perf: Fix building warning on ARM 32

2014-12-19T12:09:43+00:00

Commit 85c116a6cb91 ("perf callchain: Make get_srcline fall back to sym+offset")
introduces asprintf() call and matches '%ld' to a u64 argument, which is
incorrect on ARM:

   CC       /home/wn/util/srcline.o
 util/srcline.c: In function 'get_srcline':
 util/srcline.c:297:6: error: format '%ld' expects argument of type 'long int', but argument 4 has type 'u64' [-Werror=format]
 cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
 make[1]: *** [/home/wn/util/srcline.o] Error 1

In addition, all users of get_srcline() use u64 addr, and libbfd
also use 64 bit bfd_vma as address. This patch also fix
prototype of get_srcline() and addr2line() to use u64 addr
instead of unsigned long.

perf symbols: Fix use after free in filename__read_build_id

2014-12-17T14:58:17+00:00

In filename__read_build_id, phdr points to memory in buf, which gets realloced
before a call to fseek that uses phdr->p_offset. This change stores the value
of p_offset before buf is realloced, so the fseek can use the value safely.

perf evlist: Use roundup_pow_of_two

2014-12-17T14:58:16+00:00

And remove the equivalent next_pow2{_l} functions.

perf tools: Make the mmap length autotuning more robust

2014-12-17T14:58:14+00:00

If /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb is not (power of 2 + PAGE_SIZE_in_kb)
and we let the perf tools do mmap length autosizing based on that, then, for
non-CAP_IPC_LOCK users when /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid is > -1, then
we get an -EINVAL that ends up in:

  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ trace usleep 1
  Invalid argument
  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ perf record usleep 1
  failed to mmap with 22 (Invalid argument)

After this fix:

  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ trace usleep 1
  
   0.806 ( 0.006 ms): munmap(addr: 0x7f7e4740a000, len: 66467) = 0

   0.873 ( 0.003 ms): brk(brk: 0x7dc000                      ) = 0x7dc000
   0.877 ( 0.001 ms): brk(                                   ) = 0x7dc000
   0.953 ( 0.058 ms): nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7fff26ab9420         ) = 0

tools: Move bitops.h from tools/perf/util to tools/

2014-12-17T14:17:53+00:00

So that we better mirror the kernel sources and make it available for
other tools.
