2009-08-19perf tools: Check perf.data ownerPeter Zijlstra
Add an owner check to opening perf.data files and a switch to silence it. Because perf-report/perf-annotate are binary parsers reading another users' perf.data file could be a security risk if the file were explicitly engineered to trigger bugs in the parser (we hope of course there are non such bugs, but you never know).

2009-08-09perf tools: callchain: Fix sum of percentages to be 100% by displaying ↵Frederic Weisbecker
amount of ignored chains in fractal mode When we filter the callchains below a given percentage, we ignore them and the end result only shows entries that have an upper percentage than the filter threshold. It seems to users then that we have an imbalance in the percentage, as if the sum inside a profiled branch doesn't reach 100%. Since in the past there have been real perf report bugs that showed the same sypmtom, it would be nice to assure the user that the data is perfect and trustable and it all sums up to 100.00%. So fix this by displaying the remaining hits that have been filtered but without more detail than their amount in each branches. Example while filtering below 50%: 7.73% [k] delay_tsc | |--98.22%-- __const_udelay | | | |--86.37%-- ath5k_hw_register_timeout | | ath5k_hw_noise_floor_calibration | | ath5k_hw_reset | | ath5k_reset | | ath5k_config | | ieee80211_hw_config | | | | | |--88.53%-- ieee80211_scan_work | | | worker_thread | | | kthread | | | child_rip | | --11.47%-- [...] | --13.63%-- [...] --1.78%-- [...] Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> LKML-Reference: <1249690585-9145-4-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-08-09perf tools: callchain: Fix 'perf report' display to be callchain by defaultFrederic Weisbecker

2009-08-09perf tools: Fix call-chain cumul hit based sub-total (fractal mode)Frederic Weisbecker
The callchain fractal mode builds each new total hits in a new branch of profiling by using the parent's hits of the current branch plus the hits of the children. This is wrong, the total hits of a branch should be made of the sum of every children hits, we must ignore the parent hits in this scope. This patch also fixes another mistake with the hit counting.

2009-07-22perf_counter: PERF_SAMPLE_ID and inherited countersPeter Zijlstra
Anton noted that for inherited counters the counter-id as provided by PERF_SAMPLE_ID isn't mappable to the id found through PERF_RECORD_ID because each inherited counter gets its own id. His suggestion was to always return the parent counter id, since that is the primary counter id as exposed. However, these inherited counters have a unique identifier so that events like PERF_EVENT_PERIOD and PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE can be specific about which counter gets modified, which is important when trying to normalize the sample streams. This patch removes PERF_EVENT_PERIOD in favour of PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD, which is more useful anyway, since changing periods became a lot more common than initially thought -- rendering PERF_EVENT_PERIOD the less useful solution (also, PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD reports the more accurate value, since it reports the value used to trigger the overflow, whereas PERF_EVENT_PERIOD simply reports the requested period changed, which might only take effect on the next cycle). This still leaves us PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE to consider, but since that _should_ be a rare occurrence, and linking it to a primary id is the most useful bit to diagnose the problem, we introduce a PERF_SAMPLE_STREAM_ID, for those few cases where the full reconstruction is important.

2009-07-01perf_counter tools: Share list.h with the kernelArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
The copy we were using came from another copy I did for the dwarves (pahole) package, that came from the kernel years ago. The only function that is used by the perf tools and that isn't in the kernel is list_del_range, that I'm leaving in the perf tools only for now.

2009-06-25perf_counter: Rework the sample ABIPeter Zijlstra
The PERF_EVENT_READ implementation made me realize we don't actually need the sample_type int the output sample, since we already have that in the perf_counter_attr information. Therefore, remove the PERF_EVENT_MISC_OVERFLOW bit and the event->type overloading, and imply put counter overflow samples in a PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE type. This also fixes the issue that event->type was only 32-bit and sample_type had 64 usable bits.

2009-06-23perf_counter tools: Handle overlapping MMAP eventsPeter Zijlstra
Martin Schwidefsky reported "perf report" symbol resolution problems on S390. Since we only report MMAP, not MUNMAP, we have to deal with overlapping maps. We used to simply throw out the old map on the assumption whole maps got unmapped. This obviously doesn't deal with partial unmaps. However it appears some dynamic linkers do fancy partial unmaps (s390), so do something more elaborate and truncate the old maps, only removing them when they've been fully covered. This resolves (part of) the S390 symbol resolution problems.

2009-06-19perf_counter tools: Define and use our own u64, s64 etc. definitionsPaul Mackerras
On 64-bit powerpc, __u64 is defined to be unsigned long rather than unsigned long long. This causes compiler warnings every time we print a __u64 value with %Lx. Rather than changing __u64, we define our own u64 to be unsigned long long on all architectures, and similarly s64 as signed long long. For consistency we also define u32, s32, u16, s16, u8 and s8. These definitions are put in a new header, types.h, because these definitions are needed in util/string.h and util/symbol.h. The main change here is the mechanical change of __[us]{64,32,16,8} to remove the "__". The other changes are: * Create types.h * Include types.h in perf.h, util/string.h and util/symbol.h * Add types.h to the LIB_H definition in Makefile * Added (u64) casts in process_overflow_event() and print_sym_table() to kill two remaining warnings.
