2012-05-22ktest: Add the snowball.conf example configSteven Rostedt1-0/+53
I used the snowball.conf in a live demo that demonstrated how to use ktest.pl with a snowball ARM board. I've been asked to included that config in the ktest repository. Here it is. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2012-05-22ktest: Add an example config that does cross compiling of several archsSteven Rostedt1-0/+260
Add the config that I use to test several archs. I downloaded several cross compilers from: http://kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/files/bin/x86_64/ and this config is an example to crosscompile several archs to make sure that your changes do not break archs that you are not working on.

2012-05-22ktest: Add useful example configsSteven Rostedt6-0/+517
I've been asked several times to provide more useful example configs for ktest.pl, as the sample.conf is too complex (because it explains all configs). This adds configs broken up by use case, and these configs are based on actual configs that I use on a daily basis. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2012-05-22ktest: Add USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG to avoid prompt on make_min_configSteven Rostedt2-1/+16
If the file that OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG exists then ktest.pl will prompt the user and ask them if the OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG should be used as the starting point for make_min_config instead of MIN_CONFIG. This is usually the case, and to allow the user to do so, which is helpful if the user is creating different min configs based on tests, and they know one is a superset of another test, they can set USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG to one, which will prevent kest.pl from prompting to use the OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG and it will just use it. If USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONIFG is set to zero, then ktest.pl will continue to use MIN_CONFIG instead. The default is that USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG is undefined. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2012-05-21ktest: Add MIN_CONFIG_TYPE to allow making a minum .config that has networkSteven Rostedt2-0/+24
Add a MIN_CONFIG_TYPE that can be set to 'test' or 'boot'. The default is 'boot' which is what make_min_config has done previously: makes a config file that is the minimum needed to boot the target. But when MIN_CONFIG_TYPE is set to 'test', not only must the target boot, but it must also successfully run the TEST. This allows the creation of a config file that is the minimum to boot and also perform ssh to the target, or anything else a developer wants. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2012-05-18ktest: Fix kernelrevision with POST_BUILDSteven Rostedt1-0/+11
The PRE_BUILD and POST_BUILD options of ktest are added to allow the user to add temporary patch to the system and remove it on builds. This is sometimes use to take a change from another git branch and add it to a series without the fix so that this series can be tested, when an unrelated bug exists in the series. The problem comes when a tagged commit is being used. For example, if v3.2 is being tested, and we add a patch to it, the kernelrelease for that commit will be 3.2.0+, but without the patch the version will be 3.2.0. This can cause problems when the kernelrelease is determined for creating the /lib/modules directory. The kernel booting has the '+' but the module directory will not, and the modules will be missing for that boot, and may not allow the kernel to succeed. The fix is to put the creation of the kernelrelease in the POST_BUILD logic, before it applies the POST_BUILD operation. The POST_BUILD is where the patch may be removed, removing the '+' from the kernelrelease. The calculation of the kernelrelease will also stay in its current location but will be ignored if it was already calculated previously. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2012-05-01ktest: Fix reboot on success stopping all rebootsSteven Rostedt1-2/+8
The change to let individual tests decide to reboot the machine on success of the entire test also prevented errors from rebooting when an error was detected. The "no_reboot" variable was only cleared if the test had reboot_on_success set. But the no_reboot variable also prevents the test rebooting when an error was detected even when REBOOT_ON_ERROR was set. Add a new "reboot_success" variable that is used to determine if the test should reboot on success and not touch the no_reboot variable. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2012-05-01ktest.pl: Fix combined usage of BISECT_REVERSE and BISECT_SKIPRuss Dill1-1/+1
When BISECT_REVERSE and BISECT_SKIP are used together with boot or test testing, build failures are treated as boot or test failures and 'git bisect bad' is executed instead of 'git bisect skip'. This is because the $ret value of -1 is treated as a build failure, but the $reverse_bisect logic does not properly handle this. Simple fix, only invert it if it is positive.

2012-04-20perf symbols: Read plt symbols from proper symtab_type binaryJiri Olsa1-7/+6
When loading symbols from DSO we check multiple paths of DSO binary until we succeed to load symbols ('.symtab' section). Once symbols are read we try to load also plt symbols. During the reading of plt symbols, the dso file is reopened from location given by dso->long_name. This could be wrong in case we want process buildid binaries. The change is to make the plt symbols being read from the DSO path, that normal symbols were read from.

Running 'perf kvm --host --guest --guestmount /tmp/guestmount record -a -g -- sleep 2' Was resulting in a segfault. For event type PERF_RECORD_MMAP, event->ip.pid is being used in perf_session__find_machine_for_cpumode, which is not correct. The event->ip.pid field happens to be 0 in this case and results in returning a NULL machine object. Finally, access to self->pid in machine__mmap_name, results in a segfault later.

