Pull perf tools fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: - Fix addresses for bss symbols, describing variables used in resolving data access in tools such as 'perf c2c' and 'perf mem'. - Skip symbols if SHF_ALLOC flag is not set, a technique used for listing deprecated symbols, its addresses are zeros, so not useful. - Remove undefined behavior from bpf_perf_object__next() when dealing with an empty bpf_objects_list list. - Make a ARM CoreSight disasm script work with both python2 and python3. - Sync x86's cpufeatures header with with the kernel sources. * tag 'perf-tools-fixes-for-v5.19-2022-07-29' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux: perf bpf: Remove undefined behavior from bpf_perf_object__next() perf symbol: Skip symbols if SHF_ALLOC flag is not set perf symbol: Correct address for bss symbols perf scripts python: Let script to be python2 compliant tools headers cpufeatures: Sync with the kernel sources

perf bpf: Remove undefined behavior from bpf_perf_object__next()

2022-07-27T14:19:39Z

bpf_perf_object__next() folded the last element in the list test with the empty list test. However, this meant that offsets were computed against null and that a struct list_head was compared against a 'struct bpf_perf_object'. Working around this with clang's undefined behavior sanitizer required -fno-sanitize=null and -fno-sanitize=object-size. Remove the undefined behavior by using the regular Linux list APIs and handling the starting case separately from the end testing case. Looking at uses like bpf_perf_object__for_each(), as the constant NULL or non-NULL argument can be constant propagated, the code is no less efficient.

perf symbol: Skip symbols if SHF_ALLOC flag is not set

2022-07-27T14:17:50Z

Some symbols are observed with the 'st_value' field zeroed. E.g. libc.so.6 in Ubuntu contains a symbol '__evoke_link_warning_getwd' which resides in the '.gnu.warning.getwd' section. Unlike normal sections, such kind of sections are used for linker warning when a file calls deprecated functions, but they are not part of memory images, the symbols in these sections should be dropped. This patch checks the section attribute SHF_ALLOC bit, if the bit is not set, it skips symbols to avoid spurious ones.

perf symbol: Correct address for bss symbols

2022-07-27T14:17:50Z

When using 'perf mem' and 'perf c2c', an issue is observed that tool reports the wrong offset for global data symbols. This is a common issue on both x86 and Arm64 platforms. Let's see an example, for a test program, below is the disassembly for its .bss section which is dumped with objdump: ... Disassembly of section .bss: 0000000000004040 : ... 0000000000004080 : ... 00000000000040c0 : ... 0000000000004100 : ... First we used 'perf mem record' to run the test program and then used 'perf --debug verbose=4 mem report' to observe what's the symbol info for 'buf1' and 'buf2' structures. # ./perf mem record -e ldlat-loads,ldlat-stores -- false_sharing.exe 8 # ./perf --debug verbose=4 mem report ... dso__load_sym_internal: adjusting symbol: st_value: 0x40c0 sh_addr: 0x4040 sh_offset: 0x3028 symbol__new: buf2 0x30a8-0x30e8 ... dso__load_sym_internal: adjusting symbol: st_value: 0x4080 sh_addr: 0x4040 sh_offset: 0x3028 symbol__new: buf1 0x3068-0x30a8 ... The perf tool relies on libelf to parse symbols, in executable and shared object files, 'st_value' holds a virtual address; 'sh_addr' is the address at which section's first byte should reside in memory, and 'sh_offset' is the byte offset from the beginning of the file to the first byte in the section. The perf tool uses below formula to convert a symbol's memory address to a file address: file_address = st_value - sh_addr + sh_offset ^ ` Memory address We can see the final adjusted address ranges for buf1 and buf2 are [0x30a8-0x30e8) and [0x3068-0x30a8) respectively, apparently this is incorrect, in the code, the structure for 'buf1' and 'buf2' specifies compiler attribute with 64-byte alignment. The problem happens for 'sh_offset', libelf returns it as 0x3028 which is not 64-byte aligned, combining with disassembly, it's likely libelf doesn't respect the alignment for .bss section, therefore, it doesn't return the aligned value for 'sh_offset'. Suggested by Fangrui Song, ELF file contains program header which contains PT_LOAD segments, the fields p_vaddr and p_offset in PT_LOAD segments contain the execution info. A better choice for converting memory address to file address is using the formula: file_address = st_value - p_vaddr + p_offset This patch introduces elf_read_program_header() which returns the program header based on the passed 'st_value', then it uses the formula above to calculate the symbol file address; and the debugging log is updated respectively. After applying the change: # ./perf --debug verbose=4 mem report ... dso__load_sym_internal: adjusting symbol: st_value: 0x40c0 p_vaddr: 0x3d28 p_offset: 0x2d28 symbol__new: buf2 0x30c0-0x3100 ... dso__load_sym_internal: adjusting symbol: st_value: 0x4080 p_vaddr: 0x3d28 p_offset: 0x2d28 symbol__new: buf1 0x3080-0x30c0 ...

perf scripts python: Let script to be python2 compliant

2022-07-27T14:17:50Z

The mainline kernel can be used for relative old distros, e.g. RHEL 7. The distro doesn't upgrade from python2 to python3, this causes the building error that the python script is not python2 compliant. To fix the building failure, this patch changes from the python f-string format to traditional string format.
