The minus operator has higher precedence than ?: Add parentheses around ?: fix this. Before this patch: $ echo 'p:myprobe do_sys_open' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events $ perf probe -l -k ../vmlinux kprobes:myprobe (on do_sys_open) After this patch: $ echo 'p:myprobe do_sys_open' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events $ perf probe -l -k ../vmlinux kprobes:myprobe (on do_sys_open@linux.git/fs/open.c) Signed-off-by: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1425034373-14511-1-git-send-email-hekuang@huawei.comSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Currently, the perf diff only works with same binaries. That's because it compares the symbol start address. It doesn't work if the perf.data comes from different binaries. This patch matches the symbol names. Actually, perf diff once intended to compare the symbol names. The commit as below can look for a pair by name. 604c5c92 (perf diff: Change the default sort order to "dso,symbol") However, at that time, perf diff used a global list of dsos. That means the binaries which has same name can only be loaded once. That's a problem for comparing different binaries. For example, we have an old binary and an updated binary. They very likely have same name and most of the functions, so only dsos from old binary will be loaded. When processing the data from updated binary, perf still use the symbol information from old binary. That's wrong. Then the commit as below used IP to replace symbol name. 9c443dfd ("perf diff: Fix support for all --sort combinations") >From that time, perf diff starts to compare the symbol address. The global dsos is discarded from a patch in 2010. a1645ce1 ("perf: 'perf kvm' tool for monitoring guest performance from host") However, at that time, perf diff already compared by address. So perf diff cannot work for different binaries as well. This patch actually rolls back the perf diff to original design. The document is also changed, so everybody knows the original design is to compare the symbol names. Here are some examples: The only difference between example_v1.c and example_v2.c is the location of f2 and f3. There is no change in behavior, but the previous perf diff display the wrong differential profile. example_v1.c noinline void f3(void) { volatile int i; for (i = 0; i < 10000;) { if(i%2) i++; else i++; } } noinline void f2(void) { volatile int a = 100, b, c; for (b = 0; b < 10000; b++) c = a * b; } noinline void f1(void) { f2(); f3(); } int main() { int i; for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++) f1(); } example_v2.c noinline void f2(void) { volatile int a = 100, b, c; for (b = 0; b < 10000; b++) c = a * b; } noinline void f3(void) { volatile int i; for (i = 0; i < 10000;) { if(i%2) i++; else i++; } } noinline void f1(void) { f2(); f3(); } int main() { int i; for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++) f1(); } [lk@localhost perf_diff]$ gcc example_v1.c -o example [lk@localhost perf_diff]$ perf record -o example_v1.data ./example [ perf record: Woken up 4 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.813 MB example_v1.data (~35522 samples) ] [lk@localhost perf_diff]$ gcc example_v2.c -o example [lk@localhost perf_diff]$ perf record -o example_v2.data ./example [ perf record: Woken up 4 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.824 MB example_v2.data (~36015 samples) ] Old perf diff result: [lk@localhost perf_diff]$ perf diff example_v1.data example_v2.data Event 'cycles' Baseline Delta Shared Object Symbol ........ ....... ................ ...............................

Add new buildid cache if the update target file is not cached. This can happen when an old binary is replaced by new one after caching the old one. In this case, user sees his operation just failed.

Some of the tracers bring their own id or pid fields and we can end up having two of them. This patch adds a "perf_" prefix to the 'generic' fields so we avoid a clash of the member names.

Adding 'perf data convert' to convert perf data file into different format. This patch adds support for CTF format conversion. To convert perf.data into CTF run: $ perf data convert --to-ctf=./ctf-data/ [ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './ctf-data/' ] [ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 11.268 MB (100230 samples) ] The command will create CTF metadata out of perf.data file (or one specified via -i option) and then convert all sample events into single CTF stream. Each sample_type bit is translated into separated CTF event field apart from following exceptions: PERF_SAMPLE_RAW - added in next patch PERF_SAMPLE_READ - TODO PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN - TODO PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK - TODO PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_USER - TODO PERF_SAMPLE_STACK_USER - TODO $ perf --debug=data-convert=2 data convert ...

To figure out if ordered_events are being used when doing a flush operation, it is enough to check if there were in fact some events queued, i.e. look at oe->nr_events.

Linus Torvalds authored
.. after extensive statistical analysis of my G+ polling, I've come to the inescapable conclusion that internet polls are bad. Big surprise. But "Hurr durr I'ma sheep" trounced "I like online polls" by a 62-to-38% margin, in a poll that people weren't even supposed to participate in. Who can argue with solid numbers like that? 5,796 votes from people who can't even follow the most basic directions? In contrast, "v4.0" beat out "v3.20" by a slimmer margin of 56-to-44%, but with a total of 29,110 votes right now. Now, arguably, that vote spread is only about 3,200 votes, which is less than the almost six thousand votes that the "please ignore" poll got, so it could be considered noise. But hey, I asked, so I'll honor the votes.

As it is, we have debugfs_remove() racing with symlink traversals. Supply ->evict_inode() and do freeing there - inode will remain pinned until we are done with the symlink body. And rip the idiocy with checking if dentry is positive right after we'd verified debugfs_positive(), which is a stronger check...

I've noticed significant locking contention in memory reclaimer around sb_lock inside grab_super_passive(). Grab_super_passive() is called from two places: in icache/dcache shrinkers (function super_cache_scan) and from writeback (function __writeback_inodes_wb). Both are required for progress in memory allocator. Grab_super_passive() acquires sb_lock to increment sb->s_count and check sb->s_instances. It seems sb->s_umount locked for read is enough here: super-block deactivation always runs under sb->s_umount locked for write. Protecting super-block itself isn't a problem: in super_cache_scan() sb is protected by shrinker_rwsem: it cannot be freed if its slab shrinkers are still active. Inside writeback super-block comes from inode from bdi writeback list under wb->list_lock. This patch removes locking sb_lock and checks s_instances under s_umount: generic_shutdown_super() unlinks it under sb->s_umount locked for write. New variant is called trylock_super() and since it only locks semaphore, callers must call up_read(&sb->s_umount) instead of drop_super(sb) when they're done.
