perf unwind-libunwind: Make libunwind register reading cross platform

2026-05-15T19:18:36+00:00

Move the libunwind register to perf register mapping functions in
arch/../util/unwind-libunwind.c into a new libunwind-arch
directory. Rename the functions to
__get_perf_regnum_for_unw_regnum_. Add untested ppc32 and s390
functions. Add a get_perf_regnum_for_unw_regnum function that takes an
ELF machine as well as a register number and chooses the appropriate
architecture implementation.

Split the x86 and powerpc 32 and 64-bit implementations apart so that
a single libunwind-.h header is included.

Move the e_machine into the unwind_info struct to make it easier to
pass.

perf loongarch: Fix build failure with CONFIG_LIBDW_DWARF_UNWIND

2026-04-14T07:36:53+00:00

Building perf for LoongArch fails when CONFIG_LIBDW_DWARF_UNWIND is
enabled because unwind-libdw.o is still referenced in
arch/loongarch/util/Build.

perf regs: Remove weak attributive archxxx_reg_mask() functions

2026-02-06T15:16:09+00:00

Currently, some architecture-specific perf-regs functions, such as
arch__intr_reg_mask() and arch__user_reg_mask(), are defined with the
__weak attribute.

This approach ensures that only functions matching the architecture of
the build/run host are compiled and executed, reducing build time and
binary size.

However, this __weak attribute restricts these functions to be called
only on the same architecture, preventing cross-architecture
functionality.

For example, a perf.data file captured on x86 cannot be parsed on an ARM
platform.

To address this limitation, this patch removes the __weak attribute from
these perf-regs functions.

The architecture-specific code is moved from the arch/ directory to the
util/perf-regs-arch/ directory.

The appropriate architectural functions are then called based on the
EM_HOST.

No functional changes are intended.

perf arch: Update arch headers to use relative UAPI paths

2026-02-06T15:15:48+00:00

The architectural specific headers perf_regs.h currently rely on the
host architecture's 'asm/perf_regs.h'.

This can lead to compilation inconsistencies or failures when including
and building perf for a target architecture that differs from the host's
architecture.

Explicitly point to the UAPI headers within the tools source tree using
relative paths.

This ensures that perf is always built against the intended
architecture.

No functional changes are intended.

perf kvm stat: Remove use of the arch directory

2026-02-03T21:01:27+00:00

`perf kvm stat` supports record and report options.

By using the arch directory a report for a different machine type cannot
be supported.

Move the kvm-stat code out of the arch directory and into
util/kvm-stat-arch following the pattern of perf-regs and dwarf-regs.

Avoid duplicate symbols by renaming functions to have the architecture
name within them.

For global variables, wrap them in an architecture specific function.
Selecting the architecture to use with `perf kvm stat` is selected by
EM_HOST, ie no different than before the change.

Later the ELF machine can be determined from the session or a header
feature (ie EM_HOST at the time of the record).

The build and #define HAVE_KVM_STAT_SUPPORT is now redundant so remove
across Makefiles and in the build.

Opportunistically constify architectural structs and arrays.

perf regs: Refactor use of arch__sample_reg_masks() to perf_reg_name()

2026-01-23T19:58:39+00:00

arch__sample_reg_masks isn't supported on ARM(32), csky, loongarch,
MIPS, RISC-V and s390.

The table returned by the function just has the name of a register
paired with the corresponding sample_regs_user mask value.

For a given perf register we can compute the name with perf_reg_name and
the mask is just 1 left-shifted by the perf register number.

Change __parse_regs to use this method for finding registers rather than
arch__sample_reg_masks, thereby adding __parse_regs support for ARM(32),
csky, loongarch, MIPS, RISC-V and s390.

As arch__sample_reg_masks is then unused, remove the now unneeded
declarations.

perf disasm: Don't include C files from the arch directory

2026-01-23T19:58:38+00:00

Move the arch instructions.c files into appropriately named files in
annotate-arch in the util directory.

Don't #include to compile the code, switch to building the files and fix
up the #includes accordingly.

Move powerpc specific disasm code out of disasm.c and into
annotate-powerpc.c.

Declarations and static removed as appropriate for the code to compile
as separate compilation units.

The e_machine and e_flags set up is moved to the disasm.c architectures
array so that later patches can sort by them.

perf annotate: Fix args leak of map_symbol

2026-01-23T19:58:38+00:00

map_symbol__exit() needs calling on an annotate_args.ms, however, rather
than introduce proper reference count handling to symbol__annotate()
just switch to passing the map_symbol pointer parameter around, making
the puts the caller's responsibility.

Fix a number of cases to ensure the map in a map_symbol has a
reference count increment and add the then necessary map_symbol_exits.
