      perf annotate: Use build-ids to find the right DSO · b36f19d5
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      We were still using the pathname found on the MMAP event, that could not
      be the one we used when recording, so use the build-id cache for that,
      only falling back to use the pathname in the MMAP event if no build-ids
      are available.
      
      With this we now also are able to do secure, seamless offline annotation.
      
      Example:

      perf: Fix unaligned accesses while fetching trace values · 85cb68b2
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Accessing trace values of an 8 size may end up in a segfault
      on archs that can't deal with misaligned access, which is the
      case for sparc 64. This is because PERF_SAMPLE_RAW are aligned
      to 4 and not to 8.
      
      Fix this on the macros that get the values of 8 size.
      
      This fixes segfaults on perf tools in sparc 64.

      perf: Use read() instead of lseek() in trace_event_read.c:skip() · cbb5cf7f
      Tom Zanussi 提交于
      This is a small fix for a problem affecting live-mode, introduced
      recently:
      
      root@tropicana:~# perf trace rwtop
      perf trace started with Perl
      script /root/libexec/perf-core/scripts/perl/rwtop.pl
      
        Fatal: did not read header event
      
      commit d00a47cc added a skip()
      function to skip over e.g. header_page, but this doesn't work for
      live mode.  This patch re-implements skip() to use read() instead of
      lseek() to fix that.

      The changes made to support host and guest machines in a session, that

      perf report: Report number of events, not samples · c82ee828
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Number of samples is meaningless after we switched to auto-freq, so
      report the number of events, i.e. not the sum of the different periods,
      but the number PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE emitted by the kernel.
      
      While doing this I noticed that naming "count" to the sum of all the
      event periods can be confusing, so rename it to .period, just like in
      struct sample.data, so that we become more consistent.
      
      This helps with the next step, that was to record in struct hist_entry
      the number of sample events for each instance, we need that because we
      use it to generate the number of events when applying filters to the
      tree of hist entries like it is being done in the TUI report browser.

      The events_stats.total field is too generic, rename it to .total_period,

      Ditto for events_stats.lost, that is the sum of all lost_event.lost
      fields, i.e. the number of events the kernel dropped.
      
      Looking at the users, builtin-sched.c can make use of these fields and

      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Now we don't anymore use popen to run 'perf annotate' for the selected
      symbol, instead we collect per address samplings when processing samples
      in 'perf report' if we're using the newt browser, then we use this data
      directly to do annotation.
      
      Done this way we can actually traverse the objdump_line objects
      directly, matching the addresses to the collected samples and colouring
      them appropriately using lower level slang routines.
      
      The new ui_browser class will be reused for the main, callchain aware,
      histogram browser, when it will be made generic and don't assume that
      the objects are always instances of the objdump_line class maintained
      using list_heads.

      perf ui: Add ui_helpline methods · 3798ed7b
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Initially this was just to be able to have a printf like method to
      prepare the formatted string and then pass to newtPushHelpLine, but as
      we already have for ui_progress, etc, its a step in identifying a
      restricted, highlevel set of widgets we can then have implementations
      for multiple widget sets (GTK, etc).

      Those are really not specific to the newt code, can be used by other UI
      frontends.

      perf: Fix static strings treated like dynamic ones · de068ec0
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      The raw_field_ptr() helper, used to retrieve the address of a field
      inside a trace event, treats every strings as if they were dynamic
      ie: having a secondary level of indirection to retrieve their
      contents.
      
      FIELD_IS_STRING doesn't mean FIELD_IS_DYNAMIC, we only need to
      compute the secondary dereference for the latter case.
      
      This fixes perf sched segfaults, bad cmdline report and may be
      some other bugs.

      Only print the script start/stop messages in verbose mode - users
      normally don't care and it just clutters up the output.

      Better done when we are adding entries, be it initially of when we're
      re-sorting the histograms.

      perf hist: Introduce hists class and move lots of methods to it · 1c02c4d2
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      In cbbc79a5 we introduced support for multiple events by introducing a
      new "event_stat_id" struct and then made several perf_session methods
      receive a point to it instead of a pointer to perf_session, and kept the
      event_stats and hists rb_tree in perf_session.
      
      While working on the new newt based browser, I realised that it would be
      better to introduce a new class, "hists" (short for "histograms"),
      renaming the "event_stat_id" struct and the perf_session methods that
      were really "hists" methods, as they manipulate only struct hists
      members, not touching anything in the other perf_session members.
      
      Other optimizations, such as calculating the maximum lenght of a symbol
      name present in an hists instance will be possible as we add them,
      avoiding a re-traversal just for finding that information.
      
      The rationale for the name "hists" to replace "event_stat_id" is that we
      may have multiple sets of hists for the same event_stat id, as, for
      instance, the 'perf diff' tool has, so event stat id is not what
      characterizes what this struct and the functions that manipulate it do.
