      perf evsel: Subclassing · ce8ccff5
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      Provide a method to be called at tool start to config the perf_evsel
instance size, together with optional constructor and destructor.

This will be used so that perf_evsel doesn't always include a struct
hists, tools that works with hists/hist_entries, like report, top and
annotate, will, at start, tell the evsel class the size they need per
instance.

v2: Don't use exit as a name of a member of function parameter, as this
    breaks the build on at least fedora14 and rhel6.

      perf session: Remove last reference to hists struct · 2a1731fb
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      Now perf_session doesn't require that the evsels in its evlist are hists
containing ones.

Tools that are hists based and want to do per evsel events_stats
updates, if at some point this turns into a necessity, should do it in
the tool specific code, keeping the session class hists agnostic.

      perf session: Don't count per evsel events · c2329ade
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE was not being counted here and is the only per-evsel
thing anyway, the other events were not mapping to a evsel.

With this we don't require that evsels used with a perf_session need to
have space for hists, like the ones in annotate, report, top.

      perf tools: Fix build breakage on arm64 targets · 660d1329
      Will Deacon authored 
      Attempting to build the perf tool for an arm64 target results in the
following failure:

  arch/arm64/util/unwind-libunwind.c: In function 'libunwind__arch_reg_id':
  arch/arm64/util/unwind-libunwind.c:77:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'pr_err'
     pr_err("unwind: invalid reg id %d\n", regnum);
     ^
  arch/arm64/util/unwind-libunwind.c:77:3: error: nested extern declaration of 'pr_err'

This is due to commit 84f5d36f ("perf tools: Move pr_* debug macros
into debug object") moving the pr_* macros into a new header file, but
failing to update architectures other than x86.

This patch adds the missing include, and fixes the build again.

      perf symbols: Improve DSO long names lookup speed with rbtree · 4598a0a6
      Waiman Long authored 
      With workload that spawns and destroys many threads and processes, it
was found that perf-mem could took a long time to post-process the perf
data after the target workload had completed its operation.

The performance bottleneck was found to be the lookup and insertion of
the new DSO structures (thousands of them in this case).

In a dual-socket Ivy-Bridge E7-4890 v2 machine (30-core, 60-thread), the
perf profile below shows what perf was doing after the profiled AIM7
shared workload completed:

-     83.94%  perf  libc-2.11.3.so     [.] __strcmp_sse42
   - __strcmp_sse42
      - 99.82% map__new
           machine__process_mmap_event
           perf_session_deliver_event
           perf_session__process_event
           __perf_session__process_events
           cmd_record
           cmd_mem
           run_builtin
           main
           __libc_start_main
-     13.17%  perf  perf               [.] __dsos__findnew
     __dsos__findnew
     map__new
     machine__process_mmap_event
     perf_session_deliver_event
     perf_session__process_event
     __perf_session__process_events
     cmd_record
     cmd_mem
     run_builtin
     main
     __libc_start_main

So about 97% of CPU times were spent in the map__new() function trying
to insert new DSO entry into the DSO linked list. The whole
post-processing step took about 9 minutes.

The DSO structures are currently searched linearly. So the total
processing time will be proportional to n^2.

To overcome this performance problem, the DSO code is modified to also
put the DSO structures in a RB tree sorted by its long name in
additional to being in a simple linked list. With this change, the
processing time will become proportional to n*log(n) which will be much
quicker for large n. However, the short name will still be searched
using the old linear searching method.  With that patch in place, the
same perf-mem post-processing step took less than 30 seconds to
complete.

      perf symbols: Encapsulate dsos list head into struct dsos · 8fa7d87f
      Waiman Long authored 
      This is a precursor patch to enable long name searching of DSOs using
a rbtree.

In this patch, a new dsos structure is created which contains only a
list head structure for the moment.

The new dsos structure is used, in turn, in the machine structure for
the user_dsos and kernel_dsos fields.

Only the following 3 dsos functions are modified to accept the new dsos
structure parameter instead of list_head:

 - dsos__add()
 - dsos__find()
 - __dsos__findnew()

      perf evlist: Unmap when all refcounts to fd are gone and events drained · e4b356b5
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      As noticed by receiving a POLLHUP for all its pollfd entries.

That will remove the refcount taken in perf_evlist__mmap_per_evsel(),
and when all events are consumed via perf_evlist__mmap_read() +
perf_evlist__mmap_consume(), the ring buffer will be unmap'ed.

Thanks to Jiri Olsa for pointing out that we must wait till all events
are consumed, not being ok to unmmap just when receiving all the
POLLHUPs.

      tools lib fd array: Allow associating an integer cookie with each entry · 2171a925
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      We will use this in perf's evlist class so that it can, at
fdarray__filter() time, to unmap the associated ring buffer.

We may need to have further info associated with each fdarray entry, in
that case we'll make that int array a 'union fdarray_priv' one and put a
pointer there so that users can stash whatever they want there. For now,
an int is enough tho.

v2: Add clarification to the per array entry priv area, as well as make
    it a union, which makes usage a bit longer, but if/when we make it
    use more space by allowing per entry pointers existing users source
    code will not have to be changed, just rebuilt.
