 * Support interrupted syscalls in 'trace'

 * Add an event duration column and filter in 'trace'.

12 years agox86/perf: Fix virtualization sanity check
Andre Przywara [Tue, 9 Oct 2012 15:38:35 +0000 (17:38 +0200)]
x86/perf: Fix virtualization sanity check

In check_hw_exists() we try to detect non-emulated MSR accesses
by writing an arbitrary value into one of the PMU registers
and check if it's value after a readout is still the same.
This algorithm silently assumes that the register does not contain
the magic value already, which is wrong in at least one situation.

Fix the algorithm to really do a read-modify-write cycle. This fixes
a warning under Xen under some circumstances on AMD family 10h CPUs.

The reasons in more details actually sound like a story from
Believe It or Not!:

First you need an AMD family 10h/12h CPU. These do not reset the
PERF_CTR registers on a reboot.
Now you boot bare metal Linux, which goes successfully through this
check, but leaves the magic value of 0xabcd in the register. You
don't use the performance counters, but do a reboot (warm reset).
Then you choose to boot Xen. The check will be triggered with a
recent Linux kernel as Dom0 again, trying to write 0xabcd into the
MSR. Xen silently drops the write (expected), but the subsequent read
will return the value in the register, which just happens to be the
expected magic value. Thus the test misleadingly succeeds, leaving
the kernel in the belief that the PMU is available. This will trigger
the following message:

12 years agoperf tools: do not flush maps on COMM for perf report
Luigi Semenzato [Tue, 21 Aug 2012 21:52:20 +0000 (14:52 -0700)]
perf tools: do not flush maps on COMM for perf report

This fixes a long-standing bug caused by the lack of separate COMM and EXEC
record types, which makes "perf report" lose track of symbols when a process
renames itself.

With this fix (suggested by Stephane Eranian), a COMM (rename) no longer
flushes the maps, which is the correct behavior.  An EXEC also no longer
flushes the maps, but this doesn't matter because as new mappings are created
(for the executable and the libraries) the old mappings are automatically
removed.  This is not by accident: the functionality is necessary because DLLs
can be explicitly loaded at any time with dlopen(), possibly on top of existing
text, so "perf report" handles correctly the clobbering of new mappings on top
of old ones.

An alternative patch (which I proposed earlier) would be to introduce a

MODSIGN: Move the magic string to the end of a module and eliminate the search

Emit the magic string that indicates a module has a signature after the
signature data instead of before it.  This allows module_sig_check() to
be made simpler and faster by the elimination of the search for the
magic string.  Instead we just need to do a single memcmp().

This works because at the end of the signature data there is the
fixed-length signature information block.  This block then falls
immediately prior to the magic number.

From the contents of the information block, it is trivial to calculate
the size of the signature data and thus the size of the actual module
data.
