use_stdio was associated with struct perf_data and not perf_data_file
meaning there was implicit use of fd rather than fptr that may not be
safe. For example, in perf_data_file__write. Reorganize perf_data_file
to better abstract use_stdio, add kernel-doc and more consistently use
perf_data__ accessors so that use_stdio is better respected.

Instead of using zalloc(nr_entries * sizeof_entry) that is what calloc()
does.
In some places where linux/zalloc.h isn't needed, remove it, add when
needed and was getting it indirectly.

Add the evsel from evsel__parse_sample into the struct
perf_sample. Sometimes we want to alter the evsel associated with a
sample, such as with off-cpu bpf-output events. In general the evsel
and perf_sample are passed as a pair, but this makes an altered evsel
something of a chore to keep checking for and setting up. Later
patches will remove passing an evsel with the perf_sample and switch
to just using the perf_sample's value.

The deferred stack trace code wasn't using perf_sample__init/exit. Add
the deferred stack trace clean up to perf_sample__exit which requires
proper NULL initialization in perf_sample__init. Make the
perf_sample__exit robust to being called more than once by using
zfree. Make the error paths in evsel__parse_sample exit the
sample. Add a merged_callchain boolean to capture that callchain is
allocated, deferred_callchain doen't suffice for this. Pack the struct
variables to avoid padding bytes for this.
Similiarly powerpc_vpadtl_sample wasn't using perf_sample__init/exit,
use it for consistency and potential issues with uninitialized
variables.
Similarly guest_session__inject_events in builtin-inject wasn't using
perf_sample_init/exit. The lifetime management for fetched events is
somewhat complex there, but when an event is fetched the sample should
be initialized and needs exiting on error. The sample may be left in
place so that future injects have access to it.

Print log information in ordered event processing so that the cause of
finished round failing is clearer. Print the event name along with its
number when an event isn't processed. Add extra detail about where the
failure happened.
The following log lines come from running `perf data convert`. Before:
0xa250 [0x10]: failed to process type: 80
After:
0xa250 [0x10]: piped event processing failed for event of type: FEATURE (80)

The index into the cpumap array and the number of entries within the
array can never be negative, so let's make them unsigned. This is
prompted by reports that gcc 13 with -O6 is giving a
alloc-size-larger-than errors. The change makes the cpumap changes and
then updates the declaration of index variables throughout perf and
libperf to be unsigned. The two things are hard to separate as
compiler warnings about mixing signed and unsigned types breaks the
build.

Add 64-bits of feature data to record the ELF machine and flags.
This allows readers to initialize based on the data.
For example, `perf kvm stat` wants to initialize based on the kind of
data to be read, but at initialization time there are no threads to base
this data upon and using the host means cross platform support won't
work.
The values in the perf_env also act as a cache for these within the
session.

perf_session__fprintf() prints only the host.
This has been changed to print details of host and all guests, by
traversing through the RB-Tree.
These are visible when using high verbosity (-vvvv) in KVM environments,
during perf report dumps.
Testing:
- Test 1: Record the local machine and guest VM using 'perf kvm record' and
generate the report using 'perf kvm report -vvvv -D'. The dump should show
the threads and other details related to local and guest machine.
- 1 Ubuntu VM running on Fedora host
- VM is running a noisy program =>
$ dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/null
- On host run =>
$ sudo ./perf kvm --guestvmlinux=/tmp/shared/guest_vmlinux \
--guestkallsyms=/tmp/shared/guest_kallsyms \
--guestmodules=/tmp/shared/guest_modules \
record -a -g -o perf.data.guest
and exit after a few seconds.
[ perf record: Woken up 9 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.150 MB perf.data.guest \
(29311 samples) ]
- Generate dump =>
$ sudo ./perf kvm --guestkallsyms /tmp/shared/guest_kallsyms \
report -vvvv -D -i perf.data.guest > output.txt
- Check for threads associated with guest machine.
$ grep "Thread 0" output.txt
Thread 0 swapper
Thread 0 [guest/0]
PASS
- Test 2: Record the local machine and guest VM using 'perf kvm record' and
generate the report using 'perf kvm report'. The functions running on
guest VM should be seen in the report.
- Same setup as Test 1 but the test looks at the performance profile,
to check if the function names are visible.
- Peek into profile using =>
$ sudo ./perf kvm --guestkallsyms /tmp/shared/guest_kallsyms \
report -i perf.data.guest
- Samples: 29K of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 28711693142

