a69b09e234 perf evlist: Simplify propagate_maps() logic
If evsel->cpus is to be reassigned then the current value must be "put",
which works even if it is NULL.  Simplify the current logic by moving
the "put" next to the assignment.

bd315aab8a perf top: Fix segfault pressing -> with no hist entries
'perf top' segfaults with following operation:

 # perf top -e page-faults -p 11400 # 11400 never generates page-fault

Then on the resulting empty interface, press right key:

  # ./perf top -e page-faults -p 11400
  perf: Segmentation fault
  -------- backtrace --------
  ./perf[0x535428]
  /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x3545f)[0x7f0dd360745f]
  ./perf[0x531d46]
  ./perf(perf_evlist__tui_browse_hists+0x96)[0x5340d6]

  /lib64/libc.so.6(clone+0x6c)[0x7f0dd36b90dc]

The bug resides in perf_evsel__hists_browse() that, in the above
circumstance browser->selection can be NULL, but code after
skip_annotation doesn't consider it.

This patch fix it by checking browser->selection before fetching
browser->selection->map.

caa470475d perf header: Fixup reading of HEADER_NRCPUS feature
The original patch introducing this header wrote the number of CPUs available
and online in one order and then swapped those values when reading, fix it.

Before:

  # perf record usleep 1
  # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus \(online\|avail\)'
  # nrcpus online : 4
  # nrcpus avail : 4
  # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
  # perf record usleep 1
  # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus \(online\|avail\)'
  # nrcpus online : 4
  # nrcpus avail : 3
  # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
  # perf record usleep 1
  # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus \(online\|avail\)'
  # nrcpus online : 4
  # nrcpus avail : 2

After the fix, bringing back the CPUs online:

  # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus \(online\|avail\)'
  # nrcpus online : 2
  # nrcpus avail : 4
  # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
  # perf record usleep 1
  # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus \(online\|avail\)'
  # nrcpus online : 3
  # nrcpus avail : 4
  # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
  # perf record usleep 1
  # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus \(online\|avail\)'
  # nrcpus online : 4
  # nrcpus avail : 4

53ff6bc37b perf tools: Fix use of wrong event when processing exit events
In a couple of cases the 'comm' member of 'union event' has been used
instead of the correct member ('fork') when processing exit events.

In the cases where it has been used incorrectly, only the 'pid' and
'tid' are affected.  The 'pid' value would be correct anyway because it
is in the same position in 'comm' and 'fork' events, but the 'tid' would
have been incorrectly assigned from 'ppid'.

However, for exit events, the kernel puts the current task in the 'ppid'
and 'ttid' which is the same as the exiting task.  That is 'ppid' ==
'pid' and if the task is not multi-threaded, 'pid' == 'tid' i.e. the
data goes wrong only when tracing multi-threaded programs.

It is hard to find an example of how this would produce an error in
practice.  There are 3 occurences of the fix:

1. perf script is only affected if !sample_id_all which only happens on
  old kernels.

2. intel_pt is only affected when decoding without timestamps
   and would probably still decode correctly - the exit event is
   only used to flush out data which anyway gets flushed at the
   end of the session

3. intel_bts also uses the exit event to flush data which
   would probably not cause errors as it would get flushed at
   the end of the session instead

af4aeadd8c perf tools: Fix link time error with sample_reg_masks on non x86
This patch makes perf compile on non x86 platforms by defining a weak
symbol for sample_reg_masks[] in util/perf_regs.c.

The patch also moves the REG() and REG_END() macros into the
util/per_regs.h header file. The macros are renamed to
SMPL_REG/SMPL_REG_END to avoid clashes with other header files.

There is a problem in the dwarf-regs.c files for sh, sparc and x86 where
it is possible to make an out-of-bounds array access when searching for

This patch fixes it by replacing '<=' to '<', so when register (number

bcc84ec65a perf record: Add ability to name registers to record
This patch modifies the -I/--int-regs option to enablepassing the name
of the registers to sample on interrupt. Registers can be specified by
their symbolic names. For instance on x86, --intr-regs=ax,si.

