[ Upstream commit ab4200c17ba6fe71d2da64317aae8a8aa684624c ]

Fix die_entrypc() to return error correctly if the DIE has no
DW_AT_ranges attribute. Since dwarf_ranges() will treat the case as an
empty ranges and return 0, we have to check it by ourselves.

<title>perf stat: Use proper cpu for shadow stats</title>

[ Upstream commit c0ee1d5ae8c8650031badcfca6483a28c0f94f38 ]

Currently perf stat shows some metrics (like IPC) for defined events.
But when no aggregation mode is used (-A option), it shows incorrect
values since it used a value from a different cpu.

Before:

  $ perf stat -aA -e cycles,instructions sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

  CPU0      116,057,380      cycles
  CPU1       86,084,722      cycles
  CPU2       99,423,125      cycles
  CPU3       98,272,994      cycles
  CPU0       53,369,217      instructions      #    0.46  insn per cycle
  CPU1       33,378,058      instructions      #    0.29  insn per cycle
  CPU2       58,150,086      instructions      #    0.50  insn per cycle
  CPU3       40,029,703      instructions      #    0.34  insn per cycle

       1.001816971 seconds time elapsed

So the IPC for CPU1 should be 0.38 (= 33,378,058 / 86,084,722)
but it was 0.29 (= 33,378,058 / 116,057,380) and so on.

After:

  $ perf stat -aA -e cycles,instructions sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

  CPU0      109,621,384      cycles
  CPU1      159,026,454      cycles
  CPU2       99,460,366      cycles
  CPU3      124,144,142      cycles
  CPU0       44,396,706      instructions      #    0.41  insn per cycle
  CPU1      120,195,425      instructions      #    0.76  insn per cycle
  CPU2       44,763,978      instructions      #    0.45  insn per cycle
  CPU3       69,049,079      instructions      #    0.56  insn per cycle

       1.001910444 seconds time elapsed

<title>perf record: Synthesize cgroup events only if needed</title>

[ Upstream commit aa50d953c169e876413bf237319e728dd41d9fdd ]

It didn't check the tool-&gt;cgroup_events bit which is set when the
--all-cgroups option is given.  Without it, samples will not have cgroup
info so no reason to synthesize.

We can check the PERF_RECORD_CGROUP records after running perf record
*WITHOUT* the --all-cgroups option:

Before:

  $ perf report -D | grep CGROUP
  0 0 0x8430 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_CGROUP cgroup: 1 /
          CGROUP events:          1
          CGROUP events:          0
          CGROUP events:          0

After:

  $ perf report -D | grep CGROUP
          CGROUP events:          0
          CGROUP events:          0
          CGROUP events:          0

Committer testing:

Before:

  # perf record -a sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.208 MB perf.data (10003 samples) ]
  # perf report -D | grep "CGROUP events"
            CGROUP events:        146
            CGROUP events:          0
            CGROUP events:          0
  #

After:

  # perf record -a sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.208 MB perf.data (10448 samples) ]
  # perf report -D | grep "CGROUP events"
            CGROUP events:          0
            CGROUP events:          0
            CGROUP events:          0
  #

With all-cgroups:

  # perf record --all-cgroups -a sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.374 MB perf.data (11526 samples) ]
  # perf report -D | grep "CGROUP events"
            CGROUP events:        146
            CGROUP events:          0
            CGROUP events:          0

<title>perf scripting python: Avoid declaring function pointers with a visibility attribute</title>

commit d0e7b0c71fbb653de90a7163ef46912a96f0bdaf upstream.

To avoid this:

  util/scripting-engines/trace-event-python.c: In function 'python_start_script':
  util/scripting-engines/trace-event-python.c:1595:2: error: 'visibility' attribute ignored [-Werror=attributes]
   1595 |  PyMODINIT_FUNC (*initfunc)(void);
        |  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That started breaking when building with PYTHON=python3 and these gcc
versions (I haven't checked with the clang ones, maybe it breaks there
as well):

  # export PERF_TARBALL=http://192.168.86.5/perf/perf-5.9.0.tar.xz
  # dm  fedora:33 fedora:rawhide
     1   107.80 fedora:33         : Ok   gcc (GCC) 10.2.1 20201005 (Red Hat 10.2.1-5), clang version 11.0.0 (Fedora 11.0.0-1.fc33)
     2    92.47 fedora:rawhide    : Ok   gcc (GCC) 10.2.1 20201016 (Red Hat 10.2.1-6), clang version 11.0.0 (Fedora 11.0.0-1.fc34)
  #

Avoid that by ditching that 'initfunc' function pointer with its:

    #define Py_EXPORTED_SYMBOL _attribute_ ((visibility ("default")))
    #define PyMODINIT_FUNC Py_EXPORTED_SYMBOL PyObject*

And just call PyImport_AppendInittab() at the end of the ifdef python3
block with the functions that were being attributed to that initfunc.

commit 6fcd5ddc3b1467b3586972ef785d0d926ae4cdf4 upstream.