PASS
- Test 3: Record the local and 2 guest VMs using 'perf kvm record' and
generate the report using 'perf kvm report -vvvv -D'. The dump should show
the threads and other details related to local and guest machines.
- 1 Ubuntu and 1 Alpine VMs running on Fedora host.
- Find PIDs of qemu instances and use them during record and report
$ pgrep qemu
5816
25098
- Record the activity =>
$ sudo ./perf kvm record -p 5816,25098 -a -g -o perf.data.guests
Warning:
PID/TID switch overriding SYSTEM
[ perf record: Woken up 325927 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.692 MB perf.data.guests \
(57389 samples) ]
- Generate dump =>
$ sudo ./perf kvm report -vvvv -D -i perf.data.guests > output.txt
- Check if the threads related to the local machine and guest VMs
are present =>
$ grep "Thread 0" output.txt
Thread 0 swapper
Thread 0 [guest/0]
NOTE: Threads from Ubuntu and Alpine VMs are bundled together and
appear as one guest machine.
Looking into output.txt =>
Threads: 6

Thread 25098 :25098
Thread 5819 :5819
Thread 5820 :5820
Thread 25103 :25103
To conclude, information is collected for both VMs and not listed
as two different guest machines.
PASS
- Test 4: Check if any guest-related information is printed in
perf annotate. This test is included because the command calls
perf_session__fprintf() in its code path when using -vvvv option.
This could be explained by inability / lack of options for 'perf annotate'
to look into guest VM from host machine, due to no option to specify the
guest's kallsyms or modules. A similar explanation for 'perf mem' could
be used, as perf_session__fprintf() is also present in its code path.
- Run annotate =>
$ sudo ./perf annotate -i perf.data.guest -vvvv > output.txt
- Check for threads from local machine or guest VM =>
$ grep "Thread 0" output.txt
Thread 0 swapper
Threads from local machine are found while threads from guest VM
are not found. It is possibly because of a lack of a guest kallsyms
option for DSO matching in perf annotate.
PASS
- Test 5: Run kvm test available on perf path
- $ sudo ./perf test kvm
89: perf kvm tests : Ok

Define new, perf tool only, sample types and their layouts. Add logic
to parse /proc/schedstat, convert it to perf sample format and save
samples to perf.data file with `perf sched stats record` command.
Also add logic to read perf.data file, interpret schedstat samples and
print rawdump of samples with `perf script -D`.
Note that, /proc/schedstat file output is standardized with version
number. The patch supports v15 but older or newer version can be added
easily.

Add a new event type for deferred callchains and a new callback for the
struct perf_tool. For now it doesn't actually handle the deferred
callchains but it just marks the sample if it has the PERF_CONTEXT_
USER_DEFFERED in the callchain array.
At least, perf report can dump the raw data with this change. Actually
this requires the next commit to enable attr.defer_callchain, but if you
already have a data file, it'll show the following result.

Getting context for what a tool is doing, such as the perf_inject
instance, using container_of the tool is a common pattern in the
code. This isn't possible event_op2, event_op3 and event_op4 callbacks
as the tool isn't passed. Add the argument and then fix function
signatures to match. As tools maybe reading a tool from somewhere
else, change that code to use the passed in tool.

If a user specifies an AUX buffer larger than 2 GiB, the returned size
may exceed 0x80000000. Since the err variable is defined as a signed
32-bit integer, such a value overflows and becomes negative.
As a result, the perf record command reports an error:
0x146e8 [0x30]: failed to process type: 71 [Unknown error 183711232]
Change the type of the err variable to a signed 64-bit integer to
accommodate large buffer sizes correctly.

