2010-05-22perf annotate: Add TUI interfaceArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
When annotating multiple entries, for instance, when running simply as: $ perf annotate the right and left keys, as well as TAB can be used to cycle thru the multiple symbols being annotated. If one doesn't like TUI annotate, disable it by editing ~/.perfconfig and adding: [tui] annotate = off Just like it is possible for report.

2010-05-20perf tui: Allow disabling the TUI on a per command basis in ~/.perfconfigArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Using the same scheme as for git's/perf's pager setup, i.e. if one doesn't want to, on a newt enabled perf binary, to disable the TUI for 'perf report', its just a matter of doing: [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# printf "[tui]\n\nreport = off\n" > /root/.perfconfig [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# cat /root/.perfconfig [tui] report = off [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# System wide settings are also possible, by editing /etc/perfconfig, etc, i.e. the git machinery for config files applies to perf as well, so when in doubt where to put your settings, consult the git documentation, if it fails, please let us know.

2010-05-20perf annotate: Use build-ids to find the right DSOArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
We were still using the pathname found on the MMAP event, that could not be the one we used when recording, so use the build-id cache for that, only falling back to use the pathname in the MMAP event if no build-ids are available. With this we now also are able to do secure, seamless offline annotation.

Accessing trace values of an 8 size may end up in a segfault on archs that can't deal with misaligned access, which is the case for sparc 64.

2010-05-14perf report: Report number of events, not samplesArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Number of samples is meaningless after we switched to auto-freq, so report the number of events, i.e. not the sum of the different periods, but the number PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE emitted by the kernel. While doing this I noticed that naming "count" to the sum of all the event periods can be confusing, so rename it to .period, just like in struct sample.data, so that we become more consistent. This helps with the next step, that was to record in struct hist_entry the number of sample events for each instance, we need that because we use it to generate the number of events when applying filters to the tree of hist entries like it is being done in the TUI report browser.

The events_stats.total field is too generic, rename it to .total_period, and also add a comment explaining that it is the sum of all the .period fields in samples, that is needed because we use auto-freq to avoid sampling artifacts. Ditto for events_stats.lost, that is the sum of all lost_event.lost fields, i.e. the number of events the kernel dropped. Looking at the users, builtin-sched.c can make use of these fields and stop doing it again.

2010-05-11perf report: Librarize the annotation code and use it in the newt browserArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Now we don't anymore use popen to run 'perf annotate' for the selected symbol, instead we collect per address samplings when processing samples in 'perf report' if we're using the newt browser, then we use this data directly to do annotation. Done this way we can actually traverse the objdump_line objects directly, matching the addresses to the collected samples and colouring them appropriately using lower level slang routines. The new ui_browser class will be reused for the main, callchain aware, histogram browser, when it will be made generic and don't assume that the objects are always instances of the objdump_line class maintained using list_heads.

2010-05-11perf ui: Add ui_helpline methodsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Initially this was just to be able to have a printf like method to prepare the formatted string and then pass to newtPushHelpLine, but as we already have for ui_progress, etc, its a step in identifying a restricted, highlevel set of widgets we can then have implementations for multiple widget sets (GTK, etc).

2010-05-11perf: Fix static strings treated like dynamic onesFrederic Weisbecker
The raw_field_ptr() helper, used to retrieve the address of a field inside a trace event, treats every strings as if they were dynamic ie: having a secondary level of indirection to retrieve their contents. FIELD_IS_STRING doesn't mean FIELD_IS_DYNAMIC, we only need to compute the secondary dereference for the latter case. This fixes perf sched segfaults, bad cmdline report and may be some other bugs.

2010-05-10perf hist: Introduce hists class and move lots of methods to itArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
In cbbc79a we introduced support for multiple events by introducing a new "event_stat_id" struct and then made several perf_session methods receive a point to it instead of a pointer to perf_session, and kept the event_stats and hists rb_tree in perf_session. While working on the new newt based browser, I realised that it would be better to introduce a new class, "hists" (short for "histograms"), renaming the "event_stat_id" struct and the perf_session methods that were really "hists" methods, as they manipulate only struct hists members, not touching anything in the other perf_session members. Other optimizations, such as calculating the maximum lenght of a symbol name present in an hists instance will be possible as we add them, avoiding a re-traversal just for finding that information. The rationale for the name "hists" to replace "event_stat_id" is that we may have multiple sets of hists for the same event_stat id, as, for instance, the 'perf diff' tool has, so event stat id is not what characterizes what this struct and the functions that manipulate it do.

2010-05-10perf session: create_kernel_maps should use ->host_machineArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Using machines__create_kernel_maps(..., HOST_KERNEL_ID) it would create another machine instance for the host machine, and since 1f626bc we have it out of the machines rb_tree. Fix it by using machine__create_kernel_maps(&self->host_machine) directly.

2010-05-09perf report: Allow limiting the number of entries to print in callchainsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Works by adding a third parameter to the '-g' argument, after the graph type and minimum percentage, for example: [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf report -g fractal,0.5,2 Will show only the first two symbols where at least 0.5% of the samples took place. All the other symbols that don't fall outside these constraints will be put together in the last entry, prefixed with "[...]" and the total percentage for them.

2010-05-09perf session: Embed the host machine data on perf_sessionArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
We have just one host on a given session, and that is the most common setup right now, so embed a ->host_machine struct machine instance directly in the perf_session class, check if we're looking for it before going to the rb_tree. This also fixes a problem found when we try to process old perf.data files where we didn't have MMAP events for the kernel and modules and thus don't create the kernel maps, do it in event__preprocess_sample if it wasn't already.
