perf beauty: Introduce scrape script for various fs syscalls 'flags' arguments

It was using the first variation on producing a string representation
for a binary flag, one that used the system's fcntl.h and preprocessor
tricks that had to be updated everytime a new flag was introduced.

Use the more recent scrape script + strarray + strarray__scnprintf_flags() combo.

$ tools/perf/trace/beauty/fs_at_flags.sh
static const char *fs_at_flags[] = {
[ilog2(0x100) + 1] = "SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW",
[ilog2(0x200) + 1] = "REMOVEDIR",
[ilog2(0x400) + 1] = "SYMLINK_FOLLOW",
[ilog2(0x800) + 1] = "NO_AUTOMOUNT",
[ilog2(0x1000) + 1] = "EMPTY_PATH",
[ilog2(0x0000) + 1] = "STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT",
[ilog2(0x2000) + 1] = "STATX_FORCE_SYNC",
[ilog2(0x4000) + 1] = "STATX_DONT_SYNC",
[ilog2(0x8000) + 1] = "RECURSIVE",
[ilog2(0x80000000) + 1] = "GETATTR_NOSEC",
};
$

Now we need a copy of uapi/linux/fcntl.h from tools/include/ in the
scrape only directory tools/perf/trace/beauty/include and will use that
fs_at_flags array for other fs syscalls.

perf trace: Beautify 'sync_file_range' arguments

Use existing beautifiers for the first arg, fd, assigned using the
heuristic that looks for syscall arg names and associates SCA_FD with
'fd' named argumes, and wire up the recently introduced sync_file_range
flags table generator.

Now it should be possible to just use:

perf trace -e sync_file_range

As root and see all sync_file_range syscalls with its args beautified.

Doing a syscall strace like session looking for this syscall, then run
postgresql's initdb command:

perf trace: Beautify 'move_mount' arguments

Use existing beautifiers for the first 4 args (to/from fds, pathnames)
and wire up the recently introduced move_mount flags table generator.

Now it should be possible to just use:

perf trace -e move_mount

As root and see all move_mount syscalls with its args beautified, except
for the filenames, that need work in the augmented_raw_syscalls.c eBPF
helper to pass more than one, see comment in the
augmented_raw_syscalls.c source code, the other args should work in all
cases, i.e. all that is needed can be obtained directly from the
raw_syscalls:sys_enter tracepoint args.

Running without the strace "skin" (.perfconfig setting output formatting
switches to look like strace output + BPF to collect strings, as we
still need to support collecting multiple string args for the same
syscall, like with move_mount):

# cat sys_move_mount.c
#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h> /* For SYS_xxx definitions */

#define __NR_move_mount 429

perf trace beauty: Beautify arch_prctl()'s arguments

This actually so far, AFAIK is available only in x86, so the code was
put in place with x86 prefixes, in arches where it is not available it
will just not be called, so no further mechanisms are needed at this
time.

Later, when other arches wire this up, we'll just look at the uname
(live sessions) or perf_env data in the perf.data header to auto-wire
the right beautifier.

With this the output is the same as produced by 'strace' when used with
the following ~/.perfconfig:

# cat ~/.perfconfig
[llvm]
dump-obj = true
[trace]
add_events = /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
show_zeros = yes
show_duration = no
no_inherit = yes
show_timestamp = no
show_arg_names = no
args_alignment = -40
show_prefix = yes
#

And, on fedora 29, since the string tables are generated from the kernel
sources, we don't know about 0x3001, just like strace:

--- /tmp/strace 2018-12-17 11:22:08.707586721 -0300
+++ /tmp/trace 2018-12-18 11:11:32.037512729 -0300
@@ -1,49 +1,49 @@
-arch_prctl(0x3001 /* ARCH_??? */, 0x7ffc8a92dc80) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
+arch_prctl(0x3001 /* ARCH_??? */, 0x7ffe4eb93ae0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
-arch_prctl(ARCH_SET_FS, 0x7faf6700f540) = 0
+arch_prctl(ARCH_SET_FS, 0x7fb507364540) = 0

And that seems to be related to the CET/Shadow Stack feature, that
userland in Fedora 29 (glibc 2.28) are querying the kernel about, that
0x3001 seems to be ARCH_CET_STATUS, I'll check the situation and test
with a fedora 29 kernel to see if the other codes are used.

