perf map: Move structs and prototypes for map groups to a separate header

2019-02-06T13:00:38Z

And since machine.h only needs what is in there, make it stop including map.h and instead include this newly introduced map_groups.h instead.

perf machine: Use cached rbtrees

2019-01-25T14:12:09Z

At the cost of an extra pointer, we can avoid the O(logN) cost of finding the first element in the tree (smallest node), which is something required for nearly every operation dealing with machine->guests and threads->entries. The conversion is straightforward, however, it's worth noticing that the rb_erase_init() calls have been replaced by rb_erase_cached() which has no _init() flavor, however, the node is explicitly cleared next anyway, which was redundant until now.

perf tools: Handle PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL

2019-01-21T20:00:57Z

This patch handles PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL in perf record/report. Specifically, map and symbol are created for ksymbol register, and removed for ksymbol unregister. This patch also sets perf_event_attr.ksymbol properly. The flag is ON by default. Committer notes: Use proper inttypes.h for u64, fixing the build in some environments like in the android NDK r15c targetting ARM 32-bit. I.e. fixing this build error: util/event.c: In function 'perf_event__fprintf_ksymbol': util/event.c:1489:10: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 3 has type 'u64' [-Werror=format=] event->ksymbol_event.flags, event->ksymbol_event.name); ^ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors Signed-off-by: Song Liu Reviewed-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Alexei Starovoitov Cc: Daniel Borkmann Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: kernel-team@fb.com Cc: netdev@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190117161521.1341602-6-songliubraving@fb.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Allow specifying proc-map-timeout in config file

2018-12-17T17:56:57Z

The default timeout of 500ms for parsing /proc//maps files is too short for profiling many of our services. This can be overridden by passing --proc-map-timeout to the relevant command but it'd be nice to globally increase our default value. This patch permits setting a different default with the core.proc-map-timeout config file parameter.

perf thread: Add fallback functions for cases where cpumode is insufficient

2018-12-17T17:54:13Z

For branch stacks or branch samples, the sample cpumode might not be correct because it applies only to the sample 'ip' and not necessary to 'addr' or branch stack addresses. Add fallback functions that can be used to deal with those cases Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: David S.

perf machine: Record if a arch has a single user/kernel address space

2018-12-17T17:54:07Z

Some architectures have a single address space for kernel and user addresses, which makes it possible to determine if an address is in kernel space or user space. Some don't, e.g.: sparc. Cache that info in perf_env so that, for instance, code needing to fallback failed symbol lookups at the kernel space in single address space arches can lookup at userspace.

tools lib traceevent, perf tools: Rename pevent_set_* APIs

2018-08-13T18:22:10Z

In order to make libtraceevent into a proper library, variables, data structures and functions require a unique prefix to prevent name space conflicts. That prefix will be "tep_" and not "pevent_". This changes APIs: pevent_set_file_bigendian, pevent_set_flag, pevent_set_function_resolver, pevent_set_host_bigendian, pevent_set_long_size, pevent_set_page_size and pevent_get_long_size Signed-off-by: Tzvetomir Stoyanov (VMware) Cc: Andrew Morton Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Yordan Karadzhov (VMware) Cc: linux-trace-devel@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180808180701.256265951@goodmis.org Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf machine: Workaround missing maps for x86 PTI entry trampolines

2018-05-22T13:54:22Z

On x86_64 the PTI entry trampolines are not in the kernel map created by perf tools. That results in the addresses having no symbols and prevents annotation. It also causes Intel PT to have decoding errors at the trampoline addresses. Workaround that by creating maps for the trampolines. At present the kernel does not export information revealing where the trampolines are. Until that happens, the addresses are hardcoded.
