      perf tools: Remove needless asm/unistd.h include fixing build in some places · 7e221b81
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      We were including sys/syscall.h and asm/unistd.h, since sys/syscall.h
      includes asm/unistd.h, sometimes this leads to the redefinition of
      defines, breaking the build.
      
      Noticed on ARC with uCLibc.

      tools arch uapi: Copy missing unistd.h headers for arc, hexagon and riscv · 18f90d37
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Since those were introduced in:
      
        c8ce48f0 ("asm-generic: Make time32 syscall numbers optional")
      
      But when the asm-generic/unistd.h was sync'ed with tools/ in:
      
        1a787fc5 ("tools headers uapi: Sync copy of asm-generic/unistd.h with the kernel sources")
      
      I forgot to copy the files for the architectures that define
      __ARCH_WANT_TIME32_SYSCALLS, so the perf build was breaking there, as
      reported by Vineet Gupta for the ARC architecture.
      
      After updating my ARC container to use the glibc based toolchain + cross
      building libnuma, zlib and elfutils, I finally managed to reproduce the
      problem and verify that this now is fixed and will not regress as will
      be tested before each pull req sent upstream.

      Thomas Backlund reported that the perf build was failing on the Mageia 7

      perf cs-etm: Always allocate memory for cs_etm_queue::prev_packet · 35bb59c1
      Leo Yan authored
      Robert Walker reported a segmentation fault is observed when process
      CoreSight trace data; this issue can be easily reproduced by the command
      'perf report --itrace=i1000i' for decoding tracing data.
      
      If neither the 'b' flag (synthesize branches events) nor 'l' flag
      (synthesize last branch entries) are specified to option '--itrace',
      cs_etm_queue::prev_packet will not been initialised.  After merging the
      code to support exception packets and sample flags, there introduced a
      number of uses of cs_etm_queue::prev_packet without checking whether it
      is valid, for these cases any accessing to uninitialised prev_packet
      will cause crash.
      
      As cs_etm_queue::prev_packet is used more widely now and it's already
      hard to follow which functions have been called in a context where the
      validity of cs_etm_queue::prev_packet has been checked, this patch
      always allocates memory for cs_etm_queue::prev_packet.

      Since cs_etm_queue::prev_packet is allocated for all cases, it will
      never be NULL pointer; now validity checking prev_packet is pointless,
      remove all of them.

      perf report: Report OOM in status line in the GTK UI · 167e418f
      Thomas Richter authored
      An -ENOMEM error is not reported in the GTK GUI.  Instead this error
      message pops up on the screen:
      
      [root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf  report -i perf.data.error68-1
      
      	Processing events... [974K/3M]
      	Error:failed to process sample
      
      	0xf4198 [0x8]: failed to process type: 68
      
      However when I use the same perf.data file with --stdio it works:
      
      [root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf  report -i perf.data.error68-1 --stdio \
      		| head -12

      The sample precentage is a bit low.....
      
      The GUI always fails in the FINISHED_ROUND event (68) and does not
      indicate the reason why.
      
      When happened is the following. Perf report calls a lot of functions and
      down deep when a FINISHED_ROUND event is processed, these functions are
      called:
      
        perf_session__process_event()
        + perf_session__process_user_event()
          + process_finished_round()
            + ordered_events__flush()
              + __ordered_events__flush()
      	  + do_flush()
      	    + ordered_events__deliver_event()
      	      + perf_session__deliver_event()
      	        + machine__deliver_event()
      	          + perf_evlist__deliver_event()
      	            + process_sample_event()
      	              + hist_entry_iter_add() --> only called in GUI case!!!
      	                + hist_iter__report__callback()
      	                  + symbol__inc_addr_sample()
      
      	                    Now this functions runs out of memory and
      			    returns -ENOMEM. This is reported all the way up
      			    until function
      
      perf_session__process_event() returns to its caller, where -ENOMEM is
      changed to -EINVAL and processing stops:
      
       if ((skip = perf_session__process_event(session, event, head)) < 0) {
            pr_err("%#" PRIx64 " [%#x]: failed to process type: %d\n",
      	     head, event->header.size, event->header.type);
            err = -EINVAL;
            goto out_err;
       }
      
      This occurred in the FINISHED_ROUND event when it has to process some
      10000 entries and ran out of memory.
      
      This patch indicates the root cause and displays it in the status line
      of ther perf report GUI.
      
      Output before (on GUI status line):
      
        0xf4198 [0x8]: failed to process type: 68
      
      Output after:
      
        0xf4198 [0x8]: failed to process type: 68 [not enough memory]
      
      Committer notes:
      
      the 'skip' variable needs to be initialized to -EINVAL, so that when the
      size is less than sizeof(struct perf_event_attr) we avoid this valid
      compiler warning:
      
        util/session.c: In function ‘perf_session__process_events’:

      While cross building perf to the ARC architecture on a fedora 30 host,

      Trying to reproduce a report by Vineet, I noticed that, with just
      cross-built zlib and numactl libraries, I ended up with the above
      failure.
      
      So, since RUSAGE_THREAD is available as a define, check for that and
      numactl libraries, I ended up with the above failure.
      
      So, since RUSAGE_THREAD is available as a define in the system headers,
      check if it is defined in the 'perf bench numa' sources and define it if
      not.
      
