For branch stacks or branch samples, the sample cpumode might not be
correct because it applies only to the sample 'ip' and not necessary to
'addr' or branch stack addresses. Add fallback functions that can be

Some architectures have a single address space for kernel and user
addresses, which makes it possible to determine if an address is in
kernel space or user space. Some don't, e.g.: sparc.
Cache that info in perf_env so that, for instance, code needing to
fallback failed symbol lookups at the kernel space in single address
space arches can lookup at userspace.

We'll set a new machine field based on env->arch, which for live mode,
like with 'perf top' means we need to use uname() to figure the name of
the arch, fix perf_env__arch() to consider both (env == NULL) and
(env->arch == NULL) as local operation.

When using the -x option, perf stat prints CSV-style output with one
event per line. For each event, it prints the count, the unit, the
event name, the cgroup, and a bunch of other event specific fields (such
as insn per cycles).
When you use CSV-style mode, you expect a normalized output where each
event is printed with the same number of fields regardless of what it is
so it can easily be imported into a spreadsheet or parsed.
For instance, if an event does not have a unit, then print an empty
field for it.
Although this approach was implemented for the unit, it was not for the
cgroup.
When mixing cgroup and non-cgroup events, then non-cgroup events would
not show an empty field, instead the next field was printed, make
columns not line up correctly.
This patch fixes the cgroup output issues by forcing an empty field
for non-cgroup events as soon as one event has cgroup.
Before:
<not counted> @ @cycles @foo @ 0 @100.00@@
2531614 @ @cycles @6420922@100.00@ @
foo cgroup lines up with time_running!
After:
<not counted> @ @cycles @foo @0 @100.00@@
2594834 @ @cycles @ @5287372 @100.00@@
Fields line up.

Commit 0aa802a79469 ("perf stat: Get rid of extra clock display
function") introduced scale and unit for clock events. Thus,
perf_stat__update_shadow_stats() now saves scaled values of clock events
in msecs, instead of original nsecs. But while calculating values of
shadow stats we still consider clock event values in nsecs. This results
in a wrong shadow stat values. Ex,
# ./perf stat -e task-clock,cycles ls
<SNIP>
2.60 msec task-clock:u # 0.877 CPUs utilized
2,430,564 cycles:u # 1215282.000 GHz
Fix this by saving original nsec values for clock events in
perf_stat__update_shadow_stats(). After patch:
# ./perf stat -e task-clock,cycles ls
<SNIP>
3.14 msec task-clock:u # 0.839 CPUs utilized
3,094,528 cycles:u # 0.985 GHz

The weak functions, strcmp_cpuid_str() and get_cpuid_str(), are defined
in pmu.c.
Most of the cpuid related functions, including *_cpuid_str()'s
declaration and platform specific definition, are in header.c/h.
To make the declaration and definition of all cpuid related functions in
a consistent place, move the weak functions to header.c.
There is no functional change.

Perf can take minutes to parse an image when -ffunction-section is used.
This is especially true with the kernel image when it is compiled this
way, which is the arm64 default since the patcheset "Enable deadcode
elimination at link time".
Perf organize maps using a rbtree. Whenever perf finds a new symbols, it
first searches this rbtree for the map it belongs to, by strcmp()'aring
section names. When it finds the map with the right name, it uses it to
add the symbol. With a usual image there aren't so many maps but when
using -ffunction-section there's basically one map per function. With
the kernel image that's north of 40,000 maps. For most symbols perf has
to parses the entire rbtree to eventually create a new map and add it.
Consequently perf spends most of the time browsing a rbtree that keeps
getting larger.
This performance fix introduces a secondary rbtree that indexes maps
based on the section name.

