[ Upstream commit cc437642255224e4140fed1f3e3156fc8ad91903 ]

In Python3, the result of PyModule_Create (called from
scripts/python/Perf-Trace-Util/Context.c) is not automatically added to
sys.modules.  See: https://bugs.python.org/issue4592

Below is the observed behavior without the fix:

  # ldd /usr/bin/perf | grep -i python
	libpython3.6m.so.1.0 =&gt; /usr/lib64/libpython3.6m.so.1.0 (0x00007f8e1dfb2000)

  # perf record /bin/false
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.015 MB perf.data (17 samples) ]

  # perf script -g python | cat
  generated Python script: perf-script.py

  # perf script -s ./perf-script.py
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "./perf-script.py", line 18, in &lt;module&gt;
      from perf_trace_context import *
  ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'perf_trace_context'
  Error running python script ./perf-script.py
  #

Committer notes:

To build with python3 use:

  $ make -C tools/perf PYTHON=python3

Use a non-const variable to pass the 'name' arg to
PyImport_AppendInittab(), as python2.6 has that as 'char *', which ends
up trowing this in some environments:

With Python3.  PyUnicode_FromStringAndSize is unsafe to call on attr and will
return NULL.  Use _PyBytes_FromStringAndSize (as with raw_buf).

Below is the observed behavior without the fix.  Note it is first necessary
to apply the prior fix (Add trace_context extension module to sys,modules):

  # ldd /usr/bin/perf | grep -i python
          libpython3.6m.so.1.0 =&gt; /usr/lib64/libpython3.6m.so.1.0 (0x00007f8e1dfb2000)

  # perf record -e raw_syscalls:sys_enter /bin/false
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.018 MB perf.data (21 samples) ]

  # perf script -g python | cat
  generated Python script: perf-script.py

  # perf script -s ./perf-script.py
  in trace_begin

Where we don't have "raw_syscalls:sys_enter", so we need to look for a
"*syscalls:sys_enter*" to initialize the offsets for the
__augmented_syscalls__ evsel, which is the case with etcsnoop, that was
segfaulting, fixed:

[ Upstream commit 1c3b28fd7ae80c8f6bf1a09e1848e20a953c9ce4 ]

Since it is not yet that generally available, avoid testing for the
presence of libcoresight in the fast path test-all.bin feature test.

  # dnf search opencsd
  No matches found.
  # dnf search OpenCSD
  No matches found.
  # cat /etc/fedora-release
  Fedora release 29 (Twenty Nine)
  #

I.e. right now, in my system test-all.bin is failing all the time since
Fedora29 doesn't have libopencsd available:

  $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
  In file included from test-all.c:174:
  test-libopencsd.c:2:10: fatal error: opencsd/c_api/opencsd_c_api.h: No such file or directory
   #include &lt;opencsd/c_api/opencsd_c_api.h&gt;
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  compilation terminated.

See:

  6ab2b762befd ("perf build: Disable libbabeltrace check by default")

For the rationale, as soon as libopencsd becomes more generally packaged
and available, we do the same thing we did with babeltrace, enabling it
by default, as done in:

  24787afbcd01 ("perf tools: Enable LIBBABELTRACE by default")

For now, to explicitely ask for opencsd, make sure you have it installed
and use:

   make -C tools/perf CORESIGHT=1

The feature test output will be there as an empty file:

  $ ls -la /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libopencsd.make.output

Because the binary used for the feature check was successfully built:

  $ ls -la /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libopencsd.bin
  -rwxrwxr-x. 1 acme acme 18336 Feb 12 14:49 /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libopencsd.bin
  $ ldd /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libopencsd.bin
	linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fffe18cc000)
	libopencsd_c_api.so.0 =&gt; /lib64/libopencsd_c_api.so.0 (0x00007fb8e67f6000)
	libopencsd.so.0 =&gt; /lib64/libopencsd.so.0 (0x00007fb8e676f000)
	libc.so.6 =&gt; /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007fb8e65a9000)
	libstdc++.so.6 =&gt; /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00007fb8e6411000)
	libm.so.6 =&gt; /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x00007fb8e628d000)
	libgcc_s.so.1 =&gt; /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007fb8e6272000)
	/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fb8e6828000)
  $

And the resulting perf binary will be linked with it:

  -rw-rw-r--. 1 acme acme 0 Feb 12 14:49 /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libopencsd.make.output
  $ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep opencsd
	libopencsd_c_api.so.0 =&gt; /lib64/libopencsd_c_api.so.0 (0x00007fd43097f000)
	libopencsd.so.0 =&gt; /lib64/libopencsd.so.0 (0x00007fd4308f8000)
  $

To make sure this gets built before pushing things upstream I have a
ubuntu:19.04-x-arm64 container that has:

  [root@quaco x-arm64]# grep CORESIGHT Dockerfile
  ENV EXTRA_MAKE_ARGS=CORESIGHT=1
  [root@quaco x-arm64]#

So that I always build with libopencsd before pushing things upstream.

[ Upstream commit 2187d87eacd46f6214ce3dc9cfd7a558375a4153 ]

On IBM z13 machine types 2964 and 2965 the descriptor
sizes for sampling and diagnostic sampling entries
might be missing in the trailer entry and are set to zero.

This leads to a perf report failure when processing diagnostic
sampling entries.

This patch adds missing descriptor sizes when the trailer entry
contains zero for these fields.

Output before:
  [root@s38lp82 perf]#  ./perf report --stdio | fgrep Samples
  0xabbf0 [0x8]: failed to process type: 68
  Error:
  failed to process sample
  [root@s38lp82 perf]#

Output after:
  [root@s38lp82 perf]#  ./perf report --stdio | fgrep Samples
  # Total Lost Samples: 0
  # Samples: 3K of event 'SF_CYCLES_BASIC_DIAG'
  # Samples: 162  of event 'CF_DIAG'
  [root@s38lp82 perf]#

Check for that and return NULL instead.

