uprobes: Add exports for module use
The original pull message for uprobes (commit
654443e2) noted:
This tree includes uprobes support in 'perf probe' - but SystemTap
(and other tools) can take advantage of user probe points as well.
In order to actually be usable in module-based tools like SystemTap, the
interface needs to be exported. This patch first adds the obvious
exports for uprobe_register and uprobe_unregister. Then it also adds
one for task_user_regset_view, which is necessary to get the correct
state of userspace registers.

uprobes: Teach handler_chain() to filter out the probed task
Currrently the are 2 problems with pre-filtering:
1. It is not possible to add/remove a task (mm) after uprobe_register()
2. A forked child inherits all breakpoints and uprobe_consumer can not
control this.
This patch does the first step to improve the filtering. handler_chain()
removes the breakpoints installed by this uprobe from current->mm if all
handlers return UPROBE_HANDLER_REMOVE.
Note that handler_chain() relies on ->register_rwsem to avoid the race
with uprobe_register/unregister which can add/del a consumer, or even
remove and then insert the new uprobe at the same address.
Perhaps we will add uprobe_apply_mm(uprobe, mm, is_register) and teach
copy_mm() to do filter(UPROBE_FILTER_FORK), but I think this change makes
sense anyway.
Note: instead of checking the retcode from uc->handler, we could add
uc->filter(UPROBE_FILTER_BPHIT). But I think this is not optimal to
call 2 hooks in a row. This buys nothing, and if handler/filter do
something nontrivial they will probably do the same work twice.

uprobes: Reintroduce uprobe_consumer->filter()
Finally add uprobe_consumer->filter() and change consumer_filter()

Note that ->filter() accepts mm_struct, not task_struct. Because:
1. We do not have for_each_mm_user(mm, task).
2. Even if we implement for_each_mm_user(), ->filter() can
use it itself.
3. It is not clear who will actually need this interface to
do the "nontrivial" filtering.
Another argument is "enum uprobe_filter_ctx", consumer->filter() can
use it to figure out why/where it was called. For example, perhaps
we can add UPROBE_FILTER_PRE_REGISTER used by build_map_info() to
quickly "nack" the unwanted mm's. In this case consumer should know
that it is called under ->i_mmap_mutex.
See the previous discussion at http://marc.info/?t=

Alternatively we could use srcu, but synchronize_srcu() is very

"nacked" by all consumers, we know that we can't race with the
new consumer which does uprobe_register().

perf perl scripts: Fix SIGALRM and pipe read race for rwtop
Fixing rwtop script race. The issue is caused by rwtop script triggering
SIGALRM and underneath pipe reading layer reporting error when
interrupted.
Fixing this by setting SA_RESTART for rwtop SIGALRM handler, which
avoids interruption of the pipe reading layer.

perf evlist: Make event_copy local to mmaps
I am getting segfaults *after* the time sorting of perf samples where
the event type is off the charts:
(gdb) bt
\#0 0x0807b1b2 in hists__inc_nr_events (hists=0x80a99c4, type=

\#3 0x0806fc53 in process_finished_round (tool=0xffffc520, event=0x0, session=0x80a9b90) at util/session.c:645
This is bizarre because the event has already been processed once --
before it was added to the samples queue -- and the event was found to
be sane at that time.
There seem to be 2 causes:
1. perf_evlist__mmap_read updates the read location even though there
are outstanding references to events sitting in the mmap buffers via the
ordered samples queue.
2. There is a single evlist->event_copy for all evlist entries.
event_copy is used to handle an event wrapping at the mmap buffer
boundary.
This patch addresses the second problem - making event_copy local to
each perf_mmap. With this change my highly repeatable use case no longer
fails.
The first problem is much more complicated and will be the subject of a
future patch.

tracing: Init current_trace to nop_trace and remove NULL checks
On early boot up, when the ftrace ring buffer is initialized, the
static variable current_trace is initialized to &nop_trace.
Before this initialization, current_trace is NULL and will never
become NULL again. It is always reassigned to a ftrace tracer.
Several places check if current_trace is NULL before it uses
it, and this check is frivolous, because at the point in time
when the checks are made the only way current_trace could be
NULL is if ftrace failed its allocations at boot up, and the
paths to these locations would probably not be possible.
By initializing current_trace to &nop_trace where it is declared,
current_trace will never be NULL, and we can remove all these
checks of current_trace being NULL which never needed to be
checked in the first place.

