The information how much a counter ran in 'perf stat' can be quite
interesting for other tools to judge how trustworthy a measurement is.
Currently it is only output in non CSV mode.
This patches make perf stat always output the running time and the
enabled/running ratio in CSV mode.
This adds two new fields at the end for each line. I assume that
existing tools ignore new fields at the end, so it's on by default.
Only CSV mode is affected, no difference otherwise.
v2: Add extra print_running function
v3: Avoid printing nan
v4: Remove some elses and add brackets.
v5: Move non CSV case into print_running

In perf hists browser, the fold/unfold stat of each hist entry is
recorded but hb->nr_callchain_rows loses its value after zoom out and
zoom in back. This causes a wrong row cursor range that restrict user to
move down anymore.
This bug can be reproduced as follows:
$ perf record -g -e syscalls:* ls
$ perf report
Available samples
================================================================
2 syscalls:sys_enter_mprotect <= [enter one of the entries]
2 syscalls:sys_exit_mprotect
13 syscalls:sys_enter_brk
...
In the hists brower, unfold some of the items, now the cursor can reach
to any rows:
Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol
================================================================
- 100.00% 100.00% ls libuClibc-0.9.33.2.so [.] lstat64

- 16.67% 0.00% ls [unknown] [.]0x6469702e64
0x6469702e64 <= [cursor can reach to bottom line, everything is ok]
Now, zoom back to "Available samples" and enter again:

When zoom into thread/dso/symbol, the fold/unfold stat is cleared in

if we toggle fold stat on the unfold entires, nr_entries got a wrong

can't move down cursor to bottom row.

It currently prevents adding probes in weak symbols. But there're cases
that given name is an only weak symbol so that we cannot add probe.
$ perf probe -x /usr/lib/libc.so.6 -a calloc
Failed to find symbol calloc in /usr/lib/libc-2.21.so
Error: Failed to add events.
$ nm /usr/lib/libc.so.6 | grep calloc
000000000007b1f0 t __calloc
000000000007b1f0 T __libc_calloc
000000000007b1f0 W calloc
This change will result in duplicate probes when strong and weak symbols
co-exist in a binary. But I think it's not a big problem since probes
at the weak symbol will never be hit anyway.

When perf probe tries to add a probe in a binary using symbol name, it
sometimes failed since some symbols were discard during loading dso.
When it resolves an address to symbol, it'd be better to have just one
symbol at given address. But for finding address from symbol, it'd be
better to keep all names (including aliases).
So allow tools to state that they want to allow aliases via
symbol_conf.allow_aliases.

Fix perf probe to handle aliased symbols correctly in glibc. In the
glibc, several symbols are defined as an alias of __libc_XXX, e.g.
malloc is an alias of __libc_malloc.
In such cases, dwarf has no subroutine instances of the alias functions
(e.g. no "malloc" instance), but the map has that symbol and its
address.
Thus, if we search the alieased symbol in debuginfo, we always fail to
find it, but it is in the map.
To solve this problem, this fails back to address-based alternative
search, which searches the symbol in the map, translates its address to
alternative (correct) function name by using debuginfo, and retry to
find the alternative function point from debuginfo.
This adds fail-back process to --vars, --lines and --add options. So,
now you can use those on malloc@libc :)
Without this patch;
-----
# ./perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so -V malloc
Failed to find the address of malloc
Error: Failed to show vars.
# ./perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so -a "malloc bytes"
Probe point 'malloc' not found in debuginfo.
Error: Failed to add events.
-----
With this patch;
-----
# ./perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so -V malloc
Available variables at malloc
@<__libc_malloc+0>
size_t bytes
# ./perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so -a "malloc bytes"
Added new event:
probe_libc:malloc (on malloc in /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so with bytes)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1

We were keeping the session around just because we kept pointers to
struct thread instances, but now we reference count them, so no need
for deferring the perf_session__delete call to after we traverse the

We need to do that to stop accumulating entries in the dead_threads
linked list, i.e. we were keeping references to threads in struct hists
that continue to exist even after a thread exited and was removed from
the machine threads rbtree.
We still keep the dead_threads list, but just for debugging, allowing us
to iterate at any given point over the threads that still are referenced
by things like struct hist_entry.

