When cross compiling perf and I want to link against a self-compiled
libunwind, I usually make the custom path where the libunwind headers
exist visible by adding the libunwind prefix to the include path when
compiling perf, i.e.:
~~~~~
$ ls $HOME/projects/compiled/other/include/
libunwind-coredump.h libunwind.h libunwind-x86_64.h
libunwind-common.h libunwind-dynamic.h libunwind-ptrace.h
unwind.h
$ make EXTRA_CFLAGS="-I$HOME/projects/compiled/other/include/
~~~~~~
Note the `unwind.h` header from libunwind which leads to compile
errors when compiling tests/dwarf-unwind.c, since it shadows perf's
util/unwind.h:
~~~~~
tests/dwarf-unwind.c:41:32: error: ‘struct unwind_entry’ declared inside parameter list will not be visible outside of this definition or declaration [-Werror]
static int unwind_entry(struct unwind_entry *entry, void *arg)

'Object code reading' test always fails on powerpc guest. Two reasons
for the failure are:
1. When elf section is too big (size beyond 'unsigned int' max value).
objdump fails to disassemble from such section. This was fixed with
commit 0f6329bd7fc ("binutils/objdump: Fix disassemble for huge elf
sections") in binutils.
2. When the sample is from hypervisor. Hypervisor symbols can not be
resolved within guest and thus thread__find_addr_map() fails for such
symbols. Fix this by ignoring hypervisor symbols in the test.

Add some simple tests to perf test to test data source printing.
v2: Make the tests actually checked for the correct name of Forward
v3: Adjust to new encoding
Committer notes:
Avoid the in place declaration to make this build with older compilers,
for instance, in Debian 7 we get:
tests/mem.c: In function 'test__mem':
tests/mem.c:30:5: error: missing initializer [-Werror=missing-field-initializers]
tests/mem.c:30:5: error: (near initialization for '(anonymous).<anonymous>.mem_snoop') [-Werror=missing-field-initializers]
So just zero a struct, then go on building the unions as needed,
reusing settings from the previous test, i.e. local -> remote, etc.

Enhance the expression parser for more complex metric formulas.
- Support python style IF ELSE operators
- Add an #SMT_On magic variable for formulas that depend on the SMT
status.
Example: 4 *( CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD_ANY / 2 ) if #SMT_on else cycles
- Support MIN/MAX operations
Example: min(1 , IDQ.MITE_UOPS / ( UPI * 16 * ( ICACHE.HIT + ICACHE.MISSES ) / 4.0 ) )
This is useful to fix up problems caused by multiplexing.
- Support | & ^ operators
- Minor cleanups and fixes
- Support an \ escape for operators. This allows to specify event names
like c2-residency
- Support @ as an alternative for / to be able to specify pmus without
conflicts with operators (like msr/tsc/ as msr@tsc@)
Example: (cstate_core@c3\\-residency@ / msr@tsc@) * 100

The event is allocated with cpus == 1, but freed with cpus == real number
When the evsel close function walks the file descriptors it exceeds the
fd xyarray boundaries and reads random memory.
v2:
Now that xyarrays save their original dimensions we can use these to
iterate the two dimensional fd arrays. Fix some users (close, ioctl) in
evsel.c to use these fields directly. This allows simplifying the code
and dropping quite a few function arguments. Adjust all callers by
removing the unneeded arguments.
The actual perf event reading still uses the original values from the
evsel list.

Perf's BPF prologue generator unconditionally fetches 8 bytes for
function parameters, which causes problems on big endian machines. Thomas
gives a detailed analysis for this problem:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/968ebda5-abe4-8830-8d69-49f62529d151@linux.vnet.ibm.com
---- 8< ----
I investigated perf test BPF for s390x and have a question regarding
the 38.3 subtest (bpf-prologue test) which fails on s390x.
When I turn on trace_printk in tests/bpf-script-test-prologue.c
I see this output in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace:
[root@s8360047 perf]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace

[...]
There are 3 parameters the eBPF program tests/bpf-script-test-prologue.c
accesses: f_mode (member of struct file at offset 140) offset and orig. They
are parameters of the lseek() system call triggered in this test case in
function llseek_loop().
