perf probe: Add warning message if there is unexpected event name

[ Upstream commit 9f5c6d8777a2d962b0eeacb2a16f37da6bea545b ] This improve the error message so that user can know event-name error before writing new events to kprobe-events interface.

perf probe: Find versioned symbols from map

2018-04-12T10:31:02Z

[ Upstream commit 4b3a2716dd785fabb9f6ac80c1d53cb29a88169d ] Commit d80406453ad4 ("perf symbols: Allow user probes on versioned symbols") allows user to find default versioned symbols (with "@@") in map. However, it did not enable normal versioned symbol (with "@") for perf-probe. E.g. ===== # ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state Failed to find symbol malloc_get_state in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so Error: Failed to add events. ===== This solves above issue by improving perf-probe symbol search function, as below. ===== # ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state Added new event: probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe_libc:malloc_get_state -aR sleep 1 # ./perf probe -l probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state@GLIBC_2.2.5 in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so) ===== Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Reviewed-by: Thomas Richter Acked-by: Ravi Bangoria Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Paul Clarke Cc: bhargavb Cc: linux-rt-users@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/151275049269.24652.1639103455496216255.stgit@devbox Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

perf probe: Fix kprobe blacklist checking condition

2017-08-29T14:14:12Z

The commit 9aaf5a5f479b ("perf probe: Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events"), 'perf probe' supports checking the blacklist of the fuctions which can not be probed. But the checking condition is wrong, that the end_addr of the symbol which is the start_addr of the next symbol can't be included. Committer notes: IOW make it match its kernel counterpart in kernel/kprobes.c: bool within_kprobe_blacklist(unsigned long addr) Each entry have as its end address not its end address, but the first address _outside_ that symbol, which for related functions, is the first address of the next symbol, like these from kernel/trace/trace_probe.c: 0xffffffffbd198df0-0xffffffffbd198e40 print_type_u8 0xffffffffbd198e40-0xffffffffbd198e90 print_type_u16 0xffffffffbd198e90-0xffffffffbd198ee0 print_type_u32 0xffffffffbd198ee0-0xffffffffbd198f30 print_type_u64 0xffffffffbd198f30-0xffffffffbd198f80 print_type_s8 0xffffffffbd198f80-0xffffffffbd198fd0 print_type_s16 0xffffffffbd198fd0-0xffffffffbd199020 print_type_s32 0xffffffffbd199020-0xffffffffbd199070 print_type_s64 0xffffffffbd199070-0xffffffffbd1990c0 print_type_x8 0xffffffffbd1990c0-0xffffffffbd199110 print_type_x16 0xffffffffbd199110-0xffffffffbd199160 print_type_x32 0xffffffffbd199160-0xffffffffbd1991b0 print_type_x64 But not always: 0xffffffffbd1997b0-0xffffffffbd1997c0 fetch_kernel_stack_address (kernel/trace/trace_probe.c) 0xffffffffbd1c57f0-0xffffffffbd1c58b0 __context_tracking_enter (kernel/context_tracking.c) Signed-off-by: Li Bin Cc: Masami Hiramatsu Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Wang Nan Cc: zhangmengting@huawei.com Fixes: 9aaf5a5f479b ("perf probe: Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1504011443-7269-1-git-send-email-huawei.libin@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf buildid-cache: Support binary objects from other namespaces

2017-07-19T02:14:11Z

Teach buildid-cache how to add, remove, and update binary objects from other mount namespaces. Allow probe events tracing binaries in different namespaces to add their objects to the probe and build-id caches too. As a handy side effect, this also lets us access SDT probes in binaries from alternate mount namespaces.

perf probe: Allow placing uprobes in alternate namespaces.

2017-07-19T02:14:10Z

Teaches perf how to place a uprobe on a file that's in a different mount namespace. The user must add the probe using the --target-ns argument to perf probe. Once it has been placed, it may be recorded against without further namespace-specific commands.