The motivation is to reduce the size of the perf.data file and the
overhead of sampling by only collecting the registers useful to a
specific analysis. For instance, for value profiling, sampling only the
registers used to passed arguements to functions.

With no parameter, the --intr-regs still records all possible registers
based on the architecture.

To name registers, it is necessary to use the long form of the option,
i.e., --intr-regs:

  $ perf record --intr-regs=si,di,r8,r9 .....

To record any possible registers:

  $ perf record -I .....
  $ perf report --intr-regs ...

To display the register, one can use perf report -D

To list the available registers:

  $ perf record --intr-regs=\?
  available registers: AX BX CX DX SI DI BP SP IP FLAGS CS SS R8 R9 R10 R11 R12 R13 R14 R15

acf860ae7c bpf tools: New API to get name from a BPF object
Before this patch there's no way to connect a loaded bpf object
to its source file. However, during applying perf's '--filter' to BPF
object, without this connection makes things harder, because perf loads
all programs together, but '--filter' setting is for each object.

The API of bpf_object__open_buffer() is changed to allow passing a name.
Fortunately, at this time there's only one user of it (perf test LLVM),
so we change it together.

There's no need for find_tracing_dir, because perf already searches for
debugfs/tracefs mount on start and populate tracing_events_path.

Adding tracing_path to carry tracing dir string to be used in

84e5d89a77 perf scripts python: Add new compaction-times script
This patch creates a new script (compaction-times) to report time
spent in mm compaction. It is possible to report times in nanoseconds
(default) or microseconds (-u).

The option -p will break down results by process id, -pv will further
decompose by each compaction entry/exit.

For each compaction entry/exit what is reported is controlled by the
options:

  -t   report only timing
  -m   report migration stats
  -ms  report migration scanner stats
  -fs  report free scanner stats

The default is to report all.

Entries may be further filtered by pid, pid-range or comm (regex).

The script is useful when analysing workloads that compact memory. The
most common example will be THP allocations on systems with a lot of
uptime that has fragmented memory.

This is an example of using the script to analyse a thpscale from
mmtests which deliberately fragments memory and allocates THP in 4
separate threads

601083cffb perf stat: Get correct cpu id for print_aggr
print_aggr() fails to print per-core/per-socket statistics after commit
582ec0829b ("perf stat: Fix per-socket output bug for uncore events")
if events have differnt cpus. Because in print_aggr(), aggr_get_id needs
index (not cpu id) to find core/pkg id. Also, evsel cpu maps should be
used to get aggregated id.

Here is an example:

Counting events cycles,uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/. (Uncore event has
cpumask 0,18)

  $ perf stat -e cycles,uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/ -C0,18 --per-core sleep 2

Without this patch, it failes to get CPU 18 result.

   Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0,18':

  S0-C0           1            7526851      cycles
  S0-C0           1               1.05 MiB  uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/
  S1-C0           0      <not counted>      cycles
  S1-C0           0      <not counted> MiB  uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/

With this patch, it can get both CPU0 and CPU18 result.

   Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0,18':

  S0-C0           1            6327768      cycles

da15bd9df4 perf probe: Support probing at absolute address
It should be useful to allow 'perf probe' probe at absolute offset of a
target. For example, when (u)probing at a instruction of a shared object
in a embedded system where debuginfo is not avaliable but we know the
offset of that instruction by manually digging.

This patch enables following perf probe command syntax:

  # perf probe 0xffffffff811e6615

And

  # perf probe /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so 0xeb860

In the above example, we don't need a anchor symbol, so it is possible
to compute absolute addresses using other methods and then use 'perf
probe' to create the probing points.

v1 -> v2:
  Drop the leading '+' in cmdline;
  Allow uprobing at offset 0x0;
  Improve 'perf probe -l' result when uprobe at area without debuginfo.

v2 -> v3:
  Split bugfix to a separated patch.

