      perf tools: Add Python 3 support · 66dfdff0
      Jaroslav Škarvada authored 
      Added Python 3 support while keeping Python 2.7 compatibility.

Committer notes:

This doesn't make it to auto detect python 3, one has to explicitely ask
it to build with python 3 devel files, here are the instructions
provided by Jaroslav:

 ---
  $ cp -a tools/perf tools/python3-perf
  $ make V=1 prefix=/usr -C tools/perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 all
  $ make V=1 prefix=/usr -C tools/python3-perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 all
  $ make V=1 prefix=/usr -C tools/python3-perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 DESTDIR=%{buildroot} install-python_ext
  $ make V=1 prefix=/usr -C tools/perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 DESTDIR=%{buildroot} install-python_ext
 ---

We need to make this automatic, just like the existing tests for checking if
the python2 devel files are in place, allowing the build with python3 if
available, fallbacking to python2 and then just disabling it if none are
available.

So, using the PYTHON variable to build it using O= we get:

Before this patch:

  $ rpm -q python3 python3-devel
  python3-3.6.4-7.fc27.x86_64
  python3-devel-3.6.4-7.fc27.x86_64
  $ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf/ ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ; make O=/tmp/build/perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 -C tools/perf install-bin
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
  <SNIP>
  Makefile.config:670: Python 3 is not yet supported; please set
  Makefile.config:671: PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG appropriately.
  Makefile.config:672: If you also have Python 2 installed, then
  Makefile.config:673: try something like:
  Makefile.config:674:
  Makefile.config:675:   make PYTHON=python2
  Makefile.config:676:
  Makefile.config:677: Otherwise, disable Python support entirely:
  Makefile.config:678:
  Makefile.config:679:   make NO_LIBPYTHON=1
  Makefile.config:680:
  Makefile.config:681: *** .  Stop.
  make[1]: *** [Makefile.perf:212: sub-make] Error 2
  make: *** [Makefile:110: install-bin] Error 2
  make: Leaving directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
  $

After:

  $ make O=/tmp/build/perf PYTHON=python3 -C tools/perf install-bin
  $ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep python
	libpython3.6m.so.1.0 => /lib64/libpython3.6m.so.1.0 (0x00007f58a31e8000)
  $ rpm -qf /lib64/libpython3.6m.so.1.0
  python3-libs-3.6.4-7.fc27.x86_64
  $

Now verify that when using the binding the right ELF file is loaded,
using perf trace:

  $ perf trace -e open* perf test python
     0.051 ( 0.016 ms): perf/3927 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC           ) = 3
<SNIP>
  18: 'import perf' in python                               :
     8.849 ( 0.013 ms): sh/3929 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC           ) = 3
<SNIP>
    25.572 ( 0.008 ms): python3/3931 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.cpython-36m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
<SNIP>
 Ok
<SNIP>
  $

And using tools/perf/python/twatch.py, to show PERF_RECORD_ metaevents:

  $ python3 tools/perf/python/twatch.py

available, like in this test:

      perf ftrace: Append an EOL when write tracing files · 63cd02d8
      Changbin Du authored 
      Before this change, the '--graph-funcs', '--nograph-funcs' and
'--trace-funcs' options didn't work as expected when the <func> doesn't
exist. Because the kernel side hid possible errors.

  $ sudo ./perf ftrace -a --graph-depth 1 --graph-funcs abcdefg
   0)   0.140 us    |  rcu_all_qs();
   3)   0.304 us    |  mutex_unlock();
   0)   0.153 us    |  find_vma();
   3)   0.088 us    |  __fsnotify_parent();
   0)   6.145 us    |  handle_mm_fault();
   3)   0.089 us    |  fsnotify();
   3)   0.161 us    |  __sb_end_write();
   3)   0.710 us    |  SyS_close();
   3)   7.848 us    |  exit_to_usermode_loop();

On the example above, I specified the function filter 'abcdefg' but all
functions are enabled. The expected result is for all functions to be
filtered, since there is no such function ('abcdefg')

The original fix is to make the kernel support '\0' as end of string:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/1/16/116

But above fix cannot be compatible with old kernels. Then Namhyung Kim
suggest adding a space after function name.

