git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: * Fix include order for bison/flex-generated C files, from Ben Hutchings * Build fixes and documentation corrections from David Ahern * Group parsing support, from Jiri Olsa * UI/gtk refactorings and improvements from Namhyung Kim * NULL deref fix for perf script, from Namhyung Kim * Assorted cleanups from Robert Richter * Let O= makes handle relative paths, from Steven Rostedt * perf script python fixes, from Feng Tang. * Improve 'perf lock' error message when the needed tracepoints are not present, from David Ahern. * Initial bash completion support, from Frederic Weisbecker * Allow building without libelf, from Namhyung Kim. * Support DWARF CFI based unwind to have callchains when %bp based unwinding is not possible, from Jiri Olsa. * Symbol resolution fixes, while fixing support PPC64 files with an .opt ELF section was the end goal, several fixes for code that handles all architectures and cleanups are included, from Cody Schafer. * Add a description for the JIT interface, from Andi Kleen. * Assorted fixes for Documentation and build in 32 bit, from Robert Richter * Add support for non-tracepoint events in perf script python, from Feng Tang * Cache the libtraceevent event_format associated to each evsel early, so that we avoid relookups, i.e. calling pevent_find_event repeatedly when processing tracepoint events. [ This is to reduce the surface contact with libtraceevents and make clear what is that the perf tools needs from that lib: so far parsing the common and per event fields. ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace into perf/core Pull ftrace updates from Steve Rostedt: " This patch series extends ftrace function tracing utility to be more dynamic for its users. It allows for data passing to the callback functions, as well as reading regs as if a breakpoint were to trigger at function entry. The main goal of this patch series was to allow kprobes to use ftrace as an optimized probe point when a probe is placed on an ftrace nop. With lots of help from Masami Hiramatsu, and going through lots of iterations, we finally came up with a good solution. " Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

2012-08-20perf tools: Fix include order for bison/flex-generated C filesBen Hutchings
When we use a separate output directory, we add util/ to the include path for the generated C files. However, this is currently added to the end of the path, behind /usr/include/slang and /usr/include/gtk-2.0 if use of the respective libraries is enabled. Thus the '#include "../perf.h"' in util/parse-events.l can actually include /usr/include/perf.h if it exists. Move '-Iutil/' ahead of all the other preprocessor options.

2012-08-14perf tools: Enable grouping logic for parsed eventsJiri Olsa
This patch adds a functionality that allows to create event groups based on the way they are specified on the command line. Adding functionality to the '{}' group syntax introduced in earlier patch. The current '--group/-g' option behaviour remains intact. If you specify it for record/stat/top command, all the specified events become members of a single group with the first event as a group leader. With the new '{}' group syntax you can create group like: # perf record -e '{cycles,faults}' ls resulting in single event group containing 'cycles' and 'faults' events, with cycles event as group leader. All groups are created with regards to threads and cpus. Thus recording an event group within a 2 threads on server with 4 CPUs will create 8 separate groups. Examples (first event in brackets is group leader): # 1 group (cpu-clock,task-clock) perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock ls perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock}' ls # 2 groups (cpu-clock,task-clock) (minor-faults,major-faults) perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock},{minor-faults,major-faults}' ls # 1 group (cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults) perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock -e minor-faults,major-faults ls perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults}' ls # 2 groups (cpu-clock,task-clock) (minor-faults,major-faults) perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock} -e '{minor-faults,major-faults}' \ -e instructions ls # 1 group # (cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults,instructions) perf record --group -e cpu-clock,task-clock \ -e minor-faults,major-faults -e instructions ls perf record -e '{cpu-clock,task-clock,minor-faults,major-faults,instructions}' ls It's possible to use standard event modifier for a group, which spans over all events in the group and updates each event modifier settings, for example: # perf record -r '{faults:k,cache-references}:p' resulting in ':kp' modifier being used for 'faults' and ':p' modifier being used for 'cache-references' event.

