      tools arch uapi: Update asm-generic/unistd.h and arm64 unistd.h copies · 8dd4c0f6
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      To get the changes in:

  82b355d1 ("y2038: Remove newstat family from default syscall set")

Which will make the syscall table used by 'perf trace' for arm64 to be
updated from the changes in that patch.

This silences these perf build warnings:

So nothing that entails changes in tools/, that so far uses fs.h to

      perf callchain: Honour the ordering of PERF_CONTEXT_{USER,KERNEL,etc} · e9024d51
      David S. Miller authored 
      When processing using 'perf report -g caller', which is the default, we
ended up reverting the callchain entries received from the kernel, but
simply reverting throws away the information that tells that from a
point onwards the addresses are for userspace, kernel, guest kernel,
guest user, hypervisor.

The idea is that if we are walking backwards, for each cluster of
non-cpumode entries we have to first scan backwards for the next one and
use that for the cluster.

This seems silly and more expensive than it needs to be but it is enough
for a initial fix.

The code here is really complicated because it is intimately intertwined
with the lbr and branch handling, as well as this callchain order,
further fixes will be needed to properly take into account the cpumode
in those cases.

Another problem with ORDER_CALLER is that the NULL "0" IP that is at the
end of most callchains shows up at the top of the histogram because
every callchain contains it and with ORDER_CALLER it is the first entry.

      perf cs-etm: Correct CPU mode for samples · d6c9c05f
      Leo Yan authored 
      Since commit edeb0c90 ("perf tools: Stop fallbacking to kallsyms for
vdso symbols lookup"), the kernel address cannot be properly parsed to
kernel symbol with command 'perf script -k vmlinux'.  The reason is
CoreSight samples is always to set CPU mode as PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER,
thus it fails to find corresponding map/dso in below flows:

  process_sample_event()
    `-> machine__resolve()
	  `-> thread__find_map(thread, sample->cpumode, sample->ip, al);

In this flow it needs to pass argument 'sample->cpumode' to tell what's
the CPU mode, before it always passed PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER but without
any failure until the commit edeb0c90 ("perf tools: Stop fallbacking
to kallsyms for vdso symbols lookup") has been merged.  The reason is
even with the wrong CPU mode the function thread__find_map() firstly
fails to find map but it will rollback to find kernel map for vdso
symbols lookup.  In the latest code it has removed the fallback code,
thus if CPU mode is PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER then it cannot find map
anymore with kernel address.

This patch is to correct samples CPU mode setting, it creates a new
helper function cs_etm__cpu_mode() to tell what's the CPU mode based on
the address with the info from machine structure; this patch has a bit
extension to check not only kernel and user mode, but also check for
host/guest and hypervisor mode.  Finally this patch uses the function in
instruction and branch samples and also apply in cs_etm__mem_access()
for a minor polishing.

      perf unwind: Take pgoff into account when reporting elf to libdwfl · 1fe627da
      Milian Wolff authored 
      libdwfl parses an ELF file itself and creates mappings for the
individual sections. perf on the other hand sees raw mmap events which
represent individual sections. When we encounter an address pointing
into a mapping with pgoff != 0, we must take that into account and
report the file at the non-offset base address.

This fixes unwinding with libdwfl in some cases. E.g. for a file like:

```

using namespace std;

mutex g_mutex;

double worker()
{
    lock_guard<mutex> guard(g_mutex);
    uniform_real_distribution<double> uniform(-1E5, 1E5);
    default_random_engine engine;
    double s = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < 1000; ++i) {
        s += norm(complex<double>(uniform(engine), uniform(engine)));
    }
    cout << s << endl;
    return s;
}

int main()
{
    vector<std::future<double>> results;
    for (int i = 0; i < 10000; ++i) {
        results.push_back(async(launch::async, worker));
    }
    return 0;
}
```

Compile it with `g++ -g -O2 -lpthread cpp-locking.cpp  -o cpp-locking`,
then record it with `perf record --call-graph dwarf -e
sched:sched_switch`.

When you analyze it with `perf script` and libunwind, you should see:

Note that the backtrace is still stopping too early, when compared to
the nice results obtained via libunwind. It's unclear so far what the
reason for that is.

