* The metadata map is created with as an exclusive map (with an
excl_prog_hash) This restricts map access exclusively to the signed
loader program, preventing tampering by other processes.
* The map is then frozen, making it read-only from userspace.
* BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_ID instructs the kernel to compute the hash of the
metadata map (H') and store it in bpf_map->sha.
* The loader is then loaded with the signature which is then verified by
the kernel.
loading signed programs prebuilt into the kernel are not currently
supported. These can supported by enabling BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_ID to be
called from the kernel.

This patch extends the BPF_PROG_LOAD command by adding three new fields
to `union bpf_attr` in the user-space API:
- signature: A pointer to the signature blob.
- signature_size: The size of the signature blob.
- keyring_id: The serial number of a loaded kernel keyring (e.g.,
the user or session keyring) containing the trusted public keys.
When a BPF program is loaded with a signature, the kernel:
1. Retrieves the trusted keyring using the provided `keyring_id`.
2. Verifies the supplied signature against the BPF program's
instruction buffer.
3. If the signature is valid and was generated by a key in the trusted
keyring, the program load proceeds.
4. If no signature is provided, the load proceeds as before, allowing
for backward compatibility. LSMs can chose to restrict unsigned
programs and implement a security policy.
5. If signature verification fails for any reason,
the program is not loaded.

When cross-compiling the perf tool for ARM64, `perf help` may crash
with the following assertion failure:
help.c:122: exclude_cmds: Assertion `cmds->names[ci] == NULL' failed.
This happens when the perf binary is not named exactly "perf" or when
multiple "perf-*" binaries exist in the same directory. In such cases,
the `excludes` command list can be empty, which leads to the final
assertion in exclude_cmds() being triggered.
Add a simple guard at the beginning of exclude_cmds() to return early
if excludes->cnt is zero, preventing the crash.

Remove unused 'elf' and 'path' parameters from parse_usdt_note function
signature. These parameters are not referenced within the function body
and only add unnecessary complexity.
The function only requires the note header, data buffer, offsets, and
output structure to perform USDT note parsing.
Update function declaration, definition, and the single call site in
collect_usdt_targets() to match the simplified signature.
This is a safe internal cleanup as parse_usdt_note is a static function.

On x86-64, USDT arguments can be specified using Scale-Index-Base (SIB)
addressing, e.g. "1@-96(%rbp,%rax,8)". The current USDT implementation
in libbpf cannot parse this format, causing `bpf_program__attach_usdt()`
to fail with -ENOENT (unrecognized register).
This patch fixes this by implementing the necessary changes:
- add correct handling for SIB-addressed arguments in `bpf_usdt_arg`.
- add adaptive support to `__bpf_usdt_arg_type` and
`__bpf_usdt_arg_spec` to represent SIB addressing parameters.

Previously, re-using pinned DEVMAP maps would always fail, because
get_map_info on a DEVMAP always returns flags with BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG set,
but BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG being set on a map during creation is invalid.
Thus, ignore the BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG flag in the flags returned from
get_map_info when checking for compatibility with an existing DEVMAP.
The same problem is handled in a third-party ebpf library:

Automatically enabling a perf event after attaching a BPF prog to it is
not always desirable.
Add a new "dont_enable" field to struct bpf_perf_event_opts. While
introducing "enable" instead would be nicer in that it would avoid
a double negation in the implementation, it would make
DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS() less efficient.

Build-ID processing goodies
---------------------------
Build-IDs are content based hashes to link regions of memory to ELF files
in post processing. They have been available in distros for quite a while:
$ file /bin/bash
/bin/bash: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2,
BuildID[sha1]=707a1c670cd72f8e55ffedfbe94ea98901b7ce3a,
for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, stripped
It is possible to ask the kernel to get it from mmap executable backing
storage at time they are being put in place and send it as metadata at
that moment to have in perf.data.
Prefer that across the board to speed up 'record' time - it post processes
the samples to find binaries touched by any samples and to save them with
build-ID. It can skip reading build-ID in userspace if it comes from the
kernel.
perf record
-----------
* Make --buildid-mmap default. The kernel can generate MMAP2 events
with a build-ID from ELF header. Use that by default instead of using
inode and device ID to identify binaries. It also can be disabled
with --no-buildid-mmap.
* Use BPF for -u/--uid option to sample processes belong to a user.
BPF can track user processes more accurately and the existing logic
often fails to get the list of processes due to race with reading the
/proc filesystem.
* Generate PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA when it profiles BPF programs and
they have variables starting with "bpf_metadata_". This will help to
identify BPF objects used in the profile. This has been supported in
bpftool for some time and allows the recording of metadata such as
commit hashes, versions, etc, that now gets recorded in perf.data as
well.
* Collect list of DSOs touched in the sample callchains as well as in
the sample itself. This would increase the processing time at the end
of record, but can improve the data quality.
perf stat
---------
* Add a new 'drm' pseudo-PMU support like in 'hwmon'. It can collect
DRM usage stats using fdinfo in /proc.
On my Intel laptop, it shows like below:
$ perf list drm
...

Counting events system-wide with a specified CPU prior to this change
worked:
```
$ perf stat -e 'msr/tsc/,msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_core/,msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_atom/' -a sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
59,393,419,099 msr/tsc/
33,927,965,927 msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_core/
25,465,608,044 msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_atom/
```
However, when counting with process the counts became system wide:
```
$ perf stat -e 'msr/tsc/,msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_core/,msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_atom/' perf test -F 10
10.1: Basic parsing test : Ok
10.2: Parsing without PMU name : Ok
10.3: Parsing with PMU name : Ok
Performance counter stats for 'perf test -F 10':
59,233,549 msr/tsc/
59,227,556 msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_core/
59,224,053 msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_atom/
```
Make the handling of CPU maps with event parsing clearer. When an
event is parsed creating an evsel the cpus should be either the PMU's
cpumask or user specified CPUs.
Update perf_evlist__propagate_maps so that it doesn't clobber the user
specified CPUs. Try to make the behavior clearer, firstly fix up
missing cpumasks. Next, perform sanity checks and adjustments from the
global evlist CPU requests and for the PMU including simplifying to
the "any CPU"(-1) value. Finally remove the event if the cpumask is
empty.
So that events are opened with a CPU and a thread change stat's
create_perf_stat_counter to give both.
With the change things are fixed:
```
$ perf stat --no-scale -e 'msr/tsc/,msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_core/,msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_atom/' perf test -F 10
10.1: Basic parsing test : Ok
10.2: Parsing without PMU name : Ok
10.3: Parsing with PMU name : Ok
Performance counter stats for 'perf test -F 10':
63,704,975 msr/tsc/
47,060,704 msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_core/ (4.62%)
16,640,591 msr/tsc,cpu=cpu_atom/ (2.18%)
```
However, note the "--no-scale" option is used. This is necessary as
the running time for the event on the counter isn't the same as the
enabled time because the thread doesn't necessarily run on the CPUs
specified for the counter. All counter values are scaled with:
scaled_value = value * time_enabled / time_running
and so without --no-scale the scaled_value becomes very large. This
problem already exists on hybrid systems for the same reason. Here are
2 runs of the same code with an instructions event that counts the
same on both types of core, there is no real multiplexing happening on
the event:
```
$ perf stat -e instructions perf test -F 10
...
Performance counter stats for 'perf test -F 10':
87,896,447 cpu_atom/instructions/ (14.37%)
98,171,964 cpu_core/instructions/ (85.63%)
...
$ perf stat --no-scale -e instructions perf test -F 10
...
Performance counter stats for 'perf test -F 10':
13,069,890 cpu_atom/instructions/ (19.32%)
83,460,274 cpu_core/instructions/ (80.68%)
...
```
The scaling has inflated per-PMU instruction counts and the overall
count by 2x.
To fix this the kernel needs changing when a task+CPU event (or just
task event on hybrid) is scheduled out. A fix could be that the state
isn't inactive but off for such events, so that time_enabled counts
don't accumulate on them.

Initial __arena global variable support implementation in libbpf
contains a bug: it remembers struct bpf_map pointer for arena, which is
used later on to process relocations. Recording this pointer is
problematic because map pointers are not stable during ELF relocation
collection phase, as an array of struct bpf_map's can be reallocated,
invalidating all the pointers. Libbpf is dealing with similar issues by
using a stable internal map index, though for BPF arena map specifically
this approach wasn't used due to an oversight.
The resulting behavior is non-deterministic issue which depends on exact
layout of ELF object file, number of actual maps, etc. We didn't hit
this until very recently, when this bug started triggering crash in BPF
CI when validating one of sched-ext BPF programs.
The fix is rather straightforward: we just follow an established pattern
of remembering map index (just like obj->kconfig_map_idx, for example)
instead of `struct bpf_map *`, and resolving index to a pointer at the
point where map information is necessary.
While at it also add debug-level message for arena-related relocation
resolution information, which we already have for all other kinds of
maps.

Currently perf aborts when it finds an invalid command. I guess it
depends on the environment as I have some custom commands in the path.
$ perf bad-command
perf: 'bad-command' is not a perf-command. See 'perf --help'.
Aborted (core dumped)
It's because the exclude_cmds() in libsubcmd has a use-after-free when
it removes some entries. After copying one to another entry, it keeps
the pointer in the both position. And the next copy operation will free
the later one but it's the same entry in the previous one.
For example, let's say cmds = { A, B, C, D, E } and excludes = { B, E }.
ci cj ei cmds-name excludes
-----------+--------------------
0 0 0 | A B : cmp < 0, ci == cj
1 1 0 | B B : cmp == 0
2 1 1 | C E : cmp < 0, ci != cj
At this point, it frees cmds->names[1] and cmds->names[1] is assigned to
cmds->names[2].
3 2 1 | D E : cmp < 0, ci != cj
Now it frees cmds->names[2] but it's the same as cmds->names[1]. So
accessing cmds->names[1] will be invalid.
This makes the subcmd tests succeed.

