Namhyung KimandGreg Kroah-Hartman 7438b1d70b perf tools: Fix split kallsyms DSO counting
[ Upstream commit ad0b9c4865 ]

It's counted twice as it's increased after calling maps__insert().  I
guess we want to increase it only after it's added properly.

Leo YanandGreg Kroah-Hartman f153fc44c7 perf arm_spe: Fix memset subclass in operation
[ Upstream commit 33e1fffea4 ]

The operation subclass is extracted from bits [7..1] of the payload.
Since bit [0] is not parsed, there is no chance to match the memset type
(0x25). As a result, the memset payload is never parsed successfully.

Instead of extracting a unified bit field, change to extract the
specific bits for each operation subclass.

Leo YanandGreg Kroah-Hartman 64378caea9 perf arm-spe: Extend branch operations
[ Upstream commit 64d86c03e1 ]

In Arm ARM (ARM DDI 0487, L.a), the section "D18.2.7 Operation Type
packet", the branch subclass is extended for Call Return (CR), Guarded
control stack data access (GCS).

This commit adds support CR and GCS operations.  The IND (indirect)
operation is defined only in bit [1], its macro is updated accordingly.

Move the COND (Conditional) macro into the same group with other
operations for better maintenance.

Shuai XueandGreg Kroah-Hartman 42c1d38de8 perf record: skip synthesize event when open evsel failed
[ Upstream commit 163e5f2b96 ]

When using perf record with the `--overwrite` option, a segmentation fault
occurs if an event fails to open. For example:

  perf record -e cycles-ct -F 1000 -a --overwrite
  Error:
  cycles-ct:H: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts. Try 'perf stat'
  perf: Segmentation fault

      #14 0x43a3ee in _start ??:0

The --overwrite option implies --tail-synthesize, which collects non-sample
events reflecting the system status when recording finishes. However, when
evsel opening fails (e.g., unsupported event 'cycles-ct'), session->evlist
is not initialized and remains NULL. The code unconditionally calls
record__synthesize() in the error path, which iterates through the NULL
evlist pointer and causes a segfault.

To fix it, move the record__synthesize() call inside the error check block, so
it's only called when there was no error during recording, ensuring that evlist
is properly initialized.

Namhyung KimandGreg Kroah-Hartman 4dc555120a perf lock contention: Load kernel map before lookup
[ Upstream commit 553d18c98a ]

On some machines, it caused troubles when it tried to find kernel
symbols.  I think it's because kernel modules and kallsyms are messed
up during load and split.

Basically we want to make sure the kernel map is loaded and the code has
it in the lock_contention_read().  But recently we added more lookups in
the lock_contention_prepare() which is called before _read().

Also the kernel map (kallsyms) may not be the first one in the group
like on ARM.  Let's use machine__kernel_map() rather than just loading
the first map.

jingxian.liandGreg Kroah-Hartman a299478ac1 Revert "perf dso: Add missed dso__put to dso__load_kcore"
This reverts commit e5de9ea779.

The patch introduced `map__zput(new_node->map)` in the kcore load
path, causing a segmentation fault when running `perf c2c report`.

The issue arises because `maps__merge_in` directly modifies and
inserts the caller's `new_map`, causing it to be freed prematurely
while still referenced by kmaps.

Later branchs (6.12, 6.15, 6.16) are not affected because they use
a different merge approach with a lazily sorted array, which avoids
modifying the original `new_map`.

Leo YanandGreg Kroah-Hartman 5e51bb7ffc perf python: split Clang options when invoking Popen
[ Upstream commit c6a43bc3e8 ]

When passing a list to subprocess.Popen, each element maps to one argv
token. Current code bundles multiple Clang flags into a single element,
something like:

  cmd = ['clang',
         '--target=x86_64-linux-gnu -fintegrated-as -Wno-cast-function-type-mismatch',
	 'test-hello.c']

So Clang only sees one long, invalid option instead of separate flags,
as a result, the script cannot capture any log via PIPE.