This problem was introduced recently, the other codepaths leading to
thread_trace__files_entry() check for negative fds, like thread__fd_path(),
but we need to do it at thread_trace__files_entry() as more users are now
calling it directly.

When introducing the possibility for selecting if the common prefix to
options such as the waitid ones, i.e. all 'waitid' options start with
'W', so, to make it make it more compact if configured to suppress it,
'perf trace' will do so, other examples include mmap's PROT_ prefix for
its 'prot' argument, etc, which, when showing the syscall argument name
ends up producing duplicated info that clutters the screen, i.e.:

  # perf trace -e mmap --max-events 2 sleep 1
     0.000 ( 0.014 ms): sleep/20886 mmap(len: 112595, prot: PROT_READ, flags: MAP_PRIVATE, fd: 3) = 0x7f3e986d2000
     0.041 ( 0.005 ms): sleep/20886 mmap(len: 8192, prot: PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, flags: MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS) = 0x7f3e986d0000
  #

So it is possible to suppress that and make it more compact by having
this in your ~/.perfconfig:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [trace]
	show_prefix = no
  #

  # perf trace -e mmap --max-events 2 sleep 1
     0.000 ( 0.014 ms): sleep/8009 mmap(len: 112595, prot: READ, flags: PRIVATE, fd: 3) = 0x7ff2373de000
     0.040 ( 0.005 ms): sleep/8009 mmap(len: 8192, prot: READ|WRITE, flags: PRIVATE|ANONYMOUS) = 0x7ff2373dc000
  #

To have it look more like strace's output, we instead want to suppress
the arg name and show the prefix, so use:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [trace]
	show_prefix = yes
	show_arg_names = no
  #
  # perf trace -e mmap --max-events 2 sleep 1
     0.000 ( 0.006 ms): sleep/15513 mmap(NULL, 112595, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 3, 0) = 0x7f7a9b6d3000
     0.020 ( 0.002 ms): sleep/15513 mmap(NULL, 8192, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS) = 0x7f7a9b6d1000
  #

When this logic was introduced a bug came with it when processing the
waitid 'option' arg that ended up expecting 3 strings when just two were
being provided, fix it.

[ Upstream commit aa8f9c517ebce7a0959da064ef2660ea03f133f8 ]

Since we need it to resolve the AIO symbols, otherwise we fail with:

  $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
  /usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccEqrj36.o: undefined reference to symbol 'aio_return64@@GLIBC_2.2.5'
  /usr/bin/ld: //usr/lib64/librt.so.1: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line
  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
  $

When we added the aio support in 'perf record' only the test-libaio.bin
target got the -lrt, i.e. the feature detection slow path. Fix it.

<title>perf report: Don't shadow inlined symbol with different addr range</title>

[ Upstream commit 7346195e8643482968f547483e0d823ec1982fab ]

We can't assume inlined symbols with the same name are equal, because
their address range may be different. This will cause the symbols with
different addresses be shadowed when adding to the hist entry, and lead
to ERANGE error when checking the symbol address during sample parse,
the addr should be within the range of [sym.start, sym.end].

The error message is like: "0x36aea60 [0x8]: failed to process type: 68".

The second parameter of symbol__new() is the length of the fake symbol
for the inline frame, which is the subtraction of the end and start
address of base_sym.

<title>perf test: Fix failure of 'evsel-tp-sched' test on s390</title>

[ Upstream commit 03d309711d687460d1345de8a0363f45b1c8cd11 ]

Commit 489338a717a0 ("perf tests evsel-tp-sched: Fix bitwise operator")
causes test case 14 "Parse sched tracepoints fields" to fail on s390.

This test succeeds on x86.

In fact this test now fails on all architectures with type char treated
as type unsigned char.

The root cause is the signed-ness of character arrays in the tracepoints
sched_switch for structure members prev_comm and next_comm.

On s390 the output of:

 [root@m35lp76 perf]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/format
 name: sched_switch
 ID: 287
 format:
   field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2;	signed:0;
   ...
   field:char prev_comm[16]; offset:8; size:16;	signed:0;
   ...
   field:char next_comm[16]; offset:40; size:16; signed:0;

reveals the character arrays prev_comm and next_comm are per
default unsigned char and have values in the range of 0..255.

On x86 both fields are signed as this output shows:
 [root@f29]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/format
 name: sched_switch
 ID: 287
 format:
   field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2;	signed:0;
   ...
   field:char prev_comm[16]; offset:8; size:16;	signed:1;
   ...
   field:char next_comm[16]; offset:40; size:16; signed:1;

and the character arrays prev_comm and next_comm are per default signed
char and have values in the range of -1..127.  The implementation of
type char is architecture specific.

Since the character arrays in both tracepoints sched_switch and
sched_wakeup should contain ascii characters, simply omit the check for
signedness in the test case.

Output before:

  [root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf test -F 14
  14: Parse sched tracepoints fields                        :
  --- start ---
  sched:sched_switch: "prev_comm" signedness(0) is wrong, should be 1
  sched:sched_switch: "next_comm" signedness(0) is wrong, should be 1
  sched:sched_wakeup: "comm" signedness(0) is wrong, should be 1
  ---- end ----
  14: Parse sched tracepoints fields                        : FAILED!
  [root@m35lp76 perf]#

Output after:

  [root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf test -Fv 14
  14: Parse sched tracepoints fields                        :
  --- start ---
  ---- end ----