The perf tools cannot find the proper event list for the Cascadelake
server. Because the Cascadelake server and the Skylake server have the
same CPU model number, which are used by the perf tools to find the
event list.
The stepping for Skylake server is up to 4.
The stepping for Cascadelake server starts from 5.
The stepping can be used to distinguish between them.
The stepping is added in get_cpuid_str().
The stepping information for Skylake server is updated in mapfile.csv.
A x86 specific strcmp_cpuid_cmp() function is added to handle two CPUID
formats in mapfile.csv, "vendor-family-model-stepping" and
"vendor-family-model":
- If a cpuid-regular-expression from the mapfile.csv using the new
stepping format, a cpuid-string generated on the machine must include
stepping. Otherwise, it is a mismatch.
- If the cpuid-regular-expression using the old non-stepping format,
the stepping in the cpuid-string will be ignored.
The script, using environment string "PERF_CPUID" without stepping on
Skylake server, will be broken. If so, users must fix their scripts.

Depending on which functions are inlined in util/pmu.c, the snprintf()
calls in perf_pmu__parse_{scale,unit,per_pkg,snapshot}() might trigger a
warning:
util/pmu.c: In function 'pmu_aliases':
util/pmu.c:178:31: error: '%s' directive output may be truncated writing up to 255 bytes into a region of size between 0 and 4095 [-Werror=format-truncation=]
snprintf(path, PATH_MAX, "%s/%s.unit", dir, name);
^~
I found this when trying to build perf from Linux 3.16 with gcc 8.
However I can reproduce the problem in mainline if I force
__perf_pmu__new_alias() to be inlined.
Suppress this by using scnprintf() as has been done elsewhere in perf.

When reporting on 'record' server we try to retrieve/use the mnt
namespace of the profiled tasks. We use following API with cookie to
hold the return namespace, roughly:
nsinfo__mountns_enter(struct nsinfo *nsi, struct nscookie *nc)
setns(newns, 0);
...
new ns related open..
...
nsinfo__mountns_exit(struct nscookie *nc)
setns(nc->oldns)
Once finished we setns to old namespace, which also sets the current
working directory (cwd) to "/", trashing the cwd we had.
This is mostly fine, because we use absolute paths almost everywhere,
but it screws up 'perf diff':
# perf diff
failed to open perf.data: No such file or directory (try 'perf record' first)
...
Adding the current working directory to be part of the cookie and
restoring it in the nsinfo__mountns_exit call.

On s390 the CPU Measurement Facility for counters now supports
2 PMUs named cpum_cf (CPU Measurement Facility for counters) and
cpum_cf_diag (CPU Measurement Facility for diagnostic counters)
for one and the same CPU.
Running command
[root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf stat -e tx_c_tend \
-- ~/mytests/cf-tx-events 1
Measuring transactions
TX_C_TABORT_NO_SPECIAL: 0 expected:0
TX_C_TABORT_SPECIAL: 0 expected:0
TX_C_TEND: 1 expected:1
TX_NC_TABORT: 11 expected:11
TX_NC_TEND: 1 expected:1
Performance counter stats for '/root/mytests/cf-tx-events 1':
2 tx_c_tend
0.002120091 seconds time elapsed
0.000121000 seconds user
0.002127000 seconds sys
[root@s35lp76 perf]#
displays output which is unexpected (and wrong):
2 tx_c_tend
The test program definitely triggers only one transaction, as shown
in line 'TX_C_TEND: 1 expected:1'.
This is caused by the following call sequence:
pmu_lookup() scans and installs a PMU.
+--> pmu_aliases() parses all aliases in directory
.../<pmu-name>/events/* which are file names.
+--> pmu_aliases_parse() Read each file in directory and create
an new alias entry. This is done with
+--> perf_pmu__new_alias() and
+--> __perf_pmu__new_alias() which also check for
identical alias names.
After pmu_aliases() returns, a complete list of event names
for this pmu has been created. Now function
pmu_add_cpu_aliases() is called to add the events listed in the json
| files to the alias list of the cpu.
+--> perf_pmu__find_map() Returns a pointer to the json events.
Now function pmu_add_cpu_aliases() scans through all events listed
in the JSON files for this CPU.
Each json event pmu name is compared with the current PMU being
built up and if they mismatch, the json event is added to the
current PMUs alias list.
To avoid duplicate entries the following comparison is done:
if (!is_arm_pmu_core(name)) {
pname = pe->pmu ? pe->pmu : "cpu";
if (strncmp(pname, name, strlen(pname)))
continue;
}
The culprit is the strncmp() function.
Using current s390 PMU naming, the first PMU is 'cpum_cf'
and a long list of events is added, among them 'tx_c_tend'
When the second PMU named 'cpum_cf_diag' is added, only one event
named 'CF_DIAG' is added by the pmu_aliases() function.
Now function pmu_add_cpu_aliases() is invoked for PMU 'cpum_cf_diag'.
Since the CPUID string is the same for both PMUs, json file events
for PMU named 'cpum_cf' are added to the PMU 'cpm_cf_diag'
This happens because the strncmp() actually compares:
strncmp("cpum_cf", "cpum_cf_diag", 6);
The first parameter is the pmu name taken from the event in
the json file. The second parameter is the pmu name of the PMU
currently being built.
They are different, but the length of the compare only tests the
common prefix and this returns 0(true) when it should return false.
Now all events for PMU cpum_cf are added to the alias list for pmu
cpum_cf_diag.
Later on in function parse_events_add_pmu() the event 'tx_c_end' is

