If perf_evsel__open() failed, the errno was set and returned properly.
However since the perf_evlist__open() called close() on fd's for all of
evsel x cpu x thread after the failure, the errno was overridden by
other code (EBADF). So the caller of the function ended up seeing
different error message and getting confused.
Fit it by restoring original return value. Because one of caller of the
function is in the python extension, and it uses system errno
internally, it'd be better restoring the original value rather than
using the return value of the function directly, IMHO (i.e. I'm not a
python expert :)

a function start, which results in adding kprobes to unintended

My previous patch https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/24/42 addressed the case
where DWARF info was available for the kernel. This patch fixes the
case where perf probe is used on a kernel without debuginfo available.

The following commit:
b52956c perf tools: Allow multiple threads or processes in record, stat, top
introduced a bug in the thread_map code which caused perf record -a to
not setup system-wide monitoring properly.
$ taskset -c 1 noploop 1000 &
$ perf record -a -C 1 sleep 10
$ perf report -D | tail -20
cycles stats:
TOTAL events: 4413
MMAP events: 4025
COMM events: 340
SAMPLE events: 48
Here I was expecting about 10,000 samples and not 48.
In system-wide mode, the PID passed to perf_event_open() must be -1 and
it was 0. That caused the kernel to setup a per-process event on PID:0.
Consequently, the number of samples captured does not correspond to the
requested measurement.
The following one-liner fixes the problem for me with or without -C.
I would also suggest to change the malloc() to something that matches
the struct definition. thread_map->map[] is declared as int map[] and
not pid_t map[]. If map[] can only contain pids, then change the struct
definition.

The current version of perf detects whether or not the perf.data file is
written in a different endianness using the attr_size field in the
header of the file. This field represents sizeof(struct perf_event_attr)
as known to perf record. If the sizes do not match, then perf tries the
byte-swapped version. If they match, then the tool assumes a different
endianness.
The issue with the approach is that it assumes the size of
perf_event_attr always has to match between perf record and perf report.
However, the kernel perf_event ABI is extensible. New fields can be
added to struct perf_event_attr. Consequently, it is not possible to use
attr_size to detect endianness.
This patch takes another approach by using the magic number written at
the beginning of the perf.data file to detect endianness. The magic
number is an eight-byte signature. It's primary purpose is to identify
(signature) a perf.data file. But it could also be used to encode the
endianness.
The patch introduces a new value for this signature. The key difference
is that the signature is written differently in the file depending on
the endianness. Thus, by comparing the signature from the file with the
tool's own signature it is possible to detect endianness. The new
signature is "PERFILE2".
Backward compatiblity with existing perf.data file is ensured.

Currently we can put the object files in a different directory by using
'O=' comand line argument.
However the generated documentation files don't honor this directive,
This patch fixes that. It's been tested for man target but the others
seems currently broken so no tests have been done on them so far.

By adding following objects:
bench/mem-memset-x86-64-asm.o
bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o
the x86_64 perf binary ended up with executable stack.
The reason was that above objects are assembler sourced and are missing the
GNU-stack note section. In such case the linker assumes that the final binary
should not be restricted at all and mark the stack as RWX.
Adding section ".note.GNU-stack" definition to mentioned objects, with all
flags disabled, thus omiting those objects from linker stack flags decision.

This patch fixes an issue where perf report shows nan% for certain
perf.data files. The below is from a report for a do_fork probe:
-nan% sshd [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork
-nan% packagekitd [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork
-nan% dbus-daemon [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork
-nan% bash [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork
A git bisect shows commit f3bda2c as the cause. However, looking back
through the git history, I saw commit 640c03c which seems to have
removed the required initialization for perf_sample->period. The problem
only started showing after commit f3bda2c. The below patch re-introduces
the initialization and it fixes the problem for me.
With the below patch, for the same perf.data:
73.08% bash [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork
8.97% 11-dhclient [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork
6.41% sshd [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork
3.85% 20-chrony [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork
2.56% sendmail [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_fork
This patch applies over current linux-tip commit 9949284.

In some perf ancient versions we used '[kernel.kallsyms._text]' as the
name for the kernel map.
This got changed with commit:
perf: 'perf kvm' tool for monitoring guest performance from host
commit a1645ce12a
Author: Zhang, Yanmin <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com>
and we started to use following name '[kernel.kallsyms]_text'.
This name change is important for the report code dealing with ancient
perf data. When processing the kernel map event, we need to recognize
the old naming (dont match the last ']') and initialize the kernel map
correctly.
The subsequent call to maps__set_kallsyms_ref_reloc_sym deals with the
superfluous ']' to get correct symbol name.

