      perf buildid-cache: Add new buildid cache if update target is not cached · a50d11a1
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Add new buildid cache if the update target file is not cached.
      
      This can happen when an old binary is replaced by new one after caching
      the old one. In this case, user sees his operation just failed.
      
      But it does not look straight, since user just pass the binary "path",
      not "build-id".
      
        ----
        # ./perf buildid-cache --add ./perf
        (update ./perf to new binary)
        # ./perf buildid-cache --update ./perf
        ./perf wasn't in the cache
        #
        ----
      
      This patch adds given new binary to cache if the new binary is
      not cached. So we'll not see the above error.
      
        ----
        # ./perf buildid-cache --add ./perf
        (update ./perf to new binary)
        # ./perf buildid-cache --update ./perf

      perf buildid-cache: Add ability to add kcore to the cache · fc1b691d
      Adrian Hunter 提交于
      kcore can be used to view the running kernel object code.  However,
      kcore changes as modules are loaded and unloaded, and when the kernel
      decides to modify its own code.  Consequently it is useful to create a
      copy of kcore at a particular time.  Unlike vmlinux, kcore is not unique
      for a given build-id.  And in addition, the kallsyms and modules files
      are also needed.  The tool therefore creates a directory:
      
      	~/.debug/[kernel.kcore]/<build-id>/<YYYYmmddHHMMSShh>
      
      which contains: kcore, kallsyms and modules.
      
      Note that the copied kcore contains only code sections.  See the
      kcore_copy() function for how that is determined.
      
      The tool will not make additional copies of kcore if there is already
      one with the same modules at the same addresses.
      
      Currently, perf tools will not look for kcore in the cache.  That is
      addressed in another patch.

      perf inject: Add missing bits · 11d232ec
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      New commands need to have Documentation and be added to command-list.txt
      so that they can appear when 'perf' is called withouth any subcommand:
      
      [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf
      
       usage: perf [--version] [--help] COMMAND [ARGS]
      
       The most commonly used perf commands are:
         annotate        Read perf.data (created by perf record) and display annotated code
         archive         Create archive with object files with build-ids found in perf.data file
         bench           General framework for benchmark suites
         buildid-cache   Manage build-id cache.
         buildid-list    List the buildids in a perf.data file
         diff            Read two perf.data files and display the differential profile
         inject          Filter to augment the events stream with additional information
         kmem            Tool to trace/measure kernel memory(slab) properties
         kvm             Tool to trace/measure kvm guest os
         list            List all symbolic event types
         lock            Analyze lock events
         probe           Define new dynamic tracepoints
         record          Run a command and record its profile into perf.data
         report          Read perf.data (created by perf record) and display the profile
         sched           Tool to trace/measure scheduler properties (latencies)
         stat            Run a command and gather performance counter statistics
         test            Runs sanity tests.
         timechart       Tool to visualize total system behavior during a workload
         top             System profiling tool.
         trace           Read perf.data (created by perf record) and display trace output
      
       See 'perf help COMMAND' for more information on a specific command.
      
      [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#
      
      The new 'perf inject' command hadn't so it wasn't appearing on that list.
      
      Also fix the long option, that should have no spaces in it, rename the faulty one
      to be '--build-ids', instead of '--inject build-ids'.

      perf buildid-cache: Add new command to manage build-id cache · ef12a141
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      For now it just has operations to examine a given file, find its
      build-id and add or remove it to/from the cache.
      
      Useful, for instance, when adding binaries sent together with a
      perf.data file, so that we can add them to the cache and have
      the tools find it when resolving symbols.
      
      It'll also manage the size of the cache like 'ccache' does.