Fix this by using shlex.split() to separate the string so each option
becomes its own argv element. The fixed list will be:

  cmd = ['clang',
         '--target=x86_64-linux-gnu',
	 '-fintegrated-as',
	 '-Wno-cast-function-type-mismatch',
	 'test-hello.c']

Namhyung KimandGreg Kroah-Hartman 4a1f44e546 perf tools: Add fallback for exclude_guest
[ Upstream commit bb6e7cb11d ]

Commit 7b100989b4 ("perf evlist: Remove __evlist__add_default")
changed to parse "cycles:P" event instead of creating a new cycles
event for perf record.  But it also changed the way how modifiers are
handled so it doesn't set the exclude_guest bit by default.

It seems Apple M1 PMU requires exclude_guest set and returns EOPNOTSUPP
if not.  Let's add a fallback so that it can work with default events.

Also update perf stat hybrid tests to handle possible u or H modifiers.

Leo YanandGreg Kroah-Hartman 1501f779e7 perf session: Fix handling when buffer exceeds 2 GiB
[ Upstream commit c17dda8013 ]

If a user specifies an AUX buffer larger than 2 GiB, the returned size
may exceed 0x80000000. Since the err variable is defined as a signed
32-bit integer, such a value overflows and becomes negative.

As a result, the perf record command reports an error:

  0x146e8 [0x30]: failed to process type: 71 [Unknown error 183711232]

Change the type of the err variable to a signed 64-bit integer to
accommodate large buffer sizes correctly.

Yunseong KimandGreg Kroah-Hartman 41eac6ed9e perf util: Fix compression checks returning -1 as bool
[ Upstream commit 43fa1141e2 ]

The lzma_is_compressed and gzip_is_compressed functions are declared
to return a "bool" type, but in case of an error (e.g., file open
failure), they incorrectly returned -1.

A bool type is a boolean value that is either true or false.
Returning -1 for a bool return type can lead to unexpected behavior
and may violate strict type-checking in some compilers.

Fix the return value to be false in error cases, ensuring the function
adheres to its declared return type improves for preventing potential
bugs related to type mismatch.

On recent Linux distros like Ubuntu Noble and Debian Bookworm, the
'pkg-config-aarch64-linux-gnu' package is missing. As a result, the
aarch64-linux-gnu-pkg-config command is not available, which causes
build failures.

When a build passes the environment variables PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR or
PKG_CONFIG_PATH, like a user uses make command or a build system
(like Yocto, Buildroot, etc) prepares the variables and passes to the
Perf's Makefile, the commit keeps these variables for package
configuration. Otherwise, this commit sets the PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR
variable to use the Multiarch libs for the cross compilation.

The syscalls that were consistently observed were set_robust_list and

This change ensures that the return value is always printed.

Before:

Committer notes:

As discussed in the thread in the Link: tag below, these two don't
return a pid, but for syscalls returning one, we need to print the
result and if we manage to find the children in 'perf trace' data
structures, then print its name as well.

I used cross compiler to build Perf tool on my host machine and tested on
Debian / Juno board.  Generally, I think this issue is not very specific
to GCC versions.  As both internal CI and my local env can reproduce the
issue.

My Host Build compiler:

  # aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc --version
  aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc (Ubuntu 13.3.0-6ubuntu2~24.04) 13.3.0

Juno Board:

  # lsb_release -a
  No LSB modules are available.
  Distributor ID: Debian
  Description:    Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)
  Release:        12
  Codename:       bookworm

Fix this by explicitly returning 0, 1, or -1 based on whether the result
is zero, positive, or negative.

Adrian HunterandGreg Kroah-Hartman 53385a400a perf intel-pt: Fix PEBS-via-PT data_src
[ Upstream commit e00eac6b5b ]

The Fixes commit did not add support for decoding PEBS-via-PT data_src.
Fix by adding support.

PEBS-via-PT is a feature of some E-core processors, starting with
processors based on Tremont microarchitecture. Because the kernel only
supports Intel PT features that are on all processors, there is no support
for PEBS-via-PT on hybrids.

