2017-08-11perf report: Fix module symbol adjustment for s390xThomas Richter1-0/+3
The 'perf report' tool does not display the addresses of kernel module symbols correctly. For example symbol qeth_send_ipa_cmd in kernel module qeth.ko has this relative address for function qeth_send_ipa_cmd(): [root@s8360047 linux]# nm -g drivers/s390/net/qeth.ko | fgrep send_ipa_cmd 0000000000013088 T qeth_send_ipa_cmd The module is loaded at address: [root@s8360047 linux]# cat /sys/module/qeth/sections/.text 0x000003ff80296d20 [root@s8360047 linux]# This should result in a start address of: 0x13088 + 0x3ff80296d20 = 0x3ff802a9da8 Using crash to verify the address on a live system: [root@s8360046 linux]# crash vmlinux crash 7.1.9++ Copyright (C) 2002-2016 Red Hat, Inc.

The difference is from the offset the .text segment of qeth.ko: [root@s8360047 perf]# readelf -a drivers/s390/net/qeth.ko Section Headers: [Nr] Name Type Address Offset Size EntSize Flags Link Info Align [ 0] NULL 0000000000000000 00000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0 0 0 [ 1] .note.gnu.build-i NOTE 0000000000000000 00000040 0000000000000024 0000000000000000 A 0 0 4 [ 2] .text PROGBITS 0000000000000000 00000068 000000000001c8a0 0000000000000000 AX 0 0 8 As seen the .text segment has an offset of 0x68 with start address 0x0. Therefore 0x68 is added to the address of qeth_send_ipa_cmd and thus 0x13088 + 0x68 = 0x130f0 is displayed. This is wrong, perf report needs to display the start address of symbol qeth_send_ipa_cmd at 0x13088 + qeth.ko.text section start address. The qeth.ko module .text start address is available in the qeth.ko DSO map. Just identify the kernel module symbols and correct the addresses. With the fix I see this correct address for symbol: symbol__new: qeth_send_ipa_cmd 0x3ff802a9da8-0x3ff802a9f86 Signed-off-by: Thomas-Mich Richter <tmricht@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Hendrik Brueckner <brueckner@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Thomas-Mich Richter <tmricht@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Zvonko Kosic <zvonko.kosic@de.ibm.com> LPU-Reference: 20170803134902.47207-1-tmricht@linux.vnet.ibm.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-q8lktlpoxb5e3dj52u1s1rw4@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2017-08-11perf record: Fix wrong size in perf_record_mmap for last kernel moduleThomas Richter1-1/+1
During work on perf report for s390 I ran into the following issue: 0 0x318 [0x78]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP -1/0: [0x3ff804d6990(0xfffffc007fb2966f) @ 0]: x /lib/modules/4.12.0perf1+/kernel/drivers/s390/net/qeth_l2.ko This is a PERF_RECORD_MMAP entry of the perf.data file with an invalid module size for qeth_l2.ko (the s390 ethernet device driver). Even a mainframe does not have 0xfffffc007fb2966f bytes of main memory. It turned out that this wrong size is created by the perf record command. What happens is this function call sequence from __cmd_record(): perf_session__new(): perf_session__create_kernel_maps(): machine__create_kernel_maps(): machine__create_modules(): Creates map for all loaded kernel modules. modules__parse(): Reads /proc/modules and extracts module name and load address (1st and last column) machine__create_module(): Called for every module found in /proc/modules. Creates a new map for every module found and enters module name and start address into the map. Since the module end address is unknown it is set to zero. This ends up with a kernel module map list sorted by module start addresses. All module end addresses are zero. Last machine__create_kernel_maps() calls function map_groups__fixup_end(). This function iterates through the maps and assigns each map entry's end address the successor map entry start address. The last entry of the map group has no successor, so ~0 is used as end to consume the remaining memory. Later __cmd_record calls function record__synthesize() which in turn calls perf_event__synthesize_kernel_mmap() and perf_event__synthesize_modules() to create PERF_REPORT_MMAP entries into the perf.data file. On s390 this results in the last module qeth_l2.ko (which has highest start address, see module table: [root@s8360047 perf]# cat /proc/modules qeth_l2 86016 1 - Live 0x000003ff804d6000 qeth 266240 1 qeth_l2, Live 0x000003ff80296000 ccwgroup 24576 1 qeth, Live 0x000003ff80218000 vmur 36864 0 - Live 0x000003ff80182000 qdio 143360 2 qeth_l2,qeth, Live 0x000003ff80002000 [root@s8360047 perf]# ) to be the last entry and its map has an end address of ~0. When the PERF_RECORD_MMAP entry is created for kernel module qeth_l2.ko its start address and length is written. The length is calculated in line: event->mmap.len = pos->end - pos->start; and results in 0xffffffffffffffff - 0x3ff804d6990(*) = 0xfffffc007fb2966f (*) On s390 the module start address is actually determined by a __weak function named arch__fix_module_text_start() in machine__create_module(). I think this improvable. We can use the module size (2nd column of /proc/modules) to get each loaded kernel module size and calculate its end address. Only for map entries which do not have a valid end address (end is still zero) we can use the heuristic we have now, that is use successor start address or ~0.