2012-04-05perf annotate: Validate addr in symbol__inc_addr_samplesArnaldo Carvalho de Melo4-3/+38
This routine was checking only if the provided address was after sym->end, not if it was before sym->start. Fix that by checking for both and return in both cases -ERANGE, so that tools can communicate this to the user properly, or if they chose so, to abort. This problem was reported previously but the fixes involved either doing what was being done for the > end case, i.e. silently drop the sample, returning 0, or aborting at this function, which is in a lib (or better, is slated to be at some point) and shouldn't abort. The 'report' tool already checks this value and uses pr_debug to warn the user. This patch makes the 'top' tool check it too and warn once per map where such range problem takes place.

2012-04-05perf hists: Catch and handle out-of-date hist entry maps.David Miller1-0/+12
When a process exec()'s, all the maps are retired, but we keep the hist entries around which hold references to those outdated maps. If the same library gets mapped in for which we have hist entries, a new map will be created. But when we take a perf entry hit within that map, we'll find the existing hist entry with the older map. This causes symbol translations to be done incorrectly. For example, the perf entry processing will lookup the correct uptodate map entry and use that to calculate the symbol and DSO relative address. But later when we update the histogram we'll translate the address using the outdated map file instead leading to conditions such as out-of-range offsets in symbol__inc_addr_samples(). Therefore, update the map of the hist_entry dynamically at lookup/ creation time. Signed-off-by: David S.

Sometimes users have turbostat running in interval mode when they take processors offline/online. Previously, turbostat would survive, but not gracefully.

2012-03-29tools turbostat: reduce measurement overhead due to IPIsLen Brown1-0/+46
turbostat uses /dev/cpu/*/msr interface to read MSRs. For modern systems, it reads 10 MSR/CPU. This can be observed as 10 "Function Call Interrupts" per CPU per sample added to /proc/interrupts. This overhead is measurable on large idle systems, and as Yoquan Song pointed out, it can even trick cpuidle into thinking the system is busy. Here turbostat re-schedules itself in-turn to each CPU so that its MSR reads will always be local. This replaces the 10 "Function Call Interrupts" with a single "Rescheduling interrupt" per sample per CPU. On an idle 32-CPU system, this shifts some residency from the shallow c1 state to the deeper c7 state: # ./turbostat.old -s %c0 GHz TSC %c1 %c3 %c6 %c7 %pc2 %pc3 %pc6 %pc7 0.27 1.29 2.29 0.95 0.02 0.00 98.77 20.23 0.00 77.41 0.00 0.25 1.24 2.29 0.98 0.02 0.00 98.75 20.34 0.03 77.74 0.00 0.27 1.22 2.29 0.54 0.00 0.00 99.18 20.64 0.00 77.70 0.00 0.26 1.22 2.29 1.22 0.00 0.00 98.52 20.22 0.00 77.74 0.00 0.26 1.38 2.29 0.78 0.02 0.00 98.95 20.51 0.05 77.56 0.00 ^C i# ./turbostat.new -s %c0 GHz TSC %c1 %c3 %c6 %c7 %pc2 %pc3 %pc6 %pc7 0.27 1.20 2.29 0.24 0.01 0.00 99.49 20.58 0.00 78.20 0.00 0.27 1.22 2.29 0.25 0.00 0.00 99.48 20.79 0.00 77.85 0.00 0.27 1.20 2.29 0.25 0.02 0.00 99.46 20.71 0.03 77.89 0.00 0.28 1.26 2.29 0.25 0.01 0.00 99.46 20.89 0.02 77.67 0.00 0.27 1.20 2.29 0.24 0.01 0.00 99.48 20.65 0.00 78.04 0.00 cc: Youquan Song <youquan.song@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2012-03-28mm: move hugepage test examples to tools/testing/selftests/vmDave Young6-1/+363
hugepage-mmap.c, hugepage-shm.c and map_hugetlb.c in Documentation/vm are simple pass/fail tests, It's better to promote them to tools/testing/selftests. Thanks suggestion of Andrew Morton about this. They all need firstly setting up proper nr_hugepages and hugepage-mmap need to mount hugetlbfs. So I add a shell script run_vmtests to do such work which will call the three test programs and check the return value of them. Changes to original code including below: a. add run_vmtests script b. return error when read_bytes mismatch with writed bytes. c. coding style fixes: do not use assignment in if condition [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build the targets before trying to execute them] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: Documentation/vm/ no longer has a Makefile.

2012-03-26perf tools: Fix bug in raw sample parsingStephane Eranian1-0/+2
In perf_event__parse_sample(), the array variable was not incremented by the amount of data used by the raw_data. That was okay until we added PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK which depends on the array variable pointing to the beginning of the branch stack data. But that was not the case if branch stack was combined with raw mode sampling. That led to bogus branch stack addresses and count. The bug would show up with: $ perf record -R -b foo This patch fixes the problem by correctly moving the array pointer forward for RAW samples.