perf probe: Fix probe definition for inlined functions

2017-06-22T19:08:09Z

In commit 613f050d68a8 ("perf probe: Fix to probe on gcc generated functions in modules"), the offset from symbol is, incorrectly, added to the trace point address. This leads to incorrect probe trace points for inlined functions and when using relative line number on symbols. Prior this patch: $ perf probe -m nf_nat -D in_range p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range.isra.9+0 $ perf probe -m i40e -D i40e_clean_rx_irq p:probe/i40e_clean_rx_irq i40e:i40e_napi_poll+2212 $ perf probe -m i40e -D i40e_clean_rx_irq:16 p:probe/i40e_clean_rx_irq i40e:i40e_lan_xmit_frame+626 After: $ perf probe -m nf_nat -D in_range p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range.isra.9+0 $ perf probe -m i40e -D i40e_clean_rx_irq p:probe/i40e_clean_rx_irq i40e:i40e_napi_poll+1106 $ perf probe -m i40e -D i40e_clean_rx_irq:16 p:probe/i40e_clean_rx_irq i40e:i40e_napi_poll+2665 Committer testing: Using 'pfunct', a tool found in the 'dwarves' package [1], one can ask what are the functions that while not being explicitely marked as inline, were inlined by the compiler: # pfunct --cc_inlined /lib/modules/4.12.0-rc4+/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/e1000e.ko | head __ew32 e1000_regdump e1000e_dump_ps_pages e1000_desc_unused e1000e_systim_to_hwtstamp e1000e_rx_hwtstamp e1000e_update_rdt_wa e1000e_update_tdt_wa e1000_put_txbuf e1000_consume_page Then ask 'perf probe' to produce the kprobe_tracer probe definitions for two of them: # perf probe -m e1000e -D e1000e_rx_hwtstamp p:probe/e1000e_rx_hwtstamp e1000e:e1000_receive_skb+74 # perf probe -m e1000e -D e1000_consume_page p:probe/e1000_consume_page e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+876 p:probe/e1000_consume_page_1 e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+1506 p:probe/e1000_consume_page_2 e1000e:e1000_clean_rx_irq_ps+1074 Now lets concentrate on the 'e1000_consume_page' one, that was inlined twice in e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq(), lets see what readelf says about the DWARF tags for that function: $ readelf -wi /lib/modules/4.12.0-rc4+/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/e1000e.ko <1><13e27b>: Abbrev Number: 121 (DW_TAG_subprogram) <13e27c> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xa8945): e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq <13e287> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x17a30 <3><13e6ef>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine) <13e6f0> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0x13ed2c> <13e6f4> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x17be6 <1><13ed2c>: Abbrev Number: 142 (DW_TAG_subprogram) <13ed2e> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xa54c3): e1000_consume_page So, the first time in e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq() where e1000_consume_page() is inlined is at PC 0x17be6, which subtracted from e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq()'s address, gives us the offset we should use in the probe definition: 0x17be6 - 0x17a30 = 438 but above we have 876, which is twice as much. Lets see the second inline expansion of e1000_consume_page() in e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq(): <3><13e86e>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine) <13e86f> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0x13ed2c> <13e873> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x17d21 0x17d21 - 0x17a30 = 753 So we where adding it at twice the offset from the containing function as we should. And then after this patch: # perf probe -m e1000e -D e1000e_rx_hwtstamp p:probe/e1000e_rx_hwtstamp e1000e:e1000_receive_skb+37 # perf probe -m e1000e -D e1000_consume_page p:probe/e1000_consume_page e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+438 p:probe/e1000_consume_page_1 e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+753 p:probe/e1000_consume_page_2 e1000e:e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq+1353 # Which matches the two first expansions and shows that because we were doubling the offset it would spill over the next function: readelf -sw /lib/modules/4.12.0-rc4+/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/e1000e.ko 673: 0000000000017a30 1626 FUNC LOCAL DEFAULT 2 e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq 674: 0000000000018090 2013 FUNC LOCAL DEFAULT 2 e1000_clean_rx_irq_ps This is the 3rd inline expansion of e1000_consume_page() in e1000_clean_jumbo_rx_irq(): <3><13ec77>: Abbrev Number: 119 (DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine) <13ec78> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0x13ed2c> <13ec7c> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x17f79 0x17f79 - 0x17a30 = 1353 So: 0x17a30 + 2 * 1353 = 0x184c2 And: 0x184c2 - 0x18090 = 1074 Which explains the bogus third expansion for e1000_consume_page() to end up at: p:probe/e1000_consume_page_2 e1000e:e1000_clean_rx_irq_ps+1074 All fixed now :-) [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/pahole/pahole.git/ Signed-off-by: Björn Töpel Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Acked-by: Magnus Karlsson Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: 613f050d68a8 ("perf probe: Fix to probe on gcc generated functions in modules") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170621164134.5701-1-bjorn.topel@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
