The soft maximum number of open files for a calling process is 1024,
which is defined as INR_OPEN_CUR in include/uapi/linux/fs.h, and the
hard maximum number of open files for a calling process is 4096, which
is defined as INR_OPEN_MAX in include/uapi/linux/fs.h.
Both INR_OPEN_CUR and INR_OPEN_MAX are used to limit the value of
RLIMIT_NOFILE in include/asm-generic/resource.h.
And the soft maximum number finally decides the limitation of the
maximum files which are allowed to be opened.
That is to say a process can use at most 1024 file descriptors for its
o pened files, or an EMFILE error will happen.
This error can be fixed by increasing the soft maximum number, under the
constraint that the soft maximum number can not exceed the hard maximum
number, or both soft and hard maximum number should be increased
simultaneously with privilege.
For perf sched replay, it uses sys_perf_event_open to create the file
descriptor for each of the tasks in order to handle information of perf
events.
That is to say each task needs a unique file descriptor. In x86_64,
there may be over 1024 or 4096 tasks correspoinding to the record in
perf.data, which causes that no enough file descriptors can be used.
As a result, EMFILE error happens and stops the replay process. To solve
this problem, we adaptively increase the soft and hard maximum number of
open files with a '-f' option.
Example:
Test environment: x86_64 with 160 cores
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
163840
$ cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max

Since there is sem_wait for each task in the wait_for_tasks(), e.g.
sem_wait(&task->work_done_sem).
The sem_wait can continue only when work_done_sem is greater than 0, or
it will be blocked.
For perf sched replay, one task may sem_post the work_done_sem of
another task, which causes the work_done_sem of that task processed in a
reasonable sequence, e.g. sem_post, sem_wait, sem_wait, sem_post...
This sequence simulates the sched process of the running tasks at the
time when perf sched record runs.
As a result, all the tasks are required and their threads must be
successfully created.
If any one (task A) of the tasks fails to create its thread, then
another task (task B), whose work_done_sem needs sem_post from that
failed task A, may likely block itself due to seg_wait.
And this is a dead halt, since task B's thread_func cannot continue at
all.
To solve this problem, perf sched replay should exit once any task fails
to create its thread.
Example:
Test environment: x86_64 with 160 cores
Before this patch:
$ perf sched replay
...
Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with -1 (Too many open
files)
------------------------------------------------------------ <- dead halt

$ perf sched replay
...
task 1551 ( <unknown>: 0), nr_events: 10
Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with -1 (Too many open

$
As shown above, perf sched replay finishes the process after printing an
error message and does not block itself.

The pr_err in self_open_counters() prints error message to stderr.
Unlike stdout, stderr uses memory buffer on the stack of each calling
process.
The pr_err in self_open_counters() works in a thread called thread_func
created in function create_tasks, which concurrently creates
sched->nr_tasks threads.
If the error happens and pr_err prints the error message in each of
these threads, the stack size of the perf process (default is 8192
kbytes) will quickly run out and the segmentation fault will happen
then.
To solve this problem, pr_err with self_open_counters() should be moved
from newly created threads to the old main thread of the perf process.
Then the pr_err can work in a stable situation without the strange
segmentation fault problem.

Test environment: x86_64 with 160 cores

Although the memory of pid_to_task can be allocated via calloc according
to the value of /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max, it cannot handle the case when
pid_max is changed after 'perf sched record' has created its perf.data.
If the new pid_max configured in 'perf sched replay' is smaller than the
old pid_max configured in 'perf sched record', then it will cause the
assertion failure problem.
To solve this problem, we realloc the memory of pid_to_task stepwise
once the passed-in pid parameter in register_pid is larger than the
current pid_max.
Example:
Test environment: x86_64 with 160 cores

The current memory allocation of struct task_desc *pid_to_task[MAX_PID]
is in a permanent and preset way, and it has two problems:
Problem 1: If the pid_max, which is the max number of pids in the
system, is much smaller than MAX_PID (1024*1000), then it causes a waste
of stack memory. This may happen in the case where the number of cpu
cores is much smaller than 1000.
Problem 2: If the pid_max is changed from the default value to a value
larger than MAX_PID, then it will cause assertion failure problem. The
maximum value of pid_max can be set to pid_max_max (see pidmap_init
defined in kernel/pid.c), which equals to PID_MAX_LIMIT. In x86_64,
PID_MAX_LIMIT is 4*1024*1024 (defined in include/linux/threads.h). This
value is much larger than MAX_PID, and will take up 32768 Kbytes
(4*1024*1024*8/1024) for memory allocation of pid_to_task, which is much
larger than the default 8192 Kbytes of the stack size of calling
process.
Due to these two problems, we use calloc to allocate the memory of
pid_to_task dynamically.
Example:
Test environment: x86_64 with 160 cores
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
163840
$ echo 1025000 > /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
1025000

the value of MAX_PID (1024*1000).

