perf tools: Fix crash caused by accessing feat_ops[HEADER_LAST_FEATURE]

2018-08-24T11:06:51Z

[ Upstream commit 92ead7ee30c80f8852d28735cbcb9d79bc85f715 ] perf_event__process_feature() accesses feat_ops[HEADER_LAST_FEATURE] which is not defined and thus perf is crashing. HEADER_LAST_FEATURE is used as an end marker for the perf report but it's unused for perf script/annotate. Ignore HEADER_LAST_FEATURE for perf script/annotate, just like it is done in 'perf report'.

perf report: Introduce --ignore-vmlinux command line option

2018-03-21T15:53:42Z

We've had this in 'perf top' for quite a while, useful if one wishes to force using /proc/kcore to do annotation using the patched kernel instead of the ELF image it started from, aka vmlinux.

perf report: Support forced leader feature in pipe mode

2018-03-16T16:56:59Z

Stephane reported a problem with forced leader in pipe mode, where report does not force the group output. The reason is that we don't force the leader in pipe mode. This patch adds HEADER_LAST_FEATURE mark to have a point where we have all events and features received, and force the group if requested. $ perf record --group -e '{cycles, instructions}' -o - kill | perf report -i - --group SNIP # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ................ ....... ................ ....................... # 28.36% 0.00% kill libc-2.25.so [.] __unregister_atfork 26.32% 0.00% kill libc-2.25.so [.] _dl_addr 26.10% 0.00% kill ld-2.25.so [.] _dl_relocate_object 17.32% 0.00% kill ld-2.25.so [.] __tunables_init 1.70% 0.01% kill [unknown] [k] 0xffffffffafa01a40 0.20% 0.00% kill ld-2.25.so [.] _start 0.00% 48.77% kill ld-2.25.so [.] do_lookup_x 0.00% 42.97% kill libc-2.25.so [.] _IO_getline 0.00% 6.35% kill ld-2.25.so [.] strcmp 0.00% 1.71% kill ld-2.25.so [.] _dl_sysdep_start 0.00% 0.19% kill ld-2.25.so [.] _dl_start Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Tested-by: Stephane Eranian Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: David Ahern Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180314092205.23291-2-jolsa@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf report: Provide libtraceevent with a kernel symbol resolver

2018-03-08T14:30:51Z

So that beautifiers wanting to resolve kernel function addresses to names can do its work, and when we use "perf report" for output of "perf kmem record", we will get kernel symbol output. This patch affect the output of "perf report" for the record data generated by "perf kmem record" looks like below: Before patch: 0.01% call_site=ffffffff814e5828 ptr=0x99bb000 bytes_req=3616 bytes_alloc=4096 gfp_flags=GFP_ATOMIC 0.01% call_site=ffffffff81370b87 ptr=0x428a3060 bytes_req=32 bytes_alloc=32 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|GFP_ZERO After patch: 0.01% (aa_alloc_task_context+0x27) call_site=ffffffff81370b87 ptr=0x428a3060 bytes_req=32 bytes_alloc=32 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|GFP_ZERO 0.01% (__tty_buffer_request_room+0x88) call_site=ffffffff814e5828 ptr=0x99bb000 bytes_req=3616 bytes_alloc=4096 gfp_flags=GFP_ATOMIC Signed-off-by: Wang YanQing Acked-by: Jiri Olsa Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180308032850.GA12383@udknight-ThinkPad-E550 Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf report: Add support to display group output for non group events

2018-02-16T13:09:24Z

Add support to display group output for if non grouped events are detected and user forces --group option. Now for non-group events recorded like: $ perf record -e 'cycles,instructions' ls you can still get group output by using --group option in report: $ perf report --group --stdio ... # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ................ ....... ................ ...................... # 17.67% 0.00% ls libc-2.25.so [.] _IO_do_write@@GLIB 15.59% 25.94% ls ls [.] calculate_columns 15.41% 31.35% ls libc-2.25.so [.] __strcoll_l ... Committer note: We should improve on this by making sure that the first line states that this is not a group, but since the user doesn't have to force group view when really using grouped events (e.g. '{cycles,instructions}'), the user better know what is being done...

perf hists browser: Add parameter to disable lost event warning

2018-02-15T12:56:26Z

For overwrite mode, the ringbuffer will be paused. The event lost is expected. It needs a way to notify the browser not print the warning. It will be used later for perf top to disable lost event warning in overwrite mode. There is no behavior change for now.
