tools: Factor HOSTCC, HOSTLD, HOSTAR definitions

2021-01-30T12:54:10+00:00

commit c8a950d0d3b926a02c7b2e713850d38217cec3d1 upstream.

Several Makefiles in tools/ need to define the host toolchain variables.
Move their definition to tools/scripts/Makefile.include

perf intel-pt: Fix 'CPU too large' error

2021-01-19T17:26:16+00:00

commit 5501e9229a80d95a1ea68609f44c447a75d23ed5 upstream.

In some cases, the number of cpus (nr_cpus_online) is confused with the
maximum cpu number (nr_cpus_avail), which results in the error in the
example below:

Example on system with 8 cpus:

 Before:
   # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
   # ./perf record --kcore -e intel_pt// taskset --cpu-list 7 uname
   Linux
   [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
   [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.147 MB perf.data ]
   # ./perf script --itrace=e
   Requested CPU 7 too large. Consider raising MAX_NR_CPUS
   0x25908 [0x8]: failed to process type: 68 [Invalid argument]

 After:
   # ./perf script --itrace=e
   #

perf probe: Fix memory leak when synthesizing SDT probes

2020-12-30T10:51:29+00:00

[ Upstream commit 5149303fdfe5c67ddb51c911e23262f781cd75eb ]

The argv_split() function must be paired with argv_free(), else we must
keep a reference to the argv array received or do the freeing ourselves,
in synthesize_sdt_probe_command() we were simply leaking that argv[]
array.

perf record: Fix memory leak when using '--user-regs=?' to list registers

When using 'perf record's option '-I' or '--user-regs=' along with
argument '?' to list available register names, memory of variable 'os'
allocated by strdup() needs to be released before __parse_regs()
returns, otherwise memory leak will occur.

perf stat: Use proper cpu for shadow stats

2020-12-02T07:49:54+00:00

[ 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

perf lock: Don't free "lock_seq_stat" if read_count isn't zero

2020-11-24T12:29:05+00:00

[ Upstream commit b0e5a05cc9e37763c7f19366d94b1a6160c755bc ]

When execute command "perf lock report", it hits failure and outputs log
as follows:

  perf: builtin-lock.c:623: report_lock_release_event: Assertion `!(seq->read_count < 0)' failed.
  Aborted

This is an imbalance issue.  The locking sequence structure
"lock_seq_stat" contains the reader counter and it is used to check if
the locking sequence is balance or not between acquiring and releasing.

If the tool wrongly frees "lock_seq_stat" when "read_count" isn't zero,
the "read_count" will be reset to zero when allocate a new structure at
the next time; thus it causes the wrong counting for reader and finally
results in imbalance issue.

To fix this issue, if detects "read_count" is not zero (means still have
read user in the locking sequence), goto the "end" tag to skip freeing
structure "lock_seq_stat".

perf scripting python: Avoid declaring function pointers with a visibility attribute

2020-11-18T18:20:33+00:00

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.
