This script automates testing doorbells, scratchpads and memory windows
for an NTB device. It can be run locally, with the NTB looped
back to the same host or use SSH to remotely control the second host.

In the single host case, the script just needs to be passed two
arguments: a PCI ID for each side of the link. In the two host case
the -r option must be used to specify the remote hostname (which must
be SSH accessible and should probably have ssh-keys exchanged).

A sample run looks like this:

$ sudo ./ntb_test.sh 0000:03:00.1 0000:83:00.1 -p 29

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

New features:

- Add --sample-cpu to 'perf record', to explicitely ask for sampling
  the CPU (Jiri Olsa)

Fixes:

- Fix processing of multi byte chunks in objdump output, fixing
  disassemble processing for annotation on at least ARM64 (Jan Stancek)

- Use SyS_epoll_wait in a BPF 'perf test' entry instead of sys_epoll_wait, that
  is not present in the DWARF info in vmlinux files (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Add -wno-shadow when processing files using perl headers, fixing
  the build on Fedora Rawhide and Arch Linux (Namhyung Kim)

Infrastructure changes:

- Annotate prep work to better catch and report errors related to
  using objdump to disassemble DSOs (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Add 'alloc', 'scnprintf' and 'and' methods for bitmap processing (Jiri Olsa)

- Add nested output resorting callback in hists processing (Jiri Olsa)

<title>perf tests bpf: Use SyS_epoll_wait alias</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=c369e0a1a8fa6ca80e6c37c8735d9427b623ae62'/>
<id>c369e0a1a8fa6ca80e6c37c8735d9427b623ae62</id>
<content type='text'>
Something made the sys_epoll_wait() function alias not to be found in
the vmlinux DWARF info, being found only in /proc/kallsyms, which made
the BPF perf tests to fail:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf test BPF
  37: Test BPF filter                                          :
  37.1: Test basic BPF filtering                               : FAILED!
  37.2: Test BPF prologue generation                           : Skip
  37.3: Test BPF relocation checker                            : Skip
  [root@jouet ~]#

Using -v we can see it is failing to find DWARF info for the probed function,
sys_epoll_wait, which we can find in /proc/kallsyms but not in vmlinux with
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO:

  [root@jouet ~]# grep -w sys_epoll_wait /proc/kallsyms
  ffffffffbd295b50 T sys_epoll_wait
  [root@jouet ~]#

  [root@jouet ~]# readelf -wi /lib/modules/4.7.0+/build/vmlinux | grep -w sys_epoll_wait
  [root@jouet ~]#

If we try to use perf probe:

[root@jouet ~]# perf probe sys_epoll_wait
Failed to find debug information for address ffffffffbd295b50
Probe point 'sys_epoll_wait' not found.
  Error: Failed to add events.
[root@jouet ~]#

It all works if we use SyS_epoll_wait, that is just an alias to the probed
function:

  [root@jouet ~]# grep -i sys_epoll_wait /proc/kallsyms
  ffffffffbd295b50 T SyS_epoll_wait
  ffffffffbd295b50 T sys_epoll_wait
  [root@jouet ~]#

So use it:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf test BPF
  37: Test BPF filter                                          :
  37.1: Test basic BPF filtering                               : Ok
  37.2: Test BPF prologue generation                           : Ok
  37.3: Test BPF relocation checker                            : Ok
  [root@jouet ~]#

Further info:

  [root@jouet ~]# gcc --version
  gcc (GCC) 6.1.1 20160621 (Red Hat 6.1.1-3)
  [acme@jouet linux]$ cat /etc/fedora-release
  Fedora release 24 (Twenty Four)

Investigation as to why it fails is still underway, but it was always
going from sys_epoll_wait to SyS_epoll_wait when looking up the DWARF
info in vmlinux, and this is what is breaking now.

Switching to use SyS_epoll_wait allows this test to proceed and test the
BPF code it was designed for, so lets have this in to allow passing this
test while we fix the root cause.

Something made the sys_epoll_wait() function alias not to be found in
the vmlinux DWARF info, being found only in /proc/kallsyms, which made
the BPF perf tests to fail:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf test BPF
  37: Test BPF filter                                          :
  37.1: Test basic BPF filtering                               : FAILED!
  37.2: Test BPF prologue generation                           : Skip
  37.3: Test BPF relocation checker                            : Skip
  [root@jouet ~]#

Using -v we can see it is failing to find DWARF info for the probed function,
sys_epoll_wait, which we can find in /proc/kallsyms but not in vmlinux with
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO:

  [root@jouet ~]# grep -w sys_epoll_wait /proc/kallsyms
  ffffffffbd295b50 T sys_epoll_wait
  [root@jouet ~]#

  [root@jouet ~]# readelf -wi /lib/modules/4.7.0+/build/vmlinux | grep -w sys_epoll_wait
  [root@jouet ~]#

If we try to use perf probe:

[root@jouet ~]# perf probe sys_epoll_wait
Failed to find debug information for address ffffffffbd295b50
Probe point 'sys_epoll_wait' not found.
  Error: Failed to add events.
[root@jouet ~]#

It all works if we use SyS_epoll_wait, that is just an alias to the probed
function:

  [root@jouet ~]# grep -i sys_epoll_wait /proc/kallsyms
  ffffffffbd295b50 T SyS_epoll_wait
  ffffffffbd295b50 T sys_epoll_wait
  [root@jouet ~]#

So use it:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf test BPF
  37: Test BPF filter                                          :
  37.1: Test basic BPF filtering                               : Ok
  37.2: Test BPF prologue generation                           : Ok
  37.3: Test BPF relocation checker                            : Ok
  [root@jouet ~]#

Further info:

  [root@jouet ~]# gcc --version
  gcc (GCC) 6.1.1 20160621 (Red Hat 6.1.1-3)
  [acme@jouet linux]$ cat /etc/fedora-release
  Fedora release 24 (Twenty Four)

Investigation as to why it fails is still underway, but it was always
going from sys_epoll_wait to SyS_epoll_wait when looking up the DWARF
info in vmlinux, and this is what is breaking now.

Switching to use SyS_epoll_wait allows this test to proceed and test the
BPF code it was designed for, so lets have this in to allow passing this

<title>perf tests: objdump output can contain multi byte chunks</title>

objdump's raw insn output can vary across architectures on the number of
bytes per chunk (bpc) displayed and their endianness.

The code-reading test relied on reading objdump output as 1 bpc. Kaixu
Xia reported test failure on ARM64, where objdump displays 4 bpc:

  70c48:        f90027bf         str        xzr, [x29,#72]
  70c4c:        91224000         add        x0, x0, #0x890
  70c50:        f90023a0         str        x0, [x29,#64]

This patch adds support to read raw insn output for any bpc length.
In case of 2+ bpc it also guesses objdump's display endian.

Adding --sample-cpu option to be able to explicitly enable CPU sample
type. Currently it's only enable implicitly in case the target is cpu
related.

It will be useful for following c2c record tool.

When dealing with nested hist entries it's helpful to have a way to
resort those nested objects.

Adding optional callback call into output_resort function and following
new interface function:

  typedef int (*hists__resort_cb_t)(struct hist_entry *he);

  void hists__output_resort_cb(struct hists *hists,
                               struct ui_progress *prog,
                               hists__resort_cb_t cb);