In the absence of a fallback, samples must provide a correct cpumode for
the 'ip'. Do that now there is no fallback.

When synthesizing FORK events, we are trying to create thread objects
for the already running tasks on the machine.
Normally, for a kernel FORK event, we want to clone the parent's maps
because that is what the kernel just did.
But when synthesizing, this should not be done. If we do, we end up
with overlapping maps as we process the sythesized MMAP2 events that
get delivered shortly thereafter.
Use the FORK event misc flags in an internal way to signal this
situation, so we can elide the map clone when appropriate.

When processing using 'perf report -g caller', which is the default, we
ended up reverting the callchain entries received from the kernel, but
simply reverting throws away the information that tells that from a
point onwards the addresses are for userspace, kernel, guest kernel,
guest user, hypervisor.
The idea is that if we are walking backwards, for each cluster of
non-cpumode entries we have to first scan backwards for the next one and
use that for the cluster.
This seems silly and more expensive than it needs to be but it is enough
for a initial fix.
The code here is really complicated because it is intimately intertwined
with the lbr and branch handling, as well as this callchain order,
further fixes will be needed to properly take into account the cpumode
in those cases.
Another problem with ORDER_CALLER is that the NULL "0" IP that is at the
end of most callchains shows up at the top of the histogram because
every callchain contains it and with ORDER_CALLER it is the first entry.

Since commit edeb0c90df35 ("perf tools: Stop fallbacking to kallsyms for
vdso symbols lookup"), the kernel address cannot be properly parsed to
kernel symbol with command 'perf script -k vmlinux'. The reason is
CoreSight samples is always to set CPU mode as PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER,
thus it fails to find corresponding map/dso in below flows:
process_sample_event()
`-> machine__resolve()
`-> thread__find_map(thread, sample->cpumode, sample->ip, al);
In this flow it needs to pass argument 'sample->cpumode' to tell what's
the CPU mode, before it always passed PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER but without
any failure until the commit edeb0c90df35 ("perf tools: Stop fallbacking
to kallsyms for vdso symbols lookup") has been merged. The reason is
even with the wrong CPU mode the function thread__find_map() firstly
fails to find map but it will rollback to find kernel map for vdso
symbols lookup. In the latest code it has removed the fallback code,
thus if CPU mode is PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER then it cannot find map
anymore with kernel address.
This patch is to correct samples CPU mode setting, it creates a new
helper function cs_etm__cpu_mode() to tell what's the CPU mode based on
the address with the info from machine structure; this patch has a bit
extension to check not only kernel and user mode, but also check for
host/guest and hypervisor mode. Finally this patch uses the function in
instruction and branch samples and also apply in cs_etm__mem_access()
for a minor polishing.

