perf test shell: Use a fallback to get the pathname in vfs_getname

2019-02-20T09:25:39Z

[ Upstream commit 03fa483821c0b4db7c2b1453d3332f397d82313f ] Some kernels, like 4.19.13-300.fc29.x86_64 in fedora 29, fail with the existing probe definition asking for the contents of result->name, working when we ask for the 'filename' variable instead, so add a fallback to that. Now those tests are back working on fedora 29 systems with that kernel: # perf test vfs_getname 65: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Ok 66: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Ok 67: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Ok # Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-klt3n0i58dfqttveti09q3fi@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

perf report: Fix wrong iteration count in --branch-history

2019-02-20T09:25:39Z

[ Upstream commit a3366db06bb656cef2e03f30f780d93059bcc594 ] By calculating the removed loops, we can get the iteration count. But the iteration count could be reported incorrectly, reporting impossibly high counts. That's because previous code uses the number of removed LBR entries for the iteration count. That's not good. Fix this by increasing the iteration count when a loop is detected. When matching the chain, the iteration count would be added up, finally we need to compute the average value when printing out. For example, $ perf report --branch-history --stdio --no-children Before: ---f2 +0 | |--33.62%--f1 +9 (cycles:1) | f1 +0 | main +22 (cycles:1) | main +17 | main +38 (cycles:1) | main +27 | f1 +26 (cycles:1) | f1 +24 | f2 +27 (cycles:7) | f2 +0 | f1 +19 (cycles:1) | f1 +14 | f2 +27 (cycles:11) | f2 +0 | f1 +9 (cycles:1 iter:2968 avg_cycles:3) | f1 +0 | main +22 (cycles:1 iter:2968 avg_cycles:3) | main +17 | main +38 (cycles:1 iter:2968 avg_cycles:3) 2968 is an impossible high iteration count and avg_cycles is too small. After: ---f2 +0 | |--33.62%--f1 +9 (cycles:1) | f1 +0 | main +22 (cycles:1) | main +17 | main +38 (cycles:1) | main +27 | f1 +26 (cycles:1) | f1 +24 | f2 +27 (cycles:7) | f2 +0 | f1 +19 (cycles:1) | f1 +14 | f2 +27 (cycles:11) | f2 +0 | f1 +9 (cycles:1 iter:1 avg_cycles:23) | f1 +0 | main +22 (cycles:1 iter:1 avg_cycles:23) | main +17 | main +38 (cycles:1 iter:1 avg_cycles:23) avg_cycles:23 is the average cycles of this iteration.

perf tests evsel-tp-sched: Fix bitwise operator

2019-02-12T18:47:26Z

commit 489338a717a0dfbbd5a3fabccf172b78f0ac9015 upstream. Notice that the use of the bitwise OR operator '|' always leads to true in this particular case, which seems a bit suspicious due to the context in which this expression is being used. Fix this by using bitwise AND operator '&' instead. This bug was detected with the help of Coccinelle. Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R.

perf python: Do not force closing original perf descriptor in evlist.get_pollfd()

2019-02-12T18:47:18Z

[ Upstream commit a389aece97938966616ce0336466b98b0351ef10 ] Ondřej reported that when compiled with python3, the python extension regresses in evlist.get_pollfd function behaviour. The evlist.get_pollfd function creates file objects from evlist's fds and returns them in a list. The python3 version also sets them to 'close the original descriptor' when the object dies (is closed), by passing True via the 'closefd' arg in the PyFile_FromFd call. The python's closefd doc says: If closefd is False, the underlying file descriptor will be kept open when the file is closed. That's why the following line in python3 closes all evlist fds: evlist.get_pollfd() the returned list is immediately destroyed and that takes down the original events fds. Passing closefd as False to PyFile_FromFd to fix this.

perf build: Don't unconditionally link the libbfd feature test to -liberty and -lz

2019-02-12T18:47:16Z

[ Upstream commit 14541b1e7e723859ff2c75c6fc10cdbbec6b8c34 ] Current libbfd feature test unconditionally links against -liberty and -lz. While it's required on some systems (e.g. opensuse), it's completely unnecessary on the others, where only -lbdf is sufficient (debian). This patch streamlines (and renames) the following feature checks: feature-libbfd - only link against -lbfd (debian), see commit 2cf9040714f3 ("perf tools: Fix bfd dependency libraries detection") feature-libbfd-liberty - link against -lbfd and -liberty feature-libbfd-liberty-z - link against -lbfd, -liberty and -lz (opensuse), see commit 280e7c48c3b8 ("perf tools: fix BFD detection on opensuse") (feature-liberty{,-z} were renamed to feature-libbfd-liberty{,z} for clarity) The main motivation is to fix this feature test for bpftool which is currently broken on debian (libbfd feature shows OFF, but we still unconditionally link against -lbfd and it works). Tested on debian with only -lbfd installed (without -liberty); I'd appreciate if somebody on the other systems can test this new detection method.

perf probe: Fix unchecked usage of strncpy()

2019-02-12T18:47:11Z

[ Upstream commit bef0b8970f27da5ca223e522a174d03e2587761d ] The strncpy() function may leave the destination string buffer unterminated, better use strlcpy() that we have a __weak fallback implementation for systems without it. In this case the 'target' buffer is coming from a list of build-ids that are expected to have a len of at most (SBUILD_ID_SIZE - 1) chars, so probably we're safe, but since we're using strncpy() here, use strlcpy() instead to provide the intended safety checking without the using the problematic strncpy() function.
