[ Upstream commit 143c99f6ac ]
For some cases, the callchain provided by the kernel may be empty. So,
the callchain ip filtering code will cause a crash if we do not check
whether the struct ip_callchain pointer is NULL before accessing any
members.
This can be observed on a powerpc64le system running Fedora 27 as shown
below.

On s390 this test case fails because the socket identifiction numbers
assigned to the CPU are higher than the CPU identification numbers.
F/ix this by adding the platform architecture into the perf data header

s390 specifics in process_cpu_topology().

For the cumulative output, we allocate the he_cache array based on the
--max-stack option value and populate it with data from 'callchain_cursor'.
The --max-stack option value does not ensure now the limit for number of
callchain_cursor nodes, so the cumulative iter code will allocate smaller array
than it's actually needed and cause above corruption.
I think the --max-stack limit does not apply here anyway, because we add
callchain data as normal hist entries, while the --max-stack control the limit
of single entry callchain depth.
Using the callchain_cursor.nr as he_cache array count to fix this. Also
removing struct hist_entry_iter::max_stack, because there's no longer any use
for it.
We need more fixes to ensure that the branch stack code follows properly the
logic of --max-stack, which is not the case at the moment.

[ Upstream commit ab6e9a9934 ]
The symbol search called by machine__find_kernel_symbol_by_name is using
internally arch__compare_symbol_names function to compare 2 symbol
names, because different archs have different ways of comparing symbols.
Mostly for skipping '.' prefixes and similar.
In test 1 when we try to find matching symbols in kallsyms and vmlinux,
by address and by symbol name. When either is found we compare the pair
symbol names by simple strcmp, which is not good enough for reasons
explained in previous paragraph.
On powerpc this can cause lockup, because even thought we found the
pair, the compared names are different and don't match simple strcmp.
Following code path is executed, that leads to lockup:
- we find the pair in kallsyms by sym->start
next_pair:
- we compare the names and it fails
- we find the pair by sym->name
- the pair addresses match so we call goto next_pair
because we assume the names match in this case

[ Upstream commit 249d98e567 ]
When setting the "dwarf" unwinder for a specific event and not
specifying the max-stack, the attr.sample_max_stack ended up using an
uninitialized callchain_param.max_stack, fix it by using designated
initializers for that callchain_param variable, zeroing all non
explicitely initialized struct members.
Here is what happened:
# perf trace -vv --no-syscalls --max-stack 4 -e probe_libc:inet_pton/call-graph=dwarf/ ping -6 -c 1 ::1

commit 91d29b288a upstream.
timestamp_insn_cnt is used to estimate the timestamp based on the number of
instructions since the last known timestamp.
If the estimate is not accurate enough decoding might not be correctly
synchronized with side-band events causing more trace errors.
However there are always timestamps following an overflow, so the
estimate is not needed and can indeed result in more errors.
Suppress the estimate by setting timestamp_insn_cnt to zero.

commit 63d8e38f6a upstream.
sync_switch is a facility to synchronize decoding more closely with the
point in the kernel when the context actually switched.
The flag when sync_switch is enabled was global to the decoding, whereas
it is really specific to the CPU.
The trace data for different CPUs is put on different queues, so add
sync_switch to the intel_pt_queue structure and use that in preference
to the global setting in the intel_pt structure.
That fixes problems decoding one CPU's trace because sync_switch was
disabled on a different CPU's queue.

In some situations the libdw unwinder stopped working properly. I.e.

But with libdw and without this patch this sample is not properly
unwound:

Debug output showed me that libdw found a module for the last frame
address, but it thinks it belongs to /usr/lib/ld-2.25.so. This patch
double-checks what libdw sees and what perf knows. If the mappings
mismatch, we now report the elf known to perf. This fixes the situation
above, and the libdw unwinder produces the same stack as libunwind.

[ Upstream commit 1deec1bd96 ]
When perf processes build-id event, it creates DSOs with the build-id.
But it didn't set the module short name (like '[module-name]') so when
processing a kernel mmap event of the module, it cannot found the DSO as
it only checks the short names.
That leads for perf to create a same DSO without the build-id info and
it'll lookup the system path even if the DSO is already in the build-id
cache. After kernel was updated, perf cannot find the DSO and cannot
show symbols in it anymore.
You can see this if you have an old data file (w/ old kernel version):
$ perf report -i perf.data.old -v |& grep scsi_mod
build id event received for /lib/modules/3.19.2-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/scsi/scsi_mod.ko.gz : cafe1ce6ca13a98a5d9ed3425cde249e57a27fc1
Failed to open /lib/modules/3.19.2-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/scsi/scsi_mod.ko.gz, continuing without symbols
...
The second message didn't show the build-id. With this patch:
$ perf report -i perf.data.old -v |& grep scsi_mod
build id event received for /lib/modules/3.19.2-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/scsi/scsi_mod.ko.gz: cafe1ce6ca13a98a5d9ed3425cde249e57a27fc1

...
Now it shows the build-id but still cannot load the symbol table. This
is a different problem which will be fixed in the next patch.

