tools build: Remove needless libpython-version feature check that breaks test-all fast path

2021-12-07T00:57:53Z

Since 66dfdff03d196e51 ("perf tools: Add Python 3 support") we don't use the tools/build/feature/test-libpython-version.c version in any Makefile feature check: $ find tools/ -type f | xargs grep feature-libpython-version $ The only place where this was used was removed in 66dfdff03d196e51: - ifneq ($(feature-libpython-version), 1) - $(warning Python 3 is not yet supported; please set) - $(warning PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG appropriately.) - $(warning If you also have Python 2 installed, then) - $(warning try something like:) - $(warning $(and ,)) - $(warning $(and ,) make PYTHON=python2) - $(warning $(and ,)) - $(warning Otherwise, disable Python support entirely:) - $(warning $(and ,)) - $(warning $(and ,) make NO_LIBPYTHON=1) - $(warning $(and ,)) - $(error $(and ,)) - else - LDFLAGS += $(PYTHON_EMBED_LDFLAGS) - EXTLIBS += $(PYTHON_EMBED_LIBADD) - LANG_BINDINGS += $(obj-perf)python/perf.so - $(call detected,CONFIG_LIBPYTHON) - endif And nowadays we either build with PYTHON=python3 or just install the python3 devel packages and perf will build against it. But the leftover feature-libpython-version check made the fast path feature detection to break in all cases except when python2 devel files were installed: $ rpm -qa | grep python.*devel python3-devel-3.9.7-1.fc34.x86_64 $ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ; $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin make: Entering directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf' BUILD: Doing 'make -j32' parallel build HOSTCC /tmp/build/perf/fixdep.o $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output In file included from test-all.c:18: test-libpython-version.c:5:10: error: #error 5 | #error | ^~~~~ $ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep python libpython3.9.so.1.0 => /lib64/libpython3.9.so.1.0 (0x00007fda6dbcf000) $ As python3 is the norm these days, fix this by just removing the unused feature-libpython-version feature check, making the test-all fast path to work with the common case.

tools build: Fix removal of feature-sync-compare-and-swap feature detection

2021-11-18T13:08:07Z

The patch removing the feature-sync-compare-and-swap feature detection didn't remove the call to main_test_sync_compare_and_swap(), making the 'test-all' case fail an all the feature tests to be performed individually: $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output In file included from test-all.c:18: test-libpython-version.c:5:10: error: #error 5 | #error | ^~~~~ test-all.c: In function ‘main’: test-all.c:203:9: error: implicit declaration of function ‘main_test_sync_compare_and_swap’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] 203 | main_test_sync_compare_and_swap(argc, argv); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors $ Fix it, now to figure out what is that test-libpython-version.c problem...

perf tools: Enable libtraceevent dynamic linking

2021-04-29T13:31:00Z

Currently we support only static linking with kernel's libtraceevent (tools/lib/traceevent). This patch adds libtraceevent package detection and support to link perf with it dynamically. The libtraceevent package status is displayed with: $ make VF=1 LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC=1 ... ... libtraceevent: [ on ] Default behavior remains the same (static linking).

