To test it check tools/perf/python/twatch.py, after following the
instructions there to enable context_switch, output looks like:

The function can return negative value, assigning it to unsigned
variable can cause memory corruption.
The problem has been detected using proposed semantic patch
scripts/coccinelle/tests/unsigned_lesser_than_zero.cocci [1].

Currently we dont fail properly when pattern matching fails to find any

This patch change:
$ perf record -e 'sched:krava*' sleep 1
event syntax error: 'sched:krava*'
\___ unknown tracepoint
Error: File /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/krava* not found.

Sorting on 'symbol' gives to broad a resolution as it can cover a range
of IP address. Use the iaddr instead to get proper sorting on IP
addresses. Need to use the 'mem_sort' feature of perf record.
New sort option is: symbol_iaddr, header label is 'Code Symbol'.
$ perf mem report --stdio -F +symbol_iaddr

Allow probing on kernel modules when 'perf' is built without debuginfo
support.
Currently perf-probe --module requires linking with libdw, but this
doesn't make sense.
E.g.
----
# make NO_DWARF=1
# ./perf probe -m pcspkr pcspkr_event%return
Error: unknown switch `m'
----
With this patch
----
# ./perf probe -m pcspkr pcspkr_event%return
Added new event:
probe:pcspkr_event (on pcspkr_event%return in pcspkr)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:pcspkr_event -aR sleep 1

Some PMUs, like the 'intel_bts' one can be used as an event name, i.e.:
$ perf record -e intel_bts:// usleep 1
Is a valid event name.
But the code printing such PMUs was not honouring the 'event_glob'
parameter, so the following line was always appearing:
$ intel_bts// [Kernel PMU event]
Fix it:
$ [acme@felicio linux]$ perf list data
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
uncore_imc/data_reads/ [Kernel PMU event]
uncore_imc/data_writes/ [Kernel PMU event]

The patch f9db0d0f1b2c ("perf callchain: Allow disabling call graphs
per event") added an ability to enable/disable callchain recording per
event. But it had a problem when the enablement setting is changed at
'perf report' time using -g/--call-graph option.
For example, the following scenario will get a segfault.
$ perf record -ag sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.500 MB perf.data (2555 samples) ]
$ perf report -g none
perf: Segmentation fault
-------- backtrace --------
perf[0x53a98a]
/usr/lib/libc.so.6(+0x335af)[0x7f4e91df95af]
This is because callchain_param.sort() callback was not set but it
tried to call the function as it had the PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN bit.

If the user doesn't specify any event, try the most precise "cycles"
available, i.e. start by "cycles:ppp" and go on removing "p" till it
works.
E.g.
$ perf record usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (11 samples) ]
$ perf evlist
cycles:pp
$ perf evlist -v
cycles:pp: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type:
IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1,
enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, precise_ip: 2, sample_id_all: 1,
exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
$ grep 'model name' /proc/cpuinfo | head -1
model name : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3667U CPU @ 2.00GHz
$
When 'cycles' appears explicitely is specified this will not be tried,
i.e. the user has full control of the level of precision to be used:
$ perf record -e cycles usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.016 MB perf.data (9 samples) ]
$ perf evlist
cycles
$ perf evlist -v
cycles: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type:
IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1,

perf probe --list will get a segfault if the first kprobe event is on a

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

This is because the debuginfo_cache fails to handle NULL module name,
which causes segfault on strcmp. (Note that strcmp("something", NULL)
always causes segfault)
To fix this debuginfo_cache__open always translates the NULL module name
to "kernel" (this is correct, because NULL module name means opening the
debuginfo for the kernel)

Perf probe always failed to find appropriate line numbers because of
failing to find .text start address offset from debuginfo.
e.g.
----
# ./perf probe -m pcspkr pcspkr_event:5

probe:pcspkr_event (on pcspkr_event:5 in pcspkr)
probe:pcspkr_event_1 (on pcspkr_event:5 in pcspkr)

# ./perf probe -l

This fixes the above issue as below.
1. Get the relative address of the symbol in .text by using
map->start.
2. Adjust the address by adding the offset of .text section
in the kernel module binary.
With this fix, perf probe -l shows lines correctly.

Since the previous commit 35a23ff928b0 ("perf probe: Cut off the gcc

numbered events, therefore we'll have an error when we add additional
events on the same dot suffix functions.

It is about binding, not type, we have just a letter in kallsyms that
should map both for the ELF type (STT_FUNC, etc) and to the ELF
symbol binding (STB_WEAK, STB_GLOBAL, etc), so rename it now before
introducing kallsyms2_elf_type()

The perf_regs.c file does not get built on Powerpc as CONFIG_PERF_REGS
is false. So the weak definition for 'sample_regs_masks' doesn't get
picked up.
Adding perf_regs.o to util/Build unconditionally, exposes a redefinition
error for 'perf_reg_value()' function (due to the static inline version
in util/perf_regs.h). So use #ifdef HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT' around that
function.

