libperf evlist: Fix per-thread mmaps for multi-threaded targets
The offending commit removed mmap_per_thread(), which did not consider the different set-output rules for per-thread mmaps i.e. in the per-thread case set-output is used for file descriptors of the same thread not the same cpu. This was not immediately noticed because it only happens with multi-threaded targets and we do not have a test for that yet. Reinstate mmap_per_thread() expanding it to cover also system-wide per-cpu events i.e. to continue to allow the mixing of per-thread and per-cpu mmaps. Debug messages (with -vv) show the file descriptors that are opened with sys_perf_event_open. New debug messages are added (needs -vvv) that show also which file descriptors are mmapped and which are redirected with set-output. In the per-cpu case (cpu != -1) file descriptors for the same CPU are set-output to the first file descriptor for that CPU. In the per-thread case (cpu == -1) file descriptors for the same thread are set-output to the first file descriptor for that thread. Example (process 17489 has 2 threads): Before (but with new debug prints): $ perf record --no-bpf-event -vvv --per-thread -p 17489 <SNIP> sys_perf_event_open: pid 17489 cpu -1 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 5 sys_perf_event_open: pid 17490 cpu -1 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 6 <SNIP> libperf: idx 0: mmapping fd 5 libperf: idx 0: set output fd 6 -> 5 failed to mmap with 22 (Invalid argument) After: $ perf record --no-bpf-event -vvv --per-thread -p 17489 <SNIP> sys_perf_event_open: pid 17489 cpu -1 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 5 sys_perf_event_open: pid 17490 cpu -1 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 6 <SNIP> libperf: mmap_per_thread: nr cpu values (may include -1) 1 nr threads 2 libperf: idx 0: mmapping fd 5 libperf: idx 1: mmapping fd 6 <SNIP> [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.018 MB perf.data (15 samples) ] Per-cpu example (process 20341 has 2 threads, same as above): $ perf record --no-bpf-event -vvv -p 20341 <SNIP> sys_perf_event_open: pid 20341 cpu 0 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 5 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20342 cpu 0 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 6 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20341 cpu 1 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 7 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20342 cpu 1 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 8 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20341 cpu 2 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 9 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20342 cpu 2 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 10 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20341 cpu 3 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 11 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20342 cpu 3 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 12 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20341 cpu 4 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 13 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20342 cpu 4 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 14 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20341 cpu 5 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 15 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20342 cpu 5 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 16 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20341 cpu 6 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 17 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20342 cpu 6 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 18 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20341 cpu 7 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 19 sys_perf_event_open: pid 20342 cpu 7 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 20 <SNIP> libperf: mmap_per_cpu: nr cpu values 8 nr threads 2 libperf: idx 0: mmapping fd 5 libperf: idx 0: set output fd 6 -> 5 libperf: idx 1: mmapping fd 7 libperf: idx 1: set output fd 8 -> 7 libperf: idx 2: mmapping fd 9 libperf: idx 2: set output fd 10 -> 9 libperf: idx 3: mmapping fd 11 libperf: idx 3: set output fd 12 -> 11 libperf: idx 4: mmapping fd 13 libperf: idx 4: set output fd 14 -> 13 libperf: idx 5: mmapping fd 15 libperf: idx 5: set output fd 16 -> 15 libperf: idx 6: mmapping fd 17 libperf: idx 6: set output fd 18 -> 17 libperf: idx 7: mmapping fd 19 libperf: idx 7: set output fd 20 -> 19 <SNIP> [ perf record: Woken up 7 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.020 MB perf.data (17 samples) ] Fixes: ae4f8ae16a078964 ("libperf evlist: Allow mixing per-thread and per-cpu mmaps") Reported-by: Tomáš Trnka <trnka@scm.com> Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216441 Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220905114209.8389-1-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
