      tools/power turbostat: fix IVB support · 650a37f3
      由 Len Brown 提交于 
      Initial IVB support went into turbostat in Linux-3.1:
553575f1
(tools turbostat: recognize and run properly on IVB)

However, when running on IVB, turbostat would fail
to report the new couters added with SNB, c7, pc2 and pc7.
So in scenarios where these counters are non-zero on IVB,
turbostat would report erroneous residencey results.

In particular c7 time would be added to c1 time,
since c1 time is calculated as "that which is left over".

Also, turbostat reports MHz capabilities when passed
the "-v" option, and it would incorrectly report 133MHz
bclk instead of 100MHz bclk for IVB, which would inflate
GHz reported with that option.

This patch is a backport of a fix already included in turbostat v2.

      tools/power turbostat: fix un-intended affinity of forked program · d15cf7c1
      由 Len Brown 提交于 
      Linux 3.4 included a modification to turbostat to
lower cross-call overhead by using scheduler affinity:

15aaa346
(tools turbostat: reduce measurement overhead due to IPIs)

In the use-case where turbostat forks a child program,
that change had the un-intended side-effect of binding
the child to the last cpu in the system.

This change removed the binding before forking the child.

This is a back-port of a fix already included in turbostat v2.

      syscalls, x86: add __NR_kcmp syscall · d97b46a6
      由 Cyrill Gorcunov 提交于 
      While doing the checkpoint-restore in the user space one need to determine
whether various kernel objects (like mm_struct-s of file_struct-s) are
shared between tasks and restore this state.

The 2nd step can be solved by using appropriate CLONE_ flags and the
unshare syscall, while there's currently no ways for solving the 1st one.

One of the ways for checking whether two tasks share e.g.  mm_struct is to
provide some mm_struct ID of a task to its proc file, but showing such
info considered to be not that good for security reasons.

Thus after some debates we end up in conclusion that using that named
'comparison' syscall might be the best candidate.  So here is it --
__NR_kcmp.

It takes up to 5 arguments - the pids of the two tasks (which
characteristics should be compared), the comparison type and (in case of
comparison of files) two file descriptors.

Lookups for pids are done in the caller's PID namespace only.

At moment only x86 is supported and tested.

      由 Jiri Olsa 提交于 
      We swap the sample_id_all header by u64 pointers. Some members of the

Together with other endianity patches, this change fixies perf report

Note, running following to test perf endianity handling:
test 1)
  - origin system:
    # perf record -a -- sleep 10 (any perf record will do)
    # perf report > report.origin

    to a target system and run:
    # tar xjvf perf.data.tar.bz2 -C ~/.debug
    # perf report > report.target
    # diff -u report.origin report.target

  - the diff should produce no output
    (besides some white space stuff and possibly different
     date/TZ output)

    perf script: Unify the expressions indicating "unknown"

    The perf script command uses various expressions to indicate "unknown".

    It is unfriendly for user scripts to parse it. So, this patch unifies
    the expressions to "[unknown]".

Looks like a copy-paste in that the other references use al.map but this one
should be node->map.

With this patch you get:

$ perf script -i /tmp/perf.data

      perf stat: Initialize default events wrt exclude_{guest,host} · 79695e1b
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      When no event is specified the tools use perf_evlist__add_default(), that will
call event_attr_init to initialize the KVM exclusion bits.

When the change was made to the tools so that by default guest samples would be
excluded, the changes were made just to the parsing routines and to
perf_evlist__add_default(), not to perf_evlist__add_attrs, that is used so far
just by perf stat to add multiple events, according to the level of detail
specified.

Recently the tools were changed to reconstruct the event name from all the
details in perf_event_attr, not just from .type and .config, but taking into
account all the feature bits (.exclude_{guest,host,user,kernel,etc},
.precise_ip, etc).

That is when we noticed that the default for perf stat wasn't the one for the
rest of the tools, i.e. the .exclude_guest bit wasn't being set.

I.e. the default, that doesn't call event_attr_init was showing the :HG
modifier:

  $ perf stat usleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':

While if one explicitely specifies the same events, which will make the parsing code

Fix it by introducing a perf_evlist__add_default_attrs method that will call
evlist_attr_init in all the perf_event_attr entries before adding the events.

      perf record: Fix branch_stack type in perf_record_opts · a00dc319
      由 Stephane Eranian 提交于 
      The attr.branch_sample_type field is defined as u64 by the API.  As
such, we need to ensure the variable holding the value of the branch
stack filters is also u64 otherwise we may lose bits in the future.

Note also that the bogus definition of the field in perf_record_opts
caused problems on big-endian PPC systems.  Thanks to Anshuman Khandual
for tracking the problem on PPC.

      perf tools: Reconstruct event with modifiers from perf_event_attr · c410431c
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      The modifiers:

  k		kernel space
  u		user space
  h		hypervisor
  G		guest
  H		host
  p, pp, ppp    precision level (PEBS)

that can be suffixed to an event were lost when tools used event_name()
to reconstruct them from the perf_event_attr entries in a perf.data
file.

Fix it by following the defaults used for these modifiers in the current
codebase, so:

 $ perf record -e instructions:u usleep 1 2> /dev/null
 $ perf evlist
 instructions:u
 $ perf record -e cycles:k usleep 1 2> /dev/null
 $ perf evlist
 cycles:k
 $ perf record -e cycles:kh usleep 1 2> /dev/null
 $ perf evlist
 cycles:kh
 $ perf record -e cache-misses:G usleep 1 2> /dev/null
 $ perf evlist
 cache-misses:G
 $ perf record -e cycles:ppk usleep 1 2> /dev/null
 $ perf evlist
 cycles:kpp
 $

Also works with 'top', 'report', etc.

More work needed to cover tracepoints and software events while not
dragging lots of baggage to the python binding, this is a minimal fix
for v3.5.

      perf top: Fix counter name fixup when fallbacking to cpu-clock · 895d9766
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      In 40491eaa "perf top: Update event name when falling back to cpu-clock"
we freed counter->name but didn't reset it to NULL, then when setting it
to the result of event_name(), event_name() would use the cached value,
which by now was overwritten and thus we got garbage or a zero lenght
string.

Fix it by just freeing and setting counter->name to NULL, this way
event_name() when called afterwards, will find the right counter name
and cache it again.

Found while trying 'cycles:pp' on a machine were :pp couldn't be
honoured. Probably the best fallback here is to tell the user that that
level of precision is not available on the PMU and then go removing 'p',
levels of precision till we get to play 'cycles' and if even that fails,
_then_ get to 'cpu-clock'.

But that is the matter for another patch, this one just needs to fix the
caching issue, which in the end will show 'cpu-clock' when tools ask for
the event name being used, which clarifies things for the user, that
will see that 'cycles:pp' or whatever not support event is not being
used, some sort of fallback happened.
