This patch updates perf report to support TUI mode
when the perf.data file contains samples with branch
stacks.
For each row in the report, it is possible to annotate
either the source or target of each branch.

This patch enhances perf report to auto-detect when the
perf.data file contains samples with branch stacks. That way it
is not necessary to use the -b option.
To force branch view mode to off, simply use --no-branch-stack.

This patch adds a new feature bit, namely,
HEADER_BRANCH_STACK. When present, it indicates
that sample records may contain branch stack.
This could be useful to a viewer to switch to
branch mode without having to parse all the
samples or without a specific cmdline option.
This will be used in a subsequent patch to
enhance perf report with branch stacks.

This patch chanegs the logic of the -b, --branch-stack options
of perf record.
Based on users' request, the patch provides a default filter
mode with the -b (or --branch-any) option. With the option,
any type of taken branches is sampled.
With -j (or --branch-filter), the user can specify any
valid combination of branch types and privilege levels
if supported by the underlying hardware.
The -b (--branch any) is a shortcut for: --branch-filter any.
$ perf record -b foo
or:
$ perf record --branch-filter any foo
For more specific filtering:
$ perf record --branch-filter ind_call,u foo

This patches provides a way to handle legacy perf.data
files. Legacy files are those using the older PERFFILE
signature.
For those, it is still necessary to detect endianness but
without comparing their header->attr_size with the
tool's own version as it may be different. Instead, we use
a reference table for all known sizes from the legacy era.
We try all the combinations for sizes and endianness. If we find
a match, we proceed, otherwise we return: "incompatible file
format".
This is also done for the pipe-mode file format.

This patch allows perf to process perf.data files generated
using an ABI that has a different perf_event_attr struct size,
i.e., a different ABI version.
The perf_event_attr can be extended, yet perf needs to cope with
older perf.data files. Similarly, perf must be able to cope with
a perf.data file which is using a newer version of the ABI than
what it knows about.
This patch adds read_attr(), a routine that reads a
perf_event_attr struct from a file incrementally based on its
advertised size. If the on-file struct is smaller than what perf
knows, then the extra fields are zeroed. If the on-file struct
is bigger, then perf only uses what it knows about, the rest is
skipped.

This patch adds support for taken branch sampling, i.e, the
PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK feature to perf report. In other
words, to display histograms based on taken branches rather
than executed instructions addresses.
The new option is called -b and it takes no argument. To
generate meaningful output, the perf.data must have been
obtained using perf record -b xxx ... where xxx is a branch
filter option.
The output shows symbols, modules, sorted by 'who branches
where' the most often. The percentages reported in the first
column refer to the total number of branches captured and
not the usual number of samples.
Here is a quick example.
Here branchy is simple test program which looks as follows:
void f2(void)
{}
void f3(void)
{}
void f1(unsigned long n)
{
if (n & 1UL)
f2();
else
f3();
}
int main(void)
{
unsigned long i;
for (i=0; i < N; i++)
f1(i);
return 0;
}
Here is the output captured on Nehalem, if we are
only interested in user level function calls.
$ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy
$ perf report -b --sort=symbol
52.34% [.] main [.] f1
24.04% [.] f1 [.] f3
23.60% [.] f1 [.] f2
0.01% [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn [k] _IO_file_overflow
0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn
0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] strchrnul
0.01% [k] __printf [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal
0.01% [k] main [k] __printf
About half (52%) of the call branches captured are from main()
-> f1(). The second half (24%+23%) is split in two equal shares
between f1() -> f2(), f1() ->f3(). The output is as expected
given the code.
It should be noted, that using -b in perf record does not
eliminate information in the perf.data file. Consequently, a
typical profile can also be obtained by perf report by simply
not using its -b option.
It is possible to sort on branch related columns:
- dso_from, symbol_from
- dso_to, symbol_to
- mispredict

This patch adds a new option to enable taken branch stack
sampling, i.e., leverage the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK feature
of perf_events.
There is a new option to active this mode: -b.
It is possible to pass a set of filters to select the type of
branches to sample.
The following filters are available:
- any : any type of branches
- any_call : any function call or system call
- any_ret : any function return or system call return
- any_ind : any indirect branch
- u: only when the branch target is at the user level
- k: only when the branch target is in the kernel
- hv: only when the branch target is in the hypervisor
Filters can be combined by passing a comma separated list
to the option:
$ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy

If perf_evsel__open() failed, the errno was set and returned properly.
However since the perf_evlist__open() called close() on fd's for all of
evsel x cpu x thread after the failure, the errno was overridden by
other code (EBADF). So the caller of the function ended up seeing
different error message and getting confused.
Fit it by restoring original return value. Because one of caller of the
function is in the python extension, and it uses system errno
internally, it'd be better restoring the original value rather than
using the return value of the function directly, IMHO (i.e. I'm not a
python expert :)

Just fall back to resetting those fields, if set, warning the user that
that feature is not available.
If guest samples appear they will just be discarded because no struct
machine will be found and thus the event will be accounted as not
handled and dropped, see 0c09571.

