This patch adds BPF testcase for testing BPF event filtering. By utilizing the result of 'perf test LLVM', this patch compiles the eBPF sample program then test its ability. The BPF script in 'perf test LLVM' lets only 50% samples generated by epoll_pwait() to be captured. This patch runs that system call for 111 times, so the result should contain 56 samples.

This patch replaces the original toy BPF program with the previously introduced bpf-script-example.c. Dynamically embeddeding it into 'llvm-src-base.c'. The newly introduced BPF program attaches a BPF program to 'sys_epoll_pwait()'. perf itself never use that syscall, so further test can verify their result with it. The program would generate 1 sample in every 2 calls of epoll_pwait() system call. Since the resulting BPF object is useful per se for further tests, test_llvm__fetch_bpf_obj() is introduced for creating BPF objects from source. The LLVM test was rewritten to use it.

A series of bpf loader related error codes were introduced to help error reporting. Functions were improved to return these new error codes. Functions which return pointers were adjusted to encode error codes into return value using the ERR_PTR() interface. bpf_loader_strerror() was improved to convert these error messages to strings. It checks the error codes and calls libbpf_strerror() and strerror_r() accordingly, so caller don't need to consider checking the range of the error code. In bpf__strerror_load(), print kernel version of running kernel and the object's 'version' section to notify user how to fix his/her program. v1 -> v2: Use macro for error code. Fetch error message based on array index, eliminate for-loop. Print version strings. Before: # perf record -e ./test_kversion_nomatch_program.o sleep 1 event syntax error: './test_kversion_nomatch_program.o' \___ Failed to load program: Validate your program and check 'license'/'version' sections in your object SKIP After: # perf record -e ./test_kversion_nomatch_program.o ls event syntax error: './test_kversion_nomatch_program.o' \___ 'version' (4.4.0) doesn't match running kernel (4.3.0) SKIP Signed-off-by: -

In this patch, a series of libbpf specific error numbers and libbpf_strerror() are introduced to help reporting errors. Functions are updated to pass correct the error number through the CHECK_ERR() macro. All users of bpf_object__open{_buffer}() and bpf_program__title() in perf are modified accordingly. In addition, due to the error codes changing, bpf__strerror_load() is also modified to use them. bpf__strerror_head() is also changed accordingly so it can parse libbpf errors. bpf_loader_strerror() is introduced for that purpose, and will be improved by the following patch. load_program() is improved not to dump log buffer if it is empty. log buffer is also used to deduce whether the error was caused by an invalid program or other problem. v1 -> v2: - Using macro for error code. - Fetch error message based on array index, eliminate for-loop. - Use log buffer to detect the reason of failure. 3 new error code are introduced to replace LIBBPF_ERRNO__LOAD. In v1: # perf record -e ./test_ill_program.o ls event syntax error: './test_ill_program.o' \___ Failed to load program: Validate your program and check 'license'/'version' sections in your object SKIP # perf record -e ./test_kversion_nomatch_program.o ls event syntax error: './test_kversion_nomatch_program.o' \___ Failed to load program: Validate your program and check 'license'/'version' sections in your object SKIP # perf record -e ./test_big_program.o ls event syntax error: './test_big_program.o' \___ Failed to load program: Validate your program and check 'license'/'version' sections in your object SKIP In v2: # perf record -e ./test_ill_program.o ls event syntax error: './test_ill_program.o' \___ Kernel verifier blocks program loading SKIP # perf record -e ./test_kversion_nomatch_program.o event syntax error: './test_kversion_nomatch_program.o' \___ Incorrect kernel version SKIP (Will be further improved by following patches) # perf record -e ./test_big_program.o event syntax error: './test_big_program.o' \___ Program too big SKIP Signed-off-by: -

In find_perf_probe_point_from_map(), the 'ret' variable is initialized with -ENOENT but overwritten by the return code of kernel_get_symbol_address_by_name(), and after that it is re-initialized with -ENOENT again. Setting ret=-ENOENT twice looks a bit redundant. This avoids the overwriting and just returns -ENOENT if some error happens to simplify the code. Signed-off-by:

When the browser fails to annotate it is difficult for users to find out what went wrong. Add some errors for objdump failures that are displayed in the UI. Note it would be even better to handle these errors smarter, like falling back to the binary when the debug info is somehow corrupted. But for now just giving a better error is an improvement. Committer note: This works for --stdio, where errors just scroll by the screen: # perf annotate --stdio intel_idle Failure running objdump --start-address=0xffffffff81418290 --stop-address=0xffffffff814183ae -l -d --no-show-raw -S -C /root/.debug/.build-id/28/2777c262e6b3c0451375163c9a81c893218ab1 2>/dev/null|grep -v /root/.debug/.build-id/28/2777c262e6b3c0451375163c9a81c893218ab1|expand Percent | Source code & Disassembly of vmlinux for cycles:pp ------------------------------------------------------------------ And with that one can use that command line to try to find out more about what happened instead of getting a blank screen, an improvement. We need tho to improve this further to get it to work with other UIs, like --tui and --gtk, where it continues showing a blank screen, no messages, as the pr_err() used is enough just for --stdio.

