Enabling --overwrite mode allows us to to use just the most recent
records, which helps in high core count machines such as Knights
Landing/Mill, but right now is being disabled by default as the pausing
used in this technique is leading to loss of metadata events such as
PERF_RECORD_MMAP which makes 'perf top' unable to resolve samples,
leading to lots of unknown samples appearing on the UI.
Enabling this may be useful if you are in such machines and profiling a
workload that doesn't creates short lived threads and/or doesn't uses
many executable mmap operations.
Work is being planed to solve this situation, till then, this will
remain disabled by default.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"The biggest change here is the updates to kprobes
Back in January I posted patches to create function based events.
These were the events that you suggested I make to allow developers to
easily create events in code where no trace event exists. After
posting those changes for review, it was suggested that we implement
this instead with kprobes.
The problem with kprobes is that the interface is too complex and
needs to be simplified. Masami Hiramatsu posted patches in March and
I've been playing with them a bit. There's been a bit of clean up in
the kprobe code that was inspired by the function based event patches,
and a couple of enhancements to the kprobe event interface.
- If the arch supports it (we added support for x86), you can place a
kprobe event at the start of a function and use $arg1, $arg2, etc
to reference the arguments of a function. (Before you needed to
know what register or where on the stack the argument was).
- The second is a way to see array of events. For example, if you
reference a mac address, you can add:
echo 'p:mac ip_rcv perm_addr=+574($arg2):x8[6]' > kprobe_events
And this will produce:
mac: (ip_rcv+0x0/0x140) perm_addr={0x52,0x54,0x0,0xc0,0x76,0xec}
Other changes include
- Exporting trace_dump_stack to modules
- Have the stack tracer trace the entire stack (stop trying to remove
tracing itself, as we keep removing too much).
- Added support for SDT in uprobes"
[ SDT - "Statically Defined Tracing" are userspace markers for tracing.
Let's not use random TLA's in explanations unless they are fairly
well-established as generic (at least for kernel people) - Linus ]

In ebebbf082357 ("perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite mode") we
forgot to leave a way to disable that new default, add a --overwrite
option that can be disabled using --no-overwrite, since the code already
in such a way that we can readily disable this mode.
This is useful when investigating bugs with this mode like the recent
report from David Miller where lots of unknown symbols appear due to
disabling the events while processing them which disables all record
types, not just PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE, which makes it impossible to resolve
maps when we lose PERF_RECORD_MMAP records.
This can be easily seen while building a kernel, when there are lots of
short lived processes.

The pathname beautifiers so far support just one augmented pathname per
syscall, so do it just for mount's first arg, later this will get fixed.
With:
# perf probe -l
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:73@acme/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname)
#
Later this will get added to augmented_syscalls.c (eBPF):
In one xterm:
# perf trace -e mount,umount
2687.331 ( 3.544 ms): mount/8892 mount(dev_name: /mnt, dir_name: 0x561f9ac184a0, type: 0x561f9ac1b170, flags: BIND) = 0
3912.126 ( 8.807 ms): umount/8895 umount2(name: /mnt) = 0
^C#
In the other:
$ sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt
$ sudo umount /mnt

By using the SCA_FILENAME beautifier, that works when either the
probe:vfs_getname probe is in place or with the eBPF program
tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_syscalls.c:
# perf probe -l
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:73@acme/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname)
# perf trace -e umount
9630.332 ( 9.521 ms): umount/8082 umount2(name: /mnt) = 0
#
The augmented syscalls one will be done in the next patch.

When trying to trace the 'umount' syscall on x86_64 I noticed that it
was failing:
# trace -e umount umount /mnt
event syntax error: 'umount'
\___ parser error
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
Usage: perf trace [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf trace [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
or: perf trace record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf trace record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
-e, --event <event> event/syscall selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
#
This is because in the x86-64 we have it just as 'umount2':
$ grep umount arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl
166 common umount2 __x64_sys_umount
$
So if the syscall name fails, try fallbacking to looking at the aliases
we have in the syscall_fmts table to then re-lookup, now:
# trace -e umount umount -f /mnt
umount: /mnt: not mounted.
1.759 ( 0.004 ms): umount/18365 umount2(name: 0x55fbfcbc4480, flags: 1) = -1 EINVAL Invalid argument
#
Time to beautify the flags arg :-)

Take mount's 'flags' arg, to cope with this semantic, as defined in do_mount in fs/namespace.c:
/*
* Pre-0.97 versions of mount() didn't have a flags word. When the
* flags word was introduced its top half was required to have the
* magic value 0xC0ED, and this remained so until 2.4.0-test9.
* Therefore, if this magic number is present, it carries no
* information and must be discarded.
*/
We need to mask this arg, and then see if it is zero, when we simply
don't print the arg name and value.
The next patch will use this for mount's 'flag' arg.

