[PATCH perf/core v13 00/15] perf-probe --cache and SDT support

[PATCH perf/core v13 00/15] perf-probe --cache and SDT support

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Hi,

Here is the 13th version of the patchset for probe-cache and 
initial SDT support.

Here is the previous v12: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/6/24/147

In this version, I've removed the patch for perf-list to show
SDT events, since at this point we don't support SDT from
perf record. I also change perf-probe --cache --list to show
cached events on only valid (existing) binaries.

Thank you,

[PATCH perf/core v13 01/15] perf probe: Use cache entry if possible

[Masami Hiramatsu]

From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>

Before analyzing debuginfo, try to find a corresponding entry
from probe cache always. This does not depend on --cache,
the --cache enables to store/update cache, but looking up
the cache is always enabled.

 Changes in v12:
  - Rename strlist__for_each to  strlist__for_each_entry.

 Changes in v6:
  - Remove fallback lookup routine by using function name
    as cached event name, because it should be done by following
    patch which supports %cached-event.

cool, keeping the entries for changes for this specific patch helps in
swapping back into my brain the history of this patch, helping in
re-re-re-re-reviewing 8-)

[PATCH perf/core v13 02/15] perf probe: Show all cached probes

[Masami Hiramatsu]

From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>

perf probe --list shows all cached probes when --cache
is given. Each caches are shown with on which binary that
probed. e.g.
  -----
  # perf probe --cache vfs_read \$params
  # perf probe --cache -x /lib64/libc-2.17.so getaddrinfo \$params
  # perf probe --cache --list
  [kernel.kallsyms] (1466a0a250b5d0070c6d0f03c5fed30b237970a1):
  vfs_read $params
  /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so (c31ffe7942bfd77b2fca8f9bd5709d387a86d3bc):
  getaddrinfo $params
  -----
Note that $params requires debuginfo.

 Changes in v12:
  - Rename strlist__for_each to strlist__for_each_entry.
 Changes in v11:
  - Make build_id_cache__list_all() returns strlist directly. (no error code)
  - Harden build_id_cache__list_all() to check directory entries.
 Changes in v7:
  - Remove the top '/' from binary name if it is not a regular file.

This one works:

# perf probe --cache vfs_read \$params
Added new event:
  probe:vfs_read       (on vfs_read with $params)

You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe:vfs_read -aR sleep 1

#

>   # perf probe --cache -x /lib64/libc-2.17.so getaddrinfo \$params

But this one doesn't and provides a funny message:

[root@jouet perf]# perf probe --cache -x /lib64/libc-2.23.so getaddrinfo \$params
Failed to write event: Invalid argument
Please upgrade your kernel to at least 3.14 to have access to feature $params
  Error: Failed to add events.

Ah, OK, $params requires debuginfo. It this error message is not correct.
I'll send a fix soon.

Thanks!!

[PATCH perf/core] [BUGFIX] perf-probe: Fix to show correct error message for $vars and $params

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Fix to show correct error messages for $vars and $params because
those special variables requires debug information to find the
real variables or function parameters.

E.g. without this fix;
  ----
  # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.23.so getaddrinfo \$params
  Failed to write event: Invalid argument
  Please upgrade your kernel to at least 3.14 to have access to feature $params
    Error: Failed to add events.
  ----
Perf ends up with an error, but the message is not correct.
With this fix, perf shows correct error message as below.
  ----
  # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.23.so getaddrinfo \$params
  The /usr/lib64/libc-2.23.so file has no debug information.
  Rebuild with -g, or install an appropriate debuginfo package.
    Error: Failed to add events.

perf probe: Show all cached probes

perf probe --list shows all cached probes when --cache is given. Each
caches are shown with on which binary that probed. E.g.:

  -----
  # perf probe --cache vfs_read \$params
  # perf probe --cache -x /lib64/libc-2.17.so getaddrinfo \$params
  # perf probe --cache --list
  [kernel.kallsyms] (1466a0a250b5d0070c6d0f03c5fed30b237970a1):
  vfs_read $params
  /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so (c31ffe7942bfd77b2fca8f9bd5709d387a86d3bc):
  getaddrinfo $params
  -----

Note that $params requires debuginfo.

