2015-05-01selftests/powerpc: Fix the pmu install ruleMichael Ellerman
My patch to add install support for the powerpc selftests had a typo, leading to the three tests in the pmu directory itself not being installed. Fixes: 6faeeea44b84 ("selftests: Add install support for the powerpc tests") Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2015-04-30Revert "powerpc/tm: Abort syscalls in active transactions"Michael Ellerman
This reverts commit feba40362b11341bee6d8ed58d54b896abbd9f84. Although the principle of this change is good, the implementation has a few issues. Firstly we can sometimes fail to abort a syscall because r12 may have been clobbered by C code if we went down the virtual CPU accounting path, or if syscall tracing was enabled. Secondly we have decided that it is safer to abort the syscall even earlier in the syscall entry path, so that we avoid the syscall tracing path when we are transactional. So that we have time to thoroughly test those changes we have decided to revert this for this merge window and will merge the fixed version in the next window. NB. Rather than reverting the selftest we just drop tm-syscall from TEST_PROGS so that it's not run by default.

O= option in Makefile Since commit ee0778a30153 ("tools/power: turbostat: make Makefile a bit more capable") turbostat's Makefile is using [...] BUILD_OUTPUT := $(PWD) [...] which obviously causes trouble when building "turbostat" with make -C /usr/src/linux/tools/power/x86/turbostat ARCH=x86 turbostat because GNU make does not update nor guarantee that $PWD is set. This patch changes the Makefile to use $CURDIR instead, which GNU make guarantees to set and update (i.e. when using "make -C ...") and also adds support for the O= option (see "make help" in your root of your kernel source tree for more details).

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar: "Core kernel changes: - One of the more interesting features in this cycle is the ability to attach eBPF programs (user-defined, sandboxed bytecode executed by the kernel) to kprobes. This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively. (Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might allow unprivileged use as well.) (Alexei Starovoitov) - Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock sources for event timestamps traced via perf. This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated events with external events that were measured with different clocks: - cluster wide profiling - for system wide tracing with user-space events, - JIT profiling events etc. Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al. (Peter Zijlstra) Hardware enablement kernel changes: - x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs. The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous. This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result. A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU. More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well - will probably be ready by 4.2. (Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra) - x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads. These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events. (The partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged as a cgroup extension.) (Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P Waskiewicz Jr) - x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus tooling support. To activate this feature you have to enable it via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option: perf record --call-graph lbr perf report or: perf top --call-graph lbr This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf based unwinding, but has some limitations: - It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record can not be enabled at the same time. - It is only available for user-space callchains. (Yan, Zheng) - x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and event table fixes for earlier models. (Andi Kleen) - x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds. This is a complex CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter value corruption. The mitigation code is automatically enabled and is transparent. (Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian) The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to the tooling changes outlined above: User visible changes affecting all tools: - Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa) - Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song) - Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa) - Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "Some clean ups and small fixes, but the biggest change is the addition of the TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro that can be used by tracepoints. Tracepoints have helper functions for the TP_printk() called __print_symbolic() and __print_flags() that lets a numeric number be displayed as a a human comprehensible text. What is placed in the TP_printk() is also shown in the tracepoint format file such that user space tools like perf and trace-cmd can parse the binary data and express the values too. Unfortunately, the way the TRACE_EVENT() macro works, anything placed in the TP_printk() will be shown pretty much exactly as is. The problem arises when enums are used. That's because unlike macros, enums will not be changed into their values by the C pre-processor. Thus, the enum string is exported to the format file, and this makes it useless for user space tools. The TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() solves this by converting the enum strings in the TP_printk() format into their number, and that is what is shown to user space. For example, the tracepoint tlb_flush currently has this in its format file: __print_symbolic(REC->reason, { TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" }, { TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" }, { TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" }, { TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" }) After adding: TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH); TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN); TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN); TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN); Its format file will contain this: __print_symbolic(REC->reason, { 0, "flush on task switch" }, { 1, "remote shootdown" }, { 2, "local shootdown" }, { 3, "local mm shootdown" })" * tag 'trace-v4.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (27 commits) tracing: Add enum_map file to show enums that have been mapped writeback: Export enums used by tracepoint to user space v4l: Export enums used by tracepoints to user space SUNRPC: Export enums in tracepoints to user space mm: tracing: Export enums in tracepoints to user space irq/tracing: Export enums in tracepoints to user space f2fs: Export the enums in the tracepoints to userspace net/9p/tracing: Export enums in tracepoints to userspace x86/tlb/trace: Export enums in used by tlb_flush tracepoint tracing/samples: Update the trace-event-sample.h with TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() tracing: Allow for modules to convert their enums to values tracing: Add TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro to map enums to their values tracing: Update trace-event-sample with TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR documentation tracing: Give system name a pointer brcmsmac: Move each system tracepoints to their own header iwlwifi: Move each system tracepoints to their own header mac80211: Move message tracepoints to their own header tracing: Add TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR to xhci-hcd tracing: Add TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR to kvm-s390 tracing: Add TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR to intel-sst ...

