perf probe: Do not show the skipped events

2020-06-20T08:23:25Z

commit f41ebe9defacddeae96a872a33f0f22ced0bfcef upstream. When a probe point is expanded to several places (like inlined) and if some of them are skipped because of blacklisted or __init function, those trace_events has no event name. It must be skipped while showing results. Without this fix, you can see "(null):(null)" on the list, # ./perf probe request_resource reserve_setup is out of .text, skip it. Added new events: (null):(null) (on request_resource) probe:request_resource (on request_resource) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:request_resource -aR sleep 1 # With this fix, it is ignored: # ./perf probe request_resource reserve_setup is out of .text, skip it. Added new events: probe:request_resource (on request_resource) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:request_resource -aR sleep 1 # Fixes: 5a51fcd1f30c ("perf probe: Skip kernel symbols which is out of .text") Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/158763968263.30755.12800484151476026340.stgit@devnote2 Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

perf probe: Avoid calling freeing routine multiple times for same pointer

2019-08-25T08:52:49Z

[ Upstream commit d95daf5accf4a72005daa13fbb1d1bd8709f2861 ] When perf_add_probe_events() we call cleanup_perf_probe_events() for the pev pointer it receives, then, as part of handling this failure the main 'perf probe' goes on and calls cleanup_params() and that will again call cleanup_perf_probe_events()for the same pointer, so just set nevents to zero when handling the failure of perf_add_probe_events() to avoid the double free.

perf probe: Return errno when not hitting any event

2018-03-22T08:23:20Z

[ Upstream commit 70946723eeb859466f026274b29c6196e39149c4 ] On old perf, when using 'perf probe -d' to delete an inexistent event, it returns errno, eg, -bash-4.3# perf probe -d xxx || echo $? Info: Event "*:xxx" does not exist. Error: Failed to delete events. 255 But now perf_del_probe_events() will always set ret = 0, different from previous del_perf_probe_events(). After this, it returns errno again, eg, -bash-4.3# ./perf probe -d xxx || echo $? "xxx" does not hit any event. Error: Failed to delete events. 254 And it is more appropriate to return -ENOENT instead of -EPERM.

perf tools: Introduce usage_with_options_msg()

2015-10-27T12:28:44Z

Now usage_with_options() setup a pager before printing message so normal printf() or pr_err() will not be shown. The usage_with_options_msg() can be used to print some help message before usage strings.

perf probe: Allow probing on kmodules without dwarf

2015-10-02T18:59:23Z

Allow probing on kernel modules when 'perf' is built without debuginfo support. Currently perf-probe --module requires linking with libdw, but this doesn't make sense. E.g. ---- # make NO_DWARF=1 # ./perf probe -m pcspkr pcspkr_event%return Error: unknown switch `m' ---- With this patch ---- # ./perf probe -m pcspkr pcspkr_event%return Added new event: probe:pcspkr_event (on pcspkr_event%return in pcspkr) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:pcspkr_event -aR sleep 1 ---- Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20151002125832.18617.78721.stgit@localhost.localdomain Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf probe: Fix a segfault when removing uprobe events

2015-09-21T21:01:17Z

Fix a segfault bug and a small mistake in perf probe -d. Since the "ulist" in perf_del_probe_events is never initialized, strlist__add(ulist, *) always causes a segfault when removing uprobe events by perf probe -d. Also, the "str" local variable is never released if fail to allocate the "klist". This fixes it too. This has been introduced by the commit e607f1426b58 ("perf probe: Print deleted events in cmd_probe()").

perf probe: Export init/exit_probe_symbol_maps()

2015-09-15T12:48:32Z

The init/exit_symbols_maps() functions are to setup and cleanup necessary info for probe events. But they need to be called from out of the probe code now, so this patch exports them. However the names are too generic, so change them to have 'probe'. :) Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1441852026-28974-2-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf probe: Print deleted events in cmd_probe()

2015-09-04T15:43:44Z

Showing actual trace event when deleteing perf events is only needed in perf probe command. But the add functionality itself can be used by other places. So move the printing code into the cmd_probe(). The output is not changed.

perf probe: Move print logic into cmd_probe()

2015-09-04T15:37:17Z

Showing actual trace event when adding perf events is only needed in perf probe command. But the add functionality itself can be used by other places. So move the printing code into the cmd_probe(). Also it combines the output if more than one event is added. Before: $ sudo perf probe -a do_fork -a do_exit Added new event: probe:do_fork (on do_fork) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:do_fork -aR sleep 1 Added new events: probe:do_exit (on do_exit) probe:do_exit_1 (on do_exit) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:do_exit_1 -aR sleep 1 After: $ sudo perf probe -a do_fork -a do_exit Added new events: probe:do_fork (on do_fork) probe:do_exit (on do_exit) probe:do_exit_1 (on do_exit) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:do_exit_1 -aR sleep 1 Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Wang Nan Cc: pi3orama@163.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1441368963-11565-3-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