When creating a perf_session the host perf_env may or may not want to
be used. For example, `perf top` uses a host perf_env while `perf
inject` does not. Add a host_env argument to perf_session__new so that
sessions requiring a host perf_env can pass it in. Currently if none
is specified the global perf_env variable is used, but this will
change in later patches.

The session holds a perf_env pointer env. In UI code container_of is
used to turn the env to a session, but this assumes the session
header's env is in use. Rather than a dubious container_of, hold the
session in the evlist and derive the env from the session with
evsel__env, perf_session__env, etc.

Since there is no way to align compressed data in zstd compression, this
patch add a new event type `PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED2`, which adds a field
`data_size` to specify the actual compressed data size.
The `header.size` contains the total record size, including the padding
at the end to make it 8-byte aligned.

`perf report` currently halts with an error when encountering
unsupported new event types (`event.type >= PERF_RECORD_HEADER_MAX`).
This patch modifies the behavior to skip these samples and continue
processing the remaining events.
Additionally, stops reporting if the new event size is not 8-byte
aligned.

The struct dump_regs contains 512 bytes of cache_regs, meaning the two
values in perf_sample contribute 1088 bytes of its total 1384 bytes
size. Initializing this much memory has a cost reported by Tavian
Barnes <tavianator@tavianator.com> as about 2.5% when running `perf
script --itrace=i0`:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/d841b97b3ad2ca8bcab07e4293375fb7c32dfce7.1736618095.git.tavianator@tavianator.com/
Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> replied that the zero
initialization was necessary and couldn't simply be removed.
This patch aims to strike a middle ground of still zeroing the
perf_sample, but removing 79% of its size by make user_regs and
intr_regs optional pointers to zalloc-ed memory. To support the
allocation accessors are created for user_regs and intr_regs. To
support correct cleanup perf_sample__init and perf_sample__exit
functions are created and added throughout the code base.

Sample period calculation in deliver_sample_value is updated to
calculate the per-thread period delta for events that are inherit +
PERF_SAMPLE_READ. When the sampling event has this configuration, the
read_format.id is used with the tid from the sample to lookup the
storage of the previously accumulated counter total before calculating
the delta. All existing valid configurations where read_format.value
represents some global value continue to use just the read_format.id to
locate the storage of the previously accumulated total.
perf_sample_id is modified to support tracking per-thread
values, along with the existing global per-id values. In the
per-thread case, values are stored in a hash by tid within the
perf_sample_id, and are dynamically allocated as the number is not known
ahead of time.

The branch counter information (br_cntr_width and br_cntr_nr) in the
perf_env is retrieved from the CPU_PMU_CAPS. However, the CPU_PMU_CAPS
is not available on hybrid machines. Without the width information, the
number of occurrences of an event cannot be calculated.
For a hybrid machine, the caps information should be retrieved from the
PMU_CAPS, and stored in the perf_env->pmu_caps.
Add a perf_env__find_br_cntr_info() to return the correct branch counter
information from the corresponding fields.
Committer notes:
While testing I couldn't s ee those "Branch counter" columns enabled by
pressing 'B' on the TUI, after reporting it to the list Kan explained
the situation:
<quote Kan Liang>
For a hybrid client, the "Branch Counter" feature is only supported
starting from the just released Lunar Lake. Perf falls back to only
"ANY" on your Raptor Lake.

Previously inject->is_pipe was set if the input or output were a
pipe. Determining the input was a pipe had to be done prior to
starting the session and opening the file. This was done by comparing
the input file name with '-' but it fails if the pipe file is written
to disk.
Opening a pipe file from disk will correctly set perf_data.is_pipe, but
this is too late for 'perf inject' and results in a broken file. A
workaround is 'cat pipe_perf|perf inject -i - ...'.
This change removes inject->is_pipe and changes the dependent
conditions to use the is_pipe flag on the input
(inject->session->data) and output files (inject->output). This
ensures the is_pipe condition reflects things like the header being
read.
The change removes the use of perf file header repiping, that is
writing the file header out while reading it in. The case of input
pipe and output file cannot repipe as the attributes for the file are
unknown. To resolve this |