2015-04-13perf probe: Fix segfault when probe with lazy_line to fileHe Kuang
The first argument passed to find_probe_point_lazy() should be CU die, which will be passed to die_walk_lines() when lazy_line matches.

2015-04-13perf kmem: Analyze page allocator events alsoNamhyung Kim
The perf kmem command records and analyze kernel memory allocation only for SLAB objects. This patch implement a simple page allocator analyzer using kmem:mm_page_alloc and kmem:mm_page_free events. It adds two new options of --slab and --page. The --slab option is for analyzing SLAB allocator and that's what perf kmem currently does. The new --page option enables page allocator events and analyze kernel memory usage in page unit. Currently, 'stat --alloc' subcommand is implemented only. If none of these --slab nor --page is specified, --slab is implied.

In the result, this example sets up the probes on icmp_rcv in kernel, on main and set_target in perf, and on pcspkr_event in pcspker.ko driver. ----- # perf probe -a icmp_rcv -x ./perf -a main -a set_target \ -m /lib/modules/4.0.0-rc5+/kernel/drivers/input/misc/pcspkr.ko \ -a pcspkr_event Added new event: probe:icmp_rcv (on icmp_rcv) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:icmp_rcv -aR sleep 1 Added new event: probe_perf:main (on main in /home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe_perf:main -aR sleep 1 Added new event: probe_perf:set_target (on set_target in /home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe_perf:set_target -aR sleep 1 Added new event: probe:pcspkr_event (on pcspkr_event in pcspkr) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:pcspkr_event -aR sleep 1 ----- Reported-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150401102539.17137.46454.stgit@localhost.localdomain Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2015-04-10perf buildid-list: Fix segfault when show DSOs with hitsHe Kuang
commit: f3b623b8490a ("perf tools: Reference count struct thread") appends every thread->node to dead_threads in machine__remove_thread() and list_del_init() this node in thread__put(). perf_event__exit_del_thread() releases thread wihout using machine__remove_thread(), and causes a NULL pointer crash when list_del_init(&thread->node) is called. Fix this by using machine_remove_thread() instead of using thread__put() directly. This problem can be reproduced as following: $ perf record ls $ perf buildid-list --with-hits [ 3874.195070] perf[1018]: segfault at 0 ip 00000000004b0b15 sp 00007ffc35b44780 error 6 in perf[400000+166000] Segmentation fault After this patch: $ perf record ls $ perf buildid-list --with-hits bc23e7c3281e542650ba4324421d6acf78f4c23e /proc/kcore 643324cb0e969f30c56d660f167f84a150845511 [vdso] 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 /bin/busybox ...

2015-04-10perf tools: Fix cross-endian analysisDavid Ahern
Trying to analyze a big endian data file on little endian system fails with the error: 0xa9b40 [0x70]: failed to process type: 9 The problem is that header parsing is not done correctly because the file attributes are not swapped. Make it so. With this patch able to analyze a sparc64 data file on x86_64.

2015-04-10perf tools: Fix synthesizing fork_event.ppid for non-main threadDavid Ahern
Commit ca6c41c59b9 sets the ppid based on what is read from the /proc/pid/status file when synthesizing fork events. This is correct thing to do for new processes but not threads of a process. Fix ppid for threads to be the main thread when synthesizing fork events (ie., assume main thread spawned all sub-threads in a process).

2015-04-08perf report: Don't call map__kmap if map is NULL.Wang Nan
report__warn_kptr_restrict() calls map__kmap(kernel_map) before checking kernel_map againest NULL. Which is dangerous, since map__kmap() will return a invalid and not NULL address. It will trigger a warning message in map__kmap() after the patch "perf: kmaps: enforce usage of kmaps to protect futher bugs." was applied. This patch fixes it by adding the missing checking.
