On each sample, Monitor Mode Control Register A (MMCRA) content is
saved in pt_regs. MMCRA does not have a entry as-is in the pt_regs but
instead, MMCRA content is saved in the "dsisr" register of pt_regs.
Patch adds another entry to the perf_regs structure to include the
"MMCRA" printing which internally maps to the "dsisr" of pt_regs.
It also check for the MMCRA availability in the platform and present
value accordingly
mpe: This was the 2nd patch in a series with commit 333804dc3b

Some kernels, like 4.19.13-300.fc29.x86_64 in fedora 29, fail with the
existing probe definition asking for the contents of result->name,
working when we ask for the 'filename' variable instead, so add a
fallback to that.
Now those tests are back working on fedora 29 systems with that kernel:
# perf test vfs_getname

66: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Ok
67: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Ok

The symbol__disassemble() function uses shell to launch objdump and
filter its output via grep. Passing filenames by interpolating them into
the command line via "%s" may lead to problems if said filenames contain
special characters.
Instead, pass the filename as a command line argument where it is not
subject to any kind of interpretation, then use quoted shell
interpolation to build the strings we need safely.

By calculating the removed loops, we can get the iteration count.
But the iteration count could be reported incorrectly, reporting
impossibly high counts.
That's because previous code uses the number of removed LBR entries for
the iteration count. That's not good. Fix this by increasing the
iteration count when a loop is detected.
When matching the chain, the iteration count would be added up, finally we need
to compute the average value when printing out.
For example,
$ perf report --branch-history --stdio --no-children
Before:
---f2 +0

2968 is an impossible high iteration count and avg_cycles is too small.

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.
It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.
A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.
This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.
There were a couple of notable cases:
- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.
- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)
- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout
but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.
I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

We hit a 'perf stat' issue by using following script:
#!/bin/bash
sleep 1000 &
exec perf stat -a -e cycles -I1000 -- sleep 5
Since "perf stat" is launched by exec, the "sleep 1000" would be the
child process of "perf stat". The wait4() call will not return because
it's waiting for the child process "sleep 1000" to end. So 'perf stat'
doesn't return even after 5s passes.
This patch lets 'perf stat' return when the specified child process ends
(in this case, the specified child process is "sleep 5").

# cat test.sh

exec perf stat -a -e cycles -I1000 -- sleep 5

Add a comment to perf_session__register_idle_thread() to bring attention to

perf creates a single 'struct thread' to represent the idle task. That
is because threads are identified by PID and TID, and the idle task
always has PID == TID == 0.
However, there are actually separate idle tasks for each CPU. That
creates a problem for thread stack processing which assumes that each
thread has a single stack, not one stack per CPU.
Fix that by passing through the CPU number, and in the case of the idle
"thread", pick the thread stack from an array based on the CPU number.

Joe suggested to have the coalesce default set just to 'iaddr', because
it's easier to read on the default 'perf c2c report' output.
By removing the "pid" field from the default -c/--coalesce option, the
'perf c2c' report will group all the relevant PIDs under the instruction
address ('iaddr') bucket. User can always run "-c pid,iaddr" for a more
fine grained output on particular PIDs.

This is a fix for another instance of the skid problem Milian recently
found [1]
The LBRs don't freeze at the exact same time as the PMI is triggered.
The perf script brstackinsn code that dumps LBR assembler assumes that
the last branch in the LBR leads to the sample point. But with skid
it's possible that the CPU executes one or more branches before the
sample, but which do not appear in the LBR.
What happens then is either that the sample point is before the last LBR
branch. In this case the dumper sees a negative length and ignores it.
Or it the sample point is long after the last branch. Then the dumper
sees a very long block and dumps it upto its block limit (16k bytes),
which is noise in the output.
On typical sample session this can happen regularly.
This patch tries to detect and handle the situation. On the last block
that is dumped by the LBR dumper we always stop on the first branch. If
the block length is negative just scan forward to the first branch.
Otherwise scan until a branch is found.
The PT decoder already has a function that uses the instruction decoder
to detect branches, so we can just reuse it here.
Then when a terminating branch is found print an indication and stop
dumping. This might miss a few instructions, but at least shows no
runaway blocks.

Ondřej reported that when compiled with python3, the python extension
regresses in evlist.get_pollfd function behaviour.
The evlist.get_pollfd function creates file objects from evlist's fds
and returns them in a list. The python3 version also sets them to 'close
the original descriptor' when the object dies (is closed), by passing
True via the 'closefd' arg in the PyFile_FromFd call.
The python's closefd doc says:
If closefd is False, the underlying file descriptor will be kept open
when the file is closed.
That's why the following line in python3 closes all evlist fds:
evlist.get_pollfd()
the returned list is immediately destroyed and that takes down the
original events fds.
Passing closefd as False to PyFile_FromFd to fix this.

