When perf/data is recorded with the dwarf call-graph option, the callchain shown by 'perf script' still shows the binary offsets of the userspace symbols instead of their virtual addresses. Since the symbol offset calculation is based on using virtual address as the ip, we see incorrect offsets as well. The use of virtual addresses affects the ability to find out the line number in the corresponding source file to which an address maps to as described in commit 67540759 ("perf unwind: Use addr_location::addr instead of ip for entries"). This has also been addressed by temporarily converting the virtual address to the correponding binary offset so that it can be mapped to the source line number correctly. This is a follow-up for commit 19610184 ("perf script: Show virtual addresses instead of offsets"). This can be verified on a powerpc64le system running Fedora 27 as shown below: # perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so -a inet_pton # perf record -e probe_libc:inet_pton --call-graph=dwarf ping -6 -c 1 ::1 Before: # perf report --stdio --no-children -s sym,srcline -g address # Samples: 1 of event 'probe_libc:inet_pton' # Event count (approx.): 1 # # Overhead Symbol Source:Line # ........ .................... ........... # 100.00% [.] __GI___inet_pton inet_pton.c | ---gaih_inet getaddrinfo.c:537 (inlined) __GI_getaddrinfo getaddrinfo.c:2304 (inlined) main ping.c:519 generic_start_main libc-start.c:308 (inlined) __libc_start_main libc-start.c:102 ... # perf script -F comm,ip,sym,symoff,srcline,dso ping 15af28 __GI___inet_pton+0xffff000099160008 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) libc-2.26.so[ffff80004ca0af28] 10fa53 gaih_inet+0xffff000099160f43 libc-2.26.so[ffff80004c9bfa53] (inlined) 1105b3 __GI_getaddrinfo+0xffff000099160163 libc-2.26.so[ffff80004c9c05b3] (inlined) 2d6f main+0xfffffffd9f1003df (/usr/bin/ping) ping[fffffffecf882d6f] 2369f generic_start_main+0xffff00009916013f libc-2.26.so[ffff80004c8d369f] (inlined) 23897 __libc_start_main+0xffff0000991600b7 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) libc-2.26.so[ffff80004c8d3897] After: # perf report --stdio --no-children -s sym,srcline -g address # Samples: 1 of event 'probe_libc:inet_pton' # Event count (approx.): 1 # # Overhead Symbol Source:Line # ........ .................... ........... # 100.00% [.] __GI___inet_pton inet_pton.c | ---gaih_inet.constprop.7 getaddrinfo.c:537 getaddrinfo getaddrinfo.c:2304 main ping.c:519 generic_start_main.isra.0 libc-start.c:308 __libc_start_main libc-start.c:102 ... # perf script -F comm,ip,sym,symoff,srcline,dso ping 7fffb38aaf28 __GI___inet_pton+0x8 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) inet_pton.c:68 7fffb385fa53 gaih_inet.constprop.7+0xf43 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) getaddrinfo.c:537 7fffb38605b3 getaddrinfo+0x163 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) getaddrinfo.c:2304 130782d6f main+0x3df (/usr/bin/ping) ping.c:519 7fffb377369f generic_start_main.isra.0+0x13f (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) libc-start.c:308 7fffb3773897 __libc_start_main+0xb7 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) libc-start.c:102 Signed-off-by: Sandipan Das <sandipan@linux.ibm.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Milian Wolff <milian.wolff@kdab.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Naveen N.

This should speed up accessing new system calls introduced with the kernel rather than waiting for libaudit updates to include them. It also enables users to specify wildcards, for example, perf trace -e 'open*', just like was already possible on x86, s390, and powerpc, which means arm64 can now pass the "Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname" test.

This should speed up accessing new system calls introduced with the kernel rather than waiting for libaudit updates to include them. Using the existing other arch scripts resulted in this error: tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls//mksyscalltbl: 25: printf: __NR3264_ftruncate: expected numeric value because, unlike other arches, asm-generic's unistd.h does things like: #define __NR_ftruncate __NR3264_ftruncate Turning the scripts printf's %d into a %s resulted in this in the generated syscalls.c file: static const char *syscalltbl_arm64[] = { [__NR3264_ftruncate] = "ftruncate", So we use the host C compiler to fold the macros, and print them out from within a temporary C program, in order to get the correct output: static const char *syscalltbl_arm64[] = { [46] = "ftruncate", Committer notes: Testing this with a container with an old toolchain breaks because it ends up using the system's /usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h, included from tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h when what is desired is for it to include tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h. Since all that tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h is to set a define and then include asm-generic/unistd.h, do that directly and use tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h as the file to get the syscall definitions to expand.

