This provides a way to mark a counter to be enabled on the next exec. This is useful for measuring the total activity of a program without including overhead from the process that launches it. This also changes the perf stat command to use this new facility.

Vince Weaver reported a 'perf stat' measurement overhead in the count of retired instructions, which can amount to a +6000 instructions inflated count in the reported count. At present, perf stat creates its counters on the perf process. Thus the counters count the fork and various other activity in both the parent and child, such as the resolver overhead for resolving PLT entries for any libc functions that haven't been called before, such as execvp. This reduces the overhead by creating the counters on the child process after the fork, using a couple of pipes to synchronize so that the child process waits until the parent has created the counters before doing the exec. To eliminate the PLT resolution overhead on calling execvp, this does a dummy execvp first which will always fail. With this, the overhead of executing a program goes down from over 4800 instructions to about 90 instructions on powerpc (32-bit). This was measured with a statically-linked program written in assembler which only does the 3 instructions needed to call _exit(0). Before: $ perf stat -e 0:1:u ./three Performance counter stats for './three': 4858 instructions 0.001274523 seconds time elapsed After: $ perf stat -e 0:1:u ./three Performance counter stats for './three': 92 instructions 0.000468153 seconds time elapsed Reported-by: Vince Weaver <vince@deater.net> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <19016.41425.814043.870352@cargo.ozlabs.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Set attrs and nr_counters if no event is selected and !null_run. Setting of attrs should depend on number of counters, so we need to memcpy only for sizeof(default_attrs) Also set nr_counters as ARRAY_SIZE(default_attrs) in place of hardcoded value.

Increase size for event name to handle bigger names like 'L1-d$-prefetch-misses' Changed scaled counters from percentage to a multiplicative factor because the latter is more expressive. Also aligned the scaling factor, otherwise sometimes it looks like: 384 iTLB-load-misses (4.74x scaled) 452029 branch-loads (8.00x scaled) 5892 branch-load-misses (20.39x scaled) 972315 iTLB-loads (3.24x scaled) Before: 150708 L1-d$-stores (scaled from 23.57%) 428804 L1-d$-prefetches (scaled from 23.47%) 314446 L1-d$-prefetch-misses (scaled from 23.42%) 252626137 L1-i$-loads (scaled from 23.24%) 5297550 dTLB-load-misses (scaled from 23.96%) 106992392 branch-loads (scaled from 23.67%) 5239561 branch-load-misses (scaled from 23.43%) After: 1731713 L1-d$-loads ( 14.25x scaled) 44241 L1-d$-prefetches ( 3.88x scaled) 21076 L1-d$-prefetch-misses ( 3.40x scaled) 5789421 L1-i$-loads ( 3.78x scaled) 29645 dTLB-load-misses ( 2.95x scaled) 461474 branch-loads ( 6.52x scaled) 7493 branch-load-misses ( 26.57x scaled) Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Jaswinder Singh Rajput <jaswinderrajput@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> LKML-Reference: <1246051927.2988.10.camel@hpdv5.satnam> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

The PERF_EVENT_READ implementation made me realize we don't actually need the sample_type int the output sample, since we already have that in the perf_counter_attr information. Therefore, remove the PERF_EVENT_MISC_OVERFLOW bit and the event->type overloading, and imply put counter overflow samples in a PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE type. This also fixes the issue that event->type was only 32-bit and sample_type had 64 usable bits.

With the introduction of PERF_EVENT_READ we have the possibility to provide accurate counter values for individual tasks in a task hierarchy. However, due to the lazy context switching used for similar counter contexts our current per task counts are way off. In order to maintain some of the lazy switch benefits we don't disable it out-right, but simply iterate the active counters and flip the values between the contexts. This only reads the counters but does not need to reprogram the full PMU.

Previous code made an assumption that the power on value of global control MSR has enabled all fixed and general purpose counters properly. However, this is not the case for certain Intel processors, such as Atom - and it might also be firmware dependent. Each enable bit in IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL is AND'ed with the enable bits for all privilege levels in the respective IA32_PERFEVTSELx or IA32_PERF_FIXED_CTR_CTRL MSRs to start/stop the counting of respective counters. Counting is enabled if the AND'ed results is true; counting is disabled when the result is false. The end result is that all fixed counters are always disabled on Atom processors because the assumption is just invalid. Fix this by not initializing the ctrl-mask out of the global MSR, but setting it to perf_counter_mask.

Martin Schwidefsky reported "perf report" symbol resolution problems on S390. Since we only report MMAP, not MUNMAP, we have to deal with overlapping maps. We used to simply throw out the old map on the assumption whole maps got unmapped. This obviously doesn't deal with partial unmaps. However it appears some dynamic linkers do fancy partial unmaps (s390), so do something more elaborate and truncate the old maps, only removing them when they've been fully covered. This resolves (part of) the S390 symbol resolution problems.