2017-03-27perf report: Find the inline stack for a given addressJin Yao1-0/+2
It would be useful for perf to support a mode to query the inline stack for a given callgraph address. This would simplify finding the right code in code that does a lot of inlining. The srcline.c has contained the code which supports to translate the address to filename:line_nr. This patch just extends the function to let it support getting the inline stacks. It introduces the inline_list which will store the inline function result (filename:line_nr and funcname). If BFD lib is not supported, the result is only filename:line_nr.

2016-07-04perf sdt: ELF support for SDTHemant Kumar1-0/+22
This patch serves the initial support to identify and list SDT events in binaries. When programs containing SDT markers are compiled, gcc with the help of assembler directives identifies them and places them in the section ".note.stapsdt". To find these markers from the binaries, one needs to traverse through this section and parse the relevant details like the name, type and location of the marker. Also, the original location could be skewed due to the effect of prelinking. If that is the case, the locations need to be adjusted. The functions in this patch open a given ELF, find out the SDT section, parse the relevant details, adjust the location (if necessary) and populate them in a list. A typical note entry in ".note.stapsdt" section is as follows : |--nhdr.n_namesz--| ------------------------------------ | nhdr | "stapsdt" | ----- |----------------------------------| | | <location> <base_address> | | | <semaphore> | nhdr.n_descsize | "provider_name" "note_name" | | | <args> | ----- |----------------------------------| | nhdr | "stapsdt" | |... The above shows an excerpt from the section ".note.stapsdt". 'nhdr' is a structure which has the note name size (n_namesz), note description size (n_desc_sz) and note type (n_type). So, in order to parse the note note info, we need nhdr to tell us where to start from. As can be seen from <sys/sdt.h>, the name of the SDT notes given is "stapsdt". But this is not the identifier of the note. After that, we go to description of the note to find out its location, the address of the ".stapsdt.base" section and the semaphore address. Then, we find the provider name and the SDT marker name and then follow the arguments.

2016-05-11perf symbols: Add dso__insert_symbol functionChris Phlipot1-0/+3
The current method for inserting symbols is to use the symbols__insert() function. However symbols__insert() does not update the dso symbol cache. This causes problems in the following scenario: 1. symbol not found at addr using dso__find_symbol 2. symbol inserted at addr using the existing symbols__insert function 3. symbol still not found at addr using dso__find_symbol() because cache isn't updated. This is undesired behavior. The undesired behavior in (3) is addressed by creating a new function, dso__insert_symbol() to both insert the symbol and update the symbol cache if necessary. If dso__insert_symbol() is used in (2) instead of symbols__insert(), then the undesired behavior in (3) is avoided.

2016-05-05perf symbols: Fix kallsyms perf test on ppc64leNaveen N. Rao1-1/+2
ppc64le functions have a Global Entry Point (GEP) and a Local Entry Point (LEP). While placing a probe, we always prefer the LEP since it catches function calls through both the GEP and the LEP. In order to do this, we fixup the function entry points during elf symbol table lookup to point to the LEPs. This works, but breaks 'perf test kallsyms' since the symbols loaded from the symbol table (pointing to the LEP) do not match the symbols in kallsyms. To fix this, we do not adjust all the symbols during symbol table load. Instead, we note down st_other in a newly introduced arch-specific member of perf symbol structure, and later use this to adjust the probe trace point.

