Because we will need it in 'perf top' to support userspace
symbols for existing threads.

Now we pass a callback that will receive the synthesized event
and then write it to the output file in 'perf record' and in the
upcoming patch for 'perf top' we will just immediatelly create
the in memory representation of threads and maps.

specify the verbosity level, unify it by introducing

Wrapping the kernel headers is dangerous when it comes to arch
headers. Once we wrap asm/types.h, it will also replace the
glibc asm/types.h, not only the kernel one.

This results in build errors on some machines.

Drop this wrapper and do its work from linux/types.h wrapper,
also the glibc asm/types.h can already handle most of the type
definition it was doing (typedef __u64, __u32, etc...).

Todo: Check the others asm/*.h wrappers to prevent from other
conflicts.

Currently, the callchains are displayed using a constant left
margin. So depending on the current sort dimension
configuration, callchains may appear to be well attached to the
first sort dimension column field which is mostly the case,
except when the first dimension of sorting is done by comm,
because these are right aligned.

This patch binds the callchain to the first letter in the first
column, whatever type of column it is (dso, comm, symbol).

Also, for clarity, we don't put anymore the callchain as is but:

- If we have a top level ancestor in the callchain, start it
  with a first ascii hook.

While recursively printing the branches of each callchains, we
forget to display the root. It is never printed.

Say we have:

    symbol
    f1
    f2
     |
     -------- f3
     |        f4
     |
     ---------f5
              f6

Actually we never see that, instead it displays:

    symbol
    |
    --------- f3
    |         f4
    |
    --------- f5
              f6

However f1 is always the same than "symbol" and if we are
sorting by symbols first then "symbol", f1 and f2 will be well
aligned like in the above example, so displaying f1 looks
redundant here.

But if we are sorting by something else first (dso, comm,
etc...), displaying f1 doesn't look redundant but rather
necessary because the symbol is not well aligned anymore with
its callchain:

     comm     dso        symbol
     f1
     f2
     |
     --------- [...]

And we want the callchain to be obvious.
So we fix the bug by printing the root branch, but we also
filter its first entry if we are sorting by symbols first.

The second argument in the strtok_r() function is not to be used
generically and can have different implementations. Currently
the function parsing of the perf trace code uses the second
argument to copy data from. This can crash the tool or just have
unpredictable results.

The correct solution is to use strsep() which has a defined
result.

I also added a check to see if the result was correct, and will
break out of the loop in case it fails to parse as expected.

If the user doesn't pass a symbol name to annotate, it will
annotate all the symbols that have hits, in order, just like
'perf report -s comm,dso,symbol'.

This is a natural followup patch to the one that uses
output_hists to find the symbols with hits.

The common case is to annotate the first few entries at the top
of a perf report, so lets type less characters.

We need this because we get section relative addresses when
reading the symtabs, but when a tool like 'perf annotate' needs
to match these address to what 'objdump -dS' produces we need
the address + section back again.

So in annotate now we look at the 'struct hist_entry' instances
(that weren't really being used) so that we iterate only over
the symbols that had some hit and get the map where that
particular hit happened so that we can get the right address to
match with annotate.

Verified that at least:

 perf annotate mmap_read_counter # Uses the ~/bin/perf binary
 perf annotate --vmlinux /home/acme/git/build/perf/vmlinux intel_pmu_enable_all

on a 'perf record perf top' session seems to work.

During the Kernel Summit demo of perf/ftrace/timechart, there
was a feature request to have a process filter for timechart so
that you can zoom into one or a few processes that you are
really interested in.

This patch adds basic support for this feature, the -p
(--process) option now can select a PID or a process name to be
shown. Multiple -p options are allowed, and the combined set
will be included in the output.

Currently, scheduler delays are shown in a mostly transparent,
light yellow color. This color is rather hard to see on several

This patch changes the color of the scheduler delays to be a
much more "hard" yellow that survived the kernel summit

The timechart wakeup arrows currently show no process
information when the waker/wakee are processes that are not
actually chosen to be shown on the timechart.

This patch fixes this oversight, by looking through all
processes (after giving preference to visible processes) as well
as falling back to just showing the PID if no name for the
process can be resolved.

Use DECLARE_BITMAP instead of an open coded array for our bitmap
of featured sections.

This makes the array an unsigned long instead of a u64 but since
we use a 256 bits bitmap, the array size shouldn't vary between
different boxes.

This provides a new set of bitmasked headers. A new field is
added in the perf headers that implements a bitmap storing
optional features present in the perf.data file.

The layout can be pictured like this:

(Usual perf headers)(Features bitmap)[Feature 0][Feature
n][Feature 255]

If the bit n is set, then the feature n is used in this file.
They are all set in order. This brings a backward and forward
compatibility.

The trace_info section has moved into such optional features,
this is the first and only one for now.

This is backward compatible with the .32 file version although
it doesn't support the previous separate trace.info file.

And finally it doesn't support the current interim development
version.

A simplified version of the semantic match that detects this
problem is as follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/):

expression x, E;
identifier fld;

Now that we can filter based on fields via perf record, people
will start using filter expressions and will expect them to
be obvious.

The primary way to see which fields are available is by looking
at the trace output, such as:

  gcc-18676 [000]   343.011728: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
  cc1-18677 [000]   343.012727: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
  cc1-18677 [000]   343.032692: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
  cc1-18677 [000]   343.033690: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
  cc1-18677 [000]   343.034687: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
  cc1-18677 [000]   343.035686: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
  cc1-18677 [000]   343.036684: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer

While 'irq==0' filters work, the 'handler==<x>' filter expression
does not work:

  $ perf record -R -f -a -e irq:irq_handler_entry --filter handler=timer sleep 1
   Error: failed to set filter with 22 (Invalid argument)

The problem is that while an 'irq' field exists and is recognized
as a filter field - 'handler' does not exist - its name is 'name'
in the output.

To solve this, we need to synchronize the printout and the field
names, wherever possible.

In cases where the printout prints a non-field, we enclose
that information in square brackets, such as:

  perf-1380  [013]   724.903505: softirq_exit: vec=9 [action=RCU]
  perf-1380  [013]   724.904482: softirq_exit: vec=1 [action=TIMER]

This way users can use filter expressions more intuitively: all
fields that show up as 'primary' (non-bracketed) information is
filterable.

This patch harmonizes the field names for all irq, bkl, power,
sched and timer events.

We might in fact think about dropping the print format bit of
generic tracepoints altogether, and just print the fields that
are being recorded.

Américo Wang noticed that we have a locking imbalance in the
error paths of ftrace_profile_set_filter(), causing potential
leakage of event_mutex.

Also clean up other error codepaths related to event_mutex
while at it.

Plus fix an initialized variable in the subsystem filter code.

Add a new option "--filter <filter_str>" to perf record, and
it should be right after "-e trace_point":

 #./perf record -R -f -e irq:irq_handler_entry --filter irq==18
 ^C
 # ./perf trace
            perf-4303  ... irq_handler_entry: irq=18 handler=eth0
            init-0     ... irq_handler_entry: irq=18 handler=eth0

            init-0     ... irq_handler_entry: irq=18 handler=eth0