2012-08-14perf tools: Add support to update event modifierJiri Olsa
Adding support to update already defined event's attribute with event modifier. This change will allow to use group modifier as an update to the existing event modifiers. Adding 'add' parameter to the parse_events__modifier_event function. Calling it with 'add' = false/true, the event modifier is initialized/updated respectively. Added exclude_GH flag to evsel struct, because we need to remember if one of 'GH' modifiers was used for event. The reason is that the default settings for exclude_guest is 1 and during the group modifier processing we have no other way of knowing if it was set by default or by event modifier. Keeping the current behaviour, that any event/group modifier reset the defaults for exclude_host (0) and exclude_guest (1).

2012-08-14perf tools: Add support to parse event group syntaxJiri Olsa
Adding scanner/parser bits to parse event groups. The grammar for group is: groups: groups ',' group | group group: group_name '{' events '}' group_mod group_name: name | empty group_mod: ':' group_mods | empty group_mods: event_mod It's possible to use standard event modifier as a modifier for group. It'll be used as an update to existing event modifiers. It's necessary to use quoting ("'\) when specifying group on command line, since {} characters are interpreted by most of the shells. It is now possible to specify groups in event syntax like: '{cycles,faults}' - anonymous group 'group1{cycles,faults} - group with name 'group1' '{cycles,faults}:k - anonymous group with event modifier 'k' '{cpu-clock,task-clock},{minor-faults,major-faults}' - two anonymous groups The grouping functionality itself is coming shortly.

2012-08-13perf symbols: Use both runtime and debug imagesCody P Schafer
We keep both a 'runtime' elf image as well as a 'debug' elf image around and generate symbols by looking at both of these. This eliminates the need for the want_symtab/goto restart mechanism combined with iterating over and reopening the elf images a second time. Also give dso__synthsize_plt_symbols() the runtime image (which has dynsyms) instead of the symbol image (which may only have a symtab and no dynsyms). Previously if a debug image was found all runtime images were ignored. This fixes 2 issues: - Symbol resolution to failure on PowerPC systems with debug symbols installed, as the debug images lack a '.opd' section which contains function descriptors. - On all archs, plt synthesis failed when a debug image was loaded and that debug image lacks a dynsym section while a runtime image has a dynsym section. Assumptions: - If a .opd section exists, it is contained in the highest priority image with a dynsym section. - This generally implies that the debug image lacks a dynsym section (ie: it is marked as NO_BITS).

2012-08-13perf symbols: Convert dso__load_syms to take 2 symsrc'sCody P Schafer
To properly handle platforms with an opd section, both a runtime image (which contains the opd section but possibly lacks symbols) and a symbol image (which probably lacks an opd section but has symbols). The next patch ("perf symbol: use both runtime and debug images") adjusts the callsite in dso__load() to take advantage of being able to pass both runtime & debug images. Assumptions made here: - The opd section, if it exists in the runtime image, has headers in both the runtime image and the debug/syms image. - The index of the opd section (again, only if it exists in the runtime image) is the same in both the runtime and debug/symbols image. Both of these are true on RHEL, but it is unclear how accurate they are in general (on platforms with function descriptors in opd sections).

The goal here is to keep multiple elfs (and their looked up sections/indexes) around during the symbol generation process (in dso__load()).

It would be possible to just keep the (Elf *) around, but then we'd end up with duplicate code for looking up the same sections and checking for the existence of an important section wouldn't be as clean (and we need to keep the Elf stuff confined to symtab-elf.c).

Given that kallsyms__parse() lacks real information about what end/length should be, don't make up a length in kallsyms__parse(). Instead have the callbacks handle guessing the length.

The size specifies the size of the user stack dump. If omitted it is 8192 by default. If libunwind is found during the perf build, then the 'dwarf' argument becomes available for record command. The 'fp' stays as default option in any case.

2012-08-10perf: Add attribute to filter out callchainsFrederic Weisbecker
Introducing following bits to the the perf_event_attr struct: - exclude_callchain_kernel to filter out kernel callchain from the sample dump - exclude_callchain_user to filter out user callchain from the sample dump We need to be able to disable standard user callchain dump when we use the dwarf cfi callchain mode, because frame pointer based user callchains are useless in this mode. Implementing also exclude_callchain_kernel to have complete set of options. Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> [ Added kernel callchains filtering ] Cc: "Frank Ch.
