There is too much boilerplate in the perf_mmap__read*() interfaces. The 'start' and 'end' variables should be stored in struct perf_mmap at initialization. They will be used later. The old 'startp' and 'endp' pointers are used by perf_mmap__read_event() now. They cannot be removed. So the old 'startp/endp' and new 'md->start/md->end' will exist simultaneously now. The old one will be removed later. Signed-off-by:

It has been determined that the map is for overwrite mode (evlist->overwrite_mmap) or non-overwrite mode (evlist->mmap) when calling perf_evlist__alloc_mmap(). Store the information in struct perf_mmap, which will be used later to simplify the perf_mmap__read*() interfaces. Signed-off-by:

Auto-merge for these events was disabled when auto-merging of non-alias events was disabled in commit 63ce8449 (perf stat: Only auto-merge events that are PMU aliases). Non-merging of legacy events is preserved: $ perf stat -ag -e cache-misses,cache-misses sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 86,323 cache-misses 86,323 cache-misses 1.002623307 seconds time elapsed But prefix or glob matching auto-merges the events created: $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 328 l3cache/read-miss/ 1.002627008 seconds time elapsed $ perf stat -a -e l3cache_0_[01]/read-miss/ sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 172 l3cache/read-miss/ 1.002627008 seconds time elapsed As with events created with aliases, auto-merging can be suppressed with the --no-merge option: $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 67 l3cache/read-miss/ 67 l3cache/read-miss/ 63 l3cache/read-miss/ 60 l3cache/read-miss/ 1.002622192 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by:

To simplify creation of events accross multiple instances of the same type of PMU stat supports two methods for creating multiple events from a single event specification: 1. A prefix or glob can be used in the PMU name. 2. Aliases, which are listed immediately after the Kernel PMU events by perf list, are used. When the --no-merge option is passed and these events are displayed individually the PMU name is lost and it's not possible to see which count corresponds to which pmu: $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 67 l3cache/read-miss/ 67 l3cache/read-miss/ 63 l3cache/read-miss/ 60 l3cache/read-miss/ 0.001675706 seconds time elapsed $ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 12 l3cache_read_miss 17 l3cache_read_miss 10 l3cache_read_miss 8 l3cache_read_miss 0.001661305 seconds time elapsed This change adds the original pmu name to the event. For dynamic pmu events the pmu name is restored in the event name: $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 63 l3cache_0_3/read-miss/ 74 l3cache_0_1/read-miss/ 64 l3cache_0_2/read-miss/ 74 l3cache_0_0/read-miss/ 0.001675706 seconds time elapsed For alias events the name is added after the event name: $ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 10 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_3] 12 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_1] 10 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_2] 17 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_0] 0.001661305 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: -

Starting on v4.12 event parsing code for dynamic pmu events already supports prefix-based matching of multiple pmus when creating dynamic events. E.g., in a system with the following dynamic pmus: mypmu_0 mypmu_1 mypmu_2 mypmu_4 passing mypmu/<config>/ as an event spec will result in the creation of the event in all of the pmus. This change expands this matching through the use of fnmatch so glob-like expressions can be used to create events in multiple pmus. E.g., in the system described above if a user only wants to create the event in mypmu_0 and mypmu_1, mypmu_[01]/<config>/ can be passed. Signed-off-by:

I've tested to process the perf man pages with asciidoctor that is picker than asciidoc, and it revealed minor syntax errors in some documents. Namely, the title markers aren't aligned with the previous line, hence asciidoctor didn't recognize as titles. This patch corrects these markers to be processed properly. Signed-off-by:

The usual thing is for a constructor to allocate space for its members, not to require that the caller pass a pre-allocated 'name' and then, at its destructor, to free something not allocated by it. Fix it by making cgroup__new() to receive a const char pointer, then allocate cgroup->name that then can continue to be freed at cgroup__delete(), balancing the alloc/free operations inside the cgroup struct methods. This eases calling evlist__findnew_cgroup() from the custom 'perf trace' cgroup parser, that will only call parse_cgroups() when the '-G cgroup' is passed on the command line after '-e event' entries, when it'll behave just like 'perf stat' and 'perf record', i.e. the previous parse_cgroup() users that mandate that -G only can come after a -e.

So that tools like 'perf trace' can allow the user to set a cgroup to be used for all the evsels still without a crgroup setup by parse_cgroups(), such as the one to use for the syscalls, vfs_getname and other events involved in strace like syscall tracing.

It is not really closing the cgroup, but instead dropping a reference count and if it hits zero, then calling delete, which will, among other cleanup shores, close the cgroup fd. So it is really dropping a reference to that cgroup, and the method name for that is "put", so rename close_cgroup() to cgroup__put() to follow this naming convention.

