* perf symbols: Avoid segfault in elf_strptrCody P Schafer2012-08-131-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we call elf_section_by_name() with a truncated elf image (ie: the file header indicates that the section headers are placed past the end of the file), elf_strptr() causes a segfault within libelf. Avoid this by checking that we can access the section string table properly. Should really be fixed in libelf/elfutils.

* perf symbols: only set vmlinux longname & mark loaded if really loadedCody P Schafer2012-08-131-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dso__load_vmlinux() uses the filename passed to it to directly set the dso long_name, which resulted in a use after free due to dso__load_vmlinux_path() treating 0 symbols as a load failure and subsequently freeing the contents of dso->long_name. Change dso__load_vmlinux() so that finding 0 symbols does not cause it to consider itself loaded, and do not set long_name in such a case.

* perf symbols: Remove unused 'end' arg in kallsyms parse cbCody P Schafer2012-08-133-13/+12Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kallsyms__parse() takes a callback that is called on every discovered symbol. As /proc/kallsyms does not supply symbol sizes, the callback was simply called with end=start, faking the symbol size to 1. All of the callbacks (there are 2) used in calls to kallsyms__parse() are _only_ used as callbacks for kallsyms__parse(). Given that kallsyms__parse() lacks real information about what end/length should be, don't make up a length in kallsyms__parse(). Instead have the callbacks handle guessing the length. Also relocate a comment regarding symbol creation to the callback which does symbol creation (kallsyms__parse() is not in general used to create symbols).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In kallsyms_parse() when calling process_symbol() (a callback argument to kallsyms_parse()), we pass start as both start & end (ie: start=start, end=start). In map__process_kallsym_symbol(), the length is calculated as 'end - start + 1', making the length 1, not 0. Essentially, start & end define an inclusive range.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables perf to use the DWARF unwind code. It extends the perf record '-g' option with following arguments: 'fp' - provides framepointer based user stack backtrace 'dwarf[,size]' - provides DWARF (libunwind) based user stack backtrace. The size specifies the size of the user stack dump. If omitted it is 8192 by default. If libunwind is found during the perf build, then the 'dwarf' argument becomes available for record command. The 'fp' stays as default option in any case. Examples: (perf compiled with libunwind) perf record -g dwarf ls - provides dwarf unwind with 8192 as stack dump size perf record -g dwarf,4096 ls - provides dwarf unwind with 4096 as stack dump size perf record -g -- ls perf record -g fp ls - provides frame pointer unwind Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Original-patch-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: "Frank Ch.

* perf: Add ability to attach user level registers dump to sampleJiri Olsa2012-08-104-3/+119
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introducing PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_USER sample type bit to trigger the dump of user level registers on sample. Registers we want to dump are specified by sample_regs_user bitmask. Only user level registers are dumped at the moment. Meaning the register values of the user space context as it was before the user entered the kernel for whatever reason (syscall, irq, exception, or a PMI happening in userspace). The layout of the sample_regs_user bitmap is described in asm/perf_regs.h for archs that support register dump. This is going to be useful to bring Dwarf CFI based stack unwinding on top of samples.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This brings a new API to help the selective dump of registers on event sampling, and its implementation for x86 arch. Added HAVE_PERF_REGS config option to determine if the architecture provides perf registers ABI. The information about desired registers will be passed in u64 mask. It's up to the architecture to map the registers into the mask bits. For the x86 arch implementation, both 32 and 64 bit registers bits are defined within single enum to ensure 64 bit system can provide register dump for compat task if needed in the future.

The output binary can do most of jobs but lacks (user level) symbol information - kernel symbols are still accessable thanks to the kallsyms. To build perf without libelf (elfutils), give NO_LIBELF=1 to make. For now, only 'perf probe' command is removed since it depends on libelf/libdw heavily.

For non-tracepoint events, this patch will try to find a function named "process_event" in the python script, and pass the event attribute, perf_sample, raw_data in format of raw string. And the python script can use "struct" module's unpack function to disasemble the needed info and process.

* perf evsel: Cache associated event_formatArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2012-08-0810-114/+70Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We already lookup the associated event_format when reading the perf.data header, so that we can cache the tracepoint name in evsel->name, so do it a little further and save the event_format itself, so that we can avoid relookups in tools that need to access it. Change the tools to take the most obvious advantage, when they were using pevent_find_event directly. More work is needed for further removing the need of a pointer to pevent, such as when asking for event field values ("common_pid" and the other common fields and per event_format fields). This is something that was planned but only got actually done when Andrey Wagin needed to do this lookup at perf_tool->sample() time, when we don't have access to pevent (session->pevent) to use with pevent_find_event().

* perf header: Set the tracepoint names on PERF_RECORD_HEADER_TRACING_DATAArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2012-08-081-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We only have access to pevent after processing that event, so set the tracepoint names there. Right now this isn't a problem as we're deferring resolving the tracepoint names to when we process samples, but in the next patches we will be doing it in advance, to avoid relookups, so do it earlier, as soon as we process the tracing data event.
