      perf annotate: Fix getting source line failure · 11db1ad4
      Wei Li authored 
      The output of "perf annotate -l --stdio xxx" changed since commit 425859ff
("perf annotate: No need to calculate notes->start twice") removed notes->start
assignment in symbol__calc_lines(). It will get failed in
find_address_in_section() from symbol__tty_annotate() subroutine as the
a2l->addr is wrong. So the annotate summary doesn't report the line number of
source code correctly.

Before fix:

  liwei@euler:~/main_code/hulk_work/hulk/tools/perf$ cat common_while_1.c
  void hotspot_1(void)
  {
	volatile int i;

	for (i = 0; i < 0x10000000; i++);
	for (i = 0; i < 0x10000000; i++);
	for (i = 0; i < 0x10000000; i++);
  }

  int main(void)
  {
	hotspot_1();

	return 0;
  }
  liwei@euler:~/main_code/hulk_work/hulk/tools/perf$ gcc common_while_1.c -g -o common_while_1

      perf trace: Allow dumping a BPF map after setting up BPF events · ff7a4f98
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      Initial use case:

Dumping the maps setup by tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c,
which so far are just booleans, showing just non-zeroed entries:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [llvm]
	dump-obj = true
	clang-opt = -g
  [trace]
	#add_events = /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
	add_events = /wb/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
  $ date
  Tue Feb 19 16:29:33 -03 2019
  $ ls -la /wb/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
  -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 14048 Jan 24 12:09 /wb/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
  $ file /wb/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
  /wb/augmented_raw_syscalls.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, eBPF, version 1 (SYSV), with debug_info, not stripped
  $
  # trace -e recvmmsg,sendmmsg --map-dump foobar
  ERROR: BPF map "foobar" not found
  # trace -e recvmmsg,sendmmsg --map-dump filtered_pids
  ERROR: BPF map "filtered_pids" not found
  # trace -e recvmmsg,sendmmsg --map-dump pids_filtered
  [2583] = 1,
  [2267] = 1,
  ^Z
  [1]+  Stopped                 trace -e recvmmsg,sendmmsg --map-dump pids_filtered
  # pidof trace
  2267
  # ps ax|grep gnome-terminal|grep -v grep
  2583 ?        Ssl   58:33 /usr/libexec/gnome-terminal-server
  ^C
  # trace -e recvmmsg,sendmmsg --map-dump syscalls
  [299] = 1,
  [307] = 1,
  ^C
  # grep x64_recvmmsg arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl
  299	64	recvmmsg		__x64_sys_recvmmsg
  # grep x64_sendmmsg arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl
  307	64	sendmmsg		__x64_sys_sendmmsg
  #

Next step probably will be something like 'perf stat's --interval-print and
--interval-clear.

      perf bpf: Add bpf_map dumper · d19f8564
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      At some point I'll suggest moving this to libbpf, for now I'll
experiment with ways to dump BPF maps set by events in 'perf trace',
starting with a very basic dumper for the current very limited needs
of the augmented_raw_syscalls code: dumping booleans.

Having functions that apply to the map keys and values and do table
lookup in things like syscall id to string tables should come next.

      perf test: Fix failure of 'evsel-tp-sched' test on s390 · 03d30971
      Thomas Richter authored 
      Commit 489338a7 ("perf tests evsel-tp-sched: Fix bitwise operator")
causes test case 14 "Parse sched tracepoints fields" to fail on s390.

This test succeeds on x86.

In fact this test now fails on all architectures with type char treated
as type unsigned char.

The root cause is the signed-ness of character arrays in the tracepoints
sched_switch for structure members prev_comm and next_comm.

On s390 the output of:

 [root@m35lp76 perf]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/format
 name: sched_switch
 ID: 287
 format:
   field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2;	signed:0;
   ...
   field:char prev_comm[16]; offset:8; size:16;	signed:0;
   ...
   field:char next_comm[16]; offset:40; size:16; signed:0;

reveals the character arrays prev_comm and next_comm are per
default unsigned char and have values in the range of 0..255.

On x86 both fields are signed as this output shows:
 [root@f29]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/format
 name: sched_switch
 ID: 287
 format:
   field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2;	signed:0;
   ...
   field:char prev_comm[16]; offset:8; size:16;	signed:1;
   ...
   field:char next_comm[16]; offset:40; size:16; signed:1;

and the character arrays prev_comm and next_comm are per default signed
char and have values in the range of -1..127.  The implementation of
type char is architecture specific.

Since the character arrays in both tracepoints sched_switch and
sched_wakeup should contain ascii characters, simply omit the check for
signedness in the test case.

Output before:

  [root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf test -F 14
  14: Parse sched tracepoints fields                        :
  --- start ---
  sched:sched_switch: "prev_comm" signedness(0) is wrong, should be 1
  sched:sched_switch: "next_comm" signedness(0) is wrong, should be 1
  sched:sched_wakeup: "comm" signedness(0) is wrong, should be 1
  ---- end ----
  14: Parse sched tracepoints fields                        : FAILED!
  [root@m35lp76 perf]#

Output after:

  [root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf test -Fv 14
  14: Parse sched tracepoints fields                        :
  --- start ---
  ---- end ----
  Parse sched tracepoints fields: Ok

      Jonas Rabenstein authored 
      According to the current documentation the flags section is placed after
the file header itself but the code assumes to find the flags section
after the data section. This change updates the documentation to that
assumption.