The changes in dd84441a ("x86/speculation: Use IBRS if available before calling into firmware") don't need any kind of special treatment in the current tools/perf/ codebase, so just update the copy to get rid of the perf build warning: BUILD: Doing 'make -j4' parallel build Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h' Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: David Woodhouse <dwmw@amazon.co.uk> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-mzmuxocrf96v922xkerey3ns@git.kernel.orgSigned-off-by:

In 801e459a ("KVM: x86: Add a framework for supporting MSR-based features") a new ioctl was introduced, which with this sync of the kvm UAPI headers, makes 'perf trace' know about it: $ cd /tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/generated/ioctl/ $ diff -u kvm_ioctl_array.c.old kvm_ioctl_array.c --- /tmp/kvm_ioctl_array.c 2018-03-05 11:55:38.409145056 -0300 +++ /tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/generated/ioctl/kvm_ioctl_array.c 2018-03-05 11:56:17.456153501 -0300 @@ -6,6 +6,7 @@ [0x04] = "GET_VCPU_MMAP_SIZE", [0x05] = "GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID", [0x09] = "GET_EMULATED_CPUID", + [0x0a] = "GET_MSR_FEATURE_INDEX_LIST", [0x40] = "SET_MEMORY_REGION", [0x41] = "CREATE_VCPU", [0x42] = "GET_DIRTY_LOG", So when using 'perf trace -e ioctl' that will appear along with the others, like in this excerpt of a system wide session: 14.556 ( 0.006 ms): CPU 0/KVM/16077 ioctl(fd: 19<anon_inode:kvm-vcpu:0>, cmd: KVM_RUN) = 0 14.565 ( 0.006 ms): CPU 0/KVM/16077 ioctl(fd: 19<anon_inode:kvm-vcpu:0>, cmd: KVM_RUN) = 0 14.573 ( ): CPU 0/KVM/16077 ioctl(fd: 19<anon_inode:kvm-vcpu:0>, cmd: KVM_RUN) ... 34.075 ( 0.016 ms): gnome-shell/2192 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: DRM_I915_GEM_BUSY, arg: 0x7ffe4e73e850) = 0 40.549 ( 0.012 ms): gnome-shell/2192 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: DRM_I915_GEM_BUSY, arg: 0x7ffe4e73ece0) = 0 40.625 ( 0.005 ms): gnome-shell/2192 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: DRM_I915_GEM_BUSY, arg: 0x7ffe4e73e940) = 0 40.632 ( 0.003 ms): gnome-shell/2192 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: DRM_I915_GEM_MADVISE, arg: 0x7ffe4e73e9b0) = 0 This also silences the perf build header copy drift verifier: make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf' BUILD: Doing 'make -j4' parallel build Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h' differs from latest version at 'include/uapi/linux/kvm.h' Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@redhat.com> Cc: Tom Lendacky <thomas.lendacky@amd.com> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-h31oz5g0mt1dh2s2ajq6o6no@git.kernel.orgSigned-off-by:

Currently we can crash perf record when running in pipe mode, like: $ perf record ls | perf report # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # perf: Segmentation fault Error: The - file has no samples! The callstack of the crash is: 0x0000000000515242 in perf_event__synthesize_event_update_name 3513 ev = event_update_event__new(len + 1, PERF_EVENT_UPDATE__NAME, evsel->id[0]); (gdb) bt #0 0x0000000000515242 in perf_event__synthesize_event_update_name #1 0x00000000005158a4 in perf_event__synthesize_extra_attr #2 0x0000000000443347 in record__synthesize #3 0x00000000004438e3 in __cmd_record #4 0x000000000044514e in cmd_record #5 0x00000000004cbc95 in run_builtin #6 0x00000000004cbf02 in handle_internal_command #7 0x00000000004cc054 in run_argv #8 0x00000000004cc422 in main The reason of the crash is that the evsel does not have ids array allocated and the pipe's synthesize code tries to access it. We don't force evsel ids allocation when we have single event, because it's not needed. However we need it when we are in pipe mode even for single event as a key for evsel update event. Fixing this by forcing evsel ids allocation event for single event, when we are in pipe mode. Signed-off-by: -

This first happened with a gcc function, _cpp_lex_token, that has the usual jumps: │1159e6c: ↓ jne 115aa32 <_cpp_lex_token@@Base+0xf92> I.e. jumps to a label inside that function (_cpp_lex_token), and those works, but also this kind: │1159e8b: ↓ jne c469be <cpp_named_operator2name@@Base+0xa72> I.e. jumps to another function, outside _cpp_lex_token, which are not being correctly handled generating as a side effect references to ab->offset[] entries that are set to NULL, so to make this code more robust, check that here. A proper fix for will be put in place, looking at the function name right after the '<' token and probably treating this like a 'call' instruction. For now just don't draw the arrow. Reported-by:
