We have some infrastructure to use perl or python to analyze logs
generated by perf. Prior to this patch, only the python tools had
access to backtrace information. This patch makes this information
available to perl scripts as well. Example:
Let's look at malloc() calls made by the seq utility. First we
create a probe point:
$ perf probe -x /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 malloc
Added new events:
...
Now we run seq, while monitoring malloc() calls with perf
$ perf record --call-graph=dwarf -e probe_libc:malloc seq 5
1
2
3
4
5
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.064 MB perf.data (6 samples) ]
We can use perf to look at its log to see the malloc calls and the backtrace
$ perf script
seq 14195 [000] 1927993.748254: probe_libc:malloc: (7f9ff8edd320) bytes=0x22
7f9ff8edd320 malloc (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so)
7f9ff8e8eab0 set_binding_values.part.0 (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so)
7f9ff8e8eda1 __bindtextdomain (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so)
401b22 main (/usr/bin/seq)
7f9ff8e82610 __libc_start_main (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.22.so)
402799 _start (/usr/bin/seq)
...
We can also use the scripting facilities. We create a skeleton perl
script that simply prints out the events
$ perf script -g perl
generated Perl script: perf-script.pl
We can then use this script to see the malloc() calls with a
backtrace. Prior to this patch, the backtrace was not available to
the perl scripts.
$ perf script -s perf-script.pl
probe_libc::malloc 0 1927993.748254260 14195 seq __probe_ip=140325052863264, bytes=34

After collecting samples for events 'syscalls:', perf-script with python
script doesn't occasionally work generating a segmentation fault.
The reason is that the print fmt is empty and a value of
event->print_fmt.args is NULL, so dereferencing the null pointer results
in a segmentation fault i.e.:
# perf record -e syscalls:*
# perf script -g python
# perf script -s perf-script.py
in trace_begin
syscalls__sys_enter_brk 3 79841.832099154 3777 test.sh syscall_nr=12, brk=0
... (omitted) ...
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
For example, a format of sys_enter_getuid() hasn't
print fmt as below.
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_getuid/format
name: sys_enter_getuid
ID: 188
format:
field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0;
field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1;
field:int syscall_nr; offset:8; size:4; signed:1;
print fmt: ""
So add exception handling to avoid this problem.

Coming in v3.16, trace events will be able to save bitmasks in raw
format in the ring buffer and output it with the __get_bitmask() macro.
In order for userspace tools to parse this, it must be able to handle
the __get_bitmask() call and be able to convert the data that's in
the ring buffer into a nice bitmask format. The output is similar to
what the kernel uses to print bitmasks, with a comma separator every
4 bytes (8 characters).
This allows for cpumasks to also be saved efficiently.
The first user is the thermal:thermal_power_limit event which has the
following output:
thermal_power_limit: cpus=0000000f freq=1900000 cdev_state=0 power=5252

it should have in it the machine where the thread was found.
Thus all functions that receive an addr_location now don't need to also
receive a 'machine', those functions just need to access al->machine
instead, just like it does with the other parts of an address location:
al->thread, al->map, etc.

The reason is that the 'pevent' field was added to
perf_scripting_context but it wasn't hooked up with an actual pevent in
either case, so when one of the 'common' fields is accessed (in

perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking
unused variables. The variable __used is defined to
__attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to
__attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is
also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning:
'__used__' attribute ignored
__unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition.
If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to
conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name
in its headers.
The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the
kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one
definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the
same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android.
This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with
__maybe_unused.

Both perl and python script start processing events other than trace
points, and it's useful to pass the resolved symbol and the dso info to
the event handler in script for better analysis and statistics.
Struct thread is already a member of struct addr_location, using
addr_location will keep the thread info, while providing additional
symbol and dso info if exist, so that the script itself doesn't need to
bother to do the symbol resolving and dso searching work.

We already lookup the associated event_format when reading the perf.data
header, so that we can cache the tracepoint name in evsel->name, so do
it a little further and save the event_format itself, so that we can
avoid relookups in tools that need to access it.
Change the tools to take the most obvious advantage, when they were
using pevent_find_event directly. More work is needed for further
removing the need of a pointer to pevent, such as when asking for event
field values ("common_pid" and the other common fields and per
event_format fields).
This is something that was planned but only got actually done when
Andrey Wagin needed to do this lookup at perf_tool->sample() time, when
we don't have access to pevent (session->pevent) to use with
pevent_find_event().

The pevent thing is per perf.data file, so I made it stop being static
and become a perf_session member, so tools processing perf.data files
use perf_session and _there_ we read the trace events description into
session->pevent and then change everywhere to stop using that single
global pevent variable and use the per session one.
Note that it _doesn't_ fall backs to trace__event_id, as we're not
interested at all in what is present in the
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events in the workstation doing the analysis,
just in what is in the perf.data file.
This patch also introduces perf_session__set_tracepoints_handlers that
is the perf perf.data/session way to associate handlers to tracepoint
events by resolving their IDs using the events descriptions stored in a
perf.data file. Make 'perf sched' use it.

Handle the print argument types brought by the new libparsevent in perl
scripting engine.
PRINT_BSTRING and PRINT_DYNAMIC_ARRAY are treated just like strings
and thus don't require specific processing.
But PRINT_FUNC need specific plugins which are not yet handled, lets
warn if we meet this case.
This fixes:

The current perf scripting facility only supports tracepoints. This
patch implements a generic perl handler to support other events than
tracepoints too.
This patch introduces a function process_event() that is called by perf
for each sample. The function is called with byte streams as arguments
containing information about the event, its attributes, the sample and
raw data. Perl's unpack() function can easily be used for byte decoding.
The following is the default implementation for process_event() that can
also be generated with perf script:
# Packed byte string args of process_event():
#
# $event: union perf_event util/event.h
# $attr: struct perf_event_attr linux/perf_event.h
# $sample: struct perf_sample util/event.h
# $raw_data: perf_sample->raw_data util/event.h
sub process_event
{
my ($event, $attr, $sample, $raw_data) = @_;
my @event = unpack("LSS", $event);
my @attr = unpack("LLQQQQQLLQQ", $attr);
my @sample = unpack("QLLQQQQQLL", $sample);
my @raw_data = unpack("C*", $raw_data);
use Data::Dumper;
print Dumper \@event, \@attr, \@sample, \@raw_data;
}

Reducing the exposure of perf_session further, so that we can use the
classes in cases where no perf.data file is created.

Resolving the sample->id to an evsel since the most advanced tools,
report and annotate, and the others will too when they evolve to
properly support multi-event perf.data files.
Good also because it does an extra validation, checking that the ID is
valid when present. When that is not the case, the overhead is just a
branch + function call (perf_evlist__id2evsel).

Free the perf trace name space and rename the trace to 'script' which is a
better match for the scripting engine.

Only print the script start/stop messages in verbose mode - users
normally don't care and it just clutters up the output.
