72f8620441 perf symbols: Correct comment wrt kallsyms loading
In kallsyms_parse() when calling process_symbol() (a callback argument
to kallsyms_parse()), we pass start as both start & end (ie:
start=start, end=start).

In map__process_kallsym_symbol(), the length is calculated as 'end -
start + 1', making the length 1, not 0.

Essentially, start & end define an inclusive range.

26d330226b perf tools: Support for DWARF mode callchain
This patch enables perf to use the DWARF unwind code.

It extends the perf record '-g' option with following arguments:
  'fp'           - provides framepointer based user
                   stack backtrace
  'dwarf[,size]' - provides DWARF (libunwind) based user stack
                   backtrace. The size specifies the size of the
                   user stack dump. If omitted it is 8192 by default.

If libunwind is found during the perf build, then the 'dwarf' argument
becomes available for record command. The 'fp' stays as default option
in any case.

Examples: (perf compiled with libunwind)

   perf record -g dwarf ls
      - provides dwarf unwind with 8192 as stack dump size

   perf record -g dwarf,4096 ls
      - provides dwarf unwind with 4096 as stack dump size

   perf record -g -- ls
   perf record -g fp ls
      - provides frame pointer unwind

71ad0f5e4e perf tools: Support for DWARF CFI unwinding on post processing
This brings the support for DWARF cfi unwinding on perf post
processing. Call frame informations are retrieved and then passed
to libunwind that requests memory and register content from the
applications.

Adding unwind object to handle the user stack backtrace based
on the user register values and user stack dump.

The unwind object access the libunwind via remote interface
and provides to it all the necessary data to unwind the stack.

The unwind interface provides following function:
	unwind__get_entries

And callback (specified in above function) to retrieve
the backtrace entries:
	typedef int (*unwind_entry_cb_t)(struct unwind_entry *entry,
					 void *arg);

393be2e374 perf symbols: Support minimal build without libelf
Now we have isolated all ELF-specific stuff, it's possible to build
without libelf. The output binary can do most of jobs but lacks (user
level) symbol information - kernel symbols are still accessable thanks
to the kallsyms.

To build perf without libelf (elfutils), give NO_LIBELF=1 to make.

For now, only 'perf probe' command is removed since it depends on
libelf/libdw heavily.

basic information of the events and analyze them.

This script will create one object for each event sample and insert them
into a table in a database, then leverage the simple SQL commands to
sort/group them. User can modify or write their brand new functions
according to their specific requirment.

Here is the sample of how to use the script:

 $ perf record -a tree
 $ perf script -s process_event.py

There is 100 records in gen_events table

02f1c33f7d perf scripts python: Add a python library EventClass.py
This library defines several class types for perf events which could
help to better analyze the event samples. Currently there are just a few
classes, PerfEvent is the base class for all perf events,  PebsEvent is
a HW base Intel x86 PEBS event, and user could add more SW/HW event
classes based on requriements.

73994dc158 perf script: Replace "struct thread" with "struct addr_location" as a parameter for "process_event()"
Both perl and python script start processing events other than trace
points, and it's useful to pass the resolved symbol and the dso info to
the event handler in script for better analysis and statistics.

Struct thread is already a member of struct addr_location, using
addr_location will keep the thread info, while providing additional
symbol and dso info if exist, so that the script itself doesn't need to
bother to do the symbol resolving and dso searching work.

6a6daec2ae perf script: Add general python handler to process non-tracepoint events
This patch just follows Robert Richter's idea and the commit 37a058ea0
	"perf script: Add generic perl handler to process events"
to similarly add a python handler for general events other than tracepoints.

For non-tracepoint events, this patch will try to find a function named
"process_event" in the python script, and pass the event attribute,
perf_sample, raw_data in format of raw string. And the python script can
use "struct" module's unpack function to disasemble the needed info and process.

fcf65bf149 perf evsel: Cache associated event_format
We already lookup the associated event_format when reading the perf.data
header, so that we can cache the tracepoint name in evsel->name, so do
it a little further and save the event_format itself, so that we can
avoid relookups in tools that need to access it.

Change the tools to take the most obvious advantage, when they were
using pevent_find_event directly. More work is needed for further
removing the need of a pointer to pevent, such as when asking for event
field values ("common_pid" and the other common fields and per
event_format fields).

This is something that was planned but only got actually done when
Andrey Wagin needed to do this lookup at perf_tool->sample() time, when
we don't have access to pevent (session->pevent) to use with
pevent_find_event().

