perf annotate: Fix broken arrow at row 0 connecting jmp instruction to its target

2017-11-11T13:32:53+00:00

commit 80f62589fa52f530cffc50e78c0b5a2ae572d61e upstream.

When the jump instruction is displayed at the row 0 in annotate view,
the arrow is broken. An example:

 16.86 │   ┌──je     82
  0.01 │      movsd  (%rsp),%xmm0
       │      movsd  0x8(%rsp),%xmm4
       │      movsd  0x8(%rsp),%xmm1
       │      movsd  (%rsp),%xmm3
       │      divsd  %xmm4,%xmm0
       │      divsd  %xmm3,%xmm1
       │      movsd  (%rsp),%xmm2
       │      addsd  %xmm1,%xmm0
       │      addsd  %xmm2,%xmm0
       │      movsd  %xmm0,(%rsp)
       │82:   sub    $0x1,%ebx
 83.03 │    ↑ jne    38
       │      add    $0x10,%rsp
       │      xor    %eax,%eax
       │      pop    %rbx
       │    ← retq

The patch increments the row number before checking with 0.

tools/lib/lockdep: Reduce MAX_LOCK_DEPTH to avoid overflowing lock_chain/: Depth

2017-10-12T14:27:44+00:00

commit 98dcea0cfd04e083ac74137ceb9a632604740e2d upstream.

liblockdep has been broken since commit 75dd602a5198 ("lockdep: Fix
lock_chain::base size"), as that adds a check that MAX_LOCK_DEPTH is
within the range of lock_chain::depth and in liblockdep it is much
too large.

That should have resulted in a compiler error, but didn't because:

- the check uses ARRAY_SIZE(), which isn't yet defined in liblockdep
  so is assumed to be an (undeclared) function
- putting a function call inside a BUILD_BUG_ON() expression quietly
  turns it into some nonsense involving a variable-length array

It did produce a compiler warning, but I didn't notice because
liblockdep already produces too many warnings if -Wall is enabled
(which I'll fix shortly).

Even before that commit, which reduced lock_chain::depth from 8 bits
to 6, MAX_LOCK_DEPTH was too large.

perf script python: Remove dups in documentation examples

2017-09-15T17:30:06+00:00

commit 14fc42fa1b3e7ea5160c84d0e686a3a0c1ffe619 upstream.

Few shell command examples in perf-script-python.txt has few nitpicks
include:

- tools/perf/scripts/python directory listing command is unnecessarily
  repeated.
- few examples contain additional information in command prompt
  unnecessarily and inconsistently.

This commit fixes them to enhance readability of the document.

selftests/powerpc: Fix TM resched DSCR test with some compilers

2017-09-15T17:29:46+00:00

commit fe06fe860250a4f01d0eaf70a2563b1997174a74 upstream.

The tm-resched-dscr test has started failing sometimes, depending on
what compiler it's built with, eg:

  test: tm_resched_dscr
  Check DSCR TM context switch: tm-resched-dscr: tm-resched-dscr.c:76: test_body: Assertion `rv' failed.
  !! child died by signal 6

When it fails we see that the compiler doesn't initialise rv to 1 before
entering the inline asm block. Although that's counter intuitive, it
is allowed because we tell the compiler that the inline asm will write
to rv (using "=r"), meaning the original value is irrelevant.

Marking it as a read/write parameter would presumably work, but it seems
simpler to fix it by setting the initial value of rv in the inline asm.

perf inject: Don't proceed if perf_session__process_event() fails

2017-08-26T01:14:30+00:00

commit bb8d521f77f3e68a713456b7fb1e99f52ff3342c upstream.

All paths following perf_session__process_event() in __cmd_inject() are
useless if __cmd_inject() is to fail, some depend on a correct
session->evlist.

First commit to add code that depends on session->evlist without checking
error was commmit e558a5bd8b ("perf inject: Work with files"). It has
grown since then.

Change __cmd_inject() to fail immediately after
perf_session__process_event() fails.
