2010-10-21perf probe: Add basic module supportMasami Hiramatsu
Add basic module probe support on perf probe. This introduces "--module <MODNAME>" option to perf probe for putting probes and showing lines and variables in the given module. Currently, this supports only probing on running modules. Supporting off-line module probing is the next step. e.g.) [show lines] # ./perf probe --module drm -L drm_vblank_info <drm_vblank_info:0> 0 int drm_vblank_info(struct seq_file *m, void *data) 1 { struct drm_info_node *node = (struct drm_info_node *) m->private 3 struct drm_device *dev = node->minor->dev; ...

2010-10-04perf trace scripting: Fix extern struct definitionsStephane Eranian
Both python_scripting_ops and perl_scripting_ops have two global definitions. One in trace-event-scripting.c and one in their respective scripting-engine modules. The issue is that depending on the linker order one definition or the other is chosen. One is uninitialized (bss), while the other is initialized. If the uninitialized version is chosen, then perf does not function properly. This patch fixes this by adding the extern prefix to the definitions in trace-event-scripting.c. Cc: David S.

2010-09-07perf: Add a script to show packets processingKoki Sanagi
Add a perf script which shows packets processing and processed time. It helps us to investigate networking or network devices. If you want to use it, install perf and record perf.data like following. If you set script, perf gathers records until it ends. If not, you must Ctrl-C to stop recording. And if you want a report from record, If you use some options, you can limit the output. Option is below. tx: show only tx packets processing rx: show only rx packets processing dev=: show processing on this device debug: work with debug mode. It shows buffer status. For example, if you want to show received packets processing associated with eth4, 106133.171439sec cpu=0 irq_entry(+0.000msec irq=24:eth4) | softirq_entry(+0.006msec) | |---netif_receive_skb(+0.010msec skb=f2d15900 len=100) | | | skb_copy_datagram_iovec(+0.039msec 10291::10291) | napi_poll_exit(+0.022msec eth4) This perf script helps us to analyze the processing time of a transmit/receive sequence.

2010-08-27perf: Initialize callchains roots's childen hitsFrederic Weisbecker
Each histogram entry has a callchain root that stores the callchain samples. However we forgot to initialize the tracking of children hits of these roots, which then got random values on their creation. The root children hits is multiplied by the minimum percentage of hits provided by the user, and the result becomes the minimum hits expected from children branches. If the random value due to the uninitialization is big enough, then this minimum number of hits can be huge and eventually filter every children branches. The end result was invisible callchains. All we need to fix this is to initialize the children hits of the root.

2010-08-25perf hists browser: Introduce "expand/collapse all callchains" actionArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
When looking at a callchains enabled perf data file one can find it tiresome to start with all callchains collapsed and then to have to go one by one expanding them. So associate 'E' with "Expand all callchains" and 'C' with "Collapse all callchains". This way now one can have the top level view and then switch to/from having all callchains expanded. More work is needed to allow expanding just from one branch down to its leaves.

2010-08-22perf: Support for callchains mergeFrederic Weisbecker
If we sort the histograms by comm, which is the default, we need to merge some of them, typically different thread histograms of a same process, or just same comm. But during this merge, we forgot to merge callchains. So imagine we have three threads (tids: 1000, 1001, 1002) that belong to comm "foo". tid 1000 got 100 events tid 1001 got 10 events tid 1002 got 3 events Once we merge these histograms to get a per comm result, we'll finally get: "foo" got 113 events The problem is if we merge 1000 and 1001 histograms into 1002, then the end merge result, wrt callchains, will be only callchains that belong to 1002. This is because we haven't handled callchains in the merge. Only those from one of the threads inside a common comm survive. It means during this merge, we can lose a lot of callchains. Fix this by implementing callchains merge and apply it on histograms that collapse.

2010-08-22perf: Keep track of the max depth of a callchainFrederic Weisbecker
In order to implement callchains collapsing, we need to keep track of the maximum depth in a histogram tree of callchains. This way we'll avoid allocating an arbitrary temporary buffer size on callchain merge time.

2010-08-19perf ui browser: Add routines to compactly specify exit keysArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
This makes the usual idiom for specifying a series of key codes to exit ui_browser__run() for specialized processing (search, annotate, etc) or plain exiting the browser more compact. It also abstracts away some more libnewt operations. At some point we'll also replace NEWT_KEY_foo with something that can be mapped to NEWT or, say, gtk.

Parts of the build process were generating files outside the specified O= directory, causing the build to fail on systems where the sources are in a read only file system. Fix it by using $(OUTPUT) on these locations. Also check that $(OUTPUT) actually exists, just like the top level kernel Makefile does. Otherwise the failure message emitted is completely misleading.

2010-08-16perf annotate tui: Fix exit and RIGHT keys handlingArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
As part of ongoing effort to reduce the coupling with libnewt, browsers are being changed to return the exit key. The annotate browser is not returning it as expected by builtin-annotate when annotating multiple symbols (when 'perf annotate' is called without specifying a symbol name). Fix it by returning the exit key and also adding the RIGHT key as a exit key so that going to the next symbol in the TUI can work again.
