perf callchain: Always populate the addr_location map when adding IP

2025-06-19T13:32:08+00:00

[ Upstream commit a913ef6fd883c05bd6538ed21ee1e773f0d750b7 ] Dropping symbols also meant the callchain maps wasn't populated, but the callchain map is needed to find the DSO. Plumb the symbols option better, falling back to thread__find_map() rather than thread__find_symbol() when symbols are disabled.

perf machine: Don't ignore _etext when not a text symbol

[ Upstream commit 7a93786c306296f15e728b1dbd949a319e4e3d19 ] Depending on how vmlinux.lds is written, _etext might be the very first data symbol instead of the very last text symbol. Don't require it to be a text symbol, accept any symbol type.

perf machine: Initialize machine->env to address a segfault

2024-12-19T17:13:11+00:00

[ Upstream commit 88a6e2f67cc94f751a74409ab4c21e5fc8ea6757 ] Its used from trace__run(), for the 'perf trace' live mode, i.e. its strace-like, non-perf.data file processing mode, the most common one. The trace__run() function will set trace->host using machine__new_host() that is supposed to give a machine instance representing the running machine, and since we'll use perf_env__arch_strerrno() to get the right errno -> string table, we need to use machine->env, so initialize it in machine__new_host().

perf dso: Fix symtab_type for kmod compression

[ Upstream commit 05a62936e6b14c005db3b0c9c7d8b93d825dd9ca ] During the rework of the dso structure in patch ee756ef7491eafd an increment was forgotten for the symtab_type in case the data for the kernel module are compressed. This affects the probing of the kernel modules, which fails if the data are not already cached. Increment the value of the symtab_type to its compressed variant so the data could be recovered successfully.

perf callchain: Allow symbols to be optional when resolving a callchain

2024-09-10T20:32:47+00:00

In uses like 'perf inject' it is not necessary to gather the symbol for each call chain location, the map for the sample IP is wanted so that build IDs and the like can be injected. Make gathering the symbol in the callchain_cursor optional. For a 'perf inject -B' command this lowers the peak RSS from 54.1MB to 29.6MB by avoiding loading symbols.

perf annotate: Save branch counters for each block

2024-08-14T13:20:40+00:00

When annotating a basic block, it's useful to display the occurrences of other events in the block. The branch counter feature is only available for newer Intel platforms. So a dedicated option to display the branch counters is not introduced. Reuse the existing --total-cycles option, which triggers the annotation of a basic block and displays the cycle-related annotation. When the branch counters information is available, the branch counters are automatically appended after all the cycle-related annotation. Accounting the branch counters as well when accounting the cycles in hist__account_cycles(). In 'struct annotated_branch', introduce a br_cntr array to save the accumulation of each branch counter. In a sample, all the branch counters for a branch are saved in a u64 space. Because the saturation of a branch counter is small, e.g., for Intel Sierra Forest, the saturation is only 3. Add ANNOTATION__BR_CNTR_SATURATED_FLAG to indicate if a branch counter once saturated. That can be used to indicate a potential event lost because of the saturation.

perf callchain: Fix stitch LBR memory leaks

2024-08-08T20:30:27+00:00

The 'struct callchain_cursor_node' has a 'struct map_symbol' whose maps and map members are reference counted. Ensure these values use a _get routine to increment the reference counts and use map_symbol__exit() to release the reference counts. Do similar for 'struct thread's prev_lbr_cursor, but save the size of the prev_lbr_cursor array so that it may be iterated. Ensure that when stitch_nodes are placed on the free list the map_symbols are exited. Fix resolve_lbr_callchain_sample() by replacing list_replace_init() to list_splice_init(), so the whole list is moved and nodes aren't leaked. A reproduction of the memory leaks is possible with a leak sanitizer build in the perf report command of: ``` $ perf record -e cycles --call-graph lbr perf test -w thloop $ perf report --stitch-lbr ``` Reviewed-by: Kan Liang Fixes: ff165628d72644e3 ("perf callchain: Stitch LBR call stack") Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers [ Basic tests after applying the patch, repeating the example above ] Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: Anne Macedo Cc: Changbin Du Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240808054644.1286065-1-irogers@google.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
