      Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

  * Convert callchain children list to rbtree, greatly reducing the time
    taken for callchain processing, from Namhyung Kim.

  * Add --max-stack option to limit callchain stack scan in 'top' and 'report',
    improving callchain processing when reducing the stack depth is an option,
    from Waiman Long.

  * Compare dso's also when comparing symbols, to avoid grouping together
    symbols with the same name but on different DSOs, fix from Namhyung Kim.

  * 'perf trace' now can can use a 'perf probe' wannabe tracepoint to hook into
    the userspace -> kernel pathname copy so that it can map fds to pathnames
    without reading /proc/pid/fd/ symlinks. From Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

  * 'perf trace' now emits hints as to why tracing is not possible, helping the
    user to setup the system to allow tracing in the desired permission
    granularity, telling if the problem is due to debugfs not being mounted or
    with not enough permission for !root, /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoit
    value, etc. From Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

  * Add missing 'mmap2' in evsel debug print, from Adrian Hunter.

  * Add missing decrement in id sample parsing, not a fix per se, just to
    avoid a problem whem somebody adds another field, from Adrian Hunter.

  * Improve write_output error message in 'perf record', from Adrian Hunter.

  * Add missing sample flush for piped events, fix from Adrian Hunter.

  * Add missing members to perf_event__attr_swap(), fix from Adrian Hunter.

  * Assorted fixes for 32-bit build, from Adrian Hunter

  * Print addr by default for BTS in 'perf script', from Adrian Juntmer

  * Separating data file properties from session, code reorganization from
    Jiri Olsa.

  * Show error in 'perf list' if tracepoints not available, from Pekka Enberg.

    • A
      perf trace: Use vfs_getname hook if available · c522739d
      由 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于 
      Initially it tries to find a probe:vfs_getname that should be setup
with:

 perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:65 pathname=result->name:string'

or with slight changes to cope with code flux in the getname_flags code.

In the future, if a "vfs:getname" tracepoint becomes available, then it
will be preferred.

This is not strictly required and more expensive method of reading the
/proc/pid/fd/ symlink will be used when the fd->path array entry is not
populated by a previous vfs_getname + open syscall ret sequence.

As with any other 'perf probe' probe the setup must be done just once
and the probe will be left inactive, waiting for users, be it 'perf
trace' of any other tool.

      perf/x86: Optimize intel_pmu_pebs_fixup_ip() · 9536c8d2
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      There's been reports of high NMI handler overhead, highlighted by
such kernel messages:

  [ 3697.380195] perf samples too long (10009 > 10000), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 13000
  [ 3697.389509] INFO: NMI handler (perf_event_nmi_handler) took too long to run: 9.331 msecs

Don Zickus analyzed the source of the overhead and reported:

The solution to that is to avoid having to call copy_from_user_nmi() for
every instruction.

Since we already limit the max basic block size, we can easily
pre-allocate a piece of memory to copy the entire thing into in one
go.

Don reported this test result:

 > Your patch made a huge difference in improvement.  The
