Add basic clang support in clang.cpp and test__clang() testcase. The
first testcase checks if builtin clang is able to generate LLVM IR.
tests/clang.c is a proxy. Real testcase resides in
utils/c++/clang-test.cpp in c++ and exports C interface to perf test
subsystem.
Test result:
$ perf test -v clang
51: builtin clang support :
51.1: Test builtin clang compile C source to IR :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 13215
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
Test builtin clang support subtest 0: Ok
Committer note:
Make sure you've enabled CLANG and LLVM builtin support by setting
the LIBCLANGLLVM variable on the make command line, e.g.:
make LIBCLANGLLVM=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin
Otherwise you'll get this when trying to do the 'perf test' call above:
# perf test clang
51: builtin clang support : Skip (not compiled in)

Perf hooks allow hooking user code at perf events. They can be used for
manipulation of BPF maps, taking snapshot and reporting results. In this
patch two perf hook points are introduced: record_start and record_end.
To avoid buggy user actions, a SIGSEGV signal handler is introduced into
'perf record'. It turns off perf hook if it causes a segfault and report
an error to help debugging.
A test case for perf hook is introduced.
Test result:
$ ./buildperf/perf test -v hook
50: Test perf hooks :
--- start ---

Before this patch perf panics if kptr_restrict is set to 1 and perf is
owned by root with suid set:
$ whoami
wangnan
$ ls -l ./perf
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 19781908 Sep 21 19:29 /home/wangnan/perf
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
1
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid
-1
$ ./perf record -a
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
$
The reason is that perf assumes it is allowed to read kptr from
/proc/kallsyms when euid is root, but in fact the kernel doesn't allow
reading kptr when euid and uid do not match with each other:
$ cp /bin/cat .
$ sudo chown root:root ./cat
$ sudo chmod u+s ./cat
$ cat /proc/kallsyms | grep do_fork
0000000000000000 T _do_fork <--- kptr is hidden even euid is root
$ sudo cat /proc/kallsyms | grep do_fork
ffffffff81080230 T _do_fork
See lib/vsprintf.c for kernel side code.
This patch fixes this problem by checking both uid and euid.

On ubuntu the internal kernel version code is different from what can
be retrived from uname:
$ uname -r
4.4.0-47-generic
$ cat /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 263192
#define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))
$ cat /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include/generated/utsrelease.h
#define UTS_RELEASE "4.4.0-47-generic"
#define UTS_UBUNTU_RELEASE_ABI 47
$ cat /proc/version_signature
Ubuntu 4.4.0-47.68-generic 4.4.24
The macro LINUX_VERSION_CODE is set to 4.4.24 (263192 == 0x40418), but
`uname -r` reports 4.4.0.
This mismatch causes LINUX_VERSION_CODE macro passed to BPF script become
an incorrect value, results in magic failure in BPF loading:
$ sudo ./buildperf/perf record -e ./tools/perf/tests/bpf-script-example.c ls
event syntax error: './tools/perf/tests/bpf-script-example.c'
\___ Failed to load program for unknown reason
According to Ubuntu document (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/FAQ), the
correct kernel version can be retrived through /proc/version_signature, which
is ubuntu specific.
This patch checks the existance of /proc/version_signature, and returns
version number through parsing this file instead of uname. Version string
is untouched (value returns from uname) because `uname -r` is required
to be consistence with path of kbuild directory in /lib/module.

Some arches may want to dynamically populate the table using regular
expressions on the instruction names to associate them with a set of
parsing/formatting/etc functions (struct ins_ops), so provide a fallback
for when the ins__find() method fails.
That fall back will be able to resize the arch->instructions, setting
arch->nr_instructions appropriately, helper functions to associate an
ins_ops to an instruction name, growing the arch->instructions if needed
and resorting it are provided, all the arch specific callback needs to
do is to decide if the missing instruction should be added to
arch->instructions with a ins_ops association.

The disasm_line::name field is always equal to ins::name, being used
just to locate the instruction's ins_ops from the per-arch instructions
table.
Eliminate this duplication, nuking that field and instead make
ins__find() return an ins_ops, store it in disasm_line::ins.ops, and
keep just in disasm_line::ins.name what was in disasm_line::name, this
way we end up not keeping a reference to entries in the per-arch
instructions table.
This in turn will help supporting multiple ways to manage the per-arch
instructions table, allowing resorting that array, for instance, when
the entries will move after references to its addresses were made. The
same problem is avoided when one grows the array with realloc.
So architectures simply keeping a constant array will work as well as
architectures building the table using regular expressions or other
logic that involves resorting the table.

