This patch adds an index parameter to the get_event_constraint() x86_pmu callback. It is expected to represent the index of the event in the cpuc->event_list[] array. When the callback is used for fake_cpuc (evnet validation), then the index must be -1. The motivation for passing the index is to use it to index into another cpuc array. Signed-off-by:

Add support for Branch Trace Store (BTS) via kernel perf event infrastructure. The difference with the existing implementation of BTS support is that this one is a separate PMU that exports events' trace buffers to userspace by means of AUX area of the perf buffer, which is zero-copy mapped into userspace. The immediate benefit is that the buffer size can be much bigger, resulting in fewer interrupts and no kernel side copying is involved and little to no trace data loss. Also, kernel code can be traced with this driver. The old way of collecting BTS traces still works. Signed-off-by:

Add support for Intel Processor Trace (PT) to kernel's perf events. PT is an extension of Intel Architecture that collects information about software execuction such as control flow, execution modes and timings and formats it into highly compressed binary packets. Even being compressed, these packets are generated at hundreds of megabytes per second per core, which makes it impractical to decode them on the fly in the kernel. This driver exports trace data by through AUX space in the perf ring buffer, which is zero-copy mapped into userspace for faster data retrieval. Signed-off-by:

Intel PT cannot be used at the same time as LBR or BTS and will cause a general protection fault if they are used together. In order to avoid fixing up GPs in the fast path, instead we disallow creating LBR/BTS events when PT events are present and vice versa. Signed-off-by:

For counters that generate AUX data that is bound to the context of a running task, such as instruction tracing, the decoder needs to know exactly which task is running when the event is first scheduled in, before the first sched_switch. The decoder's need to know this stems from the fact that instruction flow trace decoding will almost always require program's object code in order to reconstruct said flow and for that we need at least its pid/tid in the perf stream. To single out such instruction tracing pmus, this patch introduces ITRACE PMU capability. The reason this is not part of RECORD_AUX record is that not all pmus capable of generating AUX data need this, and the opposite is *probably* also true. While sched_switch covers for most cases, there are two problems with it: the consumer will need to process events out of order (that is, having found RECORD_AUX, it will have to skip forward to the nearest sched_switch to figure out which task it was, then go back to the actual trace to decode it) and it completely misses the case when the tracing is enabled and disabled before sched_switch, for example, via PERF_EVENT_IOC_DISABLE.

When AUX area gets a certain amount of new data, we want to wake up userspace to collect it. This adds a new control to specify how much data will cause a wakeup. This is then passed down to pmu drivers via output handle's "wakeup" field, so that the driver can find the nearest point where it can generate an interrupt. We repurpose __reserved_2 in the event attribute for this, even though it was never checked to be zero before, aux_watermark will only matter for new AUX-aware code, so the old code should still be fine.

This adds support for overwrite mode in the AUX area, which means "keep collecting data till you're stopped", turning AUX area into a circular buffer, where new data overwrites old data. It does not depend on data buffer's overwrite mode, so that it doesn't lose sideband data that is instrumental for processing AUX data. Overwrite mode is enabled at mapping AUX area read only. Even though aux_tail in the buffer's user page might be user writable, it will be ignored in this mode. A PERF_RECORD_AUX with PERF_AUX_FLAG_OVERWRITE set is written to the perf data stream every time an event writes new data to the AUX area. The pmu driver might not be able to infer the exact beginning of the new data in each snapshot, some drivers will only provide the tail, which is aux_offset + aux_size in the AUX record. Consumer has to be able to tell the new data from the old one, for example, by means of time stamps if such are provided in the trace. Consumer is also responsible for disabling any events that might write to the AUX area (thus potentially racing with the consumer) before collecting the data. Signed-off-by:

For pmus that wish to write data to ring buffer's AUX area, provide perf_aux_output_{begin,end}() calls to initiate/commit data writes, similarly to perf_output_{begin,end}. These also use the same output handle structure. Also, similarly to software counterparts, these will direct inherited events' output to parents' ring buffers. After the perf_aux_output_begin() returns successfully, handle->size is set to the maximum amount of data that can be written wrt aux_tail pointer, so that no data that the user hasn't seen will be overwritten, therefore this should always be called before hardware writing is enabled. On success, this will return the pointer to pmu driver's private structure allocated for this aux area by pmu::setup_aux. Same pointer can also be retrieved using perf_get_aux() while hardware writing is enabled. PMU driver should pass the actual amount of data written as a parameter to perf_aux_output_end(). All hardware writes should be completed and visible before this one is called. Additionally, perf_aux_output_skip() will adjust output handle and aux_head in case some part of the buffer has to be skipped over to maintain hardware's alignment constraints. Nested writers are forbidden and guards are in place to catch such attempts. Signed-off-by: -

Usually, pmus that do, for example, instruction tracing, would only ever be able to have one event per task per cpu (or per perf_event_context). For such pmus it makes sense to disallow creating conflicting events early on, so as to provide consistent behavior for the user. This patch adds a pmu capability that indicates such constraint on event creation. Signed-off-by:

Alexander Shishkin authored
For pmus that don't support scatter-gather for AUX data in hardware, it might still make sense to implement software double buffering to avoid losing data while the user is reading data out. For this purpose, add a pmu capability that guarantees multiple high-order chunks for AUX buffer, so that the pmu driver can do switchover tricks. To make use of this feature, add PERF_PMU_CAP_AUX_SW_DOUBLEBUF to your pmu's capability mask. This will make the ring buffer AUX allocation code ensure that the biggest high order allocation for the aux buffer pages is no bigger than half of the total requested buffer size, thus making sure that the buffer has at least two high order allocations.

