2019-09-25perf evsel: Introduce evsel_fprintf.hArnaldo Carvalho de Melo8-193/+213
We already had evsel_fprintf.c, add its counterpart, so that we can reduce evsel.h a bit more. We needed a new perf_event_attr_fprintf.c file so as to have a separate object to link with the python binding in tools/perf/util/python-ext-sources and not drag symbol_conf, etc into the python binding.

2019-09-25libperf: Use sys/types.h to get ssize_t, not unistd.hArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+1
The sys/types.h header looks more sensible, from its name we can gather it should be there because of some needed typedef, and it is much smaller than unistd.h, so use it and fix up the fallout in places where it was being used for something else entirely but being obtained by sheer luck, indirectly.

2019-09-25perf tools: No need to include internal/lib.h from util/util.hArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-1/+0
That was done just to have users of writen() and readn(), that before had their prototypes in util/util.h to get it without having to add an include for internal/lib.h, but the right way is to add it and by now all places already do it. Fix a fallout were readlink() was used but unistd.h was being obtained by luck thru util.h -> internal/lib.h, now to check why unistd.h is being included there...

2019-09-25libperf: Move 'page_size' global variable to libperfJiri Olsa12-13/+9
We need the 'page_size' variable in libperf, so move it there. Add a libperf_init() as a global libperf init function to obtain this value via sysconf() at tool start. Committer notes: Add internal/lib.h to tools/perf/ files using 'page_size', sometimes replacing util.h with it if that was the only reason for having util.h included.

2019-09-25perf evlist: Adopt backwards ring buffer state enumArnaldo Carvalho de Melo6-29/+33
As this isn't used at all in mmap.h but in evlist.h, so to cut down the header dependency tree, move it to where it is used. Also add mmap.h to the places using it but previously getting it indirectly via evlist.h. Add missing pthread.h to evlist.h, as it has a pthread_t struct member and was getting the header via mmap.h. Noticed while processing a Jiri's libperf batch touching mmap.h, where almost everything gets rebuilt because evlist.h is so popular, so cut down't this rebuild the world party.

2019-09-23perf record: Fix priv level with branch sampling for paranoid=2Stephane Eranian1-2/+4
Now that the default perf_events paranoid level is set to 2, a regular user cannot monitor kernel level activity anymore. As such, with the following cmdline: $ perf record -e cycles date The perf tool first tries cycles:uk but then falls back to cycles:u as can be seen in the perf report --header-only output: cmdline : /export/hda3/tmp/perf.tip record -e cycles ls event : name = cycles:u, , id = { 436186, ... } This is okay as long as there is way to learn the priv level was changed internally by the tool. But consider a similar example: $ perf record -b -e cycles date Error: You may not have permission to collect stats. Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid, which controls use of the performance events system by unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN). ... Why is that treated differently given that the branch sampling inherits the priv level of the first event in this case, i.e., cycles:u? It turns out that the branch sampling code is more picky and also checks exclude_hv. In the fallback path, perf record is setting exclude_kernel = 1, but it does not change exclude_hv. This does not seem to match the restriction imposed by paranoid = 2. This patch fixes the problem by forcing exclude_hv = 1 in the fallback for paranoid=2. With this in place: $ perf record -b -e cycles date cmdline : /export/hda3/tmp/perf.tip record -b -e cycles ls event : name = cycles:u, , id = { 436847, ... } And the command succeeds as expected. V2 fix a white space. Committer testing: After aplying the patch we get: [acme@quaco ~]$ perf record -b -e cycles date WARNING: Kernel address maps (/proc/{kallsyms,modules}) are restricted, check /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict and /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid.

