2015-12-15perf record: Add record.build-id config optionNamhyung Kim2-1/+26
Post processing at 'perf record' takes a long time on big machines. What it does is to find the build-id of binaries found in the event stream, so that it can make sure, at 'report' time, that the symtabs (be it ELF, kallsyms, etc) being used to resolve symbols are the ones matching the binaries found at 'record' time. Sometimes we just want to skip this processing of events at the end of the session to get quicker results, making sure the binaries haven't changed from 'record' to 'report' time. Add a new config option to control this behavior. The record.build-id config variable can have one of the following values: - cache: post-process data and save/update the binaries into the build-id cache (in ~/.debug). This is the default. - no-cache: post-process the data but not update the build-id cache. Same effect as using the -N option. - skip: skip post-processing and do not update the cache. Same effect as using the -B option.

2015-12-14perf record: Support custom vmlinux pathHe Kuang2-2/+24
Make perf-record command support --vmlinux option if BPF_PROLOGUE is on. 'perf record' needs vmlinux as the source of DWARF info to generate prologue for BPF programs, so path of vmlinux should be specified. Short name 'k' has been taken by 'clockid'. This patch skips the short option name and uses '--vmlinux' for vmlinux path. Documentation is also updated.

2015-12-14perf tools: Make options always available, even if required libs not linkedWang Nan4-13/+134
This patch keeps options of perf builtins same in all conditions. If one option is disabled because of compiling options, users should be notified. Masami suggested another implementation in [1] that, by adding a OPTION_NEXT_DEPENDS option before those options in the 'struct option' array, options parser knows an option is disabled. However, in some cases this array is reordered (options__order()). In addition, in parse-option.c that array is const, so we can't simply merge information in decorator option into the affacted option. This patch chooses a simpler implementation that, introducing a set_option_nobuild() function and two option parsing flags. Builtins with such options should call set_option_nobuild() before option parsing. The complexity of this patch is because we want some of options can be skipped safely. In this case their arguments should also be consumed. Options in 'perf record' and 'perf probe' are fixed in this patch.

We should always return from thread__new(), the constructor, with the object with a reference count of one, so that: struct thread *thread = thread__new(); thread__put(thread); Will call thread__delete(). If any reference is made to that 'thread' variable, it better use thread__get(thread) to hold a reference. We were returning with thread->refcnt set to zero, fix it and some cases where thread__delete() was being called, which were not a problem because just one reference was being used, now that we set it to 1, use thread__put() instead.

2015-12-14perf tools: Use same signal handling strategy as 'record'Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-1/+2
I.e. don't exit with the signal number, instead set the signal handler to the default one and then raise it again. Noticed while trying to dump the stack at segfaults in the 'perf test' forked process used to run each test, that inspects signal info at each test.

2015-12-11perf tools: Clear struct machine during machine__init()Wang Nan1-0/+1
There are so many test cases use stack allocated 'struct machine'. Including: test__hists_link test__hists_filter test__mmap_thread_lookup test__thread_mg_share test__hists_output test__hists_cumulate Also, in non-test code (for example, machine__new_host()) there are code use 'malloc()' to alloc struct machine. These are dangerous operations, cause some tests fail or hung in machines__exit(). For example, in machines__exit -> machine__destroy_kernel_maps -> map_groups__remove -> maps__remove -> pthread_rwlock_wrlock a incorrectly initialized lock causes unintended behavior. This patch memset(0) that structure in machine__init() to ensure all fields in 'struct machine' are initialized to zero.

The ui__has_annotation() inside perf_top__record_precise_ip() should be removed since it returns true only for TUI (and when sort key has symbol). However the 'perf top --stdio' also supports annotation for a symbol which was specified by 's' key action. Actually it already does the necessary checks before calling the function. So it's ok to get rid of the check here.

After sample processing is done, hist entries are in both of hists->entries and hists->entries_in (or hists->entries_collapsed). So I guess perf report does not have leaks on hists. But for perf top, it's possible to have half-processed entries which are only in hists->entries_in. Eventually they will go to the hists->entries and get freed but they cannot be deleted by current hists__delete_entries(). This patch adds hists__delete_all_entries function to delete those entries.
