      perf buildid-list: Fix --with-hits event processing · b5c874f1
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      When we use plain 'perf buildid-list' we use only what is in the buildid
table in the perf.data header. And those have absolute pathnames because
at 'perf record' time we used __perf_session__process_events and that
doesn't sets up the path shortening code in map__new() that happens if
symbol_conf.full_paths is false, the default.

On the other hand, when we use 'perf buildid-list --with-hits' we
process all the events using perf_session__process_events, adding
entries to the global DSO list _after_ removing the current directory
from the DSO name, for presentation purposes.

Because of that we end up having two entries in the DSO list when
recording events for binaries using relative pathnames.

Fix it minimally by setting symbol_conf.full_paths to true when marking
the DSOs with hits in 'perf buildid-list --with-hits', as used by 'perf
archive'

Right fix longer term is to shorten the path only at presentation time.
Will be done for 2.6.36.

      perf scripts python: Give field dict to unhandled callback · c0251485
      Pierre Tardy authored 
      trace_unhandled() callback does not allow to access event fields, this patch
resolves the problem.

It can also been used as a more pythonic and flexible way for script writters
to demux event types

This will for example greatly simplify pytimechart event demux.

      perf hist: fix objdump output parsing · 75d9ef17
      Konstantin Stepanyuk authored 
      hist_entry__annotate() runs objdump with -S option so the output may contain
lines of any format. If a line starts with a colon strtoull() returns 0 and
calculated offset will be negative. This causes perf annotate segfaults.

Make sure that strtoull() has parsed at least one digit.

      perf_events: Fix unincremented buffer base on partial copy · 74048f89
      Frederic Weisbecker authored 
      If a sample size crosses to the next page boundary, the copy
will be made in more than one step. However we forget to advance
the source offset for the next copy, leading to unexpected double
copies that completely mess up the traces.

This fixes various kinds of bad traces that have irrelevant
data inside, as an example:

	geany-4979  [001]  5758.077775: sched_switch: prev_comm=! prev_pid=121
		prev_prio=0 prev_state=S|D|Z|X|x ==> next_comm= next_pid=7497072
		next_prio=0

      perf_events: Fix event scheduling issues introduced by transactional API · 90151c35
      Stephane Eranian authored 
      The transactional API patch between the generic and model-specific
code introduced several important bugs with event scheduling, at
least on X86. If you had pinned events, e.g., watchdog,  and were
over-committing the PMU, you would get bogus counts. The bug was
showing up on Intel CPU because events would move around more
often that on AMD. But the problem also existed on AMD, though
harder to expose.

The issues were:

 - group_sched_in() was missing a cancel_txn() in the error path

 - cpuc->n_added was not properly maintained, leading to missing
   actions in hw_perf_enable(), i.e., n_running being 0. You cannot
   update n_added until you know the transaction has succeeded. In
   case of failed transaction n_added was not adjusted back.

 - in case of failed transactions, event_sched_out() was called
   and eventually invoked x86_disable_event() to touch the HW reg.
   But with transactions, on X86, event_sched_in() does not touch
   HW registers, it simply collects events into a list. Thus, you
   could end up calling x86_disable_event() on a counter which
   did not correspond to the current event when idx != -1.

The patch modifies the generic and X86 code to avoid all those problems.

First, we keep track of the number of events added last. In case the
transaction fails, we substract them from n_added. This approach is
necessary (as opposed to delaying updates to n_added) because not all
event updates use the transaction API, e.g., single events.

Second, we encapsulate the event_sched_in() and event_sched_out() in
group_sched_in() inside the transaction. That makes the operations
symmetrical and you can also detect that you are inside a transaction
and skip the HW reg access by checking cpuc->group_flag.

With this patch, you can now overcommit the PMU even with pinned
system-wide events present and still get valid counts.

      perf_events, trace: Fix probe unregister race · 3771f077
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      tracepoint_probe_unregister() does not synchronize against the probe
callbacks, so do that explicitly. This properly serializes the callbacks
and the free of the data used therein.

Also, use this_cpu_ptr() where possible.

      perf_events: Fix races in group composition · 8a49542c
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      Group siblings don't pin each-other or the parent, so when we destroy
events we must make sure to clean up all cross referencing pointers.

In particular, for destruction of a group leader we must be able to
find all its siblings and remove their reference to it.

This means that detaching an event from its context must not detach it
from the group, otherwise we can end up failing to clear all pointers.

Solve this by clearly separating the attachment to a context and
attachment to a group, and keep the group composed until we destroy
the events.

      perf_events: Fix races and clean up perf_event and perf_mmap_data interaction · ac9721f3
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      In order to move toward separate buffer objects, rework the whole
perf_mmap_data construct to be a more self-sufficient entity, one
with its own lifetime rules.

This greatly sanitizes the whole output redirection code, which
was riddled with bugs and races.
