      perf trace: Ditch __syscall__arg_val() variant, not needed anymore · 325f5091
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      All callers now can use syscall__arg_val(arg, idx), be it to iterate
      thru the syscall arguments while taking into account alignment, or to
      get values for other arguments that affect how the current argument
      should be formatted (think of fcntl's 'cmd' and 'arg' arguments).

      perf trace: Use the syscall_fmt formatters without a tracepoint · d032d79e
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Previously we only used the syscall_fmt when we had sc->tp_format set,
      i.e. when we found the (enter, exit) pair in tracefs/events/syscalls/.
      
      But we really only need to use what is in sc->arg_fmt to apply the arg
      beautifiers to the syscall argument values, so do it.
      
      With this we will be able to provide formatters to the "clone" syscall,
      which doesn't have entries in tracefs/events/syscalls/.

      perf trace: Allow allocating sc->arg_fmt even without the syscall tracepoint · 5e58fcfa
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      At least "clone" doesn't have (enter, exit) entries tracefs/events/syscalls/,
      but we can provide a syscall_fmt and use it instead, as will be done for
      "clone" in the next cset.

      perf intel-pt: Always set no branch for dummy event · 91a8c5b8
      Kan Liang 提交于
      An earlier kernel patch allowed enabling PT and LBR at the same time on
      Goldmont.
      
      commit ccbebba4 ("perf/x86/intel/pt: Bypass PT vs. LBR exclusivity
      if the core supports it")
      
      However, users still cannot use Intel PT and LBRs simultaneously.  $
      sudo perf record -e cycles,intel_pt//u -b  -- sleep 1 Error: PMU
      Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts.
      
      PT implicitly adds dummy event in perf tool. dummy event is software
      event which doesn't support LBR.
      
      Always setting no branch for dummy event in Intel PT.

      perf intel-pt: Set no_aux_samples for the tracking event · 69d8bd8a
      Kan Liang 提交于
      The reason of introducing the tracking event (a dummy software event) is
      to collect side-band information. Additional sampling is wasteful.
      no_aux_samples should be set for tracking event.

      Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.13-20170718' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
      
      Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
      
      User visible changes:
      
      - Initial support for namespaces, using setns to access files in
        namespaces, grabbing their build-ids, etc. We still need to work
        more to deal with namespaces that vanish before we can get the
        needed data to do analysis, but this should be as good as what is
        in bcc now (Krister Johansen)
      
      - Add header record types to pipe-mode, now this command:
      
        $ perf record -o - -e cycles sleep 1 | perf report --stdio --header
      
        Will show the same as in non-pipe mode, i.e. involving a perf.data
        file (David Carrillo-Cisneros)
      
      - Implement a visual marker for fused x86 instructions in the annotate
        TUI browser, available now in 'perf report', more work needed to have
        it available as well in 'perf top' (Jin Yao)
      
        Further explanation from one of Jin's patches:
      
             │   ┌──cmpl   $0x0,argp_program_version_hook
       81.93 │   ├──je     20
             │   │  lock   cmpxchg %esi,0x38a9a4(%rip)
             │   │↓ jne    29
             │   │↓ jmp    43
       11.47 │20:└─→cmpxch %esi,0x38a999(%rip)
      
        That means the cmpl+je is a fused instruction pair and they should be
        considered together.
      
      - Record the branch type and then show statistics and info about
        in callchain entries (Jin Yao)
      
        Example from one of Jin's patches:
      
        # perf record -g -j any,save_type
        # perf report --branch-history --stdio --no-children

      - Beautify the fcntl syscall, which is an interesting one in the sense
        that infrastructure had to be put in place to change the formatters of
        some arguments according to the value in a previous one, i.e. cmd
        dictates how arg and the syscall return will be formatted.

      The root cause of the bug is that the following commit:
      
        487f05e1 ("perf/core: Optimize event rescheduling on active contexts")
      
      erronously assumed that event's 'pinned' setting determines whether the
      event belongs to a pinned group or not, but in fact, it's the group
      leader's pinned state that matters.
      
      This was discovered by Vince in the test case described above, where two instruction
      counters are grouped, the group leader is pinned, but the other event is not;
      in the regressed case the counters were off by 33% (the difference between events'
      periods), but should be the same within the error margin.
      
      Fix the problem by looking at the group leader's pinning.
