<title>perf record: Fix s390 missing module symbol and warning for non-root users</title>
<updated>2019-05-28T12:52:23+00:00</updated>

<name>Thomas Richter</name>

<id>6738028dd57df064b969d8392c943ef3b3ae705d</id>
<content type='text'>
Command 'perf record' and 'perf report' on a system without kernel
debuginfo packages uses /proc/kallsyms and /proc/modules to find
addresses for kernel and module symbols. On x86 this works for root and
non-root users.

On s390, when invoked as non-root user, many of the following warnings
are shown and module symbols are missing:

    proc/{kallsyms,modules} inconsistency while looking for
        "[sha1_s390]" module!

Command 'perf record' creates a list of module start addresses by
parsing the output of /proc/modules and creates a PERF_RECORD_MMAP
record for the kernel and each module. The following function call
sequence is executed:

  machine__create_kernel_maps
    machine__create_module
      modules__parse
        machine__create_module --&gt; for each line in /proc/modules
          arch__fix_module_text_start

Function arch__fix_module_text_start() is s390 specific. It opens
file /sys/module/&lt;name&gt;/sections/.text to extract the module's .text
section start address. On s390 the module loader prepends a header
before the first section, whereas on x86 the module's text section
address is identical the the module's load address.

However module section files are root readable only. For non-root the
read operation fails and machine__create_module() returns an error.
Command perf record does not generate any PERF_RECORD_MMAP record
for loaded modules. Later command perf report complains about missing
module maps.

To fix this function arch__fix_module_text_start() always returns
success. For root users there is no change, for non-root users
the module's load address is used as module's text start address
(the prepended header then counts as part of the text section).

This enable non-root users to use module symbols and avoid the
warning when perf report is executed.

Output before:

  [tmricht@m83lp54 perf]$ ./perf report -D | fgrep MMAP
  0 0x168 [0x50]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP ... x [kernel.kallsyms]_text

Output after:

  [tmricht@m83lp54 perf]$ ./perf report -D | fgrep MMAP
  0 0x168 [0x50]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP ... x [kernel.kallsyms]_text

Copy the headers changed by these csets:

  d8076bdb56af ("uapi: Wire up the mount API syscalls on non-x86 arches [ver #2]")
  9c8ad7a2ff0b ("uapi, x86: Fix the syscall numbering of the mount API syscalls [ver #2]")
  cf3cba4a429b ("vfs: syscall: Add fspick() to select a superblock for reconfiguration")
  93766fbd2696 ("vfs: syscall: Add fsmount() to create a mount for a superblock")
  ecdab150fddb ("vfs: syscall: Add fsconfig() for configuring and managing a context")
  24dcb3d90a1f ("vfs: syscall: Add fsopen() to prepare for superblock creation")
  2db154b3ea8e ("vfs: syscall: Add move_mount(2) to move mounts around")
  a07b20004793 ("vfs: syscall: Add open_tree(2) to reference or clone a mount")

We need to create tables for all the flags argument in the new syscalls,
in followup patches.

This silences these perf build warnings:

Copy the headers changed by these csets:

  d8076bdb56af ("uapi: Wire up the mount API syscalls on non-x86 arches [ver #2]")
  9c8ad7a2ff0b ("uapi, x86: Fix the syscall numbering of the mount API syscalls [ver #2]")
  cf3cba4a429b ("vfs: syscall: Add fspick() to select a superblock for reconfiguration")
  93766fbd2696 ("vfs: syscall: Add fsmount() to create a mount for a superblock")
  ecdab150fddb ("vfs: syscall: Add fsconfig() for configuring and managing a context")
  24dcb3d90a1f ("vfs: syscall: Add fsopen() to prepare for superblock creation")
  2db154b3ea8e ("vfs: syscall: Add move_mount(2) to move mounts around")
  a07b20004793 ("vfs: syscall: Add open_tree(2) to reference or clone a mount")

We need to create tables for all the flags argument in the new syscalls,
in followup patches.

This silences these perf build warnings:

<title>perf arm64: Fix mksyscalltbl when system kernel headers are ahead of the kernel</title>

<id>f95d050cdc5d34f9a4417e06c392ccbf146037bb</id>
<content type='text'>
When a host system has kernel headers that are newer than a compiling
kernel, mksyscalltbl fails with errors such as:

  &lt;stdin&gt;: In function 'main':
  &lt;stdin&gt;:271:44: error: '__NR_kexec_file_load' undeclared (first use in this function)
  &lt;stdin&gt;:271:44: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
  &lt;stdin&gt;:272:46: error: '__NR_pidfd_send_signal' undeclared (first use in this function)
  &lt;stdin&gt;:273:43: error: '__NR_io_uring_setup' undeclared (first use in this function)
  &lt;stdin&gt;:274:43: error: '__NR_io_uring_enter' undeclared (first use in this function)
  &lt;stdin&gt;:275:46: error: '__NR_io_uring_register' undeclared (first use in this function)
  tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls//mksyscalltbl: line 48: /tmp/create-table-xvUQdD: Permission denied

mksyscalltbl is compiled with default host includes, but run with
compiling kernel tree includes, causing some syscall numbers to being
undeclared.

Committer testing:

Before this patch, in my cross build environment, no build problems, but
these new syscalls were not in the syscalls.c generated from the
unistd.h file, which is a bug, this patch fixes it:

perfbuilder@6e20056ed532:/git/perf$ tail /tmp/build/perf/arch/arm64/include/generated/asm/syscalls.c
	[292] = "io_pgetevents",
	[293] = "rseq",
	[294] = "kexec_file_load",
	[424] = "pidfd_send_signal",
	[425] = "io_uring_setup",
	[426] = "io_uring_enter",
	[427] = "io_uring_register",
	[428] = "syscalls",
};
perfbuilder@6e20056ed532:/git/perf$ strings /tmp/build/perf/perf | egrep '^(io_uring_|pidfd_|kexec_file)'
kexec_file_load
pidfd_send_signal
io_uring_setup
io_uring_enter
io_uring_register
perfbuilder@6e20056ed532:/git/perf$
$

Well, there is that last "syscalls" thing, but that looks like some
other bug.

XMM registers can be collected on Icelake and later platforms.

Add specific arch__intr_reg_mask(), which creating an event to check if
the kernel and hardware can collect XMM registers.

Test on Skylake which doesn't support XMM registers collection. There is
nothing changed.

Don't set attr.sample_period as a named struct init, as it is part of an
unnamed union in 'struct perf_event_attr', and doing so breaks the build
on older gcc versions, such as:

  gcc version 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-55)
  gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-23) (GCC)