The `name` field in `obj->externs` points into the BTF data at initial
open time. However, some functions may invalidate this after opening and
before loading (e.g. `bpf_map__set_value_size`), which results in
pointers into freed memory and undefined behavior.
The simplest solution is to simply `strdup` these strings, similar to
the `essent_name`, and free them at the same time.
In order to test this path, the `global_map_resize` BPF selftest is
modified slightly to ensure the presence of an extern, which causes this
test to fail prior to the fix. Given there isn't an obvious API or error
to test against, I opted to add this to the existing test as an aspect
of the resizing feature rather than duplicate the test.

Look for .rodata maps, find ones with 'bpf_metadata_' variables, extract
their values as strings, and create a new PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA
synthetic event using that data. The code gets invoked from the existing
routine perf_event__synthesize_one_bpf_prog().
For example, a BPF program with the following variables:
const char bpf_metadata_version[] SEC(".rodata") = "3.14159";
int bpf_metadata_value[] SEC(".rodata") = 42;
would generate a PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA record with:
.prog_name = <BPF program name, e.g. "bpf_prog_a1b2c3_foo">
.nr_entries = 2
.entries[0].key = "version"
.entries[0].value = "3.14159"
.entries[1].key = "value"
.entries[1].value = "42"
Each of the BPF programs and subprograms that share those variables would
get a distinct PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA record, with the ".prog_name"
showing the name of each program or subprogram. The prog_name is
deliberately the same as the ".name" field in the corresponding
PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL record.
This code only gets invoked if support for displaying BTF char arrays
as strings is detected.

libbpf_err_ptr() helpers are meant to return NULL and set errno, if
there is an error. But btf_parse_raw_mmap() is meant to be used
internally and is expected to return ERR_PTR() values. Because of this
mismatch, when libbpf tries to mmap /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux, we don't
detect the error correctly with IS_ERR() check, and never fallback to
old non-mmap-based way of loading vmlinux BTF.
Fix this by using proper ERR_PTR() returns internally.

The BTF dumper code currently displays arrays of characters as just that -
arrays, with each character formatted individually. Sometimes this is what
makes sense, but it's nice to be able to treat that array as a string.
This change adds a special case to the btf_dump functionality to allow
0-terminated arrays of single-byte integer values to be printed as
character strings. Characters for which isprint() returns false are
printed as hex-escaped values. This is enabled when the new ".emit_strings"
is set to 1 in the btf_dump_type_data_opts structure.
As an example, here's what it looks like to dump the string "hello" using
a few different field values for btf_dump_type_data_opts (.compact = 1):
- .emit_strings = 0, .skip_names = 0: (char[6])['h','e','l','l','o',]
- .emit_strings = 0, .skip_names = 1: ['h','e','l','l','o',]
- .emit_strings = 1, .skip_names = 0: (char[6])"hello"
- .emit_strings = 1, .skip_names = 1: "hello"
Here's the string "h\xff", dumped with .compact = 1 and .skip_names = 1:
- .emit_strings = 0: ['h',-1,]
- .emit_strings = 1: "h\xff"

libbpf handling of split BTF has been written largely with the
assumption that multiple splits are possible, i.e. split BTF on top of
split BTF on top of base BTF. One area where this does not quite work
is string handling in split BTF; the start string offset should be the
base BTF string section length + the base BTF string offset. This
worked in the past because for a single split BTF with base the start
string offset was always 0.

BTF dedup has a strong assumption that compiler with deduplicate identical
types within any given compilation unit (i.e., .c file). This property
is used when establishing equilvalence of two subgraphs of types.
Unfortunately, this property doesn't always holds in practice. We've
seen cases of having truly identical structs, unions, array definitions,
and, most recently, even pointers to the same type being duplicated
within CU.
Previously, we mitigated this on a case-by-case basis, adding a few
simple heuristics for validating that two BTF types (having two
different type IDs) are structurally the same. But this approach scales
poorly, and we can have more weird cases come up in the future.
So let's take a half-step back, and implement a bit more generic
structural equivalence check, recursively. We still limit it to
reasonable depth to avoid long reference loops. Depth-wise limiting of
potentially cyclical graph isn't great, but as I mentioned below doesn't
seem to be detrimental performance-wise. We can always improve this in
the future with per-type visited markers, if necessary.
Performance-wise this doesn't seem too affect vmlinux BTF dedup, which
makes sense because this logic kicks in not so frequently and only if we
already established a canonical candidate type match, but suddenly find
a different (but probably identical) type.

This happens because BPF_CORE_READ (and other macro) declare the

from intermediate types.
Fix this by using __typeof_unqual__, when supported. (And when it
is not supported, the problem shouldn't appear, as older compilers

When libperf is built alone in-source, $(OUTPUT) isn't set. This causes
the generated uapi path to resolve to '/../arch' which results in a
permissions error:
mkdir: cannot create directory '/../arch': Permission denied
Fix it by removing the preceding '/..' which means that it gets
generated either in the tools/lib/perf part of the tree or the OUTPUT
folder. Some other rules that rely on OUTPUT further refine this
conditionally depending on whether it's an in-source or out-of-source
build, but I don't think we need the extra complexity here. And this
rule is slightly different to others because the header is needed by
both libperf and Perf. This is further complicated by the fact that Perf
always passes O=... to libperf even for in source builds, meaning that
OUTPUT isn't set consistently between projects.
Because we're no longer going one level up to try to generate the file
in the tools/ folder, Perf's include rule needs to descend into libperf.
Also fix the clean rule while we're here.

Recently as a side-effect of
commit ac053946f5 ("compiler.h: introduce TYPEOF_UNQUAL() macro")
issues were observed in deduplication between modules and kernel BTF
such that a large number of kernel types were not deduplicated so
were found in module BTF (task_struct, bpf_prog etc). The root cause
appeared to be a failure to dedup struct types, specifically those
with members that were pointers with __percpu annotations.
The issue in dedup is at the point that we are deduplicating structures,
we have not yet deduplicated reference types like pointers. If multiple
copies of a pointer point at the same (deduplicated) integer as in this
case, we do not see them as identical. Special handling already exists
to deal with structures and arrays, so add pointer handling here too.

Since pulling in the kernel changes in commit 22f72088ff ("tools
headers: Update the syscall table with the kernel sources"), arm64 is
no longer using a generic syscall header and generates one from the
syscall table. Therefore we must also generate the syscall header for
arm64 before building Perf.
Add it as a dependency to libperf which uses one syscall number. Perf
uses more, but as libperf is a dependency of Perf it will be generated
for both.
Future platforms that need this will have to add their own syscall-y
targets in libperf manually. Unfortunately the arch specific files that
do this (e.g. arch/arm64/include/asm/Kbuild) can't easily be imported
into the Perf build. But Perf only needs a subset of the generated files
anyway, so redefining them is probably the correct thing to do.

number such that <section start + symbol offset> overflows and points
before the section data in the memory.
Consider the situation below where:
- prog_start = sec_start + symbol_offset <-- size_t overflow here
- prog_end = prog_start + prog_size
prog_start sec_start prog_end sec_end

The problem here is that currently, libbpf only checks that the program
end is within the section bounds. There used to be a check
`while (sec_off < sec_sz)` in bpf_object__add_programs, however, it was
removed by commit 6245947c1b ("libbpf: Allow gaps in BPF program
sections to support overriden weak functions").
Add a check for detecting the overflow of `sec_off + prog_sz` to
bpf_object__init_prog to fix this issue.

Introducing new libbpf API getters for BTF.ext func and line info,
namely:
bpf_program__func_info
bpf_program__func_info_cnt
bpf_program__line_info
bpf_program__line_info_cnt
This change enables scenarios, when user needs to load bpf_program
directly using `bpf_prog_load`, instead of higher-level
`bpf_object__load`. Line and func info are required for checking BTF
info in verifier; verification may fail without these fields if, for
example, program calls `bpf_obj_new`.

