2010-02-04perf record: Stop intercepting events, use postprocessing to get build-idsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
We want to stream events as fast as possible to perf.data, and also in the future we want to have splice working, when no interception will be possible. Using build_id__mark_dso_hit_ops to create the list of DSOs that back MMAPs we also optimize disk usage in the build-id cache by only caching DSOs that had hits.

2010-02-04perf build-id: Move the routine to find DSOs with hits to the libArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Because 'perf record' will have to find the build-ids in after we stop recording, so as to reduce even more the impact in the workload while we do the measurement.

2010-02-04perf symbols: Ditch vdso global variableArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
We can check using strcmp, most DSOs don't start with '[' so the test is cheap enough and we had to test it there anyway since when reading perf.data files we weren't calling the routine that created this global variable and thus weren't setting it as "loaded", which was causing a bogus: Failed to open [vdso], continuing without symbols Message as the first line of 'perf report'.

2010-02-04perf symbols: Fixup vsyscall mapsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
While debugging a problem reported by Pekka Enberg by printing the IP and all the maps for a thread when we don't find a map for an IP I noticed that dso__load_sym needs to fixup these extra maps it creates to hold symbols in different ELF sections than the main kernel one. Now we're back showing things like: [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf report | grep vsyscall 0.02% mutt [kernel.kallsyms].vsyscall_fn [.] vread_hpet 0.01% named [kernel.kallsyms].vsyscall_fn [.] vread_hpet 0.01% NetworkManager [kernel.kallsyms].vsyscall_fn [.] vread_hpet 0.01% gconfd-2 [kernel.kallsyms].vsyscall_0 [.] vgettimeofday 0.01% hald-addon-rfki [kernel.kallsyms].vsyscall_fn [.] vread_hpet 0.00% dbus-daemon [kernel.kallsyms].vsyscall_fn [.] vread_hpet [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> LKML-Reference: <1265223128-11786-2-git-send-email-acme@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2010-02-04perf symbols: Remove perf_session usage in symbols layerArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
I noticed while writing the first test in 'perf regtest' that to just test the symbol handling routines one needs to create a perf session, that is a layer centered on a perf.data file, events, etc, so I untied these layers. This reduces the complexity for the users as the number of parameters to most of the symbols and session APIs now was reduced while not adding more state to all the map instances by only having data that is needed to split the kernel (kallsyms and ELF symtab sections) maps and do vmlinux relocation on the main kernel map.

2010-01-29perf_events: Fix sample_period transfer on inheritPeter Zijlstra
One problem with frequency driven counters is that we cannot predict the rate at which they trigger, therefore we have to start them at period=1, this causes a ramp up effect. However, if we fail to propagate the stable state on fork each new child will have to ramp up again. This can lead to significant artifacts in sample data.

2010-01-29perf_events, x86: Improve x86 event schedulingStephane Eranian
This patch improves event scheduling by maximizing the use of PMU registers regardless of the order in which events are created in a group. The algorithm takes into account the list of counter constraints for each event. It assigns events to counters from the most constrained, i.e., works on only one counter, to the least constrained, i.e., works on any counter. Intel Fixed counter events and the BTS special event are also handled via this algorithm which is designed to be fairly generic. The patch also updates the validation of an event to use the scheduling algorithm. This will cause early failure in perf_event_open(). The 2nd version of this patch follows the model used by PPC, by running the scheduling algorithm and the actual assignment separately. Actual assignment takes place in hw_perf_enable() whereas scheduling is implemented in hw_perf_group_sched_in() and x86_pmu_enable().

hw_breakpoint_handler Processing of debug exceptions in do_debug() can stop if it originated from a hw-breakpoint exception by returning NOTIFY_STOP in most cases. But for certain cases such as: a) user-space breakpoints with pending SIGTRAP signal delivery (as in the case of ptrace induced breakpoints). b) exceptions due to other causes than breakpoints We will continue to process the exception by returning NOTIFY_DONE.

2010-01-29perf: Factorize trace events raw sample buffer operationsXiao Guangrong
Introduce ftrace_perf_buf_prepare() and ftrace_perf_buf_submit() to gather the common code that operates on raw events sampling buffer. This cleans up redundant code between regular trace events, syscall events and kprobe events. Changelog v1->v2: - Rename function name as per Masami and Frederic's suggestion - Add __kprobes for ftrace_perf_buf_prepare() and make ftrace_perf_buf_submit() inline as per Masami's suggestion - Export ftrace_perf_buf_prepare since modules will use it Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> LKML-Reference: <4B60E92D.9000808@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>
2010-01-28perf: Fix inconsistency between IP and callchain samplingAnton Blanchard
When running perf across all cpus with backtracing (-a -g), sometimes we get samples without associated backtraces: 23.44% init [kernel] [k] restore 11.46% init eeba0c [k] 0x00000000eeba0c 6.77% swapper [kernel] [k] .perf_ctx_adjust_freq 5.73% init [kernel] [k] .__trace_hcall_entry 4.69% perf libc-2.9.so [.] 0x0000000006bb8c | |--11.11%-- 0xfffa941bbbc It turns out the backtrace code has a check for the idle task and the IP sampling does not. This creates problems when profiling an interrupt heavy workload (in my case 10Gbit ethernet) since we get no backtraces for interrupts received while idle (ie most of the workload). Right now x86 and sh check that current is not NULL, which should never happen so remove that too. Idle task's exclusion must be performed from the core code, on top of perf_event_attr:exclude_idle.

2010-01-28hw_breakpoints: Release the bp slot if arch_validate_hwbkpt_settings() fails.Mahesh Salgaonkar
On a given architecture, when hardware breakpoint registration fails due to un-supported access type (read/write/execute), we lose the bp slot since register_perf_hw_breakpoint() does not release the bp slot on failure. Hence, any subsequent hardware breakpoint registration starts failing with 'no space left on device' error. This patch introduces error handling in register_perf_hw_breakpoint() function and releases bp slot on error.