[PATCH perf/core v13 03/15] perf probe: Remove caches when --cache is given

[Masami Hiramatsu]

From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>

perf-probe --del removes caches when --cache is given.
Note that the delete pattern is not same as normal events.

If you cached probes with event name, --del "eventname"
works as expected. However, if you skipped it, the cached
probes doesn't have actual event name. In that case
 --del "probe-desc" is required (wildcard is acceptable).
For example a cache entry has the probe-desc "vfs_read $params",
you can remove it with --del 'vfs_read*'.

 Changes in v12:
  - Rename strlist__for_each to strlist__for_each_entry.
 Changes in v11:
  - Fix to check the result of purging cache entries.
  - Rename probe_cache__remove_entries to probe_cache__filter_purge.
 Changes in v9:
  - Fix to show which event is deleted (Thanks Hemant!)
 Changes in v4:
  - move del_perf_probe_caches() into builtin-probe.c since
    command-line related delete procedure is there now.

perf probe: Remove caches when --cache is given

'perf probe --del' removes caches when '--cache' is given.  Note that
the delete pattern is not the same as for normal events.

If you cached probes with event name, --del "eventname" works as
expected. However, if you skipped it, the cached probes doesn't have
actual event name. In that case --del "probe-desc" is required (wildcard
is acceptable).  For example a cache entry has the probe-desc "vfs_read
$params", you can remove it with --del 'vfs_read*'.

[PATCH perf/core v13 04/15] perf/sdt: ELF support for SDT

[Masami Hiramatsu]

From: Hemant Kumar <hemant@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This patch serves the initial support to identify and list SDT events in binaries.
When programs containing SDT markers are compiled, gcc with the help of assembler
directives identifies them and places them in the section ".note.stapsdt". To find
these markers from the binaries, one needs to traverse through this section and
parse the relevant details like the name, type and location of the marker. Also,
the original location could be skewed due to the effect of prelinking. If that is
the case, the locations need to be adjusted.

The functions in this patch open a given ELF, find out the SDT section, parse the
relevant details, adjust the location (if necessary) and populate them in a list.

A typical note entry in ".note.stapsdt" section is as follows :


                                 |--nhdr.n_namesz--|
                ------------------------------------
                |      nhdr      |     "stapsdt"   |
        -----   |----------------------------------|
         |      |  <location>       <base_address> |
         |      |  <semaphore>                     |
nhdr.n_descsize |  "provider_name"   "note_name"   |
         |      |   <args>                         |
        -----   |----------------------------------|
                |      nhdr      |     "stapsdt"   |
                |...

The above shows an excerpt from the section ".note.stapsdt".
'nhdr' is a structure which has the note name size (n_namesz), note
description size (n_desc_sz) and note type (n_type). So, in order to
parse the note note info, we need nhdr to tell us where to start from.
As can be seen from <sys/sdt.h>, the name of the SDT notes given is "stapsdt".
But this is not the identifier of the note.
After that, we go to description of the note to find out its location, the
address of the ".stapsdt.base" section and the semaphore address.
Then, we find the provider name and the SDT marker name and then follow the
arguments.

perf sdt: ELF support for SDT

This patch serves the initial support to identify and list SDT events in
binaries.  When programs containing SDT markers are compiled, gcc with
the help of assembler directives identifies them and places them in the
section ".note.stapsdt".

To find these markers from the binaries, one needs to traverse through
this section and parse the relevant details like the name, type and
location of the marker. Also, the original location could be skewed due
to the effect of prelinking. If that is the case, the locations need to
be adjusted.

The functions in this patch open a given ELF, find out the SDT section,
parse the relevant details, adjust the location (if necessary) and
populate them in a list.

