License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a license Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was chosen based on the license information in the file. GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall exception: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL code, without confusing license compliance tools. Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format is: ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE) SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will happen in a separate step. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

perf: make events stream always parsable The event stream is not always parsable because the format of a sample is dependent on the sample_type of the selected event. When there is more than one selected event and the sample_types are not the same then parsing becomes problematic. A sample can be matched to its selected event using the ID that is allocated when the event is opened. Unfortunately, to get the ID from the sample means first parsing it. This patch adds a new sample format bit PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFER that puts the ID at a fixed position so that the ID can be retrieved without parsing the sample. For sample events, that is the first position immediately after the header. For non-sample events, that is the last position. In this respect parsing samples requires that the sample_type and ID values are recorded. For example, perf tools records struct perf_event_attr and the IDs within the perf.data file. Those must be read first before it is possible to parse samples found later in the perf.data file.

perf: Add generic transaction flags Add a generic qualifier for transaction events, as a new sample type that returns a flag word. This is particularly useful for qualifying aborts: to distinguish aborts which happen due to asynchronous events (like conflicts caused by another CPU) versus instructions that lead to an abort. The tuning strategies are very different for those cases, so it's important to distinguish them easily and early. Since it's inconvenient and inflexible to filter for this in the kernel we report all the events out and allow some post processing in user space. The flags are based on the Intel TSX events, but should be fairly generic and mostly applicable to other HTM architectures too. In addition to various flag words there's also reserved space to report an program supplied abort code. For TSX this is used to distinguish specific classes of aborts, like a lock busy abort when doing lock elision. Flags: Elision and generic transactions (ELISION vs TRANSACTION) (HLE vs RTM on TSX; IBM etc. would likely only use TRANSACTION) Aborts caused by current thread vs aborts caused by others (SYNC vs ASYNC) Retryable transaction (RETRY) Conflicts with other threads (CONFLICT) Transaction write capacity overflow (CAPACITY WRITE) Transaction read capacity overflow (CAPACITY READ) Transactions implicitely aborted can also return an abort code. This can be used to signal specific events to the profiler. A common case is abort on lock busy in a RTM eliding library (code 0xff) To handle this case we include the TSX abort code Common example aborts in TSX would be: - Data conflict with another thread on memory read. Flags: TRANSACTION|ASYNC|CONFLICT - executing a WRMSR in a transaction. Flags: TRANSACTION|SYNC - HLE transaction in user space is too large Flags: ELISION|SYNC|CAPACITY-WRITE The only flag that is somewhat TSX specific is ELISION. This adds the perf core glue needed for reporting the new flag word out. v2: Add MEM/MISC v3: Move transaction to the end v4: Separate capacity-read/write and remove misc v5: Remove _SAMPLE. Move abort flags to 32bit.

perf/core, x86: Add PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR For understanding how the workload maps to memory channels and hardware behavior, it's very important to collect address maps with physical addresses. For example, 3D XPoint access can only be found by filtering the physical address. Add a new sample type for physical address. perf already has a facility to collect data virtual address. This patch introduces a function to convert the virtual address to physical address. The function is quite generic and can be extended to any architecture as long as a virtual address is provided. - For kernel direct mapping addresses, virt_to_phys is used to convert the virtual addresses to physical address. - For user virtual addresses, __get_user_pages_fast is used to walk the pages tables for user physical address. - This does not work for vmalloc addresses right now. These are not resolved, but code to do that could be added. The new sample type requires collecting the virtual address. The virtual address will not be output unless SAMPLE_ADDR is applied. For security, the physical address can only be exposed to root or privileged user.

Add branch_sample_type flags for CYCLES and FLAGS. It's a bit unusual for branch_sample_types to be negative (disable), not positive (enable), but since the legacy ABI reported the flags we need some form of explicit disabling to avoid breaking the ABI. After we have the flags the x86 perf code can keep track if any users need the flags. If noone needs it the information is not collected. This cuts down the cost of LBR callstack on Skylake significantly. Profiling a kernel build with LBR call stack the average run time of the PMI handler drops by 43%.