8b6ee4c5d4 perf header: Set the tracepoint names on PERF_RECORD_HEADER_TRACING_DATA
We only have access to pevent after processing that event, so set the
tracepoint names there.

Right now this isn't a problem as we're deferring resolving the
tracepoint names to when we process samples, but in the next patches we
will be doing it in advance, to avoid relookups, so do it earlier, as
soon as we process the tracing data event.

347ed9903a perf kvm: Use strtol for walking guestmount directory
Only want to process directories under the guestmnount directory that
have a pid as a name (ie, all digits). Other entries in the guestmount
directory should be ignored.  There is already a check that requires the
first character of each entry to be a digit, but atoi is used to convert
the directory name to a pid. For example if guestmount contains a
directory with the name 1foo, atoi converts it to a pid of 1 and a
machine is created with a pid of 1. This is wrong; this directory really
should be ignored. Use strtol to do that.

56e6f602aa perf tool: Save cmdline from user in file header vs what is passed to record
A number of builtin commands process some user args and then pass the rest to
cmd_record. cmd_record then saves argc/argv that it receives into the header of
the perf data file. But this loses the arguments handled by the first command
-- ie., the real command line from the user. This patch saves the command line
as typed by the user rather than what was passed to cmd_record.

As an example consider the command:
$ perf kvm --guest --host --guestmount=/tmp/guest-mount record
    -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 10

Currently the command saved to the header is:
    cmdline : /tmp/p3.5/perf record -o perf.data.kvm -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 1

(ignore the duplicated -o -- the first would be yet another bug with perf-kvm).

With this patch the command line saved to the header is:
cmdline : /tmp/p3.5/perf kvm --guest --host --guestmount=/tmp/guest-mount
    record -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 1

v2: simplified to saving the command in parse_options per Stephane's suggestion

8696329b7b perf annotate: Prevent overflow in size calculation
A large enough symbol size causes an overflow in the size parameter to
the histogram allocation, leading to a segfault in
symbol__inc_addr_samples later on when this histogram is accessed.

In the case of being called via perf-report, this returns back and
gracefully ignores the sample, eventually ignoring the chained return
value of perf_session_deliver_event in flush_sample_queue.

4cc49d4dc8 perf tools: use XSI-complaint version of strerror_r() instead of GNU-specific
Perf uses GNU-specific version of strerror_r(). The GNU-specific strerror_r()
returns a pointer to a string containing the error message.  This may be either
a pointer to a string that the function stores in buf, or a pointer to some
(immutable) static string (in which case buf is unused).

In glibc-2.16 GNU version was marked with attribute warn_unused_result.  It
triggers few warnings in perf:

util/target.c: In function ‘perf_target__strerror’:
util/target.c:114:13: error: ignoring return value of ‘strerror_r’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result]
ui/browsers/hists.c: In function ‘hist_browser__dump’:
ui/browsers/hists.c:981:13: error: ignoring return value of ‘strerror_r’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result]

They are bugs.

Let's fix strerror_r() usage.

There have one problem about hw_breakpoint perf event, as watched, the
events reported to userspace is not correctly, sometime one trigger
bp_event report several events, sometime bp_event cannot go through to
user.

The root cause is attr->freq is 1 passed to kernel defaultly in bp
events, this make kernel calculate event period not as expect, make
sample period to 1 will change attr->freq to 0, to fix this problem.

This patch is similar with commit f92128 about tracepoint events:

4dff624ae0 perf symbols: Add dso data caching
Adding dso data caching so we don't need to open/read/close, each time
we want dso data.

The DSO data caching affects following functions:
  dso__data_read_offset
  dso__data_read_addr

Each DSO read tries to find the data (based on offset) inside the cache.
If it's not present it fills the cache from file, and returns the data.
If it is present, data are returned with no file read.

Each data read is cached by reading cache page sized/aligned amount of
DSO data. The cache page size is hardcoded to 4096.  The cache is using
RB tree with file offset as a sort key.

0983cc0dbc perf tools: Fix trace events storms due to weight demux
Trace events have a period (weight) of 1 by default. This can be
overriden on events definition by using the __perf_count() macro.

For example, the sched_stat_runtime() is weighted with the runtime of
the task that fired the event.

By default, perf handles such weighted event by dividing it into
individual events carrying a weight of 1. For example if
sched_stat_runtime is fired and the task has run 5000000 nsecs, perf
divides it into 5000000 events in the buffer.

This behaviour makes weighted events unusable because they quickly
fullfill the buffers and we lose most events.

