perf test: Add landlock workload

2024-07-31T19:12:46+00:00

We'll use it to add a regression test for the BTF augmentation of enum arguments for tracepoints in 'perf trace': root@x1:~# perf trace -e landlock_add_rule perf test -w landlock 0.000 ( 0.009 ms): perf/747160 landlock_add_rule(ruleset_fd: 11, rule_type: LANDLOCK_RULE_PATH_BENEATH, rule_attr: 0x7ffd8e258594, flags: 45) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) 0.011 ( 0.002 ms): perf/747160 landlock_add_rule(ruleset_fd: 11, rule_type: LANDLOCK_RULE_NET_PORT, rule_attr: 0x7ffd8e2585a0, flags: 45) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) root@x1:~# Committer notes: It was agreed on the discussion (see Link below) to shorten then name of the workload from 'landlock_add_rule' to 'landlock', and I moved it to a separate patch. Also, to address a build failure from Namhyung, I stopped loading linux/landlock.h and instead added the used defines, enums and types to make this build in older systems. All we want is to emit the syscall and intercept it.

perf test: Use TEST_FAIL in the TEST_ASSERT macros instead of -1

perf test: Add option to change objdump binary

2023-11-09T16:49:33+00:00

All of the other Perf subcommands that use objdump have an option to specify the binary, so add the same option to 'perf test'. This is useful if you have built the kernel with a different toolchain to the system one, where the system objdump may fail to disassemble vmlinux. Now this can be fixed with something like this: $ perf test --objdump llvm-objdump "object code reading" Reviewed-by: Ian Rogers Signed-off-by: James Clark Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Athira Jajeev Cc: Fangrui Song Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Kajol Jain Cc: Kan Liang Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Nathan Chancellor Cc: Nick Desaulniers Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Ravi Bangoria Cc: Tom Rix Cc: Yang Jihong Cc: llvm@lists.linux.dev Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231106151051.129440-2-james.clark@arm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf parse-events: Remove BPF event support

2023-08-15T19:41:48+00:00

New features like the BPF --filter support in perf record have made the BPF event functionality somewhat redundant. As shown by commit fcb027c1a4f6 ("perf tools: Revert enable indices setting syntax for BPF map") and commit 14e4b9f4289a ("perf trace: Raw augmented syscalls fix libbpf 1.0+ compatibility") the BPF event support hasn't been well maintained and it adds considerable complexity in areas like event parsing, not least as '/' is a separator for event modifiers as well as in paths. This patch removes support in the event parser for BPF events and then the associated functions are removed. This leads to the removal of whole source files like bpf-loader.c. Removing support means that augmented syscalls in perf trace is broken, this will be fixed in a later commit adding support using BPF skeletons. The removal of BPF events causes an unused label warning from flex generated code, so update build to ignore it: ``` util/parse-events-flex.c:2704:1: error: label ‘find_rule’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-label] 2704 | find_rule: /* we branch to this label when backing up */ ``` Committer notes: Extracted from a larger patch that was also removing the support for linking with libllvm and libclang, that were an alternative to using an external clang execution to compile the .c event source code into BPF bytecode. Testing it: # perf trace -e /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c event syntax error: '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c' \___ Bad event or PMU Unabled to find PMU or event on a PMU of 'home' Initial error: event syntax error: '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c' \___ Cannot find PMU `home'.

perf test: Add Symbols test

2023-01-22T21:09:56+00:00

Add a test to check function symbols do not overlap and are not zero length. The main motivation for the test is to make it easier to review changes to PLT symbol synthesis i.e. changes to dso__synthesize_plt_symbols(). By default the test uses the perf executable as a test DSO, but a specific DSO can be specified via a new perf test option "--dso". The test is useful in the following ways: - Any DSO can be tested, even ones that do not run on the current architecture. For example, using cross-compiled DSOs to see how well perf handles different architectures. - With verbose > 1 (e.g. -vv), all the symbols are printed, which makes it easier to see issues. - perf removes duplicate symbols and expands zero-length symbols to reach the next symbol, however that is done before adding synthesized symbols, so the test is checking those also. Example: $ perf test -v Symbols 74: Symbols : --- start --- test child forked, pid 154918 Testing /home/user/bin/perf Overlapping symbols: 7d000-7f3a0 g _init 7d030-7d040 g __printf_chk@plt test child finished with -1 ---- end ---- Symbols: FAILED! Note the test fails because perf expands the _init symbol over the PLT because there are no PLT symbols at that point, but then dso__synthesize_plt_symbols() creates them.

perf test: Add event group test for events in multiple PMUs

2022-12-14T14:16:12+00:00

Multiple events in a group can belong to one or more PMUs, however there are some limitations. One of the limitations is that perf doesn't allow creating a group of events from different hw PMUs. Write a simple test to create various combinations of hw, sw and uncore PMU events and verify group creation succeeds or fails as expected.

perf test: Add 'datasym' test workload

2022-11-23T13:29:21+00:00

The datasym workload is to check if perf mem command gets the data addresses precisely. This is needed for data symbol test. $ perf test -w datasym I had to keep the buf1 in the data section, otherwise it could end up in the BSS and was mmaped as a separate //anon region, then it was not symbolized at all. It needs to be fixed separately. Committer notes: Add a -U _FORTIFY_SOURCE to the datasym CFLAGS, as the main perf flags set it and it requires building with optimization, and this new test has a -O0.
