2012-04-20perf symbols: Read plt symbols from proper symtab_type binaryJiri Olsa
When loading symbols from DSO we check multiple paths of DSO binary until we succeed to load symbols ('.symtab' section). Once symbols are read we try to load also plt symbols. During the reading of plt symbols, the dso file is reopened from location given by dso->long_name. This could be wrong in case we want process buildid binaries. The change is to make the plt symbols being read from the DSO path, that normal symbols were read from.

Running 'perf kvm --host --guest --guestmount /tmp/guestmount record -a -g -- sleep 2' Was resulting in a segfault. For event type PERF_RECORD_MMAP, event->ip.pid is being used in perf_session__find_machine_for_cpumode, which is not correct. The event->ip.pid field happens to be 0 in this case and results in returning a NULL machine object. Finally, access to self->pid in machine__mmap_name, results in a segfault later.

2012-04-05perf annotate: Validate addr in symbol__inc_addr_samplesArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
This routine was checking only if the provided address was after sym->end, not if it was before sym->start. Fix that by checking for both and return in both cases -ERANGE, so that tools can communicate this to the user properly, or if they chose so, to abort. This problem was reported previously but the fixes involved either doing what was being done for the > end case, i.e. silently drop the sample, returning 0, or aborting at this function, which is in a lib (or better, is slated to be at some point) and shouldn't abort. The 'report' tool already checks this value and uses pr_debug to warn the user. This patch makes the 'top' tool check it too and warn once per map where such range problem takes place.

2012-04-05perf hists: Catch and handle out-of-date hist entry maps.David Miller
When a process exec()'s, all the maps are retired, but we keep the hist entries around which hold references to those outdated maps. If the same library gets mapped in for which we have hist entries, a new map will be created. But when we take a perf entry hit within that map, we'll find the existing hist entry with the older map. This causes symbol translations to be done incorrectly. For example, the perf entry processing will lookup the correct uptodate map entry and use that to calculate the symbol and DSO relative address. But later when we update the histogram we'll translate the address using the outdated map file instead leading to conditions such as out-of-range offsets in symbol__inc_addr_samples(). Therefore, update the map of the hist_entry dynamically at lookup/ creation time. Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-03-22perf tools: Fix modifier to be applied on correct eventsJiri Olsa
The event modifier needs to be applied only on the event definition it is attached to. The current state is that in case of multiple events definition (in single '-e' option, separated by ',') all will get modifier of the last one. Fixing this by adding separated list for each event definition, so the modifier is applied only to proper event(s). Added automated test to catch this, plus some other modifier tests.

2012-03-20Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull perf events changes for v3.4 from Ingo Molnar: - New "hardware based branch profiling" feature both on the kernel and the tooling side, on CPUs that support it. (modern x86 Intel CPUs with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.) This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from regular, function histogram centric profiles. The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result looks like this in perf report: $ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy $ perf report -b --sort=symbol 52.34% [.] main [.] f1 24.04% [.] f1 [.] f3 23.60% [.] f1 [.] f2 0.01% [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn [k] _IO_file_overflow 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] strchrnul 0.01% [k] __printf [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal 0.01% [k] main [k] __printf This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e. the most likely taken branches in the system. "branches" can also include function calls and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system calls, traps, interrupts, etc. This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI support in perf report. - Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies. It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other improvements. - Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs: perf top -p 21483,21485 perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd perf record -p 21483,21485 - Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf report, etc. For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc. - Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h generic facility: struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE; ... if (static_key_false(&key)) do unlikely code else do likely code ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as little impact to the likely code path as possible. the static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching. This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key usage and fast/slow cost patterns. - SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support. - Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows better, etc. - Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes', and a corner case bugfix. - Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk). - Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side. - 'perf bench' improvements - ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made these features possible. And, as usual this list is incomplete as there were also lots of other improvements * 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (120 commits) perf report: Fix annotate double quit issue in branch view mode perf report: Remove duplicate annotate choice in branch view mode perf/x86: Prettify pmu config literals perf report: Enable TUI in branch view mode perf report: Auto-detect branch stack sampling mode perf record: Add HEADER_BRANCH_STACK tag perf record: Provide default branch stack sampling mode option perf tools: Make perf able to read files from older ABIs perf tools: Fix ABI compatibility bug in print_event_desc() perf tools: Enable reading of perf.data files from different ABI rev perf: Add ABI reference sizes perf report: Add support for taken branch sampling perf record: Add support for sampling taken branch perf tools: Add code to support PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK x86/kprobes: Split out optprobe related code to kprobes-opt.c x86/kprobes: Fix a bug which can modify kernel code permanently x86/kprobes: Fix instruction recovery on optimized path perf: Add callback to flush branch_stack on context switch perf: Disable PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_* when not supported perf/x86: Add LBR software filter support for Intel CPUs ...
2012-03-19perf report: Add a simple GTK2-based 'perf report' browserPekka Enberg
This patch adds a simple GTK2-based browser to 'perf report' that's based on the TTY-based browser in builtin-report.c. To launch "perf report" using the new GTK interface just type: $ perf report --gtk The interface is somewhat limited in features at the moment: - No callgraph support - No KVM guest profiling support - No color coding for percentages - No sorting from the UI - ..and many, many more! That said, I think this patch a reasonable start to build future features on.

When event group is enabled for forked task (i.e. no target task/cpu was specified) all events were disabled and marked ->enable_on_exec.
