Stephane reported a problem with forced leader in pipe mode, where report does not force the group output. The reason is that we don't force the leader in pipe mode. This patch adds HEADER_LAST_FEATURE mark to have a point where we have all events and features received, and force the group if requested. $ perf record --group -e '{cycles, instructions}' -o - kill | perf report -i - --group SNIP # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ................ ....... ................ ....................... # 28.36% 0.00% kill libc-2.25.so [.] __unregister_atfork 26.32% 0.00% kill libc-2.25.so [.] _dl_addr 26.10% 0.00% kill ld-2.25.so [.] _dl_relocate_object 17.32% 0.00% kill ld-2.25.so [.] __tunables_init 1.70% 0.01% kill [unknown] [k] 0xffffffffafa01a40 0.20% 0.00% kill ld-2.25.so [.] _start 0.00% 48.77% kill ld-2.25.so [.] do_lookup_x 0.00% 42.97% kill libc-2.25.so [.] _IO_getline 0.00% 6.35% kill ld-2.25.so [.] strcmp 0.00% 1.71% kill ld-2.25.so [.] _dl_sysdep_start 0.00% 0.19% kill ld-2.25.so [.] _dl_start Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Tested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180314092205.23291-2-jolsa@kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Currently when cnt is 100 an array bounds overflow occurs on the assignment of fd[cnt]. Fix this by performing the bounds check on cnt before writing to fd. Detected by cppcheck: tools/perf/tests/bp_account.c:115: (warning) Either the condition 'cnt==100' is redundant or the array 'fd[100]' is accessed at index 100, which is out of bounds.

Leo reported broken -k option behavior. The reason is that we used symbol_conf.vmlinux_name as a source for mmap event name, but in fact it's a vmlinux path.

When recently using 'perf report --stat' it was not clear to me from the output whether a particular statistics field (LOST_SAMPLES) was not present, or just zero: fomalhaut:~> perf report --stat Aggregated stats: TOTAL events: 495984 MMAP events: 85 COMM events: 3389 EXIT events: 1605 THROTTLE events: 2 UNTHROTTLE events: 2 FORK events: 3377 SAMPLE events: 472629 MMAP2 events: 14753 FINISHED_ROUND events: 139 THREAD_MAP events: 1 CPU_MAP events: 1 TIME_CONV events: 1 I had to check the output several times to ascertain that I'm not misreading the output, that the field didn't change and that I didn't misremember the name. In fact I had to look into the perf source to make sure that zero fields are indeed not shown. With the patch applied: fomalhaut:~> perf report --stat Aggregated stats: TOTAL events: 495984 MMAP events: 85 LOST events: 0 COMM events: 3389 EXIT events: 1605 THROTTLE events: 2 UNTHROTTLE events: 2 FORK events: 3377 READ events: 0 SAMPLE events: 472629 MMAP2 events: 14753 AUX events: 0 ITRACE_START events: 0 LOST_SAMPLES events: 0 SWITCH events: 0 SWITCH_CPU_WIDE events: 0 NAMESPACES events: 0 ATTR events: 0 EVENT_TYPE events: 0 TRACING_DATA events: 0 BUILD_ID events: 0 FINISHED_ROUND events: 139 ID_INDEX events: 0 AUXTRACE_INFO events: 0 AUXTRACE events: 0 AUXTRACE_ERROR events: 0 THREAD_MAP events: 1 CPU_MAP events: 1 STAT_CONFIG events: 0 STAT events: 0 STAT_ROUND events: 0 EVENT_UPDATE events: 0 TIME_CONV events: 1 FEATURE events: 0 It's pretty clear at a glance that LOST_SAMPLES is present but zero. The original output can still be gotten via: fomalhaut:~> perf report --stat | grep -vw 0 Aggregated stats: TOTAL events: 495984 MMAP events: 85 COMM events: 3389 EXIT events: 1605 THROTTLE events: 2 UNTHROTTLE events: 2 FORK events: 3377 SAMPLE events: 472629 MMAP2 events: 14753 FINISHED_ROUND events: 139 THREAD_MAP events: 1 CPU_MAP events: 1 TIME_CONV events: 1 So I don't think there's any real loss in functionality.

Here are the function calls: ... cmd_stat() +---> add_default_attributes() +---> parse_events(evsel_list, transaction_attrs, NULL); 3rd parameter set to NULL Function parse_events(xx, xx, struct parse_events_error *err) dives into a bison generated scanner and creates parser state information for it first: struct parse_events_state parse_state = { .list = LIST_HEAD_INIT(parse_state.list), .idx = evlist->nr_entries, .error = err, <--- NULL POINTER !!! .evlist = evlist, }; Now various functions inside the bison scanner are called to end up in __parse_events_add_pmu(struct parse_events_state *parse_state, ..) with first parameter being a pointer to above structure definition. Now the PMU event name is not found (because being executed in a VM) and this function tries to create an error message with asprintf(&parse_state->error.str, ....) which references a NULL pointer and dumps core. Fix this by providing a pointer to the necessary error information instead of NULL. Technically only the else part is needed to avoid the core dump, just lets be safe...

For some architectures (like arm), there are architecture- defined events. Sometimes these events may be "recommended" according to the architecture standard, in that the implementer is free ignore the "recommendation" and create its custom event. This patch adds support for parsing standard events from arch-defined JSONs, and fixing up vendor events when they have implemented these events as standard. Support is also ensured that the vendor may implement their own custom events. A new step is added to the pmu events parsing to fix up the vendor events with the arch-standard events. The arch-defined JSONs must be placed in the arch root folder for preprocessing prior to tree JSON processing. In the vendor JSON, to specify that the arch event is supported, the keyword "ArchStdEvent" should be used, like this: [ { "ArchStdEvent": "L1D_CACHE_WR", }, ] Matching is based on the "EventName" field in the architecture JSON. No other JSON objects are strictly required. However, for other objects added, these take precedence over architecture defined standard events, thus supporting separate events which have the same event code.