Hagen reported broken strings in python3 tracepoint scripts:

  make PYTHON=python3
  perf record -e sched:sched_switch -a -- sleep 5
  perf script --gen-script py
  perf script -s ./perf-script.py

  [..]
  sched__sched_switch      7 563231.759525792        0 swapper   prev_comm=bytearray(b'swapper/7\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00'), prev_pid=0, prev_prio=120, prev_state=, next_comm=bytearray(b'mutex-thread-co\x00'),

The problem is in the is_printable_array function that does not take the
zero byte into account and claim such string as not printable, so the
code will create byte array instead of string.

Committer testing:

<title>perf metricgroup: Fix uncore metric expressions</title>

[ Upstream commit dcc81be0fc4e66943041e6e19a5faf8f8704a27e ]

A metric like DRAM_BW_Use has on SkylakeX events uncore_imc/cas_count_read/
and uncore_imc/case_count_write/.

These events open 6 events per socket with pmu names of
uncore_imc_[0-5].

The current metric setup code in find_evsel_group assumes one ID will
map to 1 event to be recorded in metric_events.

For events with multiple matches, the first event is recorded in
metric_events (avoiding matching &gt;1 event with the same name) and the
evlist_used updated so that duplicate events aren't removed when the
evlist has unused events removed.

Before this change:

  $ /tmp/perf/perf stat -M DRAM_BW_Use -a -- sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

               41.14 MiB  uncore_imc/cas_count_read/
       1,002,614,251 ns   duration_time

         1.002614251 seconds time elapsed

After this change:

  $ /tmp/perf/perf stat -M DRAM_BW_Use -a -- sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

              157.47 MiB  uncore_imc/cas_count_read/ #     0.00 DRAM_BW_Use
              126.97 MiB  uncore_imc/cas_count_write/
       1,003,019,728 ns   duration_time

Erroneous duplication introduced in:
commit 2440689d62e9 ("perf metricgroup: Remove duped metric group events").

Fixes: ded80bda8bc9 ("perf expr: Migrate expr ids table to a hashmap").

<title>perf intel-pt: Fix "context_switch event has no tid" error</title>

<id>7eb5691f7a5d3d434e4ee8eb47c2340bbaf560ca</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 7d537a8d2e76bc4fc71e34545ceaa463ac2cd928 ]

A context_switch event can have no tid because pids can be detached from
a task while the task is still running (in do_exit()). Note this won't
happen with per-task contexts because then tracing stops at
perf_event_exit_task()

If a task with no tid gets preempted, or a dying task gets preempted and
its parent releases it, when it subsequently gets switched back in,
Intel PT will not be able to determine what task is running and prints
an error "context_switch event has no tid". However, it is not really an
error because the task is in kernel space and the decoder can continue
to decode successfully. Fix by changing the error to be only a logged
message, and make allowance for tid == -1.

Example:

  Using 5.9-rc4 with Preemptible Kernel (Low-Latency Desktop) e.g.
  $ uname -r
  5.9.0-rc4
  $ grep PREEMPT .config
  # CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE is not set
  # CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY is not set
  CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
  CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT=y
  CONFIG_PREEMPTION=y
  CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y
  CONFIG_PREEMPT_NOTIFIERS=y

[ Upstream commit 7d537a8d2e76bc4fc71e34545ceaa463ac2cd928 ]

A context_switch event can have no tid because pids can be detached from
a task while the task is still running (in do_exit()). Note this won't
happen with per-task contexts because then tracing stops at
perf_event_exit_task()

If a task with no tid gets preempted, or a dying task gets preempted and
its parent releases it, when it subsequently gets switched back in,
Intel PT will not be able to determine what task is running and prints
an error "context_switch event has no tid". However, it is not really an
error because the task is in kernel space and the decoder can continue
to decode successfully. Fix by changing the error to be only a logged
message, and make allowance for tid == -1.

Example:

  Using 5.9-rc4 with Preemptible Kernel (Low-Latency Desktop) e.g.
  $ uname -r
  5.9.0-rc4
  $ grep PREEMPT .config
  # CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE is not set
  # CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY is not set
  CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
  CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT=y
  CONFIG_PREEMPTION=y
  CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y
  CONFIG_PREEMPT_NOTIFIERS=y
  CONFIG_DRM_I915_PREEMPT_TIMEOUT=640
  CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y
  # CONFIG_PREEMPT_TRACER is not set
  # CONFIG_PREEMPTIRQ_DELAY_TEST is not set

          pid_t child;
          int status = 0;

          child = fork();
          if (child == 0)
                  return 123;
          wait(&amp;status);

'perf stat' displays miss ratio of L1-dcache, L1-icache, dTLB cache,
iTLB cache and LL-cache. Take L1-dcache for example, miss ratio is
caculated as "L1-dcache-load-misses/L1-dcache-loads". So "of all
L1-dcache hits" is unsuitable to describe it, and "of all L1-dcache
accesses" seems better.

The comments of L1-icache, dTLB cache, iTLB cache and LL-cache are
fixed in the same way.