Test result:

  # perf probe 0xffffffff8119d175 %ax
  # perf probe sys_write %ax
  # perf probe /lib64/libc-2.18.so 0x0 %ax

6c6e024f0a perf probe: Fix error reported when offset without function
This patch fixes a bug that, when offset is provided but function is
lost, parse_perf_probe_point() will give a "" string as function name,
so the checking code at the end of parse_perf_probe_point() become
useless.  For example:

  # perf probe +0x1234
  Failed to find symbol  in kernel
    Error: Failed to add events.

After this patch:

  # perf probe +0x1234
  Semantic error :Offset requires an entry function.
    Error: Command Parse Error.

be07afe92a perf probe: Fix list result when address is zero
When manually added uprobe point with zero address, 'perf probe -l'
reports error. For example:

  # echo p:probe_libc/abs_0 /path/to/lib.bin:0x0 arg1=%ax > \
           /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events

  # perf probe -l
  Error: Failed to show event list.

Probing at 0x0 is possible and useful when lib.bin is not a normal
shared object but is manually mapped. However, in this case kernel
report:

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
  p:probe_libc/abs_0 /path/to/lib.bin:0x          (null) arg1=%ax

This patch supports the above kernel output.

614e2fdbd7 perf probe: Fix list result when symbol can't be found
'perf probe -l' reports error if it is unable find symbol through
address. Here is an example.

  # echo 'p:probe_libc/abs_5 /lib64/libc.so.6:0x5' >
          /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
   p:probe_libc/abs_5 /lib64/libc.so.6:0x0000000000000005
  # perf probe -l
    Error: Failed to show event list

Also, this situation triggers a logical inconsistency in
convert_to_perf_probe_point() that, it returns ENOMEM but actually it
never try strdup().

This patch removes !tp->module && !is_kprobe condition, so it always
uses address to build function name if symbol not found.

Test result:

  # perf probe -l
    probe_libc:abs_5     (on 0x5 in /lib64/libc.so.6)

0de802abd1 perf tools: Add Intel PT support for using CYC packets
CYC packets are a new Intel PT feature.

CYC packets provide even finer grain timestamp information than MTC and
TSC packets.  A CYC packet contains the number of CPU cycles since the
last CYC packet. Unlike MTC and TSC packets, CYC packets are only sent
when another packet is also sent.

Support for this feature is indicated by:

/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/psb_cyc

which contains "1" if the feature is supported and "0" otherwise.

CYC packets can be requested using a PMU config term e.g. perf record -e
intel_pt/cyc/u sleep 1

The frequency of CYC packets can also be specified.  e.g. perf record -e
intel_pt/cyc,cyc_thresh=2/u sleep 1

CYC packets are not requested by default.

Valid cyc_thresh values are given by:

/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/cycle_thresholds

which contains a hexadecimal value, the bits of which represent valid
values e.g. bit 2 set means value 2 is valid.

The value represents the minimum number of CPU cycles that must have
passed before a CYC packet can be sent.  The number of CPU cycles is:

    2 ^ (value - 1)

e.g. value 4 means 8 CPU cycles must pass before a CYC packet can be
sent.  Note a CYC packet is still only sent when another packet is sent,
not at, e.g. every 8 CPU cycles.

If an invalid value is entered, the error message will give a list of
valid values e.g.

    $ perf record -e intel_pt/cyc,cyc_thresh=15/u uname
    Invalid cyc_thresh for intel_pt. Valid values are: 0-12

tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt is updated in a later patch as
there are a number of new features being added.

This patch just adds decoder support.  The CPU frequency can be related
to TSC using the Maximum Non-Turbo Ratio in combination with the CBR
(core-to-bus ratio) packet.  However more accuracy is achieved by simply
interpolating the number of cycles between other timing packets like MTC
or TSC.  This patch takes the latter approach.

Support for a default value and validation of values is provided by a
later patch. Also documentation is updated in a separate patch.

For details refer to the June 2015 or later Intel 64 and IA-32
Architectures SDM Chapter 36 Intel Processor Trace.

b45fc0bfaf perf tools: Add Intel PT support for using MTC packets
MTC packets are a new Intel PT feature.

MTC packets provide finer grain timestamp information than TSC packets.

