machine: Adopt is_lock_function() from builtin-lock.c

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

It is used in bpf_lock_contention.c and builtin-lock.c will be made CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y conditional, so move it to machine.c, that is always available. This makes those 4 global variables for sched and lock text start and end to move to 'struct machine' too, as conceivably we can have that info for several machine instances, say some 'perf diff' like tool.

perf machine: Move machine__resolve() from event.h

2022-10-31T14:06:52+00:00

Its a machine method, so move it to machine.h, this way some places that were using event.h just to get this prototype may stop doing so and speed up building and disentanble the header dependency graph. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf machine: Use realloc_array_as_needed() in machine__set_current_tid()

2022-07-20T14:08:37+00:00

Prepare machine__set_current_tid() for use with guest machines that do not currently have a machine->env->nr_cpus_avail value by making use of realloc_array_as_needed().

perf tools: Automatically use guest kcore_dir if present

2022-07-20T14:08:37+00:00

When registering a guest machine using machine_pid from the id index, check perf.data for a matching kcore_dir subdirectory and set the kallsyms file name accordingly. If set, use it to find the machine's kernel symbols and object code (from kcore).

perf buildid-list: Add a "-m" option to show kernel and modules build-ids

2022-07-18T19:35:34+00:00

This new option displays all of the information needed to do external BuildID-based symbolization of kernel stack traces, such as those collected by bpf_get_stackid(). For each kernel module plus the main kernel, it displays the BuildID, the start and end virtual addresses of that module's text range (rounded out to page boundaries), and the pathname of the module. When run as a non-privileged user, the actual addresses of the modules' text ranges are not available, so the tools displays "0, " for kernel modules and "0, 0xffffffffffffffff" for the kernel itself. Sample output: root# perf buildid-list -m cf6df852fd4da122d616153353cc8f560fd12fe0 ffffffffa5400000 ffffffffa6001e27 [kernel.kallsyms] 1aa7209aa2acb067d66ed6cf7676d65066384d61 ffffffffc0087000 ffffffffc008b000 /lib/modules/5.15.15-1rodete2-amd64/kernel/crypto/sha512_generic.ko 3857815b5bf0183697b68f8fe0ea06121644041e ffffffffc008c000 ffffffffc0098000 /lib/modules/5.15.15-1rodete2-amd64/kernel/arch/x86/crypto/sha512-ssse3.ko 4081fde0bca2bc097cb3e9d1efcb836047d485f1 ffffffffc0099000 ffffffffc009f000 /lib/modules/5.15.15-1rodete2-amd64/kernel/drivers/acpi/button.ko 1ef81ba4890552ea6b0314f9635fc43fc8cef568 ffffffffc00a4000 ffffffffc00aa000 /lib/modules/5.15.15-1rodete2-amd64/kernel/crypto/cryptd.ko cc5c985506cb240d7d082b55ed260cbb851f983e ffffffffc00af000 ffffffffc00b6000 /lib/modules/5.15.15-1rodete2-amd64/kernel/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-piix4.ko [...] Committer notes: u64 formatter should be PRIx64 for printing as hex numbers, fix this: 28 5.28 debian:experimental-x-mips : FAIL gcc version 11.2.0 (Debian 11.2.0-18) builtin-buildid-list.c: In function 'buildid__map_cb': builtin-buildid-list.c:32:24: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 3 has type 'u64' {aka 'long long unsigned int'} [-Werror=format=] 32 | printf("%s %16lx %16lx", bid_buf, map->start, map->end); | ~~~~^ ~~~~~~~~~~ | | | | long unsigned int u64 {aka long long unsigned int} | %16llx builtin-buildid-list.c:32:30: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 4 has type 'u64' {aka 'long long unsigned int'} [-Werror=format=] 32 | printf("%s %16lx %16lx", bid_buf, map->start, map->end); | ~~~~^ ~~~~~~~~ | | | | long unsigned int u64 {aka long long unsigned int} | %16llx cc1: all warnings being treated as errors Signed-off-by: Blake Jones Acked-by: Jiri Olsa Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Ian Rogers Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220629213632.3899212-1-blakejones@google.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Add guest_code support

2022-05-23T13:18:38+00:00

A common case for KVM test programs is that the test program acts as the hypervisor, creating, running and destroying the virtual machine, and providing the guest object code from its own object code. In this case, the VM is not running an OS, but only the functions loaded into it by the hypervisor test program, and conveniently, loaded at the same virtual addresses. Normally to resolve addresses, MMAP events are needed to map addresses back to the object code and debug symbols for that object code. Currently, there is no way to get such mapping information from guests but, in the scenario described above, the guest has the same mappings as the hypervisor, so support for that scenario can be achieved. To support that, copy the host thread's maps to the guest thread's maps. Note, we do not discover the guest until we encounter a guest event, which works well because it is not until then that we know that the host thread's maps have been set up. Typically the main function for the guest object code is called "guest_code", hence the name chosen for this feature. Note, that is just a convention, the function could be named anything, and the tools do not care. This is primarily aimed at supporting Intel PT, or similar, where trace data can be recorded for a guest. Refer to the final patch in this series "perf intel-pt: Add guest_code support" for an example.

perf tools: Add machine to machines back pointer

perf arm64: Inject missing frames when using 'perf record --call-graph=fp'

2021-12-21T21:37:13+00:00

When unwinding using frame pointers on ARM64, the return address of the current function may not have been pushed into the stack when a function was interrupted, which makes perf show an incorrect call graph to the user. Consider the following example program: void leaf() { /* long computation */ } void parent() { // (1) leaf(); // (2) } ... could be compiled into (using gcc -fno-inline -fno-omit-frame-pointer): leaf: /* long computation */ nop ret parent: // (1) stp x29, x30, [sp, -16]! mov x29, sp bl parent nop ldp x29, x30, [sp], 16 // (2) ret If the program is interrupted at (1), (2), or any point in "leaf:", the call graph will skip the callers of the current function. We can unwind using the dwarf info and check if the return addr is the same as the LR register, and inject the missing frame into the call graph. Before this patch, the above example shows the following call-graph when recording using "--call-graph fp" mode in ARM64: # Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ........ ........ ................ ...................... # 99.86% 99.86% program3 program3 [.] leaf | ---_start __libc_start_main main leaf As can be seen, the "parent" function is missing. This is specially problematic in "leaf" because for leaf functions the compiler may always omit pushing the return addr into the stack. After this patch, it shows the correct graph: # Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ........ ........ ................ ...................... # 99.86% 99.86% program3 program3 [.] leaf | ---_start __libc_start_main main parent leaf Reviewed-by: James Clark Signed-off-by: Alexandre Truong Acked-by: Jiri Olsa Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: John Garry Cc: Leo Yan Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Mathieu Poirier Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Will Deacon Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211217154521.80603-7-german.gomez@arm.com Signed-off-by: German Gomez [ Rename machine__normalize_is() to machine__normalized_is(), as suggested by James Clark ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
