* Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's patch-bomb)Linus Torvalds2012-05-317-1/+1369

Reluctantly. Most of it delayed a release. I'm still rather worried that we don't have a clear roadmap to completion for this work. * emailed from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>: (78 patches) kconfig: update compression algorithm info c/r: prctl: add ability to set new mm_struct::exe_file c/r: prctl: extend PR_SET_MM to set up more mm_struct entries c/r: procfs: add arg_start/end, env_start/end and exit_code members to /proc/$pid/stat syscalls, x86: add __NR_kcmp syscall fs, proc: introduce /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/children entry sysctl: make kernel.ns_last_pid control dependent on CHECKPOINT_RESTORE aio/vfs: cleanup of rw_copy_check_uvector() and compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() eventfd: change int to __u64 in eventfd_signal() fs/nls: add Apple NLS pidns: make killed children autoreap pidns: use task_active_pid_ns in do_notify_parent rapidio/tsi721: add DMA engine support rapidio: add DMA engine support for RIO data transfers ipc/mqueue: add rbtree node caching support tools/selftests: add mq_perf_tests ipc/mqueue: strengthen checks on mqueue creation ipc/mqueue: correct mq_attr_ok test ipc/mqueue: improve performance of send/recv selftests: add mq_open_tests ...
| * syscalls, x86: add __NR_kcmp syscallCyrill Gorcunov2012-05-313-1/+124
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While doing the checkpoint-restore in the user space one need to determine whether various kernel objects (like mm_struct-s of file_struct-s) are shared between tasks and restore this state. The 2nd step can be solved by using appropriate CLONE_ flags and the unshare syscall, while there's currently no ways for solving the 1st one. One of the ways for checking whether two tasks share e.g. mm_struct is to provide some mm_struct ID of a task to its proc file, but showing such info considered to be not that good for security reasons. Thus after some debates we end up in conclusion that using that named 'comparison' syscall might be the best candidate. So here is it -- __NR_kcmp. It takes up to 5 arguments - the pids of the two tasks (which characteristics should be compared), the comparison type and (in case of comparison of files) two file descriptors. Lookups for pids are done in the caller's PID namespace only. At moment only x86 is supported and tested.

| * perf tools: Reconstruct event with modifiers from perf_event_attrArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2012-05-253-16/+104

Fix it by following the defaults used for these modifiers in the current codebase, so: $ perf record -e instructions:u usleep 1 2> /dev/null $ perf evlist instructions:u $ perf record -e cycles:k usleep 1 2> /dev/null $ perf evlist cycles:k $ perf record -e cycles:kh usleep 1 2> /dev/null $ perf evlist cycles:kh $ perf record -e cache-misses:G usleep 1 2> /dev/null $ perf evlist cache-misses:G $ perf record -e cycles:ppk usleep 1 2> /dev/null $ perf evlist cycles:kpp $ Also works with 'top', 'report', etc. More work needed to cover tracepoints and software events while not dragging lots of baggage to the python binding, this is a minimal fix for v3.5.

| * perf top: Fix counter name fixup when fallbacking to cpu-clockArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2012-05-251-1/+1

Fix it by just freeing and setting counter->name to NULL, this way event_name() when called afterwards, will find the right counter name and cache it again. Found while trying 'cycles:pp' on a machine were :pp couldn't be honoured. Probably the best fallback here is to tell the user that that level of precision is not available on the PMU and then go removing 'p', levels of precision till we get to play 'cycles' and if even that fails, _then_ get to 'cpu-clock'. But that is the matter for another patch, this one just needs to fix the caching issue, which in the end will show 'cpu-clock' when tools ask for the event name being used, which clarifies things for the user, that will see that 'cycles:pp' or whatever not support event is not being used, some sort of fallback happened.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The __print_symbolic() function takes a sequence of key-value pairs for pretty-printing a constant. The new kvm:kvm_exit print fmt uses the expression: __print_symbolic(..., { 0x040 + 1, "DB excp" }, ...) Currently only atoms are supported and this print fmt fails to parse. This patch adds support for expressions instead of just atoms so that 0x040 + 1 is parsed successfully.