It'll use tools/include copy of linux/fs.h to generate a table to be
used by tools, initially by the 'mount' and 'umount' beautifiers in
'perf trace', but that could also be used to translate from a string
constant to the integer value to be used in a eBPF or tracefs tracepoint
filter.
When used without any args it produces:
$ tools/perf/trace/beauty/mount_flags.sh

We'll use it to create tables for the 'flags' argument to the 'mount'

Add it to check_headers.sh so that when a new protocol gets added we get
a notification during the build process.

By default 'perf script' for itrace outputs sampled instructions or
branches. In my experience this is confusing to users because it's hard
to correlate with real program behavior. The sampling makes sense for
tools like 'perf report' that actually sample to reduce the run time,
but run time is normally not a problem for 'perf script'. It's better
to give an accurate representation of the program flow.
Default 'perf script' to output all calls for itrace. That's a much saner
default. The old behavior can be still requested with 'perf script'

Add a report to display branches in a similar fashion to perf script. The
main purpose of this report is to display disassembly, however, presently,
the only supported disassembler is Intel XED, and additionally the object
code must be present in perf build ID cache.
To use Intel XED, libxed.so must be present. To build and install
libxed.so:
git clone https://github.com/intelxed/mbuild.git mbuild
git clone https://github.com/intelxed/xed
cd xed
./mfile.py --share
sudo ./mfile.py --prefix=/usr/local install

everything and used control+C, lets see if it works...
CREATE VIEW threads_view AS SELECT id,machine_id,(SELECT host_or_guest FROM machines_view WHERE id = machine_id) AS host_or_guest,process_id,pid,tid FROM threads
Humm, nope, just one of the cells got copied, even with everything selected :-)

class TreeItem represents items at all levels of the call-graph tree.
However, not all the levels represent the same data i.e. the top-level is
comms, the next level is threads, and subsequent levels are functions.
Consequently it is simpler to have separate classes for different levels
with commonality in a base class. Refactor TreeItem class accordingly.

When the perf script output is written to a terminal stream, the normal
output of `perf script` would get buffered, but its debug output would
be written directly. This made it quite hard to figure out where a given
debug output is coming from.
We can improve on this by flushing the output buffer after processing an
event. To see the value, compare the following output for a `perf script
-v` run:
Before this patch:

The script tool isn't using a browser, yet use_browser wasn't set
explicitly to zero. This in turn lead to confusing output such as:
```
$ perf script -vvv ...
...
overlapping maps in /home/milian/foobar (disable tui for more info)
...
```
Explicitly set use_browser to 0 now, which gives us the extended
debug information now in perf script as expected.

When we use machine__resolve() we grab a reference to
addr_location.thread (and in the future to other elements there) via
machine__findnew_thread(), so we must pair that with
addr_location__put(), else we'll never drop that thread when it exits
and no other remaining data structures have pointers to it. Fix it.

Because there may be more such events in the ring buffer that should be
discarded when an app decides to stop considering them.
At some point we'll do this with eBPF, this way we stop them at origin,
before they are placed in the ring buffer.

Currently, on x86-64, perf uses LFENCE and MFENCE (rmb() and mb(),
respectively) when processing events from the perf ring buffer which
is unnecessarily expensive as we can do more lightweight in particular
given this is critical fast-path in perf.
According to Peter rmb()/mb() were added back then via a94d342b9cb0
("tools/perf: Add required memory barriers") at a time where kernel
still supported chips that needed it, but nowadays support for these
has been ditched completely, therefore we can fix them up as well.
While for x86-64, replacing rmb() and mb() with smp_*() variants would
result in just a compiler barrier for the former and LOCK + ADD for
the latter (__sync_synchronize() uses slower MFENCE by the way), Peter
suggested we can use smp_{load_acquire,store_release}() instead for
architectures where its implementation doesn't resolve in slower smp_mb().
Thus, e.g. in x86-64 we would be able to avoid CPU barrier entirely due
to TSO. For architectures where the latter needs to use smp_mb() e.g.
on arm, we stick to cheaper smp_rmb() variant for fetching the head.
This work adds helpers ring_buffer_read_head() and ring_buffer_write_tail()
for tools infrastructure that either switches to smp_load_acquire() for
architectures where it is cheaper or uses READ_ONCE() + smp_rmb() barrier
for those where it's not in order to fetch the data_head from the perf
control page, and it uses smp_store_release() to write the data_tail.
Latter is smp_mb() + WRITE_ONCE() combination or a cheaper variant if
architecture allows for it. Those that rely on smp_rmb() and smp_mb() can
further improve performance in a follow up step by implementing the two
under tools/arch/*/include/asm/barrier.h such that they don't have to
fallback to rmb() and mb() in tools/include/asm/barrier.h.
Switch perf to use ring_buffer_read_head() and ring_buffer_write_tail()
so it can make use of the optimizations. Later, we convert libbpf as
well to use the same helpers.
Side note [0]: the topic has been raised of whether one could simply use
the C11 gcc builtins [1] for the smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release()
instead:
__atomic_load_n(ptr, __ATOMIC_ACQUIRE);
__atomic_store_n(ptr, val, __ATOMIC_RELEASE);
Kernel and (presumably) tooling shipped along with the kernel has a
minimum requirement of being able to build with gcc-4.6 and the latter
does not have C11 builtins. While generally the C11 memory models don't
align with the kernel's, the C11 load-acquire and store-release alone
/could/ suffice, however. Issue is that this is implementation dependent
on how the load-acquire and store-release is done by the compiler and
the mapping of supported compilers must align to be compatible with the
kernel's implementation, and thus needs to be verified/tracked on a
case by case basis whether they match (unless an architecture uses them
also from kernel side). The implementations for smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() in this patch have been adapted from the kernel side
ones to have a concrete and compatible mapping in place.