The commit 5d81e5cfb3 ("events: Don't
divide events if it has field period") solves this problem by sending
only one event when PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD flag is set. The weight is
carried in the sample itself such that we don't need to demultiplex it
anymore.

This patch provides the last missing piece to use this feature by
setting PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD from perf tools when we deal with trace
events.

adb5d2a487 perf kvm: Fix bug resolving guest kernel syms
Guest kernel symbols are not resolved despite passing the information
needed to resolve them. e.g.,

perf kvm --guest --guestmount=/tmp/guest-mount record -a -- sleep 1
perf kvm --guest --guestmount=/tmp/guest-mount report --stdio

    36.55%  [guest/11399]  [unknown]         [g] 0xffffffff81600bc8
    33.19%  [guest/10474]  [unknown]         [g] 0x00000000c0116e00
    30.26%  [guest/11094]  [unknown]         [g] 0xffffffff8100a288
    43.69%  [guest/10474]  [unknown]         [g] 0x00000000c0103d90
    37.38%  [guest/11399]  [unknown]         [g] 0xffffffff81600bc8
    12.24%  [guest/11094]  [unknown]         [g] 0xffffffff810aa91d
     6.69%  [guest/11094]  [unknown]         [u] 0x00007fa784d721c3

which is just pathetic.

After a maddening 2 days sifting through perf minutia I found it --
id_hdr_size is not initialized for guest machines. This shows up on the
report side as random garbage for the cpu and timestamp, e.g.,

29816 7310572949125804849 0x1ac0 [0x50]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP ...

That messes up the sample sorting such that synthesized guest maps are
processed last.

With this patch you get a much more helpful report:

  12.11%  [guest/11399]  [guest.kernel.kallsyms.11399]  [g] irqtime_account_process_tick
  10.58%  [guest/11399]  [guest.kernel.kallsyms.11399]  [g] run_timer_softirq
   6.95%  [guest/11094]  [guest.kernel.kallsyms.11094]  [g] printk_needs_cpu
   6.50%  [guest/11094]  [guest.kernel.kallsyms.11094]  [g] do_timer
   6.45%  [guest/11399]  [guest.kernel.kallsyms.11399]  [g] idle_balance
   4.90%  [guest/11094]  [guest.kernel.kallsyms.11094]  [g] native_read_tsc
    ...

- changed rbtree walk to use rb_first per Namhyung's suggestion

7c0f4a4113 perf kvm: Guest userspace samples should not be lumped with host uspace
e.g., perf kvm --host  --guest report -i perf.data --stdio -D
shows:

... chain: nr:2
.....  0: ffffffffffffff80
.....  1: fffffffffffffe00
 ... thread: qemu-kvm:5671
 ...... dso: <not found>

(IP, 5) means sample in guest userspace. Those samples should not be lumped
into the VMM's host thread. i.e, the report output:

    56.86%  qemu-kvm  [unknown]         [u] 0x00007fdf95a061c0

With this patch the output emphasizes it is a guest userspace hit:

    56.86%  [guest/5671]  [unknown]         [u] 0x00007fdf95a061c0

Looking at 3 VMs (2 64-bit, 1 32-bit) with each running a CPU bound
process (openssl speed), perf report currently shows:

  93.84%  117726   qemu-kvm  [unknown]   [u] 0x00007fd7dcaea8e5

which is wrong. With this patch you get:

  31.50%   39258   [guest/18772]  [unknown]   [u] 0x00007fd7dcaea8e5
  31.50%   39236   [guest/11230]  [unknown]   [u] 0x0000000000a57340

5cd95c2db4 perf kvm: Set name for VM process in guest machine
COMM events are not generated in the context of a guest machine, so the

So, samples for guest machines are currently displayed as:

    99.67%     :5671  [unknown]         [g] 0xffffffff81366b41

where 5671 is the pid of the VMM. With this patch the samples in the guest
machine are shown as:

    18.43%  [guest/5671]  [unknown]           [g] 0xffffffff810d68b7

17d7a1123f perf bench: Fix confused variable namings and descriptions in mem subsystem
As Namhyung Kim pointed, there are confused namings and descriptions of words
"cycle" and "clock" in mem-memset.c and mem-memcpy.c.

With the option "-c" (or "--clock", now renamed as "--cycle"), mem subsystem
measures cost of memset() and memcpy() with cpu-cycles event.