Support for this feature is indicated by:

  /sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/mtc

which contains "1" if the feature is supported and "0" otherwise.

MTC packets can be requested using a PMU config term e.g. perf record -e
intel_pt/mtc/u sleep 1

The frequency of MTC packets can also be specified.  e.g. perf record -e
intel_pt/mtc,mtc_period=2/u sleep 1

The default value is 3 or the nearest lower value that is supported.  0
is always supported.

Valid values are given by:

/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/mtc_periods

which contains a hexadecimal value, the bits of which represent valid
values e.g. bit 2 set means value 2 is valid.

The value is converted to the MTC frequency as:

	CTC-frequency / (2 ^ value)

e.g. value 3 means one eighth of CTC-frequency

Where CTC is the hardware crystal clock, the frequency of which can be
related to TSC via values provided in cpuid leaf 0x15.

If an invalid value is entered, the error message will give a list of
valid values e.g.

	$ perf record -e intel_pt/mtc_period=15/u uname
	Invalid mtc_period for intel_pt. Valid values are: 0,3,6,9

tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt is updated in a later patch as
there are a number of new features being added.

Architectures SDM Chapter 36 Intel Processor Trace.

3d49807870 perf tools: Add new Intel PT packet definitions
New features have been added to Intel PT which include a number of new
packet definitions.

This patch adds packet definitions for new packets: TMA, MTC, CYC, VMCS,
TRACESTOP and MNT.  Also another bit in PIP is defined.

This patch only adds support for the definitions. Later patches add
support for decoding TMA, MTC, CYC and TRACESTOP which is where those
packets are explained.

VMCS and the newly defined bit in PIP are used with virtualization which
is not supported yet.  MNT is a maintenance packet which the decoder
should ignore.

bc9b6bf07c perf tools: Add Intel PT support for PSB periods
The PSB packet is a synchronization packet that provides a starting
point for decoding or recovery from errors.

This patch adds support for a new Intel PT feature that allows the
frequency of PSB packets to be specified.

Support for this feature is indicated by
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/psb_cyc which contains "1"
if the feature is supported and "0" otherwise.

The PSB period can be specified as a PMU config term e.g. perf record -e
intel_pt/psb_period=2/u sleep 1

The default value is 3 or the nearest lower value that is supported.  0
is always supported.

Valid values are given by:

/sys/bus/event_source/devices/intel_pt/caps/psb_periods

which contains a hexadecimal value, the bits of which represent valid
values e.g. bit 2 set means value 2 is valid.

The value is converted to the approximate number of trace bytes between
PSB packets as:

	2 ^ (value + 11)

e.g. value 3 means 16KiB bytes between PSBs

If an invalid value is entered, the error message will give a list of
valid values e.g.

	$ perf record -e intel_pt/psb_period=15/u uname
	Invalid psb_period for intel_pt. Valid values are: 0-5

tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt is updated in a later patch as
there are a number of new features being added.

For more information about PSB periods refer to the Intel 64 and IA-32

1c0bd0e891 perf probe: Try to use symbol table if searching debug info failed
A problem can occur in a statically linked perf when vmlinux can be found:

 # perf probe --add sys_epoll_pwait

 symbol:sys_epoll_pwait file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)

 Failed to get call frame on 0xffffffff8122bd40
 An error occurred in debuginfo analysis (-2).
   Error: Failed to add events. Reason: No such file or directory (Code: -2)

The reason is caused by libdw that, if libdw is statically linked, it
can't load libebl_{arch}.so reliable.

In this case it is still possible to get the address from
/proc/kalksyms.  However, perf tries that only when libdw returns
-EBADF.

This patch gives it another chance to utilize symbol table, even if
libdw returns an error code other than -EBADF.

After applying this patch:

 # perf probe -nv --add sys_epoll_pwait

   probe:sys_epoll_pwait (on sys_epoll_pwait)

 You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

 	perf record -e probe:sys_epoll_pwait -aR sleep 1

Although libdw returns an error (Failed to get call frame), perf tries
symbol table and finally gets correct address.
