Adrian Hunter 611a5ce8aa perf machine: Add symbol filter to struct machine
The symbol filter needs to be applied machine-wide, so add it to struct
machine.

Currently tools pass the symbol filter as a parameter to various
map-related functions.  However a need to load a map can occur anywhere
in the code, at which point the filter is needed.

Jason Wessel 8f76fcd902 perf machine: Do not require /lib/modules/* on a guest
For some types of work loads and special guest environments, you might
have a kernel that has no kernel modules.  The perf kvm record tool
fails instantiate vmlinux maps when the kernel modules directory cannot
be opened, even though the kallsyms has been properly processed.  This
leads to a perf kvm report that has no guest symbols resolved.

This patch changes the failure to locate kernel modules to be non-fatal.

Michael Ellerman e9a7c41447 perf tools: Add support for pinned modifier
This commit adds support for a new modifier "D", which requests that the
event, or group of events, be pinned to the PMU.

The "p" modifier is already taken for precise, and "P" may be used in
future to mean "fully precise".

So we use "D", which stands for pinneD - and looks like a padlock, or if
you're using the ":D" syntax perf smiles at you.

This is an oft-requested feature from our HW folks, who want to be able
to run a large number of events, but also want 100% accurate results for
instructions per cycle.

Comparison of results with and without pinning:

$ perf stat -e '{cycles,instructions}:D' -e cycles,instructions,...

  79,590,480,683 cycles         #  0.000 GHz
 166,123,716,524 instructions   #  2.09  insns per cycle
                                #  0.11  stalled cycles per insn

  79,352,134,463 cycles         #  0.000 GHz                     [11.11%]
 165,178,301,818 instructions   #  2.08  insns per cycle
                                #  0.11  stalled cycles per insn [11.13%]

As you can see although perf does a very good job of scaling the values
in the non-pinned case, there is some small discrepancy.

The patch is fairly straight forward, the one detail is that we need to
make sure we only request pinning for the group leader when we have a
group.

Namhyung Kim d50bf78ff6 perf ui/gtk: Fix segmentation fault on perf_hpp__for_each_format loop
The commit 2b8bfa6bb8 ("perf tools: Centralize default columns init in
perf_hpp__init") moves initialization of common overhead column to
perf_hpp__init() but forgot about the gtk code.

So the gtk code added the same column to the list twice causing infinite
loop when iterating it by perf_hpp__for_each_format loop.  When I run
perf report --gtk, I can see following messages indefinitely.

  (perf:11687): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_main_quit: assertion 'main_loops != NULL' failed

David Ahern 1afe1d1484 perf kvm: Add live mode
perf kvm stat currently requires back to back record and report commands
to see stats. e.g,.

  perf kvm stat record -p $pid -- sleep 1
  perf kvm stat report

This is inconvenvient for on box monitoring of a VM. This patch
introduces a 'live' mode that in effect combines the record plus report
into one command. e.g., to monitor a single VM:

  perf kvm stat live -p $pid

or all VMs:

  perf kvm stat live

Same stats options for the record+report path work with the live mode.
Display rate defaults to 1 second and can be changed using the -d
option.

v4:
- address comments from Xiao -- verify_vcpu check should not look at
  processors on line for the host, prune configurable options.
- set attr->{mmap,comm,task} to 0 - don't need task events so trim events
  we have to deal with
- better control of time for queue event flushing to reduce frequency of
  "Timestamp below last timeslice flush" failures.

v3:
updated to use existing tracepoint parsing code

v2:
removed ABSTIME arg from timerfd_settime as mentioned by Namhyung
only call perf_kvm__handle_stdin when poll returns activity.

dso__load_sym() is taken into use and the module map altered to map to

Adrian Hunter 39b12f7812 perf tools: Make it possible to read object code from vmlinux
The new "object code reading" test shows that it is not possible to read
object code from vmlinux.  That is because the mappings do not map to

A side-effect of changing the kernel map is that the "reloc" offset must
be taken into account.  As a result of that separate map functions for
relocation are no longer needed.

Also fixing up the maps to match the symbols no longer makes sense and
so is not done.

The vmlinux dso data_type is now set to either DSO_BINARY_TYPE__VMLINUX
or DSO_BINARY_TYPE__GUEST_VMLINUX as approprite, which enables the
correct file name to be determined by dso__binary_type_file().

Andi Kleen 411916880f perf stat: Add support for --initial-delay option
When measuring workloads the startup phase -- doing page faults, dynamic
linking, opening files -- is often very different from the rest of the
workload.  Especially with smaller kernels and using counter
multiplexing this can give significant measurement errors.

Multiplexing assumes that the workload is mostly the same over longer
periods. But at startup there is typically some spike of activity which
is relatively short.  If many groups are multiplexing the one group
seeing the spike, and which is then scaled up over the time to run all
groups, may see a significant error.

Also in general it's often not useful to measure the startup, because it
is so different from the rest.

One way around this is to use interval mode and discard the first
sample, but this can be awkward because interval mode doesn't support
intervals of less than 100ms, and also a useful interval is not
necessarily the same as a useful startup delay.

This patch adds a new --initial-delay / -D option to skip measuring for
the startup phase. The time can be specified in ms

Here's a simple example:

perf stat -e page-faults bash -c 'for i in $(seq 100000) ; do true ; done'
...
             3,721 page-faults
...

If we just wait 20 ms the number of page faults is 1/3 less:

perf stat -D 20 -e page-faults bash -c 'for i in $(seq 100000) ; do true ; done'
...
             2,823 page-faults
...

So we filtered out most of the startup noise from bash.

Andi Kleen 5c6974f498 perf evlist: Remove obsolete dummy execve
Minor cleanup.

"enable_on_execve" was added. The counters are only
running after the execve anyways. So just remove it.
