The test to check if the arg format had been read from the
syscall:sys_enter_name/format file was looking at the list of non-commom
fields, and if that is empty, it would think it had failed to read it,
because it doesn't exist, for instance, for the clone() syscall.
So instead before dumping the raw syscall args list check
IS_ERR(sc->tp_format), if that is true, then an attempt was made to read
the format file and failed, in which case dump the raw arg list values.

In perf_mmap__read(), give better names to pointers. Original name 'old'
and 'head' directly related to pointers in ring buffer control page. For
backward ring buffer, the meaning of 'head' point is not 'the first byte
of free space', but 'the first byte of the last record'. To reduce
confusion, rename 'old' to 'start', 'head' to 'end'. 'start' -> 'end'
is the direction the records should be read from.
Change parameter order.
Change 'overwrite' to 'check_messup'. When reading from 'head', no need
to check messup for for backward ring buffer.

ppc64le functions have a Global Entry Point (GEP) and a Local Entry
Point (LEP). While placing a probe, we always prefer the LEP since it
catches function calls through both the GEP and the LEP. In order to do
this, we fixup the function entry points during elf symbol table lookup
to point to the LEPs. This works, but breaks 'perf test kallsyms' since
the symbols loaded from the symbol table (pointing to the LEP) do not
match the symbols in kallsyms.
To fix this, we do not adjust all the symbols during symbol table load.
Instead, we note down st_other in a newly introduced arch-specific
member of perf symbol structure, and later use this to adjust the probe
trace point.

So far, we used to treat probe point offsets as being offset from the
LEP. However, userspace applications (objdump/readelf) always show
disassembly and offsets from the function GEP. This is confusing to the
user as we will end up probing at an address different from what the
user expects when looking at the function disassembly with
readelf/objdump. Fix this by changing how we modify probe address with
perf.
If only the function name is provided, we assume the user needs the LEP.
Otherwise, if an offset is specified, we assume that the user knows the
exact address to probe based on function disassembly, and so we just
place the probe from the GEP offset.
Finally, kretprobe was also broken with kallsyms as we were trying to
specify an offset. This patch also fixes that issue.

Sometimes we want to sort an existing rbtree by a different key,
introduce a template for that, that needs only to be provided the
rbtree root and the number of entries in it.
To do that a new rbtree will be created with extra space for each entry,
where possibly pre-calculated keys will be stored to be used in the
resort process and also later, when using the newly sorted rbtree.
Please check the following two changesets to see it in use for resorting
stats for threads and its syscalls in 'perf trace --summary'.

sigaltstack()'s reported previous state uses a somewhat odd
convention, but the concept of flag bits is new, and we can do the
flag bits sensibly. Specifically, let's just report them directly.
This will allow saving and restoring the sigaltstack state using
sigaltstack() to work correctly.

can often cause one to allocate a buffer much smaller than it is needed.

The cost of buildid cache processing is high: reading all events in
output perf.data, opening each elf file to read buildids then copying
them into ~/.debug directory. In switch output mode, these heavy works
block perf from receiving perf events for too long.
Enable no-buildid and no-buildid-cache by default if --switch-output is
provided. Still allow user use --no-no-buildid to explicitly enable
buildid in this case.

Use 'trigger' to model operations which need to be executed when an
event (a signal, for example) is observed.
States and transits:
OFF--(on)--> READY --(hit)--> HIT
^ |
| (ready)
| |
\_____________/
is_hit and is_ready are two key functions to query the state of a
trigger. is_hit means the event already happen; is_ready means the
trigger is waiting for the event.

When the kernel allows tweaking perf_event_max_stack and the event being
setup has PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN in its perf_event_attr.sample_type, tell
the user that tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack may solve
the problem.
Before:
# echo 32000 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
# perf record -g usleep 1
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 12 (Cannot allocate memory) for event (cycles:ppp).
/bin/dmesg may provide additional information.
No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?
#
After:
# echo 64000 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
# perf record -g usleep 1
Error:
Not enough memory to setup event with callchain.
Hint: Try tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
Hint: Current value: 64000

/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
There is an upper limit to what tooling considers a valid callchain,
and it was tied to the hardcoded value in the kernel,
PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH (127), now that this can be tuned via a sysctl,
make it read it and use that as the upper limit, falling back to
PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH for kernels where this sysctl isn't present.

Perf is not able to register probe in kernel module when dwarf supprt
is not there(and so it goes for symtab). Perf passes full path of
module where only module name is required which is causing the problem.
This patch fixes this issue.
Before applying patch:
$ dpkg -s libdw-dev
dpkg-query: package 'libdw-dev' is not installed and no information is...
$ sudo ./perf probe -m /linux/samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.ko kprobe_init
Added new event:
probe:kprobe_init (on kprobe_init in /linux/samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.ko)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:kprobe_init -aR sleep 1
$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
p:probe/kprobe_init /linux/samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.ko:kprobe_init
$ sudo ./perf record -a -e probe:kprobe_init
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.105 MB perf.data ]
$ sudo ./perf script # No output here

Perf can add a probe on kernel module which has not been loaded yet.
The current implementation finds the module name from path. But if the
filename is different from the actual module name then perf fails to
register a probe while loading module because of mismatch in the names.
For example, samples/kobject/kobject-example.ko is loaded as
kobject_example.
Before applying patch:
$ sudo ./perf probe -m /linux/samples/kobject/kobject-example.ko foo_show
Added new event:
probe:foo_show (on foo_show in kobject-example)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:foo_show -aR sleep 1
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
p:probe/foo_show kobject-example:foo_show
$ insmod kobject-example.ko
$ lsmod
Module Size Used by
kobject_example 16384 0
Generate read to /sys/kernel/kobject_example/foo while recording data
with below command
$ sudo ./perf record -e probe:foo_show -a
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.093 MB perf.data ]
$./perf report --stdio -F overhead,comm,dso,sym
Error:
The perf.data.old file has no samples!

We get notifications for threads that gets created while we're tracing,
but for preexisting threads we may end not having synthesized them, like
when tracing a 'perf trace' session that will use '--pid' to trace some
other thread.
And besides we should probably stop synthesizing those records and
instead read thread information in a lazy way, i.e. just when we need,
like done in this patch:
Now the 'pid_t' argument in 'perf_event_open' gets translated to a COMM:
# perf trace -e perf_event_open perf stat -e cycles -p 31601
0.027 ( 0.027 ms): perf/23393 perf_event_open(attr_uptr: 0x2fdd0d8, pid: 31601 (abrt-dump-journ), cpu: -1, group_fd: -1, flags: FD_CLOEXEC)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
= 3
^C
And in other syscalls containing pid_t without thread->comm_set at the
time of the formatting.
