sanitize usage

2011-05-20T19:50:29Z

Commit e66eed651fd1 ("list: remove prefetching from regular list iterators") removed the include of prefetch.h from list.h, which uncovered several cases that had apparently relied on that rather obscure header file dependency. So this fixes things up a bit, using grep -L linux/prefetch.h $(git grep -l '[^a-z_]prefetchw*(' -- '*.[ch]') grep -L 'prefetchw*(' $(git grep -l 'linux/prefetch.h' -- '*.[ch]') to guide us in finding files that either need inclusion, or have it despite not needing it. There are more of them around (mostly network drivers), but this gets many core ones. Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

perf bench, x86: Add alternatives-asm.h wrapper

2011-05-18T19:00:44Z

perf bench needs this to build the kernel's memcpy routine: In file included from bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.S:2:0: bench/../../../arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S:7:33: fatal error: asm/alternative-asm.h: No such file or directory Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Steven Rostedt Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-c5d41xibgullk8h2280q4gv0@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

perf evsel: Introduce perf_evlist

2011-01-22T21:56:28Z

Killing two more perf wide global variables: nr_counters and evsel_list as a list_head. There are more operations that will need more fields in perf_evlist, like the pollfd for polling all the fds in a list of evsel instances. Use option->value to pass the evsel_list to parse_{events,filters}.

perf tools: Add missing header, fixes build

2011-01-22T21:15:39Z

We need the definiton for __always_inline in bitops.h to fix the build on distros where it isn't available or compiler.h doesn't get included indirectly. One of the fixes needed to build perf on RHEL4 systems, for instance.

perf record: Add option to disable collecting build-ids

2010-11-26T21:39:15Z

Collecting build-ids for long running sessions may take a long time because it needs to traverse the whole just collected perf.data stream of events, marking the DSOs that had hits and then looking for the .note.gnu.build-id ELF section. For things like the 'trace' tool that records and right away consumes the data on systems where its unlikely that the DSOs being monitored will change while 'trace' runs, it is desirable to remove build id collection, so add a -B/--no-buildid option to perf record to allow such use case. Longer term we'll avoid all this if we, at DSO load time, in the kernel, take advantage of this slow code path to collect the build-id and stash it somewhere, so that we can insert it in the PERF_RECORD_MMAP event.

perf bench: Add feature that measures the performance of the arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S memcpy routines via 'perf bench mem'

2010-11-26T07:15:57Z

This patch ports arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S to perf bench mem memcpy for benchmarking memcpy() in userland with tricky and dirty way. util/include/asm/cpufeature.h, util/include/asm/dwarf2.h, and util/include/linux/linkage.h are mostly dummy files with small wrappers, so that we are able to include memcpy_64.S unmodified.

perf: Add back list_head data types

2010-08-12T19:50:00Z

This commit: de5d9bf: Move list types from to . Moved the list head data types out of list.h, breaking the build. Add them to the perf types.h as well.
