We have defined YY_USER_ACTION to keep trace of the column location
during events parsing, but we need to clean it up when we call REJECT.
When REJECT is called, the lexer shrinks the text and re-runs the
matching, so we need to address it in resuming the previous location
value to keep it correct for error display, like:

Introduce a new option to dump trace output to files named by the
monitored events and update perf-script documentation accordingly.
Shown below is output of perf script command with the newly introduced
option.
$ perf record -e cycles -e cs -ag -- sleep 1
$ perf script --per-event-dump
$ ls
perf.data.cycles.dump perf.data.cs.dump
Without per-event-dump support, drawing flamegraphs for different events
would require post processing to separate events. You can monitor only
one event at a time if you want to get flamegraphs for different events.
Using this option, you can get the trace output files named by the
monitored events, and could draw flamegraphs according to the event's
name.

Perf top is often crashing at very random locations on powerpc. After
investigating, I found the crash only happens when sample is of zero
length symbol. Powerpc kernel has many such symbols which does not
contain length details in vmlinux binary and thus start and end
addresses of such symbols are same.
Structure
struct sym_hist {
u64 nr_samples;
u64 period;
struct sym_hist_entry addr[0];
};
has last member 'addr[]' of size zero. 'addr[]' is an array of addresses
that belongs to one symbol (function). If function consist of 100
instructions, 'addr' points to an array of 100 'struct sym_hist_entry'
elements. For zero length symbol, it points to the *empty* array, i.e.
no members in the array and thus offset 0 is also invalid for such
array.
static int __symbol__inc_addr_samples(...)
{
...
offset = addr - sym->start;
h = annotation__histogram(notes, evidx);
h->nr_samples++;
h->addr[offset].nr_samples++;
h->period += sample->period;
h->addr[offset].period += sample->period;
...
}
Here, when 'addr' is same as 'sym->start', 'offset' becomes 0, which is
valid for normal symbols but *invalid* for zero length symbols and thus
updating h->addr[offset] causes memory corruption.
Fix this by adding one dummy element for zero length symbols.

On one hand this ensures that the memory is properly freed when the DSO
gets freed. On the other hand this significantly speeds up the
processing of the callchain nodes when lots of srclines are requested.
For one of my data files e.g.:

Note that the difference is only this large when `--inline` is not
passed. In such situations, we would use the inliner cache and thus do
not run this code path that often.
I think that this cache should actually be used in other places, too.
When looking at the valgrind leak report for perf report, we see tons of
srclines being leaked, most notably from calls to
hist_entry__get_srcline. The problem is that get_srcline has many
different formatting options (show_sym, show_addr, potentially even
unwind_inlines when calling __get_srcline directly). As such, the
srcline cannot easily be cached for all calls, or we'd have to add
caches for all formatting combinations (6 so far). An alternative would
be to remove the formatting options and handle that on a different level
- i.e. print the sym/addr on demand wherever we actually output
something. And the unwind_inlines could be moved into a separate
function that does not return the srcline.

When no inlined frames could be found for a given address, we did not
store this information anywhere. That means we potentially do the costly
inliner lookup repeatedly for cases where we know it can never succeed.
This patch makes dso__parse_addr_inlines always return a valid
inline_node. It will be empty when no inliners are found. This enables
us to cache the empty list in the DSO, thereby improving the performance
when many addresses fail to find the inliners.
For my trivial example, the performance impact is already quite
significant:

Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.
However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:
----
// Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and
// WRITE_ONCE()
// $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch

Complex abs does not call the linear congruential engine! It

The original patch that introduced inline frame output in the various
browsers used this suffix already. The new centralized approach that
uses fake symbols for inlined frames was missing this approach so far.
Instead of changing the symbol name itself, we only print the suffix
where needed. This allows us to efficiently lookup the symbol for a
given name without first having to append the suffix before the lookup.

When a callchain entry has no srcline available, we ended up comparing
the instruction pointer. I consider this to be not too useful. Rather, I
think we should group the entries by function name, which this patch
adds. For people who want to split the data on the IP boundary, using
`-g address` is the correct choice.

The inline_node structs are maintained by the new dso->inlines tree.
This in turn keeps ownership of the fake symbols and srcline string
representing an inline frame.
This tree is sorted by address to allow quick lookups. All other entries
of the symbol beside the function name are unused for inline frames. The
advantage of this approach is that all existing users of the callchain
API can now transparently display inlined frames without having to patch
their code.