A diff that ignores the different pointers for different runs needs to
be put in place in the upcoming regression tests comparing 'perf trace's
output to strace's.

This is still just augmenting the syscalls:sys_enter_connect part, later
we'll wire this up to augment the enter+exit combo, like in the
tradicional 'perf trace' and 'strace' outputs.

perf trace beauty kcmp: Beautify arguments

For some unknown reason there is no entry in tracefs's syscalls for
kcmp, i.e. no tracefs/events/syscalls/sys_{enter,exit}_kcmp, so we need
to provide a data dictionary for the fields.

To beautify the 'type' argument we automatically generate a strarray
from tools/include/uapi/kcmp.h, the idx1 and idx2 args, nowadays used
only if type == KCMP_FILE, are masked for all the other types and a
lookup is made for the thread and fd to show the path, if possible,
getting it from the probe:vfs_getname if in place or from procfs, races
allowing.

A system wide strace like tracing session, with callchains shows just
one user so far in this fedora 25 machine:

# perf trace --max-stack 5 -e kcmp
<SNIP>
1502914.400 ( 0.001 ms): systemd/1 kcmp(pid1: 1 (systemd), pid2: 1 (systemd), type: FILE, idx1: 271<socket:[4723475]>, idx2: 25<socket:[4788686]>) = -1 ENOSYS Function not implemented
syscall (/usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
same_fd (/usr/lib/systemd/libsystemd-shared-233.so)
service_add_fd_store (/usr/lib/systemd/systemd)
service_notify_message.lto_priv.127 (/usr/lib/systemd/systemd)
1502914.407 ( 0.001 ms): systemd/1 kcmp(pid1: 1 (systemd), pid2: 1 (systemd), type: FILE, idx1: 270<socket:[4726396]>, idx2: 25<socket:[4788686]>) = -1 ENOSYS Function not implemented
syscall (/usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)

service_add_fd_store (/usr/lib/systemd/systemd)
service_notify_message.lto_priv.127 (/usr/lib/systemd/systemd)
<SNIP>

The backtraces seem to agree this is really kcmp(), but this system
doesn't have the sys_kcmp(), bummer:

# uname -a
Linux jouet 4.14.0-rc3+ #1 SMP Fri Oct 13 12:21:12 -03 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

ffffffffb60b8890 W sys_kcmp
$ grep CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE ../build/v4.14.0-rc3+/.config
# CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is not set
$

So systemd uses it, good fedora kernel config has it:

$ grep CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE /boot/config-4.13.4-200.fc26.x86_64
CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE=y
[acme@jouet linux]$

perf trace beauty prctl: Generate 'option' string table from kernel headers

This is one more case where the way that syscall parameter values are
defined in kernel headers are easy to parse using a shell script that
will then generate the string table that gets used by the prctl 'option'
argument beautifier.

This way as soon as the header syncronization mechanism in perf's build
system detects a change in a copy of a kernel ABI header and that file
is syncronized, we get 'perf trace' updated automagically.

Further work needed for the PR_SET_ values, as well for using eBPF to
copy the non-integer arguments to/from the kernel.

E.g.: System wide prctl tracing:

perf trace beauty: Beautify pkey_{alloc,free,mprotect} arguments

Reuse 'mprotect' beautifiers for 'pkey_mprotect'.

