2026-05-05perf debuginfo: Fix libdw API contract violationsIan Rogers
Check return value of `dwfl_report_end` during offline initialization. Validate `dwfl_module_relocation_info` result before passing to `strcmp` to avoid potential segmentation faults. Additionally: - Fix a file descriptor leak in `debuginfo__init_offline_dwarf()` when `dwfl_report_offline()` or subsequent setup calls fail.

2026-04-08perf tools: Make more global variables staticIan Rogers
`make check` will run sparse on the perf code base. A frequent warning is "warning: symbol '...' was not declared. Should it be static?" Go through and make global definitions without declarations static. In some cases it is deliberate due to dlsym accessing the symbol, this change doesn't clean up the missing declarations for perf test suites. Sometimes things can opportunistically be made const. Making somethings static exposed unused functions warnings, so restructuring of ifdefs was necessary for that. These changes reduce the size of the perf binary by 568 bytes. Committer notes: Refreshed the patch, the original one fell thru the cracks, updated the size reduction. Remove the trace-event-scripting.c changes, break the build, noticed with container builds and with sashiko: https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260401215306.2152898-1-acme%40kernel.org Also make two variables static to address another sashiko review comment: https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260402001740.2220481-1-acme%40kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Acked-by: Ankur Arora <ankur.a.arora@oracle.com> Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Albert Ou <aou@eecs.berkeley.edu> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Alexandre Ghiti <alex@ghiti.fr> Cc: Athira Rajeev <atrajeev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Guo Ren <guoren@kernel.org> Cc: Howard Chu <howardchu95@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: James Clark <james.clark@linaro.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Leo Yan <leo.yan@arm.com> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@dabbelt.com> Cc: Paul Walmsley <pjw@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Yujie Liu <yujie.liu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>
2025-11-26perf tools: Don't read build-ids from non-regular filesJames Clark
Simplify the build ID reading code by removing the non-blocking option. Having to pass the correct option to this function was fragile and a mistake would result in a hang, see the linked fix. Furthermore, compressed files are always opened blocking anyway, ignoring the non-blocking option. We also don't expect to read build IDs from non-regular files. The only hits to this function that are non-regular are devices that won't be elf files with build IDs, for example "/dev/dri/renderD129". Now instead of opening these as non-blocking and failing to read, we skip them. Even if something like a pipe or character device did have a build ID, I don't think it would have worked because you need to call read() in a loop, check for -EAGAIN and handle timeouts to make non-blocking reads work.

2025-08-25perf symbol: Add blocking argument to filename__read_build_idIan Rogers
When synthesizing build-ids, for build ID mmap2 events, they will be added for data mmaps if -d/--data is specified. The files opened for their build IDs may block on the open causing perf to hang during synthesis. There is some robustness in existing calls to filename__read_build_id by checking the file path is to a regular file, which unfortunately fails for symlinks. Rather than adding more is_regular_file calls, switch filename__read_build_id to take a "block" argument and specify O_NONBLOCK when this is false. The existing is_regular_file checking callers and the event synthesis callers are made to pass false and thereby avoiding the hang.

2025-07-25perf build-id: Ensure struct build_id is empty before useIan Rogers
If a build ID is read then not all code paths may ensure it is empty before use. Initialize the build_id to be zero-ed unless there is clear initialization such as a call to build_id__init.

2025-02-12perf tools: Use symfs when opening debuginfo by pathNamhyung Kim
I found that it failed to load a binary using --symfs option. Say I have a binary in /home/user/prog/xxx and a perf data file with it. If I move them to a different machine and use --symfs, it tries to find the binary in some locations under symfs using dso__read_binary_type_filename(), but not the last one. ${symfs}/usr/lib/debug/home/user/prog/xxx.debug ${symfs}/usr/lib/debug/home/user/prog/xxx ${symfs}/home/user/prog/.debug/xxx /home/user/prog/xxx It should check ${symfs}/home/usr/prog/xxx. Let's fix it.
