perf sample: Make user_regs and intr_regs optional

The struct dump_regs contains 512 bytes of cache_regs, meaning the two
values in perf_sample contribute 1088 bytes of its total 1384 bytes
size. Initializing this much memory has a cost reported by Tavian
Barnes <[email protected]> as about 2.5% when running `perf
script --itrace=i0`:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/d841b97b3ad2ca8bcab07e4293375fb7c32dfce7.1736618095.git.tavianator@tavianator.com/

Adrian Hunter <[email protected]> replied that the zero
initialization was necessary and couldn't simply be removed.

This patch aims to strike a middle ground of still zeroing the
perf_sample, but removing 79% of its size by make user_regs and
intr_regs optional pointers to zalloc-ed memory. To support the
allocation accessors are created for user_regs and intr_regs. To
support correct cleanup perf_sample__init and perf_sample__exit
functions are created and added throughout the code base.

perf jitdump: Fixup in_pidns member when java agent and 'perf record' are not in the same pidns

perf jitdump: Fixup in_pidns member when java agent and 'perf record' are not in the same pidns

When running 'perf record' outside a container and the java agent inside
a container the jit_repipe_code_load() and friends will emit
PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 entries for the jitdump records and will check if we
need to fixup the pid/tid:

nspid = jr->load.pid;
pid = jr_entry_pid(jd, jr);
tid = jr_entry_tid(jd, jr);

The jr_entry_pid() function looks if we're in the same pidns:

static pid_t jr_entry_pid(struct jit_buf_desc *jd, union jr_entry *jr)
{
if (jd->nsi && nsinfo__in_pidns(jd->nsi))
return nsinfo__tgid(jd->nsi);
return jr->load.pid;
}

But since the thread, populated from perf.data records, try to figure
out if in the same pidns by actually trying, on the system where 'perf
inject' is running to open a procfs file (a bug that remains to be
fixed), assuming that if it is not possible that is because that thread
terminated and thus we can't get its namespace info and tolerates
nsinfo__init() failing, noting only that that namespace can't be
entered, so don't even try.

But we can kinda get at least that info (thread->nsinfo->in_pidns) from
the data in the perf.data file, namely the pid and tid in the
PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 for the jit-<PID>.dump file generated from the java
agent, if the PERF_RECORD_MMAP2->pid is the same as what is in the
jitdump file, then we're in the same namespace, otherwise we need to use
the PERF_RECORD_MMAP2->pid.

This all has to be revamped for this jitdump + running perf from
outside, as the meaning of in_pidns is being abused, the initialization
of nsinfo->pid with the value coming from the PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 data is
wrong as it is the pid _outside_ the container since perf was running
there.

The hack in this patch at least produces the expected result in this
scenario by following the assumptions in the current codebase for
finding maps and for generating the PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 for the ELF files
synthesized from the jitdump records in jit_repipe_code_load(), etc.s

with the format:

⬢ [acme@toolbox a]$ perf report -D | grep P

perf jitdump: Accept jitdump mmaps emitted from inside containers

When the java agent is running inside a container it will emit mmaps
with the format:

⬢ [acme@toolbox a]$ perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_MMAP | grep \.dump
0 0x15c400 [0x90]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 3308868/3308868: [0x7fb8de6cb000(0x1000) @ 0 08:14 3222905945 0]: r-xp /tmp/.debug/jit/java-jit-20241126.XXTxEIOn/jit-1.dump
⬢ [acme@toolbox a]$

Since perf is running from outside the container it sees the pid 3308868
in PERF_RECORD_MMAP2, while the agent saw the pid of the profiled app
inside the container, 1.

The previous validation was:

if (pid && pid2 != nsinfo__nstgid(nsi))

pid2 at this point is '1' (/jit-1.dump), so it considers this as a
malformed jitdump mmap and refuses to process it.

The test ends up as:

if (3308868 && 1 != 3308868)

which is true and the jitdump is not processed.

Since 1 in the container namespace is really 3308868 in the namespace
that perf is running, consider this a valid mmap.

We need to make perf realize this and behave accordingly, for now
checking instead:

if (pid && pid2 && pid != nsinfo__nstgid(nsi))

Translating to:

if (3308868 && 1 && 3308868 != 3308868)

Will make the jitdump mmap to be considered valid and processed.

The jitdump is described in:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/tools/perf/Documentation/jitdump-specification.txt

Now we end up with the expected flurry of MMAPs, one per jitted function
transformed into a little ELF file that should then be processable by
the other perf features, like code annotation:

[acme@toolbox a]$ echo $JITDUMPDIR
/tmp/.debug/jit
[acme@toolbox a]$

First use 'perf inject':

⬢ [acme@toolbox a]$ time perf inject -i perf.data -o acme-perf-injected.data -j

Then look at the PERF_RECORD_MMAP events in the result file, that went
thru the JIT map file:

⬢ [acme@toolbox a]$ ls -la /tmp/*.map
-rw-r--r--. 1 acme acme 2989559 Nov 27 16:11 /tmp/perf-3308868.map
[acme@toolbox a]$

It is a symbol table:

⬢ [acme@toolbox a]$ head /tmp/*.map

⬢ [acme@toolbox a]$

As specified in:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/tools/perf/Documentation/jit-interface.txt

This was collected from inside the container, so came as
/tmp/perf-1.map.