This is because all the events for the same vendor will be placed in the same pmu events table, which may cause conflict. This conflict would be in the instance that a vendor's custom implemented events do have the same meaning on different platforms, so events in the pmu table would conflict. In addition, per list command may show events which are not even supported for a given platform. This patch adds support for a arch/vendor/platform directory hierarchy, while maintaining backwards-compatibility for existing arch/platform structure. In this, each platform would always have its own pmu events table. In generated file pmu_events.c, each platform table name is in the format pme{_vendor}_platform, like this: struct pmu_events_map pmu_events_map[] = { { .cpuid = "0x00000000420f5160", .version = "v1", .type = "core", .table = pme_cavium_thunderx2 }, { .cpuid = 0, .version = 0, .type = 0, .table = 0, }, }; Signed-off-by: John Garry <john.garry@huawei.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Tested-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Ganapatrao Kulkarni <ganapatrao.kulkarni@cavium.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Shaokun Zhang <zhangshaokun@hisilicon.com> Cc: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Cc: William Cohen <wcohen@redhat.com> Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Cc: linuxarm@huawei.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1520506716-197429-5-git-send-email-john.garry@huawei.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1521047452-28565-1-git-send-email-john.garry@huawei.com [ Add missing limits.h include, fixing the build on at least all Alpine Linux versions tested (3.4 to 3.7 + edge), ] [ Applied a patch to fix reading ./.. directories in XFS, see second Link tag ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Currently a topic subdirectory is supported in the pmu-events dir, in the following sample structure: /arch/platform/subtopic/mysubtopic.json Upto 256 levels of topic subdirectories are supported. So this means that JSONs may be located in a topic dir as well as the platform dir. This topic subdirectory causes problems if we want to add support for a vendor dir in the pmu-events structure (in the form arch/platform/vendor), in that we cannot differentiate between a vendor dir and a topic dir. Since the topic dir feature is not used, drop it so it does not block adding vendor subdirectory support.

When EXPECT macro fails an assertion, the error code is not properly set after the first loop of tokens in function json_events(). This is because err is set to the return value from func function pointer call, which must be 0 to continue to loop, yet it is not reset for for each loop. I assume that this was not the intention, so change the code so err is set appropriately in EXPECT macro itself. In addition to this, the indention in EXPECT macro is tidied. The current indention alludes that the 2 statements following the if statement are in the body, which is not true.

When perf_group_dettach() is called on a group leader, it updates each sibling's group_leader field to point to that sibling, effectively upgrading each siblnig to a group leader. After perf_group_detach has completed, the caller may free the leader event. We only remove siblings from the group leader's sibling_list when the leader has a non-empty group_node. This was fine prior to commit: 8343aae6 ("perf/core: Remove perf_event::group_entry") ... as the sibling's sibling_list would be empty. However, now that we use the sibling_list field as both the list head and the list entry, this leaves each sibling with a non-empty sibling list, including the stale leader event. If perf_group_detach() is subsequently called on a sibling, it will appear to be a group leader, and we'll walk the sibling_list, potentially dereferencing these stale events. In 0day testing, this has been observed to result in kernel panics. Let's avoid this by always removing siblings from the sibling list when we promote them to leaders.

Mark noticed that the change to sibling_list changed some iteration semantics; because previously we used group_list as list entry, sibling events would always have an empty sibling_list. But because we now use sibling_list for both list head and list entry, siblings will report as having siblings. Fix this with a custom for_each_sibling_event() iterator.

Problem and motivation: Once a breakpoint perf event (PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT) is created, there is no flexibility to change the breakpoint type (bp_type), breakpoint address (bp_addr), or breakpoint length (bp_len). The only option is to close the perf event and configure a new breakpoint event. This inflexibility has a significant performance overhead. For example, sampling-based, lightweight performance profilers (and also concurrency bug detection tools), monitor different addresses for a short duration using PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT and change the address (bp_addr) to another address or change the kind of breakpoint (bp_type) from "write" to a "read" or vice-versa or change the length (bp_len) of the address being monitored. The cost of these modifications is prohibitive since it involves unmapping the circular buffer associated with the perf event, closing the perf event, opening another perf event and mmaping another circular buffer. Solution: The new ioctl flag for perf events, PERF_EVENT_IOC_MODIFY_ATTRIBUTES, introduced in this patch takes a pointer to a struct perf_event_attr as an argument to update an old breakpoint event with new address, type, and size. This facility allows retaining a previous mmaped perf events ring buffer and avoids having to close and reopen another perf event. This patch supports only changing PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT event type; future implementations can extend this feature. The patch replicates some of its functionality of modify_user_hw_breakpoint() in kernel/events/hw_breakpoint.c. modify_user_hw_breakpoint cannot be called directly since perf_event_ctx_lock() is already held in _perf_ioctl(). Evidence: Experiments show that the baseline (not able to modify an already created breakpoint) costs an order of magnitude (~10x) more than the suggested optimization (having the ability to dynamically modifying a configured breakpoint via ioctl). When the breakpoints typically do not trap, the speedup due to the suggested optimization is ~10x; even when the breakpoints always trap, the speedup is ~4x due to the suggested optimization. Testing: tests posted at https://github.com/linux-contrib/perf_event_modify_bp demonstrate the performance significance of this patch. Tests also check the functional correctness of the patch.
