perf bench: Update the copies of x86's mem{cpy,set}_64.S

2019-12-02T14:40:57+00:00

And update linux/linkage.h, which requires in turn that we make these
files switch from ENTRY()/ENDPROC() to SYM_FUNC_START()/SYM_FUNC_END():

  tools/perf/arch/arm64/tests/regs_load.S
  tools/perf/arch/arm/tests/regs_load.S
  tools/perf/arch/powerpc/tests/regs_load.S
  tools/perf/arch/x86/tests/regs_load.S

We also need to switch SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL() to SYM_FUNC_START() for
the functions used directly by 'perf bench', and update
tools/perf/check_headers.sh to ignore those changes when checking if the
kernel original files drifted from the copies we carry.

This is to get the changes from:

  6dcc5627f6ae ("x86/asm: Change all ENTRY+ENDPROC to SYM_FUNC_*")
  ef1e03152cb0 ("x86/asm: Make some functions local")
  e9b9d020c487 ("x86/asm: Annotate aliases")

And address these tools/perf build warnings:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S'
  diff -u tools/arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S

x86: xen: insn: Decode Xen and KVM emulate-prefix signature

2019-10-17T19:31:57+00:00

Decode Xen and KVM's emulate-prefix signature by x86 insn decoder.
It is called "prefix" but actually not x86 instruction prefix, so
this adds insn.emulate_prefix_size field instead of reusing
insn.prefixes.

If x86 decoder finds a special sequence of instructions of
XEN_EMULATE_PREFIX and 'ud2a; .ascii "kvm"', it just counts the
length, set insn.emulate_prefix_size and fold it with the next
instruction. In other words, the signature and the next instruction
is treated as a single instruction.

tools headers uapi: Sync linux/fs.h with the kernel sources

2019-09-30T20:29:22+00:00

To pick the changes from:

  78a1b96bcf7a ("fscrypt: add FS_IOC_REMOVE_ENCRYPTION_KEY_ALL_USERS ioctl")
  23c688b54016 ("fscrypt: allow unprivileged users to add/remove keys for v2 policies")

  2336d0deb2d4 ("fscrypt: use FSCRYPT_ prefix for uapi constants")
  7af0ab0d3aab ("fs, fscrypt: move uapi definitions to new header ")

That don't trigger any changes in tooling, as it so far is used only
for:

  $ grep -l 'fs\.h' tools/perf/trace/beauty/*.sh | xargs grep regex=
  tools/perf/trace/beauty/rename_flags.sh:regex='^[[:space:]]*#[[:space:]]*define[[:space:]]+RENAME_([[:alnum:]_]+)[[:space:]]+\(1[[:space:]]*<<[[:space:]]*([[:xdigit:]]+)[[:space:]]*\)[[:space:]]*.*'

  $

This silences this perf build warning:

perf build: Ignore intentional differences for the x86 insn decoder

2019-09-01T01:27:52+00:00

Since we need to build this in !x86, we need to explicitely use the x86
files, not things like asm/insn.h, so we intentionally differ from the
master copy in the kernel sources, add -I diff directives to ignore just
these differences when checking for drift.

perf intel-pt: Use shared x86 insn decoder

2019-09-01T01:27:52+00:00

Now that there's a common version of the decoder for all tools, use it
instead of the local copy.

Also use perf's check-headers.sh script to diff the decoder files to
make sure they remain in sync with the kernel version.  Objtool has a
similar check.

Committer notes:

Had to keep this all pointing explicitely to x86 headers/files, i.e.
instead of asm/isnn.h we had to use ../include/asm/insn.h when the files
were in differemt dirs, or just replace "" with "foo.h".

This way we continue to be able to process perf.data files with Intel PT
traces in distros other than x86.

Also fixed up the awk script paths to use $(srcdir)/tools/arch instead
or relative directories so that we keep detached tarballs (make help |
grep perf) working.

For now the include lines in these headers are being ignored so as not
to flag false reports of kernel/tools out of sync.

tools headers: Grab copy of linux/const.h, needed by linux/bits.h

So that can update the copy of linux/bits.h that now uses macros defined
in const.h and that are not available in older systems.

tools perf: Move from sane_ctype.h obtained from git to the Linux's original

2019-06-26T00:02:47+00:00

We got the sane_ctype.h headers from git and kept using it so far, but
since that code originally came from the kernel sources to the git
sources, perhaps its better to just use the one in the kernel, so that
we can leverage tools/perf/check_headers.sh to be notified when our copy
gets out of sync, i.e. when fixes or goodies are added to the code we've
copied.

This will help with things like tools/lib/string.c where we want to have
more things in common with the kernel, such as strim(), skip_spaces(),
etc so as to go on removing the things that we have in tools/perf/util/
and instead using the code in the kernel, indirectly and removing things
like EXPORT_SYMBOL(), etc, getting notified when fixes and improvements
are made to the original code.

Hopefully this also should help with reducing the difference of code
hosted in tools/ to the one in the kernel proper.
