2016-09-01perf probe: Ignore vmlinux Build-id when offline vmlinux givenMasami Hiramatsu
Ignore vmlinux build-id when user gives offline vmlinux if the command does not affect running kernel. perf-probe has several actions some of them does not change the running kernel, like --lines, --vars, and --funcs. e.g. ----- $ ./perf probe -k ./vmlinux-arm -V do_sys_open:14 Available variables at do_sys_open:14 @<do_sys_open+202> char* filename int dfd int fd int flags struct filename* tmp struct open_flags op umode_t mode ----- Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/147222347320.5088.2582658035296667520.stgit@devbox Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2016-09-01perf probe: Ignore vmlinux buildid if offline kernel is givenMasami Hiramatsu
Ignore the buildid of running kernel when both of --definition and --vmlinux is given because that kernel should be off-line. This also skips post-processing of kprobe event for relocating symbol and checking blacklist, because it can not be done on off-line kernel. E.g. without this fix perf shows an error as below ---- $ perf probe --vmlinux=./vmlinux-arm --definition do_sys_open ./vmlinux-arm with build id 7a1f76dd56e9c4da707cd3d6333f50748141434b not found, continuing without symbols Failed to find symbol do_sys_open in kernel Error: Failed to add events. ---- with this fix, we can get the definition ---- $ perf probe --vmlinux=./vmlinux-arm --definition do_sys_open p:probe/do_sys_open do_sys_open+0 ---- Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/147214228193.23638.12581984840822162131.stgit@devbox Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2016-07-12tools: Introduce str_error_r()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else. But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine Linux, where musl libc is used. So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is returned.

2016-07-01perf probe: Remove caches when --cache is givenMasami Hiramatsu
'perf probe --del' removes caches when '--cache' is given. Note that the delete pattern is not the same as for normal events. If you cached probes with event name, --del "eventname" works as expected. However, if you skipped it, the cached probes doesn't have actual event name. In that case --del "probe-desc" is required (wildcard is acceptable). For example a cache entry has the probe-desc "vfs_read $params", you can remove it with --del 'vfs_read*'. ----- # perf probe --cache --list /[kernel.kallsyms] (1466a0a250b5d0070c6d0f03c5fed30b237970a1): vfs_read $params /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so (c31ffe7942bfd77b2fca8f9bd5709d387a86d3bc): getaddrinfo $params # perf probe --cache --del vfs_read\* Removed cached event: probe:vfs_read # perf probe --cache --list /[kernel.kallsyms] (1466a0a250b5d0070c6d0f03c5fed30b237970a1): /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so (c31ffe7942bfd77b2fca8f9bd5709d387a86d3bc): getaddrinfo $params ----- Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Brendan Gregg <brendan.d.gregg@gmail.com> Cc: Hemant Kumar <hemant@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/146736021651.27797.10250879847070772920.stgit@devbox Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2015-12-14perf tools: Make options always available, even if required libs not linkedWang Nan
This patch keeps options of perf builtins same in all conditions. If one option is disabled because of compiling options, users should be notified. Masami suggested another implementation in [1] that, by adding a OPTION_NEXT_DEPENDS option before those options in the 'struct option' array, options parser knows an option is disabled. However, in some cases this array is reordered (options__order()). In addition, in parse-option.c that array is const, so we can't simply merge information in decorator option into the affacted option. This patch chooses a simpler implementation that, introducing a set_option_nobuild() function and two option parsing flags. Builtins with such options should call set_option_nobuild() before option parsing. The complexity of this patch is because we want some of options can be skipped safely. In this case their arguments should also be consumed. Options in 'perf record' and 'perf probe' are fixed in this patch.

2015-09-21perf probe: Fix a segfault when removing uprobe eventsMasami Hiramatsu
Fix a segfault bug and a small mistake in perf probe -d. Since the "ulist" in perf_del_probe_events is never initialized, strlist__add(ulist, *) always causes a segfault when removing uprobe events by perf probe -d. Also, the "str" local variable is never released if fail to allocate the "klist". This fixes it too.

