* perf probe: Use right type to access array elementsMasami Hiramatsu2018-03-191-8/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current 'perf probe' converts the type of array-elements incorrectly. It always converts the types as a pointer of array. This passes the "array" type DIE to the type converter so that it can get correct "element of array" type DIE from it. E.g. ==== $ cat hello.c #include <stdio.h> void foo(int a[]) { printf("%d\n", a[1]); } void main() { int a[3] = {4, 5, 6}; printf("%d\n", a[0]); foo(a); } $ gcc -g hello.c -o hello $ perf probe -x ./hello -D "foo a[1]" ==== Without this fix, above outputs ==== p:probe_hello/foo /tmp/hello:0x4d3 a=+4(-8(%bp)):u64 ==== The "u64" means "int *", but a[1] is "int". With this, ==== p:probe_hello/foo /tmp/hello:0x4d3 a=+4(-8(%bp)):s32 ==== So, "int" correctly converted to "s32" Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Ravi Bangoria <ravi.bangoria@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Shuah Khan <shuah@kernel.org> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com> Cc: linux-kselftest@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-trace-users@vger.kernel.org Fixes: b2a3c12b7442 ("perf probe: Support tracing an entry of array") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/152129114502.31874.2474068470011496356.stgit@devbox Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

* perf probe: Fix to probe on gcc generated functions in modulesMasami Hiramatsu2017-01-161-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix to probe on gcc generated functions on modules. Since probing on a module is based on its symbol name, it should be adjusted on actual symbols. E.g. without this fix, perf probe shows probe definition on non-exist symbol as below. $ perf probe -m build-x86_64/net/netfilter/nf_nat.ko -F in_range* in_range.isra.12 $ perf probe -m build-x86_64/net/netfilter/nf_nat.ko -D in_range p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range+0 With this fix, perf probe correctly shows a probe on gcc-generated symbol. $ perf probe -m build-x86_64/net/netfilter/nf_nat.ko -D in_range p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range.isra.12+0 This also fixes same problem on online module as below. $ perf probe -m i915 -D assert_plane p:probe/assert_plane i915:assert_plane.constprop.134+0 Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/148411450673.9978.14905987549651656075.stgit@devbox Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
* perf probe: Fix to show correct locations for events on modulesMasami Hiramatsu2017-01-161-7/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix to show correct locations for events on modules by relocating given address instead of retrying after failure. This happens when the module text size is big enough, bigger than sh_addr, because the original code retries with given address + sh_addr if it failed to find CU DIE at the given address. Any address smaller than sh_addr always fails and it retries with the correct address, but addresses bigger than sh_addr will get a CU DIE which is on the given address (not adjusted by sh_addr). In my environment(x86-64), the sh_addr of ".text" section is 0x10030. Since i915 is a huge kernel module, we can see this issue as below. $ grep "[Tt] .*\[i915\]" /proc/kallsyms | sort | head -n1 ffffffffc0270000 t i915_switcheroo_can_switch [i915] ffffffffc0270000 + 0x10030 = ffffffffc0280030, so we'll check symbols cross this boundary. $ grep "[Tt] .*\[i915\]" /proc/kallsyms | grep -B1 ^ffffffffc028\ | head -n 2 ffffffffc027ff80 t haswell_init_clock_gating [i915] ffffffffc0280110 t valleyview_init_clock_gating [i915] So setup probes on both function and see what happen. $ sudo ./perf probe -m i915 -a haswell_init_clock_gating \ -a valleyview_init_clock_gating Added new events: probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating in i915) probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating in i915) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating -aR sleep 1 $ sudo ./perf probe -l probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915) probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on i915_vga_set_decode:4@gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.c in i915) As you can see, haswell_init_clock_gating is correctly shown, but valleyview_init_clock_gating is not. With this patch, both events are shown correctly. $ sudo ./perf probe -l probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915) probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915) Committer notes: In my case: # perf probe -m i915 -a haswell_init_clock_gating -a valleyview_init_clock_gating Added new events: probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating in i915) probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating in i915) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating -aR sleep 1 # perf probe -l probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on i915_getparam+432@gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.c in i915) probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on __i915_printk+240@gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.c in i915) # # readelf -SW /lib/modules/4.9.0+/build/vmlinux | egrep -w '.text|Name' [Nr] Name Type Address Off Size ES Flg Lk Inf Al [ 1] .text PROGBITS ffffffff81000000 200000 822fd3 00 AX 0 0 4096 # So both are b0rked, now with the fix: # perf probe -m i915 -a haswell_init_clock_gating -a valleyview_init_clock_gating Added new events: probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating in i915) probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating in i915) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating -aR sleep 1 # perf probe -l probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915) probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915) # Both looks correct.

