Implements framework of 'perf kwork report', which is used to report
time properties such as run time and frequency:
Test cases:
# perf kwork
Usage: perf kwork [<options>] {record|report}
-D, --dump-raw-trace dump raw trace in ASCII
-f, --force don't complain, do it
-k, --kwork <kwork> list of kwork to profile (irq, softirq, workqueue, etc)
-v, --verbose be more verbose (show symbol address, etc)
# perf kwork report -h
Usage: perf kwork report [<options>]
-C, --cpu <cpu> list of cpus to profile
-i, --input <file> input file name
-n, --name <name> event name to profile
-s, --sort <key[,key2...]>
sort by key(s): runtime, max, count
-S, --with-summary Show summary with statistics
--time <str> Time span for analysis (start,stop)
# perf kwork report
Kwork Name | Cpu | Total Runtime | Count | Max runtime | Max runtime start | Max runtime end |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# perf kwork report -S
Kwork Name | Cpu | Total Runtime | Count | Max runtime | Max runtime start | Max runtime end |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total count : 0
Total runtime (msec) : 0.000 (0.000% load average)
Total time span (msec) : 0.000
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# perf kwork report -C 0,100
Requested CPU 100 too large. Consider raising MAX_NR_CPUS
Invalid cpu bitmap
# perf kwork report -s runtime1
Error: Unknown --sort key: `runtime1'
Usage: perf kwork report [<options>]
-C, --cpu <cpu> list of cpus to profile
-i, --input <file> input file name
-n, --name <name> event name to profile
-s, --sort <key[,key2...]>
sort by key(s): runtime, max, count
-S, --with-summary Show summary with statistics
--time <str> Time span for analysis (start,stop)
# perf kwork report -i perf_no_exist.data
failed to open perf_no_exist.data: No such file or directory
# perf kwork report --time 00FFF,
Invalid time span
Since there are no report supported events, the output is empty.
Briefly describe the data structure:
1. "class" indicates event type. For example, irq and softiq correspond
to different types.
2. "cluster" refers to a specific event corresponding to a type. For
example, RCU and TIMER in softirq correspond to different clusters,
which contains three types of events: raise, entry, and exit.
3. "atom" includes time of each sample and sample of the previous phase.
(For example, exit corresponds to entry, which is used for timehist.)
Committer notes:
- Add {} for multiline if blocks.
- report_print_work() should either return that ret variable that
accounts how many bytes were printed or stop accounting and be void.
Do the former for now to avoid this:
builtin-kwork.c:534:6: error: variable 'ret' set but not used [-Werror,-Wunused-but-set-variable]
int ret = 0;

The 'perf kwork' tool is used to trace time properties of kernel work
(such as irq, softirq, and workqueue), including runtime, latency, and
timehist, using the infrastructure in the perf tools to allow tracing
extra targets.
This is the first commit to reuse the 'perf record' framework code to
implement a simple record function, kwork is not supported currently.
Test cases:
# perf
usage: perf [--version] [--help] [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]
The most commonly used perf commands are:
<SNIP>
iostat Show I/O performance metrics
kallsyms Searches running kernel for symbols
kmem Tool to trace/measure kernel memory properties
kvm Tool to trace/measure kvm guest os
kwork Tool to trace/measure kernel work properties (latencies)
list List all symbolic event types
lock Analyze lock events
mem Profile memory accesses
record Run a command and record its profile into perf.data
<SNIP>
See 'perf help COMMAND' for more information on a specific command.

The 'perf lock contention' processes the lock contention events and
displays the result like perf lock report. Right now, there's not

When the pipe is closed, we mark the associated watchqueue defunct by
calling watch_queue_clear(). However, while that is protected by the
watchqueue lock, new watchqueue entries aren't actually added under that
lock at all: they use the pipe->rd_wait.lock instead, and looking up
that pipe happens without any locking.
The watchqueue code uses the RCU read-side section to make sure that the
wqueue entry itself hasn't disappeared, but that does not protect the
pipe_info in any way.
So make sure to actually hold the wqueue lock when posting watch events,
properly serializing against the pipe being torn down.

The lockdown LSM is primarily used in conjunction with UEFI Secure Boot.
This LSM may also be used on machines without UEFI. It can also be
enabled when UEFI Secure Boot is disabled. One of lockdown's features
is to prevent kexec from loading untrusted kernels. Lockdown can be
enabled through a bootparam or after the kernel has booted through
securityfs.
If IMA appraisal is used with the "ima_appraise=log" boot param,
lockdown can be defeated with kexec on any machine when Secure Boot is
disabled or unavailable. IMA prevents setting "ima_appraise=log" from
the boot param when Secure Boot is enabled, but this does not cover
cases where lockdown is used without Secure Boot.
To defeat lockdown, boot without Secure Boot and add ima_appraise=log to
the kernel command line; then:
$ echo "integrity" > /sys/kernel/security/lockdown
$ echo "appraise func=KEXEC_KERNEL_CHECK appraise_type=imasig" > \
/sys/kernel/security/ima/policy
$ kexec -ls unsigned-kernel
Add a call to verify ima appraisal is set to "enforce" whenever lockdown
is enabled. This fixes CVE-2022-21505.

The reason for this is the output of the command
./perf stat -x, -A -a --no-merge true

is set, the output of above perf command is
CPU0,1.50,msec,cpu-clock,1502781,100.00,1.052,CPUs utilized
When CONFIG_SCHED_TOPOLOGY is *NOT* set the output of above perf

Inject events from a perf.data file recorded in a virtual machine into
a perf.data file recorded on the host at the same time.
Only side band events (e.g. mmap, comm, fork, exit etc) and build IDs are
injected. Additionally, the guest kcore_dir is copied as kcore_dir__
appended to the machine PID.
This is non-trivial because:
o It is not possible to process 2 sessions simultaneously so instead
events are first written to a temporary file.
o To avoid conflict, guest sample IDs are replaced with new unused sample
IDs.
o Guest event's CPU is changed to be the host CPU because it is more
useful for reporting and analysis.
o Sample ID is mapped to machine PID which is recorded with VCPU in the
id index. This is important to allow guest events to be related to the
guest machine and VCPU.
o Timestamps must be converted.
o Events are inserted to obey finished-round ordering.
The anticipated use-case is:
- start recording sideband events in a guest machine
- start recording an AUX area trace on the host which can trace also the
guest (e.g. Intel PT)
- run test case on the guest
- stop recording on the host
- stop recording on the guest
- copy the guest perf.data file to the host
- inject the guest perf.data file sideband events into the host perf.data
file using perf inject
- the resulting perf.data file can now be used
Subsequent patches provide Intel PT support for this.

When parsing a sample with a sample ID, copy machine_pid and vcpu from
perf_sample_id to perf_sample.
Note, machine_pid will be zero when unused, so only a non-zero value
represents a guest machine. vcpu should be ignored if machine_pid is zero.
Note also, machine_pid is used with events that have come from injecting a
guest perf.data file, however guest events recorded on the host (i.e. using
perf kvm) have the (QEMU) hypervisor process pid to identify them - refer
machines__find_for_cpumode().