2015-05-12perf probe: Add --range option to show a variable's location rangeHe Kuang
It is not easy for users to get the accurate byte offset or the line number where a local variable can be probed. With '--range' option, local variables in the scope of the probe point are showed with a byte offset range, and can be added according to this range information. For example, there are some variables in the function generic_perform_write(): <generic_perform_write@mm/filemap.c:0> 0 ssize_t generic_perform_write(struct file *file, 1 struct iov_iter *i, loff_t pos) 2 { 3 struct address_space *mapping = file->f_mapping; 4 const struct address_space_operations *a_ops = mapping->a_ops; ... 42 status = a_ops->write_begin(file, mapping, pos, bytes, flags, &page, &fsdata); 44 if (unlikely(status < 0)) But we fail when we try to probe the variable 'a_ops' at line 42 or 44. $ perf probe --add 'generic_perform_write:42 a_ops' Failed to find the location of a_ops at this address. Perhaps, it has been optimized out. This is because the source code do not match the assembly, so a variable may not be available in the source code line where it appears. After this patch, we can lookup the accurate byte offset range of a variable, 'INV' indicates that this variable is not valid at the given point, but available in the scope: $ perf probe --vars 'generic_perform_write:42' --range Available variables at generic_perform_write:42 @<generic_perform_write+141> [INV] ssize_t written @<generic_perform_write+[324-331]> [INV] struct address_space_operations* a_ops @<generic_perform_write+[55-61,170-176,223-246]> [VAL] (unknown_type) fsdata @<generic_perform_write+[70-307,346-411]> [VAL] loff_t pos @<generic_perform_write+[0-286,286-336,346-411]> [VAL] long int status @<generic_perform_write+[83-342,346-411]> [VAL] long unsigned int bytes @<generic_perform_write+[122-311,320-338,346-403,403-411]> [VAL] struct address_space* mapping @<generic_perform_write+[35-344,346-411]> [VAL] struct iov_iter* i @<generic_perform_write+[0-340,346-411]> [VAL] struct page* page @<generic_perform_write+[70-307,346-411]> Then it is more clear for us to add a probe with this variable: $ perf probe --add 'generic_perform_write+170 a_ops' Added new event: probe:generic_perform_write (on generic_perform_write+170 with a_ops) Signed-off-by: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1431336304-16863-2-git-send-email-hekuang@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2013-12-26perf probe: Support basic dwarf-based operations on uprobe eventsMasami Hiramatsu
Support basic dwarf(debuginfo) based operations for uprobe events. With this change, perf probe can analyze debuginfo of user application binary to set up new uprobe event. This allows perf-probe --add(with local variables, line numbers) and --line works with -x option. (Actually, --vars has already accepted -x option) For example, the following command shows the probe-able lines of a given user space function. Something that so far was only available in the 'perf probe' tool for kernel space functions: # ./perf probe -x perf --line map__load <map__load@/home/fedora/ksrc/linux-2.6/tools/perf/util/map.c:0> 0 int map__load(struct map *map, symbol_filter_t filter) 1 { 2 const char *name = map->dso->long_name; int nr; 5 if (dso__loaded(map->dso, map->type)) 6 return 0; 8 nr = dso__load(map->dso, map, filter); 9 if (nr < 0) { 10 if (map->dso->has_build_id) { And this shows the available variables at the given line of the function. # ./perf probe -x perf --vars map__load:8 Available variables at map__load:8 @<map__load+96> char* name struct map* map symbol_filter_t filter @<map__find_symbol+112> char* name symbol_filter_t filter @<map__find_symbol_by_name+136> char* name symbol_filter_t filter @<map_groups__find_symbol_by_name+176> char* name struct map* map symbol_filter_t filter And lastly, we can now define probe(s) with all available variables on the given line: # ./perf probe -x perf --add 'map__load:8 $vars' Added new events: probe_perf:map__load (on map__load:8 with $vars) probe_perf:map__load_1 (on map__load:8 with $vars) probe_perf:map__load_2 (on map__load:8 with $vars) probe_perf:map__load_3 (on map__load:8 with $vars) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe_perf:map__load_3 -aR sleep 1 Changes from previous version: - Add examples in the patch description. - Use .text section start address and dwarf symbol address for calculating the offset of given symbol, instead of searching the symbol in symtab again.

2013-11-14perf probe: Add '--demangle'/'--no-demangle'Azat Khuzhin
You can't pass demangled name into "perf probe", because of special chars: ./perf probe -f -x /tmp/a.out 'foo(int)' Semantic error :There is non-digit char in line number. And you can't even pass without demangling (because it search symbol in DSO with demangle=true): ./perf probe -f -x /tmp/a.out _Z3fooi no symbols found in /tmp/a.out, maybe install a debug package? However: nm /tmp/a.out | grep foo 000000000040056d T _Z3fooi After this patch, using the next command: ./perf probe -f --no-demangle -x /tmp/a.out _Z3fooi probe will be successfully added.

2013-03-15perf tools: Introduce tools/lib/lk libraryBorislav Petkov
This introduces the tools/lib/lk library, that will gradually have the routines that now are used in tools/perf/ and other tools and that can be shared. Start by carving out debugfs routines for general use.

2012-09-11perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variablesIrina Tirdea
perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking unused variables. The variable __used is defined to __attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to __attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored __unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition. If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name in its headers. The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android. This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with __maybe_unused.