Currently that leaves processors based on Tremont, Gracemont and Crestmont,
however there are no events on Tremont that produce data_src information,
and for Gracemont and Crestmont there are only:

	mem-loads	event=0xd0,umask=0x5,ldlat=3
	mem-stores	event=0xd0,umask=0x6

Affected processors include Alder Lake N (Gracemont), Sierra Forest
(Crestmont) and Grand Ridge (Crestmont).

Example:

 # perf record -d -e intel_pt/branch=0/ -e mem-loads/aux-output/pp uname

 Before:

  # perf.before script --itrace=o -Fdata_src
            0 |OP No|LVL N/A|SNP N/A|TLB N/A|LCK No|BLK  N/A
            0 |OP No|LVL N/A|SNP N/A|TLB N/A|LCK No|BLK  N/A

 After:

  # perf script --itrace=o -Fdata_src
  10268100142 |OP LOAD|LVL L1 hit|SNP None|TLB L1 or L2 hit|LCK No|BLK  N/A
  10450100442 |OP LOAD|LVL L2 hit|SNP None|TLB L2 miss|LCK No|BLK  N/A

Arnaldo Carvalho de MeloandGreg Kroah-Hartman e431cc956d perf ui browser hists: Set actions->thread before calling do_zoom_thread()
[ Upstream commit 1741189d84 ]

In 7cecb7fe83 ("perf hists: Move sort__has_comm into struct
perf_hpp_list") it assumes that act->thread is set prior to calling
do_zoom_thread().

This doesn't happen when we use ESC or the Left arrow key to Zoom out of
a specific thread, making this operation not to work and we get stuck
into the thread zoom.

In 6422184b08 ("perf hists browser: Simplify zooming code using
pstack_peek()") it says no need to set actions->thread, and at that
point that was true, but in 7cecb7fe83 a actions->thread == NULL
check was added before the zoom out of thread could kick in.

We can zoom out using the alternative 't' thread zoom toggle hotkey to
finally set actions->thread before calling do_zoom_thread() and zoom
out, but lets also fix the ESC/Zoom out of thread case.

Arnaldo Carvalho de MeloandGreg Kroah-Hartman 34e124dc21 perf build: Warn when libdebuginfod devel files are not available
[ Upstream commit 4fce4b91fd ]

While working on 'perf version --build-options' I noticed that:

  $ perf version --build-options
  perf version 6.15.rc1.g312a07a00d31
                   aio: [ on  ]  # HAVE_AIO_SUPPORT
                   bpf: [ on  ]  # HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT
         bpf_skeletons: [ on  ]  # HAVE_BPF_SKEL
            debuginfod: [ OFF ]  # HAVE_DEBUGINFOD_SUPPORT
  <SNIP>

And looking at tools/perf/Makefile.config I also noticed that it is not
opt-in, meaning we will attempt to build with it in all normal cases.

So add the usual warning at build time to let the user know that
something recommended is missing, now we see:

  Makefile.config:563: No elfutils/debuginfod.h found, no debuginfo server support, please install elfutils-debuginfod-client-devel or equivalent

And after following the recommendation:

  $ perf check feature debuginfod
            debuginfod: [ on  ]  # HAVE_DEBUGINFOD_SUPPORT
  $ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep debuginfo
	libdebuginfod.so.1 => /lib64/libdebuginfod.so.1 (0x00007fee5cf5f000)
  $

With this feature on several perf tools will fetch what is needed and
not require all the contents of the debuginfo packages, for instance:

  # rpm -qa | grep kernel-debuginfo
  # pahole --running_kernel_vmlinux
  pahole: couldn't find a vmlinux that matches the running kernel

Arnaldo Carvalho de MeloandGreg Kroah-Hartman 769a0f187b perf python: Check if there is space to copy all the event
[ Upstream commit 89aaeaf842 ]

