From now on each feature information is processed and saved in perf header so that it can be used wherever needed. The BRANCH_STACK feature is an exception since it needs nothing to be done.

Following the model of 'perf sched': . raw_field_value searches first on the common fields, that are unused in this tool . Leave using perf_evsel__intval to the actual handlers, some may not need to incur some of the cost because they may not need all the fields values. . Using perf_session__set_tracepoints_handlers will save all those strcmp to find the right handler at sample processing time, do it just once and get the handler from evsel->handler.func.

Using plain raw_field_value(evsel->tp_format) will look at the common fields as well, and since this tool doesn't need those, speed it up a bit by looking at just the event specific fields. Also in general use just evsel and sample, just like was done in 'perf sched'. v2: Fixed up test against evsel->name, that contains the subsys name too, by David Ahern.

This can pretty quickly be seen by adding a sleep in front of the bison calls in tools/perf/Makefile and running make -j4 on a smaller box i.e.: sleep 10; $(QUIET_BISON)$(BISON) -v util/pmu.y -d -o $(OUTPUT)util/pmu-bison.c Adding the following dependencies fixes it for me.

The integrated annotation feature is supported only in TUI mode.

arch_uprobe_disable_step() should also take UTASK_SSTEP_TRAPPED into account. In this case the probed insn was not executed, we need to clear X86_EFLAGS_TF if it was set by us and that is all.

Oleg Nesterov authored
arch_uprobe_disable_step() correctly preserves X86_EFLAGS_TF and returns to user-mode. But this means the application gets SIGTRAP only after the next insn. This means that UPROBE_CLEAR_TF logic is not really right. _enable should only record the state of X86_EFLAGS_TF, and _disable should check it separately from UPROBE_FIX_SETF. Remove arch_uprobe_task->restore_flags, add ->saved_tf instead, and change enable/disable accordingly. This assumes that the probed insn was not trapped, see the next patch. arch_uprobe_skip_sstep() logic has the same problem, change it to check X86_EFLAGS_TF and send SIGTRAP as well. We will cleanup this all after we fold enable/disable_step into pre/post_hol hooks. Note: send_sig(SIGTRAP) is not actually right, we need send_sigtrap(). But this needs more changes, handle_swbp() does the same and this is equally wrong. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

user_enable/disable_single_step() was designed for ptrace, it assumes a single user and does unnecessary and wrong things for uprobes. For example: - arch_uprobe_enable_step() can't trust TIF_SINGLESTEP, an application itself can set X86_EFLAGS_TF which must be preserved after arch_uprobe_disable_step(). - we do not want to set TIF_SINGLESTEP/TIF_FORCED_TF in arch_uprobe_enable_step(), this only makes sense for ptrace. - otoh we leak TIF_SINGLESTEP if arch_uprobe_disable_step() doesn't do user_disable_single_step(), the application will be killed after the next syscall. - arch_uprobe_enable_step() does access_process_vm() we do not need/want. Change arch_uprobe_enable/disable_step() to set/clear X86_EFLAGS_TF directly, this is much simpler and more correct. However, we need to clear TIF_BLOCKSTEP/DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF before executing the probed insn, add set_task_blockstep(false). Note: with or without this patch, there is another (hopefully minor) problem. A probed "pushf" insn can see the wrong X86_EFLAGS_TF set by uprobes. Perhaps we should change _disable to update the stack, or teach arch_uprobe_skip_sstep() to emulate this insn.

Afaics the usage of update_debugctlmsr() and TIF_BLOCKSTEP in step.c was always very wrong. 1. update_debugctlmsr() was simply unneeded. The child sleeps TASK_TRACED, __switch_to_xtra(next_p => child) should notice TIF_BLOCKSTEP and set/clear DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF after resume if needed. 2. It is wrong. The state of DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF bit in CPU register should always match the state of current's TIF_BLOCKSTEP bit. 3. Even get_debugctlmsr() + update_debugctlmsr() itself does not look right. Irq can change other bits in MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR register or the caller can be preempted in between. 4. It is not safe to play with TIF_BLOCKSTEP if task != current. DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF and TIF_BLOCKSTEP should always match each other if the task is running. The tracee is stopped but it can be SIGKILL'ed right before set/clear_tsk_thread_flag(). However, now that uprobes uses user_enable_single_step(current) we can't simply remove update_debugctlmsr(). So this patch adds the additional "task == current" check and disables irqs to avoid the race with interrupts/preemption. Unfortunately this patch doesn't solve the last problem, we need another fix. Probably we should teach ptrace_stop() to set/clear single/block stepping after resume. And afaics there is yet another problem: perf can play with MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR from nmi, this obviously means that even __switch_to_xtra() has problems.

No functional changes, preparation for the next fix and for uprobes single-step fixes. Move the code playing with TIF_BLOCKSTEP/DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF into the new helper, set_task_blockstep(). Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The arch specific implementation behaves like user_enable_single_step() except that it does not disable single stepping if it was already enabled by ptrace. This allows the debugger to single step over an uprobe. The state of block stepping is not restored. It makes only sense together with TF and if that was enabled then the debugger is notified. Note: this is still not correct. For example, TIF_SINGLESTEP check is not right, the application itself can set X86_EFLAGS_TF. And otoh we leak TIF_SINGLESTEP (set by enable) if the probed insn is "popf". See the next patches, we need the changes in arch/x86/kernel/step.c first.

As Oleg pointed out in [0] uprobe should not use the ptrace interface for enabling/disabling single stepping. [0] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20120730141638.GA5306@redhat.com Add the new "__weak arch" helpers which simply call user_*_single_step() as a preparation. This is only needed to not break the powerpc port, we will fold this logic into arch_uprobe_pre/post_xol() hooks later. We should also change handle_singlestep(), _disable_step(&uprobe->arch) should be called before put_uprobe().

The wrong MMF_HAS_UPROBES doesn't really hurt, just it triggers the "slow" and unnecessary handle_swbp() path if the task hits the non-uprobe breakpoint. So this patch changes find_active_uprobe() to check every valid vma and clear MMF_HAS_UPROBES if no uprobes were found. This is adds the slow O(n) path, but it is only called in unlikely case when the task hits the normal breakpoint first time after uprobe_unregister(). Note the "not strictly accurate" comment in mmf_recalc_uprobes(). We can fix this, we only need to teach vma_has_uprobes() to return a bit more more info, but I am not sure this worth the trouble.

Add the new MMF_RECALC_UPROBES flag, it means that MMF_HAS_UPROBES can be false positive after remove_breakpoint() or uprobe_munmap(). It is also set by uprobe_dup_mmap(), this is not optimal but simple. We could add the new hook, uprobe_dup_vma(), to set MMF_HAS_UPROBES only if the new mm actually has uprobes, but I don't think this makes sense. The next patch will use this flag to clear MMF_HAS_UPROBES. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

As a side effect of commit f5951d56 ("perf hists browser: Use perf_hpp__format functions") perf report TUI got a problem of not refreshing the first character. Since the previous patch restores the column width of "overhead" to 7 we can start at column 0 now.
