Since 66dfdff03d ("perf tools: Add Python 3 support") we don't use
the tools/build/feature/test-libpython-version.c version in any Makefile
feature check:
$ find tools/ -type f | xargs grep feature-libpython-version
$
The only place where this was used was removed in 66dfdff03d:
- ifneq ($(feature-libpython-version), 1)
- $(warning Python 3 is not yet supported; please set)
- $(warning PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG appropriately.)
- $(warning If you also have Python 2 installed, then)
- $(warning try something like:)
- $(warning $(and ,))
- $(warning $(and ,) make PYTHON=python2)
- $(warning $(and ,))
- $(warning Otherwise, disable Python support entirely:)
- $(warning $(and ,))
- $(warning $(and ,) make NO_LIBPYTHON=1)
- $(warning $(and ,))
- $(error $(and ,))
- else
- LDFLAGS += $(PYTHON_EMBED_LDFLAGS)
- EXTLIBS += $(PYTHON_EMBED_LIBADD)
- LANG_BINDINGS += $(obj-perf)python/perf.so
- $(call detected,CONFIG_LIBPYTHON)
- endif
And nowadays we either build with PYTHON=python3 or just install the
python3 devel packages and perf will build against it.
But the leftover feature-libpython-version check made the fast path
feature detection to break in all cases except when python2 devel files
were installed:
$ rpm -qa | grep python.*devel
python3-devel-3.9.7-1.fc34.x86_64
$ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ;
$ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
make: Entering directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'

$ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep python
libpython3.9.so.1.0 => /lib64/libpython3.9.so.1.0 (0x00007fda6dbcf000)
$
As python3 is the norm these days, fix this by just removing the unused
feature-libpython-version feature check, making the test-all fast path
to work with the common case.
With this:
$ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ;
$ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin |& head

Pull perf tool updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
"New features:
- Support instruction latency in 'perf report', with both memory
latency (weight) and instruction latency information, users can
locate expensive load instructions and understand time spent in
different stages.
- Extend 'perf c2c' to display the number of loads which were blocked
by data or address conflict.
- Add 'perf stat' support for L2 topdown events in systems such as
Intel's Sapphire rapids server.
- Add support for PERF_SAMPLE_CODE_PAGE_SIZE in various tools, as a
sort key, for instance:
perf report --stdio --sort=comm,symbol,code_page_size
- New 'perf daemon' command to run long running sessions while
providing a way to control the enablement of events without
restarting a traditional 'perf record' session.
- Enable counting events for BPF programs in 'perf stat' just like
for other targets (tid, cgroup, cpu, etc), e.g.:
# perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles -b 254 -I 1000
1.487903822 115,200 ref-cycles
1.487903822 86,012 cycles
2.489147029 80,560 ref-cycles
2.489147029 73,784 cycles
^C
The example above counts 'cycles' and 'ref-cycles' of BPF program
of id 254. It is similar to bpftool-prog-profile command, but more
flexible.
- Support the new layout for PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 to carry the DSO
build-id using infrastructure generalised from the eBPF subsystem,
removing the need for traversing the perf.data file to collect
build-ids at the end of 'perf record' sessions and helping with
long running sessions where binaries can get replaced in updates,
leading to possible mis-resolution of symbols.
- Support filtering by hex address in 'perf script'.
- Support DSO filter in 'perf script', like in other perf tools.
- Add namespaces support to 'perf inject'
- Add support for SDT (Dtrace Style Markers) events on ARM64.
perf record:
- Fix handling of eventfd() when draining a buffer in 'perf record'.
- Improvements to the generation of metadata events for pre-existing
threads (mmaps, comm, etc), speeding up the work done at the start
of system wide or per CPU 'perf record' sessions.
Hardware tracing:
- Initial support for tracing KVM with Intel PT.
- Intel PT fixes for IPC
- Support Intel PT PSB (synchronization packets) events.
- Automatically group aux-output events to overcome --filter syntax.
- Enable PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_SRC on ARMs SPE.
- Update ARM's CoreSight hardware tracing OpenCSD library to v1.0.0.
perf annotate TUI:
- Fix handling of 'k' ("show line number") hotkey
- Fix jump parsing for C++ code.
perf probe:
- Add protection to avoid endless loop.
cgroups:
- Avoid reading cgroup mountpoint multiple times, caching it.
- Fix handling of cgroup v1/v2 in mixed hierarchy.
Symbol resolving:
- Add OCaml symbol demangling.
- Further fixes for handling PE executables when using perf with Wine
and .exe/.dll files.
- Fix 'perf unwind' DSO handling.
- Resolve symbols against debug file first, to deal with artifacts
related to LTO.
- Fix gap between kernel end and module start on powerpc.
Reporting tools:
- The DSO filter shouldn't show samples in unresolved maps.
- Improve debuginfod support in various tools.
build ids:
- Fix 16-byte build ids in 'perf buildid-cache', add a 'perf test'
entry for that case.
perf test:
- Support for PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT.
- Add test case for PERF_SAMPLE_CODE_PAGE_SIZE.
- Shell based tests for 'perf daemon's commands ('start', 'stop,
'reconfig', 'list', etc).
- ARM cs-etm 'perf test' fixes.
- Add parse-metric memory bandwidth testcase.
Compiler related:
- Fix 'perf probe' kretprobe issue caused by gcc 11 bug when used
with -fpatchable-function-entry.
- Fix ARM64 build with gcc 11's -Wformat-overflow.
- Fix unaligned access in sample parsing test.
- Fix printf conversion specifier for IP addresses on arm64, s390 and
powerpc.
Arch specific:
- Support exposing Performance Monitor Counter SPRs as part of
extended regs on powerpc.
- Add JSON 'perf stat' metrics for ARM64's imx8mp, imx8mq and imx8mn
DDR, fix imx8mm ones.
- Fix common and uarch events for ARM64's A76 and Ampere eMag"