This is a preparation for the creation of real callchain entries for
inlined frames. The rest of the perf code uses the srcline string. As
such, using that also for the srcline API allows us to simplify some of
the upcoming code. Most notably, it will allow us to cache the srcline
for a given inline node and reuse it for different callchain entries.

This is a requirement to create real callchain entries for inlined
frames.
Since the list of inlines usually contains the target symbol too, i.e.
the location where the frames get inlined to, we alias that symbol and
reuse it as-is is. This ensures that other dependent functionality keeps
working, most notably annotation of the target frames.
For all other entries in the inline_list, a fake symbol is created.
These are marked by new 'inlined' member which is set to true. Only
those symbols are managed by the inline_list and get freed when the
inline_list is deleted from within inline_node__delete.

This is mostly a preparation to enable the creation of full callchain
nodes for inline frames. Such frames will reference the IP of the
non-inlined frame, but hold the symbol and srcline for an inlined
location. As such, we won't be able to query the srcline on-demand based
on the IP alone. Instead, we will leverage the functionality provided by
this patch here, and store the srcline for the inlined nodes in the new
srcline member of callchain_cursor_node.
Note that this patch on its own leaks the srcline, as there is no
free_callchain_cursor_node or similar. A future patch will add caching
of the srcline and handle deletion properly.

I.e. when we create a detached tarball to build perf outside outside the
enveloping kernel sources (from a kernel tarball or a checked out
linux.git directory) we by definition can't check for differences among
the tools/{include,arch}, etc files we originally copied from the

In current xyarray code, xyarray__max_x() returns max_y, and xyarray__max_y()
returns max_x.
It's confusing and for code logic it looks not correct.
Error happens when closing evsel fd. Let's see this scenario:
1. Allocate an fd (pseudo-code)
perf_evsel__alloc_fd(struct perf_evsel *evsel, int ncpus, int nthreads)
{
evsel->fd = xyarray__new(ncpus, nthreads, sizeof(int));
}
xyarray__new(int xlen, int ylen, size_t entry_size)
{
size_t row_size = ylen * entry_size;
struct xyarray *xy = zalloc(sizeof(*xy) + xlen * row_size);
xy->entry_size = entry_size;
xy->row_size = row_size;
xy->entries = xlen * ylen;
xy->max_x = xlen;
xy->max_y = ylen;
......
}
So max_x is ncpus, max_y is nthreads and row_size = nthreads * 4.
2. Use perf syscall and get the fd
int perf_evsel__open(struct perf_evsel *evsel, struct cpu_map *cpus,
struct thread_map *threads)
{
for (cpu = 0; cpu < cpus->nr; cpu++) {
for (thread = 0; thread < nthreads; thread++) {
int fd, group_fd;
fd = sys_perf_event_open(&evsel->attr, pid, cpus->map[cpu],
group_fd, flags);
FD(evsel, cpu, thread) = fd;
}
}
static inline void *xyarray__entry(struct xyarray *xy, int x, int y)
{
return &xy->contents[x * xy->row_size + y * xy->entry_size];
}
These codes don't have issues. The issue happens in the closing of fd.
3. Close fd.
void perf_evsel__close_fd(struct perf_evsel *evsel)
{
int cpu, thread;
for (cpu = 0; cpu < xyarray__max_x(evsel->fd); cpu++)
for (thread = 0; thread < xyarray__max_y(evsel->fd); ++thread) {
close(FD(evsel, cpu, thread));
FD(evsel, cpu, thread) = -1;
}
}
Since xyarray__max_x() returns max_y (nthreads) and xyarry__max_y()
returns max_x (ncpus), so above code is actually to be:
for (cpu = 0; cpu < nthreads; cpu++)
for (thread = 0; thread < ncpus; ++thread) {
close(FD(evsel, cpu, thread));
FD(evsel, cpu, thread) = -1;
}
It's not correct!
This change is introduced by "475fb533fb7d" ("perf evsel: Fix buffer overflow
while freeing events")
This fix is to let xyarray__max_x() return max_x (ncpus) and
let xyarry__max_y() return max_y (nthreads)

samples, i.e. when we use either -H or --with-hits, that we will process
all the PERF_RECORD_ events, and since tools/perf/builtin-buildid-list.c
neither explicitely set a perf_tool.namespaces() callback nor the
default stub was set that we end up, when processing a
PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACE record, causing a SEGFAULT:
# perf buildid-list -H
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

'perf record' had a '-l' option that meant "scale counter values" a very

remove it. I found this problem in the below case.

