2014-10-03perf callchain: Move callchain_param to util object in to fix python testJiri Olsa
In following commit we changed the location of callchains data: 72a128aa083a7f4cc4f800718aaae05d9c698e26 perf tools: Move callchain config from record_opts to callchain_param Now all callchains stuff stays in callchain_param struct, which adds its dependency for evsel.c object and breaks python perf.so usage (unresolved callchain_param). Moving callchain_param into callchain.c and adding it into python-ext-sources unleash just another dependency hell, so I ended up adding callchain_param into util.c for now.

If we detect oprofile daemon process running, we now display following message for EBUSY error: $ perf record ls Error: The PMU counters are busy/taken by another profiler.

2012-10-02perf tools: Convert to BACKTRACE_SUPPORTNamhyung Kim
For building perf without stack backtrace debug, we can set NO_BACKTRACE=1 as a argument of make. It then defines NO_BACKTRACE macro for C code to do the proper handling. However it usually used in a negative semantics - e.g. #ifndef - so we saw double negations which can be misleading. Convert it to a positive form to make it more readable and add _SUPPORT suffix for consistency.

2012-09-07perf tools: add NO_BACKTRACE for application self-debuggingIrina Tirdea
perf has support for self-debugging by defining dump_stack function. This function uses backtrace and backtrace_symbols functions defined as GNU extensions. In Android, bionic does not offer support for these functions and compilation will fail with the following error: target C: libperf <= tools/perf/util/util.c tools/perf/util/util.c:4:22: fatal error: execinfo.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. Add a compile-time option (NO_BACKTRACE) to enable or disable self-debugging functionality in perf.

2012-02-13perf tools: cleanup initialization of attr->sizeStephane Eranian
The perf_event_attr size needs to be initialized in all cases because it captures the ABI version. This patch moves the initialization of the field from the perf_event_open() syscall stub to its proper location in the event_attr_init().

2012-02-13perf tools: Change perf_guest default back to falseJoerg Roedel
Setting perf_guest to true by default makes no sense because the perf subcommands can not setup guest symbol information and thus not process and guest samples. The only exception is perf-kvm which changes the perf_guest value on its own. So change the default for perf_guest back to false.

2010-05-14perf report: Report number of events, not samplesArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Number of samples is meaningless after we switched to auto-freq, so report the number of events, i.e. not the sum of the different periods, but the number PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE emitted by the kernel. While doing this I noticed that naming "count" to the sum of all the event periods can be confusing, so rename it to .period, just like in struct sample.data, so that we become more consistent. This helps with the next step, that was to record in struct hist_entry the number of sample events for each instance, we need that because we use it to generate the number of events when applying filters to the tree of hist entries like it is being done in the TUI report browser.

2010-01-17perf: Fix implicit declaration of getline in util.cFrederic Weisbecker
getline() is considered as undeclared in util/util.c because it includes string.h, that in turn includes stdio.h, without having defined _GNU_SOURCE. But util.c also includes util.h that handles the _GNU_SOURCE and all the needed inclusions already. Let's include only util.h and sys/mman.h which is the only one header not handled by util.h This fixes the following build error: util/util.c: In function 'slow_copyfile': util/util.c:49: erreur: implicit declaration of function 'getline' util/util.c:49: erreur: nested extern declaration of 'getline' Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> LKML-Reference: <1263648075-3858-1-git-send-regression-fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-12-28perf record: Introduce a symtab cacheArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Now a cache will be created in a ~/.debug debuginfo like hierarchy, so that at the end of a 'perf record' session all the binaries (with build-ids) involved get collected and indexed by their build-ids, so that perf report can find them. This is interesting when developing software where you want to do a 'perf diff' with the previous build and opens avenues for lots more interesting tools, like a 'perf diff --graph' that takes more than two binaries into account. Tunables for collecting just the symtabs can be added if one doesn't want to have the full binary, but having the full binary allows things like 'perf rerecord' or other tools that can re-run the tests by having access to the exact binary in some perf.data file, so it may well be interesting to keep the full binary there. Space consumption is minimised by trying to use hard links, a 'perf cache' tool to manage the space used, a la ccache is required to purge older entries. With this in place it will be possible also to introduce new commands, 'perf archive' and 'perf restore' (or some more suitable and future proof names) to create a cpio/tar file with the perf data and the files in the cache that _had_ perf hits of interest. There are more aspects to polish, like finding the right vmlinux file to cache, etc, but this is enough for a first step.
