perf inject: Fix leader sampling inserting additional samples

2024-10-04T14:29:23+00:00

[ Upstream commit 79bcd34e0f3da39fda841406ccc957405e724852 ] The processing of leader samples would turn an individual sample with a group of read values into multiple samples. 'perf inject' would pass through the additional samples increasing the output data file size: $ perf record -g -e "{instructions,cycles}:S" -o perf.orig.data true $ perf script -D -i perf.orig.data | sed -e 's/perf.orig.data/perf.data/g' > orig.txt $ perf inject -i perf.orig.data -o perf.new.data $ perf script -D -i perf.new.data | sed -e 's/perf.new.data/perf.data/g' > new.txt $ diff -u orig.txt new.txt --- orig.txt 2024-07-29 14:29:40.606576769 -0700 +++ new.txt 2024-07-29 14:30:04.142737434 -0700 ... -0xc550@perf.data [0x30]: event: 3 +0xc550@perf.data [0xd0]: event: 9 +. +. ... raw event: size 208 bytes +. 0000: 09 00 00 00 01 00 d0 00 fc 72 01 86 ff ff ff ff .........r...... +. 0010: 74 7d 2c 00 74 7d 2c 00 fb c3 79 f9 ba d5 05 00 t},.t},...y..... +. 0020: e6 cb 1a 00 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ +. 0030: 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 76 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 ........v....... +. 0040: e6 cb 1a 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ +. 0050: 62 18 00 00 00 00 00 00 f6 cb 1a 00 00 00 00 00 b............... +. 0060: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0c 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ +. 0070: 80 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff fc 72 01 86 ff ff ff ff .........r...... +. 0080: f3 0e 6e 85 ff ff ff ff 0c cb 7f 85 ff ff ff ff ..n............. +. 0090: bc f2 87 85 ff ff ff ff 44 af 7f 85 ff ff ff ff ........D....... +. 00a0: bd be 7f 85 ff ff ff ff 26 d0 7f 85 ff ff ff ff ........&....... +. 00b0: 6d a4 ff 85 ff ff ff ff ea 00 20 86 ff ff ff ff m......... ..... +. 00c0: 00 fe ff ff ff ff ff ff 57 14 4f 43 fc 7e 00 00 ........W.OC.~.. + +1642373909693435 0xc550 [0xd0]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x1): 2915700/2915700: 0xffffffff860172fc period: 1 addr: 0 +...

This behavior is incorrect as in the case above 'perf inject' should have done nothing. Fix this behavior by disabling separating samples for a tool that requests it. Only request this for `perf inject` so as to not affect other perf tools. With the patch and the test above there are no differences between the orig.txt and new.txt.

perf record: Add finished init event

2022-06-23T14:54:22+00:00

In preparation for recording sideband events in a virtual machine guest so that they can be injected into a host perf.data file. This is needed to enable injecting events after the initial synthesized user events (that have an all zero id sample) but before regular events. Committer notes: Add entry about PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_INIT to tools/perf/Documentation/perf.data-file-format.txt.

perf tools: Add support for PERF_RECORD_AUX_OUTPUT_HW_ID

2021-10-20T14:22:27+00:00

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.

2020-07-10T11:20:01+00:00

Add processing for PERF_RECORD_TEXT_POKE events. When a text poke event is processed, then the kernel dso data cache is updated with the poked bytes.

perf record: Support synthesizing cgroup events

2020-04-03T12:37:55+00:00

Synthesize cgroup events by iterating cgroup filesystem directories. The cgroup event only saves the portion of cgroup path after the mount point and the cgroup id (which actually is a file handle).

perf tools: Basic support for CGROUP event

2020-04-03T12:37:55+00:00

Implement basic functionality to support cgroup tracking. Each cgroup can be identified by inode number which can be read from userspace too. The actual cgroup processing will come in the later patch.