A typical note entry in ".note.stapsdt" section is as follows :

                                 |--nhdr.n_namesz--|
                ------------------------------------
                |      nhdr      |     "stapsdt"   |
        -----   |----------------------------------|
         |      |  <location>       <base_address> |
         |      |  <semaphore>                     |
nhdr.n_descsize |  "provider_name"   "note_name"   |
         |      |   <args>                         |
        -----   |----------------------------------|
                |      nhdr      |     "stapsdt"   |
                |...

The above shows an excerpt from the section ".note.stapsdt".  'nhdr' is
a structure which has the note name size (n_namesz), note description
size (n_desc_sz) and note type (n_type).

So, in order to parse the note note info, we need nhdr to tell us where
to start from.  As can be seen from <sys/sdt.h>, the name of the SDT
notes given is "stapsdt".  But this is not the identifier of the note.

After that, we go to description of the note to find out its location, the
address of the ".stapsdt.base" section and the semaphore address.
Then, we find the provider name and the SDT marker name and then follow the
arguments.

[PATCH perf/core v13 05/15] perf probe: Add group name support

[Masami Hiramatsu]

From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>

Allow user to set group name for adding new event.
Note that user must ensure that the group name doesn't
conflict with existing group name carefully.
E.g. Existing group name can conflict with other events.
Especially, using the group name reserved for kernel
modules can hide kernel embedded events when loading
modules.

[PATCH perf/core v13 06/15] perf buildid-cache: Scan and import user SDT events to probe cache

[Masami Hiramatsu]

From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>

perf buildid-cache --add <binary> scans given binary and add
the SDT events to probe cache. "sdt_" prefix is appended for
all SDT providers to avoid event-name clash with other pre-defined
events. It is possible to use the cached SDT events as other cached
events, via perf probe --add "sdt_<provider>:<event>=<event>".

e.g.
  ----
  # perf buildid-cache --add /lib/libc-2.17.so
  # perf probe --cache --list | head -n 5
  /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so (a6fb821bdf53660eb2c29f778757aef294d3d392):
  sdt_libc:setjmp=setjmp
  sdt_libc:longjmp=longjmp
  sdt_libc:longjmp_target=longjmp_target
  sdt_libc:memory_heap_new=memory_heap_new
  # perf probe -x /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so \
    -a sdt_libc:memory_heap_new=memory_heap_new
  Added new event:
    sdt_libc:memory_heap_new (on memory_heap_new
   in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e sdt_libc:memory_heap_new -aR sleep 1

  # perf probe -l
    sdt_libc:memory_heap_new (on new_heap+183 in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)
  ----

Note that SDT event entries in probe-cache file is somewhat different
from normal cached events. Normal one starts with "#", but SDTs are
starting with "%".

 This command manages the build-id cache. It can add, remove, update and purge
 files to/from the cache. In the future it should as well set upper limits for
 the space used by the cache, etc.
+This also scans the target binary for SDT (Statically Defined Tracing) and

Why not remove the need for that build-cache --add? I.e. go straight to:

  perf probe -x /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so -a sdt_libc:memory_heap_new=memory_heap_new

And all the various steps above be done automagically?

It may well be interesting to have it available as separate steps, as above,
but requiring this cumbersome sequence to performed all the time when it seems
possible to do automatically seems user unfriendly.

I am tentatively applying this and testing.

Yes, I can add that.

Agreed. In 11/15 added a feature to search SDT without -x, but
usually uprobes requires -x, using -x is also natural.

Ah, this has been done :) Yes, you can do that already.

See commit dd975497ad ("perf probe: Introduce perf_cache interfaces")
which introduces probe cache and it automatically add the target
binary to the buildid-cache.

