Add an example BPF script that writes syscalls:sys_enter_openat raw tracepoint payloads augmented with the first 64 bytes of the "filename" syscall pointer arg. Then catch it and print it just like with things written to the "__bpf_stdout__" map associated with a PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT software event, by just letting the default tracepoint handler in 'perf trace', trace__event_handler(), to use bpf_output__fprintf(trace, sample), just like it does with all other PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT events, i.e. just do a dump on the payload, so that we can check if what is being printed has at least the first 64 bytes of the "filename" arg: The augmented_syscalls.c eBPF script: # cat tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_syscalls.c // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 #include <stdio.h> struct bpf_map SEC("maps") __augmented_syscalls__ = { .type = BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY, .key_size = sizeof(int), .value_size = sizeof(u32), .max_entries = __NR_CPUS__, }; struct syscall_enter_openat_args { unsigned long long common_tp_fields; long syscall_nr; long dfd; char *filename_ptr; long flags; long mode; }; struct augmented_enter_openat_args { struct syscall_enter_openat_args args; char filename[64]; }; int syscall_enter(openat)(struct syscall_enter_openat_args *args) { struct augmented_enter_openat_args augmented_args; probe_read(&augmented_args.args, sizeof(augmented_args.args), args); probe_read_str(&augmented_args.filename, sizeof(augmented_args.filename), args->filename_ptr); perf_event_output(args, &__augmented_syscalls__, BPF_F_CURRENT_CPU, &augmented_args, sizeof(augmented_args)); return 1; } license(GPL); # So it will just prepare a raw_syscalls:sys_enter payload for the "openat" syscall. This will eventually be done for all syscalls with pointer args, globally or just when the user asks, using some spec, which args of which syscalls it wants "expanded" this way, we'll probably start with just all the syscalls that have char * pointers with familiar names, the ones we already handle with the probe:vfs_getname kprobe if it is in place hooking the kernel getname_flags() function used to copy from user the paths.

We have more current function tto get the title for annotation, which is hists__scnprintf_title. They both have same output as far as the annotation's header line goes. They differ in counting of the nr_samples, hists__scnprintf_title provides more accurate number based on the setup of the symbol_conf.filter_relative variable. Plus it also displays any uid/thread/dso/socket filters/zooms if there are set any, which annotation__scnprintf_samples_period does not. Signed-off-by:

bitmap_zero() is called after bitmap_alloc() in perf code. But bitmap_alloc() internally uses calloc() which guarantees that allocated area is zeroed. So following bitmap_zero is unneeded. Drop it. This happened because of confusing name for bitmap allocator. It should has name bitmap_zalloc instead of bitmap_alloc. This series: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/6/18/841 introduces a new API for bitmap allocations in kernel, and functions there are named correctly. Following patch propogates the API to tools, and fixes naming issue. Signed-off-by:

Add initial support for s390 auxiliary traces using the CPU-Measurement Sampling Facility. Support and ignore PERF_REPORT_AUXTRACE_INFO records in the perf data file. Later patches will show the contents of the auxiliary traces. Setup the auxtrace queues and data structures for s390. A raw dump of the perf.data file now does not show an error when an auxtrace event is encountered.

Additional notes about the underlying hardware and software implementation, provided by Hendrik Brueckner (see Link: below). ============================================================================= The CPU-Measurement Facility (CPU-MF) provides a set of functions to obtain performance information on the mainframe. Basically, it was introduced with System z10 years ago for the z/Architecture, that means, 64-bit. For Linux, there are two facilities of interest, counter facility and sampling facility. The counter facility provides hardware counters for instructions, cycles, crypto-activities, and many more. The sampling facility is a hardware sampler that when started will write samples at a particular interval into a sampling buffer. At some point, for example, if a sample block is full, it generates an interrupt to collect samples (while the sampler continues to run). Few years ago, I started to provide the a perf PMU to use the counter and sampling facilities. Recently, the device driver was updated to also "export" the sampling buffer into the AUX area. Thomas now completed the related perf work to interpret and process these AUX data. If people are more interested in the sampling facility, they can have a look into: - The Load-Program-Parameter and the CPU-Measurement Facilities, SA23-2260-05 http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg26fcd1cc32246f4c8852574ce0044734a and to learn how-to use it for Linux on Z, have look at chapter 54, "Using the CPU-measurement facilities" in the: - Device Drivers, Features, and Commands, SC33-8411-34 http://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/dw/linux390/docu/l416dd34.pdf ============================================================================= Signed-off-by:

Now it looks just about the same as for the trace__sys_{enter,exit}.

Mapping "__syscall_nr" to "id" and setting up "args" from the offset of "__syscall_nr" + sizeof(u64), as the payload for syscalls:* is the same as for raw_syscalls:*, just the fields have different names.

To avoid having to ask libtraceevent to find a field by name when handling each tracepoint event, we setup a struct syscall_tp with a tp_field struct having an extractor function + the offset for the "id", "args" and "ret" raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} tracepoints. Now that we want to do the same with syscalls:sys_{entry,exit}_NAME individual syscall tracepoints, where we have "id" as "__syscall_nr" and "args" as the actual series of per syscall parameters, we need more flexibility from the routines that set up these pre-looked up syscall tracepoint arg fields. The next cset will use it.

