2016-05-20perf trace: Warn when trying to resolve kernel addresses with kptr_restrict=1Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Hook into the libtraceevent plugin kernel symbol resolver to warn the user that that can't happen with kptr_restrict=1.

2016-05-20perf machine: Do not bail out if not managing to read ref reloc symbolArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
This means the user can't access /proc/kallsyms, for instance, because /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict is set to 1. Instead leave the ref_reloc_sym as NULL and code using it will cope. This allows 'perf trace' to work on such systems for !root, the only issue would be when trying to resolve kernel symbols, which happens, for instance, in some libtracevent plugins. A warning for that case will be provided in the next patch in this series. Noticed in Ubuntu 16.04, that comes with kptr_restrict=1.

2016-05-16perf tools: Separate accounting of contexts and real addresses in a stack traceArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
The perf_sample->ip_callchain->nr value includes all the entries in the ip_callchain->ip[] array, real addresses and PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER,etc}, while what the user expects is that what is in the kernel.perf_event_max_stack sysctl or in the upcoming per event perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack knob be honoured in terms of IP addresses in the stack trace. So match the kernel support and validate chain->nr taking into account both kernel.perf_event_max_stack and kernel.perf_event_max_contexts_per_stack.

2016-05-16perf stat: Use cpu-clock event for cpu targetsNamhyung Kim
Currently 'perf stat' always counts task-clock event by default. But it's somewhat confusing for system-wide targets (especially with 'sleep N' as the 'sleep' task just sleeps and doesn't use cputime). Changing to cpu-clock event instead for that case makes more sense IMHO. Before: # perf stat -a sleep 0.1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 403.038603 task-clock (msec) # 4.001 CPUs utilized 150 context-switches # 0.372 K/sec 7 cpu-migrations # 0.017 K/sec 71 page-faults # 0.176 K/sec 23,705,169 cycles # 0.059 GHz 15,888,166 instructions # 0.67 insn per cycle 3,326,078 branches # 8.253 M/sec 87,643 branch-misses # 2.64% of all branches 0.100737009 seconds time elapsed # After: # perf stat -a sleep 0.1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 404.271182 cpu-clock (msec) # 4.000 CPUs utilized 143 context-switches # 0.354 K/sec 13 cpu-migrations # 0.032 K/sec 73 page-faults # 0.181 K/sec 22,119,220 cycles # 0.055 GHz 13,622,065 instructions # 0.62 insn per cycle 2,918,769 branches # 7.220 M/sec 85,033 branch-misses # 2.91% of all branches 0.101073089 seconds time elapsed # Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1463119263-5569-3-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2016-05-16perf stat: Update runtime using cpu-clock eventNamhyung Kim
Currently only the task-clock event updates the runtime_nsec so it cannot show the metric when using cpu-clock events. However cpu clock works basically same as task-clock, so no need to not update the runtime IMHO.

2016-05-12perf tools: Use readdir() instead of deprecated readdir_r()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
The readdir() function is thread safe as long as just one thread uses a DIR, which is the case when synthesizing events for pre-existing threads by traversing /proc, so, to avoid breaking the build with glibc-2.23.90 (upcoming 2.24), use it instead of readdir_r(). See: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/readdir.3.html "However, in modern implementations (including the glibc implementation), concurrent calls to readdir() that specify different directory streams are thread-safe. In cases where multiple threads must read from the same directory stream, using readdir() with external synchronization is still preferable to the use of the deprecated readdir_r(3) function." Noticed while building on a Fedora Rawhide docker container.

2016-05-11perf script: Fix export of callchains with recursion in db-exportChris Phlipot
When an IP with an unresolved symbol occurs in the callchain more than once (ie. recursion), then duplicate symbols can be created because the callchain nodes are never updated after they are first created. To fix this issue we call dso__find_symbol whenever we encounter a NULL symbol, in case we already added a symbol at that IP since we started traversing the callchain. This change prevents duplicate symbols from being exported when duplicate IPs are present in the callchain.

2016-05-11perf symbols: Add dso__insert_symbol functionChris Phlipot
The current method for inserting symbols is to use the symbols__insert() function. However symbols__insert() does not update the dso symbol cache. This causes problems in the following scenario: 1. symbol not found at addr using dso__find_symbol 2. symbol inserted at addr using the existing symbols__insert function 3. symbol still not found at addr using dso__find_symbol() because cache isn't updated. This is undesired behavior. The undesired behavior in (3) is addressed by creating a new function, dso__insert_symbol() to both insert the symbol and update the symbol cache if necessary. If dso__insert_symbol() is used in (2) instead of symbols__insert(), then the undesired behavior in (3) is avoided.

2016-05-09perf symbols: Fix handling of zero-length symbols.Chris Phlipot
This change introduces a fix to symbols__find, so that it is able to find symbols of length zero (where start == end). The current code has the following problem: - The current implementation of symbols__find is unable to find any symbols of length zero. - The db-export framework explicitly creates zero length symbols at locations where no symbol currently exists. The combination of the two above behaviors results in behavior similar to the example below. 1. addr_location is created for a sample, but symbol is unable to be resolved. 2. db export creates an "unknown" symbol of length zero at that address and inserts it into the dso. 3. A new sample comes in at the same address, but symbol__find is unable to find the zero length symbol, so it is still unresolved. 4. db export sees the symbol is unresolved, and allocated a duplicate symbol, even though it already did this in step 2. This behavior continues every time an address without symbol information is seen, which causes a very large number of these symbols to be allocated. The effect of this fix can be observed by looking at the contents of an exported database before/after the fix (generated with scripts/python/export-to-postgresql.py) Ex. BEFORE THE CHANGE: example_db=# select count(*) from symbols; count -------- 900213 (1 row) example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where symbols.name='unknown'; count -------- 897355 (1 row) example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where symbols.name!='unknown'; count ------- 2858 (1 row) AFTER THE CHANGE: example_db=# select count(*) from symbols; count ------- 25217 (1 row) example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where name='unknown'; count ------- 22359 (1 row) example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where name!='unknown'; count ------- 2858 (1 row) Signed-off-by: Chris Phlipot <cphlipot0@gmail.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1462612620-25008-1-git-send-email-cphlipot0@gmail.com [ Moved the test to later in the rb_tree tests, as this not the likely case ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