Since memfd_create() is not consistently available across different
bionic libc implementations, using memfd_create() directly can break
some Android builds:
tools/lib/bpf/linker.c:576:7: error: implicit declaration of function 'memfd_create' [-Werror,-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
576 | fd = memfd_create(filename, 0);
| ^
To fix this, relocate and inline the sys_memfd_create() helper so that
it can be used in "linker.c". Similar issues were previously fixed by
commit 9fa5e1a180 ("libbpf: Call memfd_create() syscall directly").

perf record
-----------
* Introduce latency profiling using scheduler information. The latency
profiling is to show impacts on wall-time rather than cpu-time. By
tracking context switches, it can weight samples and find which part
of the code contributed more to the execution latency.
The value (period) of the sample is weighted by dividing it by the
number of parallel execution at the moment. The parallelism is
tracked in perf report with sched-switch records. This will reduce
the portion that are run in parallel and in turn increase the portion
of serial executions.
For now, it's limited to profile processes, IOW system-wide profiling
is not supported. You can add --latency option to enable this.
$ perf record --latency -- make -C tools/perf
I've run the above command for perf build which adds -j option to
make with the number of CPUs in the system internally. Normally
it'd show something like below:
$ perf report -F overhead,comm
...
#
# Overhead Command
# ........ ...............
#
78.97% cc1
6.54% python3
4.21% shellcheck
3.28% ld
1.80% as
1.37% cc1plus
0.80% sh
0.62% clang
0.56% gcc
0.44% perl
0.39% make
...
The cc1 takes around 80% of the overhead as it's the actual compiler.
However it runs in parallel so its contribution to latency may be less
than that. Now, perf report will show both overhead and latency (if
--latency was given at record time) like below:
$ perf report -s comm
...
#
# Overhead Latency Command
# ........ ........ ...............
#
78.97% 48.66% cc1
6.54% 25.68% python3
4.21% 0.39% shellcheck
3.28% 13.70% ld
1.80% 2.56% as
1.37% 3.08% cc1plus
0.80% 0.98% sh
0.62% 0.61% clang
0.56% 0.33% gcc
0.44% 1.71% perl
0.39% 0.83% make
...
You can see latency of cc1 goes down to around 50% and python3 and ld
contribute a lot more than their overhead. You can use --latency
option in perf report to get the same result but ordered by latency.
$ perf report --latency -s comm

When statically linking symbols can be replaced with those from other
statically linked libraries depending on the link order and the hoped
for "multiple definition" error may not appear. To avoid conflicts it
is good practice to namespace symbols, this change renames errstr to

errstr(err) to libbpf_errstr(err).

When using EXTRA_CFLAGS, for example "EXTRA_CFLAGS=-DREFCNT_CHECKING=1",
this construct stops setting -g which you'd expect would not be affected
by adding extra flags. Additionally, EXTRA_CFLAGS should be the last
thing to be appended so that it can be used to undo any defaults. And no
condition is required, just += appends to any existing CFLAGS and also
appends or doesn't append EXTRA_CFLAGS if they are or aren't set.
It's not clear why DEBUG=1 is required for -g in Perf when in libperf
it's always on, but I don't think we need to change that behavior now
because someone may be depending on it.

Patch series "lib/interval_tree: add some test cases and cleanup", v2.
Since rbtree/augmented tree/interval tree share similar data structure,
besides new cases for interval tree, this patch set also does cleanup for
others.
This patch (of 7):
Currently we have some tests for rbtree related data structure, e.g.
rbtree, augmented rbtree, interval tree, in lib/ as kernel module.
To facilitate the test and debug for those fundamental data structure,
this patch enable those tests in userland.

Introduce bpf_object__prepare API: additional intermediate preparation
step that performs ELF processing, relocations, prepares final state of
BPF program instructions (accessible with bpf_program__insns()), creates
and (potentially) pins maps, and stops short of loading BPF programs.
We anticipate few use cases for this API, such as:
* Use prepare to initialize bpf_token, without loading freplace
programs, unlocking possibility to lookup BTF of other programs.
* Execute prepare to obtain finalized BPF program instructions without
loading programs, enabling tools like veristat to process one program at
a time, without incurring cost of ELF parsing and processing.

Fewer than 32k logical CPUs are currently supported by perf. A cpumap
is indexed by an integer (see perf_cpu_map__cpu) yielding a perf_cpu
that wraps a 4-byte int for the logical CPU - the wrapping is done
deliberately to avoid confusing a logical CPU with an index into a
cpumap. Using a 4-byte int within the perf_cpu is larger than required
so this patch reduces it to the 2-byte int16_t. For a cpumap
containing 16 entries this will reduce the array size from 64 to 32
bytes. For very large servers with lots of logical CPUs the size
savings will be greater.

In `set_kcfg_value_str`, an untrusted string is accessed with the assumption
that it will be at least two characters long due to the presence of checks for
opening and closing quotes. But the check for the closing quote
(value[len - 1] != '"') misses the fact that it could be checking the opening
quote itself in case of an invalid input that consists of just the opening
quote.
This commit adds an explicit check to make sure the string is at least two
characters long.

Libbpf has a somewhat obscure feature of automatically adjusting the
"size" of LDX/STX/ST instruction (memory store and load instructions),
based on originally recorded access size (u8, u16, u32, or u64) and the
actual size of the field on target kernel. This is meant to facilitate
using BPF CO-RE on 32-bit architectures (pointers are always 64-bit in
BPF, but host kernel's BTF will have it as 32-bit type), as well as
generally supporting safe type changes (unsigned integer type changes
can be transparently "relocated").
One issue that surfaced only now, 5 years after this logic was
implemented, is how this all works when dealing with fields that are
arrays. This isn't all that easy and straightforward to hit (see
selftests that reproduce this condition), but one of sched_ext BPF
programs did hit it with innocent looking loop.
Long story short, libbpf used to calculate entire array size, instead of
making sure to only calculate array's element size. But it's the element
that is loaded by LDX/STX/ST instructions (1, 2, 4, or 8 bytes), so
that's what libbpf should check. This patch adjusts the logic for
arrays and fixed the issue.

There are a lot of changes in the perf tools in this cycle.
build
-----
* Use generic syscall table to generate syscall numbers on supported archs.
* This also enables to get rid of libaudit which was used for syscall numbers.
* Remove python2 support as it's deprecated for years.
* Fix issues on static build with libzstd.
perf record
-----------
* Intel-PT supports "aux-action" config term to pause or resume tracing in
the aux-buffer. Users can start the intel_pt event as "started-paused" and
configure other events to control the Intel-PT tracing.
# perf record --kcore -e intel_pt/aux-action=start-paused/ \
-e syscalls:sys_enter_newuname/aux-action=resume/ \
-e syscalls:sys_exit_newuname/aux-action=pause/ -- uname
This requires the kernel support (which was added in v6.13).
perf lock
---------
* 'perf lock contention' command has an ability to symbolize locks in
dynamically allocated objects using slab cache name when it runs with BPF.
Those dynamic locks would have "&" prefix in the name to distinguish them
from ordinary (static) locks.
# perf lock con -abl -E 5 sleep 1
contended total wait max wait avg wait address symbol
2 1.95 us 1.77 us 975 ns ffff9d5e852d3498 &task_struct (mutex)
1 1.18 us 1.18 us 1.18 us ffff9d5e852d3538 &task_struct (mutex)
4 1.12 us 354 ns 279 ns ffff9d5e841ca800 &kmalloc-cg-512 (mutex)
2 859 ns 617 ns 429 ns ffffffffa41c3620 delayed_uprobe_lock (mutex)
3 691 ns 388 ns 230 ns ffffffffa41c0940 pack_mutex (mutex)
This also requires the kernel/BPF support (which was added in v6.13).
perf ftrace
-----------
* 'perf ftrace latency' command gets a couple of options to support linear
buckets instead of exponential. Also it's possible to specify max and
min latency for the linear buckets.
# perf ftrace latency -abn -T switch_mm_irqs_off --bucket-range=100 \
--min-latency=200 --max-latency=800 -- sleep 1
# DURATION | COUNT | GRAPH |
0 - 200 ns | 186 | ### |
200 - 300 ns | 256 | ##### |
300 - 400 ns | 364 | ####### |
400 - 500 ns | 223 | #### |
500 - 600 ns | 111 | ## |
600 - 700 ns | 41 | |
700 - 800 ns | 141 | ## |
800 - ... ns | 169 | ### |
# statistics (in nsec)
total time: 2162212
avg time: 967
max time: 16817
min time: 132
count: 2236
* As you can see in the above example, it nows shows the statistics at the
end so that users can see the avg/max/min latencies easily.
* 'perf ftrace profile' command has --graph-opts option like 'perf ftrace
trace' so that it can control the tracing behaviors in the same way.
For example, it can limit the function call depth or threshold.
perf script
-----------
* Improve physical memory resolution in 'mem-phys-addr' script by parsing
/proc/iomem file.
# perf script mem-phys-addr -- find /
...

Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.14-2025-01-21' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools
Pull perf-tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
"There are a lot of changes in the perf tools in this cycle.
build:
- Use generic syscall table to generate syscall numbers on supported
archs
- This also enables to get rid of libaudit which was used for syscall
numbers
- Remove python2 support as it's deprecated for years
- Fix issues on static build with libzstd
perf record:
- Intel-PT supports "aux-action" config term to pause or resume
tracing in the aux-buffer. Users can start the intel_pt event as
"started-paused" and configure other events to control the Intel-PT
tracing:
# perf record --kcore -e intel_pt/aux-action=start-paused/ \
-e syscalls:sys_enter_newuname/aux-action=resume/ \
-e syscalls:sys_exit_newuname/aux-action=pause/ -- uname
This requires kernel support (which was added in v6.13)
perf lock:
- 'perf lock contention' command has an ability to symbolize locks in
dynamically allocated objects using slab cache name when it runs
with BPF. Those dynamic locks would have "&" prefix in the name to
distinguish them from ordinary (static) locks
# perf lock con -abl -E 5 sleep 1
contended total wait max wait avg wait address symbol

