2011-01-22perf evsel: Introduce perf_evlistArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+1
Killing two more perf wide global variables: nr_counters and evsel_list as a list_head. There are more operations that will need more fields in perf_evlist, like the pollfd for polling all the fds in a list of evsel instances. Use option->value to pass the evsel_list to parse_{events,filters}.

2011-01-22perf tools: Add missing header, fixes buildArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+1
We need the definiton for __always_inline in bitops.h to fix the build on distros where it isn't available or compiler.h doesn't get included indirectly. One of the fixes needed to build perf on RHEL4 systems, for instance.

2010-11-26perf record: Add option to disable collecting build-idsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+5
Collecting build-ids for long running sessions may take a long time because it needs to traverse the whole just collected perf.data stream of events, marking the DSOs that had hits and then looking for the .note.gnu.build-id ELF section. For things like the 'trace' tool that records and right away consumes the data on systems where its unlikely that the DSOs being monitored will change while 'trace' runs, it is desirable to remove build id collection, so add a -B/--no-buildid option to perf record to allow such use case. Longer term we'll avoid all this if we, at DSO load time, in the kernel, take advantage of this slow code path to collect the build-id and stash it somewhere, so that we can insert it in the PERF_RECORD_MMAP event.

arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S memcpy routines via 'perf bench mem' This patch ports arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S to perf bench mem memcpy for benchmarking memcpy() in userland with tricky and dirty way. util/include/asm/cpufeature.h, util/include/asm/dwarf2.h, and util/include/linux/linkage.h are mostly dummy files with small wrappers, so that we are able to include memcpy_64.S unmodified.

2010-05-17perf options: Check v type in OPT_U?INTEGERArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+2
To avoid problems like the one fixed by Stephane Eranian in 3de29ca, now we'll got this instead: bench/sched-messaging.c:259: error: negative width in bit-field ‘<anonymous>’ bench/sched-messaging.c:261: error: negative width in bit-field ‘<anonymous>’ Which is rather cryptic, but is how BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO works, so kernel hackers should be already used to this. With it in place found some problems, fixed by changing the affected variables to sensible types or changed some OPT_INTEGER to OPT_UINTEGER. Next csets will go thru converting each of the remaining OPT_ so that review can be made easier by grouping changes per type per patch.

2009-11-24perf tools: Fix compilation on powerpcPaul Mackerras1-0/+2
Currently, perf fails to compile on powerpc with this error: CC util/header.o In file included from util/../perf.h:17, from util/header.c:9: util/../../../arch/powerpc/include/asm/unistd.h:360:27: error: linux/linkage.h: No such file or directory make: *** [util/header.o] Error 1 The reason is that we still have a #define __KERNEL__ in effect at the point where <asm/unistd.h> gets included, which means we get extra stuff that we don't need or want. This fixes the problem by undefining __KERNEL__ once we have included the file for which we need __KERNEL__ defined.

2009-11-11perf tools: Bring linear set of section headers for featuresFrederic Weisbecker2-1/+2
Build a set of section headers for features right after the datas. Each implemented feature will have one of such section header that provides the offset and the size of the data manipulated by the feature. The trace informations have moved after the data and are recorded on exit time. The new layout is as follows: ----------------------- ___ [ magic ] | [ header size ] | [ attr size ] | [ attr content offset ] | [ attr content size ] | [ data offset ] File Headers [ data size ] | [ event_types offset ] | [ event_types size ] | [ feature bitmap ] v [ attr section ] [ events section ] ___ [ X ] | [ X ] | [ X ] Datas [ X ] | [ X ] v ___ [ Feature 1 offset ] | [ Feature 1 size ] Features headers [ Feature 2 offset ] | [ Feature 2 size ] v [ Feature 1 content ] [ Feature 2 content ] ----------------------- We have as many feature's section headers as we have features in use for the current file. Say Feat 1 and Feat 3 are used by the file, but not Feat 2. Then the feature headers will be like follows: [ Feature 1 offset ] | [ Feature 1 size ] Features headers [ Feature 3 offset ] | [ Feature 3 size ] v There is no hole to cover Feature 2 that is not in use here. We only need to cover the needed headers in order, from the lowest feature bit to the highest. Currently we have two features: HEADER_TRACE_INFO and HEADER_BUILD_ID. Both have their contents that follow the feature headers. Putting the contents right after the feature headers is not mandatory though. While we keep the feature headers right after the data and in order, their offsets can point everywhere. We have just put the two above feature contents in the end of the file for convenience. The purpose of this layout change is to have a file format that scales while keeping it simple: having such linear feature headers is less error prone wrt forward/backward compatibility as the content of a feature can be put anywhere, its location can even change by the time, it's fine because its headers will tell where it is. And we know how to find these headers, following the above rules.

2009-10-23perf tools: Drop asm/types.h wrapperFrederic Weisbecker1-0/+2
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.
