perf tools: Add a "dso_size" sort order

2018-04-02T10:57:37Z

Add DSO size to perf report/top sort output list.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55Z

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

perf tools: Provide mutex wrappers for pthreads rwlocks

2017-09-21T16:28:06Z

Andi reported a performance drop in single threaded perf tools such as 'perf script' due to the growing number of locks being put in place to allow for multithreaded tools, so wrap the POSIX threads rwlock routines with the names used for such kinds of locks in the Linux kernel and then allow for tools to ask for those locks to be used or not. I.e. a tool may have a multithreaded phase and then switch to single threaded, like the upcoming patches for the synthesizing of PERF_RECORD_{FORK,MMAP,etc} for pre-existing processes to then switch to single threaded mode in 'perf top'. The init routines will not be conditional, this way starting as single threaded to then move to multi threaded mode should be possible.

perf maps: Lookup maps in both intitial mountns and inner mountns.

2017-07-19T02:14:09Z

If a process is in a mountns and has symbols in /tmp/perf-.map, look first in the namespace using the tgid for the pidns that the process might be in. If the map isn't found there, try looking in the mountns where perf is running, and use the tgid that's appropriate for perf's pid namespace. If all else fails, use the original pid. This allows us to locate a symbol map file in the mount namespace, if it was generated there. However, we also try the tool's /tmp in case it's there instead.

perf symbols: Allow user probes on versioned symbols

2017-05-02T21:23:11Z

Symbol versioning, as in glibc, results in symbols being defined as: @[@] (Note that "@@" identifies a default symbol, if the symbol name is repeated.) perf is currently unable to deal with this, and is unable to create user probes at such symbols: -- $ nm /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 | grep pthread_create 0000000000008d30 t __pthread_create_2_1 0000000000008d30 T pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.17 $ /usr/bin/sudo perf probe -v -x /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 pthread_create probe-definition(0): pthread_create symbol:pthread_create file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null) 0 arguments Open Debuginfo file: /usr/lib/debug/lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread-2.19.so Try to find probe point from debuginfo.

perf unwind: Call unwind__prepare_access for forked thread

2016-07-04T23:27:25Z

Currently we call unwind__prepare_access for map event. In case we report fork event the thread inherits its parent's maps and unwind__prepare_access is never called for the thread. This causes unwind__get_entries seeing uninitialized unwind_libunwind_ops and thus returning no callchain. Adding unwind__prepare_access calls for fork even processing.