3 691 ns 388 ns 230 ns ffffffffa41c0940 pack_mutex (mutex)
This also requires kernel/BPF support (which was added in v6.13)
perf ftrace:
- 'perf ftrace latency' command gets a couple of options to support
linear buckets instead of exponential. Also it's possible to
specify max and min latency for the linear buckets:
# perf ftrace latency -abn -T switch_mm_irqs_off --bucket-range=100 \
--min-latency=200 --max-latency=800 -- sleep 1
# DURATION | COUNT | GRAPH |
0 - 200 ns | 186 | ### |
200 - 300 ns | 256 | ##### |
300 - 400 ns | 364 | ####### |
400 - 500 ns | 223 | #### |
500 - 600 ns | 111 | ## |
600 - 700 ns | 41 | |
700 - 800 ns | 141 | ## |
800 - ... ns | 169 | ### |
# statistics (in nsec)
total time: 2162212
avg time: 967
max time: 16817
min time: 132
count: 2236
- As you can see in the above example, it nows shows the statistics
at the end so that users can see the avg/max/min latencies easily
- 'perf ftrace profile' command has --graph-opts option like 'perf
ftrace trace' so that it can control the tracing behaviors in the
same way. For example, it can limit the function call depth or
threshold
perf script:
- Improve physical memory resolution in 'mem-phys-addr' script by
parsing /proc/iomem file
# perf script mem-phys-addr -- find /

Some versions of kernel were stripping out '.llvm.<hash>' suffix from
kerne symbols (produced by Clang LTO compilation) from function names
reported in available_filter_functions, while kallsyms reported full
original name. This confuses libbpf's multi-kprobe logic of finding all
matching kernel functions for specified user glob pattern by joining
available_filter_functions and kallsyms contents, because joining by
full symbol name won't work for symbols containing '.llvm.<hash>' suffix.
This was eventually fixed by [0] in the kernel, but we'd like to not
regress multi-kprobe experience and add a work around for this bug on
libbpf side, stripping kallsym's name if it matches user pattern and
contains '.llvm.' suffix.

When redirecting the split BTF to the vmlinux base BTF, we need to mark
the distilled base struct/union members of split BTF structs/unions in
id_map with BTF_IS_EMBEDDED. This indicates that these types must match
both name and size later. Therefore, we need to traverse the entire
split BTF, which involves traversing type IDs from nr_dist_base_types to
nr_types. However, the current implementation uses an incorrect
traversal end type ID, so let's correct it.

Jordan reported an issue in Meta production environment where func
try_to_wake_up() is renamed to try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hash>() by clang
compiler at lto mode. The original 'kprobe/try_to_wake_up' does not
work any more since try_to_wake_up() does not match the actual func
name in /proc/kallsyms.
There are a couple of ways to resolve this issue. For example, in
attach_kprobe(), we could do lookup in /proc/kallsyms so try_to_wake_up()
can be replaced by try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hach>(). Or we can force users
to use bpf_program__attach_kprobe() where they need to lookup
/proc/kallsyms to find out try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hach>(). But these two
approaches requires extra work by either libbpf or user.
Luckily, suggested by Andrii, multi kprobe already supports wildcard ('*')
for symbol matching. In the above example, 'try_to_wake_up*' can match
to try_to_wake_up() or try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hash>() and this allows
bpf prog works for different kernels as some kernels may have
try_to_wake_up() and some others may have try_to_wake_up.llvm.<hash>().
The original intention is to kprobe try_to_wake_up() only, so an optional
field unique_match is added to struct bpf_kprobe_multi_opts. If the
field is set to true, the number of matched functions must be one.
Otherwise, the attachment will fail. In the above case, multi kprobe
with 'try_to_wake_up*' and unique_match preserves user functionality.

Starting from 105ff5339f ("mm/memfd: add MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL and
MFD_EXEC") and until 1717449b44 ("memfd: drop warning for missing
exec-related flags"), the kernel would print a warning if neither
MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL nor MFD_EXEC is set in memfd_create().
If libbpf runs on on a kernel between these two commits (eg. on an
improperly backported system), it'll trigger this warning.
To avoid this warning (and also be more secure), explicitly set
MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL. But since libbpf can be run on potentially very old
kernels, leave a fallback for kernels without MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL support.

The new_fd and add_fd functions correspond to the original new and
add_file functions, but accept an FD instead of a file name. This
gives API consumers the option of using anonymous files/memfds to
avoid writing ELFs to disk.
This new API will be useful for performing linking as part of
bpftrace's JIT compilation.
The add_buf function is a convenience wrapper that does the work of
creating a memfd for the caller.

Since the linked fixes: commit, specifying a CPU on hybrid platforms
results in an error because Perf tries to open an extended type event
on "any" CPU which isn't valid. Extended type events can only be opened
on CPUs that match the type.
Before (working):
$ perf record --cpu 1 -- true
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.385 MB perf.data (7 samples) ]
After (not working):
$ perf record -C 1 -- true
WARNING: A requested CPU in '1' is not supported by PMU 'cpu_atom' (CPUs 16-27) for event 'cycles:P'
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (cpu_atom/cycles:P/).
/bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.
(Ignore the warning message, that's expected and not particularly
relevant to this issue).
This is because perf_cpu_map__intersect() of the user specified CPU (1)
and one of the PMU's CPUs (16-27) correctly results in an empty (NULL)
CPU map. However for the purposes of opening an event, libperf converts
empty CPU maps into an any CPU (-1) which the kernel rejects.
Fix it by deleting evsels with empty CPU maps in the specific case where
user requested CPU maps are evaluated.

Instead of growing the array by 2048, grow by the larger of the current
range or 16.
As ranges are typical for things like the online CPUs this will mean a
single allocation happens.
While uncore CPU maps will grow 16 at a time which is a value that is
generous except say on large servers.

The perf_cpu_map__merge() function has two arguments, 'orig' and
'other'. The function definition might cause confusion as it could give
the impression that the CPU maps in the two arguments are copied into a
new allocated structure, which is then returned as the result.
The purpose of the function is to merge the CPU map 'other' into the CPU
map 'orig'. This commit changes the 'orig' argument to a pointer to
pointer, so the new result will be updated into 'orig'.
The return value is changed to an int type, as an error number or 0 for
success.
Update callers and tests for the new function definition.

Libelf functions do not set errno on failure. Instead, it relies on its
internal _elf_errno value, that can be retrieved via elf_errno (or the
corresponding message via elf_errmsg()). From "man libelf":
If a libelf function encounters an error it will set an internal
error code that can be retrieved with elf_errno. Each thread
maintains its own separate error code. The meaning of each error
code can be determined with elf_errmsg, which returns a string
describing the error.
As a consequence, libbpf should not return -errno when a function from
libelf fails, because an empty value will not be interpreted as an error
and won't prevent the program to stop. This is visible in
bpf_linker__add_file(), for example, where we call a succession of
functions that rely on libelf:
err = err ?: linker_load_obj_file(linker, filename, opts, &obj);
err = err ?: linker_append_sec_data(linker, &obj);
err = err ?: linker_append_elf_syms(linker, &obj);
err = err ?: linker_append_elf_relos(linker, &obj);

If the object file that we try to process is not, in fact, a correct
object file, linker_load_obj_file() may fail with errno not being set,
and return 0. In this case we attempt to run linker_append_elf_sysms()
and may segfault.
This can happen (and was discovered) with bpftool:
$ bpftool gen object output.o sample_ret0.bpf.c
libbpf: failed to get ELF header for sample_ret0.bpf.c: invalid `Elf' handle
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) bpftool gen object output.o sample_ret0.bpf.c
Fix the issue by returning a non-null error code (-EINVAL) when libelf
functions fail.

When running `bpftool` on a kernel module installed in `/lib/modules...`,
this error is encountered if the user does not specify `--base-btf` to
point to a valid base BTF (e.g. usually in `/sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux`).
However, looking at the debug output to determine the cause of the error
simply says `Invalid BTF string section`, which does not point to the
actual source of the error. This just improves that debug message to tell
users what happened.

USDT ELF note optionally can record an offset of .stapsdt.base, which is
used to make adjustments to USDT target attach address. Currently,
libbpf will do this address adjustment unconditionally if it finds
.stapsdt.base ELF section in target binary. But there is a corner case
where .stapsdt.base ELF section is present, but specific USDT note
doesn't reference it. In such case, libbpf will basically just add base
address and end up with absolutely incorrect USDT target address.
This adjustment has to be done only if both .stapsdt.sema section is
present and USDT note is recording a reference to it.

only for system-wide events but the kernel started to support such a
setup since v6.12.
This is to reduce the number of PMU interrupts. The samples of the
leader event will contain counts of other events and no samples will
be generated for the other member events.

Build
-----
* Make libunwind opt-in (LIBUNWIND=1) rather than opt-out. The perf
tools are generally built with libelf and libdw which has unwinder
functionality. The libunwind support predates it and no need to
have duplicate unwinders by default.
* Rename NO_DWARF=1 build option to NO_LIBDW=1 in order to clarify it's
using libdw for handling DWARF information.
Internals
---------
* Do not set exclude_guest bit in the perf_event_attr by default. This
was causing a trouble in AMD IBS PMU as it doesn't support the bit.
The bit will be set when it's needed later by the fallback logic.
Also update the missing feature detection logic to make sure not clear
supported bits unnecessarily.
* Run perf test in parallel by default and mark flaky tests "exclusive"
to run them serially at the end. Some test numbers are changed but
the test can complete in less than half the time.
JSON vendor events
------------------
* Add AMD Zen 5 events and metrics.
* Add i.MX91 and i.MX95 DDR metrics
* Fix HiSilicon HIP08 Topdown metric name.
* Support compat events on PowerPC.

This patch makes a minor adjustment by moving the va_end call before
exit. Since the exit() function terminates the program, any code
after exit(128) (i.e., va_end(params)) is unreachable and thus not
executed. Placing va_end before exit ensures that the va_list is
properly cleaned up.

