<content type='text'>
commit b59711e9b0d22fd47abfa00602fd8c365cdd3ab7 upstream.

During perf inject --jit, JIT_CODE_MOVE records were injecting MMAP records
with an incorrect filename. Specifically it was missing the ".so" suffix.

Further the JIT_CODE_LOAD record were silently truncating the
jr-&gt;load.code_index field to 32 bits before generating the filename.

Make both records emit the same filename based on the full 64 bit
code_index field.

commit 7d4c85b7035eb2f9ab217ce649dcd1bfaf0cacd3 upstream.

The 'test_dir' variable is assigned to the 'release' array which is
out-of-scope 3 lines later.

Extend the scope of the 'release' array so that an out-of-scope array
isn't accessed.

Bug detected by clang's address sanitizer.

[ Upstream commit b63fd11cced17fcb8e133def29001b0f6aaa5e06 ]

When using 'perf stat' with repeat and interval option, it shows wrong
values for events.

The wrong values will be shown for the first interval on the second and
subsequent repetitions.

Without the fix:

  # perf stat -r 3 -I 2000 -e faults -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 5

  #

prev_raw_counts is allocated when using intervals. This is used when
calculating the difference in the counts of events when using interval.

The current counts are stored in prev_raw_counts to calculate the
differences in the next iteration.

On the first interval of the second and subsequent repetitions,
prev_raw_counts would be the values stored in the last interval of the
previous repetitions, while the current counts will only be for the
first interval of the current repetition.

Hence there is a possibility of events showing up as big number.

Fix this by resetting prev_raw_counts whenever perf stat repeats the
command.

With the fix:

  # perf stat -r 3 -I 2000 -e faults -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 5

Committer notes:

This was broken since the cset introducing the --interval feature, i.e.
--repeat + --interval wasn't tested at that point, add the Fixes tag so
that automatic scripts can pick this up.

[ Upstream commit 815c1560bf8fd522b8d93a1d727868b910c1cc24 ]

With Java 11 there is no seperate JRE anymore.

Details:

  https://coderanch.com/t/701603/java/JRE-JDK

Therefore the detection of the JRE needs to be adapted.

This change works for s390 and x86.  I have not tested other platforms.

Committer testing:

Continues to work with the OpenJDK 8:

[ Upstream commit 9e6124d9d635957b56717f85219a88701617253f ]

Since add_probe_trace_event() can reuse tf-&gt;tevs[i] after calling
clear_probe_trace_event(), this can make perf-probe crash if the 1st
attempt of probe event finding fails to find an event argument, and the
2nd attempt fails to find probe point.

E.g.
  $ perf probe -D "task_pid_nr tsk"
  Failed to find 'tsk' in this function.
  Failed to get entry address of warn_bad_vsyscall
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Committer testing:

After the patch:

  $ perf probe -D "task_pid_nr tsk"
  Failed to find 'tsk' in this function.
  Failed to get entry address of warn_bad_vsyscall
  Failed to get entry address of signal_fault
  Failed to get entry address of show_signal
  Failed to get entry address of umip_printk
  Failed to get entry address of __bad_area_nosemaphore
  &lt;SNIP&gt;
  Failed to get entry address of sock_set_timeout
  Failed to get entry address of tcp_recvmsg
  Probe point 'task_pid_nr' not found.
    Error: Failed to add events.

<title>perf stat: Fix a segmentation fault when using repeat forever</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 443f2d5ba13d65ccfd879460f77941875159d154 upstream.

Observe a segmentation fault when 'perf stat' is asked to repeat forever
with the interval option.

Without fix:

  # perf stat -r 0 -I 5000 -e cycles -a sleep 10
  #           time             counts unit events
       5.000211692  3,13,89,82,34,157      cycles
      10.000380119  1,53,98,52,22,294      cycles
      10.040467280       17,16,79,265      cycles
  Segmentation fault

This problem was only observed when we use forever option aka -r 0 and
works with limited repeats. Calling print_counter with ts being set to
NULL, is not a correct option when interval is set. Hence avoid
print_counter(NULL,..)  if interval is set.

With fix:

  # perf stat -r 0 -I 5000 -e cycles -a sleep 10
   #           time             counts unit events
       5.019866622  3,15,14,43,08,697      cycles

commit 0216234c2eed1367a318daeb9f4a97d8217412a0 upstream.

We release wrong pointer on error path in cpu_cache_level__read
function, leading to segfault:

  (gdb) r record ls

<title>perf evlist: Use unshare(CLONE_FS) in sb threads to let setns(CLONE_NEWNS) work</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3172fe44eb840662b63a6d62e24cdcebc938e0eb</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit b397f8468fa27f08b83b348ffa56a226f72453af ]

When we started using a thread to catch the PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT meta
data events to then ask the kernel for further info (BTF, etc) for BPF
programs shortly after they get loaded, we forgot to use
unshare(CLONE_FS) as was done in:

  868a832918f6 ("perf top: Support lookup of symbols in other mount namespaces.")