The pyrf_event__new() method copies the event obtained from the perf
ring buffer to a structure that will then be turned into a python object
for further consumption, so it copies perf_event.header.size bytes to
its 'event' member:

  $ pahole -C pyrf_event /tmp/build/perf-tools-next/python/perf.cpython-312-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
  struct pyrf_event {
  	PyObject                   ob_base;              /*     0    16 */
  	struct evsel *             evsel;                /*    16     8 */
  	struct perf_sample         sample;               /*    24   312 */

  	/* XXX last struct has 7 bytes of padding, 2 holes */

  	/* --- cacheline 5 boundary (320 bytes) was 16 bytes ago --- */
  	union perf_event           event;                /*   336  4168 */

  	/* size: 4504, cachelines: 71, members: 4 */
  	/* member types with holes: 1, total: 2 */
  	/* paddings: 1, sum paddings: 7 */
  	/* last cacheline: 24 bytes */
  };

  $

It was doing so without checking if the event just obtained has more
than that space, fix it.

This isn't a proper, final solution, as we need to support larger
events, but for the time being we at least bounds check and document it.

Arnaldo Carvalho de MeloandGreg Kroah-Hartman 88f5dd0002 perf python: Don't keep a raw_data pointer to consumed ring buffer space
[ Upstream commit f3fed3ae34 ]

When processing tracepoints the perf python binding was parsing the
event before calling perf_mmap__consume(&md->core) in
pyrf_evlist__read_on_cpu().

But part of this event parsing was to set the perf_sample->raw_data
pointer to the payload of the event, which then could be overwritten by
other event before tracepoint fields were asked for via event.prev_comm
in a python program, for instance.

This also happened with other fields, but strings were were problems
were surfacing, as there is UTF-8 validation for the potentially garbled
data.

This ended up showing up as (with some added debugging messages):

  ( field 'prev_comm' ret=0x7f7c31f65110, raw_size=68 )  ( field 'prev_pid' ret=0x7f7c23b1bed0, raw_size=68 )  ( field 'prev_prio' ret=0x7f7c239c0030, raw_size=68 )  ( field 'prev_state' ret=0x7f7c239c0250, raw_size=68 ) time 14771421785867 prev_comm= prev_pid=1919907691 prev_prio=796026219 prev_state=0x303a32313175 ==>
  ( XXX '��' len=16, raw_size=68)  ( field 'next_comm' ret=(nil), raw_size=68 ) Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/home/acme/git/perf-tools-next/tools/perf/python/tracepoint.py", line 51, in <module>
     main()
   File "/home/acme/git/perf-tools-next/tools/perf/python/tracepoint.py", line 46, in main
     event.next_comm,
     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  AttributeError: 'perf.sample_event' object has no attribute 'next_comm'

When event.next_comm was asked for, the PyUnicode_FromString() python
API would fail and that tracepoint field wouldn't be available, stopping
the tools/perf/python/tracepoint.py test tool.

But, since we already do a copy of the whole event in pyrf_event__new,
just use it and while at it remove what was done in in e8968e6541
("perf python: Fix pyrf_evlist__read_on_cpu event consuming") because we
don't really need to wait for parsing the sample before declaring the
event as consumed.

This copy is questionable as is now, as it limits the maximum event +
sample_type and tracepoint payload to sizeof(union perf_event), this all
has been "working" because 'struct perf_event_mmap2', the largest entry
in 'union perf_event' is:

  $ pahole -C perf_event ~/bin/perf | grep mmap2
	struct perf_record_mmap2   mmap2;              /*     0  4168 */
  $

Over various refactorings evlist__create_syswide_maps has been made to
only ever return with -ENOMEM. Fix this so that when
perf_evlist__set_maps is successfully called, 0 is returned.

