Jin Yao reported issue with possible conflict between raw events and term values in pmu event syntax. Currently following syntax is resolved as raw event with 0xead value: uncore_imc_free_running/read/ instead of using 'read' term from uncore_imc_free_running pmu, because 'read' is correct raw event syntax with 0xead value. To solve this issue we do following: - check existing terms during rXXXX syntax processing and make them priority in case of conflict - allow pmu/r0x1234/ syntax to be able to specify conflicting raw event (implemented in previous patch) Also add automated tests for this and perf_pmu__parse_cleanup call to parse_events_terms, so the test gets properly cleaned up.

Add support to specify raw event with 'r0<HEX>' syntax within pmu term syntax like: -e cpu/r0xdead/ It will be used to specify raw events in cases where they conflict with real pmu terms, like 'read', which is valid raw event syntax, but also a possible pmu term name as reported by Jin Yao.

- auxtrace_record__init() is called only once, so there is no point in using a static variable to cache the results of find_all_arm_spe_pmus(), make it local and free the results after use. - Another reason is, even though SPE is micro-architecture dependent, but so far it only supports "statistical-profiling-extension-v1" and we have no chance to use multiple SPE's PMU events in Perf command. So remove the useless check code to make it clear. Signed-off-by:

When recording with cache-misses and arm_spe_x event, I found that it will just fail without showing any error info if i put cache-misses after 'arm_spe_x' event. [root@localhost 0620]# perf record -e cache-misses \ -e arm_spe_0/ts_enable=1,pct_enable=1,pa_enable=1,load_filter=1,jitter=1,store_filter=1,min_latency=0/ sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.067 MB perf.data ] [root@localhost 0620]# [root@localhost 0620]# perf record -e arm_spe_0/ts_enable=1,pct_enable=1,pa_enable=1,load_filter=1,jitter=1,store_filter=1,min_latency=0/ \ -e cache-misses sleep 1 [root@localhost 0620]# The current code can only work if the only event to be traced is an 'arm_spe_x', or if it is the last event to be specified. Otherwise the last event type will be checked against all the arm_spe_pmus[i]->types, none will match and an out of bound 'i' index will be used in arm_spe_recording_init(). We don't support concurrent multiple arm_spe_x events currently, that is checked in arm_spe_recording_options(), and it will show the relevant info. So add the check and record of the first found 'arm_spe_pmu' to fix this issue here. Fixes: ffd3d18c ("perf tools: Add ARM Statistical Profiling Extensions (SPE) support") Signed-off-by:

The usefulness of having a standard way of testing syscall performance has come up from time to time[0]. Furthermore, some of our testing machinery (such as 'mmtests') already makes use of a simplified version of the microbenchmark. This patch mainly takes the same idea to measure syscall throughput compatible with 'perf-bench' via getppid(2), yet without any of the additional template stuff from Ingo's version (based on numa.c). The code is identical to what mmtests uses. [0] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20160201074156.GA27156@gmail.com/ Committer notes: Add mising stdlib.h and unistd.h to get the prototypes for exit() and getppid().

