perf symbols: Fix annotation of vdso
Older kernels attempt to prelink vdso to its virtual address. To permit

User visible changes:
- Allow selecting the type of callchains per event, including disabling
callchains in all but one entry in an event list, to save space, and also
to ask for the callchains collected in one event to be used in other
events. (Kan Liang)
- Beautify more syscall arguments in 'perf trace': (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- A bunch more translate file/pathnames from pointers to strings.
- Convert numbers to strings for the 'keyctl' syscall 'option' arg.
- Add missing 'clockid' entries.
- Fix 'perf probe -L sys_*' as it was not showing all the source code for
syscall functions in the kernel. (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Make ESC unzoom as well in the hists browser, i.e. in 'report' and 'top',
as we're considering repurposing the right and left arrow keys to use in
horizontal scrolling, i.e. leave just ESC to be used for what <- works
now, and ENTER for what -> does (they are already aliases for ages).
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Infrastructure fixes:
- Check for SRCLINE_UNKNOWN case in "srcfile" processing (Andi Kleen)
- Wrap the slsmg_{printf,write_nstring} slang functions behind ui_browser, so
that we can make the ui_browser based browsers (annotate, menus, hists, etc) UI
library agnostic and usable with multiple backends (slang now, GTK+ and others
in the future, maybe) (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

perf probe: Fix to show lines of sys_ functions correctly
"perf probe --lines sys_poll" shows only the first line of sys_poll,
because the SYSCALL_DEFINE macro:
----
SYSCALL_DEFINE*(foo,...)
{
body;
}
----
is expanded as below (on debuginfo)
----
static inline int SYSC_foo(...)
{
body;
}
int SyS_foo(...) <- is an alias of sys_foo.
{
return SYSC_foo(...);
}
----
So, "perf probe --lines sys_foo" decodes SyS_foo function and it also skips
inlined functions(SYSC_foo) inside the target function because those functions
are usually defined somewhere else.
To fix this issue, this fix checks whether the inlined function is defined at
the same point of the target function, and if so, it doesn't skip the inline
function.

User visible changes:
- Introduce 'srcfile' sort key: (Andi Kleen)
# perf record -F 10000 usleep 1
# perf report --stdio --dsos '[kernel.vmlinux]' -s srcfile
<SNIP>
# Overhead Source File
26.49% copy_page_64.S
5.49% signal.c
0.51% msr.h
#
It can be combined with other fields, for instance, experiment with
'-s srcfile,symbol'.
There are some oddities in some distros and with some specific DSOs, being
investigated, so your mileage may vary.
- Update the column width for the "srcline" sort key (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Support per-event 'freq' term: (Namhyung Kim)
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,freq=1234/',cycles -c 1000 sleep 1
$ perf evlist -F
cpu/instructions,freq=1234/: sample_freq=1234
cycles: sample_period=1000

Infrastructure changes:
- Move perf_counts struct and functions into separate object (Jiri Olsa)
- Unset perf_event_attr::freq when period term is set (Jiri Olsa)
- Move callchain option parsing code to util.c (Kan Liang)

perf/ring-buffer: Clarify the use of page::private for high-order AUX allocations
A question [1] was raised about the use of page::private in AUX buffer
allocations, so let's add a clarification about its intended use.
The private field and flag are used by perf's rb_alloc_aux() path to
tell the pmu driver the size of each high-order allocation, so that the
driver can program those appropriately into its hardware. This only
matters for PMUs that don't support hardware scatter tables. Otherwise,
every page in the buffer is just a page.
This patch adds a comment about the private field to the AUX buffer
allocation path.

