2024-10-30perf arm-spe: Use old behavior when opening old SPE filesJames Clark
Since the linked commit, we stopped interpreting data source if the perf.data file doesn't have the new metadata version. This means that perf c2c will show no samples in this case. Keep the old behavior so old files can be opened, but also still show the new warning that updating might improve the decoding. Also re-write the warning to be more concise and specific to a user.

2024-10-28perf test: Display number of active running testsIan Rogers
Before polling or sleeping to wait for a test to complete, print out ": Running (<num> active)" where the number of active tests is determined by iterating over the tests and seeing which return false for check_if_command_finished. The line erasing and printing out only occur if the number of runnings tests changes to avoid the line flickering excessively. Knowing tests are running allows a user to know a test is running and in parallel mode how many of the tests are waiting to complete. If color mode is disabled then avoid displaying the "Running" message as deleting the line isn't reliable.

2024-10-23perf disasm: Use disasm_line__free() to properly free disasm_lineLi Huafei
symbol__disassemble_capstone_powerpc() goto the 'err' label when it failed in the loop that created disasm_line, and then used free() directly to free disasm_line. Since the structure disasm_line contains members that allocate memory dynamically, this can result in a memory leak. In fact, we can simply break the loop when it fails in the middle of the loop, and disasm_line__free() will then be called to properly free the created line. Other error paths do not need to consider freeing disasm_line.

2024-10-22perf tools: Check fallback error and orderNamhyung Kim
The perf_event_open might fail due to various reasons, so blindly reducing precise_ip level might not be the best way to deal with it. It seems the kernel return -EOPNOTSUPP when PMU doesn't support the given precise level. Let's try again with the correct error code. This caused a problem on AMD, as it stops on precise_ip of 2 for IBS but user events with exclude_kernel=1 cannot make progress. Let's add the evsel__handle_error_quirks() to this case specially. I plan to work on the kernel side to improve this situation but it'd still need some special handling for IBS.

2024-10-22perf tools: Detect missing kernel features properlyNamhyung Kim
The evsel__detect_missing_features() is to check if the attributes of the evsel is supported or not. But it checks the attribute based on the given evsel, it might miss something if the attr doesn't have the bit or give incorrect results if the event is special. Also it maintains the order of the feature that was added to the kernel which means it can assume older features should be supported once it detects the current feature is working. To minimized the confusion and to accurately check the kernel features, I think it's better to use a software event and go through all the features at once. Also make the function static since it's only used in evsel.c.

2024-10-22perf tools: Do not set exclude_guest for precise_ipNamhyung Kim
It seems perf sets the exclude_guest bit because of Intel PEBS implementation which uses a virtual address. IIUC now kernel disables PEBS when it goes to the guest mode regardless of this bit so we don't need to set it explicitly. At least for the other archs/vendors. I found the commit 1342798cc13e set the exclude_guest for precise_ip in the tool and the commit 20b279ddb38c added kernel side enforcement which was reverted by commit a706d965dcfd later. Actually it doesn't set the exclude_guest for the default event (cycles:P) already. $ grep -m1 vendor /proc/cpuinfo vendor_id : GenuineIntel $ perf record -e cycles:P true [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.002 MB perf.data (9 samples) ] $ perf evlist -v | tr ',' '\n' | grep -e exclude -e precise precise_ip: 3 But having lower 'p' modifier set the bit for some reason. $ perf record -e cycles:pp true [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.002 MB perf.data (9 samples) ] $ perf evlist -v | tr ',' '\n' | grep -e exclude -e precise precise_ip: 2 exclude_guest: 1 Actually AMD IBS suffers from this because it doesn't support excludes and having this bit effectively disables new features in the current implementation (due to the missing feature check). $ grep -m1 vendor /proc/cpuinfo vendor_id : AuthenticAMD $ perf record -W -e cycles:p -vv true 2>&1 | grep switching switching off PERF_FORMAT_LOST support switching off weight struct support switching off bpf_event switching off ksymbol switching off cloexec flag switching off mmap2 switching off exclude_guest, exclude_host By not setting exclude_guest, we can fix this inconsistency and the troubles.

2024-10-22perf tools: Don't set attr.exclude_guest by defaultNamhyung Kim
The exclude_guest in the event attribute is to limit profiling in the host environment. But I'm not sure why we want to set it by default cause we don't care about it in most cases and I feel like it just makes new PMU implementation complicated. Of course it's useful for perf kvm command so I added the exclude_GH_default variable to preserve the old behavior for perf kvm and other commands like perf record and stat won't set the exclude bit. This is helpful for AMD IBS case since having exclude_guest bit will clear new feature bit due to the missing feature check logic. $ sysctl kernel.perf_event_paranoid kernel.perf_event_paranoid = 0 $ perf record -W -e ibs_op// -vv true 2>&1 | grep switching switching off PERF_FORMAT_LOST support switching off weight struct support switching off bpf_event switching off ksymbol switching off cloexec flag switching off mmap2 switching off exclude_guest, exclude_host Intestingly, I found it sets the exclude_bit if "u" modifier is used.

When tried to probe symbol "print_data(int)", the log shows: Symbol print_data(int) address found : afc The found address is 0xafc - which is right with verifying the output result from nm. Afterwards when write event, the command uses offset 0xb38 in the last log, which is a wrong address. The dwarf_diename() gets a common function name, in above case, it returns string "print_data". As a result, the tool parses the offset based on the common name. This leads to probe at the wrong symbol "print_data(Point&)". To fix the issue, use the die_get_linkage_name() function to retrieve the distinct linkage name - this is the mangled name for the C++ case. Based on this unique name, the tool can get a correct offset for probing. Based on DWARF doc, it is possible the linkage name is missed in the DIE, it rolls back to use dwarf_diename().
