2016-05-12perf tools: Use readdir() instead of deprecated readdir_r()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-30/+30
The readdir() function is thread safe as long as just one thread uses a DIR, which is the case when parsing tracepoint event definitions, to avoid breaking the build with glibc-2.23.90 (upcoming 2.24), use it instead of readdir_r(). See: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/readdir.3.html "However, in modern implementations (including the glibc implementation), concurrent calls to readdir() that specify different directory streams are thread-safe. In cases where multiple threads must read from the same directory stream, using readdir() with external synchronization is still preferable to the use of the deprecated readdir_r(3) function." Noticed while building on a Fedora Rawhide docker container.

2016-02-22perf tools: Support setting different slots in a BPF map separatelyWang Nan1-0/+7
This patch introduces basic facilities to support config different slots in a BPF map one by one. array.nr_ranges and array.ranges are introduced into 'struct parse_events_term', where ranges is an array of indices range (start, length) which will be configured by this config term. nr_ranges is the size of the array. The array is passed to 'struct bpf_map_priv'. To indicate the new type of configuration, BPF_MAP_KEY_RANGES is added as a new key type. bpf_map_config_foreach_key() is extended to iterate over those indices instead of all possible keys. Code in this commit will be enabled by following commit which enables the indices syntax for array configuration.

2016-02-20perf stat: Bail out on unsupported event config modifiersWang Nan1-0/+48
'perf stat' accepts some config terms but doesn't apply them. For example: # perf stat -e 'instructions/no-inherit/' -e 'instructions/inherit/' bash # ls # exit Performance counter stats for 'bash': 266258061 instructions/no-inherit/ 266258061 instructions/inherit/ 1.402183915 seconds time elapsed The result is confusing, because user may expect the first 'instructions' event exclude the 'ls' command. This patch forbid most of these config terms for 'perf stat'. Result: # ./perf stat -e 'instructions/no-inherit/' -e 'instructions/inherit/' bash event syntax error: 'instructions/no-inherit/' \___ 'no-inherit' is not usable in 'perf stat' ... We can add blocked config terms back when 'perf stat' really supports them.

2015-11-06perf bpf: Improve BPF related error messagesWang Nan1-3/+4
A series of bpf loader related error codes were introduced to help error reporting. Functions were improved to return these new error codes. Functions which return pointers were adjusted to encode error codes into return value using the ERR_PTR() interface. bpf_loader_strerror() was improved to convert these error messages to strings. It checks the error codes and calls libbpf_strerror() and strerror_r() accordingly, so caller don't need to consider checking the range of the error code. In bpf__strerror_load(), print kernel version of running kernel and the object's 'version' section to notify user how to fix his/her program. v1 -> v2: Use macro for error code.

2015-11-06bpf tools: Improve libbpf error reportingWang Nan1-2/+2
In this patch, a series of libbpf specific error numbers and libbpf_strerror() are introduced to help reporting errors. Functions are updated to pass correct the error number through the CHECK_ERR() macro. All users of bpf_object__open{_buffer}() and bpf_program__title() in perf are modified accordingly. In addition, due to the error codes changing, bpf__strerror_load() is also modified to use them. bpf__strerror_head() is also changed accordingly so it can parse libbpf errors. bpf_loader_strerror() is introduced for that purpose, and will be improved by the following patch. load_program() is improved not to dump log buffer if it is empty. log buffer is also used to deduce whether the error was caused by an invalid program or other problem. v1 -> v2: - Using macro for error code. - Fetch error message based on array index, eliminate for-loop. - Use log buffer to detect the reason of failure. 3 new error code are introduced to replace LIBBPF_ERRNO__LOAD.

This patch provides infrastructure for passing source files to --event directly using: # perf record --event bpf-file.c command This patch does following works: 1) Allow passing '.c' file to '--event'. parse_events_load_bpf() is expanded to allow caller tell it whether the passed file is source file or object. 2) llvm__compile_bpf() is called to compile the '.c' file, the result is saved into memory. Use bpf_object__open_buffer() to load the in-memory object. Introduces a bpf-script-example.c so we can manually test it: # perf record --clang-opt "-DLINUX_VERSION_CODE=0x40200" --event ./bpf-script-example.c sleep 1 Note that '--clang-opt' must put before '--event'.