Currently we only update the sysfs event files per available MSR, we
didn't actually disallow creating unlisted events.
Rework things such that the dectection, sysfs listing and event

Sadly it appears it's impossible to probe R/O MSRs under virt. This
means we have to do the full model table to avoid listing all MSRs all

The root cause is that CPU_UP_PREPARE is completely the wrong notifier
action from which to access cpu_data(), because smp_store_cpu_info()
won't have been executed by the target CPU at that point, which in turn
means that ->x86_cache_max_rmid and ->x86_cache_occ_scale haven't been
filled out.
Instead let's invoke our handler from CPU_STARTING and rename it
appropriately.

perf tools: Auto detecting kernel include options
To help user find correct kernel include options, this patch extracts
them from kbuild system by an embedded script kinc_fetch_script, which
creates a temporary directory, generates Makefile and an empty dummy.o
then use the Makefile to fetch $(NOSTDINC_FLAGS), $(LINUXINCLUDE) and
$(EXTRA_CFLAGS) options. The result is passed to compiler script using
'KERNEL_INC_OPTIONS' environment variable.
Because options from kbuild contains relative path like
'Iinclude/generated/uapi', the work directory must be changed. This is
done by previous patch.

bpf tools: Relocate eBPF programs
If an eBPF program accesses a map, LLVM generates a load instruction
which loads an absolute address into a register, like this:
ld_64 r1, <MCOperand Expr:(mymap)>
...
call 2
That ld_64 instruction will be recorded in relocation section.
To enable the usage of that map, relocation must be done by replacing
the immediate value by real map file descriptor so it can be found by
eBPF map functions.
This patch to the relocation work based on information collected by
patches:
'bpf tools: Collect symbol table from SHT_SYMTAB section',
'bpf tools: Collect relocation sections from SHT_REL sections'
and
'bpf tools: Record map accessing instructions for each program'.
For each instruction which needs relocation, it inject corresponding
file descriptor to imm field. As a part of protocol, src_reg is set to
BPF_PSEUDO_MAP_FD to notify kernel this is a map loading instruction.
This is the final part of map relocation patch. The principle of map
relocation is described in commit message of 'bpf tools: Collect symbol
table from SHT_SYMTAB section'.

bpf tools: Collect symbol table from SHT_SYMTAB section
This patch collects symbols section. This section is useful when linking
BPF maps.
What 'bpf_map_xxx()' functions actually require are map's file
descriptors (and the internal verifier converts fds into pointers to
'struct bpf_map'), which we don't know when compiling. Therefore, we
should make compiler generate a 'ldr_64 r1, <imm>' instruction, and
fill the 'imm' field with the actual file descriptor when loading in
libbpf.
BPF programs should be written in this way:
struct bpf_map_def SEC("maps") my_map = {
.type = BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH,
.key_size = sizeof(unsigned long),
.value_size = sizeof(unsigned long),
.max_entries = 1000000,
};
SEC("my_func=sys_write")
int my_func(void *ctx)
{
...
bpf_map_update_elem(&my_map, &key, &value, BPF_ANY);
...
}
Compiler should convert '&my_map' into a 'ldr_64, r1, <imm>'
instruction, where imm should be the address of 'my_map'. According to
the address, libbpf knows which map it actually referenced, and then
fills the imm field with the 'fd' of that map created by it.
However, since we never really 'link' the object file, the imm field is
only a record in relocation section. Therefore libbpf should do the
relocation:
1. In relocation section (type == SHT_REL), positions of each such
'ldr_64' instruction are recorded with a reference of an entry in
symbol table (SHT_SYMTAB);
2. From records in symbol table we can find the indics of map
variables.
Libbpf first record SHT_SYMTAB and positions of each instruction which
required bu such operation. Then create file descriptor. Finally, after
map creation complete, replace the imm field.
This is the first patch of BPF map related stuff. It records SHT_SYMTAB
into object's efile field for further use.