Another step in supporting cross annotation.
The arch specific tables are put in:

which, so far, just plug instructions to a bunch of parsers/formatters,
but may have more as the need arises.
This is an alternative implementation to a previous attempt made by Ravi

With this patchkit it should be possible to collect a perf.data file on

Create some branch counters in per callchain list entry. Each counter
is for a branch flag. For example, predicted_count counts all the

It also provides functions to retrieve or print the values of counters
in callchain list.
Besides the counting for branch flags, it also counts and returns the

Since the branch ip has been added to call stack for easier browsing,
this patch adds more branch information. For example, add a flag to
indicate if this ip is a branch, and also add with the branch flag.
Then we can know if the cursor node represents a branch and know what
the branch flag it has.
The branch history code has a loop detection pass that removes loops. It
would be nice for knowing how many loops were removed then in next
steps, we can compute out the average number of iterations.
For example:
Before remove_loops(),
entry0: from = 0x100, to = 0x200
entry1: from = 0x300, to = 0x250
entry2: from = 0x300, to = 0x250
entry3: from = 0x300, to = 0x250
entry4: from = 0x700, to = 0x800
After remove_loops()
entry0: from = 0x100, to = 0x200
entry1: from = 0x300, to = 0x250
entry2: from = 0x700, to = 0x800
The original entry2 and entry3 are removed. So the number of iterations
(from = 0x300, to = 0x250) is equal to removed number + 1 (2 + 1).
iterations = removed number + 1;
average iteractions = Sum(iteractions) / number of samples
This formula ignores other cases, for example, iterations cross multiple
buffers and one buffer contains 2+ loops. Because in practice, it's good
enough.

For example, when collecting config items from user and system config

Markus reported that there's a weird behavior on perf top --hierarchy
regarding the column length.
Looking at the code, I found a dubious code which affects the symptoms.
When --hierarchy option is used, the last column length might be
inaccurate since it skips to update the length on leaf entries.
I cannot remember why it did and looks like a leftover from previous
version during the development.
Anyway, updating the column length often is not harmful. So let's move
the code out.

When the jit_buf_desc contains unwinding information, it is emitted as
eh_frame unwinding sections in the DSOs generated by perf inject.
The unwinding information is required to unwind of JITed code which do
not maintain the frame pointer register during function calls. It can
be emitted by V8 / Chromium when the --perf_prof_unwinding_info is
passed to V8.
The eh_frame and eh_frame_hdr sections are emitted immediately after the
.text.
The .eh_frame is aligned at a 8-byte boundary, and .eh_frame_hdr at a
4-byte one. Since size of the .eh_frame is required to be a multiple of
the word size, which means there will never be additional padding
between it and the .eh_frame_hdr on machines where the word size is 4 or
8 bytes.
However, additional padding might be inserted between .text and
.eh_frame to reach the correct alignment, which will always be 8 bytes,
also on 32bit machines. The reasoning behind this choice is that 4 extra
bytes of padding worst case are not a large cost for the advantage of
removing word-size dependent offset calculations when emitting the
jitdump.

when the --perf_prof_unwinding_info is passed.
A record of type jr_code_unwinding_info comes before the jr_code_load
it referred to and contains both the .eh_frame and .eh_frame_hdr.
The fields in the header have the following meaning:
* unwinding_size: size of the eh_frame and eh_frame_hdr, necessary
for distinguishing the content from the padding.
* eh_frame_hdr_size: as the name says.
* mapped_size: size of the payload that was in memory at runtime.
typically unwinding_size if the .eh_frame_hdr and .eh_frame were
mapped, or 0 if they weren't. It should always be the former case,
since the .eh_frame is guaranteed to be mapped in memory. However,
certain JITs might want to inject an .eh_frame_hdr with an empty LUT
to trigger fp-based unwinding fallback in libunwind. The only part
of the .eh_frame_hdr that libunwind reads from remote memory is the
LUT, and since there is none, mapping the unwinding info in memory
is not necessary, and 0 in this field signifies that it wasn't.
This practical hack allows to save bytes in code memory for those
JIT compilers that might or might not maintain a valid frame pointer.
The payload that follows is assumed to contain first the .eh_frame and
then the .eh_header_hdr, with no padding between the two.