      Now it builds and I have to figure out if the problem reported by Vineet
      only takes place if we have libelf or some other library available.

      tools lib traceevent: Change tag string for error · 5f05182f
      Leo Yan authored
      The traceevent lib is used by the perf tool, and when executing
      
        perf test -v 6
      
      it outputs error log on the ARM64 platform:
      
        running test 33 '*:*'trace-cmd: No such file or directory
      
        [...]
      
        trace-cmd: Invalid argument
      
      The trace event parsing code originally came from trace-cmd so it keeps
      the tag string "trace-cmd" for errors, this easily introduces the
      impression that the perf tool launches trace-cmd command for trace event
      parsing, but in fact the related parsing is accomplished by the
      traceevent lib.
      
      This patch changes the tag string to "libtraceevent" so that we can
      avoid confusion and let users to more easily connect the error with
      traceevent lib.

      perf/x86/amd: Update generic hardware cache events for Family 17h · 0e3b74e2
      Kim Phillips authored
      Add a new amd_hw_cache_event_ids_f17h assignment structure set
      for AMD families 17h and above, since a lot has changed.  Specifically:
      
      L1 Data Cache
      
      The data cache access counter remains the same on Family 17h.
      
      For DC misses, PMCx041's definition changes with Family 17h,
      so instead we use the L2 cache accesses from L1 data cache
      misses counter (PMCx060,umask=0xc8).
      
      For DC hardware prefetch events, Family 17h breaks compatibility
      for PMCx067 "Data Prefetcher", so instead, we use PMCx05a "Hardware
      Prefetch DC Fills."
      
      L1 Instruction Cache
      
      PMCs 0x80 and 0x81 (32-byte IC fetches and misses) are backward
      compatible on Family 17h.
      
      For prefetches, we remove the erroneous PMCx04B assignment which
      counts how many software data cache prefetch load instructions were
      dispatched.
      
      LL - Last Level Cache
      
      Removing PMCs 7D, 7E, and 7F assignments, as they do not exist
      on Family 17h, where the last level cache is L3.  L3 counters
      can be accessed using the existing AMD Uncore driver.
      
      Data TLB
      
      On Intel machines, data TLB accesses ("dTLB-loads") are assigned
      to counters that count load/store instructions retired.  This
      is inconsistent with instruction TLB accesses, where Intel
      implementations report iTLB misses that hit in the STLB.
      
      Ideally, dTLB-loads would count higher level dTLB misses that hit
      in lower level TLBs, and dTLB-load-misses would report those
      that also missed in those lower-level TLBs, therefore causing
      a page table walk.  That would be consistent with instruction
      TLB operation, remove the redundancy between dTLB-loads and
      L1-dcache-loads, and prevent perf from producing artificially
      low percentage ratios, i.e. the "0.01%" below:
      
              42,550,869      L1-dcache-loads
              41,591,860      dTLB-loads
                   4,802      dTLB-load-misses          #    0.01% of all dTLB cache hits
               7,283,682      L1-dcache-stores
               7,912,392      dTLB-stores
                     310      dTLB-store-misses
      
      On AMD Families prior to 17h, the "Data Cache Accesses" counter is
      used, which is slightly better than load/store instructions retired,
      but still counts in terms of individual load/store operations
      instead of TLB operations.
      
      So, for AMD Families 17h and higher, this patch assigns "dTLB-loads"
      to a counter for L1 dTLB misses that hit in the L2 dTLB, and
      "dTLB-load-misses" to a counter for L1 DTLB misses that caused
      L2 DTLB misses and therefore also caused page table walks.  This
      results in a much more accurate view of data TLB performance:
      
              60,961,781      L1-dcache-loads
                   4,601      dTLB-loads
                     963      dTLB-load-misses          #   20.93% of all dTLB cache hits
      
      Note that for all AMD families, data loads and stores are combined
      in a single accesses counter, so no 'L1-dcache-stores' are reported
      separately, and stores are counted with loads in 'L1-dcache-loads'.
      
      Also note that the "% of all dTLB cache hits" string is misleading
      because (a) "dTLB cache": although TLBs can be considered caches for
      page tables, in this context, it can be misinterpreted as data cache
      hits because the figures are similar (at least on Intel), and (b) not
      all those loads (technically accesses) technically "hit" at that
      hardware level.  "% of all dTLB accesses" would be more clear/accurate.
      
      Instruction TLB
      
      On Intel machines, 'iTLB-loads' measure iTLB misses that hit in the
      STLB, and 'iTLB-load-misses' measure iTLB misses that also missed in
      the STLB and completed a page table walk.
      
      For AMD Family 17h and above, for 'iTLB-loads' we replace the
      erroneous instruction cache fetches counter with PMCx084
      "L1 ITLB Miss, L2 ITLB Hit".
      
      For 'iTLB-load-misses' we still use PMCx085 "L1 ITLB Miss,
      L2 ITLB Miss", but set a 0xff umask because without it the event
      does not get counted.
      
      Branch Predictor (BPU)
      
      PMCs 0xc2 and 0xc3 continue to be valid across all AMD Families.
      
      Node Level Events
      
      Family 17h does not have a PMCx0e9 counter, and corresponding counters
      have not been made available publicly, so for now, we mark them as
      unsupported for Families 17h and above.

      fanotify_get_fsid() is reading mark->connector->fsid under srcu. It can
      happen that it sees mark not fully initialized or mark that is already
      detached from the object list. In these cases mark->connector
      can be NULL leading to NULL ptr dereference. Fix the problem by
      being careful when reading mark->connector and check it for being NULL.
      Also use WRITE_ONCE when writing the mark just to prevent compiler from
      doing something stupid.