Committer note:

Further comment by Milian on the thread started on the Link: tag below:

 ---
The remaining issue is due to a bug in elfutils:

https://sourceware.org/ml/elfutils-devel/2018-q4/msg00089.html

With both patches applied, libunwind and elfutils produce the same output for
the above scenario.

      perf top: Do not use overwrite mode by default · 218d6111
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      Enabling --overwrite mode allows us to to use just the most recent
records, which helps in high core count machines such as Knights
Landing/Mill, but right now is being disabled by default as the pausing
used in this technique is leading to loss of metadata events such as
PERF_RECORD_MMAP which makes 'perf top' unable to resolve samples,
leading to lots of unknown samples appearing on the UI.

Enabling this may be useful if you are in such machines and profiling a
workload that doesn't creates short lived threads and/or doesn't uses
many executable mmap operations.

Work is being planed to solve this situation, till then, this will
remain disabled by default.

      perf top: Allow disabling the overwrite mode · 4e303fbe
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      In ebebbf08 ("perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite mode") we
forgot to leave a way to disable that new default, add a --overwrite
option that can be disabled using --no-overwrite, since the code already
in such a way that we can readily disable this mode.

This is useful when investigating bugs with this mode like the recent
report from David Miller where lots of unknown symbols appear due to
disabling the events while processing them which disables all record
types, not just PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE, which makes it impossible to resolve
maps when we lose PERF_RECORD_MMAP records.

This can be easily seen while building a kernel, when there are lots of
short lived processes.

      perf trace: Beautify mount's first pathname arg · 23c07a23
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      The pathname beautifiers so far support just one augmented pathname per
syscall, so do it just for mount's first arg, later this will get fixed.

With:

  # perf probe -l
  probe:vfs_getname    (on getname_flags:73@acme/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname)
  #

Later this will get added to augmented_syscalls.c (eBPF):

In one xterm:

  # perf trace -e mount,umount
  2687.331 ( 3.544 ms): mount/8892 mount(dev_name: /mnt, dir_name: 0x561f9ac184a0, type: 0x561f9ac1b170, flags: BIND) = 0
  3912.126 ( 8.807 ms): umount/8895 umount2(name: /mnt) = 0
  ^C#

In the other:

  $ sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt
  $ sudo umount /mnt

      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      By using the SCA_FILENAME beautifier, that works when either the

      perf trace: Consider syscall aliases too · f932184e
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      When trying to trace the 'umount' syscall on x86_64 I noticed that it
was failing:

  # trace -e umount umount /mnt
  event syntax error: 'umount'
                       \___ parser error
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

   Usage: perf trace [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf trace [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
      or: perf trace record [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf trace record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

      -e, --event <event>   event/syscall selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
  #

This is because in the x86-64 we have it just as 'umount2':

  $ grep umount arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl
  166	common	umount2			__x64_sys_umount
  $

So if the syscall name fails, try fallbacking to looking at the aliases
we have in the syscall_fmts table to then re-lookup, now:

  # trace -e umount umount -f /mnt
  umount: /mnt: not mounted.
     1.759 ( 0.004 ms): umount/18365 umount2(name: 0x55fbfcbc4480, flags: 1) = -1 EINVAL Invalid argument
  #

Time to beautify the flags arg :-)

      perf trace beauty: Allow syscalls to mask an argument before considering it · 496fd346
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      Take mount's 'flags' arg, to cope with this semantic, as defined in do_mount in fs/namespace.c:

  /*
   * Pre-0.97 versions of mount() didn't have a flags word.  When the
   * flags word was introduced its top half was required to have the
   * magic value 0xC0ED, and this remained so until 2.4.0-test9.
   * Therefore, if this magic number is present, it carries no
   * information and must be discarded.
   */

We need to mask this arg, and then see if it is zero, when we simply
don't print the arg name and value.

The next patch will use this for mount's 'flag' arg.

      It'll use tools/include copy of linux/fs.h to generate a table to be
used by tools, initially by the 'mount' and 'umount' beautifiers in
'perf trace', but that could also be used to translate from a string
constant to the integer value to be used in a eBPF or tracefs tracepoint
filter.

When used without any args it produces:

      i2c-hid: properly terminate i2c_hid_dmi_desc_override_table[] array · b59dfdae
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Commit 9ee3e066 ("HID: i2c-hid: override HID descriptors for certain
devices") added a new dmi_system_id quirk table to override certain HID
report descriptors for some systems that lack them.

But the table wasn't properly terminated, causing the dmi matching to
walk off into la-la-land, and starting to treat random data as dmi
descriptor pointers, causing boot-time oopses if you were at all
unlucky.

Terminate the array.

We really should have some way to just statically check that arrays that
should be terminated by an empty entry actually are so.  But the HID
people really should have caught this themselves, rather than have me
deal with an oops during the merge window.  Tssk, tssk.
