H A D | pmu.c | e293a5e8 Fri Mar 31 15:29:45 CDT 2023 Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> perf pmu: Use relative path for sysfs scan
The PMU information is in the kernel sysfs so it needs to scan the directory to get the whole information like event aliases, formats and so on. During the traversal, it opens a lot of files and directories like below:
dir = opendir("/sys/bus/event_source/devices"); while (dentry = readdir(dir)) { char buf[PATH_MAX];
snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "%s/%s", "/sys/bus/event_source/devices", dentry->d_name); fd = open(buf, O_RDONLY); ... }
But this is not good since it needs to copy the string to build the absolute pathname, and it makes redundant pathname walk (from the /sys) unnecessarily. We can use openat(2) to open the file in the given directory. While it's not a problem ususally, it can be a problem when the kernel has contentions on the sysfs.
Add a couple of new helper to return the file descriptor of PMU directory so that it can use it with relative paths.
* perf_pmu__event_source_devices_fd() - returns a fd for the PMU root ("/sys/bus/event_source/devices")
* perf_pmu__pathname_fd() - returns a fd for "<pmu>/<file>" under the PMU root
Now the above code can be converted something like below:
dirfd = perf_pmu__event_source_devices_fd(); dir = fdopendir(dirfd); while (dentry = readdir(dir)) { fd = openat(dirfd, dentry->d_name, O_RDONLY); ... }
