* perf header: Stop using 'self'Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2011-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Stop using this python/OOP convention, doesn't really helps. Will do more from time to time till we get it cleaned up in all of tools/perf.

* perf session: Use evlist/evsel for managing perf.data attributesArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2011-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So that we can reuse things like the id to attr lookup routine (perf_evlist__id2evsel) that uses a hash table instead of the linear lookup done in the older perf_header_attr routines, etc. Also to make evsels/evlist more pervasive an API, simplyfing using the emerging perf lib. cc: Arun Sharma <arun@sharma-home.net> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

* perf top: Fix events overflow in top commandJiri Olsa2011-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The snprintf function returns number of printed characters even if it cross the size parameter. So passing enough events via '-e' parameter will cause segmentation fault. It's reproduced by following command: perf top -e `perf list | grep Tracepoint | awk -F'[' '\ {gsub(/[[:space:]]+/,"",$1);array[FNR]=$1}END{outputs=array[1];\ for (i=2;i<=FNR;i++){ outputs=outputs "," array[i];};print outputs}'` Attached patch is adding SNPRINTF macro that provides the overflow check and returns actuall number of printed characters.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When multiple events were used in 'perf record', allow the user to choose which one is wanted before showing the per event histograms. Annotations will be performed on the chosen event. Allow going back and forth from event to event quickly using just the arrow keys and enter.

* perf tools: Improve support for sessions with multiple eventsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2011-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By creating an perf_evlist out of the attributes in the perf.data file header, so that we can use evlists and evsels when reading recorded sessions in addition to when we record sessions. More work is needed to allow tools to allow the user to select which events are wanted when browsing sessions, be it just one or a subset of them, aggregated or showed at the same time but with different indications on the UI to allow seeing workloads thru different views at the same time. But the overall goal/trend is to more uniformly use evsels and evlists.

The problem could be triggered by asking for a variable that was optimized out, fact that should stop the whole probe processing but instead was segfaulting while installing broken probes: [root@emilia ~]# probe perf_mmap:55 user_lock_limit Failed to find the location of user_lock_limit at this address. Perhaps, it has been optimized out. Failed to find 'user_lock_limit' in this function.

RUNTIME_PREFIX It's currently never anything but unset, and it's apparently only meaningful when Microsoft Windows is the operating system (according to the source for git). TEST_PROGRAMS EXTRA_PROGRAMS unused SHELL_PATH_SQ portions unused test for V=2 useless exports Only when `V' is undefined (that is, only when the value of `V' is empty) is `export V' performed, which just has the effect of placing the empty-valued variable `V' in the environment. The only other script to make use of `V' is `Documentation/Makefile', which only checks whether `V' is undefined (that is, whether the value of `V' is empty); hence, the `export V' has no effect whatsoever. Similarly, `export QUIET_GEN' is useless because it will only have a non-empty value when `V' has an empty-value, and when `V' has an empty-value, `QUIET_GEN' is always explicitly set in every script in which it is used. `DESTDIR' is only ever defined by the user via the environment or the command line, both of which are automatically exported to sub-make processes. Furthermore, no non-make sub-scripts make use of `DESTDIR' as an environment variable. No other scripts use `perfexec_instdir'. unused QUIET_SUBDIR{0,1} TAR and RPMBUILD PTHREAD_LIBS Maintainer's dist rules and commands distclean target Test suite coverage testing PRINT_DIR and NO_SUBDIR `configure' target NO_CURL @@PERF_VERSION@@ substitution Without the sed command, all of the rule's commands can be reduced to a single line that copies a file and sets the permissions properly in the process. `make test' echo line template_instdir PERF-BUILD-OPTIONS double-colon rules The use of double-colon rules seems misguided or vestigial git.

Until now, it was trying to reconstruct the event name from its encoding. The problem is that it would only print generic events without their modifiers (u, k, pp). This patch saves the event name as passed by the user in the evsel struct and uses it to print the final event name. This would also work in case perf is linked with a library (such as libpfm4) which provides full PMU event tables. $ perf stat -e cycles:u,cycles:k date Wed Feb 16 14:58:52 CET 2011 Performance counter stats for 'date': 568600 cycles:u 2779715 cycles:k 0.001908182 seconds time elapsed Cc: Arun Sharma <arun@sharma-home.net> Cc: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the ability to filter monitoring based on container groups (cgroups) for both perf stat and perf record. It is possible to monitor multiple cgroup in parallel. There is one cgroup per event. The cgroups to monitor are passed via a new -G option followed by a comma separated list of cgroup names. The cgroup filesystem has to be mounted. Given a cgroup name, the perf tool finds the corresponding directory in the cgroup filesystem and opens it. It then passes that file descriptor to the kernel. Example: $ perf stat -B -a -e cycles:u,cycles:u,cycles:u -G test1,,test2 -- sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1': 2,368,667,414 cycles test1 2,369,661,459 cycles <not counted> cycles test2 1.001856890 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <4d590290.825bdf0a.7d0a.4890@mx.google.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

So I investigated this and noticed that when we introduced support for recording a process and its threads using --pid some bugs were introduced and that the way to fix it was to instead of passing the target_tid to the event synthesizing routines we should better pass the thread_map that has the list of threads for a --pid or just the single thread for a --tid.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The live annotation done in 'perf top' needs to limit the context before lines that aren't filtered out by the min percent filter, if we don't do that, the screen in a tty often is not enough for showing what is interesting: lines with hits and a few source code lines before it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since we'll need it when implementing the live annotate TUI browser. This also simplifies things a bit by having the list head for the source code to be in the dynamicly allocated part of struct annotation, that way we don't have to pass it around, it can be found from the struct symbol that is passed everywhere.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GCC 4.6.0 in Fedora rawhide turned up some compile errors in tools/perf due to the -Werror=unused-but-set-variable flag. I've gone through and annotated some of the assignments that had side effects (ie: return value from a function) with the __used annotation, and in some cases, just removed unused code. In a few cases, we were assigning something useful, but not using it in later parts of the function. kyle@dreadnought:~/src% gcc --version gcc (GCC) 4.6.0 20110122 (Red Hat 4.6.0-0.3) Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> LKML-Reference: <20110124161304.GK27353@bombadil.infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@redhat.com> [ committer note: Fixed up the annotation fixes, as that code moved recently ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
