perf trace: Avoid early exit due SIGCHLD from non-workload processes

2022-02-16T16:47:12Z

The function trace__symbols_init() runs "perf-read-vdso32" and that ends up with a SIGCHLD delivered to 'perf'. And this SIGCHLD make perf exit early. 'perf trace' should exit only if the SIGCHLD is from our workload process. So let's use sigaction() instead of signal() to match such condition. Committer notes: Use memset to zero the 'struct sigaction' variable as the '= { 0 }' method isn't accepted in many compiler versions, e.g.: 4 34.02 alpine:3.6 : FAIL clang version 4.0.0 (tags/RELEASE_400/final) builtin-trace.c:4897:35: error: suggest braces around initialization of subobject [-Werror,-Wmissing-braces] struct sigaction sigchld_act = { 0 }; ^ {} builtin-trace.c:4897:37: error: missing field 'sa_mask' initializer [-Werror,-Wmissing-field-initializers] struct sigaction sigchld_act = { 0 }; ^ 2 errors generated. 6 32.60 alpine:3.8 : FAIL gcc version 6.4.0 (Alpine 6.4.0) builtin-trace.c:4897:35: error: suggest braces around initialization of subobject [-Werror,-Wmissing-braces] struct sigaction sigchld_act = { 0 }; ^ {} builtin-trace.c:4897:37: error: missing field 'sa_mask' initializer [-Werror,-Wmissing-field-initializers] struct sigaction sigchld_act = { 0 }; ^ 2 errors generated. 7 34.82 alpine:3.9 : FAIL gcc version 8.3.0 (Alpine 8.3.0) builtin-trace.c:4897:35: error: suggest braces around initialization of subobject [-Werror,-Wmissing-braces] struct sigaction sigchld_act = { 0 }; ^ {} builtin-trace.c:4897:37: error: missing field 'sa_mask' initializer [-Werror,-Wmissing-field-initializers] struct sigaction sigchld_act = { 0 }; ^ 2 errors generated.

Pull perf tool updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: "New features: - Add 'trace' subcommand for 'perf ftrace', setting the stage for more 'perf ftrace' subcommands. Not using a subcommand yields the previous behaviour of 'perf ftrace'. - Add 'latency' subcommand to 'perf ftrace', that can use the function graph tracer or a BPF optimized one, via the -b/--use-bpf option. E.g.: $ sudo perf ftrace latency -a -T mutex_lock sleep 1 # DURATION | COUNT | GRAPH | 0 - 1 us | 4596 | ######################## | 1 - 2 us | 1680 | ######### | 2 - 4 us | 1106 | ##### | 4 - 8 us | 546 | ## | 8 - 16 us | 562 | ### | 16 - 32 us | 1 | | 32 - 64 us | 0 | | 64 - 128 us | 0 | | 128 - 256 us | 0 | | 256 - 512 us | 0 | | 512 - 1024 us | 0 | | 1 - 2 ms | 0 | | 2 - 4 ms | 0 | | 4 - 8 ms | 0 | | 8 - 16 ms | 0 | | 16 - 32 ms | 0 | | 32 - 64 ms | 0 | | 64 - 128 ms | 0 | | 128 - 256 ms | 0 | | 256 - 512 ms | 0 | | 512 - 1024 ms | 0 | | 1 - ... s | 0 | | The original implementation of this command was in the bcc tool. - Support --cputype option for hybrid events in 'perf stat'. Improvements: - Call chain improvements for ARM64. - No need to do any affinity setup when profiling pids. - Reduce multiplexing with duration_time in 'perf stat' metrics. - Improve error message for uncore events, stating that some event groups are can only be used in system wide (-a) mode. - perf stat metric group leader fixes/improvements, including arch specific changes to better support Intel topdown events. - Probe non-deprecated sysfs path first, i.e. try the path /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/topology/thread_siblings first, then the old /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/topology/core_cpus. - Disable debuginfod by default in 'perf record', to avoid stalls on distros such as Fedora 35. - Use unbuffered output in 'perf bench' when pipe/tee'ing to a file. - Enable ignore_missing_thread in 'perf trace' Fixes: - Avoid TUI crash when navigating in the annotation of recursive functions. - Fix hex dump character output in 'perf script'. - Fix JSON indentation to 4 spaces standard in the ARM vendor event files. - Fix use after free in metric__new(). - Fix IS_ERR_OR_NULL() usage in the perf BPF loader. - Fix up cross-arch register support, i.e. when printing register names take into account the architecture where the perf.data file was collected. - Fix SMT fallback with large core counts. - Don't lower case MetricExpr when parsing JSON files so as not to lose info such as the ":G" event modifier in metrics. perf test: - Add basic stress test for sigtrap handling to 'perf test'. - Fix 'perf test' failures on s/390 - Enable system wide for metricgroups test in 'perf test´. - Use 3 digits for test numbering now we can have more tests. Arch specific: - Add events for Arm Neoverse N2 in the ARM JSON vendor event files - Support PERF_MEM_LVLNUM encodings in powerpc, that came from a single patch series, where I incorrectly merged the kernel bits, that were then reverted after coordination with Michael Ellerman and Stephen Rothwell. - Add ARM SPE total latency as PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT. - Update AMD documentation, with info on raw event encoding. - Add support for global and local variants of the "p_stage_cyc" sort key, applicable to perf.data files collected on powerpc. - Remove duplicate and incorrect aux size checks in the ARM CoreSight ETM code. Refactorings: - Add a perf_cpu abstraction to disambiguate CPUs and CPU map indexes, fixing problems along the way. - Document CPU map methods. UAPI sync: - Update arch/x86/lib/mem{cpy,set}_64.S copies used in 'perf bench mem memcpy' - Sync UAPI files with the kernel sources: drm, msr-index, cpufeatures.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "New: - The Real Time Linux Analysis (RTLA) tool is added to the tools directory. - Can safely filter on user space pointers with: field.ustring ~ "match-string" - eprobes can now be filtered like any other event. - trace_marker(_raw) now uses stream_open() to allow multiple threads to safely write to it. Note, this could possibly break existing user space, but we will not know until we hear about it, and then can revert the change if need be. - New field in events to display when bottom halfs are disabled. - Sorting of the ftrace functions are now done at compile time instead of at bootup. Infrastructure changes to support future efforts: - Added __rel_loc type for trace events. Similar to __data_loc but the offset to the dynamic data is based off of the location of the descriptor and not the beginning of the event. Needed for user defined events. - Some simplification of event trigger code. - Make synthetic events process its callback better to not hinder other event callbacks that are registered.

perf trace: Avoid early exit due to running SIGCHLD handler before it makes sense to

2022-01-07T18:45:19Z

When running 'perf trace' with an BPF object like: # perf trace -e openat,tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.c the event parsing eventually calls llvm__get_kbuild_opts() that runs a script and that ends up with SIGCHLD delivered to the 'perf trace' handler, which assumes the workload process is done and quits 'perf trace'. Move the SIGCHLD handler setup directly to trace__run(), where the event is parsed and the object is already compiled.