This patch will append an '\n' when write tracing file. After this fix,
the perf will report correct error state. Also let it print an error if
reset_tracing_files() fails.

Committer testing:

Now it prints:

  # perf ftrace -a --graph-depth 1 --graph-funcs abcdefg
  failed to set tracing filters
  #

And for an existing function:

  # perf ftrace -a --graph-depth 1 --graph-funcs SyS_open
   3)               |  SyS_open() {
   3) ! 494.899 us  |  }
   0) + 23.910 us   |  SyS_open();
   1) + 17.115 us   |  SyS_open();
   1) + 13.900 us   |  SyS_open();
   ------------------------------------------
   3)  qemu-sy-2817  =>  pickup-1290
   ------------------------------------------

   3) + 20.021 us   |  SyS_open();

      perf machine: Fix paranoid check in machine__set_kernel_mmap() · 1d12cec6
      Namhyung Kim authored 
      The machine__set_kernel_mmap() is to setup addresses of the kernel map
using external info.  But it has a check when the address is given from
an incorrect input which should have the start and end address of 0
(i.e. machine__process_kernel_mmap_event).

But we also use the end address of 0 for a valid input so change it to
check both start and end addresses.

      Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.17-20180216' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

- Fix wrong jump arrow in systems with branch records with cycles,
  i.e. Intel's >= Skylake (Jin Yao)

- Fix 'perf record --per-thread' problem introduced when
  implementing 'perf stat --per-thread (Jin Yao)

- Use arch__compare_symbol_names() to fix 'perf test vmlinux',
  that was using strcmp(symbol names) while the dso routines
  doing symbol lookups used the arch overridable one, making
  this test fail in architectures that overrided that function
  with something other than strcmp() (Jiri Olsa)

- Add 'perf script --show-round-event' to display
  PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND entries (Jiri Olsa)

- Fix dwarf unwind for stripped binaries in 'perf test' (Jiri Olsa)

- Use ordered_events for 'perf report --tasks', otherwise we may get
  artifacts when PERF_RECORD_FORK gets processed before PERF_RECORD_COMM
  (when they got recorded in different CPUs) (Jiri Olsa)

- Add support to display group output for non group events, i.e.
  now when one uses 'perf report --group' on a perf.data file
  recorded without explicitly grouping events with {} (e.g.
  "perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}'" get the same output
  that would produce, i.e. see all those non-grouped events in
  multiple columns, at the same time (Jiri Olsa)

- Skip non-address kallsyms entries, e.g. '(null)' for !root (Jiri Olsa)

- Kernel maps fixes wrt perf.data(report) versus live system (top)
  (Jiri Olsa)

- Fix memory corruption when using 'perf record -j call -g -a <application>'
  followed by 'perf report --branch-history' (Jiri Olsa)

- ARM CoreSight fixes (Mathieu Poirier)

- Add inject capability for CoreSight Traces (Robert Waker)

- Update documentation for use of 'perf' + ARM CoreSight (Robert Walker)

- Man pages fixes (Sangwon Hong, Jaecheol Shin)

- Fix some 'perf test' cases on s/390 and x86_64 (some backtraces
  changed with a glibc update) (Thomas Richter)

- Add detailed CPUID info in the 'perf.data' headers for s/390 to
  then use it in 'perf annotate' (Thomas Richter)

- Add '--interval-count N' to 'perf stat', to use with -I, i.e.
  'perf stat -I 1000 --interval-count 2' will show stats every
   1000ms, two times (yuzhoujian)

- Add 'perf stat --timeout Nms', that will run for that many
  milliseconds and then stop, printing the counters (yuzhoujian)

- Fix description for 'perf report --mem-modex (Andi Kleen)

- Use a wildcard to remove the vfs_getname probe in the
  'perf test' shell based test cases (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
