2011-10-18perf tui: Remove unneeded call to newtCls on startupArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
That was just filling the screen with blue, even if not a crash, not something pleasant nor useful ;-) Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-58znjqvan9b1mv5pojxboidg@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2011-10-18perf hists: Don't format the percentage on hist_entry__snprintfArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
We can't have color correctly set there because in libslang (and in a future GUI) the colors must be set on a separate function call, so move that part to a separate function and make the stdio fprintf function call it.

2011-10-18perf ui browser: Allow initial use without navigation UI elementsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
The selection and scroll bar are really needed only when the user starts navigating, before that it just provide distractions. This also brings the initial screen to look more like the stdio UI, which more people are used to. The new code is flexible enough that menu like browsers can opt out and start with those UI elements.

2011-10-18tools, slub: Fix off-by-one buffer corruption after readlink() callThomas Jarosch
readlink() never zero terminates the provided buffer. Therefore we already do buffer[count] = 0; This leads to an off-by-one buffer corruption as readlink() might return the full size of the buffer. The common technique is to reduce the buffer size by one. Another fix would be to check if (count < 0 || count == sizeof(buffer)) fatal(); Reducing the buffer size by one is easier IMHO.

2011-10-17ktest: Add processing of complex conditionalsSteven Rostedt
The IF statements for DEFAULTS and TEST_START sections now handle complex statements (&&,||) Example: TEST_START IF (DEFINED ALL_TESTS || ${MYTEST} == boottest) && ${MACHINE} == gandalf Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-10-17ktest: Fix parsing of config section linesSteven Rostedt
The order for some of the keywords on a section line (TEST_START or DEFAULTS) does not really matter. Simply need to remove the keyword from the line as we process it and evaluate the next keyword in the line. By removing the keywords as we find them, we do not need to keep track of where on the line they were found. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-10-17ktest: Sort make_min_config configs by dependeciesSteven Rostedt
The make_min_config test will turn off one config at a time and check if the config boots or not, and if it does, it will remove that config plus any config that depended on that config. ktest already looks if a config has a dependency and will try the dependency config first. But by sorting the configs and trying the config with the most configs dependent on it, we can shrink the minconfig faster. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-10-17ktest: Add DEFINED keyword for IF statementsSteven Rostedt
Have IF statements process if a config variable or option has been defined or not. Can use NOT DEFINED in the case for telling if a variable or option has not been defined. DEFAULTS IF NOT DEFINED SSH_USER SSH_USER = root Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-10-17ktest: Add OVERRIDE keyword to DEFAULTS sectionSteven Rostedt
The OVERRIDE keyword will allow options defined in the given DEFAULTS section to override options defined in previous DEFAULT sections. Normally, options will error if they were previous defined. The OVERRIDE keyword allows options that have been previously defined to be changed in the given section. Note, the same option can not be defined in the same DEFAULT section even if that section is marked as OVERRIDE. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-10-17ktest: Consolidate TEST_TYPE and DEFAULT codeSteven Rostedt

2011-10-17ktest: Let IF keyword take comparisonsSteven Rostedt
Allow ==, !=, <=, >=, <, and > to be used in IF statements to compare if a section should be processed or not. For example: BITS := 32 DEFAULTS IF ${BITS} == 32 MIN_CONFIG = ${CONFIG_DIR}/config-32 ELSE MIN_CONFIG = ${CONFIG_DIR}/config-64 Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-10-17ktest: Add IF and ELSE to config sectionsSteven Rostedt
Add IF keyword to sections within the config. Also added an ELSE keyword that allows different config options to be set for a given section. For example: TYPE := 1 STATUS := 0 DEFAULTS IF ${TYPE} [...] ELSE IF ${STATUS} [...] ELSE [...] The above will process the first section as $TYPE is true. If it was false, it would process the last section as $STATUS is false. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-10-17ktest: Do not reboot on config or build issuesSteven Rostedt
Even if REBOOT_ON_ERROR is set, it becomes annoying that the target machine is rebooted when a config option is incorrect or a build fails. There's no reason to reboot the target for host only issues. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-10-17ktest: Add option REBOOT_SUCCESS_LINE to stop waiting after a rebootSteven Rostedt
When ktest.pl reboots, it will usuall wait SLEEP_TIME seconds of idle console before starting the next test. By setting the REBOOT_SUCCESS_LINE, ktest will not wait SLEEP_TIME when it detects the line while rebooting to a new kernel. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-10-17ktest: Add NO_INSTALL option to not install for a testSteven Rostedt
There's cases where running the same kernel over and over again is useful, and being able to not install the same kernel can save time between tests. Add a NO_INSTALL option that tells ktest.pl to not install the new kernel. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2011-10-14perf hists browser: Invalidate ui_browser->top after timer callsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
With underlying dynamic data structures we need to invalidate pointers to them after a timer, as that entry may have vanished (decayed in top, for instance). I forgot about browser_ui->top. Fix it by resetting it to null after a timer. The seek operation from SEEK_SET will then set it to a valid entry because it starts from rb_first(&hists->entries).

