5 daysperf c2c: add function view browser UI and cacheline detailJiebin Sun
Add the browser front end: create/run/delete the hist_browser and add the title. The d shortcut opens the existing per-cacheline detail view for the selected level-3 cacheline. Level-3 entries retain the source cacheline index, so the shortcut can locate the original entry without relying on a potentially ambiguous virtual address. Report a warning when the common model rejects a cacheline coalescing field list without `iaddr`. Without it, the detail histograms may already have merged samples from different functions and cannot support reliable function attribution. Keep visible-row accounting local to the function view by wrapping the generic browser refresh callback and recounting the currently reachable hierarchy before each redraw. This keeps navigation correct when a level-1 row is collapsed while level-3 descendants remain expanded, without adding C2C-specific hooks to the shared hist_browser. Also handle Ctrl-C like the other function-view exit keys. Keep callchains hidden while the function browser runs, restoring the user's setting while opening the cacheline detail view. Wire the builder into perf_c2c__browse_function_view().

2026-07-27perf annotate: Be robust to annotating without a threadIan Rogers
If a thread isn't given to map_symbol__get_arch(), try harder to determine the arch for disassembly. Do this by utilizing fallback paths such as reading the e_machine from a map's DSO ELF header for user-space libraries. Additionally, rely on map__kmaps() and maps__machine() to reliably extract the recorded machine environment and e_machine for kernel and kallsyms maps, perfectly preventing silent, incorrect host fallbacks to uname() during cross-platform Capstone annotation sessions. At the same time, ensure all remaining uses of a map_symbol's thread pointer do not assume it is non-NULL to eliminate UI segmentation faults, and remove the fragile, redundant thread__get_arch() function to streamline the annotate and disassembly subsystem architecture.

2026-07-27perf ui hists: Fix dso_filter reference leak and exit zoom cleanupIan Rogers
In hists_browser__zoom_map(), the active dso is assigned as a raw pointer to hists->dso_filter without acquiring a reference using dso__get(). This creates a potential use-after-free defect if the underlying dso is released while the filter remains active. Fix it by properly acquiring a reference via dso__get() when assigning the filter, and releasing it with dso__put() when clearing it. Additionally, since the browser stack relies on pstack__new() and deletes it completely upon exiting, we must fully reset the persistent hists structure by un-eliding columns and recalculating histogram filter states for dso, thread, and symbols upon exit to guarantee immaculate, uncorrupted state across browser tab switching.

Introduce explicit reference acquiring via map_symbol__copy() and thread__get() for menu items, safely clean them up between menu iterations using a new free_popup_actions() helper, and utilize insulated temporary action variables for direct hotkey handler execution.

In evsel__hists_browse(), the local stack array 'buf' is assigned directly to the persistent 'hists->symbol_filter_str' pointer. When the browser returns or is exited, this dangling pointer remains active in the 'hists' struct and is read asynchronously by the perf top background timer, triggering a stack use-after-return. Fix it by properly duplicating the input string using strdup(), safely invoking zfree() to prevent memory leaks when overwriting, and cleanly resetting and freeing the symbol filter string upon exiting the browser.

2026-07-17perf ui hists: Fix NULL pointer array gap in add_script_opt()Ian Rogers
In add_script_opt(), the function unconditionally increments the optstr and act pointers for a second optional 'time' popup action before attempting to invoke add_script_opt_2(). If the first add_script_opt_2() call failed (for example, due to an asprintf allocation failure), this leaves a NULL pointer gap in the options array at the prior index. When ui__popup_menu() is later displayed, it dereferences this gap and crashes. Fix it by avoiding unconditional pointer increments. Only advance the optstr and act pointers if the first script addition actually succeeded, and safely attach the time parameter to the correct assigned action.

2026-07-17perf hists browser: Increase MAX_OPTIONS to prevent stack buffer overflowIan Rogers
In evsel__hists_browse(), the 'options' and 'actions' arrays are statically allocated on the stack with a size of MAX_OPTIONS (16). Further down, the function sequentially calls several add_*_opt() functions, which increment nr_options without bounds checking. Depending on the context (e.g., branch mode, scripting, annotations), the sum of added options can theoretically exceed 16 (potentially reaching up to ~19). This could lead to a stack buffer overflow. Increase MAX_OPTIONS to 32 to safely accommodate the maximum possible number of options without risking an overflow.

