perf cs-etm: Fix timeless decode mode detection

2023-05-17T11:58:53Z

[ Upstream commit 449067f3fc9f340da54e383738286881e6634d0b ] In this context, timeless refers to the trace data rather than the perf event data. But when detecting whether there are timestamps in the trace data or not, the presence of a timestamp flag on any perf event is used. Since commit f42c0ce573df ("perf record: Always get text_poke events with --kcore option") timestamps were added to a tracking event when --kcore is used which breaks this detection mechanism. Fix it by detecting if trace timestamps exist by looking at the ETM config flags. This would have always been a more accurate way of doing it anyway. This fixes the following error message when using --kcore with Coresight: $ perf record --kcore -e cs_etm// --per-thread $ perf report The perf.data/data data has no samples!

perf cs-etm: Print auxtrace info even if OpenCSD isn't linked

2022-12-14T14:24:31Z

Printing the info doesn't have any dependency on OpenCSD, and neither does recording Coresight data. Because it's sometimes useful to look at the info for debugging, it makes sense to be able to see it on the same platform that the recording was made on. So pull the auxtrace info printing parts into a new file that is always compiled into Perf.

perf cs-etm: Cleanup cs_etm__process_auxtrace_info()

2022-12-14T14:24:31Z

hdr is a copy of 3 values of ptr and doesn't need to be long lived. So just use ptr instead which means the malloc and the extra error path can be removed to simplify things.

perf cs-etm: Tidy up auxtrace info header printing

2022-12-14T14:24:31Z

cs_etm__print_auxtrace_info() is called twice in case there is an error somewhere in cs_etm__process_auxtrace_info(), but all the info is already available at the beginning so just print it there instead. Also use u64 and the already cast ptr variable to make it more consistent with the rest of the etm code.

perf cs-etm: Fix corrupt inject files when only last branch option is enabled

2022-02-16T16:49:25Z

'perf inject' with Coresight data generates files that cannot be opened when only the last branch option is specified: perf inject -i perf.data --itrace=l -o inject.data perf script -i inject.data 0x33faa8 [0x8]: failed to process type: 9 [Bad address] This is because cs_etm__synth_instruction_sample() is called even when the sample type for instructions hasn't been setup. Last branch records are attached to instruction samples so it doesn't make sense to generate them when --itrace=i isn't specified anyway. This change disables all calls of cs_etm__synth_instruction_sample() unless --itrace=i is specified, resulting in a file with no samples if only --itrace=l is provided, rather than a bad file.

perf cs-etm: No-op refactor of synth opt usage

2022-02-16T16:49:25Z

sample_branches and sample_instructions are already saved in the synth_opts struct. Other usages like synth_opts.last_branch don't save a value, so make this more consistent by always going through synth_opts and not saving duplicate values.

Currently perf reports "Cannot allocate memory" which isn't very helpful for a potentially user facing issue. If we add a new magic number in the future, perf will be able to report unrecognised magic numbers.