This patch introduces "AUX space" in the perf mmap buffer, intended for exporting high bandwidth data streams to userspace, such as instruction flow traces. AUX space is a ring buffer, defined by aux_{offset,size} fields in the user_page structure, and read/write pointers aux_{head,tail}, which abide by the same rules as data_* counterparts of the main perf buffer. In order to allocate/mmap AUX, userspace needs to set up aux_offset to such an offset that will be greater than data_offset+data_size and aux_size to be the desired buffer size. Both need to be page aligned. Then, same aux_offset and aux_size should be passed to mmap() call and if everything adds up, you should have an AUX buffer as a result. Pages that are mapped into this buffer also come out of user's mlock rlimit plus perf_event_mlock_kb allowance. Signed-off-by: -

Currently, the actual perf ring buffer is one page into the mmap area, following the user page and the userspace follows this convention. This patch adds data_{offset,size} fields to user_page that can be used by userspace instead for locating perf data in the mmap area. This is also helpful when mapping existing or shared buffers if their size is not known in advance. Right now, it is made to follow the existing convention that data_offset == PAGE_SIZE and data_offset + data_size == mmap_size. Signed-off-by: -

For supporting Intel LBR branches filtering, Intel LBR sharing logic mechanism is introduced from commit b36817e8 ("perf/x86: Add Intel LBR sharing logic"). It modifies __intel_shared_reg_get_constraints() to config lbr_sel, which is finally used to set LBR_SELECT. However, the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function is called after intel_pebs_constraints(). The PEBS event will return immediately after intel_pebs_constraints(). So it's impossible to filter branches for PEBS events. This patch moves intel_shared_regs_constraints() ahead of intel_pebs_constraints(). We can safely do that because the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function only returns empty constraint if its rejecting the event, otherwise it returns NULL such that we continue calling intel_pebs_constraints() and x86_get_event_constraint().

So bpf_tracing.o depends on CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL - but that's not its only dependency, it also depends on the tracing infrastructure and on kprobes, without which it will fail to build with: In file included from kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:14:0: kernel/trace/trace.h: In function ‘trace_test_and_set_recursion’: kernel/trace/trace.h:491:28: error: ‘struct task_struct’ has no member named ‘trace_recursion’ unsigned int val = current->trace_recursion; [...] It took quite some time to trigger this build failure, because right now BPF_SYSCALL is very obscure, depends on CONFIG_EXPERT. So also make BPF_SYSCALL more configurable, not just under CONFIG_EXPERT. If BPF_SYSCALL, tracing and kprobes are enabled then enable the bpf_tracing gateway as well. We might want to make this an interactive option later on, although I'd not complicate it unnecessarily: enabling BPF_SYSCALL is enough of an indicator that the user wants BPF support.

One BPF program attaches to kmem_cache_alloc_node() and remembers all allocated objects in the map. Another program attaches to kmem_cache_free() and deletes corresponding object from the map. User space walks the map every second and prints any objects which are older than 1 second. Usage: $ sudo tracex4 Then start few long living processes. The 'tracex4' will print something like this: obj 0xffff880465928000 is 13sec old was allocated at ip ffffffff8105dc32 obj 0xffff88043181c280 is 13sec old was allocated at ip ffffffff8105dc32 obj 0xffff880465848000 is 8sec old was allocated at ip ffffffff8105dc32 obj 0xffff8804338bc280 is 15sec old was allocated at ip ffffffff8105dc32 $ addr2line -fispe vmlinux ffffffff8105dc32 do_fork at fork.c:1665 As soon as processes exit the memory is reclaimed and 'tracex4' prints nothing.