Du Changbin reported crash [1] when calling perf_hpp__reset_output_field()
after unregistering field via perf_hpp__column_unregister().
This ends up in calling following list_del* sequence on
the same format:
perf_hpp__column_unregister:
list_del(&format->list);
perf_hpp__reset_output_field:
list_del_init(&fmt->list);
where the later list_del_init might touch already freed formats.
Fixing this by replacing list_del() with list_del_init() in
perf_hpp__column_unregister().

Currently, perf record is broken on arm/arm64 systems when the PMU is
specified explicitly as part of the event, e.g.
$ ./perf record -e armv8_cortex_a53/cpu_cycles/u true
In such cases, perf record fails to open events unless
perf_event_paranoid is set to -1, even if the PMU in question supports
mode exclusion. Further, even when perf_event_paranoid is toggled, no
samples are recorded.
This is an unintended side effect of commit:
e3ba76deef ("perf tools: Force uncore events to system wide monitoring)
... which assumes that if a PMU has an associated cpu_map, it is an
uncore PMU, and forces events for such PMUs to be system-wide.
This is not true for arm/arm64 systems, which can have heterogeneous
CPUs. To account for this, multiple CPU PMUs are exposed, each with a
"cpus" field under sysfs, which the perf tool parses into a cpu_map. ARM
PMUs do not have a "cpumask" file, and only have a "cpus" file. For the
gory details as to why, see commit:
7e3fcffe95 ("perf pmu: Support alternative sysfs cpumask")
Given all of this, we can instead identify uncore PMUs by explicitly
checking for a "cpumask" file, and restore arm/arm64 PMU support back to
a working state. This patch does so, adding a new perf_pmu::is_uncore
field, and splitting the existing cpumask parsing so that it can be
reused.

Prior to commit 55b9b50811 ("perf script: Support -F brstack,dso and
brstacksym,dso"), we were printing a space before the brstack data. It
seems that this space was important. Without it, parsing is difficult.
Very sorry for the mistake.
Notice here how the "ip" and "brstack" run together:

The proc files which is sorted with alphabetical order are evenly
assigned to several synthesize threads to be processed in parallel.
For 'perf top', the threads number hard code to online CPU number. The
following patch will introduce an option to set it.
For other perf tools, the thread number is 1. Because the process
function is not ready for multithreading, e.g.
process_synthesized_event.
This patch series only support event synthesize multithreading for 'perf
top'. For other tools, it can be done separately later.
With multithread applied, the total processing time can get up to 1.56x
speedup on Knights Mill for 'perf top'.
For specific single event processing, the processing time could increase
because of the lock contention. So proc_map_timeout may need to be
increased. Otherwise some proc maps will be truncated.
Based on my test, increasing the proc_map_timeout has small impact
on the total processing time. The total processing time still get 1.49x
speedup on Knights Mill after increasing the proc_map_timeout.
The patch itself doesn't increase the proc_map_timeout.
Doesn't need to implement multithreading for per task monitoring,
perf_event__synthesize_thread_map. It doesn't have performance issue.

The reason for the wrong error reporting is the return value of the
system() library call. It is called in run_dir() file tests/attr.c and
returns the exit status, in above case 0xff00.
This value is given as parameter to the exit() function which can only
handle values 0-0xff.
The child process terminates with exit value of 0 and the parent does
not detect any error.
This patch corrects the error reporting and prints the correct test
result.

