bpf tools: Improve libbpf error reporting
In this patch, a series of libbpf specific error numbers and
libbpf_strerror() are introduced to help reporting errors.
Functions are updated to pass correct the error number through the
CHECK_ERR() macro.
All users of bpf_object__open{_buffer}() and bpf_program__title() in
perf are modified accordingly. In addition, due to the error codes
changing, bpf__strerror_load() is also modified to use them.
bpf__strerror_head() is also changed accordingly so it can parse libbpf
errors. bpf_loader_strerror() is introduced for that purpose, and will
be improved by the following patch.
load_program() is improved not to dump log buffer if it is empty. log
buffer is also used to deduce whether the error was caused by an invalid
program or other problem.
v1 -> v2:
- Using macro for error code.
- Fetch error message based on array index, eliminate for-loop.
- Use log buffer to detect the reason of failure. 3 new error code
are introduced to replace LIBBPF_ERRNO__LOAD.
In v1:
# perf record -e ./test_ill_program.o ls
event syntax error: './test_ill_program.o'
\___ Failed to load program: Validate your program and check 'license'/'version' sections in your object
SKIP
# perf record -e ./test_kversion_nomatch_program.o ls

SKIP
# perf record -e ./test_big_program.o ls

perf probe: Cleanup find_perf_probe_point_from_map to reduce redundancy
In find_perf_probe_point_from_map(), the 'ret' variable is initialized
with -ENOENT but overwritten by the return code of
kernel_get_symbol_address_by_name(), and after that it is re-initialized
with -ENOENT again.
Setting ret=-ENOENT twice looks a bit redundant. This avoids the
overwriting and just returns -ENOENT if some error happens to simplify
the code.

perf annotate: Inform the user about objdump failures in --stdio
When the browser fails to annotate it is difficult for users to find out
what went wrong.
Add some errors for objdump failures that are displayed in the UI.
Note it would be even better to handle these errors smarter, like
falling back to the binary when the debug info is somehow corrupted. But
for now just giving a better error is an improvement.
Committer note:
This works for --stdio, where errors just scroll by the screen:
# perf annotate --stdio intel_idle

And with that one can use that command line to try to find out more about what
happened instead of getting a blank screen, an improvement.
We need tho to improve this further to get it to work with other UIs, like
--tui and --gtk, where it continues showing a blank screen, no messages, as
the pr_err() used is enough just for --stdio.

In most of the test-*.bin rules in build/feature/Makefile, we use the BUILD
macro which always sends in CFLAGS and LDFLAGS. The libiberty build line
however doesn't use the BUILD macro and thus needs to send in CFLAGS and
LDFLAGS explicitly. Without this, when using custom CFLAGS/LDFLAGS, libiberty
fails to be detected and the perf link fails with something like:

perf tools: Compile scriptlets to BPF objects when passing '.c' to --event
This patch provides infrastructure for passing source files to --event
directly using:
# perf record --event bpf-file.c command
This patch does following works:
1) Allow passing '.c' file to '--event'. parse_events_load_bpf() is
expanded to allow caller tell it whether the passed file is source
file or object.
2) llvm__compile_bpf() is called to compile the '.c' file, the result
is saved into memory. Use bpf_object__open_buffer() to load the
in-memory object.
Introduces a bpf-script-example.c so we can manually test it:
# perf record --clang-opt "-DLINUX_VERSION_CODE=0x40200" --event ./bpf-script-example.c sleep 1
Note that '--clang-opt' must put before '--event'.
Futher patches will merge it into a testcase so can be tested automatically.

perf bpf: Attach eBPF filter to perf event
This is the final patch which makes basic BPF filter work. After
applying this patch, users are allowed to use BPF filter like:
# perf record --event ./hello_world.o ls
A bpf_fd field is appended to 'struct evsel', and setup during the
callback function add_bpf_event() for each 'probe_trace_event'.
PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF ioctl is used to attach eBPF program to a newly
created perf event. The file descriptor of the eBPF program is passed to
perf record using previous patches, and stored into evsel->bpf_fd.
It is possible that different perf event are created for one kprobe
events for different CPUs. In this case, when trying to call the ioctl,
EEXIST will be return. This patch doesn't treat it as an error.
Committer note:
The bpf proggie used so far:
__attribute__((section("fork=_do_fork"), used))
int fork(void *ctx)
{
return 0;
}
char _license[] __attribute__((section("license"), used)) = "GPL";
int _version __attribute__((section("version"), used)) = 0x40300;
failed to produce any samples, even with forks happening and it being
running in system wide mode.
That is because now the filter is being associated, and the code above
always returns zero, meaning that all forks will be probed but filtered
away ;-/
Change it to 'return 1;' instead and after that:
# trace --no-syscalls --event /tmp/foo.o
0.000 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(
ffffffff8109be30))
2.333 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(

