      perf report: Calculate and return the branch flag counting · 3dd029ef
      由 Jin Yao 提交于 
      Create some branch counters in per callchain list entry. Each counter
is for a branch flag. For example, predicted_count counts all the
*predicted* branches. The counters get updated by processing the
callchain cursor nodes.

It also provides functions to retrieve or print the values of counters
in callchain list.

Besides the counting for branch flags, it also counts and returns the
average number of iterations.

      perf report: Add branch flag to callchain cursor node · 410024db
      由 Jin Yao 提交于 
      Since the branch ip has been added to call stack for easier browsing,
this patch adds more branch information. For example, add a flag to
indicate if this ip is a branch, and also add with the branch flag.

Then we can know if the cursor node represents a branch and know what
the branch flag it has.

The branch history code has a loop detection pass that removes loops. It
would be nice for knowing how many loops were removed then in next
steps, we can compute out the average number of iterations.

For example:

Before remove_loops(),
entry0: from = 0x100, to = 0x200
entry1: from = 0x300, to = 0x250
entry2: from = 0x300, to = 0x250
entry3: from = 0x300, to = 0x250
entry4: from = 0x700, to = 0x800

After remove_loops()
entry0: from = 0x100, to = 0x200
entry1: from = 0x300, to = 0x250
entry2: from = 0x700, to = 0x800

The original entry2 and entry3 are removed. So the number of iterations
(from = 0x300, to = 0x250) is equal to removed number + 1 (2 + 1).

iterations = removed number + 1;
average iteractions = Sum(iteractions) / number of samples

This formula ignores other cases, for example, iterations cross multiple
buffers and one buffer contains 2+ loops. Because in practice, it's good
enough.

      perf callchain: Start moving away from global per thread cursors · 91d7b2de
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      The recent perf_evsel__fprintf_callchain() move to evsel.c added several
new symbol requirements to the python binding, for instance:

  # perf test -v python
  16: Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems      :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 18030
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  ImportError: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol:
  callchain_cursor
  test child finished with -1
  ---- end ----
  Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems: FAILED!
  #

This would require linking against callchain.c to access to the global
callchain_cursor variables.

Since lots of functions already receive as a parameter a
callchain_cursor struct pointer, make that be the case for some more
function so that we can start phasing out usage of yet another global
variable.

      perf tools: Enable LBR call stack support · aad2b21c
      由 Kan Liang 提交于 
      Currently, there are two call chain recording options, fp and dwarf.

Haswell has a new feature that utilizes the existing LBR facility to
record call chains. Kernel side LBR support code provides this as a
third option to record call chains. This patch enables the lbr call
stack support on the tooling side.

LBR call stack has some limitations:

 - It reuses current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record
   can not be enabled at the same time.

 - It is only available for user-space callchains.

However, it also offers some advantages:

 - LBR call stack can work on user apps which don't have frame-pointers
   or dwarf debug info compiled. It is a good alternative when nothing
   else works.

      perf callchain: Support handling complete branch stacks as histograms · 8b7bad58
      由 Andi Kleen 提交于 
      Currently branch stacks can be only shown as edge histograms for
individual branches. I never found this display particularly useful.

This implements an alternative mode that creates histograms over
complete branch traces, instead of individual branches, similar to how
normal callgraphs are handled. This is done by putting it in front of
the normal callgraph and then using the normal callgraph histogram
infrastructure to unify them.

This way in complex functions we can understand the control flow that
lead to a particular sample, and may even see some control flow in the
caller for short functions.

Example (simplified, of course for such simple code this is usually not
needed), please run this after the whole patchkit is in, as at this
point in the patch order there is no --branch-history, that will be
added in a patch after this one:

tcall.c:

volatile a = 10000, b = 100000, c;

__attribute__((noinline)) f2()
{
	c = a / b;
}

__attribute__((noinline)) f1()
{
	f2();
	f2();
}
main()
{
	int i;
	for (i = 0; i < 1000000; i++)
		f1();
}

            |                     f1 tcall.c:12

The default output is unchanged.

This is only implemented in perf report, no change to record or anywhere
else.

This adds the basic code to report:

- add a new "branch" option to the -g option parser to enable this mode
- when the flag is set include the LBR into the callstack in machine.c.

The rest of the history code is unchanged and doesn't know the
difference between LBR entry and normal call entry.

- detect overlaps with the callchain
- remove small loop duplicates in the LBR

Current limitations:

- The LBR flags (mispredict etc.) are not shown in the history
and LBR entries have no special marker.
- It would be nice if annotate marked the LBR entries somehow
(e.g. with arrows)

v2: Various fixes.
v3: Merge further patches into this one. Fix white space.
v4: Improve manpage. Address review feedback.
v5: Rename functions. Better error message without -g. Fix crash without
    -b.
v6: Rebase
v7: Rebase. Use NO_ENTRY in memset.
v8: Port to latest tip. Move add_callchain_ip to separate
    patch. Skip initial entries in callchain. Minor cleanups.

      perf tools powerpc: Adjust callchain based on DWARF debug info · a60335ba
      由 Sukadev Bhattiprolu 提交于 
      When saving the callchain on Power, the kernel conservatively saves excess
entries in the callchain. A few of these entries are needed in some cases
but not others. We should use the DWARF debug information to determine
when the entries are  needed.

Eg: the value in the link register (LR) is needed only when it holds the
return address of a function. At other times it must be ignored.

If the unnecessary entries are not ignored, we end up with duplicate arcs
in the call-graphs.

Use the DWARF debug information to determine if any callchain entries
should be ignored when building call-graphs.

Callgraph before the patch:
