      perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variables · 1d037ca1
      由 Irina Tirdea 提交于 
      perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking
unused variables. The variable __used is defined to
__attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to
__attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is
also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning:
'__used__' attribute ignored

__unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition.
If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to
conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name
in its headers.

The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the
kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one
definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the
same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android.
This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with
__maybe_unused.

      perf evsel: Cache associated event_format · fcf65bf1
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      We already lookup the associated event_format when reading the perf.data
header, so that we can cache the tracepoint name in evsel->name, so do
it a little further and save the event_format itself, so that we can
avoid relookups in tools that need to access it.

Change the tools to take the most obvious advantage, when they were
using pevent_find_event directly. More work is needed for further
removing the need of a pointer to pevent, such as when asking for event
field values ("common_pid" and the other common fields and per
event_format fields).

This is something that was planned but only got actually done when
Andrey Wagin needed to do this lookup at perf_tool->sample() time, when
we don't have access to pevent (session->pevent) to use with
pevent_find_event().

      perf script: Fix format regression due to libtraceevent merge · 76a8349d
      由 David Ahern 提交于 
      Consider the commands:
    perf record -e sched:sched_switch -fo /tmp/perf.data  -a -- sleep 1
    perf script -i /tmp/perf.data

In v3.4 the output has the form (lines wrapped here)
    perf 29214 [005] 821043.582596: sched_switch:
prev_comm=perf prev_pid=29214 prev_prio=120
prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/5 next_pid=0 next_prio=120

In 3.5 that same line has become:
    perf 29214 [005] 821043.582596: sched_switch:
<...>-29214 [005]     0.000000000: sched_switch:
prev_comm=perf prev_pid=29214 prev_prio=120
prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/5 next_pid=0 next_prio=120

Note the duplicates in the output -- pid, cpu, event name. With
this patch the v3.4 output is restored:
    perf 29214 [005] 821043.582596: sched_switch:
prev_comm=perf prev_pid=29214 prev_prio=120
prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/5 next_pid=0 next_prio=120

v3:
Remove that pesky newline too. Output now matches v3.4 (pre-libtracevent).

v2:
Change print_trace_event function local to perf per Steve's comments.

      perf tools: Stop using a global trace events description list · da378962
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      The pevent thing is per perf.data file, so I made it stop being static
and become a perf_session member, so tools processing perf.data files
use perf_session and _there_ we read the trace events description into
session->pevent and then change everywhere to stop using that single
global pevent variable and use the per session one.

Note that it _doesn't_ fall backs to trace__event_id, as we're not
interested at all in what is present in the
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events in the workstation doing the analysis,
just in what is in the perf.data file.

This patch also introduces perf_session__set_tracepoints_handlers that
is the perf perf.data/session way to associate handlers to tracepoint
events by resolving their IDs using the events descriptions stored in a
perf.data file. Make 'perf sched' use it.

      perf: Have perf use the new libtraceevent.a library · aaf045f7
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      The event parsing code in perf was originally copied from trace-cmd
but never was kept up-to-date with the changes that was done there.
The trace-cmd libtraceevent.a code is much more mature than what is
currently in perf.

This updates the code to use wrappers to handle the calls to the
new event parsing code. The new code requires a handle to be pass
around, which removes the global event variables and allows
more than one event structure to be read from different files
(and different machines).

But perf still has the old global events and the code throughout
perf does not yet have a nice way to pass around a handle.
A global 'pevent' has been made for perf and the old calls have
been created as wrappers to the new event parsing code that uses
the global pevent.

With this change, perf can later incorporate the pevent handle into
the perf structures and allow more than one file to be read and
compared, that contains different events.

      Move the trace-event-parse.c code that originally came from trace-cmd into

the name of trace-cmd's file was parse-events.c too, but it conflicted
with the parse-events.c file in perf that parses the command line.

This tries to update the code with mimimal changes.

Perf specific code stays in the trace-event-parse.[ch] files and
the common parsing code is now in trace-parse-events.c and
trace-parse-events.h.

      perf tools: Fix broken build by defining _GNU_SOURCE in Makefile · 0a84f007
      由 David Daney 提交于 
      When building on my Debian/mips system, util/util.c fails to build
because commit 1aed2671 (perf kvm: Do
guest-only counting by default) indirectly includes stdio.h before the
feature selection in util.h is done.  This prevents _GNU_SOURCE in
util.h from enabling the declaration of getline(), from now second
inclusion of stdio.h, and the build is broken.

There is another breakage in util/evsel.c caused by include ordering,
but I didn't fully track down the commit that caused it.

The root cause of all this is an inconsistent definition of _GNU_SOURCE,
so I move the definition into the Makefile so that it is passed to all
invocations of the compiler and used uniformly for all system header
files.  All other #define and #undef of _GNU_SOURCE are removed as they
cause conflicts with the definition passed to the compiler.

