* perf machine: Adopt some map_groups functionsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2010-04-271-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Those functions operated on members now grouped in 'struct machine', so move those methods to this new class. The changes made to 'perf probe' shows that using this abstraction inserting probes on guests almost got supported for free.

* perf tools: Rename "kernel_info" to "machine"Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2010-04-271-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct kernel_info and kerninfo__ are too vague, what they really describe are machines, virtual ones or hosts. There are more changes to introduce helpers to shorten function calls and to make more clear what is really being done, but I left that for subsequent patches.

* perf: Generalize perf lock's sample event reordering to the session layerFrederic Weisbecker2010-04-241-1/+178
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sample events recorded by perf record are not time ordered because we have one buffer per cpu for each event (even demultiplexed per task/per cpu for task bound events). But when we read trace events we want them to be ordered by time because many state machines are involved. There are currently two ways perf tools deal with that: - use -M to multiplex every buffers (perf sched, perf kmem) But this creates a lot of contention in SMP machines on record time. - use a post-processing time reordering (perf timechart, perf lock) The reordering used by timechart is simple but doesn't scale well with huge flow of events, in terms of performance and memory use (unusable with perf lock for example). Perf lock has its own samples reordering that flushes its memory use in a regular basis and that uses a sorting based on the previous event queued (a new event to be queued is close to the previous one most of the time). This patch proposes to export perf lock's samples reordering facility to the session layer that reads the events. So if a tool wants to get ordered sample events, it needs to set its struct perf_event_ops::ordered_samples to true and that's it. This prepares tracing based perf tools to get rid of the need to use buffers multiplexing (-M) or to implement their own reordering. Also lower the flush period to 2 as it's sufficient already.

* perf: Convert perf tracing data into a tracing_data eventTom Zanussi2010-04-141-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bypasses the tracing_data perf header code and replaces it with a synthesized event and processing function that accomplishes the same thing, used when reading/writing perf data to/from a pipe. The tracing data is pretty large, and this patch doesn't attempt to break it down into component events. The tracing_data event itself doesn't actually contain the tracing data, rather it arranges for the event processing code to skip over it after it's read, using the skip return value added to the event processing loop in a previous patch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bypasses the attr perf header code and replaces it with a synthesized event and processing function that accomplishes the same thing, used when reading/writing perf data to/from a pipe. Making the attrs into events allows them to be streamed over a pipe along with the rest of the header data (in later patches).

* perf: Add pipe-specific header read/write and event processing codeTom Zanussi2010-04-141-9/+126
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes several changes to allow the perf event stream to be sent and received over a pipe: - adds pipe-specific versions of the header read/write code - adds pipe-specific version of the event processing code - adds a range of event types to be used for header or other pseudo events, above the range used by the kernel - checks the return value of event handlers, which they can use to skip over large events during event processing rather than actually reading them into event objects. - unifies the multiple do_read() functions and updates its users. Note that none of these changes affect the existing perf data file format or processing - this code only comes into play if perf output is sent to stdout (or is read from stdin).

* perf report: Add progress barsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2010-04-021-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For when we are processing the events and inserting the entries in the browser. Experimentation here: naming "ui_something" we may be treading into creating a TUI/GUI set of routines that can then be implemented in terms of multiple backends. Also the time it takes for adding things to the "browser" takes, visually (I guess I should do some profiling here ;-) ), more time than for processing the events... That means we probably need to create a custom hist_entry browser, so that we reuse the structures we have in place instead of duplicating them in newt. But progress was made and at least we can see something while long files are being loaded, that must be one of UI 101 bullet points :-) Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

* perf symbols: Remove perf_session usage in symbols layerArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2010-02-041-11/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed while writing the first test in 'perf regtest' that to just test the symbol handling routines one needs to create a perf session, that is a layer centered on a perf.data file, events, etc, so I untied these layers. This reduces the complexity for the users as the number of parameters to most of the symbols and session APIs now was reduced while not adding more state to all the map instances by only having data that is needed to split the kernel (kallsyms and ELF symtab sections) maps and do vmlinux relocation on the main kernel map.

* perf tools: Encode kernel module mappings in perf.dataArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2010-01-131-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were always looking at the running machine /proc/modules, even when processing a perf.data file, which only makes sense when we're doing 'perf record' and 'perf report' on the same machine, and in close sucession, or if we don't use modules at all, right Peter? ;-) Now, at 'perf record' time we read /proc/modules, find the long path for modules, and put them as PERF_MMAP events, just like we did to encode the reloc reference symbol for vmlinux. Talking about that now it is encoded in .pgoff, so that we can use .{start,len} to store the address boundaries for the kernel so that when we reconstruct the kmaps tree we can do lookups right away, without having to fixup the end of the kernel maps like we did in the past (and now only in perf record). One more step in the 'perf archive' direction when we'll finally be able to collect data in one machine and analyse in another.

* perf tools: Handle relocatable kernelsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2010-01-131-0/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DSOs don't have this problem because the kernel emits a PERF_MMAP for each new executable mapping it performs on monitored threads. To fix the kernel case we simulate the same behaviour, by having 'perf record' to synthesize a PERF_MMAP for the kernel, encoded like this: [root@doppio ~]# perf record -a -f sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.344 MB perf.data (~15038 samples) ] [root@doppio ~]# perf report -D | head -10 0xd0 [0x40]: event: 1 . . ... raw event: size 64 bytes . 0000: 01 00 00 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ......@........ . 0010: 00 00 00 81 ff ff ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ............... . 0020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 5b 6b 65 72 6e 65 6c 2e ........

Then, later, in 'perf report', if there are any kernel hits and thus we need to resolve kernel symbols, we search for REFNAME and if its address changed, relocation happened and we thus must change the kernel mapping routines to one that uses .pgoff as the relocation to apply. This way we use the same mechanism used for the other DSOs and don't have to do a two pass in all the kernel symbols.
