perf tests: Fix indexing when invoking subtests

2018-11-10T15:42:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit aa90f9f9554616d5738f7bedb4a8f0e5e14d1bc6 ] Recently, the subtest numbering was changed to start from 1. While it is fine for displaying results, this should not be the case when the subtests are actually invoked. Typically, the subtests are stored in zero-indexed arrays and invoked based on the index passed to the main test function. Since the index now starts from 1, the second subtest in the array (index 1) gets invoked instead of the first (index 0). This applies to all of the following subtests but for the last one, the subtest always fails because it does not meet the boundary condition of the subtest index being lesser than the number of subtests. This can be observed on powerpc64 and x86_64 systems running Fedora 28 as shown below.

perf evsel: Fix probing of precise_ip level for default cycles event

[ Upstream commit 7a1ac110c22eb726684c837544a2d42c33e07be7 ] Since commit 18e7a45af91a ("perf/x86: Reject non sampling events with precise_ip") returns -EINVAL for sys_perf_event_open() with an attribute with (attr.precise_ip > 0 && attr.sample_period == 0), just like is done in the routine used to probe the max precise level when no events were passed to 'perf record' or 'perf top', i.e.: perf_evsel__new_cycles() perf_event_attr__set_max_precise_ip() The x86 code, in x86_pmu_hw_config(), which is called all the way from sys_perf_event_open() did, starting with the aforementioned commit: /* There's no sense in having PEBS for non sampling events: */ if (!is_sampling_event(event)) return -EINVAL; Which makes it fail for cycles:ppp, cycles:pp and cycles:p, always using just the non precise cycles variant.

And here is the text from a report and alternative proposed patch by Thomas-Mich Richter: --- On s390 the counter and sampling facility do not support a precise IP skid level and sometimes returns EOPNOTSUPP when structure member precise_ip in struct perf_event_attr is not set to zero. On s390 commnd 'perf record -- true' fails with error EOPNOTSUPP. This happens only when no events are specified on command line. The functions called are ... --> perf_evlist__add_default --> perf_evsel__new_cycles --> perf_event_attr__set_max_precise_ip The last function determines the value of structure member precise_ip by invoking the perf_event_open() system call and checking the return code. The first successful open is the value for precise_ip. However the value is determined without setting member sample_period and indicates no sampling. On s390 the counter facility and sampling facility are different. The above procedure determines a precise_ip value of 3 using the counter facility. Later it uses the sampling facility with a value of 3 and fails with EOPNOTSUPP. --- v2: Older compilers (e.g. gcc 4.4.7) don't support referencing members of unnamed union members in the container struct initialization, so move from: struct perf_event_attr attr = { ... .sample_period = 1, }; to right after it as: struct perf_event_attr attr = { ... }; attr.sample_period = 1; v3: We need to reset .sample_period to 0 to let the users of perf_evsel__new_cycles() to properly setup attr.sample_period or attr.sample_freq.

perf test session topology: Fix test on s390

perf tests: Use arch__compare_symbol_names to compare symbols

2018-05-30T05:50:50+00:00

[ Upstream commit ab6e9a99345131cd8e54268d1d0dc04a33f7ed11 ] The symbol search called by machine__find_kernel_symbol_by_name is using internally arch__compare_symbol_names function to compare 2 symbol names, because different archs have different ways of comparing symbols. Mostly for skipping '.' prefixes and similar. In test 1 when we try to find matching symbols in kallsyms and vmlinux, by address and by symbol name. When either is found we compare the pair symbol names by simple strcmp, which is not good enough for reasons explained in previous paragraph. On powerpc this can cause lockup, because even thought we found the pair, the compared names are different and don't match simple strcmp. Following code path is executed, that leads to lockup: - we find the pair in kallsyms by sym->start next_pair: - we compare the names and it fails - we find the pair by sym->name - the pair addresses match so we call goto next_pair because we assume the names match in this case Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa Tested-by: Naveen N.