Warn if the probe target function is a GNU indirect function (GNU_IFUNC) because it may not be what the user wants to probe. The GNU indirect function ( https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/GNU_IFUNC ) is the dynamic symbol solved at runtime. An IFUNC function is a selector which is invoked from the ELF loader, but the symbol address of the function which will be modified by the IFUNC is the same as the IFUNC in the symbol table. This can confuse users trying to probe such functions. For example, memcpy is an IFUNC. probe_libc:memcpy (on __new_memcpy_ifunc@x86_64/multiarch/memcpy.c in /usr/lib64/libc-2.30.so) the probe is put on an IFUNC. perf 1742 [000] 26201.715632: probe_libc:memcpy: (7fdaa53824c0) 7fdaa53824c0 __new_memcpy_ifunc+0x0 (inlined) 7fdaa5d4a980 elf_machine_rela+0x6c0 (inlined) 7fdaa5d4a980 elf_dynamic_do_Rela+0x6c0 (inlined) 7fdaa5d4a980 _dl_relocate_object+0x6c0 (/usr/lib64/ld-2.30.so) 7fdaa5d42155 dl_main+0x1cc5 (/usr/lib64/ld-2.30.so) 7fdaa5d5831a _dl_sysdep_start+0x54a (/usr/lib64/ld-2.30.so) 7fdaa5d3ffeb _dl_start_final+0x25b (inlined) 7fdaa5d3ffeb _dl_start+0x25b (/usr/lib64/ld-2.30.so) 7fdaa5d3f117 .annobin_rtld.c+0x7 (inlined) And the event is invoked from the ELF loader instead of the target program's main code. Moreover, at this moment, we can not probe on the function which will be selected by the IFUNC, because it is determined at runtime. But uprobe will be prepared before running the target binary. Thus, I decided to warn user when 'perf probe' detects that the probe point is on an GNU IFUNC symbol. Someone who wants to probe an IFUNC symbol to debug the IFUNC function can ignore this warning. Committer notes: I.e., this warning will be emitted if the probe point is an IFUNC: "Warning: The probe function (%s) is a GNU indirect function.\n" "Consider identifying the final function used at run time and set the probe directly on that.\n" Complete set of steps: # readelf -sW /lib64/libc-2.29.so | grep IFUNC | tail 22196: 0000000000109a80 183 IFUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 14 __memcpy_chk 22214: 00000000000b7d90 191 IFUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 14 __gettimeofday 22336: 000000000008b690 60 IFUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 14 memchr 22350: 000000000008b9b0 89 IFUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 14 __stpcpy 22420: 000000000008bb10 76 IFUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 14 __strcasecmp_l 22582: 000000000008a970 60 IFUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 14 strlen 22585: 00000000000a54d0 92 IFUNC WEAK DEFAULT 14 wmemset 22600: 000000000010b030 92 IFUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 14 __wmemset_chk 22618: 000000000008b8a0 183 IFUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 14 __mempcpy 22675: 000000000008ba70 76 IFUNC WEAK DEFAULT 14 strcasecmp # # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.29.so strlen Warning: The probe function (strlen) is a GNU indirect function.

Fix the memory leakage in debuginfo__find_trace_events() when the probe point is not found in the debuginfo. If there is no probe point found in the debuginfo, debuginfo__find_probes() will NOT return -ENOENT, but 0. Thus the caller of debuginfo__find_probes() must check the tf.ntevs and release the allocated memory for the array of struct probe_trace_event. The current code releases the memory only if the debuginfo__find_probes() hits an error but not checks tf.ntevs. In the result, the memory allocated on *tevs are not released if tf.ntevs == 0. This fixes the memory leakage by checking tf.ntevs == 0 in addition to ret < 0. Fixes: ff741783 ("perf probe: Introduce debuginfo to encapsulate dwarf information") Signed-off-by:

Fix a wrong "variable not found" warning when the probe point is not found in the debuginfo. Since the debuginfo__find_probes() can return 0 even if it does not find given probe point in the debuginfo, fill_empty_trace_arg() can be called with tf.ntevs == 0 and it can emit a wrong warning. To fix this, reject ntevs == 0 in fill_empty_trace_arg(). E.g. without this patch; # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.30.so -a "memcpy arg1=%di" Failed to find the location of the '%di' variable at this address. Perhaps it has been optimized out.

PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL_TYPE_OOL marks an executable page. Create a map backed only by memory, which will be populated as necessary by text poke events. Committer notes: From the patch: OOL stands for "Out of line" code such as kprobe-replaced instructions or optimized kprobes or ftrace trampolines. Signed-off-by:

Our local MSAN (Memory Sanitizer) build of perf throws a warning that comes from the "dso__disassemble_filename" function in "tools/perf/util/annotate.c" when running perf record. The warning stems from the call to readlink, in which "build_id_path" was being read into "linkname". Since readlink does not null terminate, an uninitialized memory access would later occur when "linkname" is passed into the strstr function. This is simply fixed by null-terminating "linkname" after the call to readlink. To reproduce this warning, build perf by running: $ make -C tools/perf CLANG=1 CC=clang EXTRA_CFLAGS="-fsanitize=memory -fsanitize-memory-track-origins" (Additionally, llvm might have to be installed and clang might have to be specified as the compiler - export CC=/usr/bin/clang) Then running: tools/perf/perf record -o - ls / | tools/perf/perf --no-pager annotate -i - --stdio Please see the cover letter for why false positive warnings may be generated.

