perf tools: Support reading PERF_FORMAT_LOST

2022-08-19T18:56:56+00:00

The recent kernel added lost count can be read from either read(2) or ring buffer data with PERF_SAMPLE_READ. As it's a variable length data we need to access it according to the format info. But for perf tools use cases, PERF_FORMAT_ID is always set. So we can only check PERF_FORMAT_LOST bit to determine the data format. Add sample_read_value_size() and next_sample_read_value() helpers to make it a bit easier to access. Use them in all places where it reads the struct sample_read_value.

perf cpumap: Synthetic events and const/static

2022-08-19T15:26:58+00:00

Make the cpumap arguments const to make it clearer they are in rather than out arguments. Make two functions static and remove external declarations.

perf tools: Add machine_pid and vcpu to perf_sample

2022-07-20T14:08:04+00:00

When parsing a sample with a sample ID, copy machine_pid and vcpu from perf_sample_id to perf_sample. Note, machine_pid will be zero when unused, so only a non-zero value represents a guest machine. vcpu should be ignored if machine_pid is zero. Note also, machine_pid is used with events that have come from injecting a guest perf.data file, however guest events recorded on the host (i.e. using perf kvm) have the (QEMU) hypervisor process pid to identify them - refer machines__find_for_cpumode().

perf intel-pt: Synthesize CFE (Control Flow Event) / EVD (Event Data) event

Synthesize an attribute event and sample events for Intel PT Event Trace events represented by CFE and EVD packets. Committer notes: Make 'struct perf_synth_intel_evd evd[]' evd[0] at the end of 'struct perf_synth_intel_evt' as it is breaking the build with in many compilers with (e.g. clang version 13.0.0 (Fedora 13.0.0-3.fc35)): util/intel-pt.c:2213:31: error: field 'cfe' with variable sized type 'struct perf_synth_intel_evt' not at the end of a struct or class is a GNU extension [-Werror,-Wgnu-variable-sized-type-not-at-end] struct perf_synth_intel_evt cfe; ^ Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: Jiri Olsa Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220124084201.2699795-15-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Define new D (Intr Disable) and t (Intr Toggle) flags

2022-02-15T20:09:25+00:00

Define 2 new flags to represent: - when interrupts are disabled (D) - when interrupt disabling toggles (t) This gives 4 combinations: no flag, interrupts enabled t interrupts were enabled but become disabled D interrupts are disabled Dt interrupts were disabled but become enabled Committer notes: Those are control flow flags, as per 'tools/perf/Documentation/perf-intel-pt.txt: An interesting field that is not printed by default is 'flags' which can be displayed as follows: perf script --itrace=ibxwpe -F+flags The flags are "bcrosyiABExgh" which stand for branch, call, return, conditional, system, asynchronous, interrupt, transaction abort, trace begin, trace end, in transaction, VM-entry, and VM-exit respectively.

perf tools: Prevent out-of-bounds access to registers

2021-12-11T11:19:46+00:00

The size of the cache of register values is arch-dependant (PERF_REGS_MAX). This has the potential of causing an out-of-bounds access in the function "perf_reg_value" if the local architecture contains less registers than the one the perf.data file was recorded on. Since the maximum number of registers is bound by the bitmask "u64 cache_mask", and the size of the cache when running under x86 systems is 64 already, fix the size to 64 and add a range-check to the function "perf_reg_value" to prevent out-of-bounds access.

The PERF_RECORD_AUX_OUTPUT_HW_ID event provides a way to match AUX output data like Intel PT PEBS-via-PT back to the event that it came from, by providing a hardware ID that is present in the AUX output.