When building on my Debian/mips system, util/util.c fails to build
because commit 1aed267173 (perf kvm: Do
guest-only counting by default) indirectly includes stdio.h before the
feature selection in util.h is done. This prevents _GNU_SOURCE in
util.h from enabling the declaration of getline(), from now second
inclusion of stdio.h, and the build is broken.
There is another breakage in util/evsel.c caused by include ordering,
but I didn't fully track down the commit that caused it.
The root cause of all this is an inconsistent definition of _GNU_SOURCE,
so I move the definition into the Makefile so that it is passed to all
invocations of the compiler and used uniformly for all system header
files. All other #define and #undef of _GNU_SOURCE are removed as they
cause conflicts with the definition passed to the compiler.
All the features.h definitions (_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64
and _GNU_SOURCE) are needed by the python glue code too, so they are
moved to BASIC_CFLAGS, and the misleading comments about BASIC_CFLAGS
are removed.
This gives me a clean build on x86_64 (fc12) and mips (Debian).

Intended to be able to support the current selection of the preferred

two alternative implementations, again by way of using some
pre-processsor replacement.
While on my Westmere system this proves that the movsb based variant is
worse than the movsq based one (since the ERMS feature isn't there), it
also shows that here for the default as well as small sizes the unrolled
variant outperforms the movsq one.

Since arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S implements not only __memcpy, but also
memcpy, without further precautions this function will get chose by the
static linker for resolving all references, and hence the "default"
measurement didn't really measure anything else than the
"x86-64-unrolled" one.
Fix this by renaming (through the pre-processor) the conflicting symbol.
On my Westmere system, the glibc variant turns out to require about 4%
less instructions, but 15% more cycles for the default 1Mb block size
measured.

The annotate command doesn't take non-option arguments.
In fact, it can take last argument as a symbol filter though, but that's
a special case and, IMHO, it should be discouraged in favor of the -s
option.

With G the counter is configured in guest-only mode and with H in

It will be recalculated at __hists__output_resort, to take into account
filters possibly applied by the TUI, etc.
Since we do the percent math only for those entries that will appear on
the TUI instead of for _all_ the entries at decay time, updating it for
each sample makes the entries seem to decay faster when using the
navigation keys (since the screen will be refreshed), as we're not
coalescing the entries that are being batched to be merged at next
resort/decay time, but considering their periods.
Bug introduced in 743eb86.

The current perf scripting facility only supports tracepoints. This
patch implements a generic perl handler to support other events than
tracepoints too.
This patch introduces a function process_event() that is called by perf
for each sample. The function is called with byte streams as arguments
containing information about the event, its attributes, the sample and
raw data. Perl's unpack() function can easily be used for byte decoding.
The following is the default implementation for process_event() that can
also be generated with perf script:
# Packed byte string args of process_event():
#
# $event: union perf_event util/event.h
# $attr: struct perf_event_attr linux/perf_event.h
# $sample: struct perf_sample util/event.h
# $raw_data: perf_sample->raw_data util/event.h
sub process_event
{
my ($event, $attr, $sample, $raw_data) = @_;
my @event = unpack("LSS", $event);
my @attr = unpack("LLQQQQQLLQQ", $attr);
my @sample = unpack("QLLQQQQQLL", $sample);
my @raw_data = unpack("C*", $raw_data);
use Data::Dumper;
print Dumper \@event, \@attr, \@sample, \@raw_data;
}

The features HEADER_TRACE_INFO and HEADER_BUILD_ID are handled
different when writing the feature section. All other features are
simply disabled on failure and writing the section goes on without
returning an error. There is no reason for these special cases. This
patch unifies handling of the features.
This should be ok since all features can be parsed independently.
Offset and size of a feature's block is stored in struct perf_file_
section right after the data block of perf.data (see perf_session__
write_header()). Thus, if a feature does not exist then other features
can be processed anyway.
Also moving special code for HEADER_BUILD_ID out to write_build_id().
v2:
* perf record throws an error now if buildids may not be generated,
which can be disabled with the --no-buildid option.

The default input file for perf report is not handled the same way as
perf record does it for its output file. This leads to unexpected
behavior of perf report, etc. E.g.:
# perf record -a -e cpu-cycles sleep 2 | perf report | cat
failed to open perf.data: No such file or directory (try 'perf record' first)
While perf record writes to a fifo, perf report expects perf.data to be
read. This patch changes this to accept fifos as input file.
Applies to the following commands:
perf annotate
perf buildid-list
perf evlist
perf kmem
perf lock
perf report
perf sched
perf script
perf timechart
Also fixes char const* -> const char* type declaration for filename
strings.
v2:
* Prevent potential null pointer access to input_name in
builtin-report.c. Needed due to removal of patch "perf report: Setup
browser if stdout is a pipe"
