2025-11-13perf libbfd: Ensure libbfd is initialized prior to useIan Rogers
Multiple threads may be creating and destroying BFD objects in situations like `perf top`. Without appropriate initialization crashes may occur during libbfd's cache management. BFD's locks require recursive mutexes, add support for these. Committer testing: This happens only when building with 'make BUILD_NONDISTRO=1' and having the binutils-devel package (or equivalent) installed, i.e. linking with binutils devel files, an opt-in perf build. Before: root@x1:~# perf top perf: Segmentation fault -------- backtrace -------- <SNIP multiple failed attempts at printing a backtrace> root@x1:~# After this patch it works as before. Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/aQt66zhfxSA80xwt@gentoo.org/ Fixes: 95931d9a594dd0b5 ("perf libbfd: Move libbfd functionality to its own file") Reported-by: Guilherme Amadio <amadio@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2025-11-13perf test: Fix lock contention testRavi Bangoria
Couple of independent fixes: 1. Wire in SIGSEGV handler that terminates the test with a failure code. 2. Use "--lock-cgroup" instead of "-g"; "-g" was proposed but never merged. See commit 4d1792d0a2564caf ("perf lock contention: Add --lock-cgroup option") 3. Call cleanup() on every normal exit so trap_cleanup() doesn't mistake it for an unexpected signal and emit a false-negative "Unexpected signal in main" message.

2025-11-13perf lock: Fix segfault due to missing kernel mapRavi Bangoria
Kernel maps are encoded in PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 samples but "perf lock report" and "perf lock contention" do not process MMAP2 samples. Because of that, machine->vmlinux_map stays NULL and any later access triggers a segmentation fault. Fix it by adding ->mmap2() callbacks.

not available This is one more remnant of the BUILD_NONDISTRO series to make building with binutils-devel opt-in due to license incompatibility.

2025-11-13perf header: Write bpf_prog (infos|btfs)_cnt to data fileThomas Falcon
With commit f0d0f978f3f5830a ("perf header: Don't write empty BPF/BTF info"), the write_bpf_( prog_info() | btf() ) functions exit without writing anything if env->bpf_prog.(infos| btfs)_cnt is zero. process_bpf_( prog_info() | btf() ), however, still expect a "count" value to exist in the data file. If btf information is empty, for example, process_bpf_btf will read garbage or some other data as the number of btf nodes in the data file. As a result, the data file will not be processed correctly. Instead, write the count to the data file and exit if it is zero.

2025-10-06perf tools: Fix arm64 libjvmti build by generating unistd_64.hVincent Minet
Since commit 22f72088ffe6 ("tools headers: Update the syscall table with the kernel sources") the arm64 syscall header is generated at build time. Later, commit bfb713ea53c7 ("perf tools: Fix arm64 build by generating unistd_64.h") added a dependency to libperf to guarantee that this header was created before building libperf or perf itself. However, libjvmti also requires this header but does not depend on libperf, leading to build failures such as: In file included from /usr/include/sys/syscall.h:24, from /usr/include/syscall.h:1, from jvmti/jvmti_agent.c:36: tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h:2:10: fatal error: asm/unistd_64.h: No such file or directory 2 | #include <asm/unistd_64.h> Fix this by ensuring that libperf is built before libjvmti, so that unistd_64.h is always available.