Since BPF skeleton inception libbpf has been doing mmap()'ing of global
data ARRAY maps in bpf_object__load_skeleton() API, which is used by
code generated .skel.h files (i.e., by BPF skeletons only).
This is wrong because if BPF object is loaded through generic
bpf_object__load() API, global data maps won't be re-mmap()'ed after
load step, and memory pointers returned from bpf_map__initial_value()
would be wrong and won't reflect the actual memory shared between BPF
program and user space.
bpf_map__initial_value() return result is rarely used after load, so
this went unnoticed for a really long time, until bpftrace project
attempted to load BPF object through generic bpf_object__load() API and
then used BPF subskeleton instantiated from such bpf_object. It turned
out that .data/.rodata/.bss data updates through such subskeleton was
"blackholed", all because libbpf wouldn't re-mmap() those maps during
bpf_object__load() phase.
Long story short, this step should be done by libbpf regardless of BPF
skeleton usage, right after BPF map is created in the kernel. This patch
moves this functionality into bpf_object__populate_internal_map() to
achieve this. And bpf_object__load_skeleton() is now simple and almost
trivial, only propagating these mmap()'ed pointers into user-supplied
skeleton structs.
We also do trivial adjustments to error reporting inside
bpf_object__populate_internal_map() for consistency with the rest of
libbpf's map-handling code.

Libbpf pre-1.0 had a legacy logic of allowing singular non-annotated

sole entry BPF program (unless there were other explicit entry
programs).
This behavior was dropped during libbpf 1.0 transition period (unless
LIBBPF_STRICT_SEC_NAME flag was unset in libbpf_mode). When 1.0 was
released and all the legacy behavior was removed, the bug slipped
through leaving this legacy behavior around.

Reduce log level of BTF loading error to INFO if BTF is not required.
Andrii says:
Nowadays the expectation is that the BPF program will have a valid
.BTF section, so even though .BTF is "optional", I think it's fine
to emit a warning for that case (any reasonably recent Clang will
produce valid BTF).
Ihor's patch is fixing the situation with an outdated host kernel
that doesn't understand BTF. libbpf will try to "upload" the
program's BTF, but if that fails and the BPF object doesn't use
any features that require having BTF uploaded, then it's just an
information message to the user, but otherwise can be ignored.

perf_sample_id is modified to support tracking per-thread

install_doc of tools/lib/perf/Makefile invokes install-man,
install-html, and install-examples of
tools/lib/perf/Documentation/Makefile at once. This invocation succeeds
when make runs in serial but can fail when make runs in parallel because
while install-man of tools/lib/perf/Documentation/Makefile depends on
all, install-html depends on nothing and can run ahead of all.
Explicitly specify the dependencies of install-html to ensure that
they are resolved before install-html.

- Use BPF + BTF to collect and pretty print syscall and tracepoint arguments in
'perf trace', done as an GSoC activity.
- Data-type profiling improvements:
- Cache debuginfo to speed up data type resolution.
- Add the 'typecln' sort order, to show which cacheline in a target is hot or
cold. The following shows members in the cfs_rq's first cache line:
$ perf report -s type,typecln,typeoff -H
...
- 2.67% struct cfs_rq
+ 1.23% struct cfs_rq: cache-line 2
+ 0.57% struct cfs_rq: cache-line 4
+ 0.46% struct cfs_rq: cache-line 6
- 0.41% struct cfs_rq: cache-line 0
0.39% struct cfs_rq +0x14 (h_nr_running)
0.02% struct cfs_rq +0x38 (tasks_timeline.rb_leftmost)
- When a typedef resolves to a unnamed struct, use the typedef name.
- When a struct has just one basic type field (int, etc), resolve the type
sort order to the name of the struct, not the type of the field.
- Support type folding/unfolding in the data-type annotation TUI.
- Fix bitfields offsets and sizes.
- Initial support for PowerPC, using libcapstone and the usual objdump
disassembly parsing routines.
- Add support for disassembling and addr2line using the LLVM libraries,
speeding up those operations.
- Support --addr2line option in 'perf script' as with other tools.
- Intel branch counters (LBR event logging) support, only available in recent
Intel processors, for instance, the new "brcntr" field can be asked from
'perf script' to print the information collected from this feature:
$ perf script -F +brstackinsn,+brcntr
# Branch counter abbr list:
# branch-instructions:ppp = A
# branch-misses = B

- Support Timed PEBS (Precise Event-Based Sampling), a recent hardware feature
in Intel processors.
- Add 'perf ftrace profile' subcommand, using ftrace's function-graph tracer so
that users can see the total, average, max execution time as well as the
number of invocations easily, for instance:
$ sudo perf ftrace profile -G __x64_sys_perf_event_open -- \

-O6 is very much not-a-thing. Really, this should've been dropped
entirely in 49b3cd306e ("tools: Set the maximum optimization level
according to the compiler being used") instead of just passing it for
not-Clang.
Just collapse it down to -O3, instead of "-O6 unless Clang, in which case
-O3".
GCC interprets > -O3 as -O3. It doesn't even interpret > -O3 as -Ofast,
which is a good thing, given -Ofast has specific (non-)requirements for
code built using it. So, this does nothing except look a bit daft.
Remove the silliness and also save a few lines in the Makefiles accordingly.

As reported by Andrii we don't currently recognize uretprobe.multi.s
programs as return probes due to using (wrong) strcmp function.
Using str_has_pfx() instead to match uretprobe.multi prefix.
Tests are passing, because the return program was executed
as entry program and all counts were incremented properly.

Currently, commands which depend on 'parse_options_subcommand()' don't
show the usage string, and instead show '(null)'
$ ./perf sched
Usage: (null)
-D, --dump-raw-trace dump raw trace in ASCII
-f, --force don't complain, do it
-i, --input <file> input file name
-v, --verbose be more verbose (show symbol address, etc)
'parse_options_subcommand()' is generally expected to initialise the usage
string, with information in the passed 'subcommands[]' array
This behaviour was changed in:
230a7a71f9 ("libsubcmd: Fix parse-options memory leak")
Where the generated usage string is deallocated, and usage[0] string is
reassigned as NULL.
As discussed in [1], free the allocated usage string in the main
function itself, and don't reset usage string to NULL in
parse_options_subcommand
With this change, the behaviour is restored.
$ ./perf sched
Usage: perf sched [<options>] {record|latency|map|replay|script|timehist}
-D, --dump-raw-trace dump raw trace in ASCII
-f, --force don't complain, do it
-i, --input <file> input file name
-v, --verbose be more verbose (show symbol address, etc)

creating a distilled BTF, we need to preserve original endianness.
Fix by updating libbpf's btf__distill_base() and btf_new_empty() to retain
the byte order of any source BTF objects when creating new ones.
Fixes: ba451366bf ("libbpf: Implement basic split BTF support")
Fixes: 58e185a0dc ("libbpf: Add btf__distill_base() creating split BTF with distilled base BTF")

We do an ugly copying of options in bpf_object__open_skeleton() just to
be able to set object name from skeleton's recorded name (while still
allowing user to override it through opts->object_name).
This is not just ugly, but it also is broken due to memcpy() that
doesn't take into account potential skel_opts' and user-provided opts'
sizes differences due to backward and forward compatibility. This leads
to copying over extra bytes and then failing to validate options
properly. It could, technically, lead also to SIGSEGV, if we are unlucky.
So just get rid of that memory copy completely and instead pass
default object name into bpf_object_open() directly, simplifying all
this significantly. The rule now is that obj_name should be non-NULL for
bpf_object_open() when called with in-memory buffer, so validate that
explicitly as well.
We adopt bpf_object__open_mem() to this as well and generate default
name (based on buffer memory address and size) outside of bpf_object_open().

In reality, our use is fine, it's just that GCC doesn't model errno
here (see linked GCC bug). Suppress -Wmaybe-uninitialized accordingly
by initializing elf_fd.fd to -1 and elf_fd.elf to NULL.
I've done this in two other functions as well given it could easily
occur there too (same access/use pattern).

The dependencies in tools/lib/bpf/Makefile are incorrect. Before we
recurse to build $(BPF_IN_STATIC), we need to build its 'fixdep'
executable.
I can't use the usual shortcut from Makefile.include:
<target>: <sources> fixdep
because its 'fixdep' target relies on $(OUTPUT), and $(OUTPUT) differs
in the parent 'make' versus the child 'make' -- so I imitate it via
open-coding.
I tweak a few $(MAKE) invocations while I'm at it, because
1. I'm adding a new recursive make; and
2. these recursive 'make's print spurious lines about files that are "up
to date" (which isn't normally a feature in Kbuild subtargets) or
"jobserver not available" (see [1])
I also need to tweak the assignment of the OUTPUT variable, so that
relative path builds work. For example, for 'make tools/lib/bpf', OUTPUT
is unset, and is usually treated as "cwd" -- but recursive make will
change cwd and so OUTPUT has a new meaning. For consistency, I ensure
OUTPUT is always an absolute path.
And $(Q) gets a backup definition in tools/build/Makefile.include,
because Makefile.include is sometimes included without
tools/build/Makefile, so the "quiet command" stuff doesn't actually work
consistently without it.
After this change, top-level builds result in an empty grep result from:
$ grep 'cannot find fixdep' $(find tools/ -name '*.cmd')
[1] https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/MAKE-Variable.html
If we're not using $(MAKE) directly, then we need to use more '+'.

