| * perf_counter tools: Fix vmlinux symbol generation breakageMike Galbraith2009-07-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | vmlinux meets the criteria for symbol adjustment, which breaks vmlinux generated symbols. Fix this by exempting vmlinux. This is a bit fragile in that someone could change the kernel dso's name, but currently that name is also hardwired.

| * perf: avoid structure size confusion by using a fixed sizeArjan van de Ven2009-07-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | for some reason, this structure gets compiled as 36 bytes in some files (the ones that alloacte it) but 40 bytes in others (the ones that use it). The cause is an off_t type that gets a different size in different compilation units for some yet-to-be-explained reason. But the effect is disasterous; the size/offset members of the struct are at different offsets, and result in mostly complete garbage. The parser in perf is so robust that this all gets hidden, and after skipping an certain amount of samples, it recovers.... so this bug is not normally noticed. .... except when you want every sample to be exact. Fix this by just using an explicitly sized type.

| * perf_counter: PERF_SAMPLE_ID and inherited countersPeter Zijlstra2009-07-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Anton noted that for inherited counters the counter-id as provided by PERF_SAMPLE_ID isn't mappable to the id found through PERF_RECORD_ID because each inherited counter gets its own id. His suggestion was to always return the parent counter id, since that is the primary counter id as exposed. However, these inherited counters have a unique identifier so that events like PERF_EVENT_PERIOD and PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE can be specific about which counter gets modified, which is important when trying to normalize the sample streams. This patch removes PERF_EVENT_PERIOD in favour of PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD, which is more useful anyway, since changing periods became a lot more common than initially thought -- rendering PERF_EVENT_PERIOD the less useful solution (also, PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD reports the more accurate value, since it reports the value used to trigger the overflow, whereas PERF_EVENT_PERIOD simply reports the requested period changed, which might only take effect on the next cycle). This still leaves us PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE to consider, but since that _should_ be a rare occurrence, and linking it to a primary id is the most useful bit to diagnose the problem, we introduce a PERF_SAMPLE_STREAM_ID, for those few cases where the full reconstruction is important.

| * perf_counter tools: callchains: Manage the cumul hits on the flyFrederic Weisbecker2009-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The cumul hits are the number of hits of every childs of a node plus the hits of the current nodes, required for percentage computing of a branch. Theses numbers are calculated during the sorting of the branches of the callchain tree using a depth first postfix traversal, so that cumulative hits are propagated in the right order. But if we plan to implement percentages relative to the parent and not absolute percentages (relative to the whole overhead), we need to know the cumulative hits of the parent before computing the children because the relative minimum acceptable number of entries (ie: minimum rate against the cumulative hits from the parent) is the basis to filter the children against a given rate. Then we need to handle the cumul hits on the fly to prepare the implementation of relative overhead rates.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The default callchain parameters are set to use the flat mode and never filter any overhead threshold of backtrace. But flat mode is boring compared to graph mode. Also the number of callchains may be very high if none is filtered. Let's change this to set the graph view and a minimum overhead of 0.5% as default parameters.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the user doesn't provide options to tune his callchain output (ie: if he uses -c without arguments) then the default value passed in the OPT_CALLBACK_DEFAULT() macro is used. But it's parsed later by strtok() which will replace comma separators to a zero. This may segfault as we are using a read-only string. Use a modifiable one instead, and also fix the "100%" default minimum threshold value by turning it into a 0 (output every callchains) as it was intended in the origin.

This patch provides a new helper OPT_CALLBACK_DEFAULT() which defines such kind of option. For example, considering an option -c, we want to get the default value in the following cases: perf command -c -d perf command -d -c And the foo value when it's given: perf command -c foo -d perf command -d -c foo That's also why PARSE_OPT_LASTARG_DEFAULT is extended here to support default values whatever the position of the option, not only in the end.

The head is the children field of the parent and the list nodes are in the brothers field of the children. This is because the childs are linked to the parent as a list of "brothers" using the "children" list of the parent as a head: --------------- | Parent (head) |------------------------------------- --------------- | | | children | | | ----------- ----------- | | 1st child |---brother---| 2nd child |---brother----- ----------- ----------- This makes the following strange pattern often occuring: list_for_each_entry(child, &parent->children, brothers) { // do something with children } Abstract it to chain_for_each_child() to factorize and simplify this pattern.

| * perf_counter tools: Rework event string parsing/syntaxPaul Mackerras2009-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reworks the parser for event descriptors to make it more consistent in what it accepts. It is now structured as a recursive descent parser for the following grammar: events ::= event ( ("," | space) space* event )* event ::= ( raw_event | numeric_event | symbolic_event | generic_hw_event ) [ event_modifier ] raw_event ::= "r" hex_number numeric_event ::= number ":" number number ::= decimal_number | "0x" hex_number | "0" octal_number symbolic_event ::= string_from_event_symbols_array generic_hw_event::= cache_type ( "-" ( cache_op | cache_result ) )* event_modifier ::= ":" ( "u" | "k" | "h" )+ with the extra restriction that you can have at most one cache_op and at most one cache_result. We pass the current string pointer by reference (i.e. as a const char **) to the various parsing functions so that they can advance the pointer to indicate how much they consumed. They return 0 if they didn't recognize the thing at the pointer or 1 if they did (and advance the pointer past it). This also fixes parse_aliases to take the longest matching alias from the table, not the first one. Otherwise "l1-data" would match the "l1-d" alias and the "ata" would not be consumed. This allows event modifiers indicating what processor modes to count in to be applied to any event, not just numeric events, and adds a ":h" modifier to indicate counting in hypervisor mode. Specifying ":u" now sets both exclude_kernel and exclude_hv, and so on. Multiple modes can be specified, e.g. ":uk" will count in user or hypervisor mode (i.e. only exclude_kernel will be set).

| * perf_counter tools: Various fixes for callchainsFrederic Weisbecker2009-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The symbol resolving has of course revealed some bugs in the callchain tree handling. This patch fixes some of them, including: - inherit the children from the parents while splitting a node - fix list range moving - fix indexes setting in callchains - create a child on the current node if the path doesn't match in the existent children (was only done on the root) - compare using symbols when possible so that we can match a function using any ip inside by referring to its start address. The practical effects are: - remove double callchains - fix upside down or any random order of callchains - fix wrong paths - fix bad hits and percentage accounts Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> LKML-Reference: <1246419315-9968-4-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