* perf uprobe: Skip prologue if program compiled without optimizationRavi Bangoria2016-09-011-0/+165
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function prologue prepares stack and registers before executing function logic. When target program is compiled without optimization, function parameter information is only valid after the prologue. When we probe entrypc of the function, and try to record a function parameter, it contains a garbage value. For example: $ vim test.c #include <stdio.h> void foo(int i) { printf("i: %d\n", i); } int main() { foo(42); return 0; } $ gcc -g test.c -o test $ objdump -dl test | less foo(): /home/ravi/test.c:4 400536: 55 push %rbp 400537: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp 40053a: 48 83 ec 10 sub -bashx10,%rsp 40053e: 89 7d fc mov %edi,-0x4(%rbp) /home/ravi/test.c:5 400541: 8b 45 fc mov -0x4(%rbp),%eax ... ... main(): /home/ravi/test.c:9 400558: 55 push %rbp 400559: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp /home/ravi/test.c:10 40055c: bf 2a 00 00 00 mov -bashx2a,%edi 400561: e8 d0 ff ff ff callq 400536 <foo> $ perf probe -x ./test 'foo i' $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events p:probe_test/foo /home/ravi/test:0x0000000000000536 i=-12(%sp):s32 $ perf record -e probe_test:foo ./test $ perf script test 5778 [001] 4918.562027: probe_test:foo: (400536) i=0 Here variable 'i' is passed via stack which is pushed on stack at 0x40053e. But we are probing at 0x400536. To resolve this issues, we need to probe on next instruction after prologue. gdb and systemtap also does same thing. I've implemented this patch based on approach systemtap has used. After applying patch: $ perf probe -x ./test 'foo i' $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events p:probe_test/foo /home/ravi/test:0x0000000000000541 i=-4(%bp):s32 $ perf record -e probe_test:foo ./test $ perf script test 6300 [001] 5877.879327: probe_test:foo: (400541) i=42 No need to skip prologue for optimized case since debug info is correct for each instructions for -O2 -g. For more details please visit: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=612253#c6 Changes in v2: - Skipping prologue only when any ARG is either C variable, $params or $vars. - Probe on line(:1) may not be always possible.

* perf probe: Support signedness castingNaohiro Aota2016-08-091-3/+12

Then, kprobes prints its variable in hexadecimal format if the variable is unsigned and prints in decimal if it is signed. We sometimes want to see unsigned variable in decimal format (i.e. sector_t or size_t). In that case, we need to investigate the variable's size manually to specify just signedness. This patch add signedness casting support. By specifying "s" or "u" as a type, perf-probe will investigate variable size as usual and use the specified signedness. E.g. without this: $ perf probe -a 'submit_bio bio->bi_iter.bi_sector' Added new event: probe:submit_bio (on submit_bio with bi_sector=bio->bi_iter.bi_sector) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:submit_bio -aR sleep 1 $ cat trace_pipe|head dbench-9692 [003] d..1 971.096633: submit_bio: (submit_bio+0x0/0x140) bi_sector=0x3a3d00 dbench-9692 [003] d..1 971.096685: submit_bio: (submit_bio+0x0/0x140) bi_sector=0x1a3d80 dbench-9692 [003] d..1 971.096687: submit_bio: (submit_bio+0x0/0x140) bi_sector=0x3a3d80 ... // need to investigate the variable size $ perf probe -a 'submit_bio bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s64' Added new event: probe:submit_bio (on submit_bio with bi_sector=bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s64) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:submit_bio -aR sleep 1 With this: // just use "s" to cast its signedness $ perf probe -v -a 'submit_bio bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s' Added new event: probe:submit_bio (on submit_bio with bi_sector=bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:submit_bio -aR sleep 1 $ cat trace_pipe|head dbench-9689 [001] d..1 1212.391237: submit_bio: (submit_bio+0x0/0x140) bi_sector=128 dbench-9689 [001] d..1 1212.391252: submit_bio: (submit_bio+0x0/0x140) bi_sector=131072 dbench-9697 [006] d..1 1212.398611: submit_bio: (submit_bio+0x0/0x140) bi_sector=30208 This commit also update perf-probe.txt to describe "types".

