| * | | | | perf stat: Add stalled cycles accounting, prettify the resulting outputIngo Molnar2011-04-261-13/+30

| * | | | | perf stat: Fail more clearly when an invalid modifier is specifiedIngo Molnar2011-04-261-11/+22

The reason is that the task-clock event is matched and the "-msecs" postfix is assumed to be an event modifier - but is not recognized. This patch changes the code to be more informative: $ perf stat -e task-clock-msecs true invalid event modifier: '-msecs' Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events and modifiers And restructures the return value of parse_event_modifier() to allow the printing of all variants of invalid event modifiers.

If the attribute for a default field is not present for the event type (e.g., new command operating on file from older kernel) the field is removed from the output list. Expected event types must exist. For example, if a user specifies -f trace:time,trace -f sw:time,cpu,sym the perf.data file must contain both tracepoints and software events (ie., it is an error if either does not exist in the file). Attribute checking is done once at the beginning of perf-script rather than for each sample. v1 -> v2: - addressed comments from acme Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1302148460-570-1-git-send-email-daahern@cisco.com Signed-off-by: David Ahern <daahern@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

However, users often have an ancillary Python 2 installed: python2{,-config} Therefore, a quick fix is to allow the user to specify those ancillary paths as the python binaries that Makefile should use, thereby avoiding Python 3 altogether; as an added benefit, the Python binaries may be installed in non-standard locations without the need for updating any PATH variable. This commit adds the ability to set PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG either as environment variables or as make variables on the command line; the paths may be relative, and usually only PYTHON is necessary in order for PYTHON_CONFIG to be defined implicitly. Some rudimentary error checking is performed when the user explicitly specifies a value for any of these variables. In addition, this commit introduces significantly robust makefile infrastructure for working with paths and communicating with the shell; it's currently only used for handling Python, but I hope it will prove useful in refactoring the makefiles.

The field (-f) arguments are processed in the order received. A later usage can reset a prior request. e.g., -f trace: -f comm,tid,time,sym The first -f suppresses trace events (field list is ""), but then the second invocation sets the fields to comm,tid,time,sym. In this case a warning is given to the user: "Overriding previous field request for all events." Alternativey, consider the order: -f comm,tid,time,sym -f trace: The first -f sets the fields for all events and the second -f suppresses trace events. The user is given a warning message about the override, and the result of the above is that only S/W and H/W events are displayed with the given fields. For the 'wildcard' option if a user selected field is invalid for an event type, a message is displayed to the user that the option is ignored for that type. For example: perf script -f comm,tid,trace 2>&1 | less 'trace' not valid for hardware events. Ignoring. 'trace' not valid for software events. Ignoring. Alternatively, if the type is given an invalid field is specified it is an error. For example: perf script -v -f sw:comm,tid,trace 2>&1 | less 'trace' not valid for software events. At this point usage is displayed, and perf-script exits. Finally, a user may not set fields to none for all event types. i.e., -f "" is not allowed.

Now it causes segment fault if 'a' is pressed on a null symbol. Here are 2 small bugs: - In perf_evsel__hists_browse, the condition check after 'a' is pressed is not correct, we should check ->sym instead of ->map. - In symbol__tui_annotate we must check whether sym is NULL or not before getting annotation structure.

This patch updates find_perf_probe_point() and introduces new rules to get correct line number. - If debuginfo doesn't have a correct file name, we shouldn't return line number too, because, without file name, line number is meaningless. - If the address is in a function, it stores the function name and the offset from the function entry. - If the address is on a line, it tries to get the relative line number from the function entry line, except for the address is same as the entry address of the function (in this case, the relative line number should be 0). - If the address is in an inline function entry (call-site), it uses the inline function call line number as the line on which the address is. - If the address is in an inline function body, it stores the inline function name and offset from the inline function call site instead of the (non-inlined) function.

However the page size may vary accross different architecture settings, giving different default size between each. Moreover the kernel side still has a default max number of mlocked pages of 512 kiB + 1 page for unprivileged users. 128 + 1 pages with page size > 4096 overlaps this threshold. Thus, better adapt to this limitation and set the default number of pages to fit those 512 kiB + 1 page.

We cannot isolate the fix to symbol__new and symbol__delete since the private area is computed by subtracting the priv_size value from a "struct symbol" pointer, so then the private area can still be potentially unaligned.

It looks like it was meant to work. Tested on 2.6.38 and today's -git. The bug is easy to reproduce. Compile this: int main() { int i; struct timespec t; for(i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &t); return 0; } and run it through perf record; perf report. The top entry shows "[unknown]" and you can't zoom in. It looks like there are two issues. The first is a that a test for user mode executing in kernel space is backwards. (That's the first hunk below). The second (I think) is that something's wrong with the code that generates lots of little struct dso objects for different sections -- when it runs on vmlinux it results in bogus long_name values which cause objdump to fail.

Good also because it does an extra validation, checking that the ID is valid when present. When that is not the case, the overhead is just a branch + function call (perf_evlist__id2evsel).