4.550 perf_bpf_probe:fork:(

And it works with all tools, including 'perf trace'.

perf bpf: Collect perf_evsel in BPF object files
This patch creates a 'struct perf_evsel' for every probe in a BPF object
file(s) and fills 'struct evlist' with them. The previously introduced
dummy event is now removed. After this patch, the following command:
# perf record --event filter.o ls
Can trace on each of the probes defined in filter.o.
The core of this patch is bpf__foreach_tev(), which calls a callback
function for each 'struct probe_trace_event' event for a bpf program
with each associated file descriptors. The add_bpf_event() callback
creates evsels by calling parse_events_add_tracepoint().
Since bpf-loader.c will not be built if libbpf is turned off, an empty
bpf__foreach_tev() is defined in bpf-loader.h to avoid build errors.

We now have a PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE (type: 1), but the config states 0x6bd,
which is how, after setting up the event via the kprobes interface, the
'perf_bpf_probe:fork' event is accessible via the perf_event_open
syscall. This is all transient, as soon as the 'perf record' session
ends, these probes will go away.
To see how it looks like, lets try doing a neverending session, one that
expects a control+C to end:
# perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a
So, with that in place, we can use 'perf probe' to see what is in place:
# perf probe -l
perf_bpf_probe:fork (on _do_fork@acme/git/linux/kernel/fork.c)
We also can use debugfs:
[root@felicio ~]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
p:perf_bpf_probe/fork _text+638512
Ok, now lets stop and see if we got some forks:
[root@felicio linux]# perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a

used to do the main parsing work. The resuling 'struct perf_probe_event'
is stored into program private data for further using.
By utilizing the new probing API, this patch creates probe points during
event parsing.
To ensure probe points be removed correctly, register an atexit hook so
even perf quit through exit() bpf__clear() is still called, so probing
points are cleared. Note that bpf_clear() should be registered before
bpf__probe() is called, so failure of bpf__probe() can still trigger
bpf__clear() to remove probe points which are already probed.
strerror style error reporting scaffold is created by this patch.
bpf__strerror_probe() is the first error reporting function in
bpf-loader.c.

perf tools: Enable passing bpf object file to --event
By introducing new rules in tools/perf/util/parse-events.[ly], this
patch enables 'perf record --event bpf_file.o' to select events by an
eBPF object file. It calls parse_events_load_bpf() to load that file,
which uses bpf__prepare_load() and finally calls bpf_object__open() for
the object files.
After applying this patch, commands like:
# perf record --event foo.o sleep
become possible.
However, at this point it is unable to link any useful things onto the
evsel list because the creating of probe points and BPF program
attaching have not been implemented. Before real events are possible to
be extracted, to avoid perf report error because of empty evsel list,
this patch link a dummy evsel. The dummy event related code will be
removed when probing and extracting code is ready.

perf tools: Make perf depend on libbpf
By adding libbpf into perf's Makefile, this patch enables perf to build
libbpf if libelf is found and neither NO_LIBELF nor NO_LIBBPF is set.
The newly introduced code is similar to how libapi and libtraceevent
are wired into Makefile.perf.
MANIFEST is also updated for 'make perf-*-src-pkg'.
Append make_no_libbpf to tools/perf/tests/make.
The 'bpf' feature check is appended into default FEATURE_TESTS and
FEATURE_DISPLAY, so perf will check the API version of bpf in
/path/to/kernel/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h. Which should not fail except
when we are trying to port this code to an old kernel.
Error messages are also updated to notify users about the lack of BPF
support in 'perf record' if libelf is missing or the BPF API check
failed.
tools/lib/bpf is added to TAG_FOLDERS to allow us to navigate libbpf
files when working on perf using tools/perf/tags.

perf symbols: Fix endless loop in dso__split_kallsyms_for_kcore
Currently we split symbols based on the map comparison, but symbols are stored
within dso objects and maps could point into same dso objects (kernel maps).
Hence we could end up changing rbtree we are currently iterating and mess it
up. It's easily reproduced on s390x by running:
$ perf record -a -- sleep 3
$ perf buildid-list -i perf.data --with-hits
The fix is to compare dso objects instead.