When dealing with BPF/BTF/pahole and DWARF v5 I wanted to build bpftool.
While looking into the source code I found duplicate assignments in misc tools
for the LLVM eco system, e.g. clang and llvm-objcopy.
Move the Clang, LLC and/or LLVM utils definitions to tools/scripts/Makefile.include
file and add missing includes where needed. Honestly, I was inspired by the commit
c8a950d0d3 ("tools: Factor HOSTCC, HOSTLD, HOSTAR definitions").
I tested with bpftool and perf on Debian/testing AMD64 and LLVM/Clang v11.1.0-rc1.
Build instructions:
[ make and make-options ]
MAKE="make V=1"
MAKE_OPTS="HOSTCC=clang HOSTCXX=clang++ HOSTLD=ld.lld CC=clang LD=ld.lld LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1"
MAKE_OPTS="$MAKE_OPTS PAHOLE=/opt/pahole/bin/pahole"
[ clean-up ]
$MAKE $MAKE_OPTS -C tools/ clean
[ bpftool ]
$MAKE $MAKE_OPTS -C tools/bpf/bpftool/
[ perf ]
PYTHON=python3 $MAKE $MAKE_OPTS -C tools/perf/
I was careful with respecting the user's wish to override custom compiler, linker,
GNU/binutils and/or LLVM utils settings.

We were failing that due to GTK2+ and then for the ZSTD test, which made
test-all.c, the fast path feature detection file to fail and thus
trigger building all of the feature tests, slowing down the test.
Eventually the ZSTD test would be built and would succeed, since it had
the needed -lzstd, avoiding:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccRRJQ4u.o: in function `main_test_libzstd':
/home/acme/git/perf/tools/build/feature/test-libzstd.c:8: undefined reference to `ZSTD_createCStream'
/usr/bin/ld: /home/acme/git/perf/tools/build/feature/test-libzstd.c:9: undefined reference to `ZSTD_freeCStream'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
$
Fix it by adding -lzstd to the test-all target.
Now I need an entry to 'perf test' to make sure that
/tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output is empty...

It's trivial to handle missing ELF_C_MMAP_READ support in libelf the way that
objtool has solved it in
("774bec3fddcc objtool: Add fallback from ELF_C_READ_MMAP to ELF_C_READ").
So instead of having an entire feature detector for that, just do what objtool
does for perf and libbpf. And keep their Makefiles a bit simpler.

conditional (?=) so that they wouldn't clobber values from the
environment. However, conditional assignment does not work properly for
variables that Make implicitly sets, among which are CC and CXX. To
quote tools/scripts/Makefile.include, which handles this properly:
# Makefiles suck: This macro sets a default value of $(2) for the
# variable named by $(1), unless the variable has been set by
# environment or command line. This is necessary for CC and AR
# because make sets default values, so the simpler ?= approach
# won't work as expected.
In other words, the conditional assignments will not run even if the
variables are not overridden in the environment; Make will set CC to
"cc" and CXX to "g++" when it starts[1], meaning the variables are not
empty by the time the conditional assignments are evaluated. This breaks
cross-compilation when CROSS_COMPILE is set but CC isn't, since "cc"
gets used for feature detection instead of the cross compiler (and
likewise for CXX).
To fix the issue, just pass down the values of CC and CXX computed by
the parent Makefile, which gets included by the Makefile that actually
builds whatever we're detecting features for and so is guaranteed to
have good values. This is a better solution anyway, since it means we
aren't trying to replicate the logic of the parent build system and so
don't risk it getting out of sync.
Leave PKG_CONFIG alone, since 1) there's no common logic to compute it
in Makefile.include, and 2) it's not an implicit variable, so
conditional assignment works properly.

