Nelson Elhage 18e6093904 perf: builtin-record: Provide advice if mmap'ing fails with EPERM.
This failure is most likely due to running up against the
kernel.perf_event_mlock_kb sysctl, so we can tell the user what to do to
fix the issue.

I'm using a fairly recent binutils:

  GNU objdump version 2.21.51.0.6-2.fc16 20110118

AFAICS the bug is simply that sym->end points to the last byte
of the symbol in question - while objdump's --stop-address
expects the last byte plus 1 to disassemble the full range.

David Ahern defd8d3877 perf tools: Fix comm for processes with named threads
perf does not properly handle monitoring of processes with named threads.
For example:

$ ps -C myapp -L
  PID   LWP TTY          TIME CMD
25118 25118 ?        00:00:00 myapp
25118 25119 ?        00:00:00 myapp:worker

perf record -e cs -c 1 -fo /tmp/perf.data -p 25118 -- sleep 10
perf report --stdio -i /tmp/perf.data
   100.00%  myapp:worker  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] perf_event_task_sched_out

The process name is set to the name of the last thread it finds for the
process.

The Problem:
perf-top and perf-record both create a thread_map of threads to be
monitored. That map is used in perf_event__synthesize_thread_map which
loops over the entries in thread_map and calls __event__synthesize_thread
to generate COMM and MMAP events.

__event__synthesize_thread calls perf_event__synthesize_comm which opens
/proc/pid/status, reads the name of the task and its thread group id.
That's all fine. The problem is that it then reads /proc/pid/task and
generates COMM events for each task it finds - but using the name found
in /proc/pid/status where pid is the thread of interest.

The end result (looping over thread_map + synthesizing comm events for
each thread each time) means the name of the last thread processed sets
the name for all threads in the process - which is not good for
multithreaded processes with named threads.

The Fix:
perf_event__synthesize_comm has an input argument (full) that decides
whether to process task entries for each pid it is passed. It currently
never set to 0 (perf_event__synthesize_comm has a single caller and it
always passes the value 1). Let's fix that.

Add the full input argument to __event__synthesize_thread which passes
it to perf_event__synthesize_comm. For thread/process monitoring set full
to 0 which means COMM and MMAP events are only generated for the pid
passed to it. For system wide monitoring set full to 1 so that COMM events
are generated for all threads in a process.

Andrew Vagin 3e76ac78b0 perf record: Add ability to record event period
The problem is that when SAMPLE_PERIOD is not set, the kernel generates
a number of samples in proportion to an event's period. Number of these
samples may be too big and the kernel throttles all samples above a
defined limit.

E.g.: I want to trace when a process sleeps. I created a process which
sleeps for 1ms and for 4ms.  perf got 100 events in both cases.

swapper 0 [000] 1141.371830: sched_stat_sleep: comm=foo pid=1801 delay=1386750 [ns]
swapper 0 [000] 1141.369444: sched_stat_sleep: comm=foo pid=1801 delay=4499585 [ns]

In the first case a kernel want to send 4499585 events and in the second
case it wants to send 1386750 events.  perf-reports shows that process
sleeps in both places equal time.

Instead of this we can get only one sample with an attribute period. As
result we have less data transferring between kernel and user-space and
we avoid throttling of samples.

The patch "events: Don't divide events if it has field period" added a
kernel part of this functionality.

           latter to be run in system-wide mode.

As with perf record you now can profile in system-wide mode for the
runtime of a given command, e.g.:

 # perf script -a syscall-counts sleep 2

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo f71c49e5e9 perf test: Soft errors shouldn't stop the "Validate PERF_RECORD_" test
For errors that don't preclude checking for further errors, aka "soft"
errors, just  continue testing for other errors.

Better coverage in verbose mode.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 3e7c439a7c perf test: Validate PERF_RECORD_ events and perf_sample fields
This new test will validate these new routines extracted from 'perf
record':

 - perf_evlist__config_attrs
 - perf_evlist__prepare_workload
 - perf_evlist__start_workload

In addition to several other perf_evlist methods.

