perf test uprobe_from_different_cu: Skip if there is no gcc

2023-08-11T09:57:48+00:00

[ Upstream commit 98ce8e4a9dcfb448b30a2d7a16190f4a00382377 ] Without gcc, the test will fail. On cleanup, ignore probe removal errors. Otherwise, in case of an error adding the probe, the temporary directory is not removed.

perf test: Update branch sample pattern for cs-etm

2020-11-12T20:55:42+00:00

Since the commit 943b69ac1884 ("perf parse-events: Set exclude_guest=1 for user-space counting"), 'exclude_guest=1' is set for user-space counting; and the branch sample's modifier has been altered, the sample event name has been changed from "branches:u:" to "branches:uH:", which gives out info for "user-space and host counting". But the cs-etm testing's regular expression cannot match the updated branch sample event and leads to test failure. This patch updates the branch sample pattern by using a more flexible expression '.*' to match branch sample's modifiers, so that allows the testing to work as expected.

perf test: Introduce script for Arm CoreSight testing

2020-09-10T12:08:10+00:00

We need a simple method to test Perf with ARM CoreSight drivers, this could be used for smoke testing when new patch is coming for perf or CoreSight drivers, and we also can use the test to confirm if the CoreSight has been enabled successfully on new platforms. This patch introduces the shell script test_arm_coresight.sh which is under the 'pert test' framework. This script provides three testing scenarios: Test scenario 1: traverse all possible paths between source and sink For traversing possible paths, simply to say, the testing rationale is source oriented testing, it traverses every source (now only refers to ETM device) and test its all possible sinks. To search the complete paths from one specific source to its sinks, this patch relies on the sysfs '/sys/bus/coresight/devices/devX/out:Y' for depth-first search (DFS) for iteration connected device nodes, if the output device is detected as a sink device (the script will exclude TPIU device which can not be supported for perf PMU), then it will test trace data recording and decoding for it. The script runs three output testings for every trace data: - Test branch samples dumping with 'perf script' command; - Test branch samples reporting with 'perf report' command; - Use option '--itrace=i1000i' to insert synthesized instructions events and the script will check if perf can output the percentage value successfully based on the instruction samples. Test scenario 2: system-wide test For system-wide testing, it passes option '-a' to perf tool to enable tracing on all CPUs, so it's hard to say which program will be traced. But perf tool itself contributes much overload in this case, so it will parse trace data and check if process 'perf' can be detected or not. Test scenario 3: snapshot mode test. For snapshot mode testing, it uses 'dd' command to launch a long running program, so this can give chance to send signal -USR2; it will check the captured trace data contains 'dd' related thread info or not. If any test fails, it will report failure and directly exit with error. This test will be only applied on a platform with PMU event 'cs_etm//', otherwise will skip the testing. Below is detailed usage for it: # cd $linux/tools/perf -> This is important so can use shell script # perf test list [...] 70: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping 71: Check Arm CoreSight trace data recording and synthesized samples 72: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname 73: Zstd perf.data compression/decompression 74: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames 75: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames # perf test 71 71: Check Arm CoreSight trace data recording and branch samples: Ok Signed-off-by: Leo Yan Reviewed-by: Mathieu Poirier Reviewed-by: Suzuki Poulouse Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Mathieu Poirier Cc: Mike Leach Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200907130154.9601-1-leo.yan@linaro.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf test: Allow multiple probes in record+script_probe_vfs_getname.sh

2020-08-13T12:34:26+00:00

Sometimes when adding a kprobe by perf, it results in multiple probe points, such as the following: # ./perf probe -l probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:73@fs/namei.c with pathname) probe:vfs_getname_1 (on getname_flags:73@fs/namei.c with pathname) probe:vfs_getname_2 (on getname_flags:73@fs/namei.c with pathname) # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events p:probe/vfs_getname _text+5501804 pathname=+0(+0(%gpr31)):string p:probe/vfs_getname_1 _text+5505388 pathname=+0(+0(%gpr31)):string p:probe/vfs_getname_2 _text+5508396 pathname=+0(+0(%gpr31)):string In this test, we need to record all of them and expect any of them in the perf-script output, since it's not clear which one will be used for the desired syscall: # perf stat -e probe:vfs_getname\* -- touch /tmp/nic Performance counter stats for 'touch /tmp/nic': 31 probe:vfs_getname_2 0 probe:vfs_getname_1 1 probe:vfs_getname 0.001421826 seconds time elapsed 0.001506000 seconds user 0.000000000 seconds sys If the test relies only on probe:vfs_getname, it might easily miss the relevant data.

perf tests: Fix test 68 zstd compression for s390

Commit 5aa98879efe7 ("s390/cpum_sf: prohibit callchain data collection") prohibits call graph sampling for hardware events on s390. The information recorded is out of context and does not match.

perf test: Fix test trace+probe_vfs_getname.sh on s390

2020-02-18T13:13:28+00:00

This test places a kprobe to function getname_flags() in the kernel which has the following prototype: struct filename *getname_flags(const char __user *filename, int flags, int *empty) The 'filename' argument points to a filename located in user space memory. Looking at commit 88903c464321c ("tracing/probe: Add ustring type for user-space string") the kprobe should indicate that user space memory is accessed. Output before: [root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf test 66 67 66: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : FAILED! 67: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: FAILED!

On some arches (ppc64 in this case?) user address space is partially or completely the same as kernel address space. (Yes, they switch the world when running into the kernel) In this case, we need to use different data access functions for each space. That is why I introduced the "ustring" type for kprobe events. As far as I can see, Thomas's patch is sane. Thomas, could you show us your result on your test environment? Comments from Thomas Richter: Test results for s/390 included above.
