perf script python: Fix dict reference counting

2018-08-24T11:07:07Z

[ Upstream commit db0ba84c04ef2cf293aaada5ae97531127844d9d ] The dictionaries are attached to the parameter tuple that steals the references and takes care of releasing them when appropriate. The code should not decrement the reference counts explicitly. E.g. if libpython has been built with reference debugging enabled, the superfluous DECREFs will trigger this error when running perf script: Fatal Python error: Objects/tupleobject.c:238 object at 0x7f10f2041b40 has negative ref count -1 Aborted (core dumped) If the reference debugging is not enabled, the superfluous DECREFs might cause the dict objects to be silently released while they are still in use. This may trigger various other assertions or just cause perf crashes and/or weird and unexpected data changes in the stored Python objects.

perf llvm-utils: Remove bashism from kernel include fetch script

2018-08-24T11:07:06Z

[ Upstream commit f6432b9f65001651412dbc3589d251534822d4ab ] Like system(), popen() calls /bin/sh, which may/may not be bash. Script when run on dash and encounters the line, yields: exit: Illegal number: -1 checkbashisms report on script content: possible bashism (exit|return with negative status code): exit -1 Remove the bashism and use the more portable non-zero failure status code 1.

perf tools: Fix crash caused by accessing feat_ops[HEADER_LAST_FEATURE]

2018-08-24T11:06:51Z

[ Upstream commit 92ead7ee30c80f8852d28735cbcb9d79bc85f715 ] perf_event__process_feature() accesses feat_ops[HEADER_LAST_FEATURE] which is not defined and thus perf is crashing. HEADER_LAST_FEATURE is used as an end marker for the perf report but it's unused for perf script/annotate. Ignore HEADER_LAST_FEATURE for perf script/annotate, just like it is done in 'perf report'.

perf record: Support s390 random socket_id assignment

2018-08-24T11:06:50Z

[ Upstream commit 01766229533f9bdb1144a41b4345c8c7286da7b4 ] On s390 the socket identifier assigned to a CPU identifier is random and (depending on the configuration of the LPAR) may be higher than the CPU identifier. This is currently not supported. Fix this by allowing arbitrary socket identifiers being assigned to CPU id.

[ Upstream commit ceac7b79df7bd67ef9aaf464b0179a2686aff4ee ] Currently all the event parsing fails end up in the event_pmu rule, and display misleading help like: $ perf stat -e inst kill event syntax error: 'inst' \___ Cannot find PMU `inst'.

commit 9fb523363f6e3984457fee95bb7019395384ffa7 upstream. Some Atom CPUs can produce FUP packets that contain NLIP (next linear instruction pointer) instead of CLIP (current linear instruction pointer). That will result in "Unexpected indirect branch" errors. Fix by comparing IP to NLIP in that case.

perf intel-pt: Fix MTC timing after overflow

2018-07-03T09:27:06Z

commit dd27b87ab5fcf3ea1c060b5e3ab5d31cc78e9f4c upstream. On some platforms, overflows will clear before MTC wraparound, and there is no following TSC/TMA packet. In that case the previous TMA is valid. Since there will be a valid TMA either way, stop setting 'have_tma' to false upon overflow.
