perf annotate bpf: Don't enclose non-debug code with an assert()

2023-09-19T10:22:57+00:00

[ Upstream commit 979e9c9fc9c2a761303585e07fe2699bdd88182f ] In 616b14b47a86d880 ("perf build: Conditionally define NDEBUG") we started using NDEBUG=1 when DEBUG=1 isn't present, so code that is enclosed with assert() is not called. In dd317df072071903 ("perf build: Make binutil libraries opt in") we stopped linking against binutils-devel, for licensing reasons. Recently people asked me why annotation of BPF programs wasn't working, i.e. this: $ perf annotate bpf_prog_5280546344e3f45c_kfree_skb was returning: case SYMBOL_ANNOTATE_ERRNO__NO_LIBOPCODES_FOR_BPF: scnprintf(buf, buflen, "Please link with binutils's libopcode to enable BPF annotation"); This was on a fedora rpm, so its new enough that I had to try to test by rebuilding using BUILD_NONDISTRO=1, only to get it segfaulting on me. This combination made this libopcode function not to be called: assert(bfd_check_format(bfdf, bfd_object)); Changing it to: if (!bfd_check_format(bfdf, bfd_object)) abort(); Made it work, looking at this "check" function made me realize it changes the 'bfdf' internal state, i.e. we better call it. So stop using assert() on it, just call it and abort if it fails. Probably it is better to propagate the error, etc, but it seems it is unlikely to fail from the usage done so far and we really need to stop using libopcodes, so do the quick fix above and move on. With it we have BPF annotation back working when built with BUILD_NONDISTRO=1: ⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$ perf annotate --stdio2 bpf_prog_5280546344e3f45c_kfree_skb | head No kallsyms or vmlinux with build-id 939bc71a1a51cdc434e60af93c7e734f7d5c0e7e was found Samples: 12 of event 'cpu-clock:ppp', 4000 Hz, Event count (approx.): 3000000, [percent: local period] bpf_prog_5280546344e3f45c_kfree_skb() bpf_prog_5280546344e3f45c_kfree_skb Percent int kfree_skb(struct trace_event_raw_kfree_skb *args) { nop 33.33 xchg %ax,%ax push %rbp mov %rsp,%rbp sub $0x180,%rsp push %rbx push %r13 ⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$ Fixes: 6987561c9e86eace ("perf annotate: Enable annotation of BPF programs") Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Ian Rogers Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Mohamed Mahmoud Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Dave Tucker Cc: Derek Barbosa Cc: Song Liu Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/ZMrMzoQBe0yqMek1@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

tools perf: Fix compilation error with new binutils

2023-03-17T07:49:04+00:00

commit 83aa0120487e8bc3f231e72c460add783f71f17c upstream. binutils changed the signature of init_disassemble_info(), which now causes compilation failures for tools/perf/util/annotate.c, e.g. on debian unstable. Relevant binutils commit: https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=60a3da00bd5407f07 Wire up the feature test and switch to init_disassemble_info_compat(), which were introduced in prior commits, fixing the compilation failure. I verified that perf can still disassemble bpf programs by using bpftrace under load, recording a perf trace, and then annotating the bpf "function" with and without the changes. With old binutils there's no change in output before/after this patch. When comparing the output from old binutils (2.35) to new bintuils with the patch (upstream snapshot) there are a few output differences, but they are unrelated to this patch. An example hunk is: 1.15 : 55:mov %rbp,%rdx 0.00 : 58:add $0xfffffffffffffff8,%rdx 0.00 : 5c:xor %ecx,%ecx - 1.03 : 5e:callq 0xffffffffe12aca3c + 1.03 : 5e:call 0xffffffffe12aca3c 0.00 : 63:xor %eax,%eax - 2.18 : 65:leaveq - 2.82 : 66:retq + 2.18 : 65:leave + 2.82 : 66:ret Signed-off-by: Andres Freund Acked-by: Quentin Monnet Cc: Alexei Starovoitov Cc: Ben Hutchings Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Sedat Dilek Cc: bpf@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220622181918.ykrs5rsnmx3og4sv@alap3.anarazel.de Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220801013834.156015-5-andres@anarazel.de Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Hauke Mehrtens Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

perf annotate: Add disassembly warnings for annotate --stdio

2021-08-03T20:04:06+00:00

Currently 'perf annotate --stdio' (and --stdio2) will exit without printing anything if there are disassembly errors. Apply the same error handler that's used for TUI and GTK modes.
