perf intel-pt: Remove first line of log dumped on error

2022-10-04T11:55:21Z

Instead of printing "(first line may be sliced)", always remove the first line of the debug log if the buffer has wrapped when dumping on error.

perf intel-pt: Support itrace option flag d+e to log on error

2022-10-04T11:55:21Z

Pass d+e option and log size via intel_pt_log_enable(). Allocate a buffer for log messages and provide intel_pt_log_dump_buf() to dump and reset the buffer upon decoder errors. Example: $ sudo perf record -e intel_pt// sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.094 MB perf.data ] $ sudo perf config itrace.debug-log-buffer-size=300 $ sudo perf script --itrace=ed+e+o | head -20 Dumping debug log buffer (first line may be sliced) Other ffffffff96ca22f6: 48 89 e5 Other ffffffff96ca22f9: 65 48 8b 05 ff e0 38 69 Other ffffffff96ca2301: 48 3d c0 a5 c1 98 Other ffffffff96ca2307: 74 08 Jcc +8 ffffffff96ca2311: 5d Other ffffffff96ca2312: c3 Ret ERROR: Bad RET compression (TNT=N) at 0xffffffff96ca2312 End of debug log buffer dump instruction trace error type 1 time 15913.537143482 cpu 5 pid 36292 tid 36292 ip 0xffffffff96ca2312 code 6: Trace doesn't match instruction Dumping debug log buffer (first line may be sliced) Other ffffffff96ce7fe9: f6 47 2e 20 Other ffffffff96ce7fed: 74 11 Jcc +17 ffffffff96ce7fef: 48 8b 87 28 0a 00 00 Other ffffffff96ce7ff6: 5d Other ffffffff96ce7ff7: 48 8b 40 18 Other ffffffff96ce7ffb: c3 Ret ERROR: Bad RET compression (TNT=N) at 0xffffffff96ce7ffb Warning: 8 instruction trace errors Reviewed-by: Andi Kleen Reviewed-by: Namhyung Kim Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter Cc: Ian Rogers Cc: Jiri Olsa Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220905073424.3971-6-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf intel-pt: Add support for emulated ptwrite

2022-05-17T14:55:49Z

ptwrite is an Intel x86 instruction that writes arbitrary values into an Intel PT trace. It is not supported on all hardware, so provide an alternative that makes use of TNT packets to convey the payload data. TNT packets encode Taken/Not-taken conditional branch information, so taking branches based on the payload value will encode the value into the TNT packet. Refer to the changes to the documentation file perf-intel-pt.txt in this patch for an example.

perf intel-pt: decoder: Add MODE.Exec IFLAG processing

2022-02-15T20:08:03Z

As of Intel SDM (https://www.intel.com/sdm) version 076, there is a new Intel PT feature called Event Trace which adds a bit to the existing MODE.Exec packet to record the interrupt flag. Previously, the MODE.Exec packet did not generate any events, so the new processing required is practically the same as a new packet.

perf intel-pt: decoder: Add CFE (Control Flow Event) and EVD (Event Data) processing

2022-02-15T20:07:23Z

As of Intel SDM (https://www.intel.com/sdm) version 076, there is a new Intel PT feature called Event Trace which requires 2 new packets CFE (Control Flow Event) and EVD (Event Data). Each Event Trace event is represented by a CFE packet that is preceded by zero or more EVD packets. It may be bound to a following FUP (Flow Update) packet that provides the IP. Event Trace exposes details about asynchronous events. The CFE packet contains a type field to identify one of the following: 1 INTR interrupt, fault, exception, NMI 2 IRET interrupt return 3 SMI system management interrupt 4 RSM resume from system management mode 5 SIPI startup interprocessor interrupt 6 INIT INIT signal 7 VMENTRY VM-Entry 8 VMEXIT VM-Entry 9 VMEXIT_INTR VM-Exit due to interrupt 10 SHUTDOWN Shutdown For more details, refer to the Intel SDM, Intel Processor Trace chapter. Add processing to the decoder for the new packets.

perf intel-pt: decoder: Factor out clearing of FUP (Flow Update) event variables

2022-02-15T20:06:58Z

Factor out clearing of FUP (Flow Update) event variables, to avoid code duplication. Committer Notes: From the Intel documentation: Flow Update Packets (FUP): FUPs provide the source IP addresses for asynchronous events (interrupt and exceptions), as well as other cases where the source address cannot be determined from the binary.

perf intel-pt: pkt-decoder: Add CFE and EVD packets

2022-02-15T20:05:44Z

As of Intel SDM (https://www.intel.com/sdm) version 076, there is a new Intel PT feature called Event Trace which requires 2 new packets CFE and EVD. Add them to the packet decoder and packet decoder test. Committer notes: I got the "Intel® 64 and IA-32 architectures software developer’s manual combined volumes: 1, 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, and 4" PDF at: https://cdrdv2.intel.com/v1/dl/getContent/671200 And these new packets are described in page 3951: 32.2.4 Event Trace is a capability that exposes details about the asynchronous events, when they are generated, and when their corresponding software event handler completes execution. These include: o Interrupts, including NMI and SMI, including the interrupt vector when defined. o Faults, exceptions including the fault vector. — Page faults additionally include the page fault address, when in context. o Event handler returns, including IRET and RSM. o VM exits and VM entries.¹ — VM exits include the values written to the “exit reason” and “exit qualification” VMCS fields. INIT and SIPI events. o TSX aborts, including the abort status returned for the RTM instructions. o Shutdown. Additionally, it provides indication of the status of the Interrupt Flag (IF), to indicate when interrupts are masked.

perf intel-pt: Fix missing 'instruction' events with 'q' option

2021-12-11T11:19:47Z

FUP packets contain IP information, which makes them also an 'instruction' event in 'hop' mode i.e. the itrace 'q' option. That wasn't happening, so restructure the logic so that FUP events are added along with appropriate 'instruction' and 'branch' events.