libdwfl parses an ELF file itself and creates mappings for the
individual sections. perf on the other hand sees raw mmap events which
represent individual sections. When we encounter an address pointing
into a mapping with pgoff != 0, we must take that into account and
report the file at the non-offset base address.
This fixes unwinding with libdwfl in some cases. E.g. for a file like:
```
using namespace std;
mutex g_mutex;
double worker()
{
lock_guard<mutex> guard(g_mutex);
uniform_real_distribution<double> uniform(-1E5, 1E5);
default_random_engine engine;
double s = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < 1000; ++i) {
s += norm(complex<double>(uniform(engine), uniform(engine)));
}
cout << s << endl;
return s;
}
int main()
{
vector<std::future<double>> results;
for (int i = 0; i < 10000; ++i) {
results.push_back(async(launch::async, worker));
}
return 0;
}
```
Compile it with `g++ -g -O2 -lpthread cpp-locking.cpp -o cpp-locking`,
then record it with `perf record --call-graph dwarf -e
sched:sched_switch`.
When you analyze it with `perf script` and libunwind, you should see:

Committer note:
Further comment by Milian on the thread started on the Link: tag below:
---
The remaining issue is due to a bug in elfutils:
https://sourceware.org/ml/elfutils-devel/2018-q4/msg00089.html
With both patches applied, libunwind and elfutils produce the same output for
the above scenario.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"The biggest change here is the updates to kprobes
Back in January I posted patches to create function based events.
These were the events that you suggested I make to allow developers to
easily create events in code where no trace event exists. After
posting those changes for review, it was suggested that we implement
this instead with kprobes.
The problem with kprobes is that the interface is too complex and
needs to be simplified. Masami Hiramatsu posted patches in March and
I've been playing with them a bit. There's been a bit of clean up in
the kprobe code that was inspired by the function based event patches,
and a couple of enhancements to the kprobe event interface.
- If the arch supports it (we added support for x86), you can place a
kprobe event at the start of a function and use $arg1, $arg2, etc
to reference the arguments of a function. (Before you needed to
know what register or where on the stack the argument was).
- The second is a way to see array of events. For example, if you
reference a mac address, you can add:
echo 'p:mac ip_rcv perm_addr=+574($arg2):x8[6]' > kprobe_events
And this will produce:
mac: (ip_rcv+0x0/0x140) perm_addr={0x52,0x54,0x0,0xc0,0x76,0xec}
Other changes include
- Exporting trace_dump_stack to modules
- Have the stack tracer trace the entire stack (stop trying to remove
tracing itself, as we keep removing too much).
- Added support for SDT in uprobes"
[ SDT - "Statically Defined Tracing" are userspace markers for tracing.
Let's not use random TLA's in explanations unless they are fairly
well-established as generic (at least for kernel people) - Linus ]

By default 'perf script' for itrace outputs sampled instructions or
branches. In my experience this is confusing to users because it's hard
to correlate with real program behavior. The sampling makes sense for
tools like 'perf report' that actually sample to reduce the run time,
but run time is normally not a problem for 'perf script'. It's better
to give an accurate representation of the program flow.
Default 'perf script' to output all calls for itrace. That's a much saner
default. The old behavior can be still requested with 'perf script'

Because there may be more such events in the ring buffer that should be
discarded when an app decides to stop considering them.
At some point we'll do this with eBPF, this way we stop them at origin,
before they are placed in the ring buffer.