All the features.h definitions (_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64
and _GNU_SOURCE) are needed by the python glue code too, so they are
moved to BASIC_CFLAGS, and the misleading comments about BASIC_CFLAGS
are removed.

This gives me a clean build on x86_64 (fc12) and mips (Debian).

      rcu: Use softirq to address performance regression · 09223371
      由 Shaohua Li 提交于 
      Commit a26ac245(rcu: move TREE_RCU from softirq to kthread)
introduced performance regression. In an AIM7 test, this commit degraded
performance by about 40%.

The commit runs rcu callbacks in a kthread instead of softirq. We observed
high rate of context switch which is caused by this. Out test system has
64 CPUs and HZ is 1000, so we saw more than 64k context switch per second
which is caused by RCU's per-CPU kthread.  A trace showed that most of
the time the RCU per-CPU kthread doesn't actually handle any callbacks,
but instead just does a very small amount of work handling grace periods.
This means that RCU's per-CPU kthreads are making the scheduler do quite
a bit of work in order to allow a very small amount of RCU-related
processing to be done.

Alex Shi's analysis determined that this slowdown is due to lock
contention within the scheduler.  Unfortunately, as Peter Zijlstra points
out, the scheduler's real-time semantics require global action, which
means that this contention is inherent in real-time scheduling.  (Yes,
perhaps someone will come up with a workaround -- otherwise, -rt is not
going to do well on large SMP systems -- but this patch will work around
this issue in the meantime.  And "the meantime" might well be forever.)

This patch therefore re-introduces softirq processing to RCU, but only
for core RCU work.  RCU callbacks are still executed in kthread context,
so that only a small amount of RCU work runs in softirq context in the
common case.  This should minimize ksoftirqd execution, allowing us to
skip boosting of ksoftirqd for CONFIG_RCU_BOOST=y kernels.

I've gone through and annotated some of the assignments that had side

and in some cases, just removed unused code.

In a few cases, we were assigning something useful, but not using it in
later parts of the function.

      perf: Fix warning while reading ring buffer headers · d00a47cc
      由 Frederic Weisbecker 提交于 
      commit e9e94e3b
"perf trace: Ignore "overwrite" field if present in
/events/header_page" makes perf trace launching spurious warnings
about unexpected tokens read:

	Warning: Error: expected type 6 but read 4

This change tries to handle the overcommit field in the header_page
file whenever this field is present or not.

The problem is that if this field is not present, we try to find it
and give up in the middle of the line when we realize we are actually
dealing with another field, which is the "data" one. And this failure
abandons the file pointer in the middle of the "data" description
line:

	field: u64 timestamp;	offset:0;	size:8;	signed:0;
	field: local_t commit;	offset:8;	size:8;	signed:1;
	field: char data;	offset:16;	size:4080;	signed:1;
                      ^^^
                      Here

What happens next is that we want to read this line to parse the data
field, but we fail because the pointer is not in the beginning of the
line.

We could probably fix that by rewinding the pointer. But in fact we
don't care much about these headers that only concern the ftrace
ring-buffer. We don't use them from perf.

Just skip this part of perf.data, but don't remove it from recording
to stay compatible with olders perf.data

      perf: Fix dynamic field detection · a1e2f60e
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      Checking if a tracing field is an array with a dynamic length
requires to check the field type and seek the "__data_loc"
string that prepends the actual type, as can be found in a trace
event format file:

	field:__data_loc char[] name;	offset:16;	size:4;	signed:1;

But we actually use strcmp() to check if the field type fully
matches "__data_loc", which may fail as we trip over the rest of
the type.

To fix this, use strncmp to only check if it starts with
"__data_loc".

      perf: Fix endianness argument compatibility with OPT_BOOLEAN() and introduce OPT_INCR() · c0555642
      由 Ian Munsie 提交于 
      Parsing an option from the command line with OPT_BOOLEAN on a
bool data type would not work on a big-endian machine due to the
manner in which the boolean was being cast into an int and
incremented. For example, running 'perf probe --list' on a
PowerPC machine would fail to properly set the list_events bool
and would therefore print out the usage information and
terminate.

This patch makes OPT_BOOLEAN work as expected with a bool
datatype. For cases where the original OPT_BOOLEAN was
intentionally being used to increment an int each time it was
passed in on the command line, this patch introduces OPT_INCR
with the old behaviour of OPT_BOOLEAN (the verbose variable is
currently the only such example of this).

I have reviewed every use of OPT_BOOLEAN to verify that a true
C99 bool was passed. Where integers were used, I verified that
they were only being used for boolean logic and changed them to
bools to ensure that they would not be mistakenly used as ints.
The major exception was the verbose variable which now uses
OPT_INCR instead of OPT_BOOLEAN.
