* radix-tree tests: add iteration testRoss Zwisler2016-10-114-1/+184
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are four cases I can see where we could end up with a NULL 'slot' in radix_tree_next_slot(). This unit test exercises all four of them, making sure that if in the future we have an unsafe path through radix_tree_next_slot(), we'll catch it. Here are details on the four cases: 1) radix_tree_iter_retry() via a non-tagged iteration like radix_tree_for_each_slot(). In this case we currently aren't seeing a bug because radix_tree_iter_retry() sets iter->next_index = iter->index; which means that in in the else case in radix_tree_next_slot(), 'count' is zero, so we skip over the while() loop and effectively just return NULL without ever dereferencing 'slot'. 2) radix_tree_iter_retry() via tagged iteration like radix_tree_for_each_tagged(). This case was giving us NULL pointer dereferences in testing, and was fixed with this commit: commit 3cb9185c6730 ("radix-tree: fix radix_tree_iter_retry() for tagged iterators.") This fix doesn't explicitly check for 'slot' being NULL, though, it works around the NULL pointer dereference by instead zeroing iter->tags in radix_tree_iter_retry(), which makes us bail out of the if() case in radix_tree_next_slot() before we dereference 'slot'. 3) radix_tree_iter_next() via via a non-tagged iteration like radix_tree_for_each_slot(). This currently happens in shmem_tag_pins() and shmem_partial_swap_usage(). As with non-tagged iteration, 'count' in the else case of radix_tree_next_slot() is zero, so we skip over the while() loop and effectively just return NULL without ever dereferencing 'slot'. 4) radix_tree_iter_next() via tagged iteration like radix_tree_for_each_tagged(). This happens in shmem_wait_for_pins(). radix_tree_iter_next() zeros out iter->tags, so we end up exiting radix_tree_next_slot() here: if (flags & RADIX_TREE_ITER_TAGGED) { void *canon = slot; iter->tags >>= 1; if (unlikely(!iter->tags)) return NULL; Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160815194237.25967-3-ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Ross Zwisler <ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com> Cc: Konstantin Khlebnikov <koct9i@gmail.com> Cc: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Cc: Shuah Khan <shuahkh@osg.samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This is useful with the JSON events. perf uses lower case events, but the CPU manuals generally use upper case event names. The JSON files use lower case by default too. But if we search case insensitively then users can cut-n-paste the upper case event names. So the following works: % perf stat -e BR_INST_EXEC.TAKEN_INDIRECT_NEAR_CALL true Performance counter stats for 'true': 305 BR_INST_EXEC.TAKEN_INDIRECT_NEAR_CALL 0.000492799 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Madhavan Srinivasan <maddy@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1473978296-20712-17-git-send-email-sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

We expect architectures to create JSON files describing the performance monitoring (PMU) events that each CPU model/family of the architecture supports. Following is an example of the JSON file entry for an x86 event: [ ... { "EventCode": "0x00", "UMask": "0x01", "EventName": "INST_RETIRED.ANY", "BriefDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.", "PublicDescription": "Instructions retired from execution.", "Counter": "Fixed counter 1", "CounterHTOff": "Fixed counter 1", "SampleAfterValue": "2000003", "SampleAfterValue": "2000003", "MSRIndex": "0", "MSRValue": "0", "TakenAlone": "0", "CounterMask": "0", "Invert": "0", "AnyThread": "0", "EdgeDetect": "0", "PEBS": "0", "PRECISE_STORE": "0", "Errata": "null", "Offcore": "0" }, ... ] All the PMU events supported by a CPU model/family must be grouped into "topics" such as "Pipelining", "Floating-point", "Virtual-memory" etc. All events belonging to a topic must be placed in a separate JSON file (eg: "Pipelining.json") and all the topic JSON files for a CPU model must be in a separate directory. Eg: for the CPU model "Silvermont_core": $ ls tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core Floating-point.json Memory.json Other.json Pipelining.json Virtualmemory.json Finally, to allow multiple CPU models to share a single set of JSON files, architectures must provide a mapping between a model and its set of events: $ grep Silvermont tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/mapfile.csv GenuineIntel-6-4D,V13,Silvermont_core,core GenuineIntel-6-4C,V13,Silvermont_core,core which maps each CPU, identified by [vendor, family, model, version, type] to a directory of JSON files. Thus two (or more) CPU models support the set of PMU events listed in the directory. tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/Silvermont_core/ Given this organization of files, the program, jevents: - locates all JSON files for each CPU-model of the architecture, - parses all JSON files for the CPU-model and generates a C-style "PMU-events table" (pmu-events.c) for the model - locates a mapfile for the architecture - builds a global table, mapping each model of CPU to the corresponding PMU-events table. The 'pmu-events.c' is generated when building perf and added to libperf.a. The global table pmu_events_map[] table in this pmu-events.c will be used in perf in a follow-on patch. If the architecture does not have any JSON files or there is an error in processing them, an empty mapping file is created. This would allow the build of perf to proceed even if we are not able to provide aliases for events. The parser for JSON files allows parsing Intel style JSON event files. This allows to use an Intel event list directly with perf. The Intel event lists can be quite large and are too big to store in unswappable kernel memory. The conversion from JSON to C-style is straight forward. The parser knows (very little) Intel specific information, and can be easily extended to handle fields for other CPUs. The parser code is partially shared with an independent parsing library, which is 2-clause BSD licensed. To avoid any conflicts I marked those files as BSD licensed too. As part of perf they become GPLv2. Committer notes: Fixes: 1) Limit maxfds to 512 to avoid nftd() segfaulting on alloca() with a big rlim_max, as in docker containers - acme 2) Make jevents a hostprog, supporting cross compilation - jolsa 3) Use HOSTCC for jevents final step - acme 4) Define _GNU_SOURCE for asprintf, as we can't use CC's EXTRA_CFLAGS, that has to have --sysroot on the Android NDK 24 - acme 5) Removed $(srctree)/tools/perf/pmu-events/pmu-events.c from the 'clean' target, it is generated on $(OUTPUT)pmu-events/pmu-events.c, which is already taken care of in the original patch - acme Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Madhavan Srinivasan <maddy@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1473978296-20712-3-git-send-email-sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160927141846.GA6589@krava Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
| | * | perf tools: Add jsmn `jasmine' JSON parserAndi Kleen2016-10-034-0/+574

This adds the simplest JSON parser I could find -- Serge Zaitsev's jsmn `jasmine' -- to the perf library. I merely converted it to (mostly) Linux style and added support for non 0 terminated input. The parser is quite straight forward and does not copy any data, just returns tokens with offsets into the input buffer. So it's relatively efficient and simple to use. The code is not fully checkpatch clean, but I didn't want to completely fork the upstream code. Original source: http://zserge.bitbucket.org/jsmn.html In addition I added a simple wrapper that mmaps a json file and provides some straight forward access functions. Used in follow-on patches to parse event files.