2025-10-06perf python: split Clang options when invoking PopenLeo Yan
When passing a list to subprocess.Popen, each element maps to one argv token. Current code bundles multiple Clang flags into a single element, something like: cmd = ['clang', '--target=x86_64-linux-gnu -fintegrated-as -Wno-cast-function-type-mismatch', 'test-hello.c'] So Clang only sees one long, invalid option instead of separate flags, as a result, the script cannot capture any log via PIPE. Fix this by using shlex.split() to separate the string so each option becomes its own argv element. The fixed list will be: cmd = ['clang', '--target=x86_64-linux-gnu', '-fintegrated-as', '-Wno-cast-function-type-mismatch', 'test-hello.c'] Fixes: 09e6f9f98370 ("perf python: Fix splitting CC into compiler and options") Signed-off-by: Leo Yan <leo.yan@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251006-perf_build_android_ndk-v3-2-4305590795b2@arm.com Cc: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@dabbelt.com> Cc: Albert Ou <aou@eecs.berkeley.edu> Cc: Alexandre Ghiti <alex@ghiti.fr> Cc: Nick Desaulniers <nick.desaulniers+lkml@gmail.com> Cc: Justin Stitt <justinstitt@google.com> Cc: Bill Wendling <morbo@google.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> Cc: James Clark <james.clark@linaro.org> Cc: linux-riscv@lists.infradead.org Cc: llvm@lists.linux.dev Cc: Paul Walmsley <paul.walmsley@sifive.com> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-perf-users@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2025-10-06perf srcline: Fallback between addr2line implementationsIan Rogers
Factor the addr2line function implementation into separate source files (addr2line.[ch]) and rename the addr2line function cmd__addr2line. In srcline replace the ifdef-ed addr2line implementations with one that first tries the llvm__addr2line implementation, then the deprecated libbfd__addr2line function and on failure uses cmd__addr2line. If HAVE_LIBLLVM_SUPPORT is enabled the llvm__addr2line will execute against the libLLVM.so it is linked against. If HAVE_LIBLLVM_DYNAMIC is enabled then libperf-llvm.so (that links against libLLVM.so) will be dlopened. If the dlopen succeeds then the behavior should match HAVE_LIBLLVM_SUPPORT. On failure cmd__addr2line is used. The dlopen is only tried once. If HAVE_LIBLLVM_DYNAMIC isn't enabled then llvm__addr2line immediately fails and cmd__addr2line is used. Clean up the dso__free_a2l logic, which is only needed in the non-LLVM version and moved to addr2line.c.

2025-10-03perf parse-events: Fix parsing of >30kb event stringsIan Rogers
Metrics may generate many particularly uncore event references. The resulting event string may then be >32kb. The parse events lex is using "%option reject" which stores backtracking state in a buffer sized at roughtly 30kb. If the event string is larger than this then a buffer overflow and typically a crash happens. The need for "%option reject" was for BPF events which were removed in commit 3d6dfae88917 ("perf parse-events: Remove BPF event support"). As "%option reject" is both a memory and performance cost let's remove it and fix the parsing case for event strings being over ~30kb. Whilst cleaning up "%option reject" make the header files accurately reflect functions used in the code and tidy up not requiring yywrap. Measuring on the "PMU JSON event tests" a modest reduction of 0.41% user time and 0.27% max resident size was observed. More importantly this change fixes parsing large metrics and event strings.

2025-10-03perf stat: Refactor retry/skip/fatal error handlingIan Rogers
For the sake of Intel topdown events commit 9eac5612da1c9102 ("perf stat: Don't skip failing group events") changed 'perf stat' error handling making it so that more errors were fatal and didn't report "<not supported>" events. The change outside of topdown events was unintentional. The notion of "fatal" error handling was introduced in commit e0e6a6ca3ac211cc ("perf stat: Factor out open error handling") and refined in commits like commit cb5ef60067c11cc8 ("perf stat: Error out unsupported group leader immediately") to be an approach for avoiding later assertion failures in the code base. This change fixes those issues and removes the notion of a fatal error on an event. If all events fail to open then a fatal error occurs with the previous fatal error message. This seems to best match the notion of supported events and allowing some errors not to stop 'perf stat', while allowing the truly fatal no event case to terminate the tool early. The evsel->errored flag is only used in the stat code but always just meaning !evsel->supported although there is a comment about it being sticky. Force all evsels to be supported in evsel__init and then clear this when evsel__open fails. When an event is tried the supported is set to true again. This simplifies the notion of whether an evsel is broken. In the get_group_fd code, fail to get a group fd when the evsel isn't supported. If the leader isn't supported then it is also expected that there is no group_fd as the leader will have been skipped. Therefore change the BUG_ON test to be on supported rather than skippable. This corrects the assertion errors that were the reason for the previous fatal error handling.
