Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
"Build-ID processing goodies:
Build-IDs are content based hashes to link regions of memory to ELF
files in post processing. They have been available in distros for
quite a while:
$ file /bin/bash
/bin/bash: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2,
BuildID[sha1]=707a1c670cd72f8e55ffedfbe94ea98901b7ce3a,
for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, stripped
It is possible to ask the kernel to get it from mmap executable
backing storage at time they are being put in place and send it as
metadata at that moment to have in perf.data.
Prefer that across the board to speed up 'record' time - it post
processes the samples to find binaries touched by any samples and
to save them with build-ID. It can skip reading build-ID in
userspace if it comes from the kernel.
perf record:
* Make --buildid-mmap default. The kernel can generate MMAP2 events
with a build-ID from ELF header. Use that by default instead of using
inode and device ID to identify binaries. It also can be disabled
with --no-buildid-mmap.
* Use BPF for -u/--uid option to sample processes belong to a user.
BPF can track user processes more accurately and the existing logic
often fails to get the list of processes due to race with reading the
/proc filesystem.
* Generate PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA when it profiles BPF programs and
they have variables starting with "bpf_metadata_". This will help to
identify BPF objects used in the profile. This has been supported in
bpftool for some time and allows the recording of metadata such as
commit hashes, versions, etc, that now gets recorded in perf.data as
well.
* Collect list of DSOs touched in the sample callchains as well as in
the sample itself. This would increase the processing time at the end
of record, but can improve the data quality.
perf stat:
* Add a new 'drm' pseudo-PMU support like in 'hwmon'. It can collect
DRM usage stats using fdinfo in /proc.
On my Intel laptop, it shows like below:
$ perf list drm

Counting events system-wide with a specified CPU prior to this change
worked:
```
$ perf stat -e 'msr/tsc/,msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_core/,msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_atom/' -a sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
59,393,419,099 msr/tsc/
33,927,965,927 msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_core/
25,465,608,044 msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_atom/
```
However, when counting with process the counts became system wide:
```
$ perf stat -e 'msr/tsc/,msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_core/,msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_atom/' perf test -F 10
10.1: Basic parsing test : Ok
10.2: Parsing without PMU name : Ok
10.3: Parsing with PMU name : Ok
Performance counter stats for 'perf test -F 10':
59,233,549 msr/tsc/
59,227,556 msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_core/
59,224,053 msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_atom/
```
Make the handling of CPU maps with event parsing clearer. When an
event is parsed creating an evsel the cpus should be either the PMU's
cpumask or user specified CPUs.
Update perf_evlist__propagate_maps so that it doesn't clobber the user
specified CPUs. Try to make the behavior clearer, firstly fix up
missing cpumasks. Next, perform sanity checks and adjustments from the
global evlist CPU requests and for the PMU including simplifying to
the "any CPU"(-1) value. Finally remove the event if the cpumask is
empty.
So that events are opened with a CPU and a thread change stat's
create_perf_stat_counter to give both.
With the change things are fixed:
```
$ perf stat --no-scale -e 'msr/tsc/,msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_core/,msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_atom/' perf test -F 10
10.1: Basic parsing test : Ok
10.2: Parsing without PMU name : Ok
10.3: Parsing with PMU name : Ok
Performance counter stats for 'perf test -F 10':
63,704,975 msr/tsc/
47,060,704 msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_core/ (4.62%)
16,640,591 msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_atom/ (2.18%)
```
However, note the "--no-scale" option is used. This is necessary as
the running time for the event on the counter isn't the same as the
enabled time because the thread doesn't necessarily run on the CPUs
specified for the counter. All counter values are scaled with:
scaled_value = value * time_enabled / time_running
and so without --no-scale the scaled_value becomes very large. This
problem already exists on hybrid systems for the same reason. Here are
2 runs of the same code with an instructions event that counts the
same on both types of core, there is no real multiplexing happening on
the event:
```
$ perf stat -e instructions perf test -F 10
...
Performance counter stats for 'perf test -F 10':
87,896,447 cpu_atom/instructions/ (14.37%)
98,171,964 cpu_core/instructions/ (85.63%)
...
$ perf stat --no-scale -e instructions perf test -F 10
...
Performance counter stats for 'perf test -F 10':
13,069,890 cpu_atom/instructions/ (19.32%)
83,460,274 cpu_core/instructions/ (80.68%)
...
```
The scaling has inflated per-PMU instruction counts and the overall
count by 2x.
To fix this the kernel needs changing when a task+CPU event (or just
task event on hybrid) is scheduled out. A fix could be that the state
isn't inactive but off for such events, so that time_enabled counts
don't accumulate on them.