Switch arch__find to using an ELF machine number rather than a string. Rather than an array of fixed size arch structs turn the init functions into new functions indexed by the ELF machine they correspond to. This allows data to be stored with a struct arch with the container_of trick, so the priv variable can be removed. Switch to using the thread to find the arch rather than the evsel as the evsel only has limited notions of the running thread upon which disassembly is performed.

2025-05-02perf mem: Add 'op' output fieldNamhyung Kim
This is an actual example of the he_mem_stat based sample breakdown. It uses 'mem_op' field of union perf_mem_data_src which means memory operations. It'd have basically 'load' or 'store' which can be useful if PMU doesn't have separate events for them like IBS or SPE. In addition, there's an entry in case load and store happen at the same time. Also adds entries for prefetching and execution. $ perf mem report -F +op -s comm --stdio # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # # # Total Lost Samples: 0 # # Samples: 4K of event 'ibs_op//' # Total weight : 9559 # Sort order : comm # # --------------------- Mem Op ---------------------- # Overhead Samples Load Store Ld+St Pfetch Exec Other N/A N/A Command # ........ ....... ................................................... ............... # 44.85% 4077 21.1% 30.7% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 48.3% 0.0% 0.0% swapper 26.82% 45 98.8% 0.3% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.9% 0.0% 0.0% netsli-prober 7.19% 442 51.7% 13.7% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 34.6% 0.0% 0.0% perf 5.81% 75 89.7% 2.2% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 8.1% 0.0% 0.0% qemu-system-ppc 4.77% 1 100.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% notifications_c 1.77% 10 95.9% 1.2% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 3.0% 0.0% 0.0% MemoryReleaser 0.77% 32 71.6% 4.1% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 24.3% 0.0% 0.0% DefaultEventMan 0.19% 10 66.7% 22.2% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 11.1% 0.0% 0.0% gnome-shell Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Cc: Leo Yan <leo.yan@arm.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Ravi Bangoria <ravi.bangoria@amd.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250430205548.789750-8-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2025-05-02perf hist: Implement output fields for mem statsNamhyung Kim
This is a preparation for later changes to support mem_stat output. The new fields will need two lines for the header - the first line will show type of mem stat and the second line will show the name of each item which is returned by mem_stat_name(). Each element in the mem_stat array will be printed in percentage for the hist_entry and their sum would be 100%. Add new output field dimension only for SORT_MODE__MEM using mem_stat. To handle possible name conflict with existing sort keys, move the order of checking output field dimensions after the sort dimensions when it looks for sort keys.

2025-05-02perf hist: Basic support for mem_stat accountingNamhyung Kim
Add a logic to account he->mem_stat based on mem_stat_type in hists. Each mem_stat entry will have different meaning based on the type so the index in the array is calculated at runtime using the corresponding value in the sample.data_src. Still hists has no mem_stat_types yet so this code won't work for now. Later hists->mem_stat_types will be allocated based on what users want in the output actually.

When it removes an output format for cancelled children or latency, it should delete itself from the sort list as well. Otherwise assertion in fmt_free() will fire. $ perf report -H --stdio perf: ui/hist.c:603: fmt_free: Assertion `!(!list_empty(&fmt->sort_list))' failed.

2025-04-25perf hist: Remove formats in hierarchy when cancel childrenNamhyung Kim
This is to support hierarchy options with custom output fields. Currently perf_hpp__cancel_cumulate() only removes accumulated overhead and latency fields from the global perf_hpp_list. This is not used in the hierarchy mode because each evsel's hist has its own separate hpp_list. So it needs to remove the fields from the lists too. Pass evlist to the function so that it can iterate the evsels.

2025-04-10perf ui browser hists: Set actions->thread before calling do_zoom_thread()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
In 7cecb7fe8388d5c3 ("perf hists: Move sort__has_comm into struct perf_hpp_list") it assumes that act->thread is set prior to calling do_zoom_thread(). This doesn't happen when we use ESC or the Left arrow key to Zoom out of a specific thread, making this operation not to work and we get stuck into the thread zoom. In 6422184b087ff435 ("perf hists browser: Simplify zooming code using pstack_peek()") it says no need to set actions->thread, and at that point that was true, but in 7cecb7fe8388d5c3 a actions->thread == NULL check was added before the zoom out of thread could kick in. We can zoom out using the alternative 't' thread zoom toggle hotkey to finally set actions->thread before calling do_zoom_thread() and zoom out, but lets also fix the ESC/Zoom out of thread case.
