2016-06-23perf config: Move config declarations from util/cache.h to util/config.hTaeung Song1-1/+1
Lately util/config.h has been added but util/cache.h has declarations of functions and a global variable for config features. To manage codes about configuration at one spot, move them to util/config.h and let source files that need config features include config.h And if the source files that included previous cache.h need only config.h, remove including cache.h.

2016-02-26perf config: Bring perf_default_config to the very beginning at main()Wang Nan1-1/+1
Before this patch each subcommand calls perf_config() by themself, reading the default configuration together with subcommand specific options. If a subcommand doesn't have it own options, it needs to call 'perf_config(perf_default_config, NULL)' to ensure .perfconfig is loaded. This patch brings perf_config(perf_default_config, NULL) to the very start of main(), so subcommands don't need to do it. After this patch, 'llvm.clang-path' works for 'perf trace'.

2015-09-28perf report: Make max_stack value allow for synthesized callchainsAdrian Hunter1-0/+4
perf report has an option (--max-stack) to set the maximum stack depth when processing callchains. The option defaults to the hard-coded maximum definition PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH which is 127. The intention of the option is to allow the user to reduce the processing time by reducing the amount of the callchain that is processed. It is also possible, when processing instruction traces, to synthesize callchains. Synthesized callchains do not have the kernel size limitation and are whatever size the user requests, although validation presently prevents the user requested a value greater that 1024. The default value is 16. To allow for synthesized callchains, make the max_stack value at least the same size as the synthesized callchain size.

2015-09-28perf report: Skip events with null branch stacksAdrian Hunter1-4/+11
A non-synthesized event might not have a branch stack if branch stacks have been synthesized (using itrace options). An example of that is when Intel PT records sched_switch events for decoding purposes. Those sched_switch events do not have branch stacks even though the Intel PT decoder may be synthesizing other events that do due to the itrace options.

2015-09-28perf report: Adjust sample type validation for synthesized branch stacksAdrian Hunter1-0/+3
perf report looks at event sample types to determine if branch stacks have been sampled. Adjust the validation to know about instruction tracing options. This change allows the use of the -b option which otherwise would complain with an error like: Error: Selected -b but no branch data. Did you call perf record without -b? # To display the perf.data header info, # please use --header/--header-only options. # Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <[email protected]> Cc: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]>
2015-09-28perf report: Fix sample type validation for synthesized callchainsAdrian Hunter1-0/+6
Processing instruction tracing data (e.g. Intel PT) can synthesize callchains e.g. $ perf record -e intel_pt//u uname $ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige However perf report's callgraph option gets extra validation, so: $ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige -gflat Error: Selected -g or --branch-history but no callchain data. Did you call 'perf record' without -g? # To display the perf.data header info, # please use --header/--header-only options. # Fix the validation to know about instruction tracing options so above command works. A side-effect of the change is that the default option to accumulate the callchain of child functions comes into force. To get the previous behaviour the --no-children option can be used e.g. $ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige -gflat --no-children Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <[email protected]> Cc: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]>

2015-08-10perf tools: Support full source file paths for srclineAndi Kleen1-0/+2
For perf report/script srcline currently only the base file name of the source file is printed. This is a good default because it usually fits on the screen. But in some cases we want to know the full file name, for example to aggregate hits per file. In the later case we need more than the base file name to resolve file naming collisions: for example the kernel source has ~70 files named "core.c" It's also useful as input to post processing tools which want to point to the right file. Add a flag to allow full file name output. Add an option to perf report/script to enable this option.

2015-06-26perf symbols: Check access permission when reading symbol filesLi Zhang1-0/+11
There 2 problems when reading symbols files: * It doesn't report any errors even if when users specify symbol files which don't exist with --kallsyms or --vmlinux. The result just shows the address without symbols, which is not what is expected. So it's better to report errors and exit the program. * When using command perf report --kallsyms=/proc/kallsyms with a non-root user, symbols are resolved. Then select one symbol and annotate it, it reports the error as the following: Can't annotate __clear_user: No vmlinux file with build id xxx was found. The problem is caused by reading /proc/kcore without access permission. /proc/kcore requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability to access, so it needs to change access permission to allow a specific user to read /proc/kcore or use root to execute the perf command. This patch is to report errors when symbol files specified by users don't exist. And check access permission of /proc/kcore when reading it.
