Introduce a 'struct arch', where arch specific stuff will live, starting with objdump's choice of comment delimitation character, that is '#' in x86 while a ';' in arm.

If the branch is 100% predicted then the "predicted" is hidden. Similarly, if there is no branch tsx abort, the "abort" is hidden. There is only cycles shown (cycle is supported on skylake platform, older platform would be 0). If no iterations, the "iterations" is hidden. Signed-off-by:

Create some branch counters in per callchain list entry. Each counter is for a branch flag. For example, predicted_count counts all the *predicted* branches. The counters get updated by processing the callchain cursor nodes. It also provides functions to retrieve or print the values of counters in callchain list. Besides the counting for branch flags, it also counts and returns the average number of iterations. Signed-off-by:

Create a new flag show_branchflag_count in symbol_conf. The flag is used to control if showing the branch flag counting information. The flag depends on if the perf.data has branch data and if user chooses the "branch-history" option in perf report command line. Signed-off-by:

Since the branch ip has been added to call stack for easier browsing, this patch adds more branch information. For example, add a flag to indicate if this ip is a branch, and also add with the branch flag. Then we can know if the cursor node represents a branch and know what the branch flag it has. The branch history code has a loop detection pass that removes loops. It would be nice for knowing how many loops were removed then in next steps, we can compute out the average number of iterations. For example: Before remove_loops(), entry0: from = 0x100, to = 0x200 entry1: from = 0x300, to = 0x250 entry2: from = 0x300, to = 0x250 entry3: from = 0x300, to = 0x250 entry4: from = 0x700, to = 0x800 After remove_loops() entry0: from = 0x100, to = 0x200 entry1: from = 0x300, to = 0x250 entry2: from = 0x700, to = 0x800 The original entry2 and entry3 are removed. So the number of iterations (from = 0x300, to = 0x250) is equal to removed number + 1 (2 + 1). iterations = removed number + 1; average iteractions = Sum(iteractions) / number of samples This formula ignores other cases, for example, iterations cross multiple buffers and one buffer contains 2+ loops. Because in practice, it's good enough. Signed-off-by:

To write config items to a particular config file, we should know where is each config section and item from. Current setting functionality of perf-config use autogenerating way by overwriting collected config items to a config file. For example, when collecting config items from user and system config files (i.e. ~/.perfconfig and $(sysconf)/perfconfig), perf_config_set can contain both user and system config items. So we should know where each value is from to avoid merging user and system config items on user config file. Signed-off-by:

Joonwoo reported that there's a mismatch between timestamps in script and sched commands. This was because of difference in printing the timestamp. Factor out the code and share it so that they can be in sync. Also I found that sched map has similar problem, fix it too. Committer notes: Fixed the max_lat_at bug introduced by Namhyung's original patch, as pointed out by Joonwoo, and made it a function following the scnprintf() model, i.e. returning the number of bytes formatted, and receiving as the first parameter the object from where the data to the formatting is obtained, renaming it from: char *timestamp_in_usec(char *bf, size_t size, u64 timestamp) to int timestamp__scnprintf_usec(u64 timestamp, char *bf, size_t size) Reported-by:

I'd like to see the name of tasks with perf sched map, but it only shows name of new tasks and then use short names after all. This is not good for long running tasks since it's hard for users to track the short names. This patch makes it show the names (except the idle task) when -v option is used. Probably we may make it as default behavior. Signed-off-by:

Sebastian noted that overhead for worker thread ops (throughput) accounting was producing 'perf' to appear in the profiles, consuming a non-trivial (i.e. 13%) amount of CPU. This is due to cacheline bouncing due to the increment of w->ops. We can easily fix this by just working on a local copy and updating the actual worker once done running, and ready to show the program summary. There is no danger of the worker being concurrent, so we can trust that no stale value is being seen by another thread. This also gets rid of the unnecessary cache alignment hack; its not worth it.

Instead of the one when another syscall takes place while another is being processed (in another CPU, but we show it serialized, so need to "interrupt" the other), and also when finally showing the sys_enter + sys_exit + duration, where we were showing the sample->time for the sys_exit, duh. Before: # perf trace sleep 1 <SNIP> 0.373 ( 0.001 ms): close(fd: 3 ) = 0 1000.626 (1000.211 ms): nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffd6ddddfb0) = 0 1000.653 ( 0.003 ms): close(fd: 1 ) = 0 1000.657 ( 0.002 ms): close(fd: 2 ) = 0 1000.667 ( 0.000 ms): exit_group( ) # After: # perf trace sleep 1 <SNIP> 0.336 ( 0.001 ms): close(fd: 3 ) = 0 0.373 (1000.086 ms): nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffe303e9550) = 0 1000.481 ( 0.002 ms): close(fd: 1 ) = 0 1000.485 ( 0.001 ms): close(fd: 2 ) = 0 1000.494 ( 0.000 ms): exit_group( ) [root@jouet linux]# Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-ecbzgmu2ni6glc6zkw8p1zmx@git.kernel.org Fixes: 752fde44 ("perf trace: Support interrupted syscalls") Signed-off-by: -

Not used at all, we need just the entry_time to calculate the syscall duration.

It popped up in perf testing that the worker consumes some amount of CPU. It boils down to the increment of `ops` which causes cache line bouncing between the individual threads. This patch aligns the struct by 256 bytes to ensure that not a cache line is shared among CPUs. 128 byte is the x86 worst case and grep says that L1_CACHE_SHIFT is set to 8 on s390. Signed-off-by:

We already have handling for errors when processing PERF_RECORD_ events, so instead of calling die() when not being able to alloc, propagate the error, so that the normal UI exit sequence can take place, the user be warned and possibly the terminal be properly reset to a sane mode.