We shouldn't hardcode the size of the tracepoint common_ fields, use the
offset of the 'id'/'__syscallnr' field in the sys_enter event instead.
This caused the augmented syscalls code to fail on a particular build of a
PREEMPT_RT_FULL kernel where these extra 'common_migrate_disable' and
'common_padding' fields were before the syscall id one:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/format

#
All those 'common_' prefixed fields are zeroed when they hit a BPF tracepoint
hook, we better just discard those, i.e. somehow pass an offset to the
BPF program from the start of the ctx and make adjustments in the 'perf trace'
handlers to adjust the offset of the syscall arg offsets obtained from tracefs.
Till then, fix it the quick way and add this to the augmented_raw_syscalls.c to
bet it to work in such kernels:

Current libbfd feature test unconditionally links against -liberty and -lz.
While it's required on some systems (e.g. opensuse), it's completely
unnecessary on the others, where only -lbdf is sufficient (debian).
This patch streamlines (and renames) the following feature checks:
feature-libbfd - only link against -lbfd (debian),
see commit 2cf9040714 ("perf tools: Fix bfd
dependency libraries detection")
feature-libbfd-liberty - link against -lbfd and -liberty
feature-libbfd-liberty-z - link against -lbfd, -liberty and -lz (opensuse),
see commit 280e7c48c3 ("perf tools: fix BFD
detection on opensuse")
(feature-liberty{,-z} were renamed to feature-libbfd-liberty{,z}
for clarity)
The main motivation is to fix this feature test for bpftool which is
currently broken on debian (libbfd feature shows OFF, but we still
unconditionally link against -lbfd and it works).
Tested on debian with only -lbfd installed (without -liberty); I'd
appreciate if somebody on the other systems can test this new detection
method.

While updating 'perf trace' on an machine with an old precompiled
augmented_raw_syscalls.o that didn't setup the syscall map the new 'perf
trace' codebase notices the augmented_raw_syscalls.o eBPF event, decides
to use it instead of the old raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} method, but
then because we don't have the syscall map tries to set the tracepoint
filter on the sys_{enter,exit} evsels, that are NULL, segfaulting.
Make the code more robust by checking it those tracepoints have
their respective evsels in place before trying to set the tp filter.
With this we still get everything to work, just not setting up the
syscall filters, which is better than a segfault. Now to update the
precompiled augmented_raw_syscalls.o and continue development :-)

On each sample, Sample Instruction Event Register (SIER) content
is saved in pt_regs. SIER does not have a entry as-is in the pt_regs
but instead, SIER content is saved in the "dar" register of pt_regs.
Patch adds another entry to the perf_regs structure to include the "SIER"
printing which internally maps to the "dar" of pt_regs.
It also check for the SIER availability in the platform and present
value accordingly

This actually so far, AFAIK is available only in x86, so the code was
put in place with x86 prefixes, in arches where it is not available it
will just not be called, so no further mechanisms are needed at this
time.
Later, when other arches wire this up, we'll just look at the uname
(live sessions) or perf_env data in the perf.data header to auto-wire
the right beautifier.
With this the output is the same as produced by 'strace' when used with
the following ~/.perfconfig:
# cat ~/.perfconfig
[llvm]
dump-obj = true
[trace]
add_events = /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
show_zeros = yes
show_duration = no
no_inherit = yes
show_timestamp = no
show_arg_names = no
args_alignment = -40
show_prefix = yes
#
And, on fedora 29, since the string tables are generated from the kernel
sources, we don't know about 0x3001, just like strace:
--- /tmp/strace 2018-12-17 11:22:08.707586721 -0300
+++ /tmp/trace 2018-12-18 11:11:32.037512729 -0300
@@ -1,49 +1,49 @@
-arch_prctl(0x3001 /* ARCH_??? */, 0x7ffc8a92dc80) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
+arch_prctl(0x3001 /* ARCH_??? */, 0x7ffe4eb93ae0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
-arch_prctl(ARCH_SET_FS, 0x7faf6700f540) = 0
+arch_prctl(ARCH_SET_FS, 0x7fb507364540) = 0
And that seems to be related to the CET/Shadow Stack feature, that
userland in Fedora 29 (glibc 2.28) are querying the kernel about, that
0x3001 seems to be ARCH_CET_STATUS, I'll check the situation and test
with a fedora 29 kernel to see if the other codes are used.
A diff that ignores the different pointers for different runs needs to
be put in place in the upcoming regression tests comparing 'perf trace's
output to strace's.