Others are removed. v6: Not changed. v5: Not changed. The v5 patch series just change the userspace. v4: Comparing to previous version, the major changes are: 1. Remove the PERF_BR_JCC_FWD/PERF_BR_JCC_BWD, they will be computed later in userspace. 2. Remove the "cross" field in perf_branch_entry. The cross page computing will be done later in userspace.

perf: Add generic transaction flags Add a generic qualifier for transaction events, as a new sample type that returns a flag word. This is particularly useful for qualifying aborts: to distinguish aborts which happen due to asynchronous events (like conflicts caused by another CPU) versus instructions that lead to an abort. The tuning strategies are very different for those cases, so it's important to distinguish them easily and early. Since it's inconvenient and inflexible to filter for this in the kernel we report all the events out and allow some post processing in user space. The flags are based on the Intel TSX events, but should be fairly generic and mostly applicable to other HTM architectures too. In addition to various flag words there's also reserved space to report an program supplied abort code. For TSX this is used to distinguish specific classes of aborts, like a lock busy abort when doing lock elision. Flags: Elision and generic transactions (ELISION vs TRANSACTION) (HLE vs RTM on TSX; IBM etc. would likely only use TRANSACTION) Aborts caused by current thread vs aborts caused by others (SYNC vs ASYNC) Retryable transaction (RETRY) Conflicts with other threads (CONFLICT) Transaction write capacity overflow (CAPACITY WRITE) Transaction read capacity overflow (CAPACITY READ) Transactions implicitely aborted can also return an abort code. This can be used to signal specific events to the profiler. A common case is abort on lock busy in a RTM eliding library (code 0xff) To handle this case we include the TSX abort code Common example aborts in TSX would be: - Data conflict with another thread on memory read. Flags: TRANSACTION|ASYNC|CONFLICT - executing a WRMSR in a transaction. Flags: TRANSACTION|SYNC - HLE transaction in user space is too large Flags: ELISION|SYNC|CAPACITY-WRITE The only flag that is somewhat TSX specific is ELISION. This adds the perf core glue needed for reporting the new flag word out. v2: Add MEM/MISC v3: Move transaction to the end v4: Separate capacity-read/write and remove misc v5: Remove _SAMPLE. Move abort flags to 32bit.

perf: Add per event clockid support While thinking on the whole clock discussion it occurred to me we have two distinct uses of time: 1) the tracking of event/ctx/cgroup enabled/running/stopped times which includes the self-monitoring support in struct perf_event_mmap_page. 2) the actual timestamps visible in the data records. And we've been conflating them. The first is all about tracking time deltas, nobody should really care in what time base that happens, its all relative information, as long as its internally consistent it works. The second however is what people are worried about when having to merge their data with external sources. And here we have the discussion on MONOTONIC vs MONOTONIC_RAW etc.. Where MONOTONIC is good for correlating between machines (static offset), MONOTNIC_RAW is required for correlating against a fixed rate hardware clock. This means configurability; now 1) makes that hard because it needs to be internally consistent across groups of unrelated events; which is why we had to have a global perf_clock(). However, for 2) it doesn't really matter, perf itself doesn't care what it writes into the buffer. The below patch makes the distinction between these two cases by adding perf_event_clock() which is used for the second case. It further makes this configurable on a per-event basis, but adds a few sanity checks such that we cannot combine events with different clocks in confusing ways. And since we then have per-event configurability we might as well retain the 'legacy' behaviour as a default.

perf: Add PERF_RECORD_SWITCH to indicate context switches There are already two events for context switches, namely the tracepoint sched:sched_switch and the software event context_switches. Unfortunately neither are suitable for use by non-privileged users for the purpose of synchronizing hardware trace data (e.g. Intel PT) to the context switch. Tracepoints are no good at all for non-privileged users because they need either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid <= -1. On the other hand, kernel software events need either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid <= 1. Now many distributions do default perf_event_paranoid to 1 making context_switches a contender, except it has another problem (which is also shared with sched:sched_switch) which is that it happens before perf schedules events out instead of after perf schedules events in. Whereas a privileged user can see all the events anyway, a non-privileged user only sees events for their own processes, in other words they see when their process was scheduled out not when it was scheduled in. That presents two problems to use the event: 1. the information comes too late, so tools have to look ahead in the event stream to find out what the current state is 2. if they are unlucky tracing might have stopped before the context-switches event is recorded. This new PERF_RECORD_SWITCH event does not have those problems and it also has a couple of other small advantages. It is easier to use because it is an auxiliary event (like mmap, comm and task events) which can be enabled by setting a single bit. It is smaller than sched:sched_switch and easier to parse. To make the event useful for privileged users also, if the context is cpu-wide then the event record will be PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE which is the same as PERF_RECORD_SWITCH except it also provides the next or previous pid/tid.

perf/core: Add ::write_backward attribute to perf event This patch introduces 'write_backward' bit to perf_event_attr, which controls the direction of a ring buffer. After set, the corresponding ring buffer is written from end to beginning. This feature is design to support reading from overwritable ring buffer. Ring buffer can be created by mapping a perf event fd. Kernel puts event records into ring buffer, user tooling like perf fetch them from address returned by mmap(). To prevent racing between kernel and tooling, they communicate to each other through 'head' and 'tail' pointers. Kernel maintains 'head' pointer, points it to the next free area (tail of the last record). Tooling maintains 'tail' pointer, points it to the tail of last consumed record (record has already been fetched). Kernel determines the available space in a ring buffer using these two pointers to avoid overwrite unfetched records. By mapping without 'PROT_WRITE', an overwritable ring buffer is created. Different from normal ring buffer, tooling is unable to maintain 'tail' pointer because writing is forbidden. Therefore, for this type of ring buffers, kernel overwrite old records unconditionally, works like flight recorder. This feature would be useful if reading from overwritable ring buffer were as easy as reading from normal ring buffer. However, there's an obscure problem. The following figure demonstrates a full overwritable ring buffer. In this figure, the 'head' pointer points to the end of last record, and a long record 'E' is pending. For a normal ring buffer, a 'tail' pointer would have pointed to position (X), so kernel knows there's no more space in the ring buffer. However, for an overwritable ring buffer, kernel ignore the 'tail' pointer. (X) head . | . V +------+-------+----------+------+---+ |A....A|B.....B|C........C|D....D| | +------+-------+----------+------+---+ Record 'A' is overwritten by event 'E': head | V +--+---+-------+----------+------+---+ |.E|..A|B.....B|C........C|D....D|E..| +--+---+-------+----------+------+---+ Now tooling decides to read from this ring buffer. However, none of these two natural positions, 'head' and the start of this ring buffer, are pointing to the head of a record. Even the full ring buffer can be accessed by tooling, it is unable to find a position to start decoding. The first attempt tries to solve this problem AFAIK can be found from [1]. It makes kernel to maintain 'tail' pointer: updates it when ring buffer is half full. However, this approach introduces overhead to fast path. Test result shows a 1% overhead [2]. In addition, this method utilizes no more tham 50% records. Another attempt can be found from [3], which allows putting the size of an event at the end of each record. This approach allows tooling to find records in a backward manner from 'head' pointer by reading size of a record from its tail. However, because of alignment requirement, it needs 8 bytes to record the size of a record, which is a huge waste. Its performance is also not good, because more data need to be written. This approach also introduces some extra branch instructions to fast path. 'write_backward' is a better solution to this problem. Following figure demonstrates the state of the overwritable ring buffer when 'write_backward' is set before overwriting: head | V +---+------+----------+-------+------+ | |D....D|C........C|B.....B|A....A| +---+------+----------+-------+------+ and after overwriting: head | V +---+------+----------+-------+---+--+ |..E|D....D|C........C|B.....B|A..|E.| +---+------+----------+-------+---+--+ In each situation, 'head' points to the beginning of the newest record. From this record, tooling can iterate over the full ring buffer and fetch records one by one. The only limitation that needs to be considered is back-to-back reading. Due to the non-deterministic of user programs, it is impossible to ensure the ring buffer keeps stable during reading. Consider an extreme situation: tooling is scheduled out after reading record 'D', then a burst of events come, eat up the whole ring buffer (one or multiple rounds). When the tooling process comes back, reading after 'D' is incorrect now. To prevent this problem, we need to find a way to ensure the ring buffer is stable during reading. ioctl(PERF_EVENT_IOC_PAUSE_OUTPUT) is suggested because its overhead is lower than ioctl(PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE). By carefully verifying 'header' pointer, reader can avoid pausing the ring-buffer. For example: /* A union of all possible events */ union perf_event event; p = head = perf_mmap__read_head(); while (true) { /* copy header of next event */ fetch(&event.header, p, sizeof(event.header)); /* read 'head' pointer */ head = perf_mmap__read_head(); /* check overwritten: is the header good? */ if (!verify(sizeof(event.header), p, head)) break; /* copy the whole event */ fetch(&event, p, event.header.size); /* read 'head' pointer again */ head = perf_mmap__read_head(); /* is the whole event good? */ if (!verify(event.header.size, p, head)) break; p += event.header.size; } However, the overhead is high because: a) In-place decoding is not safe. Copying-verifying-decoding is required. b) Fetching 'head' pointer requires additional synchronization. (From Alexei Starovoitov: Even when this trick works, pause is needed for more than stability of reading. When we collect the events into overwrite buffer we're waiting for some other trigger (like all cpu utilization spike or just one cpu running and all others are idle) and when it happens the buffer has valuable info from the past. At this point new events are no longer interesting and buffer should be paused, events read and unpaused until next trigger comes.) This patch utilizes event's default overflow_handler introduced previously. perf_event_output_backward() is created as the default overflow handler for backward ring buffers. To avoid extra overhead to fast path, original perf_event_output() becomes __perf_event_output() and marked '__always_inline'. In theory, there's no extra overhead introduced to fast path. Performance testing: Calling 3000000 times of 'close(-1)', use gettimeofday() to check duration. Use 'perf record -o /dev/null -e raw_syscalls:*' to capture system calls. In ns.