Thank you,

perf buildid-cache: Scan and import user SDT events to probe cache

perf buildid-cache --add <binary> scans given binary and add
the SDT events to probe cache. "sdt_" prefix is appended for
all SDT providers to avoid event-name clash with other pre-defined
events. It is possible to use the cached SDT events as other cached
events, via perf probe --add "sdt_<provider>:<event>=<event>".

e.g.
  ----
  # perf buildid-cache --add /lib/libc-2.17.so
  # perf probe --cache --list | head -n 5
  /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so (a6fb821bdf53660eb2c29f778757aef294d3d392):
  sdt_libc:setjmp=setjmp
  sdt_libc:longjmp=longjmp
  sdt_libc:longjmp_target=longjmp_target
  sdt_libc:memory_heap_new=memory_heap_new
  # perf probe -x /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so \
    -a sdt_libc:memory_heap_new=memory_heap_new
  Added new event:
    sdt_libc:memory_heap_new (on memory_heap_new
   in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e sdt_libc:memory_heap_new -aR sleep 1

  # perf probe -l
    sdt_libc:memory_heap_new (on new_heap+183 in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)
  ----

Note that SDT event entries in probe-cache file is somewhat different
from normal cached events. Normal one starts with "#", but SDTs are
starting with "%".

 This command manages the build-id cache. It can add, remove, update and purge
 files to/from the cache. In the future it should as well set upper limits for
 the space used by the cache, etc.
+This also scans the target binary for SDT (Statically Defined Tracing) and
+record it along with the buildid-cache, which will be used by perf-probe.
+For more details, see linkperf:perf-probe[1].

[PATCH perf/core v13 07/15] perf probe: Accept %sdt and %cached event name

[Masami Hiramatsu]

From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>

To improbe usability, support %[PROVIDER:]SDTEVENT format to
add new probes on SDT and cached events.

e.g.
  ----
  # perf probe -x /lib/libc-2.17.so  %lll_lock_wait_private
  Added new event:
    sdt_libc:lll_lock_wait_private (on %lll_lock_wait_private in
  /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e sdt_libc:lll_lock_wait_private -aR sleep 1

  # perf probe -l | more
    sdt_libc:lll_lock_wait_private (on __lll_lock_wait_private+21
   in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)
  ----

Note that this is not only for SDT events, but also normal
events with event-name.

e.g. define "myevent" on cache (-n doesn't add the real probe)
  ----
  # perf probe -x ./perf --cache -n --add 'myevent=dso__load $params'
  ----
  Reuse the "myevent" from cache as below.
  ----
  # perf probe -x ./perf %myevent
  ----

 Changes in v10:
  - Update Documentation/perf-probe.txt to add a link about SDT.
 Changes in v7:
  - Fix a bug to return an error if no SDT/cached events found in cache.

[PATCH perf/core v13 08/15] perf-probe: Make --list shows only available cached events

[Masami Hiramatsu]

From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>

Make "perf probe --cache --list" shows only available cached events
by checking build-id validity.

E.g. without this patch:
  ----
  $ ./perf probe --cache --add oldevent=cmd_probe
  $ make #(to update ./perf)
  $ ./perf probe --cache --add newevent=cmd_probe
  $ ./perf probe --cache --list
  /home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf/perf (061e90539bac69
  probe_perf:newevent=cmd_probe
  /home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf/perf (c2e44d614e33e1
  probe_perf:oldevent=cmd_probe
  ----
It shows both of old and new events but user can not use old one.
With this;
  ----
  $ ./perf probe --cache -l
  /home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf/perf (061e90539bac69
  probe_perf:newevent=cmd_probe
  ----
This show only new event which is on the existing binary.

 Changes in v13:
  - Instead of the perf-list, apply this change for perf-probe --list
    because of avoiding to confuse user.
 Changes in v7:
  - Validate build-id via sysfs if it is for kallsyms,
 Changes in v4:
  - Rename a parameter 'valid' to 'validonly' :)

[PATCH perf/core v13 10/15] perf probe: Allow wildcard for cached events

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Allo glob wildcard for reusing cached/SDT events. E.g.

  # perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.20.so -a %sdt_libc:\*

This example adds probes for all SDT in libc.
Note that the SDTs must have been scanned by perf buildid-cache.

