      perf annotate: Fix missing number of samples for source_line_samples · 99094a5e
      Taeung Song authored 
      The option 'show-total-period' works fine without a option '-l'.  But if
running 'perf annotate --stdio -l --show-total-period', you can see a
problem showing only zero '0' for number of samples.

Before:
    $ perf annotate --stdio -l --show-total-period
...
       0 :        400816:       push   %rbp
       0 :        400817:       mov    %rsp,%rbp
       0 :        40081a:       mov    %edi,-0x24(%rbp)
       0 :        40081d:       mov    %rsi,-0x30(%rbp)
       0 :        400821:       mov    -0x24(%rbp),%eax
       0 :        400824:       mov    -0x30(%rbp),%rdx
       0 :        400828:       mov    (%rdx),%esi
       0 :        40082a:       mov    $0x0,%edx
...

The reason is it was missed to set number of samples of
source_line_samples, so set it ordinarily.

After:
    $ perf annotate --stdio -l --show-total-period
...
       3 :        400816:       push   %rbp
       4 :        400817:       mov    %rsp,%rbp
       0 :        40081a:       mov    %edi,-0x24(%rbp)
       0 :        40081d:       mov    %rsi,-0x30(%rbp)
       1 :        400821:       mov    -0x24(%rbp),%eax
       2 :        400824:       mov    -0x30(%rbp),%rdx
       0 :        400828:       mov    (%rdx),%esi
       1 :        40082a:       mov    $0x0,%edx
...

      Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.12-20170331' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

New features:

- Beautify the statx syscall arguments in 'perf trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

    e.g.:

  System wide strace like session:

  # trace -e statx
   16612.967 ( 0.028 ms): statx/4562 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffef195d660) = 0
   36050.891 ( 0.007 ms): statx/4576 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/passwd, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_DONT_SYNC, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffda9bf50f0) = 0
  ^C#

User visible changes:

- Handle unpaired raw_syscalls:sys_exit events in 'perf trace', i.e. we
  shouldn't try to calculate duration or print the timestamp for a missing
  matching raw_syscalls:sys_enter (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Do not print "cycles: 0" in perf report LBR lines in platforms not
  supporting 'cycles', such as Intel's Broadwell (Jin Yao)

- Handle missing $HOME env var (Jiri Olsa)

- Map 8-bit registers (al, bl, etc), not supported in uprobes_events, to
  the next best thing (ax, bx, etc) supported (Ravi Bangoria)

      perf trace: Beautify statx syscall 'flag' and 'mask' arguments · fd5cead2
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      To test it, build samples/statx/test_statx, which I did as:

  $ make headers_install
  $ cc -I ~/git/linux/usr/include samples/statx/test-statx.c -o /tmp/statx

And then use perf trace on it:

  # perf trace -e statx /tmp/statx /etc/passwd
  statx(/etc/passwd) = 0
  results=7ff
    Size: 3496            Blocks: 8          IO Block: 4096    regular file

  #

Using the test-stat.c options to change the mask:

  # perf trace -e statx /tmp/statx -O /etc/passwd > /dev/null

  #

Adding a probe to get the filename collected as well:

  # perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=result->name:string'
  Added new event:
    probe:vfs_getname    (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=result->name:string)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1

  # trace --no-inherit -e statx /tmp/statx -D -O /etc/passwd > /dev/null
     0.169 ( 0.007 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/passwd, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_DONT_SYNC, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffda9bf50f0) = 0
  #

Same technique could be used to collect and beautify the result put in
the 'buffer' argument.

Finally do a system wide 'perf trace' session looking for any use of statx,
then run the test proggie with various flags:

  # trace -e statx
   16612.967 ( 0.028 ms): statx/4562 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffef195d660) = 0
   33064.447 ( 0.011 ms): statx/4569 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_FORCE_SYNC, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffc5484c790) = 0
   36050.891 ( 0.023 ms): statx/4576 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffeb18b66e0) = 0
   38039.889 ( 0.023 ms): statx/4584 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7fff1db0ea90) = 0
  ^C#

This one also starts moving the beautifiers from files directly included
in builtin-trace.c to separate objects + a beauty.h header with
prototypes, so that we can add test cases in tools/perf/tests/ to fire
syscalls with various arguments and then get them intercepted as
syscalls:sys_enter_foo or raw_syscalls:sys_enter + sys_exit to then
format and check that the formatted output is the one we expect.

      perf tools: Do not fail in case of empty HOME env variable · 3e00cbe8
      Jiri Olsa authored 
      Currently we fail in the following case:

  $ unset HOME
  $ ./perf record ls
  $ echo $?
  255

It's because the config code init fails due to a missing HOME variable
value. Fix this by skipping the user config init if there's no HOME
variable value.

      perf trace: Handle unpaired raw_syscalls:sys_exit event · fd2b2975

      Which may happen when we start a tracing session and a thread is waiting
for something like "poll" to return, in which case we better print "?"
both for the syscall entry timestamp and for the duration.

E.g.:

Tracing existing mutt session:

  # perf trace -p `pidof mutt`
          ? (     ?   ): mutt/17135  ... [continued]: poll()) = 1
      0.027 ( 0.013 ms): mutt/17135 read(buf: 0x7ffcb3c42cef, count: 1) = 1
      0.047 ( 0.008 ms): mutt/17135 poll(ufds: 0x7ffcb3c42c50, nfds: 1, timeout_msecs: 1000) = 1
      0.059 ( 0.008 ms): mutt/17135 read(buf: 0x7ffcb3c42cef, count: 1) = 1
  <SNIP>

Before it would print a large number because we'd do:

  ttrace->entry_time - trace->base_time

And entry_time would be 0, while base_time would be the timestamp for
the first event 'perf trace' reads, oops.
