      perf tools: Read the build-ids from the header layer · 4778d2e4
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Keep the build-ids reading implementation in the data mapping
      but move its call to the headers so that we have a better
      control on it (offset seeking, size passing, etc..).

      perf tools: Split up build id saving into fetch and write · 57f395a7
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      We are saving the build id once we stop the profiling. And only
      after doing that we know if we need to set that feature in the
      header through the feature bitmap.
      
      But if we want a proper feature support in the headers, using a
      rule of offset/size pairs in sections, we need to know in
      advance how many features we need to set in the headers, so that
      we can reserve rooms for their section headers.
      
      The current state doesn't allow that, as it forces us to first
      save the build-ids to the file right after the datas instead of
      planning any structured layout.
      
      That's why this splits up the build-ids processing in two parts:
      one that fetches the build-ids from the Dso objects, and one
      that saves them into the file.

      perf tools: Synthetize the targeted process · de896721
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Don't forget to also synthetize the targeted process from perf
      record or we'll miss its dso in the events and then we won't be
      able to deal with its build-id.
      
      We are missing it because it is created after the existing
      synthetized tasks but before the counters are enabled and can
      send its mapping event.

      perf symbols: Use the buildids if present · 8d06367f
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      With this change 'perf record' will intercept PERF_RECORD_MMAP
      calls, creating a linked list of DSOs, then when the session
      finishes, it will traverse this list and read the buildids,
      stashing them at the end of the file and will set up a new
      feature bit in the header bitmask.
      
      'perf report' will then notice this feature and populate the
      'dsos' list and set the build ids.
      
      When reading the symtabs it will refuse to load from a file that
      doesn't have the same build id. This improves the
      reliability of the profiler output, as symbols and profiling
      data is more guaranteed to match.
      
      Example:
      
       [root@doppio ~]# perf report | head
       /home/acme/bin/perf with build id b1ea544ac3746e7538972548a09aadecc5753868 not found, continuing without symbols
        # Samples: 2621434559
        #
        # Overhead          Command                  Shared Object  Symbol
        # ........  ...............  .............................  ......
        #
             7.91%             init  [kernel]        [k] read_hpet
             7.64%             init  [kernel]        [k] mwait_idle_with_hints
             7.60%          swapper  [kernel]        [k] read_hpet
             7.60%          swapper  [kernel]        [k] mwait_idle_with_hints
             3.65%             init  [kernel]        [k] 0xffffffffa02339d9
      [root@doppio ~]#
      
      In this case the 'perf' binary was an older one, vanished,
      so its symbols probably wouldn't match or would cause subtly
      different (and misleading) output.
      
      Next patches will support the kernel as well, reading the build
      id notes for it and the modules from /sys.
      
      Another patch should also introduce a new plumbing command:
      
      'perf list-buildids'
      
      that will then be used in porcelain that is distro specific to
      fetch -debuginfo packages where such buildids are present. This
      will in turn allow for one to run 'perf record' in one machine
      and 'perf report' in another.
      
      Future work on having the buildid sent directly from the kernel
      in the PERF_RECORD_MMAP event is needed to close races, as the
      DSO can be changed during a 'perf record' session, but this
      patch at least helps with non-corner cases and current/older
      kernels.
