Guilherme Cox found that:
There is, however, a potential bug if there is an item with code zero
that is not the first one in the symbol list, since eval_flag(..)
returns 0 when it doesn't find anything.
That is, if you have the following enums:
enum {
FOO_START = 0,
FOO_GO = 1,
FOO_END = 2
}
and then have:
__print_symbolic(foo, FOO_GO, "go", FOO_START, "start",
FOO_END, "end")
If none of the enums are known to pevent, then eval_flag() will return
zero, and it will match it to the first item in the list, which would be
FOO_GO, which is not zero.
Luckily, in most cases, the first element would be zero, and the parsing
would match out of sheer luck.

perf trace: Handle multiple threads better wrt syscalls being intermixed
Introduced a bug where it considered the number of bytes output directly
to the output file when formatting the syscall entry buffer that is
stored to be finally printed at syscall exit, ending up leaving garbage
at the start of syscalls that appeared while another syscall was being
processed, in another thread. Fix it.
Example of garbage in the output before this patch:

When a plugin option is defined, by default it is a boolean (true or false).
If the option is something else, then it needs to set its "value" field to
a default string other than NULL (can be just "").
If the value is not set then the option is considered boolean, and the
updating of the option value will be handled accordingly.

There is a pevent_data_comm_from_pid() that returns the cmdline stored for
a given pid in order for users to map pids to comms, but there's no method
to convert a comm back to a pid. This is useful for filters that specify
a comm instead of a PID (it's faster than searching each individual event).
Add a way to retrieve a comm from a pid. Since there can be more than one
pid associated to a comm, it returns a data structure that lets the user
iterate over all the saved comms for a given pid.

The pevent->trace_clock should not be a direct pointer to what was
given. It should be copied and freed.
Note, valgrind pointed this out when a caller passed in a pointer that
needed to be freed and it never was. Ideally, pevent should copy it
(which this change does), and free the copy. It's up to the caller to
free the clock string passed in.

Before, when some problem happened while trying to load the kernel
symtab, 'perf top' would show:
┌─Warning:───────────────────────────┐
│The vmlinux file can't be used. │
│Kernel samples will not be resolved.│
│ │
│ │
│Press any key... │
└────────────────────────────────────┘
Now, it reports:
# perf top --vmlinux /dev/null
┌─Warning:───────────────────────────────────────────┐
│The /tmp/passwd file can't be used: Invalid ELF file│
│Kernel samples will not be resolved. │
│ │
│ │
│Press any key... │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
This is possible because we now register the reason for not being able
to load the symtab in the dso->load_errno member, and provide a
dso__strerror_load() routine to format this error into a strerror like
string with a short reason for the error while loading.
That can be just forwarding the dso__strerror_load() call to
strerror_r(), or, for a separate errno range providing a custom message.

Fix to get correctly unmapped symbol address on kernel. This allows us
to probe on syscall symbols which are aliases of SyS_ functions with
using debuginfo.
Without this fix:
----
# ./perf probe -a sys_write
Failed to find debug information for address 3b0100
Probe point 'sys_write' not found.
Error: Failed to add events.
----
The address 0x3b0100 is a mapped address, and not usable
in debuginfo.
With this fix:
----
# ./perf probe -a sys_write
Added new event:
probe:sys_write (on sys_write)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:sys_write -aR sleep 1

Provides united way of parsing kernel module path
into several components.
The new kmod_path__parse function and few defines:
int __kmod_path__parse(struct kmod_path *m, const char *path,
bool alloc_name, bool alloc_ext);
#define kmod_path__parse(__m, __p) __kmod_path__parse(__m, __p, false, false)
#define kmod_path__parse_name(__m, __p) __kmod_path__parse(__m, __p, true , false)
#define kmod_path__parse_ext(__m, __p) __kmod_path__parse(__m, __p, false, true)
parse kernel module @path and updates @m argument like:
@comp - true if @path contains supported compression suffix,
false otherwise
@kmod - true if @path contains '.ko' suffix in right position,
false otherwise
@name - if (@alloc_name && @kmod) is true, it contains strdup-ed base name
of the kernel module without suffixes, otherwise strudup-ed
base name of @path
@ext - if (@alloc_ext && @comp) is true, it contains strdup-ed string
the compression suffix
It returns 0 if there's no strdup error, -ENOMEM otherwise.

Currently the code skips the first field with the expectation that it is 'nr'.
But older kernels do not have the 'nr' field:
field:int nr; offset:8; size:4; signed:1;
Change perf-trace to drop the field if it exists after parsing the format file.
This fixes the off-by-one problem with older kernels (e.g., RHEL6). e.g,
perf-trace shows this for write:
1.515 ( 0.006 ms): dd/4245 write(buf: 2</dev/pts/0>, count: 140733837536224 ) = 26
where 2 is really the fd, the huge number is really the buf address, etc. With
this patch you get the more appropriate:
1.813 ( 0.003 ms): dd/6330 write(fd: 2</dev/pts/0>, buf: 0x7fff22fc81f0, count: 25) = 25

Perf tries to find probe function addresses from map when debuginfo
could not be found.
To the first added function, the value of ref_reloc_sym was set in
maps__set_kallsyms_ref_reloc_sym() and can be obtained from
host_machine->kmaps->maps. After that, new maps are added to
host_machine->kmaps->maps in dso__load_kcore(), all these new added maps
do not have a valid ref_reloc_sym.
When adding a second function, get_target_map() may get a map without
valid ref_reloc_sym, and raise the error "Relocated base symbol is not
found".
Fix this by using kernel_get_ref_reloc_sym() to get ref_reloc_sym.
This problem can be reproduced as following:
$ perf probe --add='sys_write' --add='sys_open'
Relocated base symbol is not found!
Error: Failed to add events.
After this patch:
$ perf probe --add='sys_write' --add='sys_open'
Added new event:
probe:sys_write (on sys_write)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:sys_write -aR sleep 1
Added new event:
probe:sys_open (on sys_open)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