Do it so that we can enter the namespaces to read the build-ids at the
end of a 'perf record' session for the DSOs that had hits.

Before:

Starting a 'stress-ng --cpus 8' inside a container and then, outside the
container running:

  # perf record -a --namespaces sleep 5
  # perf buildid-list | grep stress-ng
  #

We would end up with a 'perf.data' file that had no entry in its
build-id table for the /usr/bin/stress-ng binary inside the container
that got tons of PERF_RECORD_SAMPLEs.

After:

  # perf buildid-list | grep stress-ng
  f2ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29 /usr/bin/stress-ng
  #

Then its just a matter of making sure that that binary debuginfo package
gets available in a place that 'perf report' will look at build-id keyed
ELF files, which, in my case, on a f30 notebook, was a matter of
installing the debuginfo file for the distro used in the container,
fedora 31:

  # rpm -ivh http://fedora.c3sl.ufpr.br/linux/development/31/Everything/x86_64/debug/tree/Packages/s/stress-ng-debuginfo-0.07.29-10.fc31.x86_64.rpm

Then, because perf currently looks for those debuginfo files (richer ELF
symtab) inside that namespace (look at the setns calls):

  openat(AT_FDCWD, "/proc/self/ns/mnt", O_RDONLY) = 137
  openat(AT_FDCWD, "/proc/13169/ns/mnt", O_RDONLY) = 139
  setns(139, CLONE_NEWNS)                 = 0
  stat("/usr/bin/stress-ng", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=3065416, ...}) = 0
  openat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/bin/stress-ng", O_RDONLY) = 140
  fcntl(140, F_GETFD)                     = 0
  fstat(140, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=3065416, ...}) = 0
  mmap(NULL, 3065416, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 140, 0) = 0x7ff2fdc5b000
  munmap(0x7ff2fdc5b000, 3065416)         = 0
  close(140)                              = 0
  stat("stress-ng-0.07.29-10.fc31.x86_64.debug", 0x7fff45d71260) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
  stat("/usr/bin/stress-ng-0.07.29-10.fc31.x86_64.debug", 0x7fff45d71260) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
  stat("/usr/bin/.debug/stress-ng-0.07.29-10.fc31.x86_64.debug", 0x7fff45d71260) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
  stat("/usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/stress-ng-0.07.29-10.fc31.x86_64.debug", 0x7fff45d71260) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
  stat("/root/.debug/.build-id/f2/ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29", 0x7fff45d711e0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

To only then go back to the "host" namespace to look just in the users's
~/.debug cache:

  setns(137, CLONE_NEWNS)                 = 0
  chdir("/root")                          = 0
  close(137)                              = 0
  close(139)                              = 0
  stat("/root/.debug/.build-id/f2/ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29/elf", 0x7fff45d732e0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

It continues to fail to resolve symbols:

  # perf report | grep stress-ng | head -5
     9.50%  stress-ng-cpu    stress-ng    [.] 0x0000000000021ac1
     8.58%  stress-ng-cpu    stress-ng    [.] 0x0000000000021ab4
     8.51%  stress-ng-cpu    stress-ng    [.] 0x0000000000021489
     7.17%  stress-ng-cpu    stress-ng    [.] 0x00000000000219b6
     3.93%  stress-ng-cpu    stress-ng    [.] 0x0000000000021478
  #

To overcome that we use:

  # perf buildid-cache -v --add /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/stress-ng-0.07.29-10.fc31.x86_64.debug
  Adding f2ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29 /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/stress-ng-0.07.29-10.fc31.x86_64.debug: Ok
  #
  # ls -la /root/.debug/.build-id/f2/ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29/elf
  -rw-r--r--. 3 root root 2401184 Jul 27 07:03 /root/.debug/.build-id/f2/ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29/elf
  # file /root/.debug/.build-id/f2/ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29/elf
  /root/.debug/.build-id/f2/ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29/elf: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter \004, BuildID[sha1]=f2ed02c68341183a124b9b0f6e2e6c493c465b29, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, with debug_info, not stripped, too many notes (256)
  #

Now it finally works:

  # perf report | grep stress-ng | head -5
    23.59%  stress-ng-cpu    stress-ng    [.] ackermann
    23.33%  stress-ng-cpu    stress-ng    [.] is_prime
    17.36%  stress-ng-cpu    stress-ng    [.] stress_cpu_sieve
     6.08%  stress-ng-cpu    stress-ng    [.] stress_cpu_correlate
     3.55%  stress-ng-cpu    stress-ng    [.] queens_try
  #

I'll make sure that it looks for the build-id keyed files in both the
"host" namespace (the namespace the user running 'perf record' was a the
time of the recording) and in the container namespace, as it shouldn't
matter where a content based key lookup finds the ELF file to use in
resolving symbols, etc.
