This patches make perf stat always output the running time and the
enabled/running ratio in CSV mode.

This adds two new fields at the end for each line. I assume that
existing tools ignore new fields at the end, so it's on by default.

Only CSV mode is affected, no difference otherwise.

v2: Add extra print_running function
v3: Avoid printing nan
v4: Remove some elses and add brackets.
v5: Move non CSV case into print_running

perf hists browser: Fix UI bug after fold/unfold

In perf hists browser, the fold/unfold stat of each hist entry is
recorded but hb->nr_callchain_rows loses its value after zoom out and
zoom in back. This causes a wrong row cursor range that restrict user to
move down anymore.

This bug can be reproduced as follows:

  $ perf record -g -e syscalls:* ls
  $ perf report

  ================================================================
    2 syscalls:sys_enter_mprotect <= [enter one of the entries]
    2 syscalls:sys_exit_mprotect
    13 syscalls:sys_enter_brk
    ...

In the hists brower, unfold some of the items, now the cursor can reach
to any rows:

    Children      Self  Command  Shared Object          Symbol
  ================================================================
  -  100.00%   100.00%  ls       libuClibc-0.9.33.2.so  [.] lstat64

     0x6469702e64 <= [cursor can reach to bottom line, everything is ok]

Now, zoom back to "Available samples" and enter again:

    Children      Self  Command  Shared Object          Symbol
  ================================================================
  -  100.00%   100.00%  ls       libuClibc-0.9.33.2.so  [.] lstat64

It currently prevents adding probes in weak symbols.  But there're cases

  $ perf probe -x /usr/lib/libc.so.6 -a calloc

This change will result in duplicate probes when strong and weak symbols
co-exist in a binary.  But I think it's not a big problem since probes

perf probe: Fix to handle aliased symbols in glibc

Fix perf probe to handle aliased symbols correctly in glibc.  In the
glibc, several symbols are defined as an alias of __libc_XXX, e.g.
malloc is an alias of __libc_malloc.

In such cases, dwarf has no subroutine instances of the alias functions
(e.g. no "malloc" instance), but the map has that symbol and its
address.

Thus, if we search the alieased symbol in debuginfo, we always fail to
find it, but it is in the map.

To solve this problem, this fails back to address-based alternative
search, which searches the symbol in the map, translates its address to
alternative (correct) function name by using debuginfo, and retry to
find the alternative function point from debuginfo.

This adds fail-back process to --vars, --lines and --add options. So,
now you can use those on malloc@libc :)

Without this patch;
  -----
  # ./perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so -V malloc
  Failed to find the address of malloc
    Error: Failed to show vars.
  # ./perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so -a "malloc bytes"
  Probe point 'malloc' not found in debuginfo.
    Error: Failed to add events.
  -----

With this patch;
  -----
  # ./perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so -V malloc
  Available variables at malloc
          @<__libc_malloc+0>
                  size_t  bytes
  # ./perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so -a "malloc bytes"
  Added new event:
    probe_libc:malloc    (on malloc in /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so with bytes)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1

perf tools: Remove annoying extra message from the features build

This message:

  Makefile:153: The path 'python-config' is not executable.

Appears on every perf build that does not have a sufficient python
environment installed. It's really just an internal detail of python
configuration pass and users should not see it - and it's pretty
meaningless to them in any case because the message is not very helpful.
(So it's not executable. Why does that matter? What can the user do
about it?)

Remove the warning, the missing python feature warning is sufficient:

  config/Makefile:566: No python-config tool was found
  config/Makefile:566: Python support will not be built

although even that one isn't very helpful to users: so no Python support
will be built, what can the user do to fix that? Most other such
warnings give package install suggestions.

PERF_RECORD_COMM, so the code below will remove the "existing thread"
and then recreates it, unnecessarily:

when a new fork happens, i.e. first a PERF_RECORD_FORK, then a
PERF_RECORD_COMM.

9 years agoperf tools: Fix the bash completion problem of 'perf --*'
Yunlong Song [Fri, 27 Feb 2015 10:21:31 +0000 (18:21 +0800)]
perf tools: Fix the bash completion problem of 'perf --*'

The perf-completion.sh uses a predefined string '--help --version
--exec-path --html-path --paginate --no-pager --perf-dir --work-tree
--debugfs-dir' for the bash completion of 'perf --*', which has two
problems:

 Problem 1: If the options of perf are changed (see handle_options() in
 perf.c), the perf-completion.sh has to be changed at the same time. If
 not, the bash completion of 'perf --*' and the options which perf
 really supports will be inconsistent.

 Problem 2: When typing another single character after 'perf --', e.g.
 'h', and hit TAB key to get the bash completion of 'perf --h', the
 character 'h' disappears at once. This is not what we want, we wish the
 bash completion can return '--help --html-path' and then we can
 continue to choose one.

 To solve this problem, we add '--list-opts' to perf, which now supports
 'perf --list-opts' directly, and its result can be used in bash
 completion now.

Example:

 Before this patch:

 $ perf --h                 <-- hit TAB key after character 'h'
 $ perf --                  <-- 'h' disappears and no required result

 After this patch:

 $ perf --h                 <-- hit TAB key after character 'h'
 --help       --html-path   <-- the required result

9 years agoperf diff: Support for different binaries

perf diff: Support for different binaries

Currently, the perf diff only works with same binaries. That's because
it compares the symbol start address. It doesn't work if the perf.data
comes from different binaries. This patch matches the symbol names.

Actually, perf diff once intended to compare the symbol names.  The
commit as below can look for a pair by name.

604c5c92972d (perf diff: Change the default sort order to "dso,symbol")
However, at that time, perf diff used a global list of dsos. That means
the binaries which has same name can only be loaded once. That's a
problem for comparing different binaries.

For example, we have an old binary and an updated binary. They very
likely have same name and most of the functions, so only dsos from old
binary will be loaded. When processing the data from updated binary,
perf still use the symbol information from old binary. That's wrong.

Then the commit as below used IP to replace symbol name.
9c443dfdd31e ("perf diff: Fix support for all --sort combinations")
>From that time, perf diff starts to compare the symbol address.

The global dsos is discarded from a patch in 2010.
a1645ce12adb ("perf: 'perf kvm' tool for monitoring guest performance
from host")
However, at that time, perf diff already compared by address. So perf
diff cannot work for different binaries as well.

This patch actually rolls back the perf diff to original design. The
document is also changed, so everybody knows the original design is to
compare the symbol names.

Here are some examples:

perf buildid-cache: Add new buildid cache if update target is not cached

Add new buildid cache if the update target file is not cached.

This can happen when an old binary is replaced by new one after caching
the old one. In this case, user sees his operation just failed.

But it does not look straight, since user just pass the binary "path",
not "build-id".

  # ./perf buildid-cache --update ./perf

This patch adds given new binary to cache if the new binary is
not cached. So we'll not see the above error.

distinguish and specify perf CTF data:

  - domain

    It says "kernel" because it contains a kernel trace (not to be
    confused with a user space like lttng-ust does)

  - tracer_name

    It says perf. This can be used to distinguish between lttng and perf
    CTF based trace.

  - version

    The kernel version from stream. In addition to release, this is what
    it looks like on a Debian kernel:

      release = "3.14-1-amd64";
      version = "3.14.0";

margin, in a poll that people weren't even supposed to participate in.
Who can argue with solid numbers like that? 5,796 votes from people who

but with a total of 29,110 votes right now.

Now, arguably, that vote spread is only about 3,200 votes, which is less
