perf/ftrace: Fix double traces of perf on ftrace:function

2017-08-29T11:29:29Z

When running perf on the ftrace:function tracepoint, there is a bug which can be reproduced by: perf record -e ftrace:function -a sleep 20 & perf record -e ftrace:function ls perf script ls 10304 [005] 171.853235: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853237: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853239: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853240: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853242: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853244: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns We can see that all the function traces are doubled. The problem is caused by the inconsistency of the register function perf_ftrace_event_register() with the probe function perf_ftrace_function_call(). The former registers one probe for every perf_event. And the latter handles all perf_events on the current cpu. So when two perf_events on the current cpu, the traces of them will be doubled. So this patch adds an extra parameter "event" for perf_tp_event, only send sample data to this event when it's not NULL.

perf/x86: Fix RDPMC vs. mm_struct tracking

2017-08-10T10:01:08Z

Vince reported the following rdpmc() testcase failure: > Failing test case: > > fd=perf_event_open(); > addr=mmap(fd); > exec() // without closing or unmapping the event > fd=perf_event_open(); > addr=mmap(fd); > rdpmc() // GPFs due to rdpmc being disabled The problem is of course that exec() plays tricks with what is current->mm, only destroying the old mappings after having installed the new mm. Fix this confusion by passing along vma->vm_mm instead of relying on current->mm.

perf, bpf: Add BPF support to all perf_event types

2017-06-05T01:58:01Z

Allow BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT program types to attach to all perf_event types, including HW_CACHE, RAW, and dynamic pmu events. Only tracepoint/kprobe events are treated differently which require BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT/BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE program types accordingly. Also add support for reading all event counters using bpf_perf_event_read() helper. Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

perf/tracing/cpuhotplug: Fix locking order

2017-05-26T08:10:44Z

perf, tracing, kprobes and jump_labels have a gazillion of ways to create dependency lock chains. Some of those involve nested invocations of get_online_cpus(). The conversion of the hotplug locking to a percpu rwsem requires to avoid such nested calls. sys_perf_event_open() protects most of the syscall logic against cpu hotplug. This causes nested calls and lock inversions versus ftrace and kprobes in various interesting ways. It's impossible to move the hotplug locking to the outer end of all call chains in the involved facilities, so the hotplug protection in sys_perf_event_open() needs to be solved differently. Introduce 'pmus_mutex' which protects a perf private online cpumask. This mutex is taken when the mask is updated in the cpu hotplug callbacks and can be taken in sys_perf_event_open() to protect the swhash setup/teardown code and when the final judgement about a valid event has to be made.

x86/events/amd/iommu: Add IOMMU-specific hw_perf_event struct

Current AMD IOMMU perf PMU inappropriately uses the hardware struct inside the union in struct hw_perf_event, extra_reg in particular.

perf/core: Keep AUX flags in the output handle

2017-03-16T08:51:10Z

In preparation for adding more flags to perf AUX records, introduce a separate API for setting the flags for a session, rather than appending more bool arguments to perf_aux_output_end. This allows to set each flag at the time a corresponding condition is detected, instead of tracking it in each driver's private state.

perf: Add PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES to include namespaces related info

2017-03-13T18:57:41Z

With the advert of container technologies like docker, that depend on namespaces for isolation, there is a need for tracing support for namespaces. This patch introduces new PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES event for recording namespaces related info. By recording info for every namespace, it is left to userspace to take a call on the definition of a container and trace containers by updating perf tool accordingly. Each namespace has a combination of device and inode numbers. Though every namespace has the same device number currently, that may change in future to avoid the need for a namespace of namespaces. Considering such possibility, record both device and inode numbers separately for each namespace.

perf/core: Allow kernel filters on CPU events

2017-02-10T08:08:09Z

While supporting file-based address filters for CPU events requires some extra context switch handling, kernel address filters are easy, since the kernel mapping is preserved across address spaces. It is also useful as it permits tracing scheduling paths of the kernel. This patch allows setting up kernel filters for CPU events.

perf/core: Remove perf_cpu_context::unique_pmu

2017-01-30T11:01:14Z

cpuctx->unique_pmu was originally introduced as a way to identify cpuctxs with shared pmus in order to avoid visiting the same cpuctx more than once in a for_each_pmu loop. cpuctx->unique_pmu == cpuctx->pmu in non-software task contexts since they have only one pmu per cpuctx. Since perf_pmu_sched_task() is only called in hw contexts, this patch replaces cpuctx->unique_pmu by cpuctx->pmu in it. The change above, together with the previous patch in this series, removed the remaining uses of cpuctx->unique_pmu, so we remove it altogether.