This patch enables config terms for tracepoint perf events. Valid terms
for tracepoint events are 'call-graph' and 'stack-size', so we can use
different callgraph settings for each event and eliminate unnecessary
overhead.
Here is an example for using different call-graph config for each
tracepoint.
$ perf record -e syscalls:sys_enter_write/call-graph=fp/
-e syscalls:sys_exit_write/call-graph=no/

Show proper error message and show valid terms when wrong config terms
is specified for hw/sw type perf events.
This patch makes the original error format function formats_error_string()
more generic, which only outputs the static config terms for hw/sw perf
events, and prepends pmu formats for pmu events.
Before this patch:
$ perf record -e 'cpu-clock/freqx=200/' -a sleep 1
invalid or unsupported event: 'cpu-clock/freqx=200/'
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
-e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
After this patch:
$ perf record -e 'cpu-clock/freqx=200/' -a sleep 1
event syntax error: 'cpu-clock/freqx=200/'
\___ unknown term
valid terms: config,config1,config2,name,period,freq,branch_type,time,call-graph,stack-size
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

Currently, function config_term() is used for checking config terms of
all types of events, while unknown terms is not reported as an error
because pmu events have valid terms in sysfs.
But this is wrong when unknown terms are specificed to hw/sw events.
This patch Adds the config_term callback so we can use separate check
routines for each type of events.

autofdo incorrectly expects branch flags to include either mispred or
predicted. In fact mispred = predicted = 0 is valid and means the flags
are not supported, which they aren't by Intel PT.
To make autofdo work, add a config option which will cause Intel PT
decoder to set the mispred flag on all branches.
Below is an example of using Intel PT with autofdo. The example is
also added to the Intel PT documentation. It requires autofdo
(https://github.com/google/autofdo) and gcc version 5. The bubble
sort example is from the AutoFDO tutorial (https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/AutoFDO/Tutorial)
amended to take the number of elements as a parameter.
$ gcc-5 -O3 sort.c -o sort_optimized
$ ./sort_optimized 30000
Bubble sorting array of 30000 elements
2254 ms
$ cat ~/.perfconfig
[intel-pt]
mispred-all
$ perf record -e intel_pt//u ./sort 3000
Bubble sorting array of 3000 elements
58 ms
[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.939 MB perf.data ]
$ perf inject -i perf.data -o inj --itrace=i100usle --strip
$ ./create_gcov --binary=./sort --profile=inj --gcov=sort.gcov -gcov_version=1
$ gcc-5 -O3 -fauto-profile=sort.gcov sort.c -o sort_autofdo
$ ./sort_autofdo 30000
Bubble sorting array of 30000 elements
2155 ms
Note there is currently no advantage to using Intel PT instead of LBR,
but that may change in the future if greater use is made of the data.

Add support for generating branch stack context for PT samples. The
decoder reports a configurable number of branches as branch context for
each sample. Internally it keeps track of them by using a simple sliding
window. We also flush the last branch buffer on each sample to avoid
overlapping intervals.
This is useful for:
- Reporting accurate basic block edge frequencies through the perf
report branch view
- Using with --branch-history to get the wider context of samples
- Other users of LBRs
Also the Documentation is updated.
Examples:
Record with Intel PT:
perf record -e intel_pt//u ls
Branch stacks are used by default if synthesized so:
perf report --itrace=ile
is the same as:
perf report --itrace=ile -b
Branch history can be requested also:
perf report --itrace=igle --branch-history

TSC packets contain only 7 bytes of TSC. The 8th byte is assumed to
change so infrequently that its value can be inferred. However the
logic must cater for a 7 byte wraparound, which it does by adding 1 to
the top byte.
The existing code was doing that with a while loop even though the
addition should only need to be done once. That logic won't work (will
loop forever) if TSC wraps around at the 8th byte. Theoretically that
would take at least 10 years, unless something else went wrong.
And what else could go wrong. Well, if the chunks of trace data are
processed out of order, it will make it look like the 7-byte TSC has
gone backwards (i.e. wrapped). If that happens 256 times then stuck in
the while loop it will be.
Fix that by getting rid of the unnecessary while loop.

Instruction tracing options (i.e. --itrace) include an option for
sampling instructions at an arbitrary period. e.g.
--itrace=i10us
means make an 'instructions' sample for every 10us of trace.
Currently the logic does not distinguish between a period of
zero and no period being specified at all, so it gets treated
as the default period which is 100000. That doesn't really
make sense.
Fix it so that zero period is accepted and treated as meaning
"as often as possible".
In the case of Intel PT that is the same as a period of 1 and
a unit of 'instructions' (i.e. --itrace=i1i).

A copy of /proc/kcore containing the kernel text can be made to the
buildid cache. e.g.
perf buildid-cache -v -k /proc/kcore
To workaround objdump limitations, a copy is also made when annotating
against /proc/kcore.
The copying process stops working from libelf about v1.62 onwards (the
problem was found with v1.63).
The cause is that a call to gelf_getphdr() in kcore__add_phdr() fails
because additional validation has been added to gelf_getphdr().
The use of gelf_getphdr() is a misguided attempt to get default
initialization of the Gelf_Phdr structure. That should not be
necessary because every member of the Gelf_Phdr structure is
subsequently assigned. So just remove the call to gelf_getphdr().
Similarly, a call to gelf_getehdr() in gelf_kcore__init() can be
removed also.
Committer notes:
Note to stable@kernel.org, from Adrian in the cover letter for this
patchkit:
The "Fix copying of /proc/kcore" problem goes back to v3.13 if you think
it is important enough for stable.