 Changes in v12:
  - Rename strlist__for_each to strlist__for_each_entry.
 Changes in v10:
  - Split off bugfix, adding interface, and target search patches.
  - Do not export clear_probe_trace_events().
 Changes in v7:
  - Continue to search caches if a build-id cache has no probe cache.
  - Make probe_cache__open() to accept DSO__NAME_KALLSYMS for kernel.
  - Fix to add probes correctly when a wildcard matchs both of
    uprobes and kprobes.
 Changes in v5.1:
  - Fix a SEGV bug when a group name is omitted. (Thanks Hemant!)

[PATCH perf/core v13 11/15] perf probe: Search SDT/cached event from all probe caches

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Search SDT/cached event from all probe caches if user doesn't
pass any binary. With this, we don't have to specify target
binary for SDT and named cached events (which start with %).

E.g. without this, a target binary must be passed with -x.

 # perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.20.so -a %sdt_libc:\*

With this change, we don't need it anymore.

 # perf probe -a %sdt_libc:\*

 Changes in v12:
  - Rename strlist__for_each to strlist__for_each_entry.
 Changes from v10:
  - Splitted from "perf probe: Allow wildcard for cached events"

[PATCH perf/core v13 12/15] perf probe: Support @BUILDID or @FILE suffix for SDT events

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Support @BUILDID or @FILE suffix for SDT events. This allows
perf to add probes on SDTs/pre-cached events on given FILE
or the file which has given BUILDID (also, this complements
BUILDID.)
For example, both gcc and libstdc++ has same SDTs as below.
If you would like to add a probe on sdt_libstdcxx:catch on gcc,
you can do as below.

  ----
  # perf list sdt | tail -n 6
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch@/usr/bin/gcc(0cc207fc4b27)     [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch@/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.20(91c7a88fdf49)
    sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow@/usr/bin/gcc(0cc207fc4b27)   [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow@/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.20(91c7a88fdf49)
    sdt_libstdcxx:throw@/usr/bin/gcc(0cc207fc4b27)     [SDT event]
    sdt_libstdcxx:throw@/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.20(91c7a88fdf49)
  # perf probe -a %sdt_libstdcxx:catch@0cc
  Added new event:
    sdt_libstdcxx:catch  (on %catch in /usr/bin/gcc)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

  	perf record -e sdt_libstdcxx:catch -aR sleep 1

[PATCH perf/core v13 13/15] perf probe: Support a special SDT probe format

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Support a special SDT probe format which can omit the '%' prefix
only if the SDT group name starts with "sdt_". So, for example
both of "%sdt_libc:setjump" and "sdt_libc:setjump" are acceptable
for perf probe --add.

E.g. without this:
  ----
  # perf probe -a sdt_libc:setjmp
  Semantic error :There is non-digit char in line number.
  ...
  ----
With this:
  ----
  # perf probe -a sdt_libc:setjmp
  Added new event:
    sdt_libc:setjmp      (on %setjmp in /usr/lib64/libc-2.20.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

  	perf record -e sdt_libc:setjmp -aR sleep 1

[PATCH perf/core v13 14/15] perf build: Add sdt feature detection

[Masami Hiramatsu]

This checks whether sys/sdt.h is available or not,
which is required for DTRACE_PROBE().
We can disable this feature by passing NO_SDT=1 when
building.
This flag will be used for SDT test case and further
SDT events in perftools.

[PATCH perf/core v13 15/15] perf-test: Add a test case for SDT event

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Add a basic test case for SDT event support.
This test scans an SDT event in perftools and
check whether the SDT event is correctly stored
into the buildid cache.
Here is an example:
  ----
  $ perf test sdt -v
  47: Test SDT event probing                                   :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 20732
  Found 72 SDTs in /home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf/perf
  Writing cache: %sdt_perf:test_target=test_target
  Cache committed: 0
  symbol:test_target file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  Test SDT event probing: Ok

As a suggestion for next time, please keep the history here, inline,
i.e. the text for v11, v10, etc.
