      perf stat: Reduce min --interval-print to 10ms · 19afd104
      Kan Liang 提交于
      The --interval-print parameter was limited to 100ms. However, for
      example, 10ms is required to do sophisticated bandwidth analysis using
      uncore events.
      
      The test shows that the overhead of the system-wide uncore monitoring
      with 10ms interval is only ~2%. So this patch reduces the minimal
      interval-print allowd to 10ms.
      
      But 10ms may not work well for all cases. For example, when the
      cpus/threads number is very large, for system-wide core event monitoring
      the overhead could be high.
      
      To handle this issue, a warning will be displayed when the
      interval-print is set between 10ms to 100ms. So users can make a
      decision according to their specific cases.
      
       # perf stat -e uncore_imc_1/cas_count_read/ -a --interval-print 10 -- sleep 1
      
       print interval < 100ms. The overhead percentage could be high in some
       cases. Please proceed with caution.

      perf record: Change 'record.samples' type to unsigned long long · 9f065194
      Yang Shi 提交于
      When run "perf record -e", the number of samples showed up is wrong on some
      32 bit systems, i.e. powerpc and arm.
      
      For example, run the below commands on 32 bit powerpc:
      
        perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 malloc
        perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -a ls perf.data
        [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.036 MB perf.data (13829241621624967218 samples) ]
      
      Actually, "perf script" just shows 21 samples. The number of samples is also
      absurd since samples is long type, but it is printed as PRIu64.
      
      Build test ran on x86-64, x86, aarch64, arm, mips, ppc and ppc64.

      perf probe: Allow probing on kmodules without dwarf · 1a8ac29c
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Allow probing on kernel modules when 'perf' is built without debuginfo
      support.
      
      Currently perf-probe --module requires linking with libdw, but this
      doesn't make sense.
      
      E.g.
        ----
        # make NO_DWARF=1
        # ./perf probe -m pcspkr pcspkr_event%return
          Error: unknown switch `m'
        ----
      
      With this patch
        ----
        # ./perf probe -m pcspkr pcspkr_event%return
        Added new event:
          probe:pcspkr_event   (on pcspkr_event%return in pcspkr)
      
        You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
      
                perf record -e probe:pcspkr_event -aR sleep 1

      perf list: Honour 'event_glob' whem printing selectable PMUs · fa52ceab
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Some PMUs, like the 'intel_bts' one can be used as an event name, i.e.:
      
      	$ perf record -e intel_bts:// usleep 1
      
      Is a valid event name.
      
      But the code printing such PMUs was not honouring the 'event_glob'
      parameter, so the following line was always appearing:
      
        $ intel_bts//                                        [Kernel PMU event]
      
      Fix it:
      
        $ [acme@felicio linux]$ perf list data
      
        List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
      
          uncore_imc/data_reads/                             [Kernel PMU event]
          uncore_imc/data_writes/                            [Kernel PMU event]
