2015-10-29perf bpf: Attach eBPF filter to perf eventWang Nan
This is the final patch which makes basic BPF filter work. After applying this patch, users are allowed to use BPF filter like: # perf record --event ./hello_world.o ls A bpf_fd field is appended to 'struct evsel', and setup during the callback function add_bpf_event() for each 'probe_trace_event'. PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF ioctl is used to attach eBPF program to a newly created perf event. The file descriptor of the eBPF program is passed to perf record using previous patches, and stored into evsel->bpf_fd. It is possible that different perf event are created for one kprobe events for different CPUs. In this case, when trying to call the ioctl, EEXIST will be return. This patch doesn't treat it as an error. Committer note: The bpf proggie used so far: __attribute__((section("fork=_do_fork"), used)) int fork(void *ctx) { return 0; } char _license[] __attribute__((section("license"), used)) = "GPL"; int _version __attribute__((section("version"), used)) = 0x40300; failed to produce any samples, even with forks happening and it being running in system wide mode. That is because now the filter is being associated, and the code above always returns zero, meaning that all forks will be probed but filtered away ;-/ Change it to 'return 1;' instead and after that: # trace --no-syscalls --event /tmp/foo.o 0.000 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) 2.333 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) 3.725 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) 4.550 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(ffffffff8109be30)) ^C# And it works with all tools, including 'perf trace'.

2015-10-28perf bpf: Collect perf_evsel in BPF object filesWang Nan
This patch creates a 'struct perf_evsel' for every probe in a BPF object file(s) and fills 'struct evlist' with them. The previously introduced dummy event is now removed. After this patch, the following command: # perf record --event filter.o ls Can trace on each of the probes defined in filter.o. The core of this patch is bpf__foreach_tev(), which calls a callback function for each 'struct probe_trace_event' event for a bpf program with each associated file descriptors. The add_bpf_event() callback creates evsels by calling parse_events_add_tracepoint(). Since bpf-loader.c will not be built if libbpf is turned off, an empty bpf__foreach_tev() is defined in bpf-loader.h to avoid build errors. Committer notes: Before: # /tmp/oldperf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a usleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.198 MB perf.data ] # perf evlist /tmp/foo.o # perf evlist -v /tmp/foo.o: type: 1, size: 112, config: 0x9, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1 I.e. we create just the PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE (type: 1), PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY(config 0x9) event, now, with this patch: # perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a usleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.210 MB perf.data ] # perf evlist -v perf_bpf_probe:fork: type: 2, size: 112, config: 0x6bd, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 1, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD|RAW, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1 # We now have a PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE (type: 1), but the config states 0x6bd, which is how, after setting up the event via the kprobes interface, the 'perf_bpf_probe:fork' event is accessible via the perf_event_open syscall. This is all transient, as soon as the 'perf record' session ends, these probes will go away.

2015-10-28perf tools: Create probe points for BPF programsWang Nan
This patch introduces bpf__{un,}probe() functions to enable callers to create kprobe points based on section names a BPF program. It parses the section names in the program and creates corresponding 'struct perf_probe_event' structures. The parse_perf_probe_command() function is used to do the main parsing work. The resuling 'struct perf_probe_event' is stored into program private data for further using. By utilizing the new probing API, this patch creates probe points during event parsing. To ensure probe points be removed correctly, register an atexit hook so even perf quit through exit() bpf__clear() is still called, so probing points are cleared. Note that bpf_clear() should be registered before bpf__probe() is called, so failure of bpf__probe() can still trigger bpf__clear() to remove probe points which are already probed. strerror style error reporting scaffold is created by this patch. bpf__strerror_probe() is the first error reporting function in bpf-loader.c.

2015-10-28perf tools: Enable passing bpf object file to --eventWang Nan
By introducing new rules in tools/perf/util/parse-events.[ly], this patch enables 'perf record --event bpf_file.o' to select events by an eBPF object file. It calls parse_events_load_bpf() to load that file, which uses bpf__prepare_load() and finally calls bpf_object__open() for the object files. After applying this patch, commands like: # perf record --event foo.o sleep become possible. However, at this point it is unable to link any useful things onto the evsel list because the creating of probe points and BPF program attaching have not been implemented. Before real events are possible to be extracted, to avoid perf report error because of empty evsel list, this patch link a dummy evsel. The dummy event related code will be removed when probing and extracting code is ready. Commiter notes: Using it: $ ls -la foo.o ls: cannot access foo.o: No such file or directory $ perf record --event foo.o sleep libbpf: failed to open foo.o: No such file or directory event syntax error: 'foo.o' \___ BPF object file 'foo.o' is invalid (add -v to see detail) Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] -e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events $ $ file /tmp/build/perf/perf.o /tmp/build/perf/perf.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped $ perf record --event /tmp/build/perf/perf.o sleep libbpf: /tmp/build/perf/perf.o is not an eBPF object file event syntax error: '/tmp/build/perf/perf.o' \___ BPF object file '/tmp/build/perf/perf.o' is invalid (add -v to see detail) Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] -e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events $ $ file /tmp/foo.o /tmp/foo.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, no machine, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped $ perf record --event /tmp/foo.o sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.013 MB perf.data ] $ perf evlist /tmp/foo.o $ perf evlist -v /tmp/foo.o: type: 1, size: 112, config: 0x9, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1 $ So, type 1 is PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE, config 0x9 is PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY, ok. $ perf report --stdio Error: The perf.data file has no samples! # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # $ Signed-off-by: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Cc: Brendan Gregg <brendan.d.gregg@gmail.com> Cc: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Kaixu Xia <xiakaixu@huawei.com> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Zefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: pi3orama@163.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1444826502-49291-4-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2015-10-28perf symbols: Fix endless loop in dso__split_kallsyms_for_kcoreJiri Olsa
Currently we split symbols based on the map comparison, but symbols are stored within dso objects and maps could point into same dso objects (kernel maps). Hence we could end up changing rbtree we are currently iterating and mess it up. It's easily reproduced on s390x by running: $ perf record -a -- sleep 3 $ perf buildid-list -i perf.data --with-hits The fix is to compare dso objects instead.

2015-10-28perf symbols: we can now read separate debug-info files based on a build IDDima Kogan
Recent GDB (at least on a vanilla Debian box) looks for debug information in /usr/lib/debug/.build-id/nn/nnnnnnn where nn/nnnnnn is the build-id of the stripped ELF binary. This is documented here: https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Separate-Debug-Files.html This was not working in perf because we didn't read the build id until AFTER we searched for the separate debug information file. This patch reads the build ID and THEN does the search.

2015-10-19perf test: Suppress libtraceevent warningsNamhyung Kim
Currently libtraceevent emits warning on unsupported event formats. However it'd be better to see them only -v option is given. To do that, it needs to override the warning() function which is used in the libtracevent. Thus add set_warning_routine() same as set_die_routine() and check the verbose flag in our warning routine. Before: # perf test 5 5: parse events tests : Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_get_page] bad op token { Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_sync_page] bad op token { Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_unsync_page] bad op token { Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page] bad op token { Warning: [kvmmmu:fast_page_fault] function is_writable_pte not defined ...