This reverts commit 74390aa556 ("perf: Remove the extra validity check
on nr_pages")
nr_pages equals to number of pages - 1 in perf_mmap. So nr_pages = 0 is
valid.
So the nr_pages != 0 && !is_power_of_2(nr_pages) are all
needed for checking. Otherwise, for example, perf test 6 failed.
# perf test 6

although they should already fail with a build error due to lack of a
proper prototype for the function. Due to this I first tried to find
which library was missing - while it was the whole feature that was
missing from the .h file already.
To solve this, propagate -Wall -Werror to all testcases and remove them
from testcase Makefile rules that used them explicitly.
A missing feature now outputs:

This message:
Makefile:153: The path 'python-config' is not executable.
Appears on every perf build that does not have a sufficient python
environment installed. It's really just an internal detail of python
configuration pass and users should not see it - and it's pretty
meaningless to them in any case because the message is not very helpful.
(So it's not executable. Why does that matter? What can the user do
about it?)
Remove the warning, the missing python feature warning is sufficient:
config/Makefile:566: No python-config tool was found
config/Makefile:566: Python support will not be built
although even that one isn't very helpful to users: so no Python support
will be built, what can the user do to fix that? Most other such
warnings give package install suggestions.

He Kuang reported that current perf tools failed to build when ARCH
variable was given like above.
It was because the name is different that internal directory name. I
can see that David's sparc64 build has same problem.
So fix it by applying the sed conversion script to the command line ARCH
variable also, and fixing the converted name there (i.e. i386/x86_64 ->
x86, sparc64 -> sparc).

perf tools: Speed up thread map generation
We ended up emitting PERF_RECORD_FORK events after their corresponding
PERF_RECORD_COMM, so the code below will remove the "existing thread"
and then recreates it, unnecessarily:
[root@ssdandy ~]# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf -L machine__process_fork_event
<machine__process_fork_event@/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/util/machine.c:0>
0 int machine__process_fork_event(struct machine *machine, union perf_event *event,
struct perf_sample *sample)
2 {
3 struct thread *thread = machine__find_thread(machine,
event->fork.pid,
event->fork.tid);
6 struct thread *parent = machine__findnew_thread(machine,
event->fork.ppid,
event->fork.ptid);
/* if a thread currently exists for the thread id remove it */
if (thread != NULL)
12 machine__remove_thread(machine, thread);
14 thread = machine__findnew_thread(machine, event->fork.pid,
event->fork.tid);
16 if (dump_trace)
17 perf_event__fprintf_task(event, stdout);
19 if (thread == NULL || parent == NULL ||
20 thread__fork(thread, parent, sample->time) < 0) {
21 dump_printf("problem processing PERF_RECORD_FORK, skipping event.\n");
22 return -1;
}
25 return 0;
26 }
[root@ssdandy ~]# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf fork_after_comm=machine__process_fork_event:12
Added new event:
probe_perf:fork_after_comm (on machine__process_fork_event:12 in /home/acme/bin/perf)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_perf:fork_after_comm -aR sleep 1
[root@ssdandy ~]#
[root@ssdandy ~]# perf record -g -e probe_perf:* trace -o /tmp/bla
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.021 MB perf.data (30 samples) ]
Terminated
[root@ssdandy ~]#
[root@ssdandy ~]# perf report --no-children --show-total-period --stdio
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
#
# Samples: 30 of event 'probe_perf:fork_after_comm'
# Event count (approx.): 30
#
# Overhead Period Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ ............ ....... ............. ...............................

|
---machine__process_fork_event
__event__synthesize_thread.part.2
perf_event__synthesize_threads
cmd_trace

__libc_start_main
[root@ssdandy ~]#
And Looking at 'perf report -D' output we see it:
0 0 0x8698 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_COMM: auditd:703/707
0 0 0x86c8 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_FORK(703:707):(703:703)
Fix it by more closely mimicking how the kernel generates those records
when a new fork happens, i.e. first a PERF_RECORD_FORK, then a
PERF_RECORD_COMM.

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

This patch fixes the issues by checking if the counter is supported,
before reading and logging the counter value.

When perf.data file is obtained using 'perf record -b', perf report
should use branch stack mode to generate output. But this function is
broken by improper comparison between boolean and constant -1.
