2017-09-15perf script python: Remove dups in documentation examplesSeongJae Park
commit 14fc42fa1b3e7ea5160c84d0e686a3a0c1ffe619 upstream. Few shell command examples in perf-script-python.txt has few nitpicks include: - tools/perf/scripts/python directory listing command is unnecessarily repeated. - few examples contain additional information in command prompt unnecessarily and inconsistently. This commit fixes them to enhance readability of the document.

2017-07-18perf symbols: Fix symbols__fixup_end heuristic for corner casesDaniel Borkmann
commit e7ede72a6d40cb3a30c087142d79381ca8a31dab upstream. The current symbols__fixup_end() heuristic for the last entry in the rb tree is suboptimal as it leads to not being able to recognize the symbol in the call graph in a couple of corner cases, for example: i) If the symbol has a start address (f.e. exposed via kallsyms) that is at a page boundary, then the roundup(curr->start, 4096) for the last entry will result in curr->start == curr->end with a symbol length of zero. ii) If the symbol has a start address that is shortly before a page boundary, then also here, curr->end - curr->start will just be very few bytes, where it's unrealistic that we could perform a match against. Instead, change the heuristic to roundup(curr->start, 4096) + 4096, so that we can catch such corner cases and have a better chance to find that specific symbol. It's still just best effort as the real end of the symbol is unknown to us (and could even be at a larger offset than the current range), but better than the current situation. Alexei reported that he recently run into case i) with a JITed eBPF program (these are all page aligned) as the last symbol which wasn't properly shown in the call graph (while other eBPF program symbols in the rb tree were displayed correctly). Since this is a generic issue, lets try to improve the heuristic a bit.

commit f447ef4a56dee4b68a91460bcdfe06b5011085f2 upstream. If a user calls 'cpupower set --perf-bias 15', the process will end with a SIGSEGV in libc because cpupower-set passes a NULL optarg to the atoi call. This is because the getopt_long structure currently has all of the options as having an optional_argument when they really have a required argument. We change the structure to use required_argument to match the short options and it resolves the issue.

commit b1e0d8b70fa31821ebca3965f2ef8619d7c5e316 upstream. The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not "gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers such as icecream do expect. This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel miscompilations. Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this incorrect -x parameter syntax.

commit eb9c5836384cd2a276254df6254ed71117983626 upstream. The out functions should only handle actual available data instead of the complete buffer. Otherwise for example the ep0_consume function will report ghost events since it tries to decode the complete buffer - which may contain partly invalid data.

2012-04-22perf hists: Catch and handle out-of-date hist entry maps.David Miller
commit 63fa471dd49e9c9ce029d910d1024330d9b1b145 upstream. When a process exec()'s, all the maps are retired, but we keep the hist entries around which hold references to those outdated maps. If the same library gets mapped in for which we have hist entries, a new map will be created. But when we take a perf entry hit within that map, we'll find the existing hist entry with the older map. This causes symbol translations to be done incorrectly. For example, the perf entry processing will lookup the correct uptodate map entry and use that to calculate the symbol and DSO relative address. But later when we update the histogram we'll translate the address using the outdated map file instead leading to conditions such as out-of-range offsets in symbol__inc_addr_samples(). Therefore, update the map of the hist_entry dynamically at lookup/ creation time. Signed-off-by: David S.

commit e7f01d1e3d8d501deb8abeaa269d5d48a703b8b0 upstream. Several places were expecting that the value returned was the number of characters printed, not what would be printed if there was space. Fix it by using the scnprintf and vscnprintf variants we inherited from the kernel sources. Some corner cases where the number of printed characters were not accounted were fixed too.

2012-03-23perf tools: Incorrect use of snprintf results in SEGVAnton Blanchard
commit b832796caa1fda8516464a003c8c7cc547bc20c2 upstream. I have a workload where perf top scribbles over the stack and we SEGV. What makes it interesting is that an snprintf is causing this. The workload is a c++ gem that has method names over 3000 characters long, but snprintf is designed to avoid overrunning buffers. So what went wrong? The problem is we assume snprintf returns the number of characters written: ret += repsep_snprintf(bf + ret, size - ret, "[%c] ", self->level); ... ret += repsep_snprintf(bf + ret, size - ret, "%s", self->ms.sym->name); Unfortunately this is not how snprintf works. snprintf returns the number of characters that would have been written if there was enough space. In the above case, if the first snprintf returns a value larger than size, we pass a negative size into the second snprintf and happily scribble over the stack. If you have 3000 character c++ methods thats a lot of stack to trample. This patch fixes repsep_snprintf by clamping the value at size - 1 which is the maximum snprintf can write before adding the NULL terminator. I get the sinking feeling that there are a lot of other uses of snprintf that have this same bug, we should audit them all.

commit 7a0153ee15575a4d07b5da8c96b79e0b0fd41a12 upstream. By adding following objects: bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o the x86_64 perf binary ended up with executable stack. The reason was that above object are assembler sourced and is missing the GNU-stack note section. In such case the linker assumes that the final binary should not be restricted at all and mark the stack as RWX. Adding section ".note.GNU-stack" definition to mentioned object, with all flags disabled, thus omiting this object from linker stack flags decision.

2012-02-20perf evsel: Fix an issue where perf report fails to show the proper percentageNaveen N. Rao
commit a4a03fc7ef89020baca4f19174e6a43767c6d78a upstream. This patch fixes an issue where perf report shows nan% for certain perf.data files. The below is from a report for a do_fork probe: -nan% sshd [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork -nan% packagekitd [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork -nan% dbus-daemon [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork -nan% bash [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork A git bisect shows commit f3bda2c as the cause. However, looking back through the git history, I saw commit 640c03c which seems to have removed the required initialization for perf_sample->period. The problem only started showing after commit f3bda2c. The below patch re-introduces the initialization and it fixes the problem for me. With the below patch, for the same perf.data: 73.08% bash [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork 8.97% 11-dhclient [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork 6.41% sshd [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork 3.85% 20-chrony [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork 2.56% sendmail [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork This patch applies over current linux-tip commit 9949284.

2011-11-03perf top: Fix live annotation in the --stdio interfaceArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
In the old --stdio interface the annotation is done just after one selects a symbol, while in --tui, now the default when the required libs are installed, we annotate all symbols with samples so that when annotation is asked we see what happened recently on that symbol. To achieve that the --stdio variant checks if the hist_entry being processed is the one selected by the user via the 's' hotkey. What happens now that we share the hist_entry abstractions with 'perf report' is that for minimizing locking contention multiple rb_trees are used, one for collecting the samples and other to browse/show them after resorting it by number of samples and decay them, which is done periodically. So the simple test in record_precise_ip doesn't work as we move hist_entries between those rb_trees. To fix it just check that the underlying struct symbol associated with those hist_entries is the same.
