Test results:
The first ones are container based builds of tools/perf with and without libelf support. Where clang is available, it is also used to build perf with/without libelf, and building with LIBCLANGLLVM=1 (built-in clang) with gcc and clang when clang and its devel libraries are installed.
The objtool and samples/bpf/ builds are disabled now that I'm switching from using the sources in a local volume to fetching them from a http server to build it inside the container, to make it easier to build in a container cluster. Those will come back later.
Several are cross builds, the ones with -x-ARCH and the android one, and those may not have all the features built, due to lack of multi-arch devel packages, available and being used so far on just a few, like debian:experimental-x-{arm64,mipsel}.
The 'perf test' one will perform a variety of tests exercising tools/perf/util/, tools/lib/{bpf,traceevent,etc}, as well as run perf commands with a variety of command line event specifications to then intercept the sys_perf_event syscall to check that the perf_event_attr fields are set up as expected, among a variety of other unit tests.
Then there is the 'make -C tools/perf build-test' ones, that build tools/perf/ with a variety of feature sets, exercising the build with an incomplete set of features as well as with a complete one. It is planned to have it run on each of the containers mentioned above, using some container orchestration infrastructure. Get in contact if interested in helping having this in place.
Clearlinux is failing when building with libpython, but that is not a perf regression, will try to remove one compiler warning that is causing the problem when building some of the glue code files in the python files, outside perf.

maintainerPATCH 2/11 perf evlist: Fix fix for freed id arrays
In reply to Arnaldo Carvalho de MeloFrom: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>
In the earlier fix for the memory overrun of id arrays I managed to typo the wrong event in the fix.
Of course we need to close the current event in the loop, not the original failing event.
The same test case as in the original patch still passes.

Fix this by calling closedir() before function returns.

slow_copyfile() opens the file by name, so "write" permissions must not be removed in copyfile_mode_ns() before calling slow_copyfile().

Pulled, thanks a lot Arnaldo!
A minor bugreport:
There's a new nuisance message that I noticed when 'perf top' is started:
a "vmlinux file has not been found" - with a "press any key" - but the message doesn't actually wait for the keypress, it's cleared on the first screen refresh...
I'd argue that both the keypress action and the warning message is superfluous:
- It annoys users while not actually giving any straightforward way to fix it. It's displayed on every startup of perf top, which is highly distracting.
- At least on Ubuntu it appears to be wrong, because the vmlinux is available and symbol resolution/annotation appears to be working fine:
# uname -a Linux dagon 5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Oct 20 15:28:00 CEST 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Note that the 'dbg' package is installed which includes the vmlinux, and perf does seem to find it:
# dpkg-query -L linux-image-5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0-dbg | grep vmlinux$ /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0/vmlinux
I can see annotated kernel functions just fine.
- Finally, when I run perf as root then kallsyms and /proc/kcore is used to annotate the kernel. So the 'cannot resolve' message cannot even be true. :-)
Instead I believe some sort of explanation should be printed in the natural flow when there's an unknown symbol or someone tries to enter a kernel symbol that cannot be further resolved. Even there it probably shouldn't be a 'warning' message, but something printed in-line where usually we'd see the annotated output - to disrupt the normal workflow as little as possible.
Secondly, there also appears to be a TUI weirdness when the annotated kernel functions are small (or weird): the blue cursor is stuck at the top and I cannot move between the annotated instructions with the down/up arrow:
Samples: 13M of event 'cycles', 4000 Hz, Event count (approx.): 1272420588851 clear_page_rep /usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0 [Percent: local period]

0.01 │ xor %eax,%eax ▒
│ rep stosq ▒
99.27 │ rep stos %rax,%es:(%rdi) ▒
│ ret ▒
0.71 │ ← retq I can still exit the screen with 'q', and can move around in larger annotated kernel functions. Not sure whether it's related to function size, or perhaps to the 'hottest' instruction that the cursor is normally placed at.
Thanks,
Ingo

- It annoys users while not actually giving any straightforward way to fix it. It's displayed on every startup of perf top, which is highly distracting.
- At least on Ubuntu it appears to be wrong, because the vmlinux is available and symbol resolution/annotation appears to be working fine:
# uname -a Linux dagon 5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Oct 20 15:28:00 CEST 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux# dpkg -l | grep gb6c81ae120e ii linux-headers-5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0 5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0-1 amd64 Linux kernel headers for 5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0 on amd64 ii linux-image-5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0 5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0-1 amd64 Linux kernel, version 5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0 ii linux-image-5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0-dbg 5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0-1 amd64 Linux kernel debugging symbols for 5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0 ii linux-libc-dev:amd64 5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0-1 amd64 Linux support headers for userspace developmentNote that the 'dbg' package is installed which includes the vmlinux, and perf does seem to find it:
# dpkg-query -L linux-image-5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0-dbg | grep vmlinux$ /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/5.4.0-rc3-custom-00557-gb6c81ae120e0/vmlinuxI can see annotated kernel functions just fine.
- Finally, when I run perf as root then kallsyms and
/proc/kcoreis used to annotate the kernel. So the 'cannot resolve' message cannot even be true. :-)Instead I believe some sort of explanation should be printed in the natural flow when there's an unknown symbol or someone tries to enter a kernel symbol that cannot be further resolved. Even there it probably shouldn't be a 'warning' message, but something printed in-line where usually we'd see the annotated output - to disrupt the normal workflow as little as possible.
Secondly, there also appears to be a TUI weirdness when the annotated kernel functions are small (or weird): the blue cursor is stuck at the top and I cannot move between the annotated instructions with the down/up arrow:
Samples: 13M of event 'cycles', 4000 Hz, Event count (approx.): 1272420588851

Not sure whether it's related to function size, or perhaps to the 'hottest' instruction that the cursor is normally placed at.
Thanks,

I couldn't reproduce this one so far, with another small function, clear_page_erms, what happens is that the cursor seems to be hidden at the bottom, if you press the "magic" 'D' hotkey it will tell (at the bottom of the screen) that the idx is at 18, which for a function with just 8 output lines doesn't make sense:

Doesn't make sense, there aren't 20 entries nor the idx is 18, the nr_asm_entries is right, I'll try to follow up on this one...
But you can in these cases try to go on pressin the up arrow till the cursor appears, etc.

Yeah, I can reproduce this too - and don't see the original weirdness anymore. :-/
Will re-report if it happens again.