All built targets need fixdep to be built first, before handling object
dependencies [1]. We're missing one such dependency before the libsubcmd
target.
This resolves .cmd file generation issues such that the following
sequence produces many fewer results:
$ git clean -xfd tools/
$ make tools/objtool
$ grep "cannot find fixdep" $(find tools/objtool -name '*.cmd')
In particular, only a buggy tools/objtool/libsubcmd/.fixdep.o.cmd
remains, due to circular dependencies of fixdep on itself.
Such incomplete .cmd files don't usually cause a direct problem, since
they're designed to fail "open", but they can cause some subtle problems
that would otherwise be handled by proper fixdep'd dependency files. [2]
[1] This problem is better described in commit abb26210a3 ("perf
tools: Force fixdep compilation at the start of the build"). I don't
apply its solution here, because additional recursive make can be a bit
of overkill.
[2] Example failure case:
cp -arl linux-src linux-src2
cd linux-src2
make O=/path/to/out
cd ../linux-src
rm -rf ../linux-src2
make O=/path/to/out
Previously, we'd see errors like:
make[6]: *** No rule to make target
'/path/to/linux-src2/tools/include/linux/compiler.h', needed by
'/path/to/out/tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/libsubcmd/exec-cmd.o'. Stop.
Now, the properly-fixdep'd .cmd files will ignore a missing
/path/to/linux-src2/...

kernel tracing infrastructure with CONFIG_FTRACE, the second reason
is that there is no root privileges.
Add the error string to tell the users what happened and what should
to do, and also call put_tracing_file() to free events_path a little
later to avoid messy code in the error message.
At the same time, just remove the redundant "/" of the file path in
the function get_tracing_file(), otherwise it shows something like
"/sys/kernel/tracing//events".

Currently, the perf tool infrastructure uses the disasm_line__parse
function to parse disassembled line.
Example snippet from objdump:
objdump --start-address=<address> --stop-address=<address> -d --no-show-raw-insn -C <vmlinux>
c0000000010224b4: lwz r10,0(r9)
This line "lwz r10,0(r9)" is parsed to extract instruction name,
registers names and offset.
In powerpc, the approach for data type profiling uses raw instruction
instead of result from objdump to identify the instruction category and
extract the source/target registers.
Example: 38 01 81 e8 ld r4,312(r1)
Here "38 01 81 e8" is the raw instruction representation. Add function
"disasm_line__parse_powerpc" to handle parsing of raw instruction.
Also update "struct disasm_line" to save the binary code/
With the change, function captures:
line -> "38 01 81 e8 ld r4,312(r1)"
raw instruction "38 01 81 e8"
Raw instruction is used later to extract the reg/offset fields. Macros
are added to extract opcode and register fields. "struct disasm_line"
is updated to carry union of "bytes" and "raw_insn" of 32 bit to carry raw
code (raw).
Function "disasm_line__parse_powerpc fills the raw instruction hex value
and can use macros to get opcode. There is no changes in existing code
paths, which parses the disassembled code. The size of raw instruction
depends on architecture.
In case of powerpc, the parsing the disasm line needs to handle cases
for reading binary code directly from DSO as well as parsing the objdump
result. Hence adding the logic into separate function instead of
updating "disasm_line__parse". The architecture using the instruction
name and present approach is not altered. Since this approach targets
powerpc, the macro implementation is added for powerpc as of now.
Since the disasm_line__parse is used in other cases (perf annotate) and
not only data tye profiling, the powerpc callback includes changes to
work with binary code as well as mnemonic representation.
Also in case if the DSO read fails and libcapstone is not supported, the
approach fallback to use objdump as option. Hence as option, patch has
changes to ensure objdump option also works well.

In struct bpf_struct_ops, we have take a pointer to a BTF type name, and
a struct btf_type. This was presumably done for convenience, but can
actually result in subtle and confusing bugs given that BTF data can be
invalidated before a program is loaded. For example, in sched_ext, we
may sometimes resize a data section after a skeleton has been opened,
but before the struct_ops scheduler map has been loaded. This may cause
the BTF data to be realloc'd, which can then cause a UAF when loading
the program because the struct_ops map has pointers directly into the
BTF data.
We're already storing the BTF type_id in struct bpf_struct_ops. Because
type_id is stable, we can therefore just update the places where we were
looking at those pointers to instead do the lookups we need from the
type_id.

----------

--fuzzy-name option allows the partial matching.

-1 will work as infinity but it didn't accept the value. Update the
code and document to use 0 instead.
* Fix perf sched timehist to account the delay time for preempted tasks.
Perf event filtering
--------------------
* perf top gained filtering support on regular events using BPF like
perf record. Previously it was able to use it for tracepoints only.
* The BPF filter now supports filtering by UID/GID. This should be
preferred than -u <UID> option as it's racy to scan /proc to check
tasks for the user and fails to open an event for the task if it's
already gone.
$ sudo perf top -e cycles --filter "uid == $(id -u)"
perf report
-----------
* Skip dummy events in the group output by default. The --skip-empty
option controls display of empty events without samples. But perf
report can force display all events in a group. In this case, auto-
added a dummy event (for a system-wide record) ends up in the output.
Now it can skip those empty events even in the group display mode.
To preserve the old behavior, run this:
$ perf report --group --no-skip-empty
perf stat
---------
* Choose the most disaggregate option when multiple aggregation options
are given. It used to pick the last option in the command line but
it can be confusing and not consistent. Now it'll choose the smallest
unit.
For example, it'd aggregate the result per-core when the user gave
both --per-socket and --per-core options at the same time.
Internals
---------
* Fix `perf bench` when some CPUs are offline.
* Fix handling of JIT symbol mappings to accept "/tmp/perf-${PID}.map
patterns only so that it can not be confused by other /tmp/perf-*
files.
* Many improvements and fixes for `perf test`.

------
* Support some new instructions for Intel-PT.
* Fix syscall ID mapping in perf trace.
* Document AMD IBS PMU usages.
* Change `perf lock info` to show map and thread info by default.

* Update Intel events and metrics

For all these years libbpf's BTF dumper has been emitting not strictly
valid syntax for function prototypes that have no input arguments.
Instead of `int (*blah)()` we should emit `int (*blah)(void)`.
This is not normally a problem, but it manifests when we get kfuncs in
vmlinux.h that have no input arguments. Due to compiler internal
specifics, we get no BTF information for such kfuncs, if they are not
declared with proper `(void)`.
The fix is trivial. We also need to adjust a few ancient tests that
happily assumed `()` is correct.

Improve how we handle old BPF skeletons when it comes to BPF map
auto-attachment. Emit one warn-level message per each struct_ops map
that could have been auto-attached, if user provided recent enough BPF
skeleton version. Don't spam log if there are no relevant struct_ops
maps, though.
This should help users realize that they probably need to regenerate BPF
skeleton header with more recent bpftool/libbpf-cargo (or whatever other
means of BPF skeleton generation).

BPF skeleton was designed from day one to be extensible. Generated BPF
skeleton code specifies actual sizes of map/prog/variable skeletons for
that reason and libbpf is supposed to work with newer/older versions
correctly.
Unfortunately, it was missed that we implicitly embed hard-coded most
up-to-date (according to libbpf's version of libbpf.h header used to
compile BPF skeleton header) sizes of those structs, which can differ
from the actual sizes at runtime when libbpf is used as a shared
library.
We have a few places were we just index array of maps/progs/vars, which
implicitly uses these potentially invalid sizes of structs.
This patch aims to fix this problem going forward. Once this lands,
we'll backport these changes in Github repo to create patched releases
for older libbpfs.

In the current state, an erroneous call to
bpf_object__find_map_by_name(NULL, ...) leads to a segmentation
fault through the following call chain:
bpf_object__find_map_by_name(obj = NULL, ...)
-> bpf_object__for_each_map(pos, obj = NULL)
-> bpf_object__next_map((obj = NULL), NULL)
-> return (obj = NULL)->maps
While calling bpf_object__find_map_by_name with obj = NULL is
obviously incorrect, this should not lead to a segmentation
fault but rather be handled gracefully.
As __bpf_map__iter already handles this situation correctly, we
can delegate the check for the regular case there and only add
a check in case the prev or next parameter is NULL.

Since cond_resched() is not called in userspace, remove the redundant code
in userspace's list_sort() implementation. This change eliminates the
unused 'count' variable and the associated logic for invoking cmp()
periodically, which was intended to trigger cond_resched() in kernel
space.
The removed code includes:
- Declaration and increment of the 'count' variable.
- Conditional invocation of cmp() based on 'count'.
This cleanup simplifies merge_final(), avoids unnecessary overhead, and
has no impact on the functionality of list_sort() in userspace.

When upgrading to libbpf 1.3 we noticed a big performance hit while
loading programs using CORE on non base-BTF symbols. This was tracked
down to the new BTF sanity check logic. The issue is the base BTF
definitions are checked first for the base BTF and then again for every
module BTF.
Loading 5 dummy programs (using libbpf-rs) that are using CORE on a
non-base BTF symbol on my system:
- Before this fix: 3s.
- With this fix: 0.1s.
Fix this by only checking the types starting at the BTF start id. This
should ensure the base BTF is still checked as expected but only once
(btf->start_id == 1 when creating the base BTF), and then only
additional types are checked for each module BTF.

Share relocation implementation with the kernel. As part of this,
we also need the type/string iteration functions so also share
btf_iter.c file. Relocation code in kernel and userspace is identical
save for the impementation of the reparenting of split BTF to the
relocated base BTF and retrieval of the BTF header from "struct btf";
these small functions need separate user-space and kernel implementations
for the separate "struct btf"s they operate upon.
One other wrinkle on the kernel side is we have to map .BTF.ids in
modules as they were generated with the type ids used at BTF encoding
time. btf_relocate() optionally returns an array mapping from old BTF
ids to relocated ids, so we use that to fix up these references where
needed for kfuncs.

