2017-07-19perf buildid-cache: Support binary objects from other namespacesKrister Johansen1-1/+1
Teach buildid-cache how to add, remove, and update binary objects from other mount namespaces. Allow probe events tracing binaries in different namespaces to add their objects to the probe and build-id caches too. As a handy side effect, this also lets us access SDT probes in binaries from alternate mount namespaces.

2017-07-19perf probe: Allow placing uprobes in alternate namespaces.Krister Johansen1-4/+39
Teaches perf how to place a uprobe on a file that's in a different mount namespace. The user must add the probe using the --target-ns argument to perf probe. Once it has been placed, it may be recorded against without further namespace-specific commands.

2017-03-21perf probe: Return errno when not hitting any eventKefeng Wang1-3/+3
On old perf, when using 'perf probe -d' to delete an inexistent event, it returns errno, eg, -bash-4.3# perf probe -d xxx || echo $? Info: Event "*:xxx" does not exist. Error: Failed to delete events. 255 But now perf_del_probe_events() will always set ret = 0, different from previous del_perf_probe_events(). After this, it returns errno again, eg, -bash-4.3# ./perf probe -d xxx || echo $? "xxx" does not hit any event. Error: Failed to delete events. 254 And it is more appropriate to return -ENOENT instead of -EPERM.

2016-07-12tools: Introduce str_error_r()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-1/+1
The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else. But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine Linux, where musl libc is used. So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is returned.

2016-07-01perf probe: Remove caches when --cache is givenMasami Hiramatsu1-0/+29
'perf probe --del' removes caches when '--cache' is given. Note that the delete pattern is not the same as for normal events. If you cached probes with event name, --del "eventname" works as expected. However, if you skipped it, the cached probes doesn't have actual event name. In that case --del "probe-desc" is required (wildcard is acceptable). For example a cache entry has the probe-desc "vfs_read $params", you can remove it with --del 'vfs_read*'. ----- # perf probe --cache --list /[kernel.kallsyms] (1466a0a250b5d0070c6d0f03c5fed30b237970a1): vfs_read $params /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so (c31ffe7942bfd77b2fca8f9bd5709d387a86d3bc): getaddrinfo $params # perf probe --cache --del vfs_read\* Removed cached event: probe:vfs_read # perf probe --cache --list /[kernel.kallsyms] (1466a0a250b5d0070c6d0f03c5fed30b237970a1): /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so (c31ffe7942bfd77b2fca8f9bd5709d387a86d3bc): getaddrinfo $params ----- Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Brendan Gregg <brendan.d.gregg@gmail.com> Cc: Hemant Kumar <hemant@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/146736021651.27797.10250879847070772920.stgit@devbox Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2015-12-14perf tools: Make options always available, even if required libs not linkedWang Nan1-2/+13
This patch keeps options of perf builtins same in all conditions. If one option is disabled because of compiling options, users should be notified. Masami suggested another implementation in [1] that, by adding a OPTION_NEXT_DEPENDS option before those options in the 'struct option' array, options parser knows an option is disabled. However, in some cases this array is reordered (options__order()). In addition, in parse-option.c that array is const, so we can't simply merge information in decorator option into the affacted option. This patch chooses a simpler implementation that, introducing a set_option_nobuild() function and two option parsing flags. Builtins with such options should call set_option_nobuild() before option parsing. The complexity of this patch is because we want some of options can be skipped safely. In this case their arguments should also be consumed. Options in 'perf record' and 'perf probe' are fixed in this patch.