bpf/tracing: allow user space to query prog array on the same tp Commit e87c6bc3852b ("bpf: permit multiple bpf attachments for a single perf event") added support to attach multiple bpf programs to a single perf event. Although this provides flexibility, users may want to know what other bpf programs attached to the same tp interface. Besides getting visibility for the underlying bpf system, such information may also help consolidate multiple bpf programs, understand potential performance issues due to a large array, and debug (e.g., one bpf program which overwrites return code may impact subsequent program results). Commit 2541517c32be ("tracing, perf: Implement BPF programs attached to kprobes") utilized the existing perf ioctl interface and added the command PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF to attach a bpf program to a tracepoint. This patch adds a new ioctl command, given a perf event fd, to query the bpf program array attached to the same perf tracepoint event. The new uapi ioctl command: PERF_EVENT_IOC_QUERY_BPF The new uapi/linux/perf_event.h structure: struct perf_event_query_bpf { __u32 ids_len; __u32 prog_cnt; __u32 ids[0]; }; User space provides buffer "ids" for kernel to copy to. When returning from the kernel, the number of available programs in the array is set in "prog_cnt". The usage: struct perf_event_query_bpf *query = malloc(sizeof(*query) + sizeof(u32) * ids_len); query.ids_len = ids_len; err = ioctl(pmu_efd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_QUERY_BPF, query); if (err == 0) { /* query.prog_cnt is the number of available progs, * number of progs in ids: (ids_len == 0) ? 0 : query.prog_cnt */ } else if (errno == ENOSPC) { /* query.ids_len number of progs copied, * query.prog_cnt is the number of available progs */ } else { /* other errors */ } Signed-off-by: Yonghong Song <yhs@fb.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

