perf tools: Remove HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT_TEP_FIELD_IS_RELATIVE

Switch HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT_TEP_FIELD_IS_RELATIVE to be a version number
test on libtraceevent being >= to version 1.5.0. This also corrects a
greater-than test to be greater-than-or-equal.

perf tools: Check if libtracevent has TEP_FIELD_IS_RELATIVE

Some distros have older versions of libtraceevent where
TEP_FIELD_IS_RELATIVE and its associated semantics are not present, so
we need to check if the version has it, it was introduced in
libtraceevent 1.5.0.

# 378ef0f5 05-Dec-2022 Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>

perf build: Use libtraceevent from the system

Remove the LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC and LIBTRACEFS_DYNAMIC make command
line variables.

If libtraceevent isn't installed or NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 is passed to the
build, don't compile in libtraceevent and libtracefs support.

This also disables CONFIG_TRACE that controls "perf trace".

CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT is used to control enablement in Build/Makefiles,
HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is used in C code.

Without HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT tracepoints are disabled and as such the
commands kmem, kwork, lock, sched and timechart are removed. The
majority of commands continue to work including "perf test".

Committer notes:

Fixed up a tools/perf/util/Build reject and added:

#include <traceevent/event-parse.h>

to tools/perf/util/scripting-engines/trace-event-perl.c.

Had to tweak tools/perf/util/setup.py to make sure the python binding
shared object links with libtraceevent if -DHAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is
present in CFLAGS.

Building with NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 uncovered some more build failures:

- Make building of data-convert-bt.c to CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y

- perf-$(CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT) += scripts/

- bpf_kwork.o needs also to be dependent on CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y

- The python binding needed some fixups and util/trace-event.c can't be
built and linked with the python binding shared object, so remove it
in tools/perf/util/setup.py and exclude it from the list of
dependencies in the python/perf.so Makefile.perf target.

Building without libtraceevent-devel installed uncovered more build
failures:

- The python binding tools/perf/util/python.c was assuming that
traceevent/parse-events.h was always available, which was the case
when we defaulted to using the in-kernel tools/lib/traceevent/ files,
now we need to enclose it under ifdef HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT, just like
the other parts of it that deal with tracepoints.

- We have to ifdef the rules in the Build files with
CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y to build builtin-trace.c and
tools/perf/trace/beauty/ as we only ifdef setting CONFIG_TRACE=y when
setting NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 in the make command line, not when we don't
detect libtraceevent-devel installed in the system. Simplification here
to avoid these two ways of disabling builtin-trace.c and not having
CONFIG_TRACE=y when libtraceevent-devel isn't installed is the clean
way.

From Athira:

<quote>
tools/perf/arch/powerpc/util/Build
-perf-y += kvm-stat.o
+perf-$(CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT) += kvm-stat.o
</quote>

Then, ditto for arm64 and s390, detected by container cross build tests.

- s/390 uses test__checkevent_tracepoint() that is now only available if
HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is defined, enclose the callsite with ifder HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT.

Also from Athira:

<quote>
With this change, I could successfully compile in these environment:
- Without libtraceevent-devel installed
- With libtraceevent-devel installed
- With “make NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1”
</quote>

Then, finally rename CONFIG_TRACEEVENT to CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT for
consistency with other libraries detected in tools/perf/.

tools/perf: Add '__rel_loc' event field parsing support

Add new '__rel_loc' dynamic data location attribute support.
This type attribute is similar to the '__data_loc' but records the
offset from the field itself.
The libtraceevent adds TEP_FIELD_IS_RELATIVE to the
'tep_format_field::flags' with TEP_FIELD_IS_DYNAMIC for'__rel_loc'.

# d0713d4c 26-Apr-2021 Nicholas Fraser <nfraser@codeweavers.com>

perf data: Add JSON export

This adds a feature to export perf data to JSON.

The resolved symbols are exported into the JSON so that external tools
don't need to load the dsos themselves (or even have access to them at
all.) This makes it easy to load and analyze perf data with standalone
tools where direct perf or libbabeltrace integration is impractical.

The exporter uses a minimal inline JSON encoding without any external
dependencies. Currently it only outputs some headers and sample metadata
but it's easily extensible.

Use it like this:

$ perf data convert --to-json out.json

Committer notes:

Fixup a __printf() bug that broke the build:

util/data-convert-json.c:103:11: error: expected ‘)’ before numeric constant
103 | __(printf, 5, 6)
| ^~
| )
util/data-convert-json.c: In function ‘output_sample_callchain_entry’:
util/data-convert-json.c:124:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘output_json_key_format’; did you mean ‘output_json_format’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
124 | output_json_key_format(out, false, 5, "ip", "\"0x%" PRIx64 "\"", ip);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
| output_json_format

Also had to add this patch to fix errors reported by various versions of
clang:

- if (al && al->sym && al->sym->name && strlen(al->sym->name) > 0) {
+ if (al && al->sym && al->sym->namelen) {

al->sym->name is a zero sized array, to avoid one extra alloc in the
symbol__new() constructor, sym->namelen carries its strlen.

perf data: Add support to store time of day in CTF data conversion

Adad support to convert and store time of day in CTF data conversion for
'perf data convert' subcommand.

