2014-04-30perf tests x86: Fix stack map lookup in dwarf unwind testJiri Olsa1-1/+1
Previous commit 'perf x86: Fix perf to use non-executable stack, again' moved stack map into MAP__VARIABLE map type again. Fixing the dwarf unwind test stack map lookup appropriately.

2014-04-30perf x86: Fix perf to use non-executable stack, againMathias Krause2-1/+11
arch/x86/tests/regs_load.S is missing the linker note about the stack requirements, therefore making the linker fall back to an executable stack. As this object gets linked against the final perf binary, it'll needlessly end up with an executable stack. Fix this by adding the appropriate linker note. Also add a global linker flag to prevent future regressions, as suggested by Jiri. This way perf won't get an executable stack even if we fail to add the .GNU-stack linker note to future assembler files. Though, doing so might create regressions the other way around, when (statically) linking against libraries needing an executable stack. But, apparently, regressing in that direction is wanted as it is an indicator of poor code quality -- or just missing linker notes.

2014-04-30perf machine: Search for modules in %s/lib/modules/%sRichard Yao1-4/+12
Modules installed outside of the kernel's build system should go into "%s/lib/modules/%s/extra", but at present, perf will only look at them when they are in "%s/lib/modules/%s/kernel". Lets encourage good citizenship by relaxing this requirement to "%s/lib/modules/%s". This way open source modules that are out-of-tree have no incentive to start populating a directory reserved for in-kernel modules and I can stop hex-editing my system's perf binary when profiling OSS out-of-tree modules. Feedback from Namhyung Kim correctly revealed that the hex-edits that I had been doing meant that perf was also traversing the build and source symlinks in %s/lib/modules/%s. That is undesireable, so we explicitly exclude them from traversal with a minor tweak to the traversal routine.

2014-04-20perf tools: Improve error reportingAdrien BAK2-2/+9
In the current version, when using perf record, if something goes wrong in tools/perf/builtin-record.c:375 session = perf_session__new(file, false, NULL); The error message: "Not enough memory for reading per file header" is issued. This error message seems to be outdated and is not very helpful. This patch proposes to replace this error message by "Perf session creation failed" I believe this issue has been brought to lkml: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/24/458 although this patch only tackles a (small) part of the issue. Additionnaly, this patch improves error reporting in tools/perf/util/data.c open_file_write. Currently, if the call to open fails, the user is unaware of it. This patch logs the error, before returning the error code to the caller.

2014-04-20perf kvm: Fix 'Min time' counting in report commandAlexander Yarygin1-0/+1
Every event in the perf-kvm has a 'stats' structure, which contains max/min/average/etc times of handling this event. The problem is that the 'perf-kvm stat report' command always shows that 'min time' is 0us for every event. Example: # perf kvm stat report Analyze events for all VCPUs: VM-EXIT Samples Samples% Time% Min Time Max Time Avg time [..] 0xB2 MSCH 12 0.07% 0.00% 0us 8us 7.31us ( +- 2.11% ) 0xB2 CHSC 12 0.07% 0.00% 0us 18us 9.39us ( +- 9.49% ) 0xB2 STPX 8 0.05% 0.00% 0us 2us 1.88us ( +- 7.18% ) 0xB2 STSI 7 0.04% 0.00% 0us 44us 16.49us ( +- 38.20% ) [..] This happens because the 'stats' structure is not initialized and stats->min equals to 0. Lets initialize the structure for every event after its allocation using init_stats() function. This initializes stats->min to -1 and makes 'Min time' statistics counting work: # perf kvm stat report Analyze events for all VCPUs: VM-EXIT Samples Samples% Time% Min Time Max Time Avg time [..] 0xB2 MSCH 12 0.07% 0.00% 6us 8us 7.31us ( +- 2.11% ) 0xB2 CHSC 12 0.07% 0.00% 7us 18us 9.39us ( +- 9.49% ) 0xB2 STPX 8 0.05% 0.00% 1us 2us 1.88us ( +- 7.18% ) 0xB2 STSI 7 0.04% 0.00% 1us 44us 16.49us ( +- 38.20% ) [..] Signed-off-by: Alexander Yarygin <yarygin@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1397053319-2130-3-git-send-email-borntraeger@de.ibm.com [ Fixing the perf examples changelog output ] Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com>

2014-04-14perf stat: Initialize statistics correctlyAndi Kleen1-2/+9
perf stat did initialize the stats structure used to compute stddev etc. incorrectly. It merely zeroes it. But one member (min) needs to be set to a non zero value. This causes min to be not computed at all. Call init_stats() correctly. It doesn't matter for stat currently because it doesn't use min, but it's still better to do it correctly. The other users of statistics are already correct.

The dwarf_getcfi() only checks .debug_frame section for CFI, but as most binaries only have .eh_frame it'd return NULL and it makes some variables inaccessible.

2014-04-14perf probe: Fix to handle errors in line_range searchingMasami Hiramatsu1-3/+4
As Namhyung reported(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/1/89), current perf-probe -L option doesn't handle errors in line-range searching correctly. It causes a SEGV if an error occured in the line-range searching. ---- $ perf probe -x ./perf -v -L map__load Open Debuginfo file: /home/namhyung/project/linux/tools/perf/perf fname: util/map.c, lineno:153 New line range: 153 to 2147483647 path: (null) Segmentation fault (core dumped) ---- This is because line_range_inline_cb() ignores errors from find_line_range_by_line() which means that lr->path is already freed on the error path in find_line_range_by_line(). As a result, get_real_path() accesses the lr->path and it causes a NULL pointer exception. This fixes line_range_inline_cb() to handle the error correctly, and report it to the caller. Anyway, this just fixes a possible SEGV bug, Namhyung's patch is also required.

2014-03-18perf symbols: Apply all filters to an addr_locationNamhyung Kim1-10/+4
Instead of bailing out as soon as we find a filter that applies, go on checking all of them so that we can zoom in/out filters. We also need to make sure we only update al->filtered after thread__find_addr_map(), because there is where al->filtered gets initialized to zero. This will increase the cost of processing when all we don't need this toggling, but will provide flexibility for the TUI and GTK+ interfaces, that will incur in creating the hist_entries just once.

By turning the addr_location->filtered member from a boolean to a u8 bitmap, reusing (and extending) the hist_filter enum for that. This patch doesn't change the logic at all, as it keeps the meaning of al->filtered !0 to mean that the entry _was_ filtered, so no change in how this value is interpreted needs to be done at this point.

2014-03-14perf tools: Speed up thread map generationDon Zickus1-8/+51
When trying to capture perf data on a system running spejbb2013, perf hung for about 15 minutes. This is because it took that long to gather about 10,000 thread maps and process them. I don't think a user wants to wait that long. Instead, recognize that thread maps are roughly equivalent to pid maps and just quickly copy those instead. To do this, I synthesize 'fork' events, this eventually calls thread__fork() and copies the maps over. The overhead goes from 15 minutes down to about a few seconds. -- V2: based on Jiri's comments, moved malloc up a level and made sure the memory was freed Signed-off-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Joe Mario <jmario@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1394808224-113774-1-git-send-email-dzickus@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