tracing, perf: Implement BPF programs attached to kprobes BPF programs, attached to kprobes, provide a safe way to execute user-defined BPF byte-code programs without being able to crash or hang the kernel in any way. The BPF engine makes sure that such programs have a finite execution time and that they cannot break out of their sandbox. The user interface is to attach to a kprobe via the perf syscall: struct perf_event_attr attr = { .type = PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT, .config = event_id, ... }; event_fd = perf_event_open(&attr,...); ioctl(event_fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF, prog_fd); 'prog_fd' is a file descriptor associated with BPF program previously loaded. 'event_id' is an ID of the kprobe created. Closing 'event_fd': close(event_fd); ... automatically detaches BPF program from it. BPF programs can call in-kernel helper functions to: - lookup/update/delete elements in maps - probe_read - wraper of probe_kernel_read() used to access any kernel data structures BPF programs receive 'struct pt_regs *' as an input ('struct pt_regs' is architecture dependent) and return 0 to ignore the event and 1 to store kprobe event into the ring buffer. Note, kprobes are a fundamentally _not_ a stable kernel ABI, so BPF programs attached to kprobes must be recompiled for every kernel version and user must supply correct LINUX_VERSION_CODE in attr.kern_version during bpf_prog_load() call.

perf/ring_buffer: Introduce new ioctl options to pause and resume the ring-buffer Add new ioctl() to pause/resume ring-buffer output. In some situations we want to read from the ring-buffer only when we ensure nothing can write to the ring-buffer during reading. Without this patch we have to turn off all events attached to this ring-buffer to achieve this. This patch is a prerequisite to enable overwrite support for the perf ring-buffer support. Following commits will introduce new methods support reading from overwrite ring buffer. Before reading, caller must ensure the ring buffer is frozen, or the reading is unreliable.

bpf/tracing: allow user space to query prog array on the same tp Commit e87c6bc3852b ("bpf: permit multiple bpf attachments for a single perf event") added support to attach multiple bpf programs to a single perf event. Although this provides flexibility, users may want to know what other bpf programs attached to the same tp interface. Besides getting visibility for the underlying bpf system, such information may also help consolidate multiple bpf programs, understand potential performance issues due to a large array, and debug (e.g., one bpf program which overwrites return code may impact subsequent program results). Commit 2541517c32be ("tracing, perf: Implement BPF programs attached to kprobes") utilized the existing perf ioctl interface and added the command PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF to attach a bpf program to a tracepoint. This patch adds a new ioctl command, given a perf event fd, to query the bpf program array attached to the same perf tracepoint event. The new uapi ioctl command: PERF_EVENT_IOC_QUERY_BPF The new uapi/linux/perf_event.h structure: struct perf_event_query_bpf { __u32 ids_len; __u32 prog_cnt; __u32 ids[0]; }; User space provides buffer "ids" for kernel to copy to. When returning from the kernel, the number of available programs in the array is set in "prog_cnt". The usage: struct perf_event_query_bpf *query = malloc(sizeof(*query) + sizeof(u32) * ids_len); query.ids_len = ids_len; err = ioctl(pmu_efd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_QUERY_BPF, query); if (err == 0) { /* query.prog_cnt is the number of available progs, * number of progs in ids: (ids_len == 0) ? 0 : query.prog_cnt */ } else if (errno == ENOSPC) { /* query.ids_len number of progs copied, * query.prog_cnt is the number of available progs */ } else { /* other errors */ } Signed-off-by: Yonghong Song <yhs@fb.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

To solve all that make this change explicit, detectable and self-contained, by iterating the ABI the following way: - Always clear bit 0, and rename it to usrpage->cap_bit0, to at least not confuse old user-space binaries. RDPMC will be marked as unavailable to old binaries but that's within the ABI, this is a capability bit. - Rename bit 1 to ->cap_bit0_is_deprecated and always set it to 1, so new libraries can reliably detect that bit 0 is deprecated and perma-zero without having to check the kernel version. - Use bits 2, 3, 4 for the newly defined, correct functionality: cap_user_rdpmc : 1, /* The RDPMC instruction can be used to read counts */ cap_user_time : 1, /* The time_* fields are used */ cap_user_time_zero : 1, /* The time_zero field is used */ - Rename all the bitfield names in perf_event.h to be different from the old names, to make sure it's not possible to mis-compile it accidentally with old assumptions. The 'size' field can then be used in the future to add new fields and it will act as a natural ABI version indicator as well.