Update btf_parse_elf() to check if .BTF.base section is present.
The logic is as follows:
if .BTF.base section exists:
distilled_base := btf_new(.BTF.base)
if distilled_base:
btf := btf_new(.BTF, .base_btf=distilled_base)
if base_btf:
btf_relocate(btf, base_btf)
else:
btf := btf_new(.BTF)
return btf
In other words:
- if .BTF.base section exists, load BTF from it and use it as a base
for .BTF load;
- if base_btf is specified and .BTF.base section exist, relocate newly
loaded .BTF against base_btf.

Map distilled base BTF type ids referenced in split BTF and their
references to the base BTF passed in, and if the mapping succeeds,
reparent the split BTF to the base BTF.
Relocation is done by first verifying that distilled base BTF
only consists of named INT, FLOAT, ENUM, FWD, STRUCT and
UNION kinds; then we sort these to speed lookups. Once sorted,
the base BTF is iterated, and for each relevant kind we check
for an equivalent in distilled base BTF. When found, the
mapping from distilled -> base BTF id and string offset is recorded.
In establishing mappings, we need to ensure we check STRUCT/UNION
size when the STRUCT/UNION is embedded in a split BTF STRUCT/UNION,
and when duplicate names exist for the same STRUCT/UNION. Otherwise
size is ignored in matching STRUCT/UNIONs.
Once all mappings are established, we can update type ids
and string offsets in split BTF and reparent it to the new base.

To support more robust split BTF, adding supplemental context for the
base BTF type ids that split BTF refers to is required. Without such
references, a simple shuffling of base BTF type ids (without any other
significant change) invalidates the split BTF. Here the attempt is made
to store additional context to make split BTF more robust.
This context comes in the form of distilled base BTF providing minimal
information (name and - in some cases - size) for base INTs, FLOATs,
STRUCTs, UNIONs, ENUMs and ENUM64s along with modified split BTF that
points at that base and contains any additional types needed (such as
TYPEDEF, PTR and anonymous STRUCT/UNION declarations). This
information constitutes the minimal BTF representation needed to
disambiguate or remove split BTF references to base BTF. The rules
are as follows:
- INT, FLOAT, FWD are recorded in full.
- if a named base BTF STRUCT or UNION is referred to from split BTF, it
will be encoded as a zero-member sized STRUCT/UNION (preserving
size for later relocation checks). Only base BTF STRUCT/UNIONs
that are either embedded in split BTF STRUCT/UNIONs or that have
multiple STRUCT/UNION instances of the same name will _need_ size
checks at relocation time, but as it is possible a different set of
types will be duplicates in the later to-be-resolved base BTF,
we preserve size information for all named STRUCT/UNIONs.
- if an ENUM[64] is named, a ENUM forward representation (an ENUM
with no values) of the same size is used.
- in all other cases, the type is added to the new split BTF.
Avoiding struct/union/enum/enum64 expansion is important to keep the
distilled base BTF representation to a minimum size.
When successful, new representations of the distilled base BTF and new
split BTF that refers to it are returned. Both need to be freed by the
caller.
So to take a simple example, with split BTF with a type referring
to "struct sk_buff", we will generate distilled base BTF with a
0-member STRUCT sk_buff of the appropriate size, and the split BTF
will refer to it instead.
Tools like pahole can utilize such split BTF to populate the .BTF
section (split BTF) and an additional .BTF.base section. Then
when the split BTF is loaded, the distilled base BTF can be used
to relocate split BTF to reference the current (and possibly changed)
base BTF.
So for example if "struct sk_buff" was id 502 when the split BTF was
originally generated, we can use the distilled base BTF to see that
id 502 refers to a "struct sk_buff" and replace instances of id 502
with the current (relocated) base BTF sk_buff type id.
Distilled base BTF is small; when building a kernel with all modules
using distilled base BTF as a test, overall module size grew by only
5.3Mb total across ~2700 modules.

Implement iterator-based type ID and string offset BTF field iterator.
This is used extensively in BTF-handling code and BPF linker code for
various sanity checks, rewriting IDs/offsets, etc. Currently this is
implemented as visitor pattern calling custom callbacks, which makes the
logic (especially in simple cases) unnecessarily obscure and harder to
follow.
Having equivalent functionality using iterator pattern makes for simpler
to understand and maintain code. As we add more code for BTF processing
logic in libbpf, it's best to switch to iterator pattern before adding
more callback-based code.
The idea for iterator-based implementation is to record offsets of
necessary fields within fixed btf_type parts (which should be iterated
just once), and, for kinds that have multiple members (based on vlen
field), record where in each member necessary fields are located.
Generic iteration code then just keeps track of last offset that was
returned and handles N members correctly. Return type is just u32
pointer, where NULL is returned when all relevant fields were already
iterated.

Make sure to preserve and/or enforce FD_CLOEXEC flag on duped FDs.
Use dup3() with O_CLOEXEC flag for that.
Without this fix libbpf effectively clears FD_CLOEXEC flag on each of BPF

In general a read fills 4kb so filling the buffer is a 1 in 4096
operation, move it out of the io__get_char function to avoid some
checking overhead and to better hint the function is good to inline.

Libbpf is automatically (and transparently to user) detecting
multi-uprobe support in the kernel, and, if supported, uses
multi-uprobes to improve USDT attachment speed.
USDTs can be attached system-wide or for the specific process by PID. In
the latter case, we rely on correct kernel logic of not triggering USDT
for unrelated processes.
As such, on older kernels that do support multi-uprobes, but still have
broken PID filtering logic, we need to fall back to singular uprobes.
Unfortunately, whether user is using PID filtering or not is known at
the attachment time, which happens after relevant BPF programs were
loaded into the kernel. Also unfortunately, we need to make a call
whether to use multi-uprobes or singular uprobe for SEC("usdt") programs
during BPF object load time, at which point we have no information about
possible PID filtering.
The distinction between single and multi-uprobes is small, but important
for the kernel. Multi-uprobes get BPF_TRACE_UPROBE_MULTI attach type,
and kernel internally substitiute different implementation of some of
BPF helpers (e.g., bpf_get_attach_cookie()) depending on whether uprobe
is multi or singular. So, multi-uprobes and singular uprobes cannot be
intermixed.
All the above implies that we have to make an early and conservative
call about the use of multi-uprobes. And so this patch modifies libbpf's
existing feature detector for multi-uprobe support to also check correct
PID filtering. If PID filtering is not yet fixed, we fall back to
singular uprobes for USDTs.
This extension to feature detection is simple thanks to kernel's -EINVAL
addition for pid < 0.

[Changes from V1:
- Use a default branch in the switch statement to initialize `val'.]
GCC warns that `val' may be used uninitialized in the
BPF_CRE_READ_BITFIELD macro, defined in bpf_core_read.h as:
[...]
unsigned long long val; \
[...] \
switch (__CORE_RELO(s, field, BYTE_SIZE)) { \
case 1: val = *(const unsigned char *)p; break; \
case 2: val = *(const unsigned short *)p; break; \
case 4: val = *(const unsigned int *)p; break; \
case 8: val = *(const unsigned long long *)p; break; \
} \
[...]
val; \
} \
This patch adds a default entry in the switch statement that sets
`val' to zero in order to avoid the warning, and random values to be
used in case __builtin_preserve_field_info returns unexpected values
for BPF_FIELD_BYTE_SIZE.
Tested in bpf-next master.

Extend libbpf's pre-load checks for BPF programs, detecting more typical
conditions that are destinated to cause BPF program failure. This is an
opportunity to provide more helpful and actionable error message to
users, instead of potentially very confusing BPF verifier log and/or
error.
In this case, we detect struct_ops BPF program that was not referenced
anywhere, but still attempted to be loaded (according to libbpf logic).
Suggest that the program might need to be used in some struct_ops
variable. User will get a message of the following kind:
libbpf: prog 'test_1_forgotten': SEC("struct_ops") program isn't referenced anywhere, did you forget to use it?

which happens when we pass some non-standard (internal) kernel error to
it. Before this patch we'd have "ERROR: strerror_r(524)=22", which is
quite confusing. Now for the same situation we'll see a bit less
visually scary "unknown error (-524)".

reference in STRUCT_OPS map to NULL, but libbpf will fail to disable

nulled-out program reference from user-space after opening BPF object.

libbpf ensures that BPF program references set in map->st_ops->progs[i]
during open phase are always valid STRUCT_OPS programs. This is done in
bpf_object__collect_st_ops_relos(). So there is no need to double-check
that in bpf_map__init_kern_struct_ops().
Simplify the code by removing unnecessary check. Also, we avoid using
local prog variable to keep code similar to the upcoming fix, which adds
similar logic in another part of bpf_map__init_kern_struct_ops().