It is possible that find_perf_probe_point_from_map() fails to find a symbol but still returns 0 because of an small error when coding: find_perf_probe_point_from_map() set 'ret' to error code at first, but also use it to hold return value of kernel_get_symbol_address_by_name(). This patch resets 'ret' to error even kernel_get_symbol_address_by_name() success, so if !sym, the whole function returns error correctly. Signed-off-by:

This patch introduces a new macro "__NR_CPUS__" to perf's embedded clang compiler, which represent the number of configured CPUs in this system. BPF programs can use this macro to create a map with the same number of system CPUs. For example: struct bpf_map_def SEC("maps") pmu_map = { .type = BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY, .key_size = sizeof(int), .value_size = sizeof(u32), .max_entries = __NR_CPUS__, }; Signed-off-by: -

(Wang Nan) - Wire up the loaded ebpf object file with associated kprobes, so that it can determine if the kprobes will be filtered or not. (Wang Nan) User visible changes: - Add cmd string table to decode sys_bpf first arg in 'trace'. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Enable printing of branch stack in 'perf script'. (Stephane Eranian) - Pass the right file with debug info to libunwind. (Rabin Vincent) Build Fixes: - Make sure fixdep is built before libbpf, fixing a race.

Any CFLAGS or LDFLAGS set by the user need to be passed to the feature build command. This many include for example -I or -L to point to libraries and include files in custom paths. In most of the test-*.bin rules in build/feature/Makefile, we use the BUILD macro which always sends in CFLAGS and LDFLAGS. The libiberty build line however doesn't use the BUILD macro and thus needs to send in CFLAGS and LDFLAGS explicitly. Without this, when using custom CFLAGS/LDFLAGS, libiberty fails to be detected and the perf link fails with something like: LINK perf libbfd.a(bfd.o): In function `bfd_errmsg': bfd.c:(.text+0x168): undefined reference to `xstrerror' bbfd.a(opncls.o): In function `_bfd_new_bfd': opncls.c:(.text+0xe8): undefined reference to `objalloc_create' ...

This patch provides infrastructure for passing source files to --event directly using: # perf record --event bpf-file.c command This patch does following works: 1) Allow passing '.c' file to '--event'. parse_events_load_bpf() is expanded to allow caller tell it whether the passed file is source file or object. 2) llvm__compile_bpf() is called to compile the '.c' file, the result is saved into memory. Use bpf_object__open_buffer() to load the in-memory object. Introduces a bpf-script-example.c so we can manually test it: # perf record --clang-opt "-DLINUX_VERSION_CODE=0x40200" --event ./bpf-script-example.c sleep 1 Note that '--clang-opt' must put before '--event'. Futher patches will merge it into a testcase so can be tested automatically.

This is the final patch which makes basic BPF filter work. After applying this patch, users are allowed to use BPF filter like: # perf record --event ./hello_world.o ls A bpf_fd field is appended to 'struct evsel', and setup during the callback function add_bpf_event() for each 'probe_trace_event'. PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF ioctl is used to attach eBPF program to a newly created perf event. The file descriptor of the eBPF program is passed to perf record using previous patches, and stored into evsel->bpf_fd. It is possible that different perf event are created for one kprobe events for different CPUs. In this case, when trying to call the ioctl, EEXIST will be return. This patch doesn't treat it as an error. Committer note: The bpf proggie used so far: __attribute__((section("fork=_do_fork"), used)) int fork(void *ctx) { return 0; } char _license[] __attribute__((section("license"), used)) = "GPL"; int _version __attribute__((section("version"), used)) = 0x40300; failed to produce any samples, even with forks happening and it being running in system wide mode. That is because now the filter is being associated, and the code above always returns zero, meaning that all forks will be probed but filtered away ;-/ Change it to 'return 1;' instead and after that: # trace --no-syscalls --event /tmp/foo.o 0.000 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) 2.333 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) 3.725 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) 4.550 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) ^C# And it works with all tools, including 'perf trace'.

This patch improves perf script by enabling printing of the branch stack via the 'brstack' and 'brstacksym' arguments to the field selection option -F. The option is off by default and operates only if the perf.data file has branch stack content. The branches are printed in to/from pairs. The most recent branch is printed first. The number of branch entries vary based on the underlying hardware and filtering used. The brstack prints FROM/TO addresses in raw hexadecimal format. The brstacksym prints FROM/TO addresses in symbolic form wherever possible. $ perf script -F ip,brstack 5d3000 0x401aa0/0x5d2000/M/-/-/-/0 ... $ perf script -F ip,brstacksym 4011e0 noploop+0x0/noploop+0x0/P/-/-/0 The notation F/T/M/X/A/C describes the attributes of the branch.