2019-09-20perf session: Return error code for perf_session__new() function on failureMamatha Inamdar2-5/+15
This patch is to return error code of perf_new_session function on failure instead of NULL. Test Results: Before Fix: $ perf c2c report -input failed to open nput: No such file or directory $ echo $? 0 $ After Fix: $ perf c2c report -input failed to open nput: No such file or directory $ echo $? 254 $ Committer notes: Fix 'perf tests topology' case, where we use that TEST_ASSERT_VAL(..., session), i.e. we need to pass zero in case of failure, which was the case before when NULL was returned by perf_session__new() for failure, but now we need to negate the result of IS_ERR(session) to respect that TEST_ASSERT_VAL) expectation of zero meaning failure.

2019-09-20perf probe: Fix to clear tev->nargs in clear_probe_trace_event()Masami Hiramatsu1-0/+1
Since add_probe_trace_event() can reuse tf->tevs[i] after calling clear_probe_trace_event(), this can make perf-probe crash if the 1st attempt of probe event finding fails to find an event argument, and the 2nd attempt fails to find probe point. E.g. $ perf probe -D "task_pid_nr tsk" Failed to find 'tsk' in this function. Failed to get entry address of warn_bad_vsyscall Segmentation fault (core dumped) Committer testing: After the patch: $ perf probe -D "task_pid_nr tsk" Failed to find 'tsk' in this function.

2019-09-20perf probe: Skip same probe address for a given lineMasami Hiramatsu1-0/+19
Fix to skip making a same probe address on given line. Since a DWARF line info contains several entries for one line with different column, perf probe will make a different probe on same address if user specifies a probe point by "function:line" or "file:line". e.g. $ perf probe -D kernel_read:8 p:probe/kernel_read_L8 kernel_read+39 p:probe/kernel_read_L8_1 kernel_read+39 This skips such duplicated probe addresses.

2019-09-20perf kvm: Add arch neutral function to choose event for perf kvm recordAnju T Sudhakar1-0/+1
'perf kvm record' uses 'cycles'(if the user did not specify any event) as the default event to profile the guest. This will not provide any proper samples from the guest incase of powerpc architecture, since in powerpc the PMUs are controlled by the guest rather than the host. Patch adds a function to pick an arch specific event for 'perf kvm record', instead of selecting 'cycles' as a default event for all architectures. For powerpc this function checks for any user specified event, and if there isn't any it returns invalid instead of proceeding with 'cycles' event.

2019-09-20perf stat: Reset previous counts on repeat with intervalSrikar Dronamraju2-0/+18
When using 'perf stat' with repeat and interval option, it shows wrong values for events. The wrong values will be shown for the first interval on the second and subsequent repetitions. Without the fix: # perf stat -r 3 -I 2000 -e faults -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 5 2.000282489 53 faults 2.000282489 513 sched:sched_switch 4.005478208 3,721 faults 4.005478208 2,666 sched:sched_switch 5.025470933 395 faults 5.025470933 1,307 sched:sched_switch 2.009602825 1,84,46,74,40,73,70,95,47,520 faults <------ 2.009602825 1,84,46,74,40,73,70,95,49,568 sched:sched_switch <------ 4.019612206 4,730 faults 4.019612206 2,746 sched:sched_switch 5.039615484 3,953 faults 5.039615484 1,496 sched:sched_switch 2.000274620 1,84,46,74,40,73,70,95,47,520 faults <------ 2.000274620 1,84,46,74,40,73,70,95,47,520 sched:sched_switch <------ 4.000480342 4,282 faults 4.000480342 2,303 sched:sched_switch 5.000916811 1,322 faults 5.000916811 1,064 sched:sched_switch # prev_raw_counts is allocated when using intervals. This is used when calculating the difference in the counts of events when using interval. The current counts are stored in prev_raw_counts to calculate the differences in the next iteration. On the first interval of the second and subsequent repetitions, prev_raw_counts would be the values stored in the last interval of the previous repetitions, while the current counts will only be for the first interval of the current repetition. Hence there is a possibility of events showing up as big number. Fix this by resetting prev_raw_counts whenever perf stat repeats the command.
