perf tools: Fix 64 bit integer format strings

2011-01-23T01:41:57Z

Using %L[uxd] has issues in some architectures, like on ppc64. Fix it by making our 64 bit integers typedefs of stdint.h types and using PRI[ux]64 like, for instance, git does. Reported by Denis Kirjanov that provided a patch for one case, I went and changed all cases.

perf tools: Don't keep unreferenced maps when unmaps are detected

2010-08-02T22:45:23Z

perf session: Free the ref_reloc_sym memory at the right place

2010-08-02T21:18:28Z

Which is at perf_session__destroy_kernel_maps, counterpart to the perf_session__create_kernel_maps where the kmap structure is located, just after the vmlinux_maps. Make it also check if the kernel maps were actually created, which may not be the case if, for instance, perf_session__new can't complete due to permission problems in, for instance, a 'perf report' case, when a segfault will take place, that is how this was noticed. The problem was introduced in d65a458, thus post .35. This also adds code to release guest machines as them are also created in perf_session__create_kernel_maps, so should be deleted on this newly introduced counterpart, perf_session__destroy_kernel_maps.

perf tools: Release session and symbol resources on exit

2010-07-30T21:31:28Z

So that we reduce the noise when looking for leaks using tools such as valgrind. Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Stephane Eranian LKML-Reference: Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Release thread resources on PERF_RECORD_EXIT

2010-07-30T21:28:42Z

For long running sessions with many threads with short lifetimes the amount of memory that the buildid process takes is too much. Since we don't have hist_entries that may be pointing to them, we can just release the resources associated with each thread when the exit (PERF_RECORD_EXIT) event is received. For normal processing we need to annotate maps with hits, and thus hist_entries pointing to it and drop the ones that had none. Will be done in a followup patch. Cc: David S.

perf report: Don't abbreviate file paths relative to the cwd

2010-07-27T14:39:04Z

This avoids around some problems where the full path is executables and DSOs it needed for finding debug symbols on platforms with separated debug symbol files such as Ubuntu. This is simpler than tracking an extra name for each image. The only impact should be that paths in verbose output from the perf tools become absolute, instead of relative to .

perf session: Embed the host machine data on perf_session

2010-05-10T00:14:52Z

We have just one host on a given session, and that is the most common setup right now, so embed a ->host_machine struct machine instance directly in the perf_session class, check if we're looking for it before going to the rb_tree. This also fixes a problem found when we try to process old perf.data files where we didn't have MMAP events for the kernel and modules and thus don't create the kernel maps, do it in event__preprocess_sample if it wasn't already.

perf machine: Adopt some map_groups functions

2010-04-28T00:21:18Z

Those functions operated on members now grouped in 'struct machine', so move those methods to this new class. The changes made to 'perf probe' shows that using this abstraction inserting probes on guests almost got supported for free.

perf machine: Pass buffer size to machine__mmap_name

2010-04-28T00:19:05Z

Don't blindly assume that the size of the buffer is enough, use snprintf. Cc: Avi Kivity Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Zhang, Yanmin LKML-Reference: Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Rename "kernel_info" to "machine"

2010-04-28T00:17:50Z

struct kernel_info and kerninfo__ are too vague, what they really describe are machines, virtual ones or hosts. There are more changes to introduce helpers to shorten function calls and to make more clear what is really being done, but I left that for subsequent patches.
