Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf 2019-11-02 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree. We've added 6 non-merge commits during the last 6 day(s) which contain a total of 8 files changed, 35 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-). The main changes are: 1) Fix ppc BPF JIT's tail call implementation by performing a second pass to gather a stable JIT context before opcode emission, from Eric Dumazet. 2) Fix build of BPF samples sys_perf_event_open() usage to compiled out unavailable test_attr__{enabled,open} checks. Also fix potential overflows in bpf_map_{area_alloc,charge_init} on 32 bit archs, from Björn Töpel. 3) Fix narrow loads of bpf_sysctl context fields with offset > 0 on big endian archs like s390x and also improve the test coverage, from Ilya Leoshkevich. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

perf tools: Fix time sorting

2019-11-05T11:49:14Z

The final sort might get confused when the comparison is done over bigger numbers than int like for -s time. Check the following report for longer workloads: $ perf report -s time -F time,overhead --stdio Fix hist_entry__sort() to properly return int64_t and not possible cut int.

perf tools: Remove unused trace_find_next_event()

2019-11-05T11:39:27Z

trace_find_next_event() was buggy and pretty much a useless helper. As there are no more users, just remove it.

perf scripting engines: Iterate on tep event arrays directly

2019-11-05T11:39:26Z

Instead of calling a useless (and broken) helper function to get the next event of a tep event array, just get the array directly and iterate over it. Note, the broken part was from trace_find_next_event() which after this will no longer be used, and can be removed. Committer notes: This fixes a segfault when generating python scripts from perf.data files with multiple tracepoint events, i.e. the following use case is fixed by this patch: # perf record -e sched:* sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 31 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.031 MB perf.data (9 samples) ] # perf script -g python Segmentation fault (core dumped) # Reported-by: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Andrew Morton Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Tzvetomir Stoyanov Cc: linux-trace-devel@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20191017153733.630cd5eb@gandalf.local.home Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191017210636.061448713@goodmis.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Make usage of test_attr__* optional for perf-sys.h

2019-10-31T20:38:41Z

For users of perf-sys.h outside perf, e.g. samples/bpf/bpf_load.c, it's convenient not to depend on test_attr__*. After commit 91854f9a077e ("perf tools: Move everything related to sys_perf_event_open() to perf-sys.h"), all users of perf-sys.h will depend on test_attr__enabled and test_attr__open. This commit enables a user to define HAVE_ATTR_TEST to zero in order to omit the test dependency.

perf kmem: Fix memory leak in compact_gfp_flags()

The memory @orig_flags is allocated by strdup(), it is freed on the normal path, but leak to free on the error path. Fix this by adding free(orig_flags) on the error path.

perf tools: Fix mode setting in copyfile_mode_ns()

2019-10-15T15:05:18Z

slow_copyfile() opens the file by name, so "write" permissions must not be removed in copyfile_mode_ns() before calling slow_copyfile(). Example: Before: $ sudo chmod +r /proc/kcore $ sudo setcap "cap_sys_admin,cap_sys_ptrace,cap_syslog,cap_sys_rawio=ep" tools/perf/perf $ tools/perf/perf buildid-cache -k /proc/kcore Couldn't add /proc/kcore After: $ sudo chmod +r /proc/kcore $ sudo setcap "cap_sys_admin,cap_sys_ptrace,cap_syslog,cap_sys_rawio=ep" tools/perf/perf $ tools/perf/perf buildid-cache -v -k /proc/kcore kcore added to build-id cache directory /home/ahunter/.debug/[kernel.kcore]/37e340b1b5a7cf4f57ba8de2bc777359588a957f/2019100709562289 Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter Acked-by: Jiri Olsa Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191007070221.11158-1-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