The perf.data used for conversion needs to have clock data information -
must be recorded with -k/--clockid option).

New --tod option is added to 'perf data convert' subcommand to convert
data with timestamps converted to wall clock time.

Record data with clockid set:

# perf record -k CLOCK_MONOTONIC kill
kill: not enough arguments
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.033 MB perf.data (8 samples) ]

Convert data with TOD timestamps:

# perf data convert --tod --to-ctf ./ctf
[ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './ctf' ]
[ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 0.000 MB (8 samples) ]

Display data in perf script:

# perf script -F+tod --ns
perf 262150 2020-07-13 18:38:50.097678523 153633.958246159: 1 cycles: ...
perf 262150 2020-07-13 18:38:50.097682941 153633.958250577: 1 cycles: ...

...

Display data in babeltrace:

# babeltrace --clock-date ./ctf
[2020-07-13 18:38:50.097678523] (+?.?????????) cycles: { cpu_id = 0 }, { perf_ip = 0xFFF ...

...

It's available only for recording with clockid specified, because it's
the only case where we can get reference time to wallclock time. It's
can't do that with perf clock yet.

Error is display if you want to use --tod on data without clockid
specified:

# perf data convert --tod --to-ctf ./ctf
Can't provide --tod time, missing clock data. Please record with -k/--clockid option.
Failed to setup CTF writer.

perf session: Return error code for perf_session__new() function on failure

This patch is to return error code of perf_new_session function on
failure instead of NULL.

Test Results:

Before Fix:

$ perf c2c report -input
failed to open nput: No such file or directory

$ echo $?
0
$

After Fix:

$ perf c2c report -input
failed to open nput: No such file or directory

$ echo $?
254
$

Committer notes:

Fix 'perf tests topology' case, where we use that TEST_ASSERT_VAL(...,
session), i.e. we need to pass zero in case of failure, which was the
case before when NULL was returned by perf_session__new() for failure,
but now we need to negate the result of IS_ERR(session) to respect that
TEST_ASSERT_VAL) expectation of zero meaning failure.

libperf: Move perf_event_attr field from perf's evsel to libperf's perf_evsel

Move the perf_event_attr struct fron 'struct evsel' to 'struct perf_evsel'.

Committer notes:

tools/perf/arch/arm64/util/arm-spe.c
tools/perf/arch/s390/util/auxtrace.c

Also

cc1: warnings being treated as errors
tests/sample-parsing.c: In function 'do_test':
tests/sample-parsing.c:162: error: missing initializer
tests/sample-parsing.c:162: error: (near initialization for 'evsel.core.cpus')

struct evsel evsel = {
.needs_swap = false,
- .core.attr = {
- .sample_type = sample_type,
- .read_format = read_format,
+ .core = {
+ . attr = {
+ .sample_type = sample_type,
+ .read_format = read_format,
+ },

[perfbuilder@a70e4eeb5549 /]$ gcc --version |& head -1
gcc (GCC) 4.4.7

Also we don't need to include perf_event.h in
tools/perf/lib/include/perf/evsel.h, forward declaring 'struct
perf_event_attr' is enough. And this even fixes the build in some
systems where things are used somewhere down the include path from
perf_event.h without defining __always_inline.

perf tools: Use zfree() where applicable

In places where the equivalent was already being done, i.e.:

free(a);
a = NULL;

And in placs where struct members are being freed so that if we have
some erroneous reference to its struct, then accesses to freed members
will result in segfaults, which we can detect faster than use after free
to areas that may still have something seemingly valid.

tools perf: Move from sane_ctype.h obtained from git to the Linux's original

We got the sane_ctype.h headers from git and kept using it so far, but
since that code originally came from the kernel sources to the git
sources, perhaps its better to just use the one in the kernel, so that
we can leverage tools/perf/check_headers.sh to be notified when our copy
gets out of sync, i.e. when fixes or goodies are added to the code we've
copied.

This will help with things like tools/lib/string.c where we want to have
more things in common with the kernel, such as strim(), skip_spaces(),
etc so as to go on removing the things that we have in tools/perf/util/
and instead using the code in the kernel, indirectly and removing things
like EXPORT_SYMBOL(), etc, getting notified when fixes and improvements
are made to the original code.

Hopefully this also should help with reducing the difference of code
hosted in tools/ to the one in the kernel proper.