Fuzzer reported a memory access error in bpf_program__record_reloc()
that happens when:
- ".addr_space.1" section exists
- there is a relocation referencing this section
- there are no arena maps defined in BTF.
Sanity checks for maps existence are already present in
bpf_program__record_reloc(), hence this commit adds another one.

Initial __arena global variable support implementation in libbpf
contains a bug: it remembers struct bpf_map pointer for arena, which is
used later on to process relocations. Recording this pointer is
problematic because map pointers are not stable during ELF relocation
collection phase, as an array of struct bpf_map's can be reallocated,
invalidating all the pointers. Libbpf is dealing with similar issues by
using a stable internal map index, though for BPF arena map specifically
this approach wasn't used due to an oversight.
The resulting behavior is non-deterministic issue which depends on exact
layout of ELF object file, number of actual maps, etc. We didn't hit
this until very recently, when this bug started triggering crash in BPF
CI when validating one of sched-ext BPF programs.
The fix is rather straightforward: we just follow an established pattern
of remembering map index (just like obj->kconfig_map_idx, for example)
instead of `struct bpf_map *`, and resolving index to a pointer at the
point where map information is necessary.
While at it also add debug-level message for arena-related relocation
resolution information, which we already have for all other kinds of
maps.

Currently perf aborts when it finds an invalid command. I guess it
depends on the environment as I have some custom commands in the path.
$ perf bad-command
perf: 'bad-command' is not a perf-command. See 'perf --help'.
Aborted (core dumped)
It's because the exclude_cmds() in libsubcmd has a use-after-free when
it removes some entries. After copying one to another entry, it keeps
the pointer in the both position. And the next copy operation will free
the later one but it's the same entry in the previous one.
For example, let's say cmds = { A, B, C, D, E } and excludes = { B, E }.
ci cj ei cmds-name excludes
-----------+--------------------
0 0 0 | A B : cmp < 0, ci == cj
1 1 0 | B B : cmp == 0
2 1 1 | C E : cmp < 0, ci != cj
At this point, it frees cmds->names[1] and cmds->names[1] is assigned to
cmds->names[2].
3 2 1 | D E : cmp < 0, ci != cj
Now it frees cmds->names[2] but it's the same as cmds->names[1]. So
accessing cmds->names[1] will be invalid.
This makes the subcmd tests succeed.

The `name` field in `obj->externs` points into the BTF data at initial
open time. However, some functions may invalidate this after opening and
before loading (e.g. `bpf_map__set_value_size`), which results in
pointers into freed memory and undefined behavior.
The simplest solution is to simply `strdup` these strings, similar to
the `essent_name`, and free them at the same time.
In order to test this path, the `global_map_resize` BPF selftest is
modified slightly to ensure the presence of an extern, which causes this
test to fail prior to the fix. Given there isn't an obvious API or error
to test against, I opted to add this to the existing test as an aspect
of the resizing feature rather than duplicate the test.

(btf_dump->type_names), it returns an error code. However, the cleanup
function btf_dump__free() does not check if btf_dump->type_names is NULL
before attempting to free it. This leads to a null pointer dereference

Look for .rodata maps, find ones with 'bpf_metadata_' variables, extract
their values as strings, and create a new PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA
synthetic event using that data. The code gets invoked from the existing
routine perf_event__synthesize_one_bpf_prog().
For example, a BPF program with the following variables:
const char bpf_metadata_version[] SEC(".rodata") = "3.14159";
int bpf_metadata_value[] SEC(".rodata") = 42;
would generate a PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA record with:
.prog_name = <BPF program name, e.g. "bpf_prog_a1b2c3_foo">
.nr_entries = 2
.entries[0].key = "version"
.entries[0].value = "3.14159"
.entries[1].key = "value"
.entries[1].value = "42"
Each of the BPF programs and subprograms that share those variables would
get a distinct PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA record, with the ".prog_name"
showing the name of each program or subprogram. The prog_name is
deliberately the same as the ".name" field in the corresponding
PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL record.
This code only gets invoked if support for displaying BTF char arrays
as strings is detected.