Also it combines the output if more than one event is added. Before: $ sudo perf probe -a do_fork -a do_exit Added new event: probe:do_fork (on do_fork) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:do_fork -aR sleep 1 Added new events: probe:do_exit (on do_exit) probe:do_exit_1 (on do_exit) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:do_exit_1 -aR sleep 1 After: $ sudo perf probe -a do_fork -a do_exit Added new events: probe:do_fork (on do_fork) probe:do_exit (on do_exit) probe:do_exit_1 (on do_exit) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:do_exit_1 -aR sleep 1 Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Cc: pi3orama@163.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1441368963-11565-3-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2015-05-12perf probe: Add --range option to show a variable's location rangeHe Kuang1-0/+2
It is not easy for users to get the accurate byte offset or the line number where a local variable can be probed. With '--range' option, local variables in the scope of the probe point are showed with a byte offset range, and can be added according to this range information. For example, there are some variables in the function generic_perform_write(): <generic_perform_write@mm/filemap.c:0> 0 ssize_t generic_perform_write(struct file *file, 1 struct iov_iter *i, loff_t pos) 2 { 3 struct address_space *mapping = file->f_mapping; 4 const struct address_space_operations *a_ops = mapping->a_ops; ... 42 status = a_ops->write_begin(file, mapping, pos, bytes, flags, &page, &fsdata); 44 if (unlikely(status < 0)) But we fail when we try to probe the variable 'a_ops' at line 42 or 44. $ perf probe --add 'generic_perform_write:42 a_ops' Failed to find the location of a_ops at this address. Perhaps, it has been optimized out. This is because the source code do not match the assembly, so a variable may not be available in the source code line where it appears. After this patch, we can lookup the accurate byte offset range of a variable, 'INV' indicates that this variable is not valid at the given point, but available in the scope: $ perf probe --vars 'generic_perform_write:42' --range Available variables at generic_perform_write:42 @<generic_perform_write+141> [INV] ssize_t written @<generic_perform_write+[324-331]> [INV] struct address_space_operations* a_ops @<generic_perform_write+[55-61,170-176,223-246]> [VAL] (unknown_type) fsdata @<generic_perform_write+[70-307,346-411]> [VAL] loff_t pos @<generic_perform_write+[0-286,286-336,346-411]> [VAL] long int status @<generic_perform_write+[83-342,346-411]> [VAL] long unsigned int bytes @<generic_perform_write+[122-311,320-338,346-403,403-411]> [VAL] struct address_space* mapping @<generic_perform_write+[35-344,346-411]> [VAL] struct iov_iter* i @<generic_perform_write+[0-340,346-411]> [VAL] struct page* page @<generic_perform_write+[70-307,346-411]> Then it is more clear for us to add a probe with this variable: $ perf probe --add 'generic_perform_write+170 a_ops' Added new event: probe:generic_perform_write (on generic_perform_write+170 with a_ops) Signed-off-by: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1431336304-16863-2-git-send-email-hekuang@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2014-01-16perf probe: Release all dynamically allocated parametersMasami Hiramatsu1-5/+43
To fix a memory leak, release all dynamically allocated options/parameters in params data structure. This also introduces/exports some init/clear routines.

2013-12-26perf probe: Support basic dwarf-based operations on uprobe eventsMasami Hiramatsu1-1/+1
Support basic dwarf(debuginfo) based operations for uprobe events. With this change, perf probe can analyze debuginfo of user application binary to set up new uprobe event. This allows perf-probe --add(with local variables, line numbers) and --line works with -x option. (Actually, --vars has already accepted -x option) For example, the following command shows the probe-able lines of a given user space function. Something that so far was only available in the 'perf probe' tool for kernel space functions: # ./perf probe -x perf --line map__load <map__load@/home/fedora/ksrc/linux-2.6/tools/perf/util/map.c:0> 0 int map__load(struct map *map, symbol_filter_t filter) 1 { 2 const char *name = map->dso->long_name; int nr; 5 if (dso__loaded(map->dso, map->type)) 6 return 0; 8 nr = dso__load(map->dso, map, filter); 9 if (nr < 0) { 10 if (map->dso->has_build_id) { And this shows the available variables at the given line of the function. # ./perf probe -x perf --vars map__load:8 Available variables at map__load:8 @<map__load+96> char* name struct map* map symbol_filter_t filter @<map__find_symbol+112> char* name symbol_filter_t filter @<map__find_symbol_by_name+136> char* name symbol_filter_t filter @<map_groups__find_symbol_by_name+176> char* name struct map* map symbol_filter_t filter And lastly, we can now define probe(s) with all available variables on the given line: # ./perf probe -x perf --add 'map__load:8 $vars' Added new events: probe_perf:map__load (on map__load:8 with $vars) probe_perf:map__load_1 (on map__load:8 with $vars) probe_perf:map__load_2 (on map__load:8 with $vars) probe_perf:map__load_3 (on map__load:8 with $vars) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe_perf:map__load_3 -aR sleep 1 Changes from previous version: - Add examples in the patch description. - Use .text section start address and dwarf symbol address for calculating the offset of given symbol, instead of searching the symbol in symtab again. With this change, we can safely handle multiple local function instances (e.g. scnprintf in perf).