In the case of perf tools, Intel PT decodes correctly but the timestamps that are output (for example by perf script) have lost 32-bits of granularity so they look like they are not changing at all.

perf: Add AUX area to ring buffer for raw data streams This patch introduces "AUX space" in the perf mmap buffer, intended for exporting high bandwidth data streams to userspace, such as instruction flow traces. AUX space is a ring buffer, defined by aux_{offset,size} fields in the user_page structure, and read/write pointers aux_{head,tail}, which abide by the same rules as data_* counterparts of the main perf buffer. In order to allocate/mmap AUX, userspace needs to set up aux_offset to such an offset that will be greater than data_offset+data_size and aux_size to be the desired buffer size. Both need to be page aligned. Then, same aux_offset and aux_size should be passed to mmap() call and if everything adds up, you should have an AUX buffer as a result. Pages that are mapped into this buffer also come out of user's mlock rlimit plus perf_event_mlock_kb allowance.

perf: Add PERF_RECORD_SWITCH to indicate context switches There are already two events for context switches, namely the tracepoint sched:sched_switch and the software event context_switches. Unfortunately neither are suitable for use by non-privileged users for the purpose of synchronizing hardware trace data (e.g. Intel PT) to the context switch. Tracepoints are no good at all for non-privileged users because they need either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid <= -1. On the other hand, kernel software events need either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid <= 1. Now many distributions do default perf_event_paranoid to 1 making context_switches a contender, except it has another problem (which is also shared with sched:sched_switch) which is that it happens before perf schedules events out instead of after perf schedules events in. Whereas a privileged user can see all the events anyway, a non-privileged user only sees events for their own processes, in other words they see when their process was scheduled out not when it was scheduled in. That presents two problems to use the event: 1. the information comes too late, so tools have to look ahead in the event stream to find out what the current state is 2. if they are unlucky tracing might have stopped before the context-switches event is recorded. This new PERF_RECORD_SWITCH event does not have those problems and it also has a couple of other small advantages. It is easier to use because it is an auxiliary event (like mmap, comm and task events) which can be enabled by setting a single bit. It is smaller than sched:sched_switch and easier to parse. To make the event useful for privileged users also, if the context is cpu-wide then the event record will be PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE which is the same as PERF_RECORD_SWITCH except it also provides the next or previous pid/tid.

For sample events, that is the first position immediately after the header. For non-sample events, that is the last position. In this respect parsing samples requires that the sample_type and ID values are recorded. For example, perf tools records struct perf_event_attr and the IDs within the perf.data file. Those must be read first before it is possible to parse samples found later in the perf.data file.

perf/core, x86: Add PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR For understanding how the workload maps to memory channels and hardware behavior, it's very important to collect address maps with physical addresses. For example, 3D XPoint access can only be found by filtering the physical address. Add a new sample type for physical address. perf already has a facility to collect data virtual address. This patch introduces a function to convert the virtual address to physical address. The function is quite generic and can be extended to any architecture as long as a virtual address is provided. - For kernel direct mapping addresses, virt_to_phys is used to convert the virtual addresses to physical address. - For user virtual addresses, __get_user_pages_fast is used to walk the pages tables for user physical address. - This does not work for vmalloc addresses right now. These are not resolved, but code to do that could be added. The new sample type requires collecting the virtual address. The virtual address will not be output unless SAMPLE_ADDR is applied. For security, the physical address can only be exposed to root or privileged user.