This simply adds the field to 'struct perf_evsel' and allows setting
it via the event parser, to test it lets trace trace:
First look at where in a function that receives an evsel we can put a probe
to read how evsel->max_events was setup:
# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf -L trace__event_handler
<trace__event_handler@/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/builtin-trace.c:0>
0 static int trace__event_handler(struct trace *trace, struct perf_evsel *evsel,
union perf_event *event __maybe_unused,
struct perf_sample *sample)
3 {
4 struct thread *thread = machine__findnew_thread(trace->host, sample->pid, sample->tid);
5 int callchain_ret = 0;
7 if (sample->callchain) {
8 callchain_ret = trace__resolve_callchain(trace, evsel, sample, &callchain_cursor);
9 if (callchain_ret == 0) {
10 if (callchain_cursor.nr < trace->min_stack)
11 goto out;
12 callchain_ret = 1;
}
}
See what variables we can probe at line 7:
# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf -V trace__event_handler:7
Available variables at trace__event_handler:7
@<trace__event_handler+89>
int callchain_ret
struct perf_evsel* evsel
struct perf_sample* sample
struct thread* thread
struct trace* trace
union perf_event* event
Add a probe at that line asking for evsel->max_events to be collected and named
as "max_events":
# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf trace__event_handler:7 'max_events=evsel->max_events'
Added new event:
probe_perf:trace__event_handler (on trace__event_handler:7 in /home/acme/bin/perf with max_events=evsel->max_events)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_perf:trace__event_handler -aR sleep 1
Now use 'perf trace', here aliased to just 'trace' and trace trace, i.e.
the first 'trace' is tracing just that 'probe_perf:trace__event_handler' event,
while the traced trace is tracing all scheduler tracepoints, will stop at two
events (--max-events 2) and will just set evsel->max_events for all the sched
tracepoints to 9, we will see the output of both traces intermixed:
# trace -e *perf:*event_handler trace --max-events 2 -e sched:*/nr=9/
0.000 :0/0 sched:sched_waking:comm=rcu_sched pid=10 prio=120 target_cpu=000
0.009 :0/0 sched:sched_wakeup:comm=rcu_sched pid=10 prio=120 target_cpu=000
0.000 trace/23949 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9
0.046 trace/23949 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9
#
Now, if the traced trace sends its output to /dev/null, we'll see just
what the first level trace outputs: that evsel->max_events is indeed
being set to 9:
# trace -e *perf:*event_handler trace -o /dev/null --max-events 2 -e sched:*/nr=9/
0.000 trace/23961 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9
0.030 trace/23961 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9
#
Now that we can set evsel->max_events, we can go to the next step, honour that
per-event property in 'perf trace'.

Allow stopping tracing after a number of events take place, considering
strace-like syscalls formatting as one event per enter/exit pair or when
in a multi-process tracing session a syscall is interrupted and printed
ending with '...'.
Examples included in the documentation:
Trace the first 4 open, openat or open_by_handle_at syscalls (in the future more syscalls may match here):
$ perf trace -e open* --max-events 4
[root@jouet perf]# trace -e open* --max-events 4
2272.992 ( 0.037 ms): gnome-shell/1370 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /proc/self/stat) = 31
2277.481 ( 0.139 ms): gnome-shell/3039 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /proc/self/stat) = 65
3026.398 ( 0.076 ms): gnome-shell/3039 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /proc/self/stat) = 65