To make perf, running outside the container to use it we need to copy it
to /tmp/perf-3308868.map.

This is another logic that has to be added to perf to work on this
scenario of running outside the container but processing things created
by the hava agent running inside the container.

With all this in place we get to:

The thing now being investigated is why we can't annotate anything here,
maybe that JITDUMPDIR is getting in the way:

No source code nor line numbers, that I saw in another build of perf for
RHEL9, for the same workload described in the cset above (a publicly
available java benchmark), so something to investigate on perf upstream
running on fedora, maybe some quirk with the jdk used when building perf
for RHEL 9 and for Fedora 40.

A related patch that should have make this all work is:

"perf inject jit: Add namespaces support"
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=67dec926931448d688efb5fe34f7b5a22470fc0a

But we still need to polish this some more, maybe there are differences
in the agent used in NodeJS with --perf-prof and the jvmti one we're
using.

Hopefully describing all the steps while we investigate this case will
help us improve perf support for profiling JITed environments running in
containers while profiling from inside and outside it.

Committer notes:

thread->nsinfo wasn't wrapped as it is used together with
nsinfo__zput(), where does a trick to set the field with a refcount
being dropped to NULL, and that doesn't work well with using
thread__nsinfo(thread), that loses the &thread->nsinfo pointer.

When refcount checking is added to 'struct thread', later in this
series, nsinfo__zput(RC_CHK_ACCESS(thread)->nsinfo) will be used to
check the thread pointer.

perf inject jit: Ignore memfd and anonymous mmap events if jitdump present

Some processes store jitted code in memfd mappings to avoid having rwx
mappings. These processes map the code with a writeable mapping and a
read-execute mapping. They write the code using the writeable mapping
and then unmap the writeable mapping. All subsequent execution is
through the read-execute mapping.

perf inject --jit ignores //anon* mappings for each process where a
jitdump is present because it expects to inject mmap events for each
jitted code range, and said jitted code ranges will overlap with the
//anon* mappings.

Ignore /memfd: and [anon:* mappings so that jitted code contained in
/memfd: and [anon:* mappings is treated the same way as jitted code
contained in //anon* mappings.

perf jit: Let convert_timestamp() to be backwards-compatible

Commit d110162cafc80dad ("perf tsc: Support cap_user_time_short for
event TIME_CONV") supports the extended parameters for event TIME_CONV,
but it broke the backwards compatibility, so any perf data file with old
event format fails to convert timestamp.

This patch introduces a helper event_contains() to check if an event
contains a specific member or not. For the backwards-compatibility, if
the event size confirms the extended parameters are supported in the
event TIME_CONV, then copies these parameters.

Committer notes:

To make this compiler backwards compatible add this patch:

- struct perf_tsc_conversion tc = { 0 };
+ struct perf_tsc_conversion tc = { .time_shift = 0, };

perf inject jit: Add namespaces support

This patch fixes "perf inject --jit" to properly operate on
namespaced/containerized processes:

* jitdump files are generated by the process, thus they should be
looked up in its mount NS.

* DSOs of injected MMAP events will later be looked up in the process
mount NS, so write them into its NS.

* PIDs & TIDs from jitdump events need to be translated to the PID as
seen by "perf record" before written into MMAP events.

For a process in a different PID NS, the TID & PID given in the jitdump
event are actually ignored; I use the TID & PID of the thread which
mmap()ed the jitdump file. This is simplified and won't do for forks of
the initial process, if they continue using the same jitdump file.
Future patches might improve it.

This was tested by recording a NodeJS process running with
"--perf-prof", inside a Docker container, and by recording another
NodeJS process running in the same namespaces as perf itself, to make
sure it's not broken for non-containerized processes.

The synthesized event TIME_CONV doesn't contain the complete parameters

and timestamp.

This patch extends event TIME_CONV to record flags 'cap_user_time_zero'
which is used to indicate the counter parameters are valid or not, if
not will directly return 0 for timestamp calculation. And record the
flag 'cap_user_time_short' and its relevant fields 'time_cycles' and
'time_mask' for cycle calibration.

perf inject jit: Remove //anon mmap events

**perf-<pid>.map and jit-<pid>.dump designs:

When a JIT generates code to be executed, it must allocate memory and
mark it executable using an mmap call.

perf inject jit: Remove //anon mmap events

**perf-<pid>.map and jit-<pid>.dump designs:

When a JIT generates code to be executed, it must allocate memory and
mark it executable using an mmap call.

*** perf-<pid>.map design

The perf-<pid>.map assumes that any sample recorded in an anonymous
memory page is JIT code. It then tries to resolve the symbol name by
looking at the process' perf-<pid>.map.