Pull perf tool updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: "New features: - Support instruction latency in 'perf report', with both memory latency (weight) and instruction latency information, users can locate expensive load instructions and understand time spent in different stages. - Extend 'perf c2c' to display the number of loads which were blocked by data or address conflict. - Add 'perf stat' support for L2 topdown events in systems such as Intel's Sapphire rapids server. - Add support for PERF_SAMPLE_CODE_PAGE_SIZE in various tools, as a sort key, for instance: perf report --stdio --sort=comm,symbol,code_page_size - New 'perf daemon' command to run long running sessions while providing a way to control the enablement of events without restarting a traditional 'perf record' session. - Enable counting events for BPF programs in 'perf stat' just like for other targets (tid, cgroup, cpu, etc), e.g.: # perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles -b 254 -I 1000 1.487903822 115,200 ref-cycles 1.487903822 86,012 cycles 2.489147029 80,560 ref-cycles 2.489147029 73,784 cycles ^C The example above counts 'cycles' and 'ref-cycles' of BPF program of id 254. It is similar to bpftool-prog-profile command, but more flexible. - Support the new layout for PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 to carry the DSO build-id using infrastructure generalised from the eBPF subsystem, removing the need for traversing the perf.data file to collect build-ids at the end of 'perf record' sessions and helping with long running sessions where binaries can get replaced in updates, leading to possible mis-resolution of symbols. - Support filtering by hex address in 'perf script'. - Support DSO filter in 'perf script', like in other perf tools. - Add namespaces support to 'perf inject' - Add support for SDT (Dtrace Style Markers) events on ARM64. perf record: - Fix handling of eventfd() when draining a buffer in 'perf record'. - Improvements to the generation of metadata events for pre-existing threads (mmaps, comm, etc), speeding up the work done at the start of system wide or per CPU 'perf record' sessions. Hardware tracing: - Initial support for tracing KVM with Intel PT. - Intel PT fixes for IPC - Support Intel PT PSB (synchronization packets) events. - Automatically group aux-output events to overcome --filter syntax. - Enable PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_SRC on ARMs SPE. - Update ARM's CoreSight hardware tracing OpenCSD library to v1.0.0. perf annotate TUI: - Fix handling of 'k' ("show line number") hotkey - Fix jump parsing for C++ code. perf probe: - Add protection to avoid endless loop. cgroups: - Avoid reading cgroup mountpoint multiple times, caching it. - Fix handling of cgroup v1/v2 in mixed hierarchy. Symbol resolving: - Add OCaml symbol demangling. - Further fixes for handling PE executables when using perf with Wine and .exe/.dll files. - Fix 'perf unwind' DSO handling. - Resolve symbols against debug file first, to deal with artifacts related to LTO. - Fix gap between kernel end and module start on powerpc. Reporting tools: - The DSO filter shouldn't show samples in unresolved maps. - Improve debuginfod support in various tools. build ids: - Fix 16-byte build ids in 'perf buildid-cache', add a 'perf test' entry for that case. perf test: - Support for PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT. - Add test case for PERF_SAMPLE_CODE_PAGE_SIZE. - Shell based tests for 'perf daemon's commands ('start', 'stop, 'reconfig', 'list', etc). - ARM cs-etm 'perf test' fixes. - Add parse-metric memory bandwidth testcase. Compiler related: - Fix 'perf probe' kretprobe issue caused by gcc 11 bug when used with -fpatchable-function-entry. - Fix ARM64 build with gcc 11's -Wformat-overflow. - Fix unaligned access in sample parsing test. - Fix printf conversion specifier for IP addresses on arm64, s390 and powerpc. Arch specific: - Support exposing Performance Monitor Counter SPRs as part of extended regs on powerpc. - Add JSON 'perf stat' metrics for ARM64's imx8mp, imx8mq and imx8mn DDR, fix imx8mm ones. - Fix common and uarch events for ARM64's A76 and Ampere eMag" * tag 'perf-tools-for-v5.12-2020-02-19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux: (148 commits) perf buildid-cache: Don't skip 16-byte build-ids perf buildid-cache: Add test for 16-byte build-id perf symbol: Remove redundant libbfd checks perf test: Output the sub testing result in cs-etm perf test: Suppress logs in cs-etm testing perf tools: Fix arm64 build error with gcc-11 perf intel-pt: Add documentation for tracing virtual machines perf intel-pt: Split VM-Entry and VM-Exit branches perf intel-pt: Adjust sample flags for VM-Exit perf intel-pt: Allow for a guest kernel address filter perf intel-pt: Support decoding of guest kernel perf machine: Factor out machine__idle_thread() perf machine: Factor out machines__find_guest() perf intel-pt: Amend decoder to track the NR flag perf intel-pt: Retain the last PIP packet payload as is perf intel_pt: Add vmlaunch and vmresume as branches perf script: Add branch types for VM-Entry and VM-Exit perf auxtrace: Automatically group aux-output events perf test: Fix unaligned access in sample parsing test perf tools: Support arch specific PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT processing ...

tools: Factor Clang, LLC and LLVM utils definitions

2021-01-29T00:25:34Z

When dealing with BPF/BTF/pahole and DWARF v5 I wanted to build bpftool. While looking into the source code I found duplicate assignments in misc tools for the LLVM eco system, e.g. clang and llvm-objcopy. Move the Clang, LLC and/or LLVM utils definitions to tools/scripts/Makefile.include file and add missing includes where needed. Honestly, I was inspired by the commit c8a950d0d3b9 ("tools: Factor HOSTCC, HOSTLD, HOSTAR definitions"). I tested with bpftool and perf on Debian/testing AMD64 and LLVM/Clang v11.1.0-rc1. Build instructions: [ make and make-options ] MAKE="make V=1" MAKE_OPTS="HOSTCC=clang HOSTCXX=clang++ HOSTLD=ld.lld CC=clang LD=ld.lld LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1" MAKE_OPTS="$MAKE_OPTS PAHOLE=/opt/pahole/bin/pahole" [ clean-up ] $MAKE $MAKE_OPTS -C tools/ clean [ bpftool ] $MAKE $MAKE_OPTS -C tools/bpf/bpftool/ [ perf ] PYTHON=python3 $MAKE $MAKE_OPTS -C tools/perf/ I was careful with respecting the user's wish to override custom compiler, linker, GNU/binutils and/or LLVM utils settings.