Because raw_syscalls have the field for the syscall number as 'id' while the syscalls:sys_{enter,exit}_NAME have it as __syscall_nr... Since we want to support both for being able to enable just a syscalls:sys_{enter,exit}_name instead of asking for raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} plus filters, make the method names for each kind of tracepoint more explicit.

We were using the beautifiers only when processing the raw_syscalls:sys_enter events, but we can as well use them for the syscalls:sys_enter_NAME events, as the layout is the same. Some more tweaking is needed as we're processing them straight away, i.e. there is no buffering in the sys_enter_NAME event to wait for things like vfs_getname to provide pointer contents and then flushing at sys_exit_NAME, so we need to state in the syscall_arg that this is unbuffered, just print the pointer values, beautifying just non-pointer syscall args. This just shows an alternative way of processing tracepoints, that we will end up using when creating "tracepoint" payloads that already copy pointer contents (or chunks of it, i.e. not the whole filename, but just the end of it, not all the bf for a read/write, but just the start, etc), directly in the kernel using eBPF. E.g.: # perf trace -e syscalls:*enter*sleep,*sleep sleep 1 0.303 ( ): syscalls:sys_enter_nanosleep:rqtp: 0x7ffc93d5ecc0 0.305 (1000.229 ms): sleep/8746 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffc93d5ecc0) = 0 # perf trace -e syscalls:*_*sleep,*sleep sleep 1 0.288 ( ): syscalls:sys_enter_nanosleep:rqtp: 0x7ffecde87e40 0.289 ( ): sleep/8748 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffecde87e40) ... 1000.479 ( ): syscalls:sys_exit_nanosleep:0x0 0.289 (1000.208 ms): sleep/8748 ...

When the vfs_getname() wannabe tracepoint is in place: # perf probe -l probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:73@acme/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname) # 'perf trace' will use it to get the pathname when it is copied from userspace to the kernel, right after syscalls:sys_enter_open, copied in the 'probe:vfs_getname', stash it somewhere and then, at syscalls:sys_exit_open time, if the 'open' return is not -1, i.e. a successfull open syscall, associate that pathname to this return, i.e. the fd. We were not doing this for the 'openat' syscall, which would cause 'perf trace' to fallback to using /proc to get the fd, change it so that we use what we got from probe:vfs_getname, reducing the 'openat' beautification process cost, ditching the syscalls performed to read procfs state and avoiding some possible races in the process.

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.19-20180801' 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: perf trace: (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Do not require --no-syscalls to suppress strace like output, i.e. # perf trace -e sched:*switch will show just sched:sched_switch events, not strace-like formatted syscall events, use --syscalls to get the previous behaviour. If instead: # perf trace is used, i.e. no events specified, then --syscalls is implied and system wide strace like formatting will be applied to all syscalls. The behaviour when just a syscall subset is used with '-e' is unchanged: # perf trace -e *sleep,sched:*switch will work as before: just the 'nanosleep' syscall will be strace-like formatted plus the sched:sched_switch tracepoint event, system wide. - Allow string table generators to use a default header dir, allowing use of them without parameters to see the table it generates on stdout, e.g.: $ tools/perf/trace/beauty/kvm_ioctl.sh static const char *kvm_ioctl_cmds[] = { [0x00] = "GET_API_VERSION", [0x01] = "CREATE_VM", [0x02] = "GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST", [0x03] = "CHECK_EXTENSION", <BIG SNIP> [0xe0] = "CREATE_DEVICE", [0xe1] = "SET_DEVICE_ATTR", [0xe2] = "GET_DEVICE_ATTR", [0xe3] = "HAS_DEVICE_ATTR", }; $ See 'ls tools/perf/trace/beauty/*.sh' to see the available string table generators. - Add a generator for IPPROTO_ socket's protocol constants. perf record: (Kan Liang) - Fix error out while applying initial delay and using LBR, due to the use of a PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE/PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY event to track PERF_RECORD_MMAP events while waiting for the initial delay. Such events fail when configured asking PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK in perf_event_attr.sample_type. perf c2c: (Jiri Olsa) - Fix report crash for empty browser, when processing a perf.data file without events of interest, either because not asked for in 'perf record' or because the workload didn't triggered such events. perf list: (Michael Petlan) - Align metric group description format with PMU event description. perf tests: (Sandipan Das) - Fix indexing when invoking subtests, which caused BPF tests to get results for the next test in the list, with the last one reporting a failure. eBPF: - Fix installation directory for header files included from eBPF proggies, avoiding clashing with relative paths used to build other software projects such as glibc. (Thomas Richter) - Show better message when failing to load an object. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) General: (Christophe Leroy) - Allow overriding MAX_NR_CPUS at compile time, to make the tooling usable in systems with less memory, in time this has to be changed to properly allocate based on _NPROCESSORS_ONLN. Architecture specific: - Update arm64's ThunderX2 implementation defined pmu core events (Ganapatrao Kulkarni) - Fix complex event name parsing in 'perf test' for PowerPC, where the 'umask' event modifier isn't present. (Sandipan Das) CoreSight ARM hardware tracing: (Leo Yan) - Fix start tracing packet handling. - Support dummy address value for CS_ETM_TRACE_ON packet. - Generate branch sample when receiving a CS_ETM_TRACE_ON packet. - Generate branch sample for CS_ETM_TRACE_ON packet.
