      This way we type less characters and it looks more like the
      kzalloc kernel counterpart.

      perf symbols: Simplify symbol machinery setup · b32d133a
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      And also express its configuration toggles via a struct.
      
      Now all one has to do is to call symbol__init(NULL) if the
      defaults are OK, or pass a struct symbol_conf pointer with the
      desired configuration.
      
      If a tool uses kernel_maps__find_symbol() to look at the kernel
      and modules mappings for a symbol but didn't call symbol__init()
      first, that will generate a one time warning too, alerting the
      subcommand developer that symbol__init() must be called.

      perf top: Always show the DSO column, even if its all the same · 7cc017ed
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Ingo found it confusing, and I agree with that, for 'perf
      report' its OK because it is static, but for a tool refreshing
      it the eventual switch from column to summary at the top may
      seem confusing.

      perf tools: Fix compilation on powerpc · ee3d2504
      Paul Mackerras authored
      Currently, perf fails to compile on powerpc with this error:
      
           CC util/header.o
       In file included from util/../perf.h:17,
                        from util/header.c:9:
       util/../../../arch/powerpc/include/asm/unistd.h:360:27: error:
       linux/linkage.h: No such file or directory make: ***
       [util/header.o] Error 1
      
      The reason is that we still have a #define __KERNEL__ in effect
      at the point where <asm/unistd.h> gets included, which means we
      get extra stuff that we don't need or want.
      
      This fixes the problem by undefining __KERNEL__ once we have
      included the file for which we need __KERNEL__ defined.

      perf tools: Add support for breakpoint events in perf tools · 1b290d67

      Add the breakpoint events support with this new sysnopsis:
      
        mem:addr[:access]
      
      Where addr is a raw addr value in the kernel and access can be
      either [r][w][x]
      
      Example to profile tasklist_lock:
      
      	$ grep tasklist_lock /proc/kallsyms
      	ffffffff8189c000 D tasklist_lock
      
      	$ perf record -e mem:0xffffffff8189c000:rw -a -f -c 1
      	$ perf report
      
      	# Samples: 62
      	#
      	# Overhead          Command  Shared Object  Symbol
      	# ........  ...............  .............  ......
      	#

      	     1.61%         events/0  [kernel]       [k] _raw_read_trylock
      	     1.61%         events/0  [kernel]       [k] _raw_read_unlock
      
      Coming soon:
      
       - Support for symbols in the event definition.
      
       - Default period to 1 for breakpoint events because these are
         not high frequency events. The same thing is needed for trace

      We don't use the software counter interface as:
      
      - We don't need to check against recursion, this is already done
        in hardware breakpoints arch level.
      
      - We already know the perf event we are dealing with when the
        event is to be committed.

      hw-breakpoints: Check the breakpoint params from perf tools · fdf6bc95
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      Perf tools create perf events as disabled in the beginning.
      Breakpoints are then considered like ptrace temporary
      breakpoints, only meant to reserve a breakpoint slot until we
      get all the necessary informations from the user.
      
      In this case, we don't check the address that is breakpointed as
      it is NULL in the ptrace case.
      
      But perf tools don't have the same purpose, events are created
      disabled to wait for all events to be created before enabling
      all of them. We want to check the breakpoint parameters in this
      case.

      perf_events: Restore sanity to scaling land · acd1d7c1
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      It is quite possible to call update_event_times() on a context
      that isn't actually running and thereby confuse the thing.
      
      perf stat was reporting !100% scale values for software counters
      (2e2af50b perf_events: Disable events when we detach them,
      solved the worst of that, but there was still some left).
      
      The thing that happens is that because we are not self-reaping
      (we have a caring parent) there is a time between the last
      schedule (out) and having do_exit() called which will detach the
      events.
      
      This period would be accounted as enabled,!running because the
      event->state==INACTIVE, even though !event->ctx->is_active.
      
      Similar issues could have been observed by calling read() on a
      event while the attached task was not scheduled in.
      
      Solve this by teaching update_event_times() about
      ctx->is_active.

      Move the update_event_times() call in __perf_event_exit_task()

      perf_events: Update the context time on exit · 5e942bb3
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      It appeared we did call update_event_times() on exit, but we
      failed to update the context time, which renders the former
      moot.
      
      Locking is a bit iffy, we call update_event_times under
      ctx->mutex instead of ctx->lock - the next patch fixes this.

      None of the callees depends on the structure being pre-initialized,
      so only initialize ->addr. This gets rid of the memcpy overhead.

      perf symbols: Fix ELF header errors during "perf kmem record" · e57cfcda
      Pekka Enberg authored
      The write_event() function in builtin-record.c writes out all
      mmap()'d DSOs including non-ELF files like GNOME resource files
      and such.
      
      Therefore, check for ELF_K_ELF in filename__read_build_id()
      before attempting to read the ELF header with gelf_getehdr().
      
      Fixes the following error messages when running "perf kmem
      record":
      
        penberg@penberg-laptop:~/src/linux/tools/perf$ perf kmem record
        ^C[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.753 MB perf.data (~32885 samples) ]