This scheme is useful/used in following patches where struct

perf_data_file::path holds the allocated path for specific files.

Also it actually makes the code little simpler.

This adds the mmap and mmap2 events to the CTF trace obtained from perf

These events will allow CTF trace visualization tools like Trace Compass

To include those events, one needs to convert with the --all option.

perf data: Add callchain to CTF conversion

The field perf_callchain, if available, is added to the sampling events
during the CTF conversion. It is an array of u64 values. The
perf_callchain_size field contains the size of the array.

It will allow the analysis of sampling data in trace visualization tools
like Trace Compass. Possible analyses with those data: dynamic
flamegraphs, correlation with other tracing data like a userspace trace.

Here follows a babeltrace CTF output of a trace with callchain:

perf tools: Add PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES to include namespaces related info

Introduce a new option to record PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES events emitted
by the kernel when fork, clone, setns or unshare are invoked. And update
perf-record documentation with the new option to record namespace
events.

Committer notes:

Combined it with a later patch to allow printing it via 'perf report -D'
and be able to test the feature introduced in this patch. Had to move
here also perf_ns__name(), that was introduced in another later patch.

Also used PRIu64 and PRIx64 to fix the build in some enfironments wrt:

'perf data convert' fails to convert perf.data with such string to CTF format.

}

perf data: Explicitly set byte order for integer types

After babeltrace commit 5cec03e402aa ("ir: copy variants and sequences
when setting a field path"), 'perf data convert' gets incorrect result
if there's bpf output data. For example:

# perf data convert --to-ctf ./out.ctf
# babeltrace ./out.ctf
[10:44:31.186045346] (+?.?????????) evt: { cpu_id = 0 }, { perf_ip = 0xFFFFFFFF810E7DD1, perf_tid = 23819, perf_pid = 23819, perf_id = 518, raw_len = 3, raw_data = [ [0] = 0xC028E32F, [1] = 0x815D0100, [2] = 0x1000000 ] }
[10:44:31.286101003] (+0.100055657) evt: { cpu_id = 0 }, { perf_ip = 0xFFFFFFFF8105B609, perf_tid = 23819, perf_pid = 23819, perf_id = 518, raw_len = 3, raw_data = [ [0] = 0x35D9F1EB, [1] = 0x15D81, [2] = 0x2 ] }

The expected result of the first sample should be:

raw_data = [ [0] = 0x2FE328C0, [1] = 0x15D81, [2] = 0x1 ] }

however, 'perf data convert' output big endian value to resuling CTF
file.

The reason is a internal change (or a bug?) of babeltrace.

Before this patch, at the first add_bpf_output_values(), byte order of
all integer type is uncertain (is 0, neither 1234 (le) nor 4321 (be)).
It would be fixed by:

perf_evlist__deliver_sample
-> process_sample_event
-> ctf_stream
...
->bt_ctf_trace_add_stream_class
->bt_ctf_field_type_structure_set_byte_order
->bt_ctf_field_type_integer_set_byte_order

during creating the stream.

However, the babeltrace commit mentioned above duplicates types in
sequence to prevent potential conflict in following call stack and link
the newly allocated type into the 'raw_data' sequence:

perf_evlist__deliver_sample
-> process_sample_event
-> ctf_stream
...
-> bt_ctf_trace_add_stream_class
-> bt_ctf_stream_class_resolve_types
...
-> bt_ctf_field_type_sequence_copy
->bt_ctf_field_type_integer_copy

This happens before byte order setting, so only the newly allocated
type is initialized, the byte order of original type perf choose to
create the first raw_data is still uncertain.

Byte order in CTF output is not related to byte order in perf.data.
Setting it to anything other than BT_CTF_BYTE_ORDER_NATIVE solves this
problem (only BT_CTF_BYTE_ORDER_NATIVE needs to be fixed). To reduce
behavior changing, set byte order according to compiling options.

perf data: Support converting data from bpf_perf_event_output()

bpf_perf_event_output() outputs data through sample->raw_data. This

Committer note:

Make sure you have python3-devel installed, not python-devel, which may
be for python2, which will lead to some "PyInstance_Type" errors. Also
make sure that you use the right libbabeltrace, because it is shipped
in Fedora, for instance, but an older version.

To build libbabeltrace's python binding one also needs to use:

./configure --enable-python-bindings

And then set PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/.

perf config: Bring perf_default_config to the very beginning at main()

Before this patch each subcommand calls perf_config() by themself,
reading the default configuration together with subcommand specific
options. If a subcommand doesn't have it own options, it needs to call
'perf_config(perf_default_config, NULL)' to ensure .perfconfig is
loaded.

This patch brings perf_config(perf_default_config, NULL) to the very
start of main(), so subcommands don't need to do it.

After this patch, 'llvm.clang-path' works for 'perf trace'.