It consists of starting a simple workload, setting up just one event to
monitor ("cycles") requesting that several PERF_SAMPLE_ fields be
present in all events.

It then will check that the expected PERF_RECORD_ events are produced
and will sanity check all its fields.

Some checks performed:

. PERF_SAMPLE_TIME monotonically increases.

. PERF_SAMPLE_CPU is the one requested with sched_setaffinity

. PERF_SAMPLE_TID and PERF_SAMPLE_PID matches the one we forked
  in perf_evlist__prepare_workload and that is stored in
  evlist->workload.pid

. For the events where these fields are also present in its
  pre-sample_id_all fields (e.g. event->mmap.pid), that they are what
  is expected too.

. That we get a bunch of mmaps:

  PATH/libcSUFFIX
  PATH/ldSUFFIX
  [vdso]
  PATH/sleep

Example:

  [root@emilia ~]# taskset -c 3,4 perf test -v1 perf_sample

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 806fb63007 perf evlist: Always do automatic allocation of pollfd and mmap structures
At first tools were required to do that, but while writing the python
bindings to simplify the API I made them auto-allocate when needed.

This just makes record, stat and top use that auto allocation,

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo ee29be625b perf tools: Save some loops using perf_evlist__id2evsel
Since we already ask for PERF_SAMPLE_ID and use it to quickly find the
associated evsel, add handler func + data to struct perf_evsel to avoid
using chains of if(strcmp(event_name)) and also to avoid all the linear
list searches via trace_event_find.

To demonstrate the technique convert 'perf sched' to it:

 # perf sched record sleep 5m

David Ahern c8e6672035 perf tools: make -C consistent across commands (for cpu list arg)
Currently the meaning of -C varies by perf command: for perf-top,
perf-stat, perf-record it means cpu list. For perf-report it means comm
list. Then perf-annotate, perf-report and perf-script use -c for cpu
list.

Fix annotate, report and script to use -C for cpu list to be consistent
with top, stat and record. This means report needs to use -c for comm
list which does introduce a backward compatibility change.

v1 -> v2
- update perf-script.txt too

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo ebf294bf4f perf tools: Simplify debugfs mountpoint handling code
We don't need to have two PATH_MAX char sized arrays holding it, just
one in util/debugfs.c will do.

Also rename debugfs_path to tracing_events_path, as it is not the path
to debugfs, that is debugfs_mountpoint. Both are now accessible.

This will allow accessing this code in the perf python binding without
having to drag in perf.c and util/parse-events.c.

The defaults for these variables are the canonical "/sys/kernel/debug"
and "/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/", removing the need for simple
tools to call debugfs_mount(NULL).

python binding:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./tools/perf/python/twatch.py", line 16, in <module>
    import perf
ImportError: /home/acme/git/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: hists__init

Fix it by moving the hists__init function to its only caller, evsel.c.

This way we avoid dragging in other parts of tools/perf/util/ to the
perf python binding.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo f9e3d4b1a9 perf top: Fix live annotation in the --stdio interface
In the old --stdio interface the annotation is done just after one
selects a symbol, while in --tui, now the default when the required libs
are installed, we annotate all symbols with samples so that when
annotation is asked we see what happened recently on that symbol.

To achieve that the --stdio variant checks if the hist_entry being
processed is the one selected by the user via the 's' hotkey. What
happens now that we share the hist_entry abstractions with 'perf report'
is that for minimizing locking contention multiple rb_trees are used,
one for collecting the samples and other to browse/show them after
resorting it by number of samples and decay them, which is done
periodically.

So the simple test in record_precise_ip doesn't work as we move
hist_entries between those rb_trees. To fix it just check that the
underlying struct symbol associated with those hist_entries is the same.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 7928631a66 perf hists: Fix recalculation of total_period when sorting entries
We were doing parts of it in hists__collapse_resort and parts of it in
hists__output_resort, leading to a bogus total_period.