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Implement two new kind of BPF maps, that is, queue and stack
map along with new peek, push and pop operations, from Mauricio.
2) Add support for MSG_PEEK flag when redirecting into an ingress
psock sk_msg queue, and add a new helper bpf_msg_push_data() for
insert data into the message, from John.
3) Allow for BPF programs of type BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SKB to use
direct packet access for __skb_buff, from Song.
4) Use more lightweight barriers for walking perf ring buffer for
libbpf and perf tool as well. Also, various fixes and improvements
from verifier side, from Daniel.
5) Add per-symbol visibility for DSO in libbpf and hide by default
global symbols such as netlink related functions, from Andrey.
6) Two improvements to nfp's BPF offload to check vNIC capabilities
in case prog is shared with multiple vNICs and to protect against
mis-initializing atomic counters, from Jakub.
7) Fix for bpftool to use 4 context mode for the nfp disassembler,
also from Jakub.
8) Fix a return value comparison in test_libbpf.sh and add several
bpftool improvements in bash completion, documentation of bpf fs
restrictions and batch mode summary print, from Quentin.
9) Fix a file resource leak in BPF selftest's load_kallsyms()
helper, from Peng.
10) Fix an unused variable warning in map_lookup_and_delete_elem(),
from Alexei.

Currently, on x86-64, perf uses LFENCE and MFENCE (rmb() and mb(),
respectively) when processing events from the perf ring buffer which
is unnecessarily expensive as we can do more lightweight in particular
given this is critical fast-path in perf.
According to Peter rmb()/mb() were added back then via a94d342b9cb0
("tools/perf: Add required memory barriers") at a time where kernel
still supported chips that needed it, but nowadays support for these
has been ditched completely, therefore we can fix them up as well.
While for x86-64, replacing rmb() and mb() with smp_*() variants would
result in just a compiler barrier for the former and LOCK + ADD for
the latter (__sync_synchronize() uses slower MFENCE by the way), Peter
suggested we can use smp_{load_acquire,store_release}() instead for
architectures where its implementation doesn't resolve in slower smp_mb().
Thus, e.g. in x86-64 we would be able to avoid CPU barrier entirely due
to TSO. For architectures where the latter needs to use smp_mb() e.g.
on arm, we stick to cheaper smp_rmb() variant for fetching the head.
This work adds helpers ring_buffer_read_head() and ring_buffer_write_tail()
for tools infrastructure that either switches to smp_load_acquire() for
architectures where it is cheaper or uses READ_ONCE() + smp_rmb() barrier
for those where it's not in order to fetch the data_head from the perf
control page, and it uses smp_store_release() to write the data_tail.
Latter is smp_mb() + WRITE_ONCE() combination or a cheaper variant if
architecture allows for it. Those that rely on smp_rmb() and smp_mb() can
further improve performance in a follow up step by implementing the two
under tools/arch/*/include/asm/barrier.h such that they don't have to
fallback to rmb() and mb() in tools/include/asm/barrier.h.
Switch perf to use ring_buffer_read_head() and ring_buffer_write_tail()
so it can make use of the optimizations. Later, we convert libbpf as
well to use the same helpers.
Side note [0]: the topic has been raised of whether one could simply use
the C11 gcc builtins [1] for the smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release()
instead:
__atomic_load_n(ptr, __ATOMIC_ACQUIRE);
__atomic_store_n(ptr, val, __ATOMIC_RELEASE);
Kernel and (presumably) tooling shipped along with the kernel has a
minimum requirement of being able to build with gcc-4.6 and the latter
does not have C11 builtins. While generally the C11 memory models don't
align with the kernel's, the C11 load-acquire and store-release alone
/could/ suffice, however. Issue is that this is implementation dependent
on how the load-acquire and store-release is done by the compiler and
the mapping of supported compilers must align to be compatible with the
kernel's implementation, and thus needs to be verified/tracked on a
case by case basis whether they match (unless an architecture uses them
also from kernel side). The implementations for smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() in this patch have been adapted from the kernel side
ones to have a concrete and compatible mapping in place.