# 5141d735 05-Feb-2016 Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com>

perf data: Fix releasing event_class

A new patch in libbabeltrace [1] reveals a object leak problem in
'perf data' CTF support: perf code never releases the event_class
which is allocated in add_event() and stored in evsel's private field.

If libbabeltrace has the above patch applied, leaking event_class
prevents the writer from being destroyed and flushing metadata. For
example:

$ perf record ls
perf.data
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.012 MB perf.data (12 samples) ]
$ perf data convert --to-ctf ./out.ctf
[ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './out.ctf' ]
[ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 0.000 MB (12 samples) ]
$ cat ./out.ctf/metadata
$ ls -l ./out.ctf/metadata
-rw-r----- 1 w00229757 mm 0 Jan 27 10:49 ./out.ctf/metadata

The correct result should be:
...
$ cat ./out.ctf/metadata
/* CTF 1.8 */

trace {
[SNIP]

$ ls -l ./out.ctf/metadata
-rw-r----- 1 w00229757 mm 2446 Jan 27 10:52 ./out.ctf/metadata

The full story is:

Patch [1] of babeltrace redesigns its reference counting scheme. In that
patch:

* writer <- trace (bt_ctf_writer_create)
* trace <- stream_class (bt_ctf_trace_add_stream_class)
* stream_class <- event_class (bt_ctf_stream_class_add_event_class)
('<-' means 'is a parent of')

Holding of event_class causes reference count of corresponding 'writer'
to increase through parent chain. Perf expects that 'writer' is released
(so metadata is flushed) through bt_ctf_writer_put() in
ctf_writer__cleanup(). However, since it never releases event_class, the
reference of 'writer' won't be dropped, so bt_ctf_writer_put() won't
lead to the release of writer.

Before this CTF patch, !(writer <- trace). Even with event_class leaking,
the writer ends up being released.

# d4ae4213 18-Apr-2015 Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com>

perf data: Fix signedness of value

When converting int values, perf first extractes it to a ulonglong, then
feeds it to babeltrace as a signed value.

For negative 32 bit values (for example, return values of failed
syscalls), the extracted data should be something like 0xfffffffe (-2).
It becomes a large int64 value.

Babeltrace denies to insert it with bt_ctf_field_signed_integer_set_value()
because it is larger than 0x7fffffff, the largest positive value a
32 bit int can be.

This patch introduces adjust_signedness(), which fills high bits of
ulonglong with 1 if the value is negative.

perf data: Fix duplicate field names and avoid reserved keywords

Some parameters of syscall tracepoints named as 'nr', 'event', etc.
When dealing with them, perf convert to ctf meets some problem:

1. If a parameter with name 'nr', it will duplicate syscall's
common field 'nr'. One such syscall is io_submit().

2. If a parameter with name 'event', it is denied to be inserted
because 'event' is a CTF spec keyword[1]. One such syscall is
epoll_ctl.

This patch appends '_dupl_X' suffix to avoid problem 1, prepend a '_'
prefix to avoid problem 2.

perf data: Switch to multiple cpu stream files

Currently we store the data into single data strea/file. The cpu if data
is stored within the event sample. The lttng puts the CPU number that
belongs to the event into the packet context instead into the event.

This patch makes sure that the trace produce by perf does look the same
way. We now use one stream per-CPU. Having it all in one stream
increased the total size of the resulting file. The test went from
416KiB (with perf_cpu event member) to 24MiB due to the required (and
pointless) flush. With the per-cpu streams the total size went up to
588KiB.

perf data: Add perf data to CTF conversion support

Adding 'perf data convert' to convert perf data file into different
format. This patch adds support for CTF format conversion.

To convert perf.data into CTF run:
$ perf data convert --to-ctf=./ctf-data/
[ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './ctf-data/' ]
[ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 11.268 MB (100230 samples) ]

The command will create CTF metadata out of perf.data file (or one
specified via -i option) and then convert all sample events into single
CTF stream.

Each sample_type bit is translated into separated CTF event field apart
from following exceptions:

PERF_SAMPLE_RAW - added in next patch
PERF_SAMPLE_READ - TODO
PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN - TODO
PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK - TODO
PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_USER - TODO
PERF_SAMPLE_STACK_USER - TODO

$ perf --debug=data-convert=2 data convert ...

The converted CTF data could be analyzed by CTF tools, like babletrace
or tracecompass [1].

The following members to the ctf-environment were decided to be added to
distinguish and specify perf CTF data:

- domain

It says "kernel" because it contains a kernel trace (not to be
confused with a user space like lttng-ust does)

- tracer_name

It says perf. This can be used to distinguish between lttng and perf
CTF based trace.

- version

The kernel version from stream. In addition to release, this is what
it looks like on a Debian kernel:

release = "3.14-1-amd64";
version = "3.14.0";