Current MAX_PID is only 65536, which will cause assertion failure problem
when CPU cores are more than 64 in x86_64.
This is because the pid_max value in x86_64 is at least
PIDS_PER_CPU_DEFAULT * num_possible_cpus() (see function pidmap_init
defined in kernel/pid.c), where PIDS_PER_CPU_DEFAULT is 1024 (defined in
include/linux/threads.h).
Thus for MAX_PID = 65536, the correspoinding CPU cores are
65536/1024=64. This is obviously not enough at all for x86_64, and will
cause an assertion failure problem due to BUG_ON(pid >= MAX_PID) in the
codes.
We increase MAX_PID value from 65536 to 1024*1000, which can be used in
x86_64 with 1000 cores.
This number is finally decided according to the limitation of stack size
of calling process.
Use 'ulimit -a', the result shows the stack size of any process is 8192
Kbytes, which is defined in include/uapi/linux/resource.h (#define
_STK_LIM (8*1024*1024)).
Thus we choose a large enough value for MAX_PID, and make it satisfy to
the limitation of the stack size, i.e., making the perf process take up
a memory space just smaller than 8192 Kbytes.
We have calculated and tested that 1024*1000 is OK for MAX_PID.
This means perf sched replay can now be used with at most 1000 cores in
x86_64 without any assertion failure problem.

Test environment: x86_64 with 160 cores

Currently it ignores operator priority and just sets processed args as a
right operand. But it could result in priority inversion in case that
the right operand is also a operator arg and its priority is lower.
For example, following print format is from new kmem events.
"page=%p", REC->pfn != -1UL ? (((struct page *)(0xffffea0000000000UL)) + (REC->pfn)) : ((void *)0)
But this was treated as below:
REC->pfn != ((null - 1UL) ? ((struct page *)0xffffea0000000000UL + REC->pfn) : (void *) 0)
In this case, the right arg was '?' operator which has lower priority.
But it just sets the whole arg so making the output confusing - page was
always 0 or 1 since that's the result of logical operation.
With this patch, it can handle it properly like following:
((REC->pfn != (null - 1UL)) ? ((struct page *)0xffffea0000000000UL + REC->pfn) : (void *) 0)

Enable perf script to use perf.data when it is not owned by current user
or root. Change the short option name of --fields to -F to avoid confusion
with --force.
Example:
# perf record ls
# chown Yunlong.Song:Yunlong.Song perf.data
# ls -al perf.data
-rw------- 1 Yunlong.Song Yunlong.Song 28360 Apr 2 14:53 perf.data

Before this patch:
# perf script
File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
# perf script -f
Error: switch `f' requires a value
usage: perf script [<options>]
or: perf script [<options>] record <script> [<record-options>] <command>
or: perf script [<options>] report <script> [script-args]

or: perf script [<options>] <top-script> [script-args]
-f, --fields <str> comma separated output fields prepend with
'type:'. Valid types: hw,sw,trace,raw. Fields:
comm,tid,pid,time,cpu,event,trace,ip,sym,dso,addr,symoff,period
As shown above, the -f option does not work at all. And -f is already
taken up by --fields, which makes --force confused, so change the short
option name of --fields to -F like what other perf commands do (e.g.
perf report -F) and use -f as the short option name of --force.

