The strncpy() function may leave the destination string buffer unterminated, better use strlcpy() that we have a __weak fallback implementation for systems without it. In this case the 'target' buffer is coming from a list of build-ids that are expected to have a len of at most (SBUILD_ID_SIZE - 1) chars, so probably we're safe, but since we're using strncpy() here, use strlcpy() instead to provide the intended safety checking without the using the problematic strncpy() function. This fixes this warning on an Alpine Linux Edge system with gcc 8.2: util/probe-file.c: In function 'probe_cache__open.isra.5': util/probe-file.c:427:3: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 41 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation] strncpy(sbuildid, target, SBUILD_ID_SIZE); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Fixes: 1f3736c9 ("perf probe: Show all cached probes") Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-l7n8ggc9kl38qtdlouke5yp5@git.kernel.orgSigned-off-by: -
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
The strncpy() function may leave the destination string buffer unterminated, better use strlcpy() that we have a __weak fallback implementation for systems without it. In this case we are actually setting the null byte at the right place, but since we pass the buffer size as the limit to strncpy() and not it minus one, gcc ends up warning us about that, see below. So, lets just switch to the shorter form provided by strlcpy(). This fixes this warning on an Alpine Linux Edge system with gcc 8.2: ui/tui/helpline.c: In function 'tui_helpline__push': ui/tui/helpline.c:27:2: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 512 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation] strncpy(ui_helpline__current, msg, sz)[sz - 1] = '\0'; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Fixes: e6e90468 ("perf ui: Introduce struct ui_helpline") Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-d1wz0hjjsh19xbalw69qpytj@git.kernel.orgSigned-off-by: -
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
The strncpy() function may leave the destination string buffer unterminated, better use strlcpy() that we have a __weak fallback implementation for systems without it. In this specific case this would only happen if fgets() was buggy, as its man page states that it should read one less byte than the size of the destination buffer, so that it can put the nul byte at the end of it, so it would never copy 255 non-nul chars, as fgets reads into the orig buffer at most 254 non-nul chars and terminates it. But lets just switch to strlcpy to keep the original intent and silence the gcc 8.2 warning. This fixes this warning on an Alpine Linux Edge system with gcc 8.2: In function 'cpu_model', inlined from 'svg_cpu_box' at util/svghelper.c:378:2: util/svghelper.c:337:5: error: 'strncpy' output may be truncated copying 255 bytes from a string of length 255 [-Werror=stringop-truncation] strncpy(cpu_m, &buf[13], 255); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Fixes: f48d55ce ("perf: Add a SVG helper library file") Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-xzkoo0gyr56gej39ltivuh9g@git.kernel.orgSigned-off-by: -

Since we make sure the destination buffer has at least strlen(orig) + 1, no need to do a strncpy(dest, orig, strlen(orig)), just use strcpy(dest, orig).

Use conditional variable logic to synchronize between the reading and processing threads. Currently it's done by having mutex around rotation code. Using a POSIX cond variable to sync both threads after queues rotation: Process thread: - Detects data - Switches queues - Sets rotate variable - Waits in pthread_cond_wait() Read thread: - Detects rotate is set - Kicks the process thread with a pthread_cond_signal() After this rotation is safely completed and both threads can continue with the new queue.

Add a new thread that takes care of the hist creating to alleviate the main reader thread so it can keep perf mmaps served in time so that we reduce the possibility of losing events. The 'perf top' command now spawns 2 extra threads, the data processing is the following: 1) The main thread reads the data from mmaps and queues them to ordered events object; 2) The processing threads takes the data from the ordered events object and create initial histogram; 3) The GUI thread periodically sorts the initial histogram and presents it. Passing the data between threads 1 and 2 is done by having 2 ordered events queues. One is always being stored by thread 1 while the other is flushed out in thread 2. Passing the data between threads 2 and 3 stays the same as was initially for threads 1 and 3. Signed-off-by: -

We can't display the UI box saying that we are slow in the reader thread. That will make 'perf top' even slower and the user even more angry ;-) Move the UI box message from the reader thread to the UI thread and change it to a helpline, so there's no need to 'press any key'. Signed-off-by:

The default timeout of 500ms for parsing /proc/<pid>/maps files is too short for profiling many of our services. This can be overridden by passing --proc-map-timeout to the relevant command but it'd be nice to globally increase our default value.

The breakpoint tests on the ARM 32-bit kernel are broken in several ways. The breakpoint length requested does not necessarily match whether the function address has the Thumb bit (bit 0) set or not, and this does matter to the ARM kernel hw_breakpoint infrastructure. See [1] for background. [1]: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/11/15/205 As Will indicated, the overflow handling would require single-stepping which is not supported at the moment. Just disable those tests for the ARM 32-bit platforms and update the comment above to explain these limitations. Co-developed-by:
