d4b62aa9d3f0 ] C standard claims "An object declared as type _Bool is large enough to store the values 0 and 1", bool type size can be 1 byte or larger than 1 byte. Thus it's uncertian for bool type size with different compilers. This patch changes the bool type in structure perf_record_time_conv to __u8 type, and pads extra bytes for 8-byte alignment; this can give reliable structure size.

perf evlist: Fix id index for heterogeneous systems

2021-01-27T10:55:11+00:00

[ Upstream commit fc705fecf3a0c9128933cc6db59159c050aaca33 ] perf_evlist__set_sid_idx() updates perf_sample_id with the evlist map index, CPU number and TID. It is passed indexes to the evsel's cpu and thread maps, but references the evlist's maps instead. That results in using incorrect CPU numbers on heterogeneous systems. Fix it by using evsel maps. The id index (PERF_RECORD_ID_INDEX) is used by AUX area tracing when in sampling mode. Having an incorrect CPU number causes the trace data to be attributed to the wrong CPU, and can result in decoder errors because the trace data is then associated with the wrong process. Committer notes: Keep the class prefix convention in the function name, switching from perf_evlist__set_sid_idx() to perf_evsel__set_sid_idx().

perf tools: Add size to 'struct perf_record_header_build_id'