Currently libbpf supports bpf_program__attach_cgroup() with signature:
LIBBPF_API struct bpf_link *
bpf_program__attach_cgroup(const struct bpf_program *prog, int cgroup_fd);
To support mprog style attachment, additionsl fields like flags,
relative_{fd,id} and expected_revision are needed.
Add a new API:
LIBBPF_API struct bpf_link *
bpf_program__attach_cgroup_opts(const struct bpf_program *prog, int cgroup_fd,
const struct bpf_cgroup_opts *opts);
where bpf_cgroup_opts contains all above needed fields.

libbpf_err_ptr() helpers are meant to return NULL and set errno, if
there is an error. But btf_parse_raw_mmap() is meant to be used
internally and is expected to return ERR_PTR() values. Because of this
mismatch, when libbpf tries to mmap /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux, we don't
detect the error correctly with IS_ERR() check, and never fallback to
old non-mmap-based way of loading vmlinux BTF.
Fix this by using proper ERR_PTR() returns internally.

The BTF dumper code currently displays arrays of characters as just that -
arrays, with each character formatted individually. Sometimes this is what
makes sense, but it's nice to be able to treat that array as a string.
This change adds a special case to the btf_dump functionality to allow
0-terminated arrays of single-byte integer values to be printed as
character strings. Characters for which isprint() returns false are
printed as hex-escaped values. This is enabled when the new ".emit_strings"
is set to 1 in the btf_dump_type_data_opts structure.
As an example, here's what it looks like to dump the string "hello" using
a few different field values for btf_dump_type_data_opts (.compact = 1):
- .emit_strings = 0, .skip_names = 0: (char[6])['h','e','l','l','o',]
- .emit_strings = 0, .skip_names = 1: ['h','e','l','l','o',]
- .emit_strings = 1, .skip_names = 0: (char[6])"hello"
- .emit_strings = 1, .skip_names = 1: "hello"
Here's the string "h\xff", dumped with .compact = 1 and .skip_names = 1:
- .emit_strings = 0: ['h',-1,]
- .emit_strings = 1: "h\xff"

libbpf handling of split BTF has been written largely with the
assumption that multiple splits are possible, i.e. split BTF on top of
split BTF on top of base BTF. One area where this does not quite work
is string handling in split BTF; the start string offset should be the
base BTF string section length + the base BTF string offset. This
worked in the past because for a single split BTF with base the start
string offset was always 0.

Since there is no way to align compressed data in zstd compression, this
patch add a new event type `PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED2`, which adds a field
`data_size` to specify the actual compressed data size.

BTF dedup has a strong assumption that compiler with deduplicate identical
types within any given compilation unit (i.e., .c file). This property
is used when establishing equilvalence of two subgraphs of types.
Unfortunately, this property doesn't always holds in practice. We've
seen cases of having truly identical structs, unions, array definitions,
and, most recently, even pointers to the same type being duplicated
within CU.
Previously, we mitigated this on a case-by-case basis, adding a few
simple heuristics for validating that two BTF types (having two
different type IDs) are structurally the same. But this approach scales
poorly, and we can have more weird cases come up in the future.
So let's take a half-step back, and implement a bit more generic
structural equivalence check, recursively. We still limit it to
reasonable depth to avoid long reference loops. Depth-wise limiting of
potentially cyclical graph isn't great, but as I mentioned below doesn't
seem to be detrimental performance-wise. We can always improve this in
the future with per-type visited markers, if necessary.
Performance-wise this doesn't seem too affect vmlinux BTF dedup, which
makes sense because this logic kicks in not so frequently and only if we
already established a canonical candidate type match, but suddenly find
a different (but probably identical) type.

This happens because BPF_CORE_READ (and other macro) declare the

Fix this by using __typeof_unqual__, when supported. (And when it

When libperf is built alone in-source, $(OUTPUT) isn't set. This causes
the generated uapi path to resolve to '/../arch' which results in a
permissions error:
mkdir: cannot create directory '/../arch': Permission denied
Fix it by removing the preceding '/..' which means that it gets
generated either in the tools/lib/perf part of the tree or the OUTPUT
folder. Some other rules that rely on OUTPUT further refine this
conditionally depending on whether it's an in-source or out-of-source
build, but I don't think we need the extra complexity here. And this
rule is slightly different to others because the header is needed by
both libperf and Perf. This is further complicated by the fact that Perf
always passes O=... to libperf even for in source builds, meaning that
OUTPUT isn't set consistently between projects.
Because we're no longer going one level up to try to generate the file
in the tools/ folder, Perf's include rule needs to descend into libperf.
Also fix the clean rule while we're here.

issues were observed in deduplication between modules and kernel BTF
such that a large number of kernel types were not deduplicated so
were found in module BTF (task_struct, bpf_prog etc). The root cause
appeared to be a failure to dedup struct types, specifically those
with members that were pointers with __percpu annotations.
The issue in dedup is at the point that we are deduplicating structures,
we have not yet deduplicated reference types like pointers. If multiple
copies of a pointer point at the same (deduplicated) integer as in this
case, we do not see them as identical. Special handling already exists
to deal with structures and arrays, so add pointer handling here too.

