    perf tools: Cache dso data file descriptor · c6580451
    Jiri Olsa 提交于
    Caching dso data file descriptors to avoid expensive re-opens
    especially during DWARF unwind.
    
    We keep dsos data file descriptors open until their count reaches
    the half of the current fd open limit (RLIMIT_NOFILE). In this case
    we close file descriptor of the first opened dso object.
    
    We've got overall speedup (~27% for my workload) of report:
     'perf report --stdio -i perf-test.data' (3 runs)
      (perf-test.data size was around 12GB)
    
      current code:
       545,640,944,228      cycles                     ( +-  0.53% )
       785,255,798,320      instructions               ( +-  0.03% )
    
         366.340910010 seconds time elapsed            ( +-  3.65% )
    
      after change:
       435,895,036,114      cycles                     ( +-  0.26% )
       636,790,271,176      instructions               ( +-  0.04% )
