perf stat: Document --detailed option

2016-05-04T21:51:25Z

commit f594bae08183fb6b57db55387794ece3e1edf6f6 upstream. I'm surprised this remained undocumented since at least 2011. And it is actually a very useful switch, as Steve and I came to realize recently. Add the text from 2cba3ffb9a9d ("perf stat: Add -d -d and -d -d -d options to show more CPU events") which added the incrementing aspect to -d.

efi: Make efivarfs entries immutable by default

2016-03-16T15:42:21Z

commit ed8b0de5a33d2a2557dce7f9429dca8cb5bc5879 upstream. "rm -rf" is bricking some peoples' laptops because of variables being used to store non-reinitializable firmware driver data that's required to POST the hardware. These are 100% bugs, and they need to be fixed, but in the mean time it shouldn't be easy to *accidentally* brick machines. We have to have delete working, and picking which variables do and don't work for deletion is quite intractable, so instead make everything immutable by default (except for a whitelist), and make tools that aren't quite so broad-spectrum unset the immutable flag.

tools lib traceevent: Fix output of %llu for 64 bit values read on 32 bit machines

2016-02-25T19:58:52Z

commit 32abc2ede536aae52978d6c0a8944eb1df14f460 upstream. When a long value is read on 32 bit machines for 64 bit output, the parsing needs to change "%lu" into "%llu", as the value is read natively. Unfortunately, if "%llu" is already there, the code will add another "l" to it and fail to parse it properly.

perf trace: Fix documentation for -i

2016-02-25T19:58:52Z

commit 956959f6b7a982b2e789a7a8fa1de437074a5eb9 upstream. The -i flag was incorrectly listed as a short flag for --no-inherit. It should have only been listed as a short flag for --input. This documentation error has existed since the --input flag was introduced in 6810fc915f7a89d8134edb3996dbbf8eac386c26 (perf trace: Add option to analyze events in a file versus live).

perf header: Fixup reading of HEADER_NRCPUS feature

2015-10-22T21:39:17Z

commit caa470475d9b59eeff093ae650800d34612c4379 upstream. The original patch introducing this header wrote the number of CPUs available and online in one order and then swapped those values when reading, fix it. Before: # perf record usleep 1 # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus $online\|avail$' # nrcpus online : 4 # nrcpus avail : 4 # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online # perf record usleep 1 # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus $online\|avail$' # nrcpus online : 4 # nrcpus avail : 3 # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online # perf record usleep 1 # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus $online\|avail$' # nrcpus online : 4 # nrcpus avail : 2 After the fix, bringing back the CPUs online: # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus $online\|avail$' # nrcpus online : 2 # nrcpus avail : 4 # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online # perf record usleep 1 # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus $online\|avail$' # nrcpus online : 3 # nrcpus avail : 4 # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online # perf record usleep 1 # perf report --header-only | grep 'nrcpus $online\|avail$' # nrcpus online : 4 # nrcpus avail : 4 Acked-by: Namhyung Kim Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Kan Liang Cc: Stephane Eranian Cc: Wang Nan Fixes: fbe96f29ce4b ("perf tools: Make perf.data more self-descriptive (v8)") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150911153323.GP23511@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

perf stat: Get correct cpu id for print_aggr

2015-10-22T21:39:17Z

commit 601083cffb7cabdcc55b8195d732f0f7028570fa upstream. print_aggr() fails to print per-core/per-socket statistics after commit 582ec0829b3d ("perf stat: Fix per-socket output bug for uncore events") if events have differnt cpus. Because in print_aggr(), aggr_get_id needs index (not cpu id) to find core/pkg id. Also, evsel cpu maps should be used to get aggregated id. Here is an example: Counting events cycles,uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/. (Uncore event has cpumask 0,18) $ perf stat -e cycles,uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/ -C0,18 --per-core sleep 2 Without this patch, it failes to get CPU 18 result. Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0,18': S0-C0 1 7526851 cycles S0-C0 1 1.05 MiB uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/ S1-C0 0 cycles S1-C0 0 MiB uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/ With this patch, it can get both CPU0 and CPU18 result. Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0,18': S0-C0 1 6327768 cycles S0-C0 1 0.47 MiB uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/ S1-C0 1 330228 cycles S1-C0 1 0.29 MiB uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/ Signed-off-by: Kan Liang Acked-by: Jiri Olsa Acked-by: Stephane Eranian Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: David Ahern Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Fixes: 582ec0829b3d ("perf stat: Fix per-socket output bug for uncore events") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1435820925-51091-1-git-send-email-kan.liang@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

perf hists: Update the column width for the "srcline" sort key

2015-10-22T21:39:17Z

commit e8e6d37e73e6b950c891c780745460b87f4755b6 upstream. When we introduce a new sort key, we need to update the hists__calc_col_len() function accordingly, otherwise the width will be limited to strlen(header). We can't update it when obtaining a line value for a column (for instance, in sort__srcline_cmp()), because we reset it all when doing a resort (see hists__output_recalc_col_len()), so we need to, from what is in the hist_entry fields, set each of the column widths.

perf tools: Fix copying of /proc/kcore

2015-10-22T21:39:17Z

commit b5cabbcbd157a4bf5a92dfc85134999a3b55342d upstream. A copy of /proc/kcore containing the kernel text can be made to the buildid cache. e.g. perf buildid-cache -v -k /proc/kcore To workaround objdump limitations, a copy is also made when annotating against /proc/kcore. The copying process stops working from libelf about v1.62 onwards (the problem was found with v1.63). The cause is that a call to gelf_getphdr() in kcore__add_phdr() fails because additional validation has been added to gelf_getphdr(). The use of gelf_getphdr() is a misguided attempt to get default initialization of the Gelf_Phdr structure. That should not be necessary because every member of the Gelf_Phdr structure is subsequently assigned. So just remove the call to gelf_getphdr(). Similarly, a call to gelf_getehdr() in gelf_kcore__init() can be removed also. Committer notes: Note to stable@kernel.org, from Adrian in the cover letter for this patchkit: The "Fix copying of /proc/kcore" problem goes back to v3.13 if you think it is important enough for stable.