2011-10-13perf hists browser: Fix handling of TAB/UNTAB for multiple eventsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
When using multiple events the 'top' and 'report' tools will first present the user with a menu to choose the event to browse. After that the user can either press <- to go back to the menu and choose another event or instead press TAB to go the next event without having to go back to the menu or shift-TAB (UNTAB) to go the previous event, useful to quickly visually see if multiple events are correlated. The handling of each hists browser return was broken by the ed7e566, that combined both switches, the first that was for choosing the event and the second that was for checking if switching to the next event without passing thru the events menu. Repeat with me: Don't be clever like that. Fix it by moving the switch to right after the call to the hists browser, making abundantly clear that the two switches are unrelated. This also fixes a compiler warning about the 'pos' variable being possibly used unitialized.

2011-10-11perf hists browser: Recalculate browser pointers after resort/decayArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
In browsers that access dynamic underlying data structures, like in the hists browser and its hist_entry rb_tree, we need to revalidate any reference to the underlying data structure, because they can have gone away, decayed. This fixes a problem where after a while the top entries get behind the top of the screen, i.e. the top_idx stays at 0, which means it is at the first entry in the rb_tree when in fact it wasn't because the browser->top didn't got revalidated after the timer ran and the underlying data structure got updated.

2011-10-07perf tools: Make perf.data more self-descriptive (v8)Stephane Eranian
The goal of this patch is to include more information about the host environment into the perf.data so it is more self-descriptive. Overtime, profiles are captured on various machines and it becomes hard to track what was recorded, on what machine and when. This patch provides a way to solve this by extending the perf.data file with basic information about the host machine. To add those extensions, we leverage the feature bits capabilities of the perf.data format. The change is backward compatible with existing perf.data files. We define the following useful new extensions: - HEADER_HOSTNAME: the hostname - HEADER_OSRELEASE: the kernel release number - HEADER_ARCH: the hw architecture - HEADER_CPUDESC: generic CPU description - HEADER_NRCPUS: number of online/avail cpus - HEADER_CMDLINE: perf command line - HEADER_VERSION: perf version - HEADER_TOPOLOGY: cpu topology - HEADER_EVENT_DESC: full event description (attrs) - HEADER_CPUID: easy-to-parse low level CPU identication The small granularity for the entries is to make it easier to extend without breaking backward compatiblity. Many entries are provided as ASCII strings. Perf report/script have been modified to print the basic information as easy-to-parse ASCII strings.

2011-10-07perf hists browser: Update the browser.nr_entries after the timerArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Previously the hist_browser dealt with a static tree of entries, now it needs to update the nr_entries in the browser after the timer runs. A better solution will come when moving using another thread for the collapse_resort, etc, but for now this is ok.

2011-10-07perf hists browser: Fix TAB/UNTAB use with multiple eventsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
When requesting multiple events, say: # perf top -e instructions -e cycles -e cache-misses The first screen lets the user chose what to see first, then to switch one can either use the left key to get back to the event menu or simply use TAB to go the next and shift+TAB to go the prev. When using TAB/UNTAB the call to perf_evlist__set_selected(event) was missing, fix it.

2011-10-07perf tools: Fix broken number of samples for perf report -nStephane Eranian
The perf report -n option was broken because it was not reporting the correct number of samples depending on the sorting mode. By default, samples are sorted by comm,dso,sym. That means that samples for the same command (binary) get collapsed. The hists__collapse_insert_entry() had a bug whereby it was aggregating the number of events observed (periods) but not the number of samples. Consequently, the number of samples reported could be below reality. The percentage remained correct because based on the periods. This patch fixes the problem by also aggregating the number of samples. Here is an example: $ perf report -n --stdio 12.38% 842 pong [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __lock_acquire Here pong (a ctxsw stress test), is the only program running and thus it is the only one responsible for the lock_acquire samples. If we change the sorting mode: $ perf report -n --stdio --sort=sym 12.38% 1732 [k] __lock_acquire The actual number of samples is shown. With the fix: $ perf report -n --stdio 12.38% 1732 pong [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __lock_acquire Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20111003093815.GA6393@quad Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2011-10-07perf top: Use the TUI interface by defaultArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
To disable it either: 1. Make sure newt-devel is not installed when building it 2. Use 'perf top --stdio' just like with report 3. Edit your ~/.perfconfig or system wide config and have this there: [tui] top = off But you shouldn't, since the TUI is so much more powerful, has integration with annotation and where lots more interesting features will be developed, so if something annoys you (the colors?) just let me know and I'll do my best to make it pleasant as a default.
