perf symbols: Robustify reading of build-id from sysfs

2017-08-07T01:59:48+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7934c98a6e04028eb34c1293bfb5a6b0ab630b66 ]

Markus reported that perf segfaults when reading /sys/kernel/notes from
a kernel linked with GNU gold, due to what looks like a gold bug, so do
some bounds checking to avoid crashing in that case.

perf probe: Fix to get correct modname from elf header

2017-08-07T01:59:47+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1f2ed153b916c95a49a1ca9d7107738664224b7f ]

Since 'perf probe' supports cross-arch probes, it is possible to analyze
different arch kernel image which has different bits-per-long.

In that case, it fails to get the module name because it uses the
MOD_NAME_OFFSET macro based on the host machine bits-per-long, instead
of the target arch bits-per-long.

This fixes above issue by changing modname-offset based on the target
archs bit width. This is ok because linux kernel uses LP64 model on
64bit arch.

E.g. without this (on x86_64, and target module is arm32):

  $ perf probe -m build-arm/fs/configfs/configfs.ko -D configfs_lookup
  p:probe/configfs_lookup :configfs_lookup+0
                          ^-Here is an empty module name.

With this fix, you can see correct module name:

  $ perf probe -m build-arm/fs/configfs/configfs.ko -D configfs_lookup
  p:probe/configfs_lookup configfs:configfs_lookup+0

perf intel-pt: Clear FUP flag on error

2017-07-27T22:07:58+00:00

commit 6a558f12dbe85437acbdec5e149ea07b5554eced upstream.

Sometimes a FUP packet is associated with a TSX transaction and a flag is
set to indicate that. Ensure that flag is cleared on any error condition
because at that point the decoder can no longer assume it is correct.

perf intel-pt: Use FUP always when scanning for an IP

2017-07-27T22:07:57+00:00

commit 622b7a47b843c78626f40c1d1aeef8483383fba2 upstream.

The decoder will try to use branch packets to find an IP to start decoding
or to recover from errors. Currently the FUP packet is used only in the
case of an overflow, however there is no reason for that to be a special
case. So just use FUP always when scanning for an IP.

perf intel-pt: Ensure never to set 'last_ip' when packet 'count' is zero

2017-07-27T22:07:57+00:00

commit f952eaceb089b691eba7c4e13686e742a8f26bf5 upstream.

Intel PT uses IP compression based on the last IP. For decoding purposes,
'last IP' is not updated when a branch target has been suppressed, which is
indicated by IPBytes == 0. IPBytes is stored in the packet 'count', so
ensure never to set 'last_ip' when packet 'count' is zero.

perf intel-pt: Fix last_ip usage

2017-07-27T22:07:57+00:00

commit ee14ac0ef6827cd6f9a572cc83dd0191ea17812c upstream.

Intel PT uses IP compression based on the last IP. For decoding
purposes, 'last IP' is considered to be reset to zero whenever there is
a synchronization packet (PSB). The decoder wasn't doing that, and was
treating the zero value to mean that there was no last IP, whereas
compression can be done against the zero value. Fix by setting last_ip
to zero when a PSB is received and keep track of have_last_ip.

commit ad7167a8cd174ba7d8c0d0ed8d8410521206d104 upstream.

A value of zero is used to indicate that there is no IP. Ensure the
value is zero when the state is INTEL_PT_STATE_NO_IP.

commit 12b7080609097753fd8198cc1daf589be3ec1cca upstream.

The return compression stack must be cleared whenever there is a PSB. Fix

perf intel-pt: Improve sample timestamp

2017-07-27T22:07:57+00:00

commit 3f04d98e972b59706bd43d6cc75efac91f8fba50 upstream.

The decoder uses its current timestamp in samples. Usually that is a
timestamp that has already passed, but in some cases it is a timestamp
for a branch that the decoder is walking towards, and consequently
hasn't reached. Improve that situation by using the pkt_state to
determine when to use the current or previous timestamp.
