perf_event__process_feature() accesses feat_ops[HEADER_LAST_FEATURE]
which is not defined and thus perf is crashing. HEADER_LAST_FEATURE is
used as an end marker for the perf report but it's unused for perf

Using perf on 4.16.0 kernel on s390 shows this warning:
failed: can't open node sysfs data
each time I run command perf record ... for example:
[root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf record -e rB0000 -- sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
failed: can't open node sysfs data
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data (4 samples) ]
[root@s35lp76 perf]#
It turns out commit e2091cedd5 ("perf tools: Add MEM_TOPOLOGY feature
to perf data file") tries to open directory named /sys/devices/system/node/
which does not exist on s390.
This is the call stack:
__cmd_record
+---> perf_session__write_header
+---> perf_header__adds_write
+---> do_write_feat
+---> write_mem_topology
+---> build_mem_topology
prints warning
The issue starts in do_write_feat() which unconditionally loops over all
features and now includes HEADER_MEM_TOPOLOGY and calls write_mem_topology().
Function record__init_features() at the beginning of __cmd_record() sets
all features and then turns off some of them.
Fix this by changing the warning to a level 2 debug output statement.
So it is only shown when debug level 2 or higher is set.

report does not force the group output. The reason is that we don't
force the leader in pipe mode.
This patch adds HEADER_LAST_FEATURE mark to have a point where we have
all events and features received, and force the group if requested.

Adding MEM_TOPOLOGY feature to perf data file,
that will carry physical memory map and its
node assignments.
The format of data in MEM_TOPOLOGY is as follows:
0 - version | for future changes
8 - block_size_bytes | /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes
16 - count | number of nodes
For each node we store map of physical indexes for
each node:
32 - node id | node index
40 - size | size of bitmap
48 - bitmap | bitmap of memory indexes that belongs to node
| /sys/devices/system/node/node<NODE>/memory<INDEX>
The MEM_TOPOLOGY could be displayed with following
report command:
$ perf report --header-only -I
...
# memory nodes (nr 1, block size 0x8000000):
# 0 [7G]: 0-23,32-69

[ Rename 'index' to 'idx', as this breaks the build in rhel5, 6 and other systems where this is used by glibc headers ]
Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
perf report/script/... have a --time option to limit the time range of
output. That's very useful to slice large traces, e.g. when processing
the output of perf script for some analysis.
But right now --time only supports absolute time. Also there is no fast
way to get the start/end times of a given trace except for looking at
it. This makes it hard to e.g. only decode the first half of the trace,
which is useful for parallelization of scripts
Another problem is that perf records are variable size and there is no
synchronization mechanism. So the only way to find the last sample
reliably would be to walk all samples. But we want to avoid that in perf
report/... because it is already quite expensive. That is why storing
the first sample time and last sample time in perf record is better.
This patch creates a new header feature type HEADER_SAMPLE_TIME and
related ops. Save the first sample time and the last sample time to the
feature section in perf file header. That will be done when, for
instance, processing build-ids, where we already have to process all
samples to create the build-id table, take advantage of that to further
amortize that processing by storing HEADER_SAMPLE_TIME to make 'perf
report/script' faster when using --time.
Committer testing:
After this patch is applied the header is written with zeroes, we need
the next patch, for "perf record" to actually write the timestamps:
# perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE\(
22501155244406 0x44f0 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 25016/25016: 0xffffffffa21be8c5 period: 1 addr: 0
<SNIP>
22501155793625 0x4a30 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4001): 25016/25016: 0xffffffffa21ffd50 period: 2828043 addr: 0
# perf report --header | grep "time of "
# time of first sample : 0.000000
# time of last sample : 0.000000
#
Changelog:
v7: 1. Rebase to latest perf/core branch.
2. Add following clarification in patch description according to
Arnaldo's suggestion.
"That will be done when, for instance, processing build-ids,
where we already have to process all samples to create the
build-id table, take advantage of that to further amortize
that processing by storing HEADER_SAMPLE_TIME to make

v4: Use perf script time style for timestamp printing. Also add with
the printing of sample duration.
v3: Remove the definitions of first_sample_time/last_sample_time from
perf_session. Just define them in perf_evlist

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

There are three FEAT_OP* macros:
- FEAT_OPA: for features without process record.
- FEAT_OPP: for features with process record.
- FEAT_OPF: like FEAT_OPP but to show only if show_full_info flags
is set.
To add pipe-mode headers we need yet another variation of the macros
(one to specify whether a feature generates an auxiliar record).
Instead, we redefine macros so that:
- show_full_info is specified as an argument (to remove the
FEAT_OPF variation) and,
- it always sets "process" handler (to remove the FEAT_OPA variation).
Individual process handlers can be NULLed individually.
This allows to define two variations only:
- FEAT_OPR: synthesizes auxiliar event record.
- FEAT_OPN: doesn't synthesize an auxiliar event record.