perf: Add ITRACE_START record to indicate that tracing has started For counters that generate AUX data that is bound to the context of a running task, such as instruction tracing, the decoder needs to know exactly which task is running when the event is first scheduled in, before the first sched_switch. The decoder's need to know this stems from the fact that instruction flow trace decoding will almost always require program's object code in order to reconstruct said flow and for that we need at least its pid/tid in the perf stream. To single out such instruction tracing pmus, this patch introduces ITRACE PMU capability. The reason this is not part of RECORD_AUX record is that not all pmus capable of generating AUX data need this, and the opposite is *probably* also true. While sched_switch covers for most cases, there are two problems with it: the consumer will need to process events out of order (that is, having found RECORD_AUX, it will have to skip forward to the nearest sched_switch to figure out which task it was, then go back to the actual trace to decode it) and it completely misses the case when the tracing is enabled and disabled before sched_switch, for example, via PERF_EVENT_IOC_DISABLE.

perf: Add PERF_RECORD_SWITCH to indicate context switches There are already two events for context switches, namely the tracepoint sched:sched_switch and the software event context_switches. Unfortunately neither are suitable for use by non-privileged users for the purpose of synchronizing hardware trace data (e.g. Intel PT) to the context switch. Tracepoints are no good at all for non-privileged users because they need either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid <= -1. On the other hand, kernel software events need either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid <= 1. Now many distributions do default perf_event_paranoid to 1 making context_switches a contender, except it has another problem (which is also shared with sched:sched_switch) which is that it happens before perf schedules events out instead of after perf schedules events in. Whereas a privileged user can see all the events anyway, a non-privileged user only sees events for their own processes, in other words they see when their process was scheduled out not when it was scheduled in. That presents two problems to use the event: 1. the information comes too late, so tools have to look ahead in the event stream to find out what the current state is 2. if they are unlucky tracing might have stopped before the context-switches event is recorded. This new PERF_RECORD_SWITCH event does not have those problems and it also has a couple of other small advantages. It is easier to use because it is an auxiliary event (like mmap, comm and task events) which can be enabled by setting a single bit. It is smaller than sched:sched_switch and easier to parse. To make the event useful for privileged users also, if the context is cpu-wide then the event record will be PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE which is the same as PERF_RECORD_SWITCH except it also provides the next or previous pid/tid.

perf core: Separate accounting of contexts and real addresses in a stack trace The perf_sample->ip_callchain->nr value includes all the entries in the ip_callchain->ip[] array, real addresses and PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER,etc}, while what the user expects is that what is in the kernel.perf_event_max_stack sysctl or in the upcoming per event perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack knob be honoured in terms of IP addresses in the stack trace. So allocate a bunch of extra entries for contexts, and do the accounting via perf_callchain_entry_ctx struct members. A new sysctl, kernel.perf_event_max_contexts_per_stack is also introduced for investigating possible bugs in the callchain implementation by some arch.

perf: Support overwrite mode for the AUX area This adds support for overwrite mode in the AUX area, which means "keep collecting data till you're stopped", turning AUX area into a circular buffer, where new data overwrites old data. It does not depend on data buffer's overwrite mode, so that it doesn't lose sideband data that is instrumental for processing AUX data. Overwrite mode is enabled at mapping AUX area read only. Even though aux_tail in the buffer's user page might be user writable, it will be ignored in this mode. A PERF_RECORD_AUX with PERF_AUX_FLAG_OVERWRITE set is written to the perf data stream every time an event writes new data to the AUX area. The pmu driver might not be able to infer the exact beginning of the new data in each snapshot, some drivers will only provide the tail, which is aux_offset + aux_size in the AUX record. Consumer has to be able to tell the new data from the old one, for example, by means of time stamps if such are provided in the trace. Consumer is also responsible for disabling any events that might write to the AUX area (thus potentially racing with the consumer) before collecting the data.

