<id>urn:sha1:6d18804b963b78dcd53851f11e9080408b3d85c2</id>
<content type='text'>
A common problem is confusing CPU map indices with the CPU, by wrapping
the CPU with a struct then this is avoided. This approach is similar to
atomic_t.

Committer notes:

To make it build with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 these files needed the
conversions to 'struct perf_cpu' usage:

  tools/perf/util/bpf_counter.c
  tools/perf/util/bpf_counter_cgroup.c
  tools/perf/util/bpf_ftrace.c

Also perf_env__get_cpu() was removed back in "perf cpumap: Switch
cpu_map__build_map to cpu function".

Additionally these needed to be fixed for the ARM builds to complete:

  tools/perf/arch/arm/util/cs-etm.c
  tools/perf/arch/arm64/util/pmu.c

<title>perf cs-etm: Remove duplicate and incorrect aux size checks</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7cc9680c4be7c1da7a3570711f01273b781b936b</id>
<content type='text'>
There are two checks, one is for size when running without admin, but
this one is covered by the driver and reported on in more detail here
(builtin-record.c):

  pr_err("Permission error mapping pages.\n"
         "Consider increasing "
         "/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb,\n"
         "or try again with a smaller value of -m/--mmap_pages.\n"
         "(current value: %u,%u)\n",

This had the effect of artificially limiting the aux buffer size to a
value smaller than what was allowed because perf_event_mlock_kb wasn't
taken into account.

The second is to check for a power of two, but this is covered here
(evlist.c):

  pr_info("rounding mmap pages size to %s (%lu pages)\n",
          buf, pages);

Relative path include works in the regular build due to -I paths but may
fail in other situations.

v2. Rebase. Comments on v1 were that we should handle include paths
    differently and it is agreed that can be a sensible refactor but
    beyond the scope of this change.

When ETE is present save the TRCDEVARCH register and set a new magic
number. It will be used to configure the decoder in a later commit.

Old versions of perf will not be able to open files with this new magic
number, but old files will still work with newer versions of perf.

<title>perf auxtrace arm: Support compat_auxtrace_mmap__{read_head|write_tail}</title>

<id>urn:sha1:474b3f2882b21180a23672a1f80b0591b2bed039</id>
<content type='text'>
When the tool runs with compat mode on Arm platform, the kernel is in
64-bit mode and user space is in 32-bit mode; the user space can use
instructions "ldrd" and "strd" for 64-bit value atomicity.

This patch adds compat_auxtrace_mmap__{read_head|write_tail} for arm
building, it uses "ldrd" and "strd" instructions to ensure accessing
atomicity for aux head and tail.  The file arch/arm/util/auxtrace.c is
built for arm and arm64 building, these two functions are not needed for
arm64, so check the compiler macro "__arm__" to only include them for
arm building.

<title>perf cs-etm: Remove callback cs_etm_find_snapshot()</title>
<updated>2021-07-01T19:14:36Z</updated>
<author>
<name>Leo Yan</name>
</author>
<published>2021-07-01T09:35:36Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=2f01c200d4405c4562e45e8bb4de44a5ce37b217'/>
<id>urn:sha1:2f01c200d4405c4562e45e8bb4de44a5ce37b217</id>
<content type='text'>
The callback cs_etm_find_snapshot() is invoked for snapshot mode, its
main purpose is to find the correct AUX trace data and returns "head"
and "old" (we can call "old" as "old head") to the caller, the caller
__auxtrace_mmap__read() uses these two pointers to decide the AUX trace
data size.

This patch removes cs_etm_find_snapshot() with below reasons:

- The first thing in cs_etm_find_snapshot() is to check if the head has
  wrapped around, if it is not, directly bails out.  The checking is
  pointless, this is because the "head" and "old" pointers both are
  monotonical increasing so they never wrap around.

- cs_etm_find_snapshot() adjusts the "head" and "old" pointers and
  assumes the AUX ring buffer is fully filled with the hardware trace
  data, so it always subtracts the difference "mm-&gt;len" from "head" to
  get "old".  Let's imagine the snapshot is taken in very short
  interval, the tracers only fill a small chunk of the trace data into
  the AUX ring buffer, in this case, it's wrongly to copy the whole the
  AUX ring buffer to perf file.

- As the "head" and "old" pointers are monotonically increased, the
  function __auxtrace_mmap__read() handles these two pointers properly.
  It calculates the reminders for these two pointers, and the size is
  clamped to be never more than "snapshot_size".  We can simply reply on
  the function __auxtrace_mmap__read() to calculate the correct result
  for data copying, it's not necessary to add Arm CoreSight specific
  callback.