BPF C program attaches to blk_mq_start_request()/blk_update_request() kprobe events to calculate IO latency. For every completed block IO event it computes the time delta in nsec and records in a histogram map: map[log10(delta)*10]++ User space reads this histogram map every 2 seconds and prints it as a 'heatmap' using gray shades of text terminal. Black spaces have many events and white spaces have very few events. Left most space is the smallest latency, right most space is the largest latency in the range. Usage: $ sudo ./tracex3 and do 'sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null' in other terminal. Observe IO latencies and how different activity (like 'make kernel') affects it. Similar experiments can be done for network transmit latencies, syscalls, etc. '-t' flag prints the heatmap using normal ascii characters: $ sudo ./tracex3 -t heatmap of IO latency # - many events with this latency - few events |1us |10us |100us |1ms |10ms |100ms |1s |10s *ooo. *O.#. # 221 . *# . # 125 .. .o#*.. # 55 . . . . .#O # 37 .# # 175 .#*. # 37 # # 199 . . *#*. # 55 *#..* # 42 # # 266 ...***Oo#*OO**o#* . # 629 # # 271 . .#o* o.*o* # 221 . . o* *#O.. # 50 Signed-off-by: -

tracex1_kern.c - C program compiled into BPF. It attaches to kprobe:netif_receive_skb() When skb->dev->name == "lo", it prints sample debug message into trace_pipe via bpf_trace_printk() helper function. tracex1_user.c - corresponding user space component that: - loads BPF program via bpf() syscall - opens kprobes:netif_receive_skb event via perf_event_open() syscall - attaches the program to event via ioctl(event_fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF, prog_fd); - prints from trace_pipe Note, this BPF program is non-portable. It must be recompiled with current kernel headers. kprobe is not a stable ABI and BPF+kprobe scripts may no longer be meaningful when kernel internals change. No matter in what way the kernel changes, neither the kprobe, nor the BPF program can ever crash or corrupt the kernel, assuming the kprobes, perf and BPF subsystem has no bugs. The verifier will detect that the program is using bpf_trace_printk() and the kernel will print 'this is a DEBUG kernel' warning banner, which means that bpf_trace_printk() should be used for debugging of the BPF program only. Usage: $ sudo tracex1 ping-19826 [000] d.s2 63103.382648: : skb ffff880466b1ca00 len 84 ping-19826 [000] d.s2 63103.382684: : skb ffff880466b1d300 len 84 ping-19826 [000] d.s2 63104.382533: : skb ffff880466b1ca00 len 84 ping-19826 [000] d.s2 63104.382594: : skb ffff880466b1d300 len 84 Signed-off-by: -

Debugging of BPF programs needs some form of printk from the program, so let programs call limited trace_printk() with %d %u %x %p modifiers only. Similar to kernel modules, during program load verifier checks whether program is calling bpf_trace_printk() and if so, kernel allocates trace_printk buffers and emits big 'this is debug only' banner.

BPF programs, attached to kprobes, provide a safe way to execute user-defined BPF byte-code programs without being able to crash or hang the kernel in any way. The BPF engine makes sure that such programs have a finite execution time and that they cannot break out of their sandbox. The user interface is to attach to a kprobe via the perf syscall: struct perf_event_attr attr = { .type = PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT, .config = event_id, ... }; event_fd = perf_event_open(&attr,...); ioctl(event_fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF, prog_fd); 'prog_fd' is a file descriptor associated with BPF program previously loaded. 'event_id' is an ID of the kprobe created. Closing 'event_fd': close(event_fd); ... automatically detaches BPF program from it. BPF programs can call in-kernel helper functions to: - lookup/update/delete elements in maps - probe_read - wraper of probe_kernel_read() used to access any kernel data structures BPF programs receive 'struct pt_regs *' as an input ('struct pt_regs' is architecture dependent) and return 0 to ignore the event and 1 to store kprobe event into the ring buffer. Note, kprobes are a fundamentally _not_ a stable kernel ABI, so BPF programs attached to kprobes must be recompiled for every kernel version and user must supply correct LINUX_VERSION_CODE in attr.kern_version during bpf_prog_load() call.

Socket filter code and other subsystems with upcoming eBPF support should not need to deal with the fact that we have CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL defined or not. Having the bpf syscall as a config option is a nice thing and I'd expect it to stay that way for expert users (I presume one day the default setting of it might change, though), but code making use of it should not care if it's actually enabled or not. Instead, hide this via header files and let the rest deal with it. Signed-off-by:

But that was more a transitional patch while moving stuff out from perf_session.c to ordered_events.c and possibly not even needed by then, as we could use the container_of() method and instead of having the nr_unordered_samples stats in events_stats, we can have it in ordered_samples.

Even when it is not used to actually reorder events, some of its fields are used, like session->ordered_events->tool, to shorten function signatures where tool, for instance, was being passed, as the tool is needed for the ordered_events code, we need it there and might as well use it for other perf_session needs. This fixes a problem where 'perf script' had some condition that made session->ordered_events not to be initialized even with its script->tool ordered_events related flags asking for it to be, which looks like another bug and needs to be investigated further. Always initializing session->ordered_events at least leaves the current assumptions in place, so do it now. Reported-by:

As this commit breaks callchains on s390x (symbols not getting resolved, observed when profiling the kernel), this statement is wrong.

Disabling libbabeltrace check by default and replacing the NO_LIBBABELTRACE make variable with LIBBABELTRACE. Users wanting the libbabeltrace feature need to build via: $ make LIBBABELTRACE=1 The reason for this is that the libababeltrace interface we use (version 1.3) hasn't been packaged/released yet, thus the failing feature check only slows down build and confuses other (non CTF) developers.