2015-10-29perf bpf: Attach eBPF filter to perf eventWang Nan1-0/+6
This is the final patch which makes basic BPF filter work. After applying this patch, users are allowed to use BPF filter like: # perf record --event ./hello_world.o ls A bpf_fd field is appended to 'struct evsel', and setup during the callback function add_bpf_event() for each 'probe_trace_event'. PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF ioctl is used to attach eBPF program to a newly created perf event. The file descriptor of the eBPF program is passed to perf record using previous patches, and stored into evsel->bpf_fd. It is possible that different perf event are created for one kprobe events for different CPUs. In this case, when trying to call the ioctl, EEXIST will be return. This patch doesn't treat it as an error. Committer note: The bpf proggie used so far: __attribute__((section("fork=_do_fork"), used)) int fork(void *ctx) { return 0; } char _license[] __attribute__((section("license"), used)) = "GPL"; int _version __attribute__((section("version"), used)) = 0x40300; failed to produce any samples, even with forks happening and it being running in system wide mode. That is because now the filter is being associated, and the code above always returns zero, meaning that all forks will be probed but filtered away ;-/ Change it to 'return 1;' instead and after that: # trace --no-syscalls --event /tmp/foo.o 0.000 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) 2.333 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) 3.725 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) 4.550 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) ^C# And it works with all tools, including 'perf trace'.

2015-10-28perf bpf: Collect perf_evsel in BPF object filesWang Nan1-7/+45
This patch creates a 'struct perf_evsel' for every probe in a BPF object file(s) and fills 'struct evlist' with them. The previously introduced dummy event is now removed. After this patch, the following command: # perf record --event filter.o ls Can trace on each of the probes defined in filter.o. The core of this patch is bpf__foreach_tev(), which calls a callback function for each 'struct probe_trace_event' event for a bpf program with each associated file descriptors. The add_bpf_event() callback creates evsels by calling parse_events_add_tracepoint(). Since bpf-loader.c will not be built if libbpf is turned off, an empty bpf__foreach_tev() is defined in bpf-loader.h to avoid build errors.

2015-10-28perf tools: Create probe points for BPF programsWang Nan1-0/+17
This patch introduces bpf__{un,}probe() functions to enable callers to create kprobe points based on section names a BPF program. It parses the section names in the program and creates corresponding 'struct perf_probe_event' structures. The parse_perf_probe_command() function is used to do the main parsing work. The resuling 'struct perf_probe_event' is stored into program private data for further using. By utilizing the new probing API, this patch creates probe points during event parsing. To ensure probe points be removed correctly, register an atexit hook so even perf quit through exit() bpf__clear() is still called, so probing points are cleared. Note that bpf_clear() should be registered before bpf__probe() is called, so failure of bpf__probe() can still trigger bpf__clear() to remove probe points which are already probed. strerror style error reporting scaffold is created by this patch. bpf__strerror_probe() is the first error reporting function in bpf-loader.c.

2015-10-28perf tools: Enable passing bpf object file to --eventWang Nan1-0/+57
By introducing new rules in tools/perf/util/parse-events.[ly], this patch enables 'perf record --event bpf_file.o' to select events by an eBPF object file. It calls parse_events_load_bpf() to load that file, which uses bpf__prepare_load() and finally calls bpf_object__open() for the object files. After applying this patch, commands like: # perf record --event foo.o sleep become possible. However, at this point it is unable to link any useful things onto the evsel list because the creating of probe points and BPF program attaching have not been implemented. Before real events are possible to be extracted, to avoid perf report error because of empty evsel list, this patch link a dummy evsel. The dummy event related code will be removed when probing and extracting code is ready.

2015-10-28perf tools: Enable pre-event inherit setting by config termsWang Nan1-0/+14
This patch allows perf record setting event's attr.inherit bit by config terms like: # perf record -e cycles/no-inherit/ ... # perf record -e cycles/inherit/ ... So user can control inherit bit for each event separately. In following example, a.out fork()s in main then do some complex CPU intensive computations in both of its children. Basic result with and without inherit: # perf record -e cycles -e instructions ./a.out [ perf record: Woken up 9 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.205 MB perf.data (47920 samples) ] # perf report --stdio # ... # Samples: 23K of event 'cycles' # Event count (approx.): 23641752891 ... # Samples: 24K of event 'instructions' # Event count (approx.): 30428312415 # perf record -i -e cycles -e instructions ./a.out [ perf record: Woken up 5 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.111 MB perf.data (24019 samples) ] ... #
