2016-05-06perf script: Add call path id to exported sample in db exportChris Phlipot
The exported sample now contains a reference to the call_path_id that represents its callchain. While callchains themselves are nice to have, being able to associate them with samples makes them much more useful, and can allow for such things as determining how much cumulative time is spent in a particular function. This information is normally possible to get from the call return processor. However, when doing normal sampling, call/return information is not available, thus necessitating the need for associating samples directly with call paths. This commit include changes to db-export layer to make this information available for subsequent patches in this change set, but by itself, does not make any changes visible to the user.

2016-05-06perf script: Enable db export to output sampled callchainsChris Phlipot
This change enables the db export api to export callchains. This is accomplished by adding callchains obtained from samples to the call_path_root structure and exporting them via the current call path export API. While the current API does support exporting call paths, this is not supported when sampling. This commit addresses that missing feature by allowing the export of call paths when callchains are present in samples. Summary: - This feature is activated by initializing the call_path_root member inside the db_export structure to a non-null value. - Callchains are resolved with thread__resolve_callchain() and then stored and exported by adding a call path under call path root. - Symbol and DSO for each callchain node are exported via db_ids_from_al() This commit puts in place infrastructure to be used by subsequent commits, and by itself, does not introduce any user-visible changes.

As it comes from address_location->thread, that is already stored as export_sample->al, where the thread can be obtained.

2014-11-03perf tools: Defer export of comms that were not 'set'Adrian Hunter
Tracing for a workload begins before the comm event is seen, which results in the initial comm having a string of the form ":<pid>" (e.g. ":12345"). In order to export the correct string, defer the export until the new script 'flush' callback.

2014-10-29perf tools: Add facility to export data in database-friendly wayAdrian Hunter
This patch introduces an abstraction for exporting sample data in a database-friendly way. The abstraction does not implement the actual output. A subsequent patch takes this facility into use for extending the script interface. The abstraction is needed because static data like symbols, dsos, comms etc need to be exported only once. That means allocating them a unique identifier and recording it on each structure. The member 'db_id' is used for that. 'db_id' is just a 64-bit sequence number. Exporting centres around the db_export__sample() function which exports the associated data structures if they have not yet been allocated a db_id.