This patch fixes a thread safety bug where libbpf_print uses the
global variable storing the print function pointer rather than the local
variable that had the print function set via __atomic_load_n.

It seems that sample_period is not used in perf buffer. Actually, only
wakeup_events are meaningful to enable events aggregation for wakeup notification.
Remove sample_period setting code to avoid confusion.

Since pulling in the kernel changes in commit 22f72088ffe6 ("tools
headers: Update the syscall table with the kernel sources"), arm64 is
no longer using a generic syscall header and generates one from the
syscall table. Therefore we must also generate the syscall header for
arm64 before building Perf.
Add it as a dependency to libperf which uses one syscall number. Perf
uses more, but as libperf is a dependency of Perf it will be generated
for both.
Future platforms that need this will have to add their own syscall-y
targets in libperf manually. Unfortunately the arch specific files that
do this (e.g. arch/arm64/include/asm/Kbuild) can't easily be imported
into the Perf build. But Perf only needs a subset of the generated files
anyway, so redefining them is probably the correct thing to do.

When the binary path is excessively long, the generated probe_name in libbpf
exceeds the kernel's MAX_EVENT_NAME_LEN limit (64 bytes).
This causes legacy uprobe event attachment to fail with error code -22.
The fix reorders the fields to place the unique ID before the name.
This ensures that even if truncation occurs via snprintf, the unique ID
remains intact, preserving event name uniqueness. Additionally, explicit
checks with MAX_EVENT_NAME_LEN are added to enforce length constraints.

A valid ELF file may contain a SHT_NOBITS .BTF section. This case is
not handled correctly in btf_parse_elf, which leads to a segfault.
Before attempting to load BTF section data, check that the section
type is SHT_PROGBITS, which is the expected type for BTF data. Fail
with an error if the type is different.

As shown in [1], it is possible to corrupt a BPF ELF file such that
arbitrary BPF instructions are loaded by libbpf. This can be done by
setting a symbol (BPF program) section offset to a large (unsigned)
number such that <section start + symbol offset> overflows and points
before the section data in the memory.
Consider the situation below where:
- prog_start = sec_start + symbol_offset <-- size_t overflow here
- prog_end = prog_start + prog_size
prog_start sec_start prog_end sec_end

The report in [1] also provides a corrupted BPF ELF which can be used as
a reproducer:
$ readelf -S crash
Section Headers:
[Nr] Name Type Address Offset
Size EntSize Flags Link Info Align
...
[ 2] uretprobe.mu[...] PROGBITS 0000000000000000 00000040
0000000000000068 0000000000000000 AX 0 0 8
$ readelf -s crash
Symbol table '.symtab' contains 8 entries:
Num: Value Size Type Bind Vis Ndx Name
...
6: ffffffffffffffb8 104 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 2 handle_tp
Here, the handle_tp prog has section offset ffffffffffffffb8, i.e. will
point before the actual memory where section 2 is allocated.
This is also reported by AddressSanitizer:

The problem here is that currently, libbpf only checks that the program
end is within the section bounds. There used to be a check
`while (sec_off < sec_sz)` in bpf_object__add_programs, however, it was
removed by commit 6245947c1b3c ("libbpf: Allow gaps in BPF program
sections to support overriden weak functions").
Add a check for detecting the overflow of `sec_off + prog_sz` to
bpf_object__init_prog to fix this issue.

Introducing new libbpf API getters for BTF.ext func and line info,
namely:
bpf_program__func_info
bpf_program__func_info_cnt
bpf_program__line_info
bpf_program__line_info_cnt
This change enables scenarios, when user needs to load bpf_program
directly using `bpf_prog_load`, instead of higher-level
`bpf_object__load`. Line and func info are required for checking BTF
info in verifier; verification may fail without these fields if, for
example, program calls `bpf_obj_new`.