Fix it by doing just the filtering operation when collapsing because
there we know that the Zoom operations adds filters just  what is in
hists->entries, not to the new batch of entries being collapsed.

And move all the nr_entries + total_period recalculation to
hists__output_resort since we will traverse all entries anyway there.

Problem introduced when developing threaded addition of new batches
of hist_entries, i.e. post v3.1.

Fix up conflicts in arch/x86/kernel/kprobes.c manually.

Ingo's tree did the insane "add volatile to const array", which just
doesn't make sense ("volatile const"?).  But we could remove the const
*and* make the array volatile to make doubly sure that gcc doesn't
optimize it away..

Also fix up kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c non-data-conflicts manually: the
reader_lock has been turned into a raw lock by the core locking merge,
and there was a new user of it introduced in this perf core merge.  Make
sure that new use also uses the raw accessor functions.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 727ab04edb perf evlist: Fix grouping of multiple events
The __perf_evsel__open routing was grouping just the threads for that
specific events per cpu when we want to group all threads in all events
to the first fd opened on that cpu.

So pass the xyarray with the first event, where the other events will be
able to get that first per cpu fd.

At some point top and record will switch to using perf_evlist__open that
takes care of this detail and probably will also handle the fallback
from hw to soft counters, etc.

Ricardo Ribalda Delgado c752d04066 perf symbols: Increase symbol KSYM_NAME_LEN size
Fglrx propietary driver has symbol names over 128 chars (:S). This
breaks the function kallsyms__parse.

This fix increases the size of KSYM_NAME_LEN, so kallsyms__parse can
work on such kernels.

The only counterparty, is that such function requires 128 more bytes to
work.

Jiri Olsa 29208e573a perf tools: Fix tracing info recording
Fixing the way the tracing information is stored within record command.
The current implementation is causing issues for pipe output.

Following commands fail currently:
	perf script syscall-counts ls
	perf record -e syscalls:sys_exit_read ls | ./perf report -i -

The tracing information is part of the perf data file. It contains
several files from within the tracing debugfs and procs directories.

Beside some static header files, for each tracing event the format
file is added. The /proc/kallsyms file is also added.

The tracing data are stored with preceeding size. This is causing some
dificulties for pipe output, since there's no way to tell debugfs/proc
file size before reading it. So, for pipe output, all the debugfs files
were read twice. Once to get the overall size and once to store the
content itself. This can cause problem in case any of these file
changed, within the storage time.

To fix this behaviour and ensure the integrity of the tracing data, we:
    - read debugfs/proc file into the temp file
    - get temp file size and dump it to the pipe
    - dump the temp file contents to the pipe

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo c64550cfdd perf hists: Don't decay total_period for filtered entries
Following the 'perf report' model we don't zap hist_entry instances from
the rb tree, we just keep them with he->filtered set to a mask of the
filters applied to it (thread, parent, DSO so far).

In top we need to decay even filtered entries, but we better not touch
total_period for them...

Now everything seems to work when filters are applied on top as they
worked in 'report', i.e. both dynamic and static hist entry browsing
works with filters.

David Ahern d327fa4359 perf tools: handle endianness of feature bitmap
Feature bitmap is declared as an array of unsigned longs -- not good
since its size can differ between the host that generated the data file
and the host analyzing the file.

We need to handle endianness, but we don't know the size of the unsigned
long where the file was generated. Take a best guess at determining it:
try 64-bit swap first (ie., file created on a 64-bit host), and check if
the hostname feature bit is set (this feature bit is forced on as of
fbe96f2).  If the bit is not, undo the 64-bit swap and try a 32-bit
swap. If the hostname bit is still not set (e.g., older data file), punt
and fallback to the original behavior -- clearing all feature bits and
setting buildid.