powerpc/perf: Define big-endian version of perf_mem_data_src perf_mem_data_src is a union that is initialized in the kernel via the ->val field and accessed by userspace via the mem_xxx bitfields. For this to work correctly on big endian platforms, we need a big-endian definition for the bitfields. Currently on a big endian system, if a user requests PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_SRC (perf report -d), they will get the default value from perf_sample_data_init(), which is PERF_MEM_NA. The value for PERF_MEM_NA is constructed using shifts: /* TLB access */ #define PERF_MEM_TLB_NA 0x01 /* not available */ ... #define PERF_MEM_TLB_SHIFT 26 #define PERF_MEM_S(a, s) \ (((__u64)PERF_MEM_##a##_##s) << PERF_MEM_##a##_SHIFT) #define PERF_MEM_NA (PERF_MEM_S(OP, NA) |\ PERF_MEM_S(LVL, NA) |\ PERF_MEM_S(SNOOP, NA) |\ PERF_MEM_S(LOCK, NA) |\ PERF_MEM_S(TLB, NA)) Which works out as: ((0x01 << 0) | (0x01 << 5) | (0x01 << 19) | (0x01 << 24) | (0x01 << 26)) Which means the PERF_MEM_NA value comes out of the kernel as 0x5080021 in CPU endian. But then in the perf tool, the code uses the bitfields to inspect the value, and currently the bitfields are defined using little endian ordering. So eg. in perf_mem__tlb_scnprintf() we see: data_src->val = 0x5080021 op = 0x0 lvl = 0x0 snoop = 0x0 lock = 0x0 dtlb = 0x0 rsvd = 0x5080021 Because of the way the perf tool code is written this is still displayed to the user as "N/A", so there is no bug visible at the UI level. Currently there are no big endian architectures which export a meaningful value (ie. other than PERF_MEM_NA), so the extent of the bug on big endian platforms is that the PERF_MEM_NA value is exported incorrectly as described above. Subsequent patches will add support on big endian powerpc for populating the data source value. This patch does a minimal fix of adding big endian definition of the bitfields to match the values that are already exported by the kernel on big endian. And it makes no change on little endian.

Since a hit can have only one level add a new field that is an enumeration, not a bit field to describe the level. It can describe any level. Some numbers are also used to describe PMEM and LFB. Also add a new generic remote flag that can be combined with the generic level to signify a remote cache. And there is an extension field for the snoop indication to handle the Forward state. I didn't add a generic flag for hops because it's not needed for Skylake. I changed the existing encodings for older CPUs to also fill in the new level and remote fields.

perf/core: Define the common branch type classification It is often useful to know the branch types while analyzing branch data. For example, a call is very different from a conditional branch. Currently we have to look it up in binary while the binary may later not be available and even the binary is available but user has to take some time. It is very useful for user to check it directly in perf report. Perf already has support for disassembling the branch instruction to get the x86 branch type. To keep consistent on kernel and userspace and make the classification more common, the patch adds the common branch type classification in perf_event.h. The patch only defines a minimum but most common set of branch types. PERF_BR_UNKNOWN : unknown PERF_BR_COND :conditional PERF_BR_UNCOND : unconditional PERF_BR_IND : indirect PERF_BR_CALL : function call PERF_BR_IND_CALL : indirect function call PERF_BR_RET : function return PERF_BR_SYSCALL : syscall PERF_BR_SYSRET : syscall return PERF_BR_COND_CALL : conditional function call PERF_BR_COND_RET : conditional function return The patch also adds a new field type (4 bits) in perf_branch_entry to record the branch type. Since the disassembling of branch instruction needs some overhead, a new PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_TYPE_SAVE is introduced to indicate if it needs to disassemble the branch instruction and record the branch type. Change log: v10: Not changed. v9: Not changed. v8: Change PERF_BR_NONE to PERF_BR_UNKNOWN. No other change. v7: Just keep the most common branch types. Others are removed. v6: Not changed. v5: Not changed. The v5 patch series just change the userspace. v4: Comparing to previous version, the major changes are: 1. Remove the PERF_BR_JCC_FWD/PERF_BR_JCC_BWD, they will be computed later in userspace. 2. Remove the "cross" field in perf_branch_entry. The cross page computing will be done later in userspace.