bpf tools: Introduce 'bpf' library and add bpf feature check
This is the first patch of libbpf. The goal of libbpf is to create a
standard way for accessing eBPF object files. This patch creates
'Makefile' and 'Build' for it, allows 'make' to build libbpf.a and
libbpf.so, 'make install' to put them into proper directories.
Most part of Makefile is borrowed from traceevent.
Before building, it checks the existence of libelf in Makefile, and deny
to build if not found. Instead of throwing an error if libelf not found,
the error raises in a phony target "elfdep". This design is to ensure
'make clean' still workable even if libelf is not found.
Because libbpf requires 'kern_version' field set for 'union bpf_attr'
(bpfdep" is used for that dependency), Kernel BPF API is also checked
by intruducing a new feature check 'bpf' into tools/build/feature,
which checks the existence and version of linux/bpf.h. When building
libbpf, it searches that file from include/uapi/linux in kernel source
tree (controlled by FEATURE_CHECK_CFLAGS-bpf). Since it searches kernel
source tree it reside, installing of newest kernel headers is not
required, except we are trying to port these files to an old kernel.
To avoid checking that file when perf building, the newly introduced
'bpf' feature check doesn't added into FEATURE_TESTS and
FEATURE_DISPLAY by default in tools/build/Makefile.feature, but added
into libbpf's specific.

bpf: Use correct #ifdef controller for trace_call_bpf()
Commit
e1abf2cc8d5d80b41c4419368ec743ccadbb131e ("bpf: Fix the build on
BPF_SYSCALL=y && !CONFIG_TRACING kernels, make it more configurable")
updated the building condition of bpf_trace.o from CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL
to CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS, but the corresponding #ifdef controller in
trace_events.h for trace_call_bpf() was not changed. Which, in theory,
is incorrect.
With current Kconfigs, we can create a .config with CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL=y
and CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS=n by unselecting CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENT and
selecting CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL. With these options, trace_call_bpf() will
be defined as an extern function, but if anyone calls it a symbol missing
error will be triggered since bpf_trace.o was not built.
This patch changes the #ifdef controller for trace_call_bpf() from
CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL to CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS. I'll show its correctness:
Before this patch:
BPF_SYSCALL BPF_EVENTS trace_call_bpf bpf_trace.o
y y normal compiled
n n inline not compiled
y n normal not compiled (incorrect)
n y impossible (BPF_EVENTS depends on BPF_SYSCALL)
After this patch:
BPF_SYSCALL BPF_EVENTS trace_call_bpf bpf_trace.o
y y normal compiled
n n inline not compiled
y n inline not compiled (fixed)
n y impossible (BPF_EVENTS depends on BPF_SYSCALL)
So this patch doesn't break anything. QED.

perf trace: Deref sys_enter pointer args with contents from probe:vfs_getname
To work like strace and dereference syscall pointer args we need to
insert probes (or tracepoints) right after we copy those bytes from
userspace.
Since we're formatting the syscall args at raw_syscalls:sys_enter time,
we need to have a formatter that just stores the position where, later,
when we get the probe:vfs_getname, we can insert the pointer contents.
Now, if a probe:vfs_getname with this format is in place:
# perf probe -l
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72@/home/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname)
That was, in this case, put in place with:
# perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=filename:string'
Added new event:
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=filename:string)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1
#
Then 'perf trace' will notice that and do the pointer -> contents
expansion:
# trace -e open touch /tmp/bla
0.165 (0.010 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.195 (0.011 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /lib64/libc.so.6, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.512 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.582 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /tmp/bla, flags: CREAT|NOCTTY|NONBLOCK|WRONLY, mode: 438) = 3
#
Roughly equivalent to strace's output:
# strace -rT -e open touch /tmp/bla
0.000000 open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000039>
0.000317 open("/lib64/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000102>

0.000641 +++ exited with 0 +++
#
Now we need to either look for at all syscalls that are marked as
pointers and have some well known names ("filename", "pathname", etc)
and set the arg formatter to the one used for the "open" syscall in this
patch.
This implementation works for syscalls with just a string being copied
from userspace, for matching syscalls with more than one string being
copied via the same probe/trace point (vfs_getname) we need to extend
the vfs_getname probe spec to include the pointer too, but there are
some problems with that in 'perf probe' or the kernel kprobes code, need