2014-12-01perf callchain: Support handling complete branch stacks as histogramsAndi Kleen1-1/+2
Currently branch stacks can be only shown as edge histograms for individual branches. I never found this display particularly useful. This implements an alternative mode that creates histograms over complete branch traces, instead of individual branches, similar to how normal callgraphs are handled. This is done by putting it in front of the normal callgraph and then using the normal callgraph histogram infrastructure to unify them. This way in complex functions we can understand the control flow that lead to a particular sample, and may even see some control flow in the caller for short functions. Example (simplified, of course for such simple code this is usually not needed), please run this after the whole patchkit is in, as at this point in the patch order there is no --branch-history, that will be added in a patch after this one: tcall.c: volatile a = 10000, b = 100000, c; __attribute__((noinline)) f2() { c = a / b; } __attribute__((noinline)) f1() { f2(); f2(); } main() { int i; for (i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) f1(); } % perf record -b -g ./tsrc/tcall [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.044 MB perf.data (~1923 samples) ] % perf report --no-children --branch-history ... 54.91% tcall.c:6 [.] f2 tcall | |--65.53%-- f2 tcall.c:5 | | | |--70.83%-- f1 tcall.c:11 | | f1 tcall.c:10 | | main tcall.c:18 | | main tcall.c:18 | | main tcall.c:17 | | main tcall.c:17 | | f1 tcall.c:13 | | f1 tcall.c:13 | | f2 tcall.c:7 | | f2 tcall.c:5 | | f1 tcall.c:12 | | f1 tcall.c:12 | | f2 tcall.c:7 | | f2 tcall.c:5 | | f1 tcall.c:11 | | | --29.17%-- f1 tcall.c:12 | f1 tcall.c:12 | f2 tcall.c:7 | f2 tcall.c:5 | f1 tcall.c:11 | f1 tcall.c:10 | main tcall.c:18 | main tcall.c:18 | main tcall.c:17 | main tcall.c:17 | f1 tcall.c:13 | f1 tcall.c:13 | f2 tcall.c:7 | f2 tcall.c:5 | f1 tcall.c:12 The default output is unchanged. This is only implemented in perf report, no change to record or anywhere else. This adds the basic code to report: - add a new "branch" option to the -g option parser to enable this mode - when the flag is set include the LBR into the callstack in machine.c. The rest of the history code is unchanged and doesn't know the difference between LBR entry and normal call entry. - detect overlaps with the callchain - remove small loop duplicates in the LBR Current limitations: - The LBR flags (mispredict etc.) are not shown in the history and LBR entries have no special marker. - It would be nice if annotate marked the LBR entries somehow (e.g. with arrows) v2: Various fixes. v3: Merge further patches into this one. Fix white space. v4: Improve manpage. Address review feedback. v5: Rename functions. Better error message without -g. Fix crash without -b. v6: Rebase v7: Rebase.

2014-11-24perf symbols: Move bfd_demangle stubbing to its only userArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-21/+0
We need to define bfd_demangle() to either a wrapper for cplus_demangle() or to a stub when NO_DEMANGLE is defined. That is at odds with using bfd.h for some other reason, as it defines bfd_demangle() and then if code that wants to use symbol.h, where the above stubbing/wrapping is done, and bfd.h for other reasons, we end up with a build error where bfd_demangle() is found to be redefined. Avoid that by moving the stubbing/wrapping to symbol-elf.c, that is the only user of such function. If we ever get to a point where there are more valid users, we can then introduce a header for that.

2014-11-05perf record: Do not save pathname in ./debug/.build-id directory for vmlinuxNamhyung Kim1-0/+1
When perf record finishes a session, it pre-processes samples in order to write build-id info from DSOs that had samples. During this process it'll call map__load() for the kernel map, and it ends up calling dso__load_vmlinux_path() which replaces dso->long_name. But this function checks kernel's build-id before searching vmlinux path so it'll end up with a cryptic name, the pathname for the entry in the ~/.debug cache, which can be confusing to users. This patch adds a flag to skip the build-id check during record, so that it'll have the original vmlinux path for the kernel dso->long_name, not the entry in the ~/.debug cache.
