Add a --insn-trace short hand option for decoding and disassembling instruction streams for intel_pt. This automatically pipes the output into the xed disassembler to generate disassembled instructions. This just makes this use model much nicer to use.

Add a report to display branches in a similar fashion to perf script. The main purpose of this report is to display disassembly, however, presently, the only supported disassembler is Intel XED, and additionally the object code must be present in perf build ID cache. To use Intel XED, libxed.so must be present. To build and install libxed.so: git clone https://github.com/intelxed/mbuild.git mbuild git clone https://github.com/intelxed/xed cd xed ./mfile.py --share sudo ./mfile.py --prefix=/usr/local install sudo ldconfig Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181023075949.18920-1-adrian.hunter@intel.comSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Displaying all the database tables can help make the database easier to understand. Committer testing: Opened all the tables, even the sqlite master table, which I selected everything and used control+C, lets see if it works... CREATE VIEW threads_view AS SELECT id,machine_id,(SELECT host_or_guest FROM machines_view WHERE id = machine_id) AS host_or_guest,process_id,pid,tid FROM threads Humm, nope, just one of the cells got copied, even with everything selected :-) Anyway, works as advertised, useful for perusing the data.

Use Qt MDI (multiple document interface) to support multiple sub-windows. Put the data model in a cache so that each sub-window can share the same data. This allows mutiple views of the call-graph at the same time and paves the way to add more reports. Committer testing: Starts with a "File Reports Windows" main menu, from the "Reports" I can get what was available up to now, the "Context-Sensitivi Call Graph" option.

class TreeItem represents items at all levels of the call-graph tree. However, not all the levels represent the same data i.e. the top-level is comms, the next level is threads, and subsequent levels are functions. Consequently it is simpler to have separate classes for different levels with commonality in a base class. Refactor TreeItem class accordingly.

When the perf script output is written to a terminal stream, the normal output of `perf script` would get buffered, but its debug output would be written directly. This made it quite hard to figure out where a given debug output is coming from. We can improve on this by flushing the output buffer after processing an event. To see the value, compare the following output for a `perf script -v` run: Before this patch: ``` unwind: reg 16, val 7faf7dfdc000 unwind: reg 7, val 7ffc80811e30 unwind: find_proc_info dso /usr/lib/ld-2.28.so unwind: reg 6, val 0 unwind: _start:ip = 0x7faf7dfdc000 (0x2000) unwind: reg 16, val 7faf7dfdc000 unwind: reg 7, val 7ffc80811e30 unwind: find_proc_info dso /usr/lib/ld-2.28.so unwind: reg 6, val 0 unwind: _start:ip = 0x7faf7dfdc000 (0x2000) unwind: reg 16, val 7faf7dfdc000 unwind: reg 7, val 7ffc80811e30 unwind: find_proc_info dso /usr/lib/ld-2.28.so unwind: reg 6, val 0 unwind: _start:ip = 0x7faf7dfdc000 (0x2000) unwind: reg 16, val 7faf7dfdc000 unwind: reg 7, val 7ffc80811e30 ... lots and lots of verbose debug output cpp-inlining 24617 90229.122036534: 1 cycles:uppp: 7faf7dfdc000 _start+0x0 (/usr/lib/ld-2.28.so) cpp-inlining 24617 90229.122043974: 1 cycles:uppp: 7faf7dfdc000 _start+0x0 (/usr/lib/ld-2.28.so) ... ``` After this patch: ``` ... unwind: reg 16, val 7faf7dfdc000 unwind: reg 7, val 7ffc80811e30 unwind: find_proc_info dso /usr/lib/ld-2.28.so unwind: reg 6, val 0 unwind: _start:ip = 0x7faf7dfdc000 (0x2000) cpp-inlining 24617 90229.122036534: 1 cycles:uppp: 7faf7dfdc000 _start+0x0 (/usr/lib/ld-2.28.so) unwind: reg 16, val 7faf7dfdc000 unwind: reg 7, val 7ffc80811e30 unwind: find_proc_info dso /usr/lib/ld-2.28.so unwind: reg 6, val 0 unwind: _start:ip = 0x7faf7dfdc000 (0x2000) cpp-inlining 24617 90229.122043974: 1 cycles:uppp: 7faf7dfdc000 _start+0x0 (/usr/lib/ld-2.28.so) ... ``` This new output format makes it much easier to use perf script output for debugging purposes, e.g. to investigate broken dwarf unwinding.