This version is much rewritten, reviews from PeterZ, Oleg and myself shaped the end result. This tree includes uprobes support in 'perf probe' - but SystemTap (and other tools) can take advantage of user probe points as well. Sample usage of uprobes via perf, for example to profile malloc() calls without modifying user-space binaries. First boot a new kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENT=y enabled. If you don't know which function you want to probe you can pick one from 'perf top' or can get a list all functions that can be probed within libc (binaries can be specified as well): $ perf probe -F -x /lib/libc.so.6 To probe libc's malloc(): $ perf probe -x /lib64/libc.so.6 malloc Added new event: probe_libc:malloc (on 0x7eac0) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1 Make use of it to create a call graph (as the flat profile is going to look very boring): $ perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -gR make [ perf record: Woken up 173 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 44.190 MB perf.data (~1930712 $ perf report | less 32.03% git libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc 29.49% cc1 libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc | |--0.95%-- 0x208eb1000000000 | |--0.63%-- htab_traverse_noresize 11.04% as libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc | 7.15% ld libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc | 5.07% sh libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc | 4.99% python-config libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc | 4.54% make libc-2.15.so [.] malloc | --- malloc | |--7.34%-- glob | | | |--93.18%-- 0x41588f | | | --6.82%-- glob | 0x41588f ...

The core uprobes design is fairly straightforward: uprobes probe points register themselves at (inode:offset) addresses of libraries/binaries, after which all existing (or new) vmas that map that address will have a software breakpoint injected at that address. vmas are COW-ed to preserve original content. The probe points are kept in an rbtree. If user-space executes the probed inode:offset instruction address then an event is generated which can be recovered from the regular perf event channels and mmap-ed ring-buffer. Multiple probes at the same address are supported, they create a dynamic callback list of event consumers. The basic model is further complicated by the XOL speedup: the original instruction that is probed is copied (in an architecture specific fashion) and executed out of line when the probe triggers. The XOL area is a single vma per process, with a fixed number of entries (which limits probe execution parallelism). The API: uprobes are installed/removed via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, the API is integrated to align with the kprobes interface as much as possible, but is separate to it. Injecting a probe point is privileged operation, which can be relaxed by setting perf_paranoid to -1. You can use multiple probes as well and mix them with kprobes and regular PMU events or tracepoints, when instrumenting a task."

The buildid for the kernel is provided by a BUILD_ID record. The [kernel.kallsyms] is provided by a MMAP record. There is no clean and obvious way to link the two, unfortunately. In regular mode, the kernel buildid is generated from reading the ELF image or kallsyms and perf knows to associate [kernel.kallsyms] to it. Later on, when perf processes the [kernel.kallsyms] MMAP record, it will already have a dso for it. So for now, make sure perf buildid-list shows the buildids for everything but the kernel image.

In general, perf is supposed to skip records it does not understand, but in pipe mode, those have to be read and ignored. The fixed size header contains the size of the record, but that size may be larger than union perf_event, yet it was used as the backing to the read in: union perf_event event; void *p; size = event->header.size; p = &event; p += sizeof(struct perf_event_header); if (size - sizeof(struct perf_event_header)) { err = readn(self->fd, p, size - sizeof(struct perf_event_header)); We fix this by allocating a buffer based on the size reported in the header. We reuse the buffer as much as we can. We realloc in case it becomes too small. In the common case, the performance impact is negligible.

It would not inject any build_id into the stream. Furthermore, it would strip samples from the stream. The reason was a missing initialization of the event attribute structure. The perf_tool.tool.attr() callback was pointing to a simple repipe. But there was no initialization of the internal data structures to keep track of events and event ids. That later caused event id lookups to fail, and sample would get removed. The patch simply adds back the call to perf_event__process_attr() to initialize the evlist structure and now build_ids are again injected.

The bitfield flags need to be transformed as well, since the bitfield binary storage differs for both endians. ABI says: Bit-fields are allocated from right to left (least to most significant) on little-endian implementations and from left to right (most to least significant) on big-endian implementations. The above seems to be byte specific, so we need to reverse each byte of the bitfield. 'Internet' also says this might be implementation specific and we probably need proper fix and carry perf_event_attr bitfield flags in separate data file FEAT_ section. Thought this seems to work for now. Note, running following to test perf endianity handling: test 1) - origin system: # perf record -a -- sleep 10 (any perf record will do) # perf report > report.origin # perf archive perf.data - copy the perf.data, report.origin and perf.data.tar.bz2 to a target system and run: # tar xjvf perf.data.tar.bz2 -C ~/.debug # perf report > report.target # diff -u report.origin report.target - the diff should produce no output (besides some white space stuff and possibly different date/TZ output) test 2) - origin system: # perf record -ag -fo /tmp/perf.data -- sleep 1 - mount origin system root to the target system on /mnt/origin - target system: # perf script --symfs /mnt/origin -I -i /mnt/origin/tmp/perf.data \ --kallsyms /mnt/origin/proc/kallsyms - complete perf.data header is displayed Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Tested-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Corey Ashford <cjashfor@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1337151548-2396-3-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