it via the event parser, to test it lets trace trace:
First look at where in a function that receives an evsel we can put a probe
to read how evsel->max_events was setup:
# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf -L trace__event_handler
<trace__event_handler@/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/builtin-trace.c:0>
0 static int trace__event_handler(struct trace *trace, struct perf_evsel *evsel,
union perf_event *event __maybe_unused,
struct perf_sample *sample)
3 {
4 struct thread *thread = machine__findnew_thread(trace->host, sample->pid, sample->tid);
5 int callchain_ret = 0;
7 if (sample->callchain) {
8 callchain_ret = trace__resolve_callchain(trace, evsel, sample, &callchain_cursor);
9 if (callchain_ret == 0) {
10 if (callchain_cursor.nr < trace->min_stack)
11 goto out;
12 callchain_ret = 1;
}
}
See what variables we can probe at line 7:
# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf -V trace__event_handler:7
Available variables at trace__event_handler:7
@<trace__event_handler+89>
int callchain_ret
struct perf_evsel* evsel
struct perf_sample* sample
struct thread* thread
struct trace* trace
union perf_event* event
Add a probe at that line asking for evsel->max_events to be collected and named
as "max_events":
# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf trace__event_handler:7 'max_events=evsel->max_events'
Added new event:
probe_perf:trace__event_handler (on trace__event_handler:7 in /home/acme/bin/perf with max_events=evsel->max_events)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_perf:trace__event_handler -aR sleep 1
Now use 'perf trace', here aliased to just 'trace' and trace trace, i.e.
the first 'trace' is tracing just that 'probe_perf:trace__event_handler' event,
while the traced trace is tracing all scheduler tracepoints, will stop at two
events (--max-events 2) and will just set evsel->max_events for all the sched
tracepoints to 9, we will see the output of both traces intermixed:
# trace -e *perf:*event_handler trace --max-events 2 -e sched:*/nr=9/
0.000 :0/0 sched:sched_waking:comm=rcu_sched pid=10 prio=120 target_cpu=000
0.009 :0/0 sched:sched_wakeup:comm=rcu_sched pid=10 prio=120 target_cpu=000
0.000 trace/23949 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9
0.046 trace/23949 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9
#
Now, if the traced trace sends its output to /dev/null, we'll see just
what the first level trace outputs: that evsel->max_events is indeed
being set to 9:
# trace -e *perf:*event_handler trace -o /dev/null --max-events 2 -e sched:*/nr=9/
0.000 trace/23961 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9
0.030 trace/23961 probe_perf:trace__event_handler:(48c34a) max_events=0x9
#
Now that we can set evsel->max_events, we can go to the next step, honour that
per-event property in 'perf trace'.

Using the sh_entsize for both values isn't correct. It happens to be
correct on x86...
For both 32-bit and 64-bit sparc, there are four PLT entries in the PLT