If the event 'probe_libc:inet_pton' already exists, this test fails and deletes the existing event before exiting. This will then pass for any subsequent executions. Instead of skipping to deleting the existing event because of failing to add a new event, a duplicate event is now created and the script continues with the usual checks. Only the new duplicate event that is created at the beginning of the test is deleted as a part of the cleanups in the end. All existing events remain as it is. This can be observed on a powerpc64 system running Fedora 27 as shown below. # perf probe -x /usr/lib64/power8/libc-2.26.so -a inet_pton Added new event: probe_libc:inet_pton (on inet_pton in /usr/lib64/power8/libc-2.26.so) Before: # perf test -v "probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping" 62: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping : --- start --- test child forked, pid 21302 test child finished with -1 ---- end ---- probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping: FAILED! # perf probe --list After: # perf test -v "probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping" 62: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping : --- start --- test child forked, pid 21490 ping 21513 [035] 39357.565561: probe_libc:inet_pton_1: (7fffa4c623b0) 7fffa4c623b0 __GI___inet_pton+0x0 (/usr/lib64/power8/libc-2.26.so) 7fffa4c190dc gaih_inet.constprop.7+0xf4c (/usr/lib64/power8/libc-2.26.so) 7fffa4c19c4c getaddrinfo+0x15c (/usr/lib64/power8/libc-2.26.so) 111d93c20 main+0x3e0 (/usr/bin/ping) test child finished with 0 ---- end ---- probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping: Ok # perf probe --list probe_libc:inet_pton (on __inet_pton@resolv/inet_pton.c in /usr/lib64/power8/libc-2.26.so) Signed-off-by: Sandipan Das <sandipan@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Kim Phillips <kim.phillips@arm.com> Cc: Naveen N.

For powerpc64, perf will filter out the second entry in the callchain, i.e. the LR value, if the return address of the function corresponding to the probed location has already been saved on its caller's stack. The state of the return address is determined using debug information. At any point within a function, if the return address is already saved somewhere, a DWARF expression can tell us about its location. If the return address in still in LR only, no DWARF expression would exist. Typically, the instructions in a function's prologue first copy the LR value to R0 and then pushes R0 on to the stack. If LR has already been copied to R0 but R0 is yet to be pushed to the stack, we can still get a DWARF expression that says that the return address is in R0. This is indicating that getting a DWARF expression for the return address does not guarantee the fact that it has already been saved on the stack. This can be observed on a powerpc64le system running Fedora 27 as shown below. # objdump -d /usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so | less ... 000000000015af20 <inet_pton>: 15af20: 0b 00 4c 3c addis r2,r12,11 15af24: e0 c1 42 38 addi r2,r2,-15904 15af28: a6 02 08 7c mflr r0 15af2c: f0 ff c1 fb std r30,-16(r1) 15af30: f8 ff e1 fb std r31,-8(r1) 15af34: 78 1b 7f 7c mr r31,r3 15af38: 78 23 83 7c mr r3,r4 15af3c: 78 2b be 7c mr r30,r5 15af40: 10 00 01 f8 std r0,16(r1) 15af44: c1 ff 21 f8 stdu r1,-64(r1) 15af48: 28 00 81 f8 std r4,40(r1) ... # readelf --debug-dump=frames-interp /usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so | less ... 00027024 0000000000000024 00027028 FDE cie=00000000 pc=000000000015af20..000000000015af88 LOC CFA r30 r31 ra 000000000015af20 r1+0 u u u 000000000015af34 r1+0 c-16 c-8 r0 000000000015af48 r1+64 c-16 c-8 c+16 000000000015af5c r1+0 c-16 c-8 c+16 000000000015af78 r1+0 u u ... # perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so -a inet_pton+0x18 # perf record -e probe_libc:inet_pton -g ping -6 -c 1 ::1 # perf script Before: ping 2829 [005] 512917.460174: probe_libc:inet_pton: (7fff7e2baf38) 7fff7e2baf38 __GI___inet_pton+0x18 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) 7fff7e2705b4 getaddrinfo+0x164 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) 12f152d70 _init+0xbfc (/usr/bin/ping) 7fff7e1836a0 generic_start_main.isra.0+0x140 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) 7fff7e183898 __libc_start_main+0xb8 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) After: ping 2829 [005] 512917.460174: probe_libc:inet_pton: (7fff7e2baf38) 7fff7e2baf38 __GI___inet_pton+0x18 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) 7fff7e26fa54 gaih_inet.constprop.7+0xf44 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) 7fff7e2705b4 getaddrinfo+0x164 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) 12f152d70 _init+0xbfc (/usr/bin/ping) 7fff7e1836a0 generic_start_main.isra.0+0x140 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) 7fff7e183898 __libc_start_main+0xb8 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so) 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) Reported-by: Ravi Bangoria <ravi.bangoria@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Sandipan Das <sandipan@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Maynard Johnson <maynard@us.ibm.com> Cc: Naveen N.