Setting perf_guest to true by default makes no sense because the perf
subcommands can not setup guest symbol information and thus not process
and guest samples. The only exception is perf-kvm which changes the
perf_guest value on its own. So change the default for perf_guest back
to false.

AMD's BKDG (Bios and Kernel Developers Guide) talks in the CPU spec of their
CPU families about PCI registers defined by "device" (slot) and func(tion).
Assuming that CPU specific configuration PCI devices are always on domain
and bus zero a pci_slot_func_init() func which gets the slot and func of
the desired PCI device passed looks like the most convenient way.
This also obsoletes the PCI device id maintenance.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/balbi/usb into usb-next
USB: Gadget: changes for 3.4
This merge is rather big. Here's what it contains:
For am5536udc we have just simple coding style fixes. Nothing that has any
potential to cause any issues going forward.
With mv_udc, there's only one single change removing an unneeded NULL check.
at91_udc also only saw a single change this merge window, and that's only
removing a duplicated header.
The Renesas controller has a few more involved changes. Support for SUDMAC was
added, there's now a special handling of IRQ resources for when the IRQ line is
shared between Renesas controller and SUDMAC, we also had a bug fix where
Renesas controller would sleep in atomic context while doing DMA transfers from
a tasklet. There were also a set of minor cleanups.
The FSL UDC also had a scheduling in atomic context bug fix, but that's all.
Thanks to Sebastian, the dummy_hcd now works better than ever with support for
scatterlists and streams. Sebastian also added SuperSpeed descriptors to the
serial gadgets.
The highlight on this merge is the addition of a generic API for mapping and
unmapping usb_requests. This will avoid code duplication on all UDC controllers
and also kills all the defines for DMA_ADDR_INVALID which UDC controllers
sprinkled around. A few of the UDC controllers were already converted to use
this new API.

without DWARF info too
The 'perf probe' command allows kprobe to be inserted at any offset from
a function start, which results in adding kprobes to unintended
location. (example: perf probe do_fork+10000 is allowed even though
size of do_fork is ~904).
My previous patch https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/24/42 addressed the case
where DWARF info was available for the kernel. This patch fixes the
case where perf probe is used on a kernel without debuginfo available.

On old kernels that don't support sample_id_all feature,
perf_evlist__id2evsel() returns NULL for non-sampling events.
This breaks perf top when multiple events are given on command line. Fix
it by using first evsel in the evlist. This will also prevent getting
the same (potential) problem in such new tool/ old kernel combo.

Use the header file in tools/include instead of duplicating the endian
functions.

There are various hostprogs in the kernel that are rolling their own
implementations of {get,put}_unaligned_le*(). Copy the byteshift
headers from include/linux/unaligned so that they can all use a single
implementation.
This requires changing some of the data types to the userspace
exported ones (u32 -> __u32, etc).

While demoing ktest at ELC in 2012, it was embarrassing that the
make_min_config test failed to work because the snowball board I was
testing it against had a config that would not build. But the
make_min_config only tested the testing part and ignored build failures.
The end result was a config file that would not boot.
This time, for real.
* tag 'ktest-fix-make-min-failed-build-for-real' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-ktest:
ktest: Fix make_min_config test when build fails
|
|
The make_min_config does not take into account when the build fails,
resulting in a invalid MIN_CONFIG .config file. When the build fails,
it is ignored and the boot test is executed, using the previous built
kernel. The configs that should be tested are not tested and they may
be added or removed depending on the result of the last kernel that
succeeded to be built.
If the build fails, mark the current config as a failure and the
configs that were disabled may still be needed.

The following commit:
b52956c perf tools: Allow multiple threads or processes in record, stat, top
introduced a bug in the thread_map code which caused perf record -a to
not setup system-wide monitoring properly.
$ taskset -c 1 noploop 1000 &
$ perf record -a -C 1 sleep 10
$ perf report -D | tail -20
cycles stats:
TOTAL events: 4413
MMAP events: 4025
COMM events: 340
SAMPLE events: 48
Here I was expecting about 10,000 samples and not 48.
In system-wide mode, the PID passed to perf_event_open() must be -1 and
it was 0. That caused the kernel to setup a per-process event on PID:0.
Consequently, the number of samples captured does not correspond to the
requested measurement.
The following one-liner fixes the problem for me with or without -C.
I would also suggest to change the malloc() to something that matches
the struct definition. thread_map->map[] is declared as int map[] and
not pid_t map[]. If map[] can only contain pids, then change the struct
definition.
