      tools build: Add capability-related feature detection · 74d5f3d0
      Igor Lubashev authored
      Add utilities to help checking capabilities of the running procss.  Make
      perf link with libcap, if it is available. If no libcap-dev[el], assume
      no capabilities.

      perf top: Collapse and resort all evsels in a group · 40d81772
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      And link them, i.e. find the hist entries in the non-leader events and
      link them to the ones in the leader.
      
      This should be the same thing already done for the 'perf report' case,
      but now we do it periodically.
      
      With this in place we get percentages in from the second overhead column
      on, not just on the first (the leader).
      
      Try it using:
      
        perf top --stdio -e '{cycles,instructions}'
      
      You should see something like:

      perf hist: Remove dummy entries when finding real ones. · 5f8b4d5d
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      When he have an event group we have multiple struct hist instances, one
      per evsel, and in each of these hists we may have hist_entries that
      point to the same thing being observed, say a symbol, i.e. if we're
      looking at instructions and cycles, then we'll have one hist_entry in
      the "instructions" evsel and another in the "cycles" evsel.
      
      We need to link those to then show one column for each. When we're
      looking at some other pair of events, say instructions and cache misses,
      we may have just the "instructions" hist entry and not one for "cache
      misses", as instructions not necessarily generate cache misses, as the
      logic expects one hist_entry per evsel, we end up adding "dummy"
      hist_entries.
      
      This is enough for 'perf report', that does this matching operation
      (hists__match()) just once after processing all events, but for 'perf
      top', we do this at each refresh, so we may finally find events matching
      and then we need to trow away the dummies and link with the real events.
      
      So if we find a match, traverse the link of matches and trow away
      dummies for that hists.

      perf trace: Fix segmentation fault when access syscall info on arm64 · 3e70008a
      Leo Yan authored
      'perf trace' reports the segmentation fault as below on Arm64:
      
        # perf trace -e string -e augmented_raw_syscalls.c
        LLVM: dumping tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o

        perf(+0x57723) [0xaaaaac8a1723]
        Segmentation fault
      
      This issue is introduced by commit 30a910d7 ("perf trace:
      Preallocate the syscall table"), it allocates trace->syscalls.table[]
      array and the element count is 'trace->sctbl->syscalls.nr_entries'; but
      on Arm64, the system call number is not continuously used; e.g. the
      syscall maximum id is 436 but the real entries is only 281.
      
      So the table is allocated with 'nr_entries' as the element count, but it
      accesses the table with the syscall id, which might be out of the bound
      of the array and cause the segmentation fault.
      
      This patch allocates trace->syscalls.table[] with the element count is
      'trace->sctbl->syscalls.max_id + 1', this allows any id to access the
      table without out of the bound.

      perf hists: Do not link a pair if already linked · 7d1a5efa
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      When we have multiple events in a group we link hist_entries in the
      non-leader evsel hists to the one in the leader that points to the same
      sorting criteria, in hists__match().
      
      For 'perf report' we do this just once and then print the results, but
      for 'perf top' we need to look if this was already done in the previous
      refresh of the screen, so check for that and don't try to link again.
      
      This is part of having 'perf top' using the hists browser for showing
      multiple events in multiple columns.

      getenv("PERF_CONFIG") call to set it, as this was fixed in the previous
      cset, document that it can be used to ask for using an alternative
      .perfconfig file or to disable reading whatever file exists in the

        export PERF_CONFIG=/dev/null

      perf config: Honour $PERF_CONFIG env var to specify alternate .perfconfig · 61a461fc
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      We had this comment in Documentation/perf_counter/config.c, i.e. since
      when we got this from the git sources, but never really did that
      getenv("PERF_CONFIG"), do it now as I need to disable whatever
      ~/.perfconfig root has so that tests parsing tool output are done for
      the expected default output or that we specify an alternate config file
      that when read will make the tools produce expected output.

      perf session: Avoid infinite loop when seeing invalid header.size · 57fc032a
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Vince reported that when fuzzing the userland perf tool with a bogus
      perf.data file he got into a infinite loop in 'perf report'.
      
      Changing the return of fetch_mmaped_event() to ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) for that
      case gets us out of that infinite loop.

      Merge remote-tracking branch 'torvalds/master' into perf/core · 272172bd
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      To get closer to upstream and check if we need to sync more UAPI
      headers, pick up fixes for libbpf that prevent perf's container tests
      from completing successfuly, etc.
