Use of kcore is predicated upon it matching the recorded data. If the kernel has been relocated at boot time (i.e. since the data was recorded) then do not use kcore. Note that it is possible to make a copy of kcore at the time the data is recorded using 'perf buildid-cache'. Then the perf tools will use the copy because it does match the data.

Now that ref_reloc_sym is set up when the kernel map is created, 'perf record' does not need to pass the symbol names to perf_event__synthesize_kernel_mmap() which can read the values needed from ref_reloc_sym directly.

The ref_reloc_sym is always needed for the kernel map in order to check for relocation. Consequently set it up when the kernel map is created. Otherwise it was only being set up by 'perf record'.

Kernel maps map memory addresses to file offsets. For symbol annotation, objdump needs the object VMA addresses. For an unrelocated kernel, that is the same as the memory address. The addresses passed to objdump for symbol annotation did not take into account kernel relocation. This patch fixes that.

Francesco Fusco authored
Commit 71ae8aac ("lib: introduce arch optimized hash library") added an include to <linux/hash.h> for setting up an architecture specific fast hash. Since perf includes directly the non-uapi kernel header, it cannot find <asm/hash.h> on non-x86 and thus prevents perf to be compiled on every architecture other than x86. The problem is the inclusion of <asm/hash.h> in hash.h that results in the following error originating from util/evlist.c: fatal error: asm/hash.h: No such file or directory This commit simply adds an empty <asm/hash.h> stub/file to fix the compile issue on non-x86 architectures. As perf does not use any of these new functions, it fixes the compilation and therefore seems to be the most appropriate solution to go with.

Masami Hiramatsu authored
In map_groups__find_symbol() map->map_ip is used without ensuring the map is loaded. Then the address passed to map->map_ip isn't mapped at the first time. E.g. below code always fails to get a symbol at the first call; addr = /* Somewhere in the kernel text */ symbol_conf.try_vmlinux_path = true; symbol__init(); host_machine = machine__new_host(); sym = machine__find_kernel_function(host_machine, addr, NULL, NULL); /* Note that machine__find_kernel_function calls map_groups__find_symbol */ This ensures it by calling map__load before using it in map_groups__find_symbol().

Josh Boyer authored
The plugindir_SQ definition contains $(prefix) which is not needed as the $(libdir) definition already contains prefix in it. This leads to the path including an extra prefix in it, e.g. /usr/usr/lib64. The -DPLUGIN_DIR defintion includes DESTDIR. This is incorrect, as it sets the plugin search path to include the value of DESTDIR. DESTDIR is a mechanism to install in a non-standard location such as a chroot or an RPM build root. In the RPM case, this leads to the search path being incorrect after the resulting RPM is installed (or in some cases an RPM build failure). Remove both of these unnecessary inclusions.

Namhyung Kim authored
Gaurav reported that perf cannot profile JIT program if it executes the code on heap. This was because current map__new() only handle JIT on anon mappings - extends it to handle no_dso (heap, stack) case too. This patch assumes JIT profiling only provides dynamic function symbols so check the mapping type to distinguish the case. It'd provide no symbols for data mapping - if we need to support symbols on data mappings later it should be changed.

This patch fixes a memory corruption problem with the xyarray when the evsel fds get closed at the end of the run_perf_stat() call. It could be triggered with: # perf stat -a -e power/energy-cores/ ls When cpumask are used by events (.e.g, RAPL or uncores) then the evsel fds are allocated based on the actual number of CPUs monitored. That number can be smaller than the total number of CPUs on the system. The problem arises at the end by perf stat closes the fds twice. When fds are closed, their entry in the xyarray are set to -1. The first close() on the evsel is made from __run_perf_stat() and it uses the actual number of CPUS for the event which is how the xyarray was allocated for. The second is from perf_evlist_close() but that one is on the total number of CPUs in the system, so it assume the xyarray was allocated to cover it. However it was not, and some writes corrupt memory. The fix is in perf_evlist_close() is to first try with the evsel->cpus if present, if not use the evlist->cpus. That fixes the problem.

No need to set evsel->fd to NULL after calling perf_evsel__free_fd(), as this method already does that.

This patch fixes a problem with the handling of the newly introduced optional event unit. The following cmdline caused a segfault: $ perf stat -e cpu/event-0x3c/ ls This patch fixes the problem with the default setting for alias->unit which was eventually causing the segfault.

Tested using kernel tracepoints on a QEMU simulated environment. Kernel support for perf depends on the patch "xtensa: enable HAVE_PERF_EVENTS", which is scheduled for v3.14. Hardware performance counters are not supported under xtensa yet.

If we call perf timechart with -p 0 arguments, it means we don't want any tasks related data. It works, but space for tasks data is reserved in the generated SVG. Remove this unused empty space via passing 0 as count to the open_svg.

Pull scheduler changes from Ingo Molnar: - Add the initial implementation of SCHED_DEADLINE support: a real-time scheduling policy where tasks that meet their deadlines and periodically execute their instances in less than their runtime quota see real-time scheduling and won't miss any of their deadlines. Tasks that go over their quota get delayed (Available to privileged users for now) - Clean up and fix preempt_enable_no_resched() abuse all around the tree - Do sched_clock() performance optimizations on x86 and elsewhere - Fix and improve auto-NUMA balancing - Fix and clean up the idle loop - Apply various cleanups and fixes * 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (60 commits) sched: Fix __sched_setscheduler() nice test sched: Move SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK into attr::sched_flags sched: Fix up attr::sched_priority warning sched: Fix up scheduler syscall LTP fails sched: Preserve the nice level over sched_setscheduler() and sched_setparam() calls sched/core: Fix htmldocs warnings sched/deadline: No need to check p if dl_se is valid sched/deadline: Remove unused variables sched/deadline: Fix sparse static warnings m68k: Fix build warning in mac_via.h sched, thermal: Clean up preempt_enable_no_resched() abuse sched, net: Fixup busy_loop_us_clock() sched, net: Clean up preempt_enable_no_resched() abuse sched/preempt: Fix up missed PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED folding sched/preempt, locking: Rework local_bh_{dis,en}able() sched/clock, x86: Avoid a runtime condition in native_sched_clock() sched/clock: Fix up clear_sched_clock_stable() sched/clock, x86: Use a static_key for sched_clock_stable sched/clock: Remove local_irq_disable() from the clocks sched/clock, x86: Rewrite cyc2ns() to avoid the need to disable IRQs ...