What is really strange is the value of f_mode. It is an 8 byte value, whereas
in the probe event it is defined as a 4 byte value. The lower 4 bytes are all
zero and do not belong to member f_mode. The correct value should be 2001d for
read-only and 6001f for read-write open mode.
Here is the output of the 'perf test -vv bpf' trace:

First perf shell test:
# perf test vfs_getname

#
In verbose mode:
# perf test -v vfs_getname
60: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames:
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 19146
Added new event:
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=result->name:string)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames: Ok
#
And if the vmlinux file is not found:
# mv ../build/v4.12.0-rc6+/vmlinux ../build/v4.12.0-rc6+/vmlinux.hidden
# perf test vfs_getname
60: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames: Skip

To allow testing by directly using perf tools in scripts, checking that
the effects on the system are the ones expected and that the output
produced is as well the desired one.
For instance, adding a probe at a well known location with 'perf probe',
then checking that the results from using that probe to record are the
desired ones, etc.
The next csets will introduce tests using this new testing
infrastructure.
The scripts should return 0 for Ok, 1 for FAIL and 2 for SKIP.

This patch adds platform dependency into the test case 15
(perf_event_attr). It is based on a suggestion from Jiri Olsa.
Add a new optional attribute named 'arch' in the [config] section of the
test case file. It is a comma separated list of architecture names this
test can be executed on. For example:
arch = x86_64,alpha,ppc
If this attribute is missing the test is executed on any platform. This
does not break existing behavior.
The values listed for this attribute should be identical to uname -m
output.
If the list starts with an exclamation mark (!) the comparison is
inverted, for example for
arch = !s390x,ppc
the test is not executed on s390x or ppc platforms. The exclamation
mark must be at the beginnning of the list.
Here is an example debug output:
[root@s35lp76]# fgrep arch tests/attr/test-stat-C2
arch = x86_64,alpha,ppc
[root@s35lp76]# PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py \
-d ./tests/attr/ -p ./perf -vvvvv -t test-stat-C1
provides the following output:
running './tests/attr//test-stat-C1'
test limitation 'x86_64,alpha,ppc' <--- new
loading expected events
Event event:base-stat
fd = 1
group_fd = -1
.....
Here is the output when a test is skipped:
[root@s35lp76]# fgrep arch tests/attr/test-stat-C1
arch = !s390x
[root@s35lp76]# PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py \
-d ./tests/attr/ -p ./perf -vvvvv -t test-stat-C1
provides the following output:
test limitation '!s390x' <--- new
skipped [s390x] './tests/attr//test-stat-C1' <--- new
The test is skipped with return code 0.

The 'if' keyword is a define that expands to complex code when

The only affected test case is bpf-script-test-prologue.c
because it uses kernel headers and has 'if' inside.
This patch undefines 'if' to make it passes perf test.
More detailed analysis from a message in this thread, also by Wang:
The problem is caused by following relocation information:

...
So I think the failure is because you enabled CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES.
I can reproduce your buggy result by selecting
CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES in my kbuild:
$ ./perf test LLVM
35: LLVM search and compile :
35.1: Basic BPF llvm compile : Ok
35.2: kbuild searching : Ok
35.3: Compile source for BPF prologue generation: FAILED!
35.4: Compile source for BPF relocation : Skip
Simply undef CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES in clang opts not working
because it is introduced by "#include <uapi/linux/fs.h>", which override
cmdline options. So I think the best way is to undefine 'if' inside BPF
script.

With commit: 0a943cb10c (tools build: Add HOSTARCH Makefile variable)
when building for ARCH=x86_64, ARCH=x86_64 is passed to perf instead of
ARCH=x86, so the perf build process searchs header files from
tools/arch/x86_64/include, which doesn't exist.
The following build failure is seen:
In file included from util/event.c:2:0:
tools/include/uapi/linux/mman.h:4:27: fatal error: uapi/asm/mman.h: No such file or directory

Fix this issue by using SRCARCH instead of ARCH in perf, just like the

Since commit 18e7a45af9 ("perf/x86: Reject non sampling events with
precise_ip") returns -EINVAL for sys_perf_event_open() with an attribute
with (attr.precise_ip > 0 && attr.sample_period == 0), just like is done
in the routine used to probe the max precise level when no events were
passed to 'perf record' or 'perf top', i.e.:
perf_evsel__new_cycles()
perf_event_attr__set_max_precise_ip()
The x86 code, in x86_pmu_hw_config(), which is called all the way from
sys_perf_event_open() did, starting with the aforementioned commit:
/* There's no sense in having PEBS for non sampling events: */
if (!is_sampling_event(event))
return -EINVAL;
Which makes it fail for cycles:ppp, cycles:pp and cycles:p, always using
just the non precise cycles variant.
To make sure that this is the case, I tested it, before this patch,
with:
# perf probe -L x86_pmu_hw_config
<x86_pmu_hw_config@/home/acme/git/linux/arch/x86/events/core.c:0>
0 int x86_pmu_hw_config(struct perf_event *event)
1 {
2 if (event->attr.precise_ip) {
<SNIP>
17 if (event->attr.precise_ip > precise)
18 return -EOPNOTSUPP;
/* There's no sense in having PEBS for non sampling events: */
21 if (!is_sampling_event(event))
22 return -EINVAL;
}
<SNIP>
# perf probe x86_pmu_hw_config:22
Added new events:
probe:x86_pmu_hw_config (on x86_pmu_hw_config:22)
probe:x86_pmu_hw_config_1 (on x86_pmu_hw_config:22)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:x86_pmu_hw_config_1 -aR sleep 1
# perf trace -e perf_event_open,probe:x86_pmu_hwconfig*/max-stack=16/ perf record usleep 1

I.e. that return -EINVAL in x86_pmu_hw_config() is hit three times.
So fix it by just setting attr.sample_period

#
The probe one called from perf_event_attr__set_max_precise_ip() works
the first time, with attr.precise_ip = 3, wit hthe next ones being the
per cpu ones for the cycles:ppp event.
And here is the text from a report and alternative proposed patch by
Thomas-Mich Richter:
---
On s390 the counter and sampling facility do not support a precise IP
skid level and sometimes returns EOPNOTSUPP when structure member
precise_ip in struct perf_event_attr is not set to zero.
On s390 commnd 'perf record -- true' fails with error EOPNOTSUPP. This
happens only when no events are specified on command line.
The functions called are
...
--> perf_evlist__add_default
--> perf_evsel__new_cycles
--> perf_event_attr__set_max_precise_ip
The last function determines the value of structure member precise_ip by
invoking the perf_event_open() system call and checking the return code.
The first successful open is the value for precise_ip.
However the value is determined without setting member sample_period and
indicates no sampling.
On s390 the counter facility and sampling facility are different. The
above procedure determines a precise_ip value of 3 using the counter
facility. Later it uses the sampling facility with a value of 3 and
fails with EOPNOTSUPP.
---
v2: Older compilers (e.g. gcc 4.4.7) don't support referencing members
of unnamed union members in the container struct initialization, so
move from:
struct perf_event_attr attr = {
...
.sample_period = 1,
};
to right after it as:
struct perf_event_attr attr = {
...
};
attr.sample_period = 1;
v3: We need to reset .sample_period to 0 to let the users of
perf_evsel__new_cycles() to properly setup attr.sample_period or
attr.sample_freq. Reported by Ingo Molnar.

If a kernel modules is compressed, it should be decompressed before
running objdump to parse binary data correctly. This fixes a failure of
object code reading test for me.

The following tests are failing on powerpc:
# perf test break
18: Breakpoint overflow signal handler : FAILED!
19: Breakpoint overflow sampling : FAILED!
The powerpc kenel so far does not have support to even create
instruction breakpoints using the perf event interface, so those tests
fail early in the config phase.
I added a '->is_supported()' callback to test struct to be able to
disable specific tests. It seems better than putting ifdefs directly to
the test array.

__kmod_path__parse() uses is_supported_compression() to determine and
parse out compressed module file extensions. On systems without zlib,
this test fails and __kmod_path__parse() continues to strcmp "ko" with
"gz". Don't do this on those systems.

More needs to be done to have the actual functions and variables in a
smaller .c file that can then be included in the python binding,
avoiding dragging more stuff into it.