[Differences from V1:
- Do not introduce a global typedef, as this is a public header.
- Keep the void* casts in BPF_KPROBE_READ_RET_IP and
BPF_KRETPROBE_READ_RET_IP, as these are necessary
for converting to a const void* argument of
bpf_probe_read_kernel.]
The BPF_PROG, BPF_KPROBE and BPF_KSYSCALL macros defined in
tools/lib/bpf/bpf_tracing.h use a clever hack in order to provide a
convenient way to define entry points for BPF programs as if they were
normal C functions that get typed actual arguments, instead of as
elements in a single "context" array argument.
For example, PPF_PROGS allows writing:
SEC("struct_ops/cwnd_event")
void BPF_PROG(cwnd_event, struct sock *sk, enum tcp_ca_event event)
{
bbr_cwnd_event(sk, event);
dctcp_cwnd_event(sk, event);
cubictcp_cwnd_event(sk, event);
}
That expands into a pair of functions:
void ____cwnd_event (unsigned long long *ctx, struct sock *sk, enum tcp_ca_event event)
{
bbr_cwnd_event(sk, event);
dctcp_cwnd_event(sk, event);
cubictcp_cwnd_event(sk, event);
}
void cwnd_event (unsigned long long *ctx)
{
_Pragma("GCC diagnostic push")
_Pragma("GCC diagnostic ignored \"-Wint-conversion\"")
return ____cwnd_event(ctx, (void*)ctx[0], (void*)ctx[1]);
_Pragma("GCC diagnostic pop")
}
Note how the 64-bit unsigned integers in the incoming CTX get casted
to a void pointer, and then implicitly converted to whatever type of
the actual argument in the wrapped function. In this case:
Arg1: unsigned long long -> void * -> struct sock *
Arg2: unsigned long long -> void * -> enum tcp_ca_event
The behavior of GCC and clang when facing such conversions differ:
pointer -> pointer
Allowed by the C standard.
GCC: no warning nor error.
clang: no warning nor error.
pointer -> integer type
[C standard says the result of this conversion is implementation
defined, and it may lead to unaligned pointer etc.]
GCC: error: integer from pointer without a cast [-Wint-conversion]
clang: error: incompatible pointer to integer conversion [-Wint-conversion]
pointer -> enumerated type
GCC: error: incompatible types in assigment (*)
clang: error: incompatible pointer to integer conversion [-Wint-conversion]
These macros work because converting pointers to pointers is allowed,
and converting pointers to integers also works provided a suitable
integer type even if it is implementation defined, much like casting a
pointer to uintptr_t is guaranteed to work by the C standard. The
conversion errors emitted by both compilers by default are silenced by
the pragmas.
However, the GCC error marked with (*) above when assigning a pointer
to an enumerated value is not associated with the -Wint-conversion
warning, and it is not possible to turn it off.
This is preventing building the BPF kernel selftests with GCC.
This patch fixes this by avoiding intermediate casts to void*,
replaced with casts to `unsigned long long', which is an integer type
capable of safely store a BPF pointer, much like the standard
uintptr_t.

The macro bpf_ksym_exists is defined in bpf_helpers.h as:
#define bpf_ksym_exists(sym) ({ \
_Static_assert(!__builtin_constant_p(!!sym), #sym " should be marked as __weak"); \
!!sym; \
})
The purpose of the macro is to determine whether a given symbol has
been defined, given the address of the object associated with the
symbol. It also has a compile-time check to make sure the object
whose address is passed to the macro has been declared as weak, which
makes the check on `sym' meaningful.
As it happens, the check for weak doesn't work in GCC in all cases,
because __builtin_constant_p not always folds at parse time when
optimizing. This is because optimizations that happen later in the
compilation process, like inlining, may make a previously non-constant
expression a constant. This results in errors like the following when
building the selftests with GCC:
bpf_helpers.h:190:24: error: expression in static assertion is not constant
190 | _Static_assert(!__builtin_constant_p(!!sym), #sym " should be marked as __weak"); \
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fortunately recent versions of GCC support a __builtin_has_attribute
that can be used to directly check for the __weak__ attribute. This
patch changes bpf_helpers.h to use that builtin when building with a
recent enough GCC, and to omit the check if GCC is too old to support
the builtin.
The macro used for GCC becomes:
#define bpf_ksym_exists(sym) ({ \
_Static_assert(__builtin_has_attribute (*sym, __weak__), #sym " should be marked as __weak"); \
!!sym; \
})
Note that since bpf_ksym_exists is designed to get the address of the
object associated with symbol SYM, we pass *sym to
__builtin_has_attribute instead of sym. When an expression is passed
to __builtin_has_attribute then it is the type of the passed
expression that is checked for the specified attribute. The
expression itself is not evaluated. This accommodates well with the
existing usages of the macro:
- For function objects:
struct task_struct *bpf_task_acquire(struct task_struct *p) __ksym __weak;
[...]
bpf_ksym_exists(bpf_task_acquire)
- For variable objects:
extern const struct rq runqueues __ksym __weak; /* typed */
[...]
bpf_ksym_exists(&runqueues)
Note also that BPF support was added in GCC 10 and support for
__builtin_has_attribute in GCC 9.
Locally tested in bpf-next master branch.

Previous attempt to fix the handling of nulled-out (from skeleton)
struct_ops program is working well only if struct_ops program is defined
as non-autoloaded by default (i.e., has SEC("?struct_ops") annotation,
with question mark).
Unfortunately, that fix is incomplete due to how
bpf_object_adjust_struct_ops_autoload() is marking referenced or
non-referenced struct_ops program as autoloaded (or not). Because
bpf_object_adjust_struct_ops_autoload() is run after
bpf_map__init_kern_struct_ops() step, which sets program slot to NULL,
such programs won't be considered "referenced", and so its autoload
property won't be changed.
This all sounds convoluted and it is, but the desire is to have as
natural behavior (as far as struct_ops usage is concerned) as possible.
This fix is redoing the original fix but makes it work for
autoloaded-by-default struct_ops programs as well. We achieve this by
forcing prog->autoload to false if prog was declaratively set for some
struct_ops map, but then nulled-out from skeleton (programmatically).
This achieves desired effect of not autoloading it. If such program is
still referenced somewhere else (different struct_ops map or different
callback field), it will get its autoload property adjusted by
bpf_object_adjust_struct_ops_autoload() later.
We also fix selftest, which accidentally used SEC("?struct_ops")
annotation. It was meant to use autoload-by-default program from the
very beginning.

In some situations, it is useful to explicitly specify a kernel module
to search for a tracing program target (e.g. when a function of the same
name exists in multiple modules or in vmlinux).
This patch enables that by allowing the "module:function" syntax for the
find_kernel_btf_id function. Thanks to this, the syntax can be used both
from a SEC macro (i.e. `SEC(fentry/module:function)`) and via the
bpf_program__set_attach_target API call.

If struct_ops has one of program callbacks set declaratively and host
kernel is old and doesn't support this callback, libbpf will allow to
load such struct_ops as long as that callback was explicitly nulled-out
(presumably through skeleton). This is all working correctly, except we
won't reset corresponding program slot to NULL before bailing out, which
will lead to libbpf not detecting that BPF program has to be not
auto-loaded. Fix this by unconditionally resetting corresponding program
slot to NULL.

The tools/lib/rbtree.c code came from the kernel, removing the
EXPORT_SYMBOL() that make sense only there, unfortunately it is not
being checked with tools/perf/check_headers.sh, will try to remedy this,
till then pick the improvements from:
b0687c1119 ("lib/rbtree: use '+' instead of '|' for setting color.")
That I noticed by doing:
diff -u tools/lib/rbtree.c lib/rbtree.c
diff -u tools/include/linux/rbtree_augmented.h include/linux/rbtree_augmented.h
There is one other cases, but lets pick it in separate patches.

The definition of bpf_tail_call_static in tools/lib/bpf/bpf_helpers.h
is guarded by a preprocessor check to assure that clang is recent
enough to support it. This patch updates the guard so the function is
compiled when using GCC 13 or later as well.
Tested in bpf-next master. No regressions.

When dumping a character array, libbpf will watch for a '\0' and set
is_array_terminated=true if found. This prevents libbpf from printing
the remaining characters of the array, treating it as a nul-terminated
string.
However, once this flag is set, it's never reset, leading to subsequent
characters array not being printed properly:
.str_multi = (__u8[2][16])[
[
'H',
'e',
'l',
],
],
This patch saves the is_array_terminated flag and restores its
default (false) value before looping over the elements of an array,
then restores it afterward. This way, libbpf's behavior is unchanged
when dumping the characters of an array, but subsequent arrays are
printed properly:
.str_multi = (__u8[2][16])[
[
'H',
'e',
'l',
],
[
'l',
'o',
],
],

In btf_dump_array_data(), libbpf will call btf_dump_dump_type_data() for
each element. For an array of characters, each element will be
processed the following way:
- btf_dump_dump_type_data() is called to print the character
- btf_dump_data_pfx() prefixes the current line with the proper number
of indentations
- btf_dump_int_data() is called to print the character
- After the last character is printed, btf_dump_dump_type_data() calls
btf_dump_data_pfx() before writing the closing bracket
However, for an array containing characters, btf_dump_int_data() won't
print any '\0' and subsequent characters. This leads to situations where
the line prefix is written, no character is added, then the prefix is
written again before adding the closing bracket:
(struct sk_metadata){
.str_array = (__u8[14])[
'H',
'e',
'l',
'l',
'o',
],
This change solves this issue by printing the '\0' character, which
has two benefits:
- The bracket closing the array is properly aligned
- It's clear from a user point of view that libbpf uses '\0' as a
terminator for arrays of characters.

Add non-blocking function to check if a 'struct child_process' has
completed. If the process has completed the exit code is stored in the
'struct child_process' so that finish_command() returns it.

In some cases, instead of always consuming all items from ring buffers
in a greedy way, we may want to consume up to a certain amount of items,
for example when we need to copy items from the BPF ring buffer to a
limited user buffer.
This change allows to set an upper limit to the amount of items consumed
from one or more ring buffers.
