* perf session: Fix infinite loop in __perf_session__process_eventsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2011-01-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In this if statement: if (head + event->header.size >= mmap_size) { if (mmaps[map_idx]) { munmap(mmaps[map_idx], mmap_size); mmaps[map_idx] = NULL; } page_offset = page_size * (head / page_size); file_offset += page_offset; head -= page_offset; goto remap; } With, for instance, these values: head=2992 event->header.size=48 mmap_size=3040 We end up endlessly looping back to remap. Off by one. Problem introduced in 55b4462.

* perf tools: Pass whole attr to event selectorsLin Ming2011-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 69aad6f1(perf tools: Introduce event selectors), only perf_event_attr::type and ::config are passed to event selector, which makes perf tool not work correctly. For example, PEBS does not work because perf_event_attr::precise_ip is not passed to the syscall.

* perf tools: Fix buffer overflow error when specifying all tracepointsHan Pingtian2011-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I found when specifying all tracepoints with -e to one of subcommand, such as 'stat', the program will trigger a buffer overflow error, like this: *** buffer overflow detected ***: ./perf terminated ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib64/libc.so.6(__fortify_fail+0x37)[0x382cefb2c7] .... The tracepoints are separated by comma, something like this: $ perf stat -a -e `perf list |grep Tracepoint|awk -F'[' '{gsub(/[[:space:]]+/,"",$1);array[FNR]=$1}END{outputs=array[1];for (i=2;i<=FNR;i++){ outputs=outputs "," array[i];};print outputs}'` The root reason of this problem is that store_event_type() is called for all events, and will overflow the 'filename' at: strncat(filename, orgname, strlen(orgname)); This patch fixes it by calling store_event_type() only when the event name has been found.

* perf tools: Fix perf_event.h header usageStephane Eranian2011-01-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes the usage of the perf_event.h header file between command modules and the supporting code in util. It is necessary to ensure that ALL files use the SAME perf_event.h header from the kernel source tree. There were a couple of #include <linux/perf_event.h> mixed with #include "../../perf_event.h". This caused issues on some distros because of mismatch in the layout of struct perf_event_attr. That eventually led perf stat to segfault. Cc: David S.

| * perf: Fix callchain hit bad cast on ascii displayFrederic Weisbecker2011-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ipchain__fprintf_graph() casts the number of hits in a branch as an int, which means we lose its highests bits. This results in meaningless number of callchain hits in perf.data that have a high number of hits recorded, typically those that have callchain branches hits appearing more than INT_MAX. This happens easily as those are pondered by the event period.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the libdwfl library before 0.148 fails to analyze live kernel debuginfo, 'perf probe --list' compiled with those old libdwfl sometimes crashes. To avoid that bug, perf probe does not use libdwfl's live kernel analysis routine when it is compiled with older libdwfl. Side effect: perf with older libdwfl doesn't support listing probe in modules with source code line. Those could be shown by symbol+offset.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For kallsyms we don't have the symbol address end, so we do an extra pass and set the symbol end addr as being the start of the next minus one. But this was being done just after we filtered the symbols of a particular type (functions, variables), so the symbol end was sometimes after what it really is. Fixing up symbol end also was falling apart when we have symbol aliases, then the end address of all but the last alias was being set to be before its start. Fix it up by checking for symbol aliases and making the kallsyms__parse routine use the next symbol, whatever its type, as the limit for the previous symbol, passing that end address to the callback. This was detected by the 'perf test' synthetic paranoid regression tests, fix it up so that even that case doesn't mislead us.

* | perf probe: Don't always consider EOF as an error when listing source codeFranck Bui-Huu2010-12-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When listing a whole file or a function which is located at the end, perf-probe -L output wrongly: "Source file is shorter than expected.". This is because show_one_line() always consider EOF as an error. This patch fixes this by not considering EOF as an error when dumping the trailing lines. Otherwise it's still an error and perf-probe still outputs its warning.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The symfs argument allows analysis of perf.data file using a locally accessible filesystem tree with debug symbols - e.g., tree created during image builds, sshfs mount, loop mounted KVM disk images, USB keys, initrds, etc. Anything with an OS tree can be analyzed from anywhere without the need to populate a local data store with build-ids. Commiter notes: o Fixed up symfs="/" variants handling. o prefixed DSO__ORIG_GUEST_KMODULE case with symfs too, avoiding use of files outside the symfs directory.

* | perf session: Fallback to unordered processing if no sample_id_allIan Munsie2010-12-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we are running the new perf on an old kernel without support for sample_id_all, we should fall back to the old unordered processing of events. If we didn't than we would *always* process events without timestamps out of order, whether or not we hit a reordering race. In other words, instead of there being a chance of not attributing samples correctly, we would guarantee that samples would not be attributed. While processing all events without timestamps before events with timestamps may seem like an intuitive solution, it falls down as PERF_RECORD_EXIT events would also be processed before any samples. Even with a workaround for that case, samples before/after an exec would not be attributed correctly. This patch allows commands to indicate whether they need to fall back to unordered processing, so that commands that do not care about timestamps on every event will not be affected. If we do fallback, this will print out a warning if report -D was invoked. This patch adds the test in perf_session__new so that we only need to test once per session. Commands that do not use an event_ops (such as record and top) can simply pass NULL in it's place.

| * perf symbols: Figure out start address of kernel map from kallsymsMing Lei2010-11-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On ARM, module symbol start address is ahead of kernel symbol start address, so we can't suppose that the start address of kernel map always is zero, otherwise may cause incorrect .start and .end of kernel map (caused by fixup) when there are modules loaded, then map_groups__find may return incorrect map for symbol query. This patch always figures out the start address of kernel map from /proc/kallsyms if the file is available, so fix the issues on ARM for module loaded case. This patch fixes the following issues on ARM when modules are loaded: - vmlinux symbol can't be found by kallsyms maps doing 'perf test' - module symbols are parsed mistakenlly when doing 'perf top'/'perf report' Cc: Ian Munsie <imunsie@au1.ibm.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <20101125192725.62d31b42@tom-lei> Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