# perf record -e cycles/no-inherit/ ...
# perf record -e cycles/inherit/ ...
So user can control inherit bit for each event separately.
In following example, a.out fork()s in main then do some complex
CPU intensive computations in both of its children.
Basic result with and without inherit:

perf record: Add ability to sample call branches
This patch add a new branch type sampling filter to perf record.
It is named 'call' and maps to PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_CALL. It samples
direct call branches only, unlike 'any_call' which includes indirect
calls as well.
$ perf record -j call -e cycles .....
The man page is updated accordingly.

perf/x86: Fix time_shift in perf_event_mmap_page
Commit:
b20112edeadf ("perf/x86: Improve accuracy of perf/sched clock")
allowed the time_shift value in perf_event_mmap_page to be as much
as 32. Unfortunately the documented algorithms for using time_shift
have it shifting an integer, whereas to work correctly with the value
32, the type must be u64.
In the case of perf tools, Intel PT decodes correctly but the timestamps
that are output (for example by perf script) have lost 32-bits of
granularity so they look like they are not changing at all.
Fix by limiting the shift to 31 and adjusting the multiplier accordingly.
Also update the documentation of perf_event_mmap_page so that new code
based on it will be more future-proof.

perf bench: Remove the prefaulting complication from 'perf bench mem mem*'
So 'perf bench mem memcpy/memset' has elaborate code to measure
memcpy()/memset() performance both with freshly allocated buffers (which
includes initial page fault overhead) and with preallocated buffers.
But the thing is, the resulting bandwidth results are mostly
meaningless, because page faults dominate so much of the cost.
It might make sense to measure cache cold vs. cache hot performance, but
the code does not do this.
So remove this complication, and always prefault the ranges before using

This makes the file name a misnomer: rename it to the more generic
mem-functions.c name.

perf bench: Default to all routines in 'perf bench mem'
So few people know that the --routine option to 'perf bench memcpy/memset'
exists, and would not know that it's capable of testing the kernel's
memcpy/memset implementations.
Furthermore, 'perf bench mem all' will not run all routines:
vega:~> perf bench mem all
# Running mem/memcpy benchmark...
Routine default (Default memcpy() provided by glibc)
# Copying 1MB Bytes ...
894.454383 MB/Sec
3.844734 GB/Sec (with prefault)
# Running mem/memset benchmark...
Routine default (Default memset() provided by glibc)
# Copying 1MB Bytes ...
1.220703 GB/Sec
9.042245 GB/Sec (with prefault)
Because misleadingly the 'all' refers to 'all sub-benchmarks', not 'all
sub-benchmarks and routines'.
Fix all this by making the memcpy/memset routine to default to 'all',
which results in all the benchmarks being run:
triton:~> perf bench mem all

# Copying 1MB Bytes ...

perf test: Suppress libtraceevent warnings
Currently libtraceevent emits warning on unsupported event formats.
However it'd be better to see them only -v option is given. To do that,
it needs to override the warning() function which is used in the
libtracevent. Thus add set_warning_routine() same as set_die_routine()
and check the verbose flag in our warning routine.
Before:
# perf test 5
5: parse events tests :
Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_get_page] bad op token {
Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_sync_page] bad op token {
Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_unsync_page] bad op token {
Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page] bad op token {

Ok

perf test: Silence tracepoint event failures
Currently, when 'perf test' is run by a normal user, it'll fail to
access tracepoint events. The output becomes somewhat messy because it
tries to be nice with long error messages and hints.
IMHO this is not needed for 'perf test' by default and AFAIK 'perf test'
uses pr_debug() rather than pr_err() for such messages so that one can
use -v option to see further details on failed testcases if needed.

The reason is READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE code we took from kernel sources. They
intentionaly break aliasing rules. While this is ok for kernel because it's
built with -fno-strict-aliasing, it breaks perf which is build with
-Wstrict-aliasing=3.