__perf_session__process_pipe_events reuses the same memory buffer to
process all events in the pipe.
When reordering is needed (e.g. -b option), events are not immediately
flushed, but kept around until reordering is possible, causing
memory corruption.
The problem is usually observed by a "Unknown sample error" output. It
can easily be reproduced by:
perf record -o - noploop | perf inject -b > output

[ Upstream commit 88b897a30c ]
This patch significantly improves the execution time of
perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events() when running perf record on systems
where processes have lots of threads.
It just happens that cat /proc/pid/maps support uses a O(N^2) algorithm to
generate each map line in the maps file. If you have 1000 threads, then you
have necessarily 1000 stacks. For each vma, you need to check if it
corresponds to a thread's stack. With a large number of threads, this can take
a very long time. I have seen latencies >> 10mn.
As of today, perf does not use the fact that a mapping is a stack, therefore we
can work around the issue by using /proc/pid/tasks/pid/maps. This entry does
not try to map a vma to stack and is thus much faster with no loss of
functonality.
The proc-map-timeout logic is kept in case users still want some upper limit.
In V2, we fix the file path from /proc/pid/tasks/pid/maps to actual
/proc/pid/task/pid/maps, tasks -> task. Thanks Arnaldo for catching this.
Committer note:
This problem seems to have been elliminated in the kernel since commit :
b18cb64ead ("fs/proc: Stop trying to report thread stacks").

[ Upstream commit e7ede72a6d ]
The current symbols__fixup_end() heuristic for the last entry in the rb
tree is suboptimal as it leads to not being able to recognize the symbol
in the call graph in a couple of corner cases, for example:
i) If the symbol has a start address (f.e. exposed via kallsyms)
that is at a page boundary, then the roundup(curr->start, 4096)
for the last entry will result in curr->start == curr->end with
a symbol length of zero.
ii) If the symbol has a start address that is shortly before a page
boundary, then also here, curr->end - curr->start will just be
very few bytes, where it's unrealistic that we could perform a
match against.
Instead, change the heuristic to roundup(curr->start, 4096) + 4096, so
that we can catch such corner cases and have a better chance to find
that specific symbol. It's still just best effort as the real end of the
symbol is unknown to us (and could even be at a larger offset than the
current range), but better than the current situation.
Alexei reported that he recently run into case i) with a JITed eBPF
program (these are all page aligned) as the last symbol which wasn't
properly shown in the call graph (while other eBPF program symbols in
the rb tree were displayed correctly). Since this is a generic issue,
lets try to improve the heuristic a bit.

returns the exit status, in above case 0xff00.

commit b581c01fff upstream.
On my Archlinux machine, perf faild to build like below:
CC scripts/perl/Perf-Trace-Util/Context.o
In file included from /usr/lib/perl5/core/perl/CORE/perl.h:3905:0,
from Context.xs:23:
/usr/lib/perl5/core/perl/CORE/inline.h: In function :
/usr/lib/perl5/core/perl/CORE/cop.h:612:13: warning: declaration of 'av'

from Context.xs:23:
/usr/lib/perl5/core/perl/CORE/inline.h:518:9: note:
shadowed declaration is here
AV *av;
^~
What I did to fix is adding '-Wno-shadow' as the error message said it's
the cause of the failure. Since it's from the perl (not perf) code
base, we don't have the control so I just wanted to ignore the warning
when compiling perl scripting code.
Committer note:
This also fixes the build on Fedora Rawhide.

commit ee14ac0ef6 upstream.
Intel PT uses IP compression based on the last IP. For decoding
purposes, 'last IP' is considered to be reset to zero whenever there is
a synchronization packet (PSB). The decoder wasn't doing that, and was
treating the zero value to mean that there was no last IP, whereas
compression can be done against the zero value. Fix by setting last_ip
to zero when a PSB is received and keep track of have_last_ip.

commit e1717e0485 upstream.
The June 2015 Intel SDM introduced IP Compression types 4 and 6. Refer
to section 36.4.2.2 Target IP (TIP) Packet - IP Compression.
Existing Intel PT packet decoder did not support type 4, and got type 6
wrong. Because type 3 and type 4 have the same number of bytes, the
packet 'count' has been changed from being the number of ip bytes to
being the type code. That allows the Intel PT decoder to correctly
decide whether to sign-extend or use the last ip. However that also
meant the code had to be adjusted in a number of places.
Currently hardware is not using the new compression types, so this fix
has no effect on existing hardware.

commit 22a9f41b55 upstream.
The readdir() function is thread safe as long as just one thread uses a
DIR, which is the case when parsing tracepoint event definitions, to
avoid breaking the build with glibc-2.23.90 (upcoming 2.24), use it
instead of readdir_r().
See: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/readdir.3.html
"However, in modern implementations (including the glibc implementation),
concurrent calls to readdir() that specify different directory streams
are thread-safe. In cases where multiple threads must read from the
same directory stream, using readdir() with external synchronization is
still preferable to the use of the deprecated readdir_r(3) function."
Noticed while building on a Fedora Rawhide docker container.
