Intel SHA Extensions are explained in the Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions Programing Reference (Oct 2014). There are 7 new instructions. Add them to the op code map and the perf tools new instructions test. e.g. $ tools/perf/perf test "x86 ins" 39: Test x86 instruction decoder - new instructions : Ok Or to see the details: $ tools/perf/perf test -v "x86 ins" 2>&1 | grep sha Committer note: 3 lines of details, for the curious: $ perf test -v "x86 ins" 2>&1 | grep sha256msg1 | tail -3 Decoded ok: 0f 38 cc 84 08 78 56 34 12 sha256msg1 0x12345678(%rax,%rcx,1),%xmm0 Decoded ok: 0f 38 cc 84 c8 78 56 34 12 sha256msg1 0x12345678(%rax,%rcx,8),%xmm0 Decoded ok: 44 0f 38 cc bc c8 78 56 34 12 sha256msg1 0x12345678(%rax,%rcx,8),%xmm15 $ Signed-off-by:

The MPX instructions are presently not described in the SDM opcode maps, and there are not encoding characters for bnd registers, address method or operand type. So the kernel opcode map is using 'Gv' for bnd registers and 'Ev' for everything else. That is fine because the instruction decoder does not use that information anyway, except as an indication that there is a ModR/M byte. Nevertheless, in some cases the 'Gv' and 'Ev' are the wrong way around, BNDLDX and BNDSTX have 2 operands not 3, and it wouldn't hurt to identify the mandatory prefixes. This has no effect on the decoding of valid instructions, but the addition of the mandatory prefixes will cause some invalid instructions to error out that wouldn't have previously. Note that perf tools has a copy of the instruction decoder and provides a test for new instructions which includes MPX instructions e.g. $ perf test "x86 ins" 39: Test x86 instruction decoder - new instructions : Ok Or to see the details: $ perf test -v "x86 ins" Commiter notes: And to see these MPX instructions specifically: $ perf test -v "x86 ins" 2>&1 | grep bndldx | head -3 Decoded ok: 0f 1a 00 bndldx (%eax),%bnd0 Decoded ok: 0f 1a 05 78 56 34 12 bndldx 0x12345678,%bnd0 Decoded ok: 0f 1a 18 bndldx (%eax),%bnd3 $ perf test -v "x86 ins" 2>&1 | grep bndstx | head -3 Decoded ok: 0f 1b 00 bndstx %bnd0,(%eax) Decoded ok: 0f 1b 05 78 56 34 12 bndstx %bnd0,0x12345678 Decoded ok: 0f 1b 18 bndstx %bnd3,(%eax) $ Signed-off-by:

Add a new test titled: Test x86 instruction decoder - new instructions The purpose of this test is to check the instruction decoder after new instructions have been added. Initially, MPX instructions are tested which are already supported, but the definitions in x86-opcode-map.txt will be tweaked in a subsequent patch, after which this test can be run to verify those changes. The data for the test comes from assembly language instructions in insn-x86-dat-src.c which is converted into bytes by the scripts gen-insn-x86-dat.sh and gen-insn-x86-dat.awk, and included into the test program insn-x86.c as insn-x86-dat-32.c and insn-x86-dat-64.c. The conversion is not done as part of the perf tools build because the test data must be under (git) change control in order for the test to be repeatably-correct. Also it may require a recent version of binutils.

perf tools has a copy of the x86 instruction decoder used by the kernel. The expectation is that the copy will be kept more-or-less in-synch with the kernel version. Consequently it is helpful to know if there are differences. This patch adds a check into the perf tools build so that a diff is done on the sources, and a warning is printed if they are different. Note that the warning is not fatal and the build continues as normal. The check is done as part of building the instruction decoder, so, like a compiler warning, it is not seen unless the instruction decoder has to be re-compiled. e.g. $ make -C tools/perf >/dev/null $ echo "/* blah */" >> tools/perf/util/intel-pt-decoder/inat_types.h $ make -C tools/perf >/dev/null Warning: Intel PT: x86 instruction decoder differs from kernel $ make -C tools/perf >/dev/null $ Signed-off-by:

This patch stores the cpu socket_id and core_id in a perf.data header, and reads them into the perf_env struct when processing perf.data files. The changes modifies the CPU_TOPOLOGY section, making sure it is backward/forward compatible. The patch checks the section size before reading the core and socket ids. It never reads data crossing the section boundary. An old perf binary without this patch can also correctly read the perf.data from a new perf with this patch. Because the new info is added at the end of the cpu_topology section, an old perf tool ignores the extra data. Examples: 1. New perf with this patch read perf.data from an old perf without the patch: $ perf_new report -i perf_old.data --header-only -I ...... # sibling threads : 33 # sibling threads : 34 # sibling threads : 35 # Core ID and Socket ID information is not available # node0 meminfo : total = 32823872 kB, free = 29315548 kB # node0 cpu list : 0-17,36-53 ...... 2. Old perf without the patch reads perf.data from a new perf with the patch: $ perf_old report -i perf_new.data --header-only -I ...... # sibling threads : 33 # sibling threads : 34 # sibling threads : 35 # node0 meminfo : total = 32823872 kB, free = 29190932 kB # node0 cpu list : 0-17,36-53 ...... 3. New perf read new perf.data: $ perf_new report -i perf_new.data --header-only -I ...... # sibling threads : 33 # sibling threads : 34 # sibling threads : 35 # CPU 0: Core ID 0, Socket ID 0 # CPU 1: Core ID 1, Socket ID 0 ...... # CPU 61: Core ID 10, Socket ID 1 # CPU 62: Core ID 11, Socket ID 1 # CPU 63: Core ID 16, Socket ID 1 # node0 meminfo : total = 32823872 kB, free = 29190932 kB # node0 cpu list : 0-17,36-53 Signed-off-by:

This patch copies filter.h from include/linux/kernel.h to tools/include/linux/filter.h to enable other libraries to use macros in it, like libbpf which will be introduced by further patches. Currently, the filter.h copy only contains the useful macros needed by libbpf for not introducing too much dependence. tools/perf/MANIFEST is also updated for 'make perf-*-src-pkg'. One change: The 'imm' field of BPF_EMIT_CALL becomes ((FUNC) - BPF_FUNC_unspec) to suit user space code generator. Signed-off-by:

When profiling the kernel with the 'srcfile' sort key it's common to "get stuck" in include. For example a lot of code uses current or other inlines, so they get accounted to some random include file. This is not very useful as a high level categorization. For example just profiling the idle loop usually shows mostly inlines, so you never see the actual cpuidle file. This patch changes the 'srcfile' sort key to always unwind the inline stack using BFD/DWARF. So we always account to the base function that called the inline. In a few cases include is still shown (for example for MSR accesses), but that is because they get inlining expanded as part of assigning to a global function pointer. For the majority it works fine though. v2: Use simpler while loop. Add maximum iteration count. Signed-off-by:

This patch makes perf compile on non x86 platforms by defining a weak symbol for sample_reg_masks[] in util/perf_regs.c. The patch also moves the REG() and REG_END() macros into the util/per_regs.h header file. The macros are renamed to SMPL_REG/SMPL_REG_END to avoid clashes with other header files. Signed-off-by:

(Adrian Hunter) - Introduce support for probing at an absolute address, for user and kernel 'perf probe's, useful when one have the symbol maps on a developer machine but not on an embedded system. (Wang Nan) - Add Intel BTS support, with a call-graph script to show it and PT in use in a GUI using 'perf script' python scripting with postgresql and Qt. (Adrian Hunter) - Allow selecting the type of callchains per event, including disabling callchains in all but one entry in an event list, to save space, and also to ask for the callchains collected in one event to be used in other events. (Kan Liang) - Beautify more syscall arguments in 'perf trace': (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) * A bunch more translate file/pathnames from pointers to strings. * Convert numbers to strings for the 'keyctl' syscall 'option' arg. * Add missing 'clockid' entries. - Introduce 'srcfile' sort key: (Andi Kleen) # perf record -F 10000 usleep 1 # perf report --stdio --dsos '[kernel.vmlinux]' -s srcfile <SNIP> # Overhead Source File 26.49% copy_page_64.S 5.49% signal.c 0.51% msr.h # It can be combined with other fields, for instance, experiment with '-s srcfile,symbol'. There are some oddities in some distros and with some specific DSOs, being investigated, so your mileage may vary. - Support per-event 'freq' term: (Namhyung Kim) $ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,freq=1234/',cycles -c 1000 sleep 1 $ perf evlist -F cpu/instructions,freq=1234/: sample_freq=1234 cycles: sample_period=1000 $ - Deref sys_enter pointer args with contents from probe:vfs_getname, showing pathnames instead of pointers in many syscalls in 'perf trace'. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Stop collecting /proc/kallsyms in perf.data files, saving about 4.5MB on a typical x86-64 system, use the the symbol resolution routines used in all the other tools (report, top, etc) now that we can ask libtraceevent to use perf's symbol resolution code. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Allow filtering out of perf's PID via 'perf record --exclude-perf'. (Wang Nan) - 'perf trace' now supports syscall groups, like strace, i.e: $ trace -e file touch file Will expand 'file' into multiple, file related, syscalls. More work needed to add extra groups for other syscall groups, and also to complement what was added for the 'file' group, included as a proof of concept. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Add lock_pi stresser to 'perf bench futex', to test the kernel code related to FUTEX_(UN)LOCK_PI.
