* perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variablesIrina Tirdea2012-09-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking unused variables. The variable __used is defined to __attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to __attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored __unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition. If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name in its headers. The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android. This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with __maybe_unused.

* perf symbols: Use both runtime and debug imagesCody P Schafer2012-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We keep both a 'runtime' elf image as well as a 'debug' elf image around and generate symbols by looking at both of these. This eliminates the need for the want_symtab/goto restart mechanism combined with iterating over and reopening the elf images a second time. Also give dso__synthsize_plt_symbols() the runtime image (which has dynsyms) instead of the symbol image (which may only have a symtab and no dynsyms). Previously if a debug image was found all runtime images were ignored. This fixes 2 issues: - Symbol resolution to failure on PowerPC systems with debug symbols installed, as the debug images lack a '.opd' section which contains function descriptors. - On all archs, plt synthesis failed when a debug image was loaded and that debug image lacks a dynsym section while a runtime image has a dynsym section. Assumptions: - If a .opd section exists, it is contained in the highest priority image with a dynsym section. - This generally implies that the debug image lacks a dynsym section (ie: it is marked as NO_BITS).

* perf symbols: Convert dso__load_syms to take 2 symsrc'sCody P Schafer2012-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To properly handle platforms with an opd section, both a runtime image (which contains the opd section but possibly lacks symbols) and a symbol image (which probably lacks an opd section but has symbols). The next patch ("perf symbol: use both runtime and debug images") adjusts the callsite in dso__load() to take advantage of being able to pass both runtime & debug images. Assumptions made here: - The opd section, if it exists in the runtime image, has headers in both the runtime image and the debug/syms image. - The index of the opd section (again, only if it exists in the runtime image) is the same in both the runtime and debug/symbols image. Both of these are true on RHEL, but it is unclear how accurate they are in general (on platforms with function descriptors in opd sections).

The goal here is to keep multiple elfs (and their looked up sections/indexes) around during the symbol generation process (in dso__load()).

It would be possible to just keep the (Elf *) around, but then we'd end up with duplicate code for looking up the same sections and checking for the existence of an important section wouldn't be as clean (and we need to keep the Elf stuff confined to symtab-elf.c).

* perf symbols: Remove unused 'end' arg in kallsyms parse cbCody P Schafer2012-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kallsyms__parse() takes a callback that is called on every discovered symbol. As /proc/kallsyms does not supply symbol sizes, the callback was simply called with end=start, faking the symbol size to 1. All of the callbacks (there are 2) used in calls to kallsyms__parse() are _only_ used as callbacks for kallsyms__parse().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In kallsyms_parse() when calling process_symbol() (a callback argument to kallsyms_parse()), we pass start as both start & end (ie: start=start, end=start).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Only want to process directories under the guestmnount directory that have a pid as a name (ie, all digits). Other entries in the guestmount directory should be ignored. There is already a check that requires the first character of each entry to be a digit, but atoi is used to convert the directory name to a pid. For example if guestmount contains a directory with the name 1foo, atoi converts it to a pid of 1 and a machine is created with a pid of 1. This is wrong; this directory really should be ignored. Use strtol to do that.

If it's not present it fills the cache from file, and returns the data. If it is present, data are returned with no file read. Each data read is cached by reading cache page sized/aligned amount of DSO data. The cache page size is hardcoded to 4096. The cache is using RB tree with file offset as a sort key.

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."

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When loading symbols from DSO we check multiple paths of DSO binary until we succeed to load symbols ('.symtab' section). Once symbols are read we try to load also plt symbols. During the reading of plt symbols, the dso file is reopened from location given by dso->long_name. This could be wrong in case we want process buildid binaries. The change is to make the plt symbols being read from the DSO path, that normal symbols were read from.

* perf script: Unify the expressions indicating "unknown"Akihiro Nagai2012-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The perf script command uses various expressions to indicate "unknown". It is unfriendly for user scripts to parse it. So, this patch unifies the expressions to "[unknown]".

* perf tools: Fix broken build by defining _GNU_SOURCE in MakefileDavid Daney2012-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When building on my Debian/mips system, util/util.c fails to build because commit 1aed2671738785e8f5aea663a6fda91aa7ef59b5 (perf kvm: Do guest-only counting by default) indirectly includes stdio.h before the feature selection in util.h is done. This prevents _GNU_SOURCE in util.h from enabling the declaration of getline(), from now second inclusion of stdio.h, and the build is broken. There is another breakage in util/evsel.c caused by include ordering, but I didn't fully track down the commit that caused it. The root cause of all this is an inconsistent definition of _GNU_SOURCE, so I move the definition into the Makefile so that it is passed to all invocations of the compiler and used uniformly for all system header files. All other #define and #undef of _GNU_SOURCE are removed as they cause conflicts with the definition passed to the compiler. All the features.h definitions (_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 and _GNU_SOURCE) are needed by the python glue code too, so they are moved to BASIC_CFLAGS, and the misleading comments about BASIC_CFLAGS are removed. This gives me a clean build on x86_64 (fc12) and mips (Debian).

* perf symbols: Increase symbol KSYM_NAME_LEN sizeRicardo Ribalda Delgado2011-10-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fglrx propietary driver has symbol names over 128 chars (:S). This breaks the function kallsyms__parse. This fix increases the size of KSYM_NAME_LEN, so kallsyms__parse can work on such kernels. The only counterparty, is that such function requires 128 more bytes to work.