*** jit-<pid>.dump design

The jit-<pid>.dump mechanism takes a different approach. It requires a
JIT to write a `<path>/jit-<pid>.dump` file. This file must also be
mmapped so that perf inject -jit can find the file. The JIT must also
add JIT_CODE_LOAD records for any functions it generates. The records
are timestamped using a clock which can be correlated to the perf record
clock.

After perf record, the `perf inject -jit` pass parses the recording
looking for a `<path>/jit-<pid>.dump` file. When it finds the file, it
parses it and for each JIT_CODE_LOAD record:
* creates an elf file `<path>/jitted-<pid>-<code_index>.so
* injects a new mmap record mapping the new elf file into the process.

*** Coexistence design

The kernel and perf support both of these mechanisms. We need to make
sure perf works on an app supporting either or both of these mechanisms.
Both designs rely on mmap records to determine how to resolve an ip
address.

The mmap records of both techniques by definition overlap. When the JIT
compiles a method, it must:

* allocate memory (mmap)
* add execution privilege (mprotect or mmap. either will
generate an mmap event form the kernel to perf)
* compile code into memory
* add a function record to perf-<pid>.map and/or jit-<pid>.dump

Because the jit-<pid>.dump mechanism supports greater capabilities, perf
prefers the symbols from jit-<pid>.dump. It implements this based on
timestamp ordering of events. There is an implicit ASSUMPTION that the
JIT_CODE_LOAD record timestamp will be after the // anon mmap event that
was generated during memory allocation or adding the execution privilege setting.

*** Problems with the ASSUMPTION

The ASSUMPTION made in the Coexistence design section above is violated
in the following scenario.

*** Scenario

While a JIT is jitting code it will eventually need to commit more
pages and change these pages to executable permissions. Typically the
JIT will want these collocated to minimize branch displacements.

The kernel will coalesce these anonymous mapping with identical
permissions before sending an MMAP event for the new pages. The address
range of the new mmap will not be just the most recently mmap pages.
It will include the entire coalesced mmap region.

See mm/mmap.c

unsigned long mmap_region(struct file *file, unsigned long addr,
unsigned long len, vm_flags_t vm_flags, unsigned long pgoff,
struct list_head *uf)
{
...
/*
* Can we just expand an old mapping?
*/
...
perf_event_mmap(vma);
...
}

*** Symptoms

The coalesced // anon mmap event will be timestamped after the
JIT_CODE_LOAD records. This means it will be used as the most recent
mapping for that entire address range. For remaining events it will look
at the inferior perf-<pid>.map for symbols.

If both mechanisms are supported, the symbol will appear twice with
different module names. This causes weird behavior in reporting.

If only jit-<pid>.dump is supported, the symbol will no longer be resolved.

** Implemented solution

This patch solves the issue by removing // anon mmap events for any
process which has a valid jit-<pid>.dump file.

It tracks on a per process basis to handle the case where some running
apps support jit-<pid>.dump, but some only support perf-<pid>.map.

It adds new assumptions:
* // anon mmap events are only required for perf-<pid>.map support.
* An app that uses jit-<pid>.dump, no longer needs
perf-<pid>.map support. It assumes that any perf-<pid>.map info is
inferior.

*** Details

Use thread->priv to store whether a jitdump file has been processed

During "perf inject --jit", discard "//anon*" mmap events for any pid which
has sucessfully processed a jitdump file.

** Testing:

// jitdump case

perf record <app with jitdump>
perf inject --jit --input perf.data --output perfjit.data

// verify mmap "//anon" events present initially

perf script --input perf.data --show-mmap-events | grep '//anon'

// verify mmap "//anon" events removed

perf script --input perfjit.data --show-mmap-events | grep '//anon'

// no jitdump case

perf record <app without jitdump>
perf inject --jit --input perf.data --output perfjit.data

// verify mmap "//anon" events present initially

perf script --input perf.data --show-mmap-events | grep '//anon'

// verify mmap "//anon" events not removed

perf script --input perfjit.data --show-mmap-events | grep '//anon'

** Repro:

This issue was discovered while testing the initial CoreCLR jitdump
implementation. https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/pull/26897.

** Alternate solutions considered

These were also briefly considered:

* Change kernel to not coalesce mmap regions.

* Change kernel reporting of coalesced mmap regions to perf. Only
include newly mapped memory.

* Only strip parts of // anon mmap events overlapping existing
jitted-<pid>-<code_index>.so mmap events.

perf tools: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array
member[1][2], introduced in C99:

struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in
case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will
help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this
change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

Also we don't need to include perf_event.h in
tools/perf/lib/include/perf/evsel.h, forward declaring 'struct
perf_event_attr' is enough. And this even fixes the build in some
systems where things are used somewhere down the include path from
perf_event.h without defining __always_inline.

perf tools: Use zfree() where applicable

In places where the equivalent was already being done, i.e.:

free(a);

And in placs where struct members are being freed so that if we have
some erroneous reference to its struct, then accesses to freed members
will result in segfaults, which we can detect faster than use after free
to areas that may still have something seemingly valid.