Thomas RichterandGreg Kroah-Hartman fe2ada4ed4 perf bench: Fix perf bench syscall loop count
[ Upstream commit 957d194163 ]

Command 'perf bench syscall fork -l 100000' offers option -l to run for
a specified number of iterations. However this option is not always
observed. The number is silently limited to 10000 iterations as can be
seen:

Output before:
 # perf bench syscall fork -l 100000
 # Running 'syscall/fork' benchmark:
 # Executed 10,000 fork() calls
     Total time: 23.388 [sec]

    2338.809800 usecs/op
            427 ops/sec
 #

When explicitly specified with option -l or --loops, also observe
higher number of iterations:

Output after:
 # perf bench syscall fork -l 100000
 # Running 'syscall/fork' benchmark:
 # Executed 100,000 fork() calls
     Total time: 716.982 [sec]

    7169.829510 usecs/op

Leo YanandGreg Kroah-Hartman 31ebc5701a perf arm-spe: Fix load-store operation checking
[ Upstream commit e1d47850bb ]

The ARM_SPE_OP_LD and ARM_SPE_OP_ST operations are secondary operation
type, they are overlapping with other second level's operation types
belonging to SVE and branch operations.  As a result, a non load-store
operation can be parsed for data source and memory sample.

To fix the issue, this commit introduces a is_ldst_op() macro for
checking LDST operation, and apply the checking when synthesize data
source and memory samples.

James ClarkandGreg Kroah-Hartman d2b1ee18c1 perf pmu: Don't double count common sysfs and json events
[ Upstream commit c9d699e10f ]

After pmu_add_cpu_aliases() is called, perf_pmu__num_events() returns an
incorrect value that double counts common events and doesn't match the
actual count of events in the alias list. This is because after
'cpu_aliases_added == true', the number of events returned is
'sysfs_aliases + cpu_json_aliases'. But when adding 'case
EVENT_SRC_SYSFS' events, 'sysfs_aliases' and 'cpu_json_aliases' are both
incremented together, failing to account that these ones overlap and
only add a single item to the list. Fix it by adding another counter for
overlapping events which doesn't influence 'cpu_json_aliases'.

There doesn't seem to be a current issue because it's used in perf list
before pmu_add_cpu_aliases() so the correct value is returned. Other
uses in tests may also miss it for other reasons like only looking at
uncore events. However it's marked as a fixes commit in case any new fix
with new uses of perf_pmu__num_events() is backported.

Legacy events typically don't have a PMU when added leading to
mismatched legacy/non-legacy cases in find_stat. Use evsel__find_pmu

Kuan-Wei ChiuandGreg Kroah-Hartman 8da6b450a1 perf bench: Fix undefined behavior in cmpworker()
commit 62892e77b8 upstream.

The comparison function cmpworker() violates the C standard's
requirements for qsort() comparison functions, which mandate symmetry
and transitivity:

Symmetry: If x < y, then y > x.
Transitivity: If x < y and y < z, then x < z.

In its current implementation, cmpworker() incorrectly returns 0 when
w1->tid < w2->tid, which breaks both symmetry and transitivity. This
violation causes undefined behavior, potentially leading to issues such
as memory corruption in glibc [1].

Fix the issue by returning -1 when w1->tid < w2->tid, ensuring
compliance with the C standard and preventing undefined behavior.

Howard ChuandGreg Kroah-Hartman d2cd915aea perf trace: Fix runtime error of index out of bounds

libtraceevent parses and returns an array of argument fields, sometimes
larger than RAW_SYSCALL_ARGS_NUM (6) because it includes "__syscall_nr",
idx will traverse to index 6 (7th element) whereas sc->fmt->arg holds 6

Chun-Tse ShaoandGreg Kroah-Hartman 55f75ce472 perf lock: Fix parse_lock_type which only retrieve one lock flag
[ Upstream commit 1be9264158 ]

`parse_lock_type` can only add the first lock flag in `lock_type_table`
given input `str`. For example, for `Y rwlock`, it only adds `rwlock:R`
into this perf session. Another example is for `-Y mutex`, it only adds
the mutex without `LCB_F_SPIN` flag. The patch fixes this issue, makes
sure both `rwlock:R` and `rwlock:W` will be added with `-Y rwlock`, and
so on.