For powerpc64, redundant entries in the callchain are filtered out by determining the state of the return address and the stack frame using DWARF debug information. For making these filtering decisions we must analyze the debug information for the location corresponding to the program counter value, i.e. the first entry in the callchain, and not the LR value; otherwise, perf may filter out either the second or the third entry in the callchain incorrectly.

With commit eca0fa28 ("perf record: Provide detailed information on s390 CPU") s390 platform provides detailed type/model/capacity information in the CPU identifier string instead of just "IBM/S390". This breaks 'perf kvm' support which uses hard coded string IBM/S390 to compare with the CPU identifier string. Fix this by changing the comparison.

The 'perf stat' command line flag -T to display transaction counters is currently supported for x86 only. Add support for s390. It is based on the metrics flag -M transaction using the architecture dependent JSON files. This requires a metric named "transaction" in the JSON files for the platform. Introduce a new function metricgroup__has_metric() to check for the existence of a metric_name transaction. As suggested by Andi Kleen, this is the new approach to support transactions counters. Other architectures will follow. Output before: [root@p23lp27 perf]# ./perf stat -T -- sleep 1 Cannot set up transaction events [root@p23lp27 perf]# Output after: [root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf stat -T -- ~/mytesttx 1 >/tmp/111 Performance counter stats for '/root/mytesttx 1': 1 tx_c_tend # 13.0 transaction 1 tx_nc_tend 11 tx_nc_tabort 0 tx_c_tabort_special 0 tx_c_tabort_no_special 0.001070109 seconds time elapsed [root@s35lp76 perf]# Suggested-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Richter <tmricht@linux.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Hendrik Brueckner <brueckner@linux.ibm.com> Acked-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180626071701.58190-1-tmricht@linux.ibm.comSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Like vm_area_dup(), it initializes the anon_vma_chain head, and the basic mm pointer. The rest of the fields end up being different for different users, although the plan is to also initialize the 'vm_ops' field to a dummy entry. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

.. and re-initialize th eanon_vma_chain head. This removes some boiler-plate from the users, and also makes it clear why it didn't need use the 'zalloc()' version. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The vm_area_struct is one of the most fundamental memory management objects, but the management of it is entirely open-coded evertwhere, ranging from allocation and freeing (using kmem_cache_[z]alloc and kmem_cache_free) to initializing all the fields. We want to unify this in order to end up having some unified initialization of the vmas, and the first step to this is to at least have basic allocation functions. Right now those functions are literally just wrappers around the kmem_cache_*() calls. This is a purely mechanical conversion: # new vma: kmem_cache_zalloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -> vm_area_alloc() # copy old vma kmem_cache_alloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -> vm_area_dup(old) # free vma kmem_cache_free(vm_area_cachep, vma) -> vm_area_free(vma) to the point where the old vma passed in to the vm_area_dup() function isn't even used yet (because I've left all the old manual initialization alone).
