Process of analyzing events caused by 2 functions: mmap_read() and finished_round(). During mmap_read(), perf receives events from shared memory, queues their pointers for further processing in finished_round() and notifies the kernel that the events have been processed. By the time when finished_round() is invoked, queued events can be overwritten by the kernel, so the finished_round() occurs on potentially corrupted memory. Since there is no place where the event can be safely consumed, let's copy events when queueing.

Alexander Yarygin authored
When processing events the session code has an ordered samples queue which is used to time-sort events coming in across multiple mmaps. At a later point in time samples on the queue are flushed up to some timestamp at which point the event is actually processed. When analyzing events live (ie., record/analysis path in the same command) there is a race that leads to corrupted events and parse errors which cause perf to terminate. The problem is that when the event is placed in the ordered samples queue it is only a reference to the event which is really sitting in the mmap buffer. Even though the event is queued for later processing the mmap tail pointer is updated which indicates to the kernel that the event has been processed. The race is flushing the event from the queue before it gets overwritten by some other event. For commands trying to process events live (versus just writing to a file) and processing a high rate of events this leads to parse failures and perf terminates. Examples hitting this problem are 'perf kvm stat live', especially with nested VMs which generate 100,000+ traces per second, and a command processing scheduling events with a high rate of context switching -- e.g., running 'perf bench sched pipe'. This patch offers live commands an option to copy the event when it is placed in the ordered samples queue.

The unw_addr_space_t in libunwind represents an address space to be used for stack unwinding. It doesn't need to be create/destory everytime to unwind callchain (as in get_entries) and can have a same lifetime as thread (unless exec called). So move the address space construction/destruction logic to the thread lifetime handling functions. This is a preparation to enable caching in the unwind library. Note that it saves unw_addr_space_t object using thread__set_priv(). It seems currently only used by perf trace and perf kvm stat commands which don't use callchain.

Add new rules for kernel PMU event. Currently, the patch only want to handle the PMU event name as "a-b" and "a". event_pmu: PE_KERNEL_PMU_EVENT sep_dc | PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE '-' PE_PMU_EVENT_SUF sep_dc PE_KERNEL_PMU_EVENT token is for cycles-ct/cycles-t/mem-loads/mem-stores. The prefix cycles is mixed up with cpu-cycles. loads and stores are mixed up with cache event So they have to be hardcode in lex. PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE and PE_PMU_EVENT_SUF tokens are for other PMU events. The lex looks generic identifier up in the table and return the matched token. If there is no match, generic PE_NAME token will be return. Using the rules, kernel PMU event could use new style format without // so you can use: perf record -e mem-loads ... instead of: perf record -e cpu/mem-loads/ Signed-off-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1412694532-23391-4-git-send-email-kan.liang@intel.comSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

There are two types of event formats for PMU events. E.g. el-abort OR cpu/el-abort/. However, the lexer mistakenly recognizes the simple style format as two events. The parse_events_pmu_check function uses bsearch to search the name in known pmu event list. It can tell the lexer that the name is a PE_NAME or a PMU event name prefix or a PMU event name suffix. All these information will be used for accurately parsing kernel PMU events. The pmu events list will be read from sysfs at runtime. Note: Currently, the patch only want to handle the PMU event name as "a-b" and "a". The only exception, "stalled-cycles-frontend" and "stalled-cycles-fronted", are already hardcoded in lexer.

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: Infrastructure fixes and changes: * Fix off-by-one bugs in map->end handling (Stephane Eranian) * Fix off-by-one bug in maps__find(), also related to map->end handling (Namhyung Kim) * Make struct symbol->end be the first addr after the symbol range, to make it match the convention used for struct map->end. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) * Fix perf_evlist__add_pollfd() error handling in 'perf kvm stat live' (Jiri Olsa) * Fix python test build by moving callchain_param to an object linked into the python binding (Jiri Olsa) * Do not include a struct hists per perf_evsel, untangling the histogram code from perf_evsel, to pave the way for exporting a minimalistic tools/lib/api/perf/ library usable by tools/perf and initially by the rasd daemon being developed by Borislav Petkov, Robert Richter and Jean Pihet. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) * Make perf_evlist__open(evlist, NULL, NULL), i.e. without cpu and thread maps mean syswide monitoring, reducing the boilerplate for tools that only want system wide mode.

To follow vm_area_struct->vm_end convention. By adhering to the convention that ->end is the first address outside the symbol's range we can do things like: sym->end = start + len; len = sym->end - sym->start; This is also now the convention used for struct map->end, fixing some off-by-one bugs.

When synthesizing maps from files that have incomplete symbol information, like kallsyms, we need to fixup the end of maps by seting its end from the ->start of the next map, fix it to set prev_map->end to curr_map->start, since ->end is the first byte outside prev_map address range.

This patch fixes off-by-one errors in the management of maps. A map is defined by start address and length as implemented by map__new(): map__init(map, type, start, start + len, pgoff, dso); map->start = addr; map->end = end; Consequently, the actual address range is [start; end[ map->end is the first byte outside the range. This patch fixes two bugs where upper bound checking was off-by-one. In V2, we fix map_groups__fixup_overlappings() some more where map->start was off-by-one as reported by Jiri.

A segfault happens on 'perf test hists_link' because we end up using a struct machines on the stack, and then machines__init() was not initializing the newly introduced rb_root, just the existing list_head. When we introduced struct dsos, to group the two ways to store dsos, i.e. the linked list and the rbtree, we didn't turned the initialization done in: machines__init(machines->host) -> machine__init() -> INIT_LIST_HEAD into a dsos__init() to keep on initializing the list_head but _as well_ initializing the rb_root, oops. All worked because outside perf-test we probably zalloc the whole thing which ends up initializing it in to NULL. So the problem looks contained to 'perf test' that uses it on stack, etc. Reported-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Acked-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hp.com>, Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>, Cc: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Cc: Douglas Hatch <doug.hatch@hp.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Scott J Norton <scott.norton@hp.com> Cc: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hp.com>, Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20141014180353.GF3198@kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Now tools that deals want to have an hists per evsel need to call hists__init() before creating any evsels, which can be as early as when parsing the command line, so do it before calling parse_options(). The current tools using hists/hist_entries are report, top and annotate, change them to request per evsel hists. This is in preparation for making evsels usable by 3rd party tools, that not necessarily live in perf's source code repository.

Provide a method to be called at tool start to config the perf_evsel instance size, together with optional constructor and destructor. This will be used so that perf_evsel doesn't always include a struct hists, tools that works with hists/hist_entries, like report, top and annotate, will, at start, tell the evsel class the size they need per instance. v2: Don't use exit as a name of a member of function parameter, as this breaks the build on at least fedora14 and rhel6.

Now perf_session doesn't require that the evsels in its evlist are hists containing ones. Tools that are hists based and want to do per evsel events_stats updates, if at some point this turns into a necessity, should do it in the tool specific code, keeping the session class hists agnostic.