This in turn lead to confusing output such as: ``` $ perf script -vvv ... ... overlapping maps in /home/milian/foobar (disable tui for more info) ... ``` Explicitly set use_browser to 0 now, which gives us the extended debug information now in perf script as expected.

When we use machine__resolve() we grab a reference to addr_location.thread (and in the future to other elements there) via machine__findnew_thread(), so we must pair that with addr_location__put(), else we'll never drop that thread when it exits and no other remaining data structures have pointers to it.

Because there may be more such events in the ring buffer that should be discarded when an app decides to stop considering them. At some point we'll do this with eBPF, this way we stop them at origin, before they are placed in the ring buffer.

This simply adds the field to 'struct perf_evsel' and allows setting it via the event parser, to test it lets trace trace: First look at where in a function that receives an evsel we can put a probe to read how evsel->max_events was setup: # perf probe -x ~/bin/perf -L trace__event_handler <trace__event_handler@/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/builtin-trace.c:0> 0 static int trace__event_handler(struct trace *trace, struct perf_evsel *evsel, union perf_event *event __maybe_unused, struct perf_sample *sample) 3 { 4 struct thread *thread = machine__findnew_thread(trace->host, sample->pid, sample->tid); 5 int callchain_ret = 0; 7 if (sample->callchain) { 8 callchain_ret = trace__resolve_callchain(trace, evsel, sample, &callchain_cursor); 9 if (callchain_ret == 0) { 10 if (callchain_cursor.nr < trace->min_stack) 11 goto out; 12 callchain_ret = 1; } } See what variables we can probe at line 7: # perf probe -x ~/bin/perf -V trace__event_handler:7 Available variables at trace__event_handler:7 @<trace__event_handler+89> int callchain_ret struct perf_evsel* evsel struct perf_sample* sample struct thread* thread struct trace* trace union perf_event* event Add a probe at that line asking for evsel->max_events to be collected and named as "max_events": # perf probe -x ~/bin/perf trace__event_handler:7 'max_events=evsel->max_events' Added new event: probe_perf:trace__event_handler (on trace__event_handler:7 in /home/acme/bin/perf with max_events=evsel->max_events) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe_perf:trace__event_handler -aR sleep 1 Now use 'perf trace', here aliased to just 'trace' and trace trace, i.e. the first 'trace' is tracing just that 'probe_perf:trace__event_handler' event, while the traced trace is tracing all scheduler tracepoints, will stop at two events (--max-events 2) and will just set evsel->max_events for all the sched tracepoints to 9, we will see the output of both traces intermixed: # trace -e *perf:*event_handler trace --max-events 2 -e sched:*/nr=9/ 0.000 :0/0 sched:sched_waking:comm=rcu_sched pid=10 prio=120 target_cpu=000 0.009 :0/0 sched:sched_wakeup:comm=rcu_sched pid=10 prio=120 target_cpu=000 0.000 trace/23949 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9 0.046 trace/23949 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9 # Now, if the traced trace sends its output to /dev/null, we'll see just what the first level trace outputs: that evsel->max_events is indeed being set to 9: # trace -e *perf:*event_handler trace -o /dev/null --max-events 2 -e sched:*/nr=9/ 0.000 trace/23961 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9 0.030 trace/23961 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9 # Now that we can set evsel->max_events, we can go to the next step, honour that per-event property in 'perf trace'.

David reports that: <quote> Perf has this hack where it uses the kernel symbol map as a backup when a symbol can't be found in the user's symbol table(s). This causes problems because the tests driving this code path use machine__kernel_ip(), and that is completely meaningless on Sparc. On sparc64 the kernel and user live in physically separate virtual address spaces, rather than a shared one. And the kernel lives at a virtual address that overlaps common userspace addresses. So this test passes almost all the time when a user symbol lookup fails. The consequence of this is that, if the unfound user virtual address in the sample doesn't match up to a kernel symbol either, we trigger things like this code in builtin-top.c: if (al.sym == NULL && al.map != NULL) { const char *msg = "Kernel samples will not be resolved.\n"; /* * As we do lazy loading of symtabs we only will know if the * specified vmlinux file is invalid when we actually have a * hit in kernel space and then try to load it. So if we get * here and there are _no_ symbols in the DSO backing the * kernel map, bail out. * * We may never get here, for instance, if we use -K/ * --hide-kernel-symbols, even if the user specifies an * invalid --vmlinux ;-) */ if (!machine->kptr_restrict_warned && !top->vmlinux_warned && __map__is_kernel(al.map) && map__has_symbols(al.map)) { if (symbol_conf.vmlinux_name) { char serr[256]; dso__strerror_load(al.map->dso, serr, sizeof(serr)); ui__warning("The %s file can't be used: %s\n%s", symbol_conf.vmlinux_name, serr, msg); } else { ui__warning("A vmlinux file was not found.\n%s", msg); } if (use_browser <= 0) sleep(5); top->vmlinux_warned = true; } } When I fire up a compilation on sparc, this triggers immediately. I'm trying to figure out what the "backup to kernel map" code is accomplishing. I see some language in the current code and in the changes that have happened in this area talking about vdso. Does that really happen? The vdso is mapped into userspace virtual addresses, not kernel ones. More history. This didn't cause problems on sparc some time ago, because the kernel IP check used to be "ip < 0" :-) Sparc kernel addresses are not negative. But now with machine__kernel_ip(), which works using the symbol table determined kernel address range, it does trigger. What it all boils down to is that on architectures like sparc, machine__kernel_ip() should always return false in this scenerio, and therefore this kind of logic: if (cpumode == PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER && machine && mg != &machine->kmaps && machine__kernel_ip(machine, al->addr)) { is basically invalid. PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER implies no kernel address can possibly match for the sample/event in question (no matter how hard you try!) :-) </> So, I thought something had changed and in the past we would somehow find that address in the kallsyms, but I couldn't find anything to back that up, the patch introducing this is over a decade old, lots of things changed, so I was just thinking I was missing something. I tried a gtod busy loop to generate vdso activity and added a 'perf probe' at that branch, on x86_64 to see if it ever gets hit: Made thread__find_map() noinline, as 'perf probe' in lines of inline functions seems to not be working, only at function start.

When the function name for an inline frame is invalid, we must not try to demangle this symbol, otherwise we crash with: #0 0x0000555555895c01 in bfd_demangle () #1 0x0000555555823262 in demangle_sym (dso=0x555555d92b90, elf_name=0x0, kmodule=0) at util/symbol-elf.c:215 #2 dso__demangle_sym (dso=dso@entry=0x555555d92b90, kmodule=<optimized out>, kmodule@entry=0, elf_name=elf_name@entry=0x0) at util/symbol-elf.c:400 #3 0x00005555557fef4b in new_inline_sym (funcname=0x0, base_sym=0x555555d92b90, dso=0x555555d92b90) at util/srcline.c:89 #4 inline_list__append_dso_a2l (dso=dso@entry=0x555555c7bb00, node=node@entry=0x555555e31810, sym=sym@entry=0x555555d92b90) at util/srcline.c:264 #5 0x00005555557ff27f in addr2line (dso_name=dso_name@entry=0x555555d92430 "/home/milian/.debug/.build-id/f7/186d14bb94f3c6161c010926da66033d24fce5/elf", addr=addr@entry=2888, file=file@entry=0x0, line=line@entry=0x0, dso=dso@entry=0x555555c7bb00, unwind_inlines=unwind_inlines@entry=true, node=0x555555e31810, sym=0x555555d92b90) at util/srcline.c:313 #6 0x00005555557ffe7c in addr2inlines (sym=0x555555d92b90, dso=0x555555c7bb00, addr=2888, dso_name=0x555555d92430 "/home/milian/.debug/.build-id/f7/186d14bb94f3c6161c010926da66033d24fce5/elf") at util/srcline.c:358 So instead handle the case where we get invalid function names for inlined frames and use a fallback '??' function name instead. While this crash was originally reported by Hadrien for rust code, I can now also reproduce it with trivial C++ code. Indeed, it seems like libbfd fails to interpret the debug information for the inline frame symbol name: $ addr2line -e /home/milian/.debug/.build-id/f7/186d14bb94f3c6161c010926da66033d24fce5/elf -if b48 main /usr/include/c++/8.2.1/complex:610 ?? /usr/include/c++/8.2.1/complex:618 ?? /usr/include/c++/8.2.1/complex:675 ?? /usr/include/c++/8.2.1/complex:685 main /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 I've reported this bug upstream and also attached a patch there which should fix this issue: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23715Reported-by: Hadrien Grasland <grasland@lal.in2p3.fr> Signed-off-by: Milian Wolff <milian.wolff@kdab.com> Cc: Jin Yao <yao.jin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Fixes: a64489c5 ("perf report: Find the inline stack for a given address") [ The above 'Fixes:' cset is where originally the problem was introduced, i.e. using a2l->funcname without checking if it is NULL, but this current patch fixes the current codebase, i.e. multiple csets were applied after a64489c5 before the problem was reported by Hadrien ] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180926135207.30263-3-milian.wolff@kdab.comSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