Commit d78ada4a76 ("perf tests attr: Do not store failed events") does
not create an event file in the /tmp directory when the
perf_open_event() system call failed.
This can lead to a situation where not /tmp/event-xx-yy-zz result file
exists at all (for example on a s390x virtual machine environment) where
no CPUMF hardware is available.
The following command then fails with a python call back chain instead
of printing failure:

With --call-graph option, perf report can display call chains using
type, min percent threshold, optional print limit and order. And the
default call-graph parameter is 'graph,0.5,caller,function,percent'.
Before this patch, 'perf report --call-graph' shows incorrect debug
messages as below:
# perf report --call-graph
Invalid callchain mode: 0.5
Invalid callchain order: 0.5
Invalid callchain sort key: 0.5
Invalid callchain config key: 0.5
Invalid callchain mode: caller
Invalid callchain mode: function
Invalid callchain order: function
Invalid callchain mode: percent
Invalid callchain order: percent
Invalid callchain sort key: percent
That is because in function __parse_callchain_report_opt(),each field of
the call-graph parameter is passed to parse_callchain_{mode,order,
sort_key,value} in turn until it meets the matching value.
For example, the order field "caller" is passed to
parse_callchain_mode() firstly and obviously it doesn't match any mode
field. Therefore parse_callchain_mode() will shows the debug message
"Invalid callchain mode: caller", which could confuse users.
The patch fixes this issue by moving the warning out of the function
parse_callchain_{mode,order,sort_key,value}.

Yet another fix for probing the max attr.precise_ip setting: it is not
enough settting attr.exclude_kernel for !root users, as they _can_
profile the kernel if the kernel.perf_event_paranoid sysctl is set to
-1, so check that as well.
Testing it:
As non root:
$ sysctl kernel.perf_event_paranoid
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = 2
$ perf record sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
cycles:uppp: ..., exclude_kernel: 1, ... precise_ip: 3, ...
Now as non-root, but with kernel.perf_event_paranoid set set to the
most permissive value, -1:
$ sysctl kernel.perf_event_paranoid
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1
$ perf record sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
cycles:ppp: ..., exclude_kernel: 0, ... precise_ip: 3, ...
$
I.e. non-root, default kernel.perf_event_paranoid: :uppp modifier = not allowed to sample the kernel,
non-root, most permissible kernel.perf_event_paranoid: :ppp = allowed to sample the kernel.
In both cases, use the highest available precision: attr.precise_ip = 3.

Andi reported a performance drop in single threaded perf tools such as
'perf script' due to the growing number of locks being put in place to
allow for multithreaded tools, so wrap the POSIX threads rwlock routines
with the names used for such kinds of locks in the Linux kernel and then
allow for tools to ask for those locks to be used or not.
I.e. a tool may have a multithreaded phase and then switch to single
threaded, like the upcoming patches for the synthesizing of
PERF_RECORD_{FORK,MMAP,etc} for pre-existing processes to then switch to
single threaded mode in 'perf top'.
The init routines will not be conditional, this way starting as single
threaded to then move to multi threaded mode should be possible.

This is one more case where the way that syscall parameter values are
defined in kernel headers are easy to parse using a shell script that
will then generate the string table that gets used by the madvise
'behaviour' argument beautifier.
This way as soon as the header syncronization mechanism in perf's build
system detects a change in a copy of a kernel ABI header and that file
is syncronized, we get 'perf trace' updated automagically.
So, when we syncronize this:
Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h' differs from latest version at 'include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h'
We'll get these:
#define MADV_WIPEONFORK 18 /* Zero memory on fork, child only */
#define MADV_KEEPONFORK 19 /* Undo MADV_WIPEONFORK */

To process any events, it needs to find the thread in the machine first.
The machine maintains a rb tree to store all threads. The rb tree is
protected by a rw lock.
It is not a problem for current perf which serially processing events.
However, it will have scalability performance issue to process events in
parallel, especially on a heavy load system which have many threads.
Introduce a hashtable to divide the big rb tree into many samll rb tree
for threads. The index is thread id % hashtable size. It can reduce the
lock contention.
Committer notes:
Renamed some variables and function names to reduce semantic confusion:
'struct threads' pointers: thread -> threads
threads hastable index: tid -> hash_bucket
struct threads *machine__thread() -> machine__threads()
Cast tid to (unsigned int) to handle -1 in machine__threads() (Kan Liang)

GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8f ("Group short-lived
and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's
primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is
short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close
together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds
like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the
highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the
context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is
no good answer for those questions.
The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of
the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So
this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits.
I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag
with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from
other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to
use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just
motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning.
I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially
those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from
confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and
replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that
SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and
so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention.
I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm
allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and
only then add users with proper justification.
This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it
turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It
seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not
all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that
opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between
developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a
semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag
and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term
allocations.