This patch creates a 'struct perf_evsel' for every probe in a BPF object file(s) and fills 'struct evlist' with them. The previously introduced dummy event is now removed. After this patch, the following command: # perf record --event filter.o ls Can trace on each of the probes defined in filter.o. The core of this patch is bpf__foreach_tev(), which calls a callback function for each 'struct probe_trace_event' event for a bpf program with each associated file descriptors. The add_bpf_event() callback creates evsels by calling parse_events_add_tracepoint(). Since bpf-loader.c will not be built if libbpf is turned off, an empty bpf__foreach_tev() is defined in bpf-loader.h to avoid build errors. Committer notes: Before: # /tmp/oldperf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a usleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.198 MB perf.data ] # perf evlist /tmp/foo.o # perf evlist -v /tmp/foo.o: type: 1, size: 112, config: 0x9, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1 I.e. we create just the PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE (type: 1), PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY(config 0x9) event, now, with this patch: # perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a usleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.210 MB perf.data ] # perf evlist -v perf_bpf_probe:fork: type: 2, size: 112, config: 0x6bd, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 1, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD|RAW, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1 # We now have a PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE (type: 1), but the config states 0x6bd, which is how, after setting up the event via the kprobes interface, the 'perf_bpf_probe:fork' event is accessible via the perf_event_open syscall. This is all transient, as soon as the 'perf record' session ends, these probes will go away. To see how it looks like, lets try doing a neverending session, one that expects a control+C to end: # perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a So, with that in place, we can use 'perf probe' to see what is in place: # perf probe -l perf_bpf_probe:fork (on _do_fork@acme/git/linux/kernel/fork.c) We also can use debugfs: [root@felicio ~]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events p:perf_bpf_probe/fork _text+638512 Ok, now lets stop and see if we got some forks: [root@felicio linux]# perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.325 MB perf.data (111 samples) ] [root@felicio linux]# perf script sshd 1271 [003] 81797.507678: perf_bpf_probe:fork: (ffffffff8109be30) sshd 18309 [000] 81797.524917: perf_bpf_probe:fork: (ffffffff8109be30) sshd 18309 [001] 81799.381603: perf_bpf_probe:fork: (ffffffff8109be30) sshd 18309 [001] 81799.408635: perf_bpf_probe:fork: (ffffffff8109be30) <SNIP> Sure enough, we have 111 forks :-) Callchains seems to work as well: # perf report --stdio --no-child # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # # Total Lost Samples: 0 # # Samples: 562 of event 'perf_bpf_probe:fork' # Event count (approx.): 562 # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ........ ................ ............ # 44.66% sh [kernel.vmlinux] [k] _do_fork | ---_do_fork entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath __libc_fork make_child 26.16% make [kernel.vmlinux] [k] _do_fork <SNIP> # Signed-off-by: -

This patch introduces bpf__{un,}probe() functions to enable callers to create kprobe points based on section names a BPF program. It parses the section names in the program and creates corresponding 'struct perf_probe_event' structures. The parse_perf_probe_command() function is used to do the main parsing work. The resuling 'struct perf_probe_event' is stored into program private data for further using. By utilizing the new probing API, this patch creates probe points during event parsing. To ensure probe points be removed correctly, register an atexit hook so even perf quit through exit() bpf__clear() is still called, so probing points are cleared. Note that bpf_clear() should be registered before bpf__probe() is called, so failure of bpf__probe() can still trigger bpf__clear() to remove probe points which are already probed. strerror style error reporting scaffold is created by this patch. bpf__strerror_probe() is the first error reporting function in bpf-loader.c.

By introducing new rules in tools/perf/util/parse-events.[ly], this patch enables 'perf record --event bpf_file.o' to select events by an eBPF object file. It calls parse_events_load_bpf() to load that file, which uses bpf__prepare_load() and finally calls bpf_object__open() for the object files. After applying this patch, commands like: # perf record --event foo.o sleep become possible. However, at this point it is unable to link any useful things onto the evsel list because the creating of probe points and BPF program attaching have not been implemented. Before real events are possible to be extracted, to avoid perf report error because of empty evsel list, this patch link a dummy evsel. The dummy event related code will be removed when probing and extracting code is ready. Commiter notes: Using it: $ ls -la foo.o ls: cannot access foo.o: No such file or directory $ perf record --event foo.o sleep libbpf: failed to open foo.o: No such file or directory event syntax error: 'foo.o' \___ BPF object file 'foo.o' is invalid (add -v to see detail) Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] -e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events $ $ file /tmp/build/perf/perf.o /tmp/build/perf/perf.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped $ perf record --event /tmp/build/perf/perf.o sleep libbpf: /tmp/build/perf/perf.o is not an eBPF object file event syntax error: '/tmp/build/perf/perf.o' \___ BPF object file '/tmp/build/perf/perf.o' is invalid (add -v to see detail) Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] -e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events $ $ file /tmp/foo.o /tmp/foo.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, no machine, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped $ perf record --event /tmp/foo.o sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.013 MB perf.data ] $ perf evlist /tmp/foo.o $ perf evlist -v /tmp/foo.o: type: 1, size: 112, config: 0x9, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1 $ So, type 1 is PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE, config 0x9 is PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY, ok. $ perf report --stdio Error: The perf.data file has no samples! # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # $ Signed-off-by: -