But current mem subsystem source code contains lots of confused variable
namings and descriptions with "clock" (e.g. the variable use_clock). This is a
very bad style because there is another software event named "cpu-clock". This
patch replaces wrong usage of "clock" to "cycle".

v2: modified Documentation/perf-bench.txt for the descriptions of
--cycle option

The MMAP events in this case already contain the full path to the

207b579269 perf kvm: Fix regression with guest machine creation
Commit 743eb86865 reworked when the
machines were created. Prior to this commit guest machines could be
created in perf_event__process_kernel_mmap() while processing kernel
MMAP events. This commit assumes that the machines exist by the time
perf_session_deliver_event is called (e.g., during processing of build
id events) - which is not always correct.

One example is the use of default guest args (--guestkallsyms and
--guestmodules) for short times where no samples hit within a guest
module. For this case no build id is added to the file header. No build
id == no machine created. That leads to the next example -- the use of
no-buildid (-B) on the record for all perf-kvm invocations. In both
cases perf report dies with a SEGFAULT of the form:

Fix by allowing the machine to be created in perf_session_deliver_event.

Tested with --guestmount option and default guest args, with and without
-B arg on record for both and for short (10 seconds) and long (10
minutes) windows.

76a8349dfd perf script: Fix format regression due to libtraceevent merge
Consider the commands:
    perf record -e sched:sched_switch -fo /tmp/perf.data  -a -- sleep 1
    perf script -i /tmp/perf.data

In v3.4 the output has the form (lines wrapped here)
    perf 29214 [005] 821043.582596: sched_switch:
prev_comm=perf prev_pid=29214 prev_prio=120
prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/5 next_pid=0 next_prio=120

In 3.5 that same line has become:
    perf 29214 [005] 821043.582596: sched_switch:
<...>-29214 [005]     0.000000000: sched_switch:
prev_comm=perf prev_pid=29214 prev_prio=120
prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/5 next_pid=0 next_prio=120

Note the duplicates in the output -- pid, cpu, event name. With
this patch the v3.4 output is restored:
    perf 29214 [005] 821043.582596: sched_switch:
prev_comm=perf prev_pid=29214 prev_prio=120
prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/5 next_pid=0 next_prio=120

v3:
Remove that pesky newline too. Output now matches v3.4 (pre-libtracevent).

v2:
Change print_trace_event function local to perf per Steve's comments.

9bc8f9fe2c perf tools: Fix generation of pmu list
The internal pmu list was never used. With each perf_pmu__find() call
the pmu structure was created new by parsing sysfs. Beside this it
caused memory leaks. We now keep all pmus by adding them to the list.

Also, pmu_lookup() should return pmus that do not expose the format
specifier in sysfs.

We need a valid internal pmu list in a later patch to iterate over all
pmus that exist in the system.

300aa94165 perf report: Delay sample_type checks in pipe mode
The pipeline:
  perf record -a -g -o - sleep 5 |perf inject -v -b  | perf report  -g -i -

generates the warning:
  Selected -g but no callchain data. Did you call 'perf record' without -g?

The problem is that the header data is not written to the pipe, so the
sample_type has not been available when perf_report__setup_sample_type
is called. For pipe mode, record dumps the sample type as part of the
synthesized events stream -- perf_event__synthesize_attrs(). Handle this
be detecting pipe mode and not doing early sanity checks on sample_type.

da3789628f perf tools: Stop using a global trace events description list
The pevent thing is per perf.data file, so I made it stop being static
and become a perf_session member, so tools processing perf.data files
use perf_session and _there_ we read the trace events description into
session->pevent and then change everywhere to stop using that single
global pevent variable and use the per session one.

Note that it _doesn't_ fall backs to trace__event_id, as we're not
interested at all in what is present in the
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events in the workstation doing the analysis,
just in what is in the perf.data file.

This patch also introduces perf_session__set_tracepoints_handlers that
is the perf perf.data/session way to associate handlers to tracepoint
events by resolving their IDs using the events descriptions stored in a
perf.data file. Make 'perf sched' use it.

35a4687322 perf evsel: Fix a build failure on cross compilation
The commit c410431cef ("perf tools: Reconstruct event with modifiers
from perf_event_attr") added the line, but it's broken since it needs to
go up 3 directories to get to the kernel root directory, not 2.

However host gcc contains /usr/local/include in its search path, so that
it can find the perf_event.h in /usr/include. This why we didn't notice
the problem yet.  But when I tried to cross compile it appears like:

      CC util/evsel.o
  util/evsel.c:18:44: error: ../../include/linux/perf_event.h: No such file or directory
  make: *** [util/evsel.o] Error 1

Looking at the source, it isn't needed at all as evsel.h already
included the perf_event.h. So simply remove it would solve the problem.
