2018-05-30tools/libbpf: handle issues with bpf ELF objects containing .eh_framesJesper Dangaard Brouer
[ Upstream commit e3d91b0ca523d53158f435a3e13df7f0cb360ea2 ] V3: More generic skipping of relo-section (suggested by Daniel) If clang >= 4.0.1 is missing the option '-target bpf', it will cause llc/llvm to create two ELF sections for "Exception Frames", with section names '.eh_frame' and '.rel.eh_frame'. The BPF ELF loader library libbpf fails when loading files with these sections. The other in-kernel BPF ELF loader in samples/bpf/bpf_load.c, handle this gracefully. And iproute2 loader also seems to work with these "eh" sections. The issue in libbpf is caused by bpf_object__elf_collect() skipping some sections, and later when performing relocation it will be pointing to a skipped section, as these sections cannot be found by bpf_object__find_prog_by_idx() in bpf_object__collect_reloc(). This is a general issue that also occurs for other sections, like debug sections which are also skipped and can have relo section. As suggested by Daniel. To avoid keeping state about all skipped sections, instead perform a direct qlookup in the ELF object. Lookup the section that the relo-section points to and check if it contains executable machine instructions (denoted by the sh_flags SHF_EXECINSTR). Use this check to also skip irrelevant relo-sections. Note, for samples/bpf/ the '-target bpf' parameter to clang cannot be used due to incompatibility with asm embedded headers, that some of the samples include. This is explained in more details by Yonghong Song in bpf_devel_QA.

2018-05-30tools lib traceevent: Fix get_field_str() for dynamic stringsSteven Rostedt (VMware)
[ Upstream commit d777f8de99b05d399c0e4e51cdce016f26bd971b ] If a field is a dynamic string, get_field_str() returned just the offset/size value and not the string. Have it parse the offset/size correctly to return the actual string. Otherwise filtering fails when trying to filter fields that are dynamic strings.

2018-05-30tools lib traceevent: Simplify pointer print logic and fix %pFSteven Rostedt (VMware)
[ Upstream commit 38d70b7ca1769f26c0b79f3c08ff2cc949712b59 ] When processing %pX in pretty_print(), simplify the logic slightly by incrementing the ptr to the format string if isalnum(ptr[1]) is true. This follows the logic a bit more closely to what is in the kernel. Also, this fixes a small bug where %pF was not giving the offset of the function.

2017-08-06tools lib traceevent: Fix prev/next_prio for deadline tasksDaniel Bristot de Oliveira
[ Upstream commit 074859184d770824f4437dca716bdeb625ae8b1c ] Currently, the sched:sched_switch tracepoint reports deadline tasks with priority -1. But when reading the trace via perf script I've got the following output: # ./d & # (d is a deadline task, see [1]) # perf record -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 1 # perf script ... swapper 0 [000] 2146.962441: sched:sched_switch: swapper/0:0 [120] R ==> d:2593 [4294967295] d 2593 [000] 2146.972472: sched:sched_switch: d:2593 [4294967295] R ==> g:2590 [4294967295] The task d reports the wrong priority [4294967295]. This happens because the "int prio" is stored in an unsigned long long val. Although it is set as a %lld, as int is shorter than unsigned long long, trace_seq_printf prints it as a positive number. The fix is just to cast the val as an int, and print it as a %d, as in the sched:sched_switch tracepoint's "format". The output with the fix is: # ./d & # perf record -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 1 # perf script ... swapper 0 [000] 4306.374037: sched:sched_switch: swapper/0:0 [120] R ==> d:10941 [-1] d 10941 [000] 4306.383823: sched:sched_switch: d:10941 [-1] R ==> swapper/0:0 [120] [1] d.c --- #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <linux/types.h> #include <linux/sched.h> struct sched_attr { __u32 size, sched_policy; __u64 sched_flags; __s32 sched_nice; __u32 sched_priority; __u64 sched_runtime, sched_deadline, sched_period; }; int sched_setattr(pid_t pid, const struct sched_attr *attr, unsigned int flags) { return syscall(__NR_sched_setattr, pid, attr, flags); } int main(void) { struct sched_attr attr = { .size = sizeof(attr), .sched_policy = SCHED_DEADLINE, /* This creates a 10ms/30ms reservation */ .sched_runtime = 10 * 1000 * 1000, .sched_period = attr.sched_deadline = 30 * 1000 * 1000, }; if (sched_setattr(0, &attr, 0) < 0) { perror("sched_setattr"); return -1; } for(;;); } --- Committer notes: Got the program from the provided URL, http://bristot.me/lkml/d.c, trimmed it and included in the cset log above, so that we have everything needed to test it in one place.

2017-07-21tools/lib/lockdep: Reduce MAX_LOCK_DEPTH to avoid overflowing lock_chain/: DepthBen Hutchings
commit 98dcea0cfd04e083ac74137ceb9a632604740e2d upstream. liblockdep has been broken since commit 75dd602a5198 ("lockdep: Fix lock_chain::base size"), as that adds a check that MAX_LOCK_DEPTH is within the range of lock_chain::depth and in liblockdep it is much too large. That should have resulted in a compiler error, but didn't because: - the check uses ARRAY_SIZE(), which isn't yet defined in liblockdep so is assumed to be an (undeclared) function - putting a function call inside a BUILD_BUG_ON() expression quietly turns it into some nonsense involving a variable-length array It did produce a compiler warning, but I didn't notice because liblockdep already produces too many warnings if -Wall is enabled (which I'll fix shortly). Even before that commit, which reduced lock_chain::depth from 8 bits to 6, MAX_LOCK_DEPTH was too large.

2016-05-18tools lib traceevent: Do not reassign parg after collapse_tree()Steven Rostedt
commit 106b816cb46ebd87408b4ed99a2e16203114daa6 upstream. At the end of process_filter(), collapse_tree() was changed to update the parg parameter, but the reassignment after the call wasn't removed. What happens is that the "current_op" gets modified and freed and parg is assigned to the new allocated argument. But after the call to collapse_tree(), parg is assigned again to the just freed "current_op", and this causes the tool to crash. The current_op variable must also be assigned to NULL in case of error, otherwise it will cause it to be free()ed twice.

When a long value is read on 32 bit machines for 64 bit output, the parsing needs to change "%lu" into "%llu", as the value is read natively.

2015-11-06bpf tools: Improve libbpf error reportingWang Nan
In this patch, a series of libbpf specific error numbers and libbpf_strerror() are introduced to help reporting errors. Functions are updated to pass correct the error number through the CHECK_ERR() macro. All users of bpf_object__open{_buffer}() and bpf_program__title() in perf are modified accordingly. In addition, due to the error codes changing, bpf__strerror_load() is also modified to use them. bpf__strerror_head() is also changed accordingly so it can parse libbpf errors. bpf_loader_strerror() is introduced for that purpose, and will be improved by the following patch. load_program() is improved not to dump log buffer if it is empty. log buffer is also used to deduce whether the error was caused by an invalid program or other problem. v1 -> v2: - Using macro for error code. - Fetch error message based on array index, eliminate for-loop. - Use log buffer to detect the reason of failure. 3 new error code are introduced to replace LIBBPF_ERRNO__LOAD. In v1: # perf record -e ./test_ill_program.o ls event syntax error: './test_ill_program.o' \___ Failed to load program: Validate your program and check 'license'/'version' sections in your object SKIP # perf record -e ./test_kversion_nomatch_program.o ls event syntax error: './test_kversion_nomatch_program.o' \___ Failed to load program: Validate your program and check 'license'/'version' sections in your object SKIP # perf record -e ./test_big_program.o ls event syntax error: './test_big_program.o' \___ Failed to load program: Validate your program and check 'license'/'version' sections in your object SKIP In v2: # perf record -e ./test_ill_program.o ls event syntax error: './test_ill_program.o' \___ Kernel verifier blocks program loading SKIP # perf record -e ./test_kversion_nomatch_program.o event syntax error: './test_kversion_nomatch_program.o' \___ Incorrect kernel version SKIP (Will be further improved by following patches) # perf record -e ./test_big_program.o event syntax error: './test_big_program.o' \___ Program too big SKIP Signed-off-by: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Zefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: pi3orama@163.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1446817783-86722-2-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2015-09-22tools lib traceevent: Fix string handling in heterogeneous arch environmentsKapileshwar Singh
When a trace recorded on a 32-bit device is processed with a 64-bit binary, the higher 32-bits of the address need to ignored. The lack of this results in the output of the 64-bit pointer value to the trace as the 32-bit address lookup fails in find_printk(). Before: burn-1778 [003] 548.600305: bputs: 0xc0046db2s: 2cec5c058d98c After: burn-1778 [003] 548.600305: bputs: 0xc0046db2s: RT throttling activated The problem occurs in PRINT_FIELD when the field is recognized as a pointer to a string (of the type const char *) Heterogeneous architectures cases below can arise and should be handled: * Traces recorded using 32-bit addresses processed on a 64-bit machine * Traces recorded using 64-bit addresses processed on a 32-bit machine Reported-by: Juri Lelli <juri.lelli@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Kapileshwar Singh <kapileshwar.singh@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Javi Merino <javi.merino@arm.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1442928123-13824-1-git-send-email-kapileshwar.singh@arm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2015-09-22tools lib bpf: Use FEATURE_USER to allow building in the same dir as perfArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
When building tools/lib/bpf as part of the tools/perf/ build process, which will happend when we introduce a patch wiring that up, we end up stomping on the feature detection caching mechanism, that uses a file in the output directory (O=) that is shared by libbpf and perf to check if something changed from one build to another that requires redoing the feature detection process. By using the recently introduced FEATURE_USER tools/build/ knob, we can avoid that: Before, every make invokation would run the feature detection: $ make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf make: Entering directory '/home/git/linux/tools/perf' Auto-detecting system features: ... dwarf: [ on ] ... glibc: [ on ] <SNIP> ... get_cpuid: [ on ] ... bpf: [ on ] GEN perf-archive GEN perf-with-kcore Auto-detecting system features: ... libelf: [ on ] ... bpf: [ on ] <SNIP> After: $ make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf make: Entering directory '/home/git/linux/tools/perf' BUILD: Doing 'make -j4' parallel build make: Leaving directory '/home/git/linux/tools/perf' $ Because we now have two different feature detection state files: $ ls -la /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP* -rw-rw-r--. 1 acme acme 338 Sep 21 17:25 /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP -rw-rw-r--. 1 acme acme 33 Sep 21 17:25 /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP.libbpf $ Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Cc: pi3orama@163.com Fixes: 1b76c13e4b36 ("bpf tools: Introduce 'bpf' library and add bpf feature check") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-s6ev9wfqy7pvvs58emys2g90@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2015-09-22tools lib bpf: Fix up FEATURE_{TESTS,DISPLAY} usageArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
When libbpf was introduced it wrongly asked for the "libelf" and "bpf" feature tests to be performed (via FEATURE_TESTS), while asking that "libbpf", "libelf-mmap", "libelf-getphdrnum" and "bpf" to have the result of its respective tests to be displayed (via FEATURE_DISPLAY). Due to another recently bug fixed in the tools/build/ infrastructure ("tools build: Fixup feature detection display function name") the results for the entries in the FEATURE_DISPLAY, for this case, were appearing as all succeeding, when two of them (the ones only on the DISPLAY) were not even being performed. Before: $ make -C tools/lib/bpf/ make: Entering directory '/home/git/linux/tools/lib/bpf' Auto-detecting system features: ... libelf: [ on ] ... libelf-getphdrnum: [ OFF ] ... libelf-mmap: [ OFF ] ... bpf: [ on ] <SNIP> After, with FEATURE_TESTS == FEATURE_DISPLAY: Auto-detecting system features: ... libelf: [ on ] ... libelf-getphdrnum: [ on ] ... libelf-mmap: [ on ] ... bpf: [ on ] <SNIP> I just inverted, so that it tests the four features but displays just the libelf and mmap ones, to make it more compact. So it becomes: $ make -C tools/lib/bpf/ make: Entering directory '/home/git/linux/tools/lib/bpf' Auto-detecting system features: ... libelf: [ on ] ... bpf: [ on ] Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Cc: pi3orama@163.com Fixes: 1b76c13e4b36 ("bpf tools: Introduce 'bpf' library and add bpf feature check") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-y4bd59e6j9rzzojiyeqrg2jq@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

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.

2015-08-31bpf tools: New API to get name from a BPF objectWang Nan
Before this patch there's no way to connect a loaded bpf object to its source file. However, during applying perf's '--filter' to BPF object, without this connection makes things harder, because perf loads all programs together, but '--filter' setting is for each object. The API of bpf_object__open_buffer() is changed to allow passing a name. Fortunately, at this time there's only one user of it (perf test LLVM), so we change it together.

2015-08-25tools/liblockdep: Use the rbtree header provided by common tools headersSasha Levin

2015-08-21tools lib traceevent: Add checks for returned EVENT_ERROR typeDean Nelson
Running the following perf-stat command on an arm64 system produces the following result... [root@aarch64 ~]# perf stat -e kmem:mm_page_alloc -a sleep 1 Warning: [kmem:mm_page_alloc] function sizeof not defined Warning: Error: expected type 4 but read 0 Segmentation fault [root@aarch64 ~]# The second warning was a result of the first warning not stopping processing after it detected the issue. That is, code that found the issue reported the first problem, but because it did not exit out of the functions smoothly, it caused the other warning to appear and not only that, it later caused the SIGSEGV.
