2024-09-10perf inject: Add new mmap2-buildid-all optionIan Rogers
Add an option that allows all mmap or mmap2 events to be rewritten as mmap2 events with build IDs. This is similar to the existing -b/--build-ids and --buildid-all options except instead of adding a build_id event an existing mmap/mmap2 event is used as a template and a new mmap2 event synthesized from it. As mmap2 events are typical this avoids the insertion of build_id events. Add test coverage to the pipe test.

2024-09-10perf inject: Fix build ID injectionIan Rogers
Build ID injection wasn't inserting a sample ID and aligning events to 64 bytes rather than 8. No sample ID means events are unordered and two different build_id events for the same path, as happens when a file is replaced, can't be differentiated. Add in sample ID insertion for the build_id events alongside some refactoring. The refactoring better aligns the function arguments for different use cases, such as synthesizing build_id events without needing to have a dso. The misc bits are explicitly passed as with callchains the maps/dsos may span user and kernel land, so using sample->cpumode isn't good enough.

2022-07-20perf tools: Add machine_pid and vcpu to id_indexAdrian Hunter
When injecting events from a guest perf.data file, the events will have separate sample ID numbers. These ID numbers can then be used to determine which machine an event belongs to. To facilitate that, add machine_pid and vcpu to id_index records. For backward compatibility, these are added at the end of the record, and the length of the record is used to determine if they are present or not. Note, this is needed because the events from a guest perf.data file contain the pid/tid of the process running at that time inside the VM not the pid/tid of the (QEMU) hypervisor thread. So a way is needed to relate guest events back to the guest machine and VCPU, and using sample ID numbers for that is relatively simple and convenient.

2022-07-20perf tools: Add perf_event__synthesize_id_sample()Adrian Hunter
Add perf_event__synthesize_id_sample() to enable the synthesis of ID samples. This is needed by perf inject. When injecting events from a guest perf.data file, there is a possibility that the sample ID numbers conflict. In that case, perf_event__synthesize_id_sample() can be used to re-write the ID sample.

2022-01-12perf cpumap: Give CPUs their own typeIan Rogers
A common problem is confusing CPU map indices with the CPU, by wrapping the CPU with a struct then this is avoided. This approach is similar to atomic_t. Committer notes: To make it build with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 these files needed the conversions to 'struct perf_cpu' usage: tools/perf/util/bpf_counter.c tools/perf/util/bpf_counter_cgroup.c tools/perf/util/bpf_ftrace.c Also perf_env__get_cpu() was removed back in "perf cpumap: Switch cpu_map__build_map to cpu function".

2021-08-02perf inject: Fix output from a file to a pipeNamhyung Kim
When the input is a regular file but the output is a pipe, it should write a pipe header. But just repiping would write a portion of the existing header which is different in 'size' value. So we need to prevent it and write a new pipe header along with other information like event attributes and features. This can handle something like this: # perf record -a -B sleep 1 # perf inject -b -i perf.data | perf report -i - Factor out perf_event__synthesize_for_pipe() to be shared between perf record and inject.
