This script sets `perf_db_export_mode = True`. With `perf_db_export_mode` enabled, if a sample originates from a hypervisor, perf doesn't set maps for "[H]" sample in the code. Consequently, `al->maps` remains NULL when `maps__machine(al->maps)` is called from `db_export__sample`. As al->maps can be NULL in case of Hypervisor samples , use thread->maps because even for Hypervisor sample, machine should exist. If we don't have machine for some reason, return -1 to avoid segmentation fault.

2025-06-09perf test trace: Change the regex pattern in the struct testHoward Chu
Ian mentioned a reliably occurred failure in the trace_btf_general test where he obtained trace output of: sleep/279619 clock_nanosleep(0, 0, {1,1,}, 0x7ffcd47b6450) = 0 But the regex pattern used for verification is "^sleep/[0-9]+ clock_nanosleep\(0, 0, \{1,\}, ..." This lead to a mismatch. The reason is, different sleep commands use different timespec data to call clock_nanosleep, on my machine, the value of tv_nsec is 0. ~~~ $ sudo /tmp/perf/perf trace -e clock_nanosleep -- sleep 1 0.000 (1000.196 ms): sleep/54261 clock_nanosleep(rqtp: { .tv_sec: 1, .tv_nsec: 0 }, rmtp: 0x7ffe13529550) = 0 ~~~ While Ian had this trace log: ~~~ $ sudo /tmp/perf/perf trace -e clock_nanosleep -- sleep 1 0.000 (1000.208 ms): sleep/1710732 clock_nanosleep(rqtp: { .tv_sec: 1, .tv_nsec: 1 }, rmtp: 0x7ffc091f4090) = 0 ~~~ Because sleep's behavior of setting 'tv_nsec' is not certain, and tv_sec is most definitely 1, this patch relaxes the key regex pattern to '\{1,.*\}' for a better chance of matching.

2025-06-09perf test trace: Use --sort-events in BTF general testsHoward Chu
Without the '--sort-events' flag, perf trace doesn't receive and process events based on their arrival time, thus PERF_RECORD_COMM event that assigns the correct comm to a PID, may be delivered and processed after regular samples, causing trace outputs not having a 'comm', e.g. 'mv', instead, having the default PID placeholder, e.g. ':14514'. Hopefully this answers Namhyung's question in [1]. You can simply justify the statement with this diff: [2]. Now, simply run this command multiple times: $ touch /tmp/file1 && sudo /tmp/perf trace -e renameat* -- mv /tmp/file1 /tmp/file2 && rm -f /tmp/file2 And you should see two types of results: $ touch /tmp/file1 && sudo /tmp/perf trace -e renameat* -- mv /tmp/file1 /tmp/file2 && rm -f /tmp/file2 [debug] deliver [debug] machine__process_comm_event [OVERRIDE] old :1221169 new mv str mv [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver 0.000 ( 0.013 ms): mv/1221169 renameat2(olddfd: CWD, oldname: "/tmp/file1", newdfd: CWD, newname: "/tmp/file2", flags: NOREPLACE) = 0 [debug] deliver $ touch /tmp/file1 && sudo /tmp/perf trace -e renameat* -- mv /tmp/file1 /tmp/file2 && rm -f /tmp/file2 [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver 0.000 ( 0.014 ms): :1221398/1221398 renameat2(olddfd: CWD, oldname: "/tmp/file1", newdfd: CWD, newname: "/tmp/file2", flags: NOREPLACE) = 0 [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] machine__process_comm_event [OVERRIDE] old :1221398 new mv str mv [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver Anyway, use --sort-events in BTF general tests to avoid :PID, a comm is preferred.

It was originally called 'timer:hrtimer_init', before being renamed in: commit 244132c4e577 ("tracing/timers: Rename the hrtimer_init event to hrtimer_setup") Using timer:hrtimer_start should be enough for current testing, and hopefully 'start' won't be renamed in the future.

2025-06-09perf test trace: Remove set -e and print trace test's error messagesHoward Chu

This patch removes set -e and prints the error message after invoking perf trace during perf tests.

This allows demangling tests to pass with NO_LIBELF=1. Structurally, while moving the functions rename demangle_sym() to dso__demangle_sym() which is already a function exposed in symbol.h and the only purpose of which in symbol-elf.c was to call demangle_sym().

2025-05-28perf symbol: Fix use-after-free in filename__read_build_idIan Rogers
The same buf is used for the program headers and reading notes. As the notes memory may be reallocated then this corrupts the memory pointed to by the phdr. Using the same buffer is in any case a logic error. Rather than deal with the duplicated code, introduce an elf32 boolean and a union for either the elf32 or elf64 headers that are in use. Let the program headers have their own memory and grow the buffer for notes as necessary. Before `perf list -j` compiled with asan would crash with: ``` ==4176189==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-use-after-free on address 0x5160000070b8 at pc 0x555d3b15075b bp 0x7ffebb5a8090 sp 0x7ffebb5a8088 READ of size 8 at 0x5160000070b8 thread T0 #0 0x555d3b15075a in filename__read_build_id tools/perf/util/symbol-minimal.c:212:25 #1 0x555d3ae43aff in filename__sprintf_build_id tools/perf/util/build-id.c:110:8 ... 0x5160000070b8 is located 312 bytes inside of 560-byte region [0x516000006f80,0x5160000071b0) freed by thread T0 here: #0 0x555d3ab21840 in realloc (perf+0x264840) (BuildId: 12dff2f6629f738e5012abdf0e90055518e70b5e) #1 0x555d3b1506e7 in filename__read_build_id tools/perf/util/symbol-minimal.c:206:11 ... previously allocated by thread T0 here: #0 0x555d3ab21423 in malloc (perf+0x264423) (BuildId: 12dff2f6629f738e5012abdf0e90055518e70b5e) #1 0x555d3b1503a2 in filename__read_build_id tools/perf/util/symbol-minimal.c:182:9 ... ``` Note: this bug is long standing and not introduced by the other asan fix in commit fa9c4977fbfb ("perf symbol-minimal: Fix double free in filename__read_build_id").