* tools: Introduce str_error_r()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2016-07-121-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else. But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine Linux, where musl libc is used. So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is returned.

* perf probe: Search both .eh_frame and .debug_frame sections for probe locationHemant Kumar2016-02-021-25/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'perf probe' through debuginfo__find_probes() in util/probe-finder.c checks for the functions' frame descriptions in either .eh_frame section of an ELF or the .debug_frame. The check is based on whether either one of these sections is present. Depending on distro, toolchain defaults, architetcutre, build flags, etc., CFI might be found in either .eh_frame and/or .debug_frame. Sometimes, it may happen that, .eh_frame, even if present, may not be complete and may miss some descriptions. Therefore, to be sure, to find the CFI covering an address we will always have to investigate both if available. For e.g., in powerpc, this may happen: $ gcc -g bin.c -o bin $ objdump --dwarf ./bin <1><145>: Abbrev Number: 7 (DW_TAG_subprogram) <146> DW_AT_external : 1 <146> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x9e): main <14a> DW_AT_decl_file : 1 <14b> DW_AT_decl_line : 39 <14c> DW_AT_prototyped : 1 <14c> DW_AT_type : <0x57> <150> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x100007b8 If the .eh_frame and .debug_frame are checked for the same binary, we will find that, .eh_frame (although present) doesn't contain a description for "main" function. But, .debug_frame has a description: 000000d8 00000024 00000000 FDE cie=00000000 pc=100007b8..10000838 DW_CFA_advance_loc: 16 to 100007c8 DW_CFA_def_cfa_offset: 144 DW_CFA_offset_extended_sf: r65 at cfa+16 ... Due to this (since, perf checks whether .eh_frame is present and goes on searching for that address inside that frame), perf is unable to process the probes: # perf probe -x ./bin main Failed to get call frame on 0x100007b8 Error: Failed to add events. To avoid this issue, we need to check both the sections (.eh_frame and .debug_frame), which is done in this patch. Note that, we can always force everything into both .eh_frame and .debug_frame by: $ gcc bin.c -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -fno-dwarf2-cfi-asm -g -o bin Signed-off-by: Hemant Kumar <hemant@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org Cc: Mark Wielaard <mjw@redhat.com> Cc: Naveen N.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The commit 05c8d802fa52 ("perf probe: Fix to free temporal Dwarf_Frame") tried to fix the memory leak of Dwarf_Frame, but it released the frame at wrong point. Since the dwarf_frame_cfa(frame, &pf->fb_ops, &nops) can return an address inside the frame data structure to pf->fb_ops, we can not release the frame before using pf->fb_ops. This reverts the commit and releases the frame afterwards (right before returning from call_probe_finder) correctly.

