perf tools: Fix dsosaddnew to put dso after adding it to the list

2015-11-19T16:19:20+00:00

__dsos__addnew should drop the constructor reference to dso after adding
it to the list, because __dsos__add() will get a reference that will be
kept while it is in the list.

This fixes DSO leaks when entries are removed to the list and the refcount
never gets to zero.

perf symbols: Fix dso lookup by long name and missing buildids

2015-11-13T14:14:36+00:00

Commit 4598a0a6d22f ("perf symbols: Improve DSO long names lookup speed
with rbtree") Added a tree to lookup dsos by long name.  That tree gets
corrupted whenever a dso long name is changed because the tree is not
updated.

One effect of that is buildid-list does not work with the 'with-hits'
option because dso lookup fails and results in two structs for the same
dso.  The first has the buildid but no hits, the second has hits but no
buildid. e.g.

Before:

  $ tools/perf/perf record ls
  arch     certs    CREDITS  Documentation  firmware  include
  ipc      Kconfig  lib      Makefile       net       REPORTING-BUGS

  drivers  fs       init     Kbuild         kernel    MAINTAINERS
  mm       README   samples  security       tools     virt
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.012 MB perf.data (11 samples) ]
  $ tools/perf/perf buildid-list
  574da826c66538a8d9060d393a8866289bd06005 [kernel.kallsyms]
  30c94dc66a1fe95180c3d68d2b89e576d5ae213c /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so
  $ tools/perf/perf buildid-list -H
  574da826c66538a8d9060d393a8866289bd06005 [kernel.kallsyms]
  0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so

After:

  $ tools/perf/perf buildid-list -H
  574da826c66538a8d9060d393a8866289bd06005 [kernel.kallsyms]
  30c94dc66a1fe95180c3d68d2b89e576d5ae213c /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so

The fix is to record the root of the tree on the dso so that
dso__set_long_name() can update the tree when the long name changes.

perf tools: Reference count struct dso

2015-06-08T13:31:40+00:00

This has a different model than the 'thread' and 'map' struct lifetimes:
there is not a definitive "don't use this DSO anymore" event, i.e. we may
get many 'struct map' holding references to the '/usr/lib64/libc-2.20.so'
DSO but then at some point some DSO may have no references but we still
don't want to straight away release its resources, because "soon" we may
get a new 'struct map' that needs it and we want to reuse its symtab or
other resources.

So we need some way to garbage collect it when crossing some memory
usage threshold, which is left for anoter patch, for now it is
sufficient to release it when calling dsos__exit(), i.e. when deleting
the whole list as part of deleting the 'struct machine' containing it,
which will leave only referenced objects being used.

perf tools: Protect accesses the dso rbtrees/lists with a rw lock

2015-06-08T13:31:40+00:00

To allow concurrent access, next step: refcount struct dso instances, so
that we can ditch unused them when the last map pointing to it goes
away.

perf tools: Deal with kernel module names in '[]' correctly

2015-06-03T13:02:38+00:00

Before patch ba92732e9808 ('perf kmaps: Check kmaps to make code more
robust'), 'perf report' and 'perf annotate' will segfault if trace data
contains kernel module information like this:

 # perf report -D -i ./perf.data
 ...
 0 0 0x188 [0x50]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP -1/0: [0xffffffbff1018000(0xf068000) @ 0]: x [test_module]
 ...

 # perf report -i ./perf.data --objdump=/path/to/objdump --kallsyms=/path/to/kallsyms

 perf: Segmentation fault
 -------- backtrace --------
 /path/to/perf[0x503478]

 /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4)[0x7fb201f23bd4]
 /path/to/perf[0x42dfc4]

This is because __kmod_path__parse treats '[' leading names as kernel
name instead of names of kernel module.

If perf.data contains build information and the buildid of such modules
can be found, the dso->kernel of it will be set to DSO_TYPE_KERNEL by
__event_process_build_id(), not kernel module.

It will then be passed to dso__load() -> dso__load_kernel_sym() ->
dso__load_kcore() if --kallsyms is provided.

The refered patch adds NULL pointer checker to avoid segfault. However,
such kernel modules are still processed incorrectly.

This patch fixes __kmod_path__parse, makes it treat names like
'[test_module]' as kernel modules.

kmod-path.c is also update to reflect the above changes.

Similar to machine__findnew_thread(), also prepping for refcounting and

perf machine: No need to have two DSOs lists

2015-05-29T15:43:43+00:00

We can, given a DSO, figure out if it is a kernel, a kernel module or
a userlevel DSO, so stop having to process two lists in several
functions.

If searching becomes an issue at some point, we can have them in a
rbtree, etc.

2015-05-29T15:43:43+00:00

It never was a 'struct dso' method, so fix that by rename
dso__kernel_findnew() to machine__findnew_kernel().

At some point I'll move it all to the machine.[ch] files, for now
lets ease patch review by not moving too much stuff.

perf tools: Add dso__data_get/put_fd()

2015-05-27T15:21:44+00:00

Using dso__data_fd() in multi-thread environment is not safe since
returned fd can be closed and/or reused anytime.

So convert it to the dso__data_get/put_fd() pair to protect the access
with lock.

The original dso__data_fd() is deprecated and kept only for testing.

perf tools: Get rid of dso__data_fd() from dso__data_size()

2015-05-27T15:21:44+00:00

It seems that the dso__data_fd() was needed to find a binary type
since open in data_file_size() alone used to fail.

But as it can open the dso fine now, the dso__data_fd() can go away.