Fix 'perf probe' to track down unnamed union/structure members.
perf probe did not track down the tree of unnamed union/structure
members, since it just failed to find given "name" in a parent
structure/union. To solve this issue, I've introduced 2 changes.
- Fix die_find_member() to track down the type-DIE if it is
unnamed, and if it contains the specified member, returns the
unnamed member.
(note that we don't return found member, since unnamed member
has the offset in the parent structure)
- Fix convert_variable_fields() to track down the unnamed union/
structure (one-by-one).
With this patch, perf probe can access unnamed fields:
-----
#./perf probe -nfx ./perf lock__delete ops 'locked_ops=ops->locked.ops'
Added new event:
probe_perf:lock__delete (on lock__delete in /home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf with ops locked_ops=ops->locked.ops)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_perf:lock__delete -aR sleep 1

As these can be obtained from the ordered_events pointer, via
container_of, reducing the cross section of ordered_samples.
These were added to ordered_samples in:
commit b7b61cbebd
Author: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
Date: Tue Mar 3 11:58:45 2015 -0300
perf ordered_events: Shorten function signatures
By keeping pointers to machines, evlist and tool in ordered_events.
But that was more a transitional patch while moving stuff out from
perf_session.c to ordered_events.c and possibly not even needed by then,
as we could use the container_of() method and instead of having the
nr_unordered_samples stats in events_stats, we can have it in
ordered_samples.

Even when it is not used to actually reorder events, some of its fields
are used, like session->ordered_events->tool, to shorten function
signatures where tool, for instance, was being passed, as the tool is
needed for the ordered_events code, we need it there and might as well
use it for other perf_session needs.
This fixes a problem where 'perf script' had some condition that made
session->ordered_events not to be initialized even with its
script->tool ordered_events related flags asking for it to be, which
looks like another bug and needs to be investigated further.
Always initializing session->ordered_events at least leaves the current
assumptions in place, so do it now.

363b785f38 added synthesized fork events and set a thread's parent id to
itself. Since we are already processing /proc/<pid>/status the ppid can
be determined properly. Make it so.

Rather than parsing /proc/pid/status file one line at a time, read it
into a buffer in one shot and search for all strings in one pass.
tgid conversion also simplified -- removing the isspace walk. As noted
by Arnaldo those are not needed for atoi == strtol calls.

Commit 2e77784bb7 ("perf callchain: Move cpumode resolve code to
add_callchain_ip") promised "No change in behavior.".
As this commit breaks callchains on s390x (symbols not getting resolved,
observed when profiling the kernel), this statement is wrong. The cpumode
must be kept when iterating over all ips, otherwise the default
(PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER) will be used by error.

Disabling libbabeltrace check by default and replacing the
NO_LIBBABELTRACE make variable with LIBBABELTRACE.
Users wanting the libbabeltrace feature need to build via:
$ make LIBBABELTRACE=1
The reason for this is that the libababeltrace interface we use (version
1.3) hasn't been packaged/released yet, thus the failing feature check
only slows down build and confuses other (non CTF) developers.

Guilherme Cox found that:
There is, however, a potential bug if there is an item with code zero
that is not the first one in the symbol list, since eval_flag(..)
returns 0 when it doesn't find anything.
That is, if you have the following enums:
enum {
FOO_START = 0,
FOO_GO = 1,
FOO_END = 2
}
and then have:
__print_symbolic(foo, FOO_GO, "go", FOO_START, "start",
FOO_END, "end")
If none of the enums are known to pevent, then eval_flag() will return
zero, and it will match it to the first item in the list, which would be
FOO_GO, which is not zero.
Luckily, in most cases, the first element would be zero, and the parsing
would match out of sheer luck.

perf trace: Handle multiple threads better wrt syscalls being intermixed
Introduced a bug where it considered the number of bytes output directly
to the output file when formatting the syscall entry buffer that is
stored to be finally printed at syscall exit, ending up leaving garbage
at the start of syscalls that appeared while another syscall was being
processed, in another thread. Fix it.
Example of garbage in the output before this patch:

The 'record' and 'top' tools already allow a user to specify a CSV of
pids and/or tids of tasks to collect data.
Add those options to the 'report' and 'script' analysis commands to only
consider samples related to the given pids/tids.
This is also inline with the existing comm option.

When a event PADDING is hit (a deleted event that is still in the ring
buffer), translate_data() sets the length of the padding and also updates
the data pointer which is passed back to the caller.
This is unneeded because the caller also updates the data pointer with
the passed back length. translate_data() should not update the pointer,
only set the length.

When a plugin option is defined, by default it is a boolean (true or false).
If the option is something else, then it needs to set its "value" field to
a default string other than NULL (can be just "").
If the value is not set then the option is considered boolean, and the
updating of the option value will be handled accordingly.
