2009-12-09perf_event: Allocate children's perf_event_ctxp at the right timeXiao Guangrong
In current code, children task will allocate memory for 'child->perf_event_ctxp' if the parent is counted, we can do it only if the parent allowed children inherit it. It can save memory and reduce overhead.

2009-12-09hw-breakpoints: Modify breakpoints without unregistering themFrederic Weisbecker
Currently, when ptrace needs to modify a breakpoint, like disabling it, changing its address, type or len, it calls modify_user_hw_breakpoint(). This latter will perform the heavy and racy task of unregistering the old breakpoint and registering a new one. This is racy as someone else might steal the reserved breakpoint slot under us, which is undesired as the breakpoint is only supposed to be modified, sometimes in the middle of a debugging workflow. We don't want our slot to be stolen in the middle. So instead of unregistering/registering the breakpoint, just disable it while we modify its breakpoint fields and re-enable it after if necessary.

2009-12-09perf probe: Fix add-probe command syntax without --add optionMasami Hiramatsu
Fix add-probe command syntax without --add option. perf-probe supports add-probe command without --add option. But it treats each argument as an event definition. e.g. perf probe func arg1 arg2 is interpreted as perf probe --add func --add arg1 --add arg2 But it may be useless in many cases. This patch fixes this syntax to fold those arguments into one event definition if there is no --add option.

2009-12-07hw-breakpoints: Fix task-bound breakpoint slot allocationFrederic Weisbecker
Whatever the context nature of a breakpoint, we always perform the following constraint checks before allocating it a slot: - Check the number of pinned breakpoint bound the concerned cpus - Check the max number of task-bound breakpoints that are belonging to a task. - Add both and see if we have a reamining slot for the new breakpoint This is the right thing to do when we are about to register a cpu-only bound breakpoint. But not if we are dealing with a task bound breakpoint. What we want in this case is: - Check the number of pinned breakpoint bound the concerned cpus - Check the number of breakpoints that already belong to the task in which the breakpoint to register is bound to. - Add both This fixes a regression that makes the "firefox -g" command fail to register breakpoints once we deal with a secondary thread.

- util/header.c "len" is aligned to 64. So, it tries to write the out of long_name buffer. So, this use "zero_buf" to write aligned area. - util/trace-event-read.c "size" is not including nul byte. So, this allocates it, and set '\0'. - util/trace-event-parse.c It needs parens to calc correct size.

2009-12-06perf: Make common SAMPLE_EVENT parserOGAWA Hirofumi
Currently, sample event data is parsed for each commands, and it is assuming that the data is not including other data. (E.g. timechart, trace, etc. can't parse the event if it has PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN) So, even if we record the superset data for multiple commands at a time, commands can't parse. etc. To fix it, this makes common sample event parser, and use it to parse sample event correctly. (PERF_SAMPLE_READ is unsupported for now though, it seems to be not using.)

2009-12-06x86: Fixup wrong irq frame link in stacktracesFrederic Weisbecker
When we enter in irq, two things can happen to preserve the link to the previous frame pointer: - If we were in an irq already, we don't switch to the irq stack as we are inside. We just need to save the previous frame pointer and to link the new one to the previous. - Otherwise we need another level of indirection. We enter the irq with the previous stack. We save the previous bp inside and make bp pointing to its saved address. Then we switch to the irq stack and push bp another time but to the new stack. This makes two levels to dereference instead of one. In the second case, the current stacktrace code omits the second level and loses the frame pointer accuracy. The stack that follows will then be considered as unreliable. Handling that makes the perf callchain happier.

2009-12-06x86: Fixup wrong debug exception frame link in stacktracesFrederic Weisbecker
While dumping a stacktrace, the end of the exception stack won't link the frame pointer to the previous stack. The interrupted stack will then be considered as unreliable and ignored by perf, as the frame pointer is unreliable itself. This happens because we overwrite the frame pointer that links to the interrupted frame with the address of the exception stack. This is done in order to reserve space inside. But rbp has been chosen here only because it is not a scratch register, so that the address of the exception stack remains in rbp after calling do_debug(), we can then release the exception stack space without the need to retrieve its address again. But we can pick another non-scratch register to do that, so that we preserve the link to the interrupted stack frame in the stacktraces. Just randomly choose r12. Every registers are saved just before and restored just after calling do_debug(). And r12 is not used in the middle, which makes it a perfect candidate. Example: perf record -g -a -c 1 -f -e mem:$(tasklist_lock_addr):rw Before: 44.18% [k] _raw_read_lock | | --- |--6.31%-- waitid | |--4.26%-- writev | |--3.63%-- __select | |--3.15%-- __waitpid | | | |--28.57%-- 0x8b52e00000139f | | | |--28.57%-- 0x8b52e0000013c6 | | | |--14.29%-- 0x7fde786dc000 | | | |--14.29%-- 0x62696c2f7273752f | | | --14.29%-- 0x1ea9df800000000 | |--3.00%-- __poll After: 43.94% [k] _raw_read_lock | --- _read_lock | |--60.53%-- send_sigio | __kill_fasync | kill_fasync | evdev_pass_event | evdev_event | input_pass_event | input_handle_event | input_event | synaptics_process_byte | psmouse_handle_byte | psmouse_interrupt | serio_interrupt | i8042_interrupt | handle_IRQ_event | handle_edge_irq | handle_irq | __irqentry_text_start | ret_from_intr | | | |--30.43%-- __select | | | |--17.39%-- 0x454f15 | | | |--13.04%-- __read | | | |--13.04%-- vread_hpet | | | |--13.04%-- _xcb_lock_io | | | --13.04%-- 0x7f630878ce87 Note: it does not only affect perf events but also other stacktraces in x86-64.