Adapt Makefile to support BPF skeleton generation beyond single profiler.bpf.c
case. Also add vmlinux.h generation and switch profiler.bpf.c to use it.
clang-bpf-global-var feature is extended and renamed to clang-bpf-co-re to
check for support of preserve_access_index attribute, which, together with BTF
for global variables, is the minimum requirement for modern BPF programs.

Ingo reported that the libaudit was always appearing as OFF:
Auto-detecting system features:
... dwarf: [ on ]
... dwarf_getlocations: [ on ]
... glibc: [ on ]
... gtk2: [ on ]
... libaudit: [ OFF ]
And everything seemed to work, i.e. we were checking for a feature that
we don't use, causing confusion for people building perf, so work to
remove that nuisance while making sure that it works when an arch
doesn't provide the alternative method to generate the syscall id/name
conversion tables.
Longer explanation of the new modus operandi:
$ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf NO_SYSCALL_TABLE=1
<SNIP>
Auto-detecting system features:
... dwarf: [ on ]
... dwarf_getlocations: [ on ]
... glibc: [ on ]
... gtk2: [ on ]
... libbfd: [ on ]
... libcap: [ on ]
... libelf: [ on ]
... libnuma: [ on ]
... numa_num_possible_cpus: [ on ]
... libperl: [ on ]
... libpython: [ on ]
... libcrypto: [ on ]
... libunwind: [ on ]
... libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on ]
... zlib: [ on ]
... lzma: [ on ]
... get_cpuid: [ on ]
... bpf: [ on ]
... libaio: [ on ]
... libzstd: [ on ]
... disassembler-four-args: [ on ]
Makefile.config:665: No libaudit.h found, disables 'trace' tool, please install audit-libs-devel or libaudit-dev
GEN /tmp/build/perf/common-cmds.h
MKDIR /tmp/build/perf/fd/
MKDIR /tmp/build/perf/fs/
<SNIP>
$
The libaudit test is forced and it fails when audit-libs-devel isn't available:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libaudit.make.output
test-libaudit.c:2:10: fatal error: libaudit.h: No such file or directory
2 | #include <libaudit.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
$
If we install audit-libs-devel and rebuild it continues not to be shown as OFF
in the main auto-detection summary, but again gets tested and this time:
$ rpm -q audit-libs-devel
audit-libs-devel-3.0-0.15.20191104git1c2f876.fc31.x86_64
$
The make output for the feature detection comes clean:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libaudit.make.output
And the feature detection binary is successfully built and is dynamicly linked
with libaudit:
$ ldd /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libaudit.bin | grep audit
libaudit.so.1 => /lib64/libaudit.so.1 (0x00007f5bf5177000)
$
As well as the resulting perf binary:
$ ldd /tmp/build/perf/perf | grep audit
libaudit.so.1 => /lib64/libaudit.so.1 (0x00007fad511c7000)
$
And 'perf trace' works using the libaudit method:
$ sudo /tmp/build/perf/perf trace -e nanosleep sleep 1
0.000 (1000.067 ms): sleep/281872 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffedbbe69d0) = 0
$
If we leave audit-libs-devel installed but don't disable the use of the best
method, the one using SYSCALL_TABLE, the default for architectures that provide
the script to build the syscall id/name mapping using the .tbl files copied
from the kernel sources, we get:
$ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf
$ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf
Auto-detecting system features:

$
Again, no mention of libaudit being on or OFF and:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libaudit.make.output
cat: /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libaudit.make.output: No such file or directory
$
We didn't even bother checking for its availability, slightly speeding up the
build process and:
$ ldd /tmp/build/perf/perf | grep libaudit
$
We don't link with it, also:
$ sudo /tmp/build/perf/perf trace -e nanosleep sleep 1
0.000 (1000.053 ms): sleep/299125 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffc24611b50) = 0
$
And globs become available:
$ sudo /tmp/build/perf/perf trace -e *sleep sleep 1
0.000 (1000.072 ms): sleep/299136 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffe7a3c4ff0) = 0
