      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.

      perf evlist: Refcount mmaps · 82396986
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      We need to know how many fds are using a perf mmap via
PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT, so that we can know when to ditch an mmap,
refcount it.

v2: Automatically unmap it when the refcount hits one, which will happen
when all fds are filtered by perf_evlist__filter_pollfd(), in later
patches.

      tools lib api: Adopt fdarray class from perf's evlist · 1b85337d
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      The extensible file description array that grew in the perf_evlist class
can be useful for other tools, as it is not something that only evlists
need, so move it to tools/lib/api/fd to ease sharing it.

v2: Don't use {} like in:

 libapi_dirs:
	$(QUIET_MKDIR)mkdir -p $(OUTPUT){fs,fd}/

in Makefiles, as it will not work in some systems, as in ubuntu13.10.

v3: Add fd/*.[ch] to LIBAPIKFS_SOURCES (Fix from Jiri Olsa)

v4: Leave the fcntl(fd, O_NONBLOCK) in the evlist layer, remains to
    be checked if it is really needed there, but has no place in the
    fdarray class (Fix from Jiri Olsa)

v5: Remove evlist details from fdarray grow/filter tests. Improve it a
    bit doing more tests about expected internal state.

      Since we have access two evlist members in all these poll calls, provide
a helper.

This will also help to make the patch introducing the pollfd class more
clear, as the evlist specific uses will be hiden away

autogrow, no need to copy all events to a local pollfd array, just add
the timer and stdin file descriptors.

      perf evlist: Allow growing pollfd on add method · ad6765dd
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      This way we will be able to add more file descriptors to be polled,
like stdin or some timer fd.

At this point we might as well yank the pollfd class from evlist so that
it can be used in other places.

      perf evlist: We need to poll all event file descriptors · 033fa713
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      Because we want to notice when they get POLLHUP'ed, so that we can
figure out when all threads exited in a workload being monitored.

We can't just monitor the fds that were mmaped, we need to notice when
all the fds that were PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT'ed too, because the mmap
stays even after the fd that originally was used to do the mmap call
went away, its only when all the set-output fds for a mmap are gone that
the mmap is.

      perf evlist: Monitor POLLERR and POLLHUP events too · 8179672c
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      We want to know when the fd went away, like when a monitored thread
exits.

If we do not monitor such events, then the tools will wait forever on
events from a vanished thread, like when running:

 $ sleep 5s &
 $ perf record -p `pidof sleep`

This builds upon the kernel patch by Jiri Olsa that actually makes a
poll on those file descriptors to return POLLHUP.

It is also needed to change the tools to use
perf_evlist__filter_pollfd() to check if there are remainings fds to
monitor or if all are gone, in which case they will exit the
poll/mmap/read loop.

      perf evlist: Introduce perf_evlist__filter_pollfd method · 1ddec7f0
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      To remove all entries in evlist->pollfd[] that have revents matching at
least one of the bits in the specified mask.

It'll adjust evlist->nr_fds to the number of unfiltered fds and will
return this value, as a convenience and to avoid requiring direct access
to internal state of perf_evlist objects.

This will be used after polling the evlist fds so that we remove fds
that were closed by the kernel.
