perf callchain: Fix srcline printing with inlines

2026-03-04T12:20:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit abec464767b5d26f0612250d511c18f420826ca1 ] sample__fprintf_callchain() was using map__fprintf_srcline() which won't report inline line numbers. Fix by using the srcline from the callchain and falling back to the map variant.

perf arm_spe: Fix memset subclass in operation

2026-01-11T14:21:26+00:00

[ Upstream commit 33e1fffea492b7158a168914dc0da6aedf78d08e ] The operation subclass is extracted from bits [7..1] of the payload. Since bit [0] is not parsed, there is no chance to match the memset type (0x25). As a result, the memset payload is never parsed successfully. Instead of extracting a unified bit field, change to extract the specific bits for each operation subclass.

perf arm-spe: Extend branch operations

[ Upstream commit 64d86c03e1441742216b6332bdfabfb6ede31662 ] In Arm ARM (ARM DDI 0487, L.a), the section "D18.2.7 Operation Type packet", the branch subclass is extended for Call Return (CR), Guarded control stack data access (GCS). This commit adds support CR and GCS operations. The IND (indirect) operation is defined only in bit [1], its macro is updated accordingly. Move the COND (Conditional) macro into the same group with other operations for better maintenance.

perf lock contention: Load kernel map before lookup

2026-01-11T14:21:19+00:00

[ Upstream commit 553d18c98a896094b99a01765b9698b204183d49 ] On some machines, it caused troubles when it tried to find kernel symbols. I think it's because kernel modules and kallsyms are messed up during load and split. Basically we want to make sure the kernel map is loaded and the code has it in the lock_contention_read(). But recently we added more lookups in the lock_contention_prepare() which is called before _read(). Also the kernel map (kallsyms) may not be the first one in the group like on ARM. Let's use machine__kernel_map() rather than just loading the first map.

Revert "perf dso: Add missed dsoput to dsoload_kcore"

2025-11-24T09:30:10+00:00

This reverts commit e5de9ea7796e79f3cd082624f788cc3442bff2a8. The patch introduced `map__zput(new_node->map)` in the kcore load path, causing a segmentation fault when running `perf c2c report`. The issue arises because `maps__merge_in` directly modifies and inserts the caller's `new_map`, causing it to be freed prematurely while still referenced by kmaps. Later branchs (6.12, 6.15, 6.16) are not affected because they use a different merge approach with a lazily sorted array, which avoids modifying the original `new_map`.

perf python: split Clang options when invoking Popen

2025-10-19T14:30:43+00:00

[ Upstream commit c6a43bc3e8f6102a47da0d2e53428d08f00172fb ] When passing a list to subprocess.Popen, each element maps to one argv token. Current code bundles multiple Clang flags into a single element, something like: cmd = ['clang', '--target=x86_64-linux-gnu -fintegrated-as -Wno-cast-function-type-mismatch', 'test-hello.c'] So Clang only sees one long, invalid option instead of separate flags, as a result, the script cannot capture any log via PIPE. Fix this by using shlex.split() to separate the string so each option becomes its own argv element. The fixed list will be: cmd = ['clang', '--target=x86_64-linux-gnu', '-fintegrated-as', '-Wno-cast-function-type-mismatch', 'test-hello.c'] Fixes: 09e6f9f98370 ("perf python: Fix splitting CC into compiler and options") Signed-off-by: Leo Yan Reviewed-by: Ian Rogers Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251006-perf_build_android_ndk-v3-2-4305590795b2@arm.com Cc: Palmer Dabbelt Cc: Albert Ou Cc: Alexandre Ghiti Cc: Nick Desaulniers Cc: Justin Stitt Cc: Bill Wendling Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Nathan Chancellor Cc: James Clark Cc: linux-riscv@lists.infradead.org Cc: llvm@lists.linux.dev Cc: Paul Walmsley Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-perf-users@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin
