      perf, x86: Fix hw_perf_enable() event assignment · 45e16a68
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      What happens is that we schedule badly like:
      
      <...>-1987  [019]   280.252808: x86_pmu_start: event-46/1300c0: idx: 0

      <...>-1987  [019]   280.252837: x86_pmu_start: event-51/1300c0: idx: 32 *FAIL*
      
      This happens because we only iterate the n_running events in the first
      pass, and reset their index to -1 if they don't match to force a
      re-assignment.
      
      Now, in our RR example, n_running == 0 because we fully unscheduled, so
      event-50 will retain its idx==32, even though in scheduling it will have
      gotten idx=0, and we don't trigger the re-assign path.
      
      The easiest way to fix this is the below patch, which simply validates
      the full assignment in the second pass.

      Without this change, the install path is relative to
      prefix/DESTDIR where prefix is automatically set to $HOME.
      
      This can produce unexpected results. For example:
      
        make -C tools/perf DESTDIR=/home/jkacur/tmp install-man
      
      creates the directory:		/home/jkacur/home/jkacur/tmp/share/...

      perf tools: Fix sparse CPU numbering related bugs · a12b51c4
      Paul Mackerras authored
      At present, the perf subcommands that do system-wide monitoring
      (perf stat, perf record and perf top) don't work properly unless
      the online cpus are numbered 0, 1, ..., N-1.  These tools ask
      for the number of online cpus with sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN)
      and then try to create events for cpus 0, 1, ..., N-1.
      
      This creates problems for systems where the online cpus are
      numbered sparsely.  For example, a POWER6 system in
      single-threaded mode (i.e. only running 1 hardware thread per
      core) will have only even-numbered cpus online.
      
      This fixes the problem by reading the /sys/devices/system/cpu/online
      file to find out which cpus are online.  The code that does that is in
      tools/perf/util/cpumap.[ch], and consists of a read_cpu_map()
      function that sets up a cpumap[] array and returns the number of
      online cpus.  If /sys/devices/system/cpu/online can't be read or
      can't be parsed successfully, it falls back to using sysconf to
      ask how many cpus are online and sets up an identity map in cpumap[].
      
      The perf record, perf stat and perf top code then calls
      read_cpu_map() in the system-wide monitoring case (instead of
      sysconf) and uses cpumap[] to get the cpu numbers to pass to
      perf_event_open.

      perf_event: Fix oops triggered by cpu offline/online · 220b140b
      Paul Mackerras authored
      Anton Blanchard found that he could reliably make the kernel hit a
      BUG_ON in the slab allocator by taking a cpu offline and then online
      while a system-wide perf record session was running.
      
      The reason is that when the cpu comes up, we completely reinitialize
      the ctx field of the struct perf_cpu_context for the cpu.  If there is
      a system-wide perf record session running, then there will be a struct
      perf_event that has a reference to the context, so its refcount will
      be 2.  (The perf_event has been removed from the context's group_entry
      and event_entry lists by perf_event_exit_cpu(), but that doesn't
      remove the perf_event's reference to the context and doesn't decrement
      the context's refcount.)
      
      When the cpu comes up, perf_event_init_cpu() gets called, and it calls
      __perf_event_init_context() on the cpu's context.  That resets the
      refcount to 1.  Then when the perf record session finishes and the
      perf_event is closed, the refcount gets decremented to 0 and the
      context gets kfreed after an RCU grace period.  Since the context
      wasn't kmalloced -- it's part of a per-cpu variable -- bad things
      happen.
      
      In fact we don't need to completely reinitialize the context when the
      cpu comes up.  It's sufficient to initialize the context once at boot,
      but we need to do it for all possible cpus.
      
      This moves the context initialization to happen at boot time.  With
      this, we don't trash the refcount and the context never gets kfreed,
      and we don't hit the BUG_ON.

      perf: Take a hot regs snapshot for trace events · c530665c
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      We are taking a wrong regs snapshot when a trace event triggers.
      Either we use get_irq_regs(), which gives us the interrupted
      registers if we are in an interrupt, or we use task_pt_regs()
      which gives us the state before we entered the kernel, assuming
      we are lucky enough to be no kernel thread, in which case
      task_pt_regs() returns the initial set of regs when the kernel
      thread was started.
      
      What we want is different. We need a hot snapshot of the regs,
      so that we can get the instruction pointer to record in the
      sample, the frame pointer for the callchain, and some other
      things.
      
      Let's use the new perf_fetch_caller_regs() for that.
      
      Comparison with perf record -e lock: -R -a -f -g
      Before:
      
              perf  [kernel]                   [k] __do_softirq
                     |
                     --- __do_softirq
                        |
                        |--55.16%-- __open
                        |
                         --44.84%-- __write_nocancel
      
      After:
      
                  perf  [kernel]           [k] perf_tp_event
                     |
                     --- perf_tp_event
                        |
                        |--41.07%-- lock_acquire
                        |          |
                        |          |--39.36%-- _raw_spin_lock
                        |          |          |
                        |          |          |--7.81%-- hrtimer_interrupt
                        |          |          |          smp_apic_timer_interrupt
                        |          |          |          apic_timer_interrupt
      
      The old case was producing unreliable callchains. Now having
      right frame and instruction pointers, we have the trace we
      want.
      
      Also syscalls and kprobe events already have the right regs,
      let's use them instead of wasting a retrieval.

      perf: Introduce new perf_fetch_caller_regs() for hot regs snapshot · 5331d7b8
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      Events that trigger overflows by interrupting a context can
      use get_irq_regs() or task_pt_regs() to retrieve the state
      when the event triggered. But this is not the case for some
      other class of events like trace events as tracepoints are
      executed in the same context than the code that triggered
      the event.
      
      It means we need a different api to capture the regs there,
      namely we need a hot snapshot to get the most important
      informations for perf: the instruction pointer to get the
      event origin, the frame pointer for the callchain, the code
      segment for user_mode() tests (we always use __KERNEL_CS as
      trace events always occur from the kernel) and the eflags
      for further purposes.
      
      v2: rename perf_save_regs to perf_fetch_caller_regs as per
      Masami's suggestion.

      The problem is not that much the trace recursion itself, as we have a
      recursion protection already (though it's always wasteful to recurse).
      But the trace events are outside the lockdep recursion protection, then
      each lockdep event triggers a lock trace, which will trigger two
      other lockdep events. Here the recursive lock trace event won't
      be taken because of the trace recursion, so the recursion stops there
      but lockdep will still analyse these new events:
      
      To sum up, for each lockdep events we have:
      
      	lock_*()
      	     |
                   trace lock_acquire

      And you can repeat the above two times as we have two rcu read side
      sections when we submit an event.
      
      This is fixed in this patch by moving the lock trace event under
      the lockdep recursion protection.

      perf report: Print the map table just after samples for which no map was found · 65f2ed2b
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      If -vv is used just the map table will be printed, -vvv will
      print the symbol table too, with it we can see that we have a
      bug where some samples are not being resolved to a map when we
      get them in the perf.data stream, but after we have it all
      processed, we can find the right map, some reordering probably
      is happening.
      
      Upcoming patches will provide ways to ask for most PERF_SAMPLE_
      conditional samples to be taken for !PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE events
      too, then we'll be able to ask for PERF_SAMPLE_TIME and
      PERF_SAMPLE_CPU to help diagnose this.

      Eric B Munson authored
      Perf report does not handle multiple events being reported, even
      though perf record stores them properly on disk.  This patch
      addresses that issue by adding the logic to perf report to use
      the event stream id that is saved by record and the new data
      structures to seperate the event streams and report them
      individually.

      perf, x86: Fix double enable calls · f3d46b2e

      hw_perf_enable() would enable already enabled events.
      
      This causes problems with code that assumes that ->enable/->disable calls

      What happens is that events that were already running and left in place
