2014-08-15perf probe: Warn user to rebuild target with debuginfoMasami Hiramatsu1-18/+23
Warn user to rebuild target with debuginfo when the perf probe fails to find debug information in the target binary. Without this, perf probe just reports the failure, but it's no hint for users. This gives more hint for users. Without this: $ strip perf $ ./perf probe -x perf -L argv_split Failed to open debuginfo file. Error: Failed to show lines. With this: $ strip perf $ ./perf probe -x perf -L argv_split The /home/fedora/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf file has no debug information. Rebuild with -g, or install an appropriate debuginfo package. Error: Failed to show lines. The "rebuild with ..." part changes to "rebuild with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO" if the target is the kernel or a kernel module.

2014-08-13perf script python: Add helpers for calling Python objectsAdrian Hunter1-67/+47
The Python script API repeatedly uses the same lines of code to get and call objects. Make that into helper functions instead. A side-effect is that some reference counting bugs disappear because the new call_object() function always decrements the reference count of 'retval'.

Add an option to cause a selected event to be opened always without a pid when configured by perf_evsel__config(). This is needed when using the sched_switch tracepoint to follow object code execution. sched_switch occurs before the task switch and so it cannot record it in a context limited to that task. Note that also means that sched_switch is useless when capturing data per-thread, as is the 'context-switches' software event for the same reason.

2014-08-13perf report: Set proper sort__mode for the branch option[email protected]1-1/+1
When you specify "--branch-stack"("-b" for short) or "--no-branch-stack", "branch_mode" variable is set to 1 or 0 respectively. However, the code is just checking if the variable is -1 or not, ignoring "branch_mode == 1" case. Thus "perf report -b" dose not show its result with the branch sorted mode.

Currently vmlinux_path__init() only tries to find vmlinux file from current directory, /boot and some canonical directories with version number of the running kernel. This can be a problem when reporting old data recorded on a kernel version not running currently. We can use --symfs option for this but it's annoying for user to do it always.

2014-08-13perf tools: Prefer to use a cpu-wide event for probing CLOEXECAdrian Hunter1-4/+18
When doing a system-wide trace with Intel PT, the jump label set up as a result of probing CLOEXEC gets reset while the trace is running. That causes an Intel PT decoding error because the object code (obtained from /proc/kcore) does not match the running code at that point. While we can't expect there never to be jump label changes, we can avoid cases that the perf tool itself creates. The problem is avoided by first trying a cpu-wide event (pid = -1) for probing the PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC flag and falling back to an event for the current process (pid = 0).

2014-08-13perf probe: Fix --del option to delete events only with uprobe eventsMasami Hiramatsu1-23/+26
Current perf probe --del doesn't work if only CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS=y because it aborts when it fails to open kprobe_events file before checking uprobe_events file. This fixes --del option to delete dynamic events if it can open either kprobe_events or uprobe_events. Only if it failed to open both of them, it shows an error message and aborts. Without this patch, if we run perf probe -d on the kernel configured with CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS=n and CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS=y, # perf probe -d \* kprobe_events file does not exist - please rebuild kernel with CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS. Error: Failed to delete events. With this patch, # perf probe -d \* Removed event: probe_perf:alloc_event Changes in v2: - Use strerror_r instead of strerror.

2014-08-12perf tools: Default to python version 2Thomas Ilsche1-3/+9
According to PEP 394 recommendation [1], it's more portable to use python2 rather than plain python to refer python binary version 2. Since there're distros using python3 by default like Arch, and we don't support python3 (yet), it'd be better using python2 explicitly. But older versions (prior to 2.7) seem not to provide python2 but just python. Given that it's only old version, try python2 first and then fallback to python. It'll ensure that it always points to python 2.x. I tested (compiles and perf script runs) with the combinations: 1) python -> python2.x, python-config -> python2.x-config python2 N/A, python2-config N/A 2) python -> python3.x, python-config -> python3.x-config python2 -> python2.x, python2-config -> python2.x-config 3) python -> python2.x, python-config -> python2.x-config python2 -> python2.x, python2-config -> python2.x-config 4) python -> python2.x, python-config -> python2.x-config python2 -> python2.x, python2-config N/A Based on / replaces the patch 2/2 by Namhyung Kim.

If user sets ui.show-headers config option to false, it didn't calculate default column width so it broke the alignment. This is because it does the calculation just before showing headers.