* perf probe: Support probing at absolute addressWang Nan2015-08-261-18/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It should be useful to allow 'perf probe' probe at absolute offset of a target. For example, when (u)probing at a instruction of a shared object in a embedded system where debuginfo is not avaliable but we know the offset of that instruction by manually digging. This patch enables following perf probe command syntax: # perf probe 0xffffffff811e6615 And # perf probe /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so 0xeb860 In the above example, we don't need a anchor symbol, so it is possible to compute absolute addresses using other methods and then use 'perf probe' to create the probing points. v1 -> v2: Drop the leading '+' in cmdline; Allow uprobing at offset 0x0; Improve 'perf probe -l' result when uprobe at area without debuginfo. v2 -> v3: Split bugfix to a separated patch. Test result: # perf probe 0xffffffff8119d175 %ax # perf probe sys_write %ax # perf probe /lib64/libc-2.18.so 0x0 %ax # perf probe /lib64/libc-2.18.so 0x5 %ax # perf probe /lib64/libc-2.18.so 0xd8e40 %ax # perf probe /lib64/libc-2.18.so __write %ax # perf probe /lib64/libc-2.18.so 0xd8e49 %ax # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events p:probe_libc/abs_0 /lib64/libc-2.18.so:0x (null) arg1=%ax p:probe_libc/abs_5 /lib64/libc-2.18.so:0x0000000000000005 arg1=%ax p:probe_libc/abs_d8e40 /lib64/libc-2.18.so:0x00000000000d8e40 arg1=%ax p:probe_libc/__write /lib64/libc-2.18.so:0x00000000000d8e40 arg1=%ax p:probe_libc/abs_d8e49 /lib64/libc-2.18.so:0x00000000000d8e49 arg1=%ax # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events p:probe/abs_ffffffff8119d175 0xffffffff8119d175 arg1=%ax p:probe/sys_write _text+1692016 arg1=%ax # perf probe -l Failed to find debug information for address 5 probe:abs_ffffffff8119d175 (on sys_write+5 with arg1) probe:sys_write (on sys_write with arg1) probe_libc:__write (on @unix/syscall-template.S:81 in /lib64/libc-2.18.so with arg1) probe_libc:abs_0 (on 0x0 in /lib64/libc-2.18.so with arg1) probe_libc:abs_5 (on 0x5 in /lib64/libc-2.18.so with arg1) probe_libc:abs_d8e40 (on @unix/syscall-template.S:81 in /lib64/libc-2.18.so with arg1) probe_libc:abs_d8e49 (on __GI___libc_write+9 in /lib64/libc-2.18.so with arg1) Signed-off-by: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Zefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: pi3orama@163.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1440586666-235233-7-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

* perf tools: Reference count struct dsoArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2015-06-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This has a different model than the 'thread' and 'map' struct lifetimes: there is not a definitive "don't use this DSO anymore" event, i.e. we may get many 'struct map' holding references to the '/usr/lib64/libc-2.20.so' DSO but then at some point some DSO may have no references but we still don't want to straight away release its resources, because "soon" we may get a new 'struct map' that needs it and we want to reuse its symtab or other resources. So we need some way to garbage collect it when crossing some memory usage threshold, which is left for anoter patch, for now it is sufficient to release it when calling dsos__exit(), i.e. when deleting the whole list as part of deleting the 'struct machine' containing it, which will leave only referenced objects being used.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is not easy for users to get the accurate byte offset or the line number where a local variable can be probed. With '--range' option, local variables in the scope of the probe point are showed with a byte offset range, and can be added according to this range information. For example, there are some variables in the function generic_perform_write(): <generic_perform_write@mm/filemap.c:0> 0 ssize_t generic_perform_write(struct file *file, 1 struct iov_iter *i, loff_t pos) 2 { 3 struct address_space *mapping = file->f_mapping; 4 const struct address_space_operations *a_ops = mapping->a_ops; ... 42 status = a_ops->write_begin(file, mapping, pos, bytes, flags, &page, &fsdata); 44 if (unlikely(status < 0)) But we fail when we try to probe the variable 'a_ops' at line 42 or 44. $ perf probe --add 'generic_perform_write:42 a_ops' Failed to find the location of a_ops at this address. Perhaps, it has been optimized out. This is because the source code do not match the assembly, so a variable may not be available in the source code line where it appears. After this patch, we can lookup the accurate byte offset range of a variable, 'INV' indicates that this variable is not valid at the given point, but available in the scope: $ perf probe --vars 'generic_perform_write:42' --range Available variables at generic_perform_write:42 @<generic_perform_write+141> [INV] ssize_t written @<generic_perform_write+[324-331]> [INV] struct address_space_operations* a_ops @<generic_perform_write+[55-61,170-176,223-246]> [VAL] (unknown_type) fsdata @<generic_perform_write+[70-307,346-411]> [VAL] loff_t pos @<generic_perform_write+[0-286,286-336,346-411]> [VAL] long int status @<generic_perform_write+[83-342,346-411]> [VAL] long unsigned int bytes @<generic_perform_write+[122-311,320-338,346-403,403-411]> [VAL] struct address_space* mapping @<generic_perform_write+[35-344,346-411]> [VAL] struct iov_iter* i @<generic_perform_write+[0-340,346-411]> [VAL] struct page* page @<generic_perform_write+[70-307,346-411]> Then it is more clear for us to add a probe with this variable: $ perf probe --add 'generic_perform_write+170 a_ops' Added new event: probe:generic_perform_write (on generic_perform_write+170 with a_ops) Signed-off-by: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1431336304-16863-2-git-send-email-hekuang@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively. (Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might allow unprivileged use as well.) (Alexei Starovoitov) - Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock sources for event timestamps traced via perf. This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated events with external events that were measured with different clocks: - cluster wide profiling - for system wide tracing with user-space events, - JIT profiling events etc. Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al. (Peter Zijlstra) Hardware enablement kernel changes: - x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs. The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous. This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result. A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU. More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well - will probably be ready by 4.2. (Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra) - x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads. These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events. (The partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged as a cgroup extension.) (Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P Waskiewicz Jr) - x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus tooling support. To activate this feature you have to enable it via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option: perf record --call-graph lbr perf report or: perf top --call-graph lbr This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf based unwinding, but has some limitations: - It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record can not be enabled at the same time. - It is only available for user-space callchains. (Yan, Zheng) - x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and event table fixes for earlier models. (Andi Kleen) - x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds. This is a complex CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter value corruption. The mitigation code is automatically enabled and is transparent. (Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian) The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to the tooling changes outlined above: User visible changes affecting all tools: - Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa) - Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song) - Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa) - Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership. (Yunlong Song) - Show the first event with an invalid filter (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) User visible changes in individual tools: 'perf data': New tool for converting perf.data to other formats, initially for the CTF (Common Trace Format) from LTTng (Jiri Olsa, Sebastian Siewior) 'perf diff': Add --kallsyms option (David Ahern) 'perf list': Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix (Yunlong Song) Sort the output of the command (Yunlong Song) 'perf kmem': Respect -i option (Jiri Olsa) Print big numbers using thousands' group (Namhyung Kim) Allow -v option (Namhyung Kim) Fix alignment of slab result table (Namhyung Kim) 'perf probe': Support multiple probes on different binaries on the same command line (Masami Hiramatsu) Support unnamed union/structure members data collection. (Masami Hiramatsu) Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events. (Masami Hiramatsu) 'perf record': Teach 'perf record' about perf_event_attr.clockid (Peter Zijlstra) Support recording running/enabled time (Andi Kleen) 'perf sched': Improve the performance of 'perf sched replay' on high CPU core count machines (Yunlong Song) 'perf report' and 'perf top': Allow annotating entries in callchains in the hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Indicate which callchain entries are annotated in the TUI hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Add pid/tid filtering to 'report' and 'script' commands (David Ahern) Consider PERF_RECORD_ events with cpumode == 0 in 'perf top', removing one cause of long term memory usage buildup, i.e. not processing PERF_RECORD_EXIT events (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) 'perf stat': Report unsupported events properly (Suzuki K. Poulose) Output running time and run/enabled ratio in CSV mode (Andi Kleen) 'perf trace': Handle legacy syscalls tracepoints (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Only insert blank duration bracket when tracing syscalls (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Filter out the trace pid when no threads are specified (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Dump stack on segfaults (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) There's also been a ton of infrastructure work done, such as the split-out of perf's build system into tools/build/ and other changes - see the shortlog and changelog for details" * 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (358 commits) perf/x86/intel/pt: Clean up the control flow in pt_pmu_hw_init() perf evlist: Fix type for references to data_head/tail perf probe: Check the orphaned -x option perf probe: Support multiple probes on different binaries perf buildid-list: Fix segfault when show DSOs with hits perf tools: Fix cross-endian analysis perf tools: Fix error path to do closedir() when synthesizing threads perf tools: Fix synthesizing fork_event.ppid for non-main thread perf tools: Add 'I' event modifier for exclude_idle bit perf report: Don't call map__kmap if map is NULL. perf tests: Fix attr tests perf probe: Fix ARM 32 building error perf tools: Merge all perf_event_attr print functions perf record: Add clockid parameter perf sched replay: Use replay_repeat to calculate the runavg of cpu usage instead of the default value 10 perf sched replay: Support using -f to override perf.data file ownership perf sched replay: Fix the EMFILE error caused by the limitation of the maximum open files perf sched replay: Handle the dead halt of sem_wait when create_tasks() fails for any task perf sched replay: Fix the segmentation fault problem caused by pr_err in threads perf sched replay: Realloc the memory of pid_to_task stepwise to adapt to the different pid_max configurations ...
