perf tools: Declare syscalltbl_*[] as const for all archs

2023-06-05T14:36:17+00:00

syscalltbl_*[] should never be changing, let us declare it as const.

Add basic support for LoongArch, which is very similar to the MIPS version. Signed-off-by: Ming Wang Signed-off-by: Huacai Chen

perf tools: Generate mips syscalls_n64.c syscall table

2021-03-01T17:49:28+00:00

Grab a copy of arch/mips/kernel/syscalls/syscall_n64.tbl and use it to generate tools/perf/arch/mips/include/generated/asm/syscalls_n64.c file, this is similar with commit 1b700c997500 ("perf tools: Build syscall table .c header from kernel's syscall_64.tbl") Signed-off-by: Tiezhu Yang Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Juxin Gao Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Thomas Bogendoerfer Cc: Xuefeng Li Cc: linux-mips@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1612409724-3516-4-git-send-email-yangtiezhu@loongson.cn Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf trace: Use zalloc() to make sure all fields are zeroed in the syscalltbl constructor

2020-05-29T19:50:29+00:00

In the past this wasn't needed as the libaudit based code would use just one field, and the alternative constructor would fill in all the fields, but now that even when using the libaudit based method we need the other fields, switch to zalloc() to make sure the other fields are zeroed at instantiation time.

perf trace: Preallocate the syscall table

2019-07-29T21:34:42+00:00

We'll continue reading its details from tracefs as we need it, but preallocate the whole thing otherwise we may realloc and end up with pointers to the previous buffer. I.e. in an upcoming algorithm we'll look for syscalls that have function signatures that are similar to a given syscall to see if we can reuse its BPF augmenter, so we may be at syscall 42, having a 'struct syscall' pointing to that slot in trace->syscalls.table[] and try to read the slot for an yet unread syscall, which would realloc that table to read the info for syscall 43, say, which would trigger a realoc of trace->syscalls.table[], and then the pointer we had for syscall 42 would be pointing to the previous block of memory. b00m.

perf trace arm64: Use generated syscall table

2018-07-24T17:53:01+00:00

This should speed up accessing new system calls introduced with the kernel rather than waiting for libaudit updates to include them. It also enables users to specify wildcards, for example, perf trace -e 'open*', just like was already possible on x86, s390, and powerpc, which means arm64 can now pass the "Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname" test.