David reports that:
<quote>
Perf has this hack where it uses the kernel symbol map as a backup when
a symbol can't be found in the user's symbol table(s).
This causes problems because the tests driving this code path use
machine__kernel_ip(), and that is completely meaningless on Sparc. On
sparc64 the kernel and user live in physically separate virtual address
spaces, rather than a shared one. And the kernel lives at a virtual
address that overlaps common userspace addresses. So this test passes
almost all the time when a user symbol lookup fails.
The consequence of this is that, if the unfound user virtual address in
the sample doesn't match up to a kernel symbol either, we trigger things
like this code in builtin-top.c:
if (al.sym == NULL && al.map != NULL) {
const char *msg = "Kernel samples will not be resolved.\n";
/*
* As we do lazy loading of symtabs we only will know if the
* specified vmlinux file is invalid when we actually have a
* hit in kernel space and then try to load it. So if we get
* here and there are _no_ symbols in the DSO backing the
* kernel map, bail out.
*
* We may never get here, for instance, if we use -K/
* --hide-kernel-symbols, even if the user specifies an
* invalid --vmlinux ;-)
*/
if (!machine->kptr_restrict_warned && !top->vmlinux_warned &&
__map__is_kernel(al.map) && map__has_symbols(al.map)) {
if (symbol_conf.vmlinux_name) {
char serr[256];
dso__strerror_load(al.map->dso, serr, sizeof(serr));
ui__warning("The %s file can't be used: %s\n%s",
symbol_conf.vmlinux_name, serr, msg);
} else {
ui__warning("A vmlinux file was not found.\n%s",
msg);
}
if (use_browser <= 0)
sleep(5);
top->vmlinux_warned = true;
}
}
When I fire up a compilation on sparc, this triggers immediately.
I'm trying to figure out what the "backup to kernel map" code is
accomplishing.
I see some language in the current code and in the changes that have
happened in this area talking about vdso. Does that really happen?
The vdso is mapped into userspace virtual addresses, not kernel ones.
More history. This didn't cause problems on sparc some time ago,
because the kernel IP check used to be "ip < 0" :-) Sparc kernel
addresses are not negative. But now with machine__kernel_ip(), which
works using the symbol table determined kernel address range, it does
trigger.
What it all boils down to is that on architectures like sparc,
machine__kernel_ip() should always return false in this scenerio, and
therefore this kind of logic:
if (cpumode == PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER && machine &&
mg != &machine->kmaps &&
machine__kernel_ip(machine, al->addr)) {
is basically invalid. PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER implies no kernel address
can possibly match for the sample/event in question (no matter how
hard you try!) :-)
</>
So, I thought something had changed and in the past we would somehow
find that address in the kallsyms, but I couldn't find anything to back
that up, the patch introducing this is over a decade old, lots of things
changed, so I was just thinking I was missing something.
I tried a gtod busy loop to generate vdso activity and added a 'perf
probe' at that branch, on x86_64 to see if it ever gets hit:
Made thread__find_map() noinline, as 'perf probe' in lines of inline
functions seems to not be working, only at function start. (Masami?)
# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf -L thread__find_map:57
<thread__find_map@/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/util/event.c:57>
57 if (cpumode == PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER && machine &&
58 mg != &machine->kmaps &&
59 machine__kernel_ip(machine, al->addr)) {
60 mg = &machine->kmaps;
61 load_map = true;
62 goto try_again;
}
} else {
/*
* Kernel maps might be changed when loading
* symbols so loading
* must be done prior to using kernel maps.
*/
69 if (load_map)
70 map__load(al->map);
71 al->addr = al->map->map_ip(al->map, al->addr);
# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf thread__find_map:60
Added new event:
probe_perf:thread__find_map (on thread__find_map:60 in /home/acme/bin/perf)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_perf:thread__find_map -aR sleep 1
#
Then used this to see if, system wide, those probe points were being hit:
# perf trace -e *perf:thread*/max-stack=8/
^C[root@jouet ~]#
No hits when running 'perf top' and:
# cat gtod.c
#include <sys/time.h>
int main(void)
{
struct timeval tv;
while (1)
gettimeofday(&tv, 0);
return 0;
}
[root@jouet c]# ./gtod

I added a 'perf probe' to thread__find_map:69, and that surely got tons
of hits, i.e. for every map found, just to make sure the 'perf probe'
command was really working.
In the process I noticed a bug, we're only have records for '[vdso]' for
pre-existing commands, i.e. ones that are running when we start 'perf top',
when we will generate the PERF_RECORD_MMAP by looking at /perf/PID/maps.
I.e. like this, for preexisting processes with a vdso map, again,
tracing for all the system, only pre-existing processes get a [vdso] map
(when having one):
[root@jouet ~]# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf __machine__addnew_vdso
Added new event:
probe_perf:__machine__addnew_vdso (on __machine__addnew_vdso in /home/acme/bin/perf)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_perf:__machine__addnew_vdso -aR sleep 1
[root@jouet ~]# perf trace -e probe_perf:__machine__addnew_vdso/max-stack=8/

'perf top' is not getting those records while 'perf record' is:

So instead handle the case where we get invalid function names for
inlined frames and use a fallback '??' function name instead.
While this crash was originally reported by Hadrien for rust code, I can
now also reproduce it with trivial C++ code. Indeed, it seems like
libbfd fails to interpret the debug information for the inline frame
symbol name:
$ addr2line -e /home/milian/.debug/.build-id/f7/186d14bb94f3c6161c010926da66033d24fce5/elf -if b48