. Make some POWER7 events available in sysfs, equivalent to

. Add event group view, from Namyung Kim:
To use it, 'perf record' should group events when recording. And then perf
report parses the saved group relation from file header and prints them
together if --group option is provided. You can use 'perf evlist' command to
see event group information:
$ perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles}' noploop 1
[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.385 MB perf.data (~16807 samples) ]
$ perf evlist --group
{ref-cycles,cycles}
With this example, default perf report will show you each event
separately like this:
$ perf report
...
# group: {ref-cycles,cycles}
# ========
# Samples: 3K of event 'ref-cycles'
# Event count (approx.):

In this case the event group information will be shown in the end of

As you can see the Overhead column now contains both of ref-cycles and
cycles and header line shows group information also - 'anon group {
ref-cycles, cycles }'. The output is sorted by period of group leader
first.
If perf.data file doesn't contain group information, this --group

perf: Document the ABI of perf sysfs entries
This patchset addes two new sets of files to sysfs for POWER architecture.
- perf event config format in /sys/devices/cpu/format/event
- generic and POWER-specific perf events in /sys/devices/cpu/events/
The format of the first file is already documented in:
sysfs-bus-event_source-devices-format
Document the format of the second set of files '/sys/devices/cpu/events/*'
which would also become part of the ABI.
Changelog[v4]:
[Jiri Olsa]: Mention that multiple event= like terms can be specified
in the 'events' file.
[Jiri Olsa]: Remove the documentation for the 'config format' file
as it is already documented in 'Documentation/ABI/testing/'.
[Jiri Olsa]: Move ABI documentation from 'stable/' to 'testing/'
Changelog[v3]:
[Greg KH] Include ABI documentation.

tracing: Replace static old_tracer check of tracer name
Currently the trace buffer read functions use a static variable
"old_tracer" for detecting if the current tracer changes. This
was suitable for a single trace file ("trace"), but to add a
snapshot feature that will use the same function for its file,
a check against a static variable is not sufficient.
To use the output functions for two different files, instead of
storing the current tracer in a static variable, as the trace
iterator descriptor contains a pointer to the original current
tracer's name, that pointer can now be used to check if the
current tracer has changed between different reads of the trace
file.

perf: Add 'perf bench numa mem' NUMA performance measurement suite
Add a suite of NUMA performance benchmarks.
The goal was simulate the behavior and access patterns of real NUMA
workloads, via a wide range of parameters, so this tool goes well
beyond simple bzero() measurements that most NUMA micro-benchmarks use:
- It processes the data and creates a chain of data dependencies,
like a real workload would. Neither the compiler, nor the
kernel (via KSM and other optimizations) nor the CPU can
eliminate parts of the workload.
- It randomizes the initial state and also randomizes the target
addresses of the processing - it's not a simple forward scan
of addresses.
- It provides flexible options to set process, thread and memory
relationship information: -G sets "global" memory shared between
all test processes, -P sets "process" memory shared by all
threads of a process and -T sets "thread" private memory.
- There's a NUMA convergence monitoring and convergence latency
measurement option via -c and -m.
- Micro-sleeps and synchronization can be injected to provoke lock
contention and scheduling, via the -u and -S options. This simulates
IO and contention.
- The -x option instructs the workload to 'perturb' itself artificially
every N seconds, by moving to the first and last CPU of the system
periodically. This way the stability of convergence equilibrium and
the number of steps taken for the scheduler to reach equilibrium again
can be measured.
- The amount of work can be specified via the -l loop count, and/or
via a -s seconds-timeout value.
- CPU and node memory binding options, to test hard binding scenarios.
THP can be turned on and off via madvise() calls.
- Live reporting of convergence progress in an 'at glance' output format.
Printing of convergence and deconvergence events.
The 'perf bench numa mem -a' option will start an array of about 30
individual tests that will each output such measurements:

tracing/fgraph: Adjust fgraph depth before calling trace return callback
While debugging the virtual cputime with the function graph tracer
with a max_depth of 1 (most common use of the max_depth so far),
I found that I was missing kernel execution because of a race condition.
The code for the return side of the function has a slight race:
ftrace_pop_return_trace(&trace, &ret, frame_pointer);
trace.rettime = trace_clock_local();
ftrace_graph_return(&trace);
barrier();
current->curr_ret_stack--;
The ftrace_pop_return_trace() initializes the trace structure for
the callback. The ftrace_graph_return() uses the trace structure
for its own use as that structure is on the stack and is local
to this function. Then the curr_ret_stack is decremented which
is what the trace.depth is set to.
If an interrupt comes in after the ftrace_graph_return() but
before the curr_ret_stack, then the called function will get
a depth of 2. If max_depth is set to 1 this function will be
ignored.
The problem is that the trace has already been called, and the
timestamp for that trace will not reflect the time the function
was about to re-enter userspace. Calls to the interrupt will not
be traced because the max_depth has prevented this.
To solve this issue, the ftrace_graph_return() can safely be
moved after the current->curr_ret_stack has been updated.
This way the timestamp for the return callback will reflect
the actual time.
If an interrupt comes in after the curr_ret_stack update and
ftrace_graph_return(), it will be traced. It may look a little
confusing to see it within the other function, but at least
it will not be lost.