**perf-<pid>.map and jit-<pid>.dump designs: When a JIT generates code to be executed, it must allocate memory and mark it executable using an mmap call. *** perf-<pid>.map design The perf-<pid>.map assumes that any sample recorded in an anonymous memory page is JIT code. It then tries to resolve the symbol name by looking at the process' perf-<pid>.map. *** jit-<pid>.dump design The jit-<pid>.dump mechanism takes a different approach. It requires a JIT to write a `<path>/jit-<pid>.dump` file. This file must also be mmapped so that perf inject -jit can find the file. The JIT must also add JIT_CODE_LOAD records for any functions it generates. The records are timestamped using a clock which can be correlated to the perf record clock. After perf record, the `perf inject -jit` pass parses the recording looking for a `<path>/jit-<pid>.dump` file. When it finds the file, it parses it and for each JIT_CODE_LOAD record: * creates an elf file `<path>/jitted-<pid>-<code_index>.so * injects a new mmap record mapping the new elf file into the process. *** Coexistence design The kernel and perf support both of these mechanisms. We need to make sure perf works on an app supporting either or both of these mechanisms. Both designs rely on mmap records to determine how to resolve an ip address. The mmap records of both techniques by definition overlap. When the JIT compiles a method, it must: * allocate memory (mmap) * add execution privilege (mprotect or mmap. either will generate an mmap event form the kernel to perf) * compile code into memory * add a function record to perf-<pid>.map and/or jit-<pid>.dump Because the jit-<pid>.dump mechanism supports greater capabilities, perf prefers the symbols from jit-<pid>.dump. It implements this based on timestamp ordering of events. There is an implicit ASSUMPTION that the JIT_CODE_LOAD record timestamp will be after the // anon mmap event that was generated during memory allocation or adding the execution privilege setting. *** Problems with the ASSUMPTION The ASSUMPTION made in the Coexistence design section above is violated in the following scenario. *** Scenario While a JIT is jitting code it will eventually need to commit more pages and change these pages to executable permissions. Typically the JIT will want these collocated to minimize branch displacements. The kernel will coalesce these anonymous mapping with identical permissions before sending an MMAP event for the new pages. The address range of the new mmap will not be just the most recently mmap pages. It will include the entire coalesced mmap region. See mm/mmap.c unsigned long mmap_region(struct file *file, unsigned long addr, unsigned long len, vm_flags_t vm_flags, unsigned long pgoff, struct list_head *uf) { ... /* * Can we just expand an old mapping? */ ... perf_event_mmap(vma); ... } *** Symptoms The coalesced // anon mmap event will be timestamped after the JIT_CODE_LOAD records. This means it will be used as the most recent mapping for that entire address range. For remaining events it will look at the inferior perf-<pid>.map for symbols. If both mechanisms are supported, the symbol will appear twice with different module names. This causes weird behavior in reporting. If only jit-<pid>.dump is supported, the symbol will no longer be resolved. ** Implemented solution This patch solves the issue by removing // anon mmap events for any process which has a valid jit-<pid>.dump file. It tracks on a per process basis to handle the case where some running apps support jit-<pid>.dump, but some only support perf-<pid>.map. It adds new assumptions: * // anon mmap events are only required for perf-<pid>.map support. * An app that uses jit-<pid>.dump, no longer needs perf-<pid>.map support. It assumes that any perf-<pid>.map info is inferior. *** Details Use thread->priv to store whether a jitdump file has been processed During "perf inject --jit", discard "//anon*" mmap events for any pid which has sucessfully processed a jitdump file. ** Testing: // jitdump case perf record <app with jitdump> perf inject --jit --input perf.data --output perfjit.data // verify mmap "//anon" events present initially perf script --input perf.data --show-mmap-events | grep '//anon' // verify mmap "//anon" events removed perf script --input perfjit.data --show-mmap-events | grep '//anon' // no jitdump case perf record <app without jitdump> perf inject --jit --input perf.data --output perfjit.data // verify mmap "//anon" events present initially perf script --input perf.data --show-mmap-events | grep '//anon' // verify mmap "//anon" events not removed perf script --input perfjit.data --show-mmap-events | grep '//anon' ** Repro: This issue was discovered while testing the initial CoreCLR jitdump implementation. https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/pull/26897. ** Alternate solutions considered These were also briefly considered: * Change kernel to not coalesce mmap regions. * Change kernel reporting of coalesced mmap regions to perf. Only include newly mapped memory. * Only strip parts of // anon mmap events overlapping existing jitted-<pid>-<code_index>.so mmap events.