System wide tracing pkey_alloc, pkey_free and pkey_mprotect calls, with
backtraces:

# perf trace -e pkey_alloc,pkey_mprotect,pkey_free --max-stack=5
0.000 ( 0.011 ms): pkey/7818 pkey_alloc(init_val: DISABLE_ACCESS|DISABLE_WRITE) = -1 EINVAL Invalid argument
syscall (/usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
pkey_alloc (/home/acme/c/pkey)
0.022 ( 0.003 ms): pkey/7818 pkey_mprotect(start: 0x7f28c3890000, len: 4096, prot: READ|WRITE, pkey: -1) = 0
syscall (/usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
pkey_mprotect (/home/acme/c/pkey)
0.030 ( 0.002 ms): pkey/7818 pkey_free(pkey: -1 ) = -1 EINVAL Invalid argument
syscall (/usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
pkey_free (/home/acme/c/pkey)

The tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h file is used to find
the access rights defines for the pkey_alloc syscall second argument.

Since we have the detector of changes for the tools/include header files
versus its kernel origin (include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h), we'll
get whatever new flag appears for that argument automatically.

This method should be used in other cases where it is easy to generate
those flags tables because the header has properly namespaced defines
like PKEY_DISABLE_ACCESS and PKEY_DISABLE_WRITE.

perf trace beauty ioctl: Improve 'cmd' beautifier

By using the _IOC_(DIR,NR,TYPE,SIZE) macros to lookup a 'type' keyed
table that then gets indexed by 'nr', falling back to a notation similar
to the one used by 'strace', only more compact, i.e.:

474.356 ( 0.007 ms): gnome-shell/22401 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: (READ|WRITE, 0x64, 0xae, 0x1c), arg: 0x7ffc934f7880) = 0
474.369 ( 0.053 ms): gnome-shell/22401 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: (READ|WRITE, 0x64, 0xb0, 0x18), arg: 0x7ffc934f77d0) = 0
505.055 ( 0.014 ms): gnome-shell/22401 ioctl(fd: 8</dev/dri/card0>, cmd: (READ|WRITE, 0x64, 0xaf, 0x4), arg: 0x7ffc934f741c) = 0

This also moves it out of builtin-trace.c and into trace/beauty/ioctl.c
to better compartimentalize all these formatters.

Need to improve the formatting of the second return, to the child, this
cset only focused on the argument formatting.

^C#

We'll also have to fix the argument ordering in different arches,
probably having multiple syscall_fmt entries with each possible order
and then use perf_evsel__env_arch() (if dealing with a perf.data file)
or the current system info, for live sessions.

perf trace: Beautify statx syscall 'flag' and 'mask' arguments

To test it, build samples/statx/test_statx, which I did as:

$ make headers_install
$ cc -I ~/git/linux/usr/include samples/statx/t

perf trace: Beautify statx syscall 'flag' and 'mask' arguments

To test it, build samples/statx/test_statx, which I did as:

$ make headers_install
$ cc -I ~/git/linux/usr/include samples/statx/test-statx.c -o /tmp/statx

And then use perf trace on it:

# perf trace -e statx /tmp/statx /etc/passwd
statx(/etc/passwd) = 0

#

Adding a probe to get the filename collected as well:

# perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=result->name:string'
Added new event:
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=result->name:string)

You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1

# trace --no-inherit -e statx /tmp/statx -D -O /etc/passwd > /dev/null
0.169 ( 0.007 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/passwd, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_DONT_SYNC, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffda9bf50f0) = 0
#

Same technique could be used to collect and beautify the result put in
the 'buffer' argument.

Finally do a system wide 'perf trace' session looking for any use of statx,
then run the test proggie with various flags:

# trace -e statx
16612.967 ( 0.028 ms): statx/4562 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffef195d660) = 0
33064.447 ( 0.011 ms): statx/4569 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_FORCE_SYNC, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffc5484c790) = 0
36050.891 ( 0.023 ms): statx/4576 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffeb18b66e0) = 0
38039.889 ( 0.023 ms): statx/4584 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7fff1db0ea90) = 0
^C#

This one also starts moving the beautifiers from files directly included
in builtin-trace.c to separate objects + a beauty.h header with
prototypes, so that we can add test cases in tools/perf/tests/ to fire
syscalls with various arguments and then get them intercepted as
syscalls:sys_enter_foo or raw_syscalls:sys_enter + sys_exit to then
format and check that the formatted output is the one we expect.
