perf report: Add stub processing of compressed events for -D

2019-05-15T19:36:49Z

Committer note: Split from a larger patch, this only dumps PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED as unhandled, so that when we introduce the record part in the next patch, we don't see unhandled events when using 'perf record -D'. Changed it so that we dump the event if the handler is just a stub, i.e. for the case where we don't have ZSTD linked but we're processing a perf.data file generated by a tool with that linked. Also when failing to decompress we can't just dump the uncompressed event and return 0, we have to propagate the error.

perf tools: Handle PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT

2019-01-21T20:00:57Z

This patch adds basic handling of PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT. Tracking of PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT is OFF by default. Option --bpf-event is added to turn it on. Committer notes: Add dummy machine__process_bpf_event() variant that returns zero for systems without HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT, such as Alpine Linux, unbreaking the build in such systems. Remove the needless include from bpf->event.h, provide just forward declarations for the structs and unions in the parameters, to reduce compilation time and needless rebuilds when machine.h gets changed. Committer testing: When running with: # perf record --bpf-event On an older kernel where PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT and PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL is not present, we fallback to removing those two bits from perf_event_attr, making the tool to continue to work on older kernels: perf_event_attr: size 112 { sample_period, sample_freq } 4000 sample_type IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD read_format ID disabled 1 inherit 1 mmap 1 comm 1 freq 1 enable_on_exec 1 task 1 precise_ip 3 sample_id_all 1 exclude_guest 1 mmap2 1 comm_exec 1 ksymbol 1 bpf_event 1 ------------------------------------------------------------ sys_perf_event_open: pid 5779 cpu 0 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 sys_perf_event_open failed, error -22 switching off bpf_event ------------------------------------------------------------ perf_event_attr: size 112 { sample_period, sample_freq } 4000 sample_type IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD read_format ID disabled 1 inherit 1 mmap 1 comm 1 freq 1 enable_on_exec 1 task 1 precise_ip 3 sample_id_all 1 exclude_guest 1 mmap2 1 comm_exec 1 ksymbol 1 ------------------------------------------------------------ sys_perf_event_open: pid 5779 cpu 0 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 sys_perf_event_open failed, error -22 switching off ksymbol ------------------------------------------------------------ perf_event_attr: size 112 { sample_period, sample_freq } 4000 sample_type IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD read_format ID disabled 1 inherit 1 mmap 1 comm 1 freq 1 enable_on_exec 1 task 1 precise_ip 3 sample_id_all 1 exclude_guest 1 mmap2 1 comm_exec 1 ------------------------------------------------------------ And then proceeds to work without those two features. As passing --bpf-event is an explicit action performed by the user, perhaps we should emit a warning telling that the kernel has no such feature, but this can be done on top of this patch. Now with a kernel that supports these events, start the 'record --bpf-event -a' and then run 'perf trace sleep 10000' that will use the BPF augmented_raw_syscalls.o prebuilt (for another kernel version even) and thus should generate PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT events: [root@quaco ~]# perf record -e dummy -a --bpf-event ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.713 MB perf.data ] [root@quaco ~]# bpftool prog 13: cgroup_skb tag 7be49e3934a125ba gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:43-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 13,14 14: cgroup_skb tag 2a142ef67aaad174 gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:43-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 13,14 15: cgroup_skb tag 7be49e3934a125ba gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:43-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 15,16 16: cgroup_skb tag 2a142ef67aaad174 gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:43-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 15,16 17: cgroup_skb tag 7be49e3934a125ba gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:44-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 17,18 18: cgroup_skb tag 2a142ef67aaad174 gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:44-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 17,18 21: cgroup_skb tag 7be49e3934a125ba gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:45-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 21,22 22: cgroup_skb tag 2a142ef67aaad174 gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:09:45-0300 uid 0 xlated 296B jited 229B memlock 4096B map_ids 21,22 31: tracepoint name sys_enter tag 12504ba9402f952f gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:19:56-0300 uid 0 xlated 512B jited 374B memlock 4096B map_ids 30,29,28 32: tracepoint name sys_exit tag c1bd85c092d6e4aa gpl loaded_at 2019-01-19T09:19:56-0300 uid 0 xlated 256B jited 191B memlock 4096B map_ids 30,29 # perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT | nl 1 0 55834574849 0x4fc8 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 13 2 0 60129542145 0x5118 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 14 3 0 64424509441 0x5268 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 15 4 0 68719476737 0x53b8 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 16 5 0 73014444033 0x5508 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 17 6 0 77309411329 0x5658 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 18 7 0 90194313217 0x57a8 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 21 8 0 94489280513 0x58f8 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 22 9 7 620922484360 0xb6390 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 29 10 7 620922486018 0xb6410 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 2, flags 0, id 29 11 7 620922579199 0xb6490 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 30 12 7 620922580240 0xb6510 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 2, flags 0, id 30 13 7 620922765207 0xb6598 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 31 14 7 620922874543 0xb6620 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT bpf event with type 1, flags 0, id 32 # There, the 31 and 32 tracepoint BPF programs put in place by 'perf trace'.

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
