Frederic reported that because swevents handling doesn't disable IRQs anymore, we can get a recursion of perf_adjust_period(), once from overflow handling and once from the tick. If both call ->disable, we get a double hlist_del_rcu() and trigger a LIST_POISON2 dereference. Since we don't actually need to stop/start a swevent to re-programm the hardware (lack of hardware to program), simply nop out these callbacks for the swevent pmu.

When we use plain 'perf buildid-list' we use only what is in the buildid table in the perf.data header. And those have absolute pathnames because at 'perf record' time we used __perf_session__process_events and that doesn't sets up the path shortening code in map__new() that happens if symbol_conf.full_paths is false, the default. On the other hand, when we use 'perf buildid-list --with-hits' we process all the events using perf_session__process_events, adding entries to the global DSO list _after_ removing the current directory from the DSO name, for presentation purposes. Because of that we end up having two entries in the DSO list when recording events for binaries using relative pathnames. Fix it minimally by setting symbol_conf.full_paths to true when marking the DSOs with hits in 'perf buildid-list --with-hits', as used by 'perf archive' Right fix longer term is to shorten the path only at presentation time. Will be done for 2.6.36. Reported-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Tested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: David S.

event__process_task() doesn't propagate the comm copy on clone, but only on process fork. So we loose all the tid:comm resolution for tasks that aren't a main process thread. Progragate the per thread granularity to event__process_task for pid resolution. This fixes various unresolved pids in perf sched, especially when we trace multithread processes.

perf sched uses event__process_comm(), which means it can resolve comms from: - tasks that have exec'ed (kernel comm events) - tasks that were running when perf record started the actual recording (synthetized comm events) But perf sched can't resolve the pids of tasks that were created after the recording started. To solve this, we need to inherit the comms on fork events using event__process_task().

When we synthetize the existing running tasks though procfs, we walk through every threads of a process, queuing one comm events per tid. But then on report time, event__process_comm() only creates and sets the comm on a per process granularity. This is the right thing for comm events that came from the kernel, as they are only created on exec. Sub-threads then inherit their comm from fork events. But that doesn't work with our synthetized comm events taken from procfs informations as the per thread granularity is done on comm events directly there. Hence we need event__process_comm() to work with the tid rather than the pid. It won't change anything for comm events coming from the kernel but this will fix the synthetized ones. Before: $ ./perf report -D | grep COMM | grep firefox 0x2c7b8 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: firefox:5297 0x2c7d0 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: firefox:5297 0x2c7e8 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: firefox:5297 0x2c800 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: firefox:5297 0x2c818 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: firefox:5297 0x2c830 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: firefox:5297 After: $ ./perf report -D | grep COMM | grep firefox 0x2c7b8 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: firefox:5297 0x2c7d0 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: firefox:5299 0x2c7e8 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: firefox:5300 0x2c800 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: firefox:5308 0x2c818 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: firefox:5309 0x2c830 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: firefox:5312 This fixes various unresolved pid on perf sched.

Stephane Eranian authored
The transactional API patch between the generic and model-specific code introduced several important bugs with event scheduling, at least on X86. If you had pinned events, e.g., watchdog, and were over-committing the PMU, you would get bogus counts. The bug was showing up on Intel CPU because events would move around more often that on AMD. But the problem also existed on AMD, though harder to expose. The issues were: - group_sched_in() was missing a cancel_txn() in the error path - cpuc->n_added was not properly maintained, leading to missing actions in hw_perf_enable(), i.e., n_running being 0. You cannot update n_added until you know the transaction has succeeded. In case of failed transaction n_added was not adjusted back. - in case of failed transactions, event_sched_out() was called and eventually invoked x86_disable_event() to touch the HW reg. But with transactions, on X86, event_sched_in() does not touch HW registers, it simply collects events into a list. Thus, you could end up calling x86_disable_event() on a counter which did not correspond to the current event when idx != -1. The patch modifies the generic and X86 code to avoid all those problems. First, we keep track of the number of events added last. In case the transaction fails, we substract them from n_added. This approach is necessary (as opposed to delaying updates to n_added) because not all event updates use the transaction API, e.g., single events. Second, we encapsulate the event_sched_in() and event_sched_out() in group_sched_in() inside the transaction. That makes the operations symmetrical and you can also detect that you are inside a transaction and skip the HW reg access by checking cpuc->group_flag. With this patch, you can now overcommit the PMU even with pinned system-wide events present and still get valid counts.

Group siblings don't pin each-other or the parent, so when we destroy events we must make sure to clean up all cross referencing pointers. In particular, for destruction of a group leader we must be able to find all its siblings and remove their reference to it. This means that detaching an event from its context must not detach it from the group, otherwise we can end up failing to clear all pointers. Solve this by clearly separating the attachment to a context and attachment to a group, and keep the group composed until we destroy the events.
