Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

 * Don't show scripts menu for 'perf top', fix from Feng Tang

 * Add framework for automated perf_event_attr tests, where tools with
   different command line options will be run from a 'perf test', via
   python glue, and the perf syscall will be intercepted to verify that
   the perf_event_attr fields set by the tool are those expected,
   from Jiri Olsa

 * Use normalized arch name for searching objdump path. This fixes cases
   where the system's objdump (e.g. x86_64) supports the architecture in
   the perf.data file (e.g. i686), but is not the same,
   fix from Namhyung Kim.

 * Postpone objdump check until annotation requested, from Namhyung Kim.

 * Add a 'link' method for hists, so that we can have the leader with
   buckets for all the entries in all the hists.  This new method
   is now used in the default 'diff' output, making the sum of the 'baseline'
   column be 100%, eliminating blind spots. Now we need to use this
   for 'diff' with > 2 perf.data files and for multi event 'report' and
   'annotate'.

 * libtraceevent fixes for compiler warnings trying to make perf it build
   on some distros, like fedora 14, 32-bit, some of the warnings really
   pointed to real bugs.

 * Remove temp dir on failure in 'perf test', fix from Jiri Olsa.

 * Fixes for handling data, stack mmaps, from Namhyung Kim.

 * Fix live annotation bug related to recent objdump lookup patches, from
   Namhyung Kim

 * Don't try to follow jump target on PLT symbols in the annotation browser,

11 years agoperf tools: Use normalized arch name for searching objdump path

perf tools: Use normalized arch name for searching objdump path

David reported that perf report for i686 target data on x86_64 host
failed to work because it tried to find out cross-compiled objdump.

However objdump for x86_64 is compatible to i686 so that it doesn't need
to do it at all.  To prevent similar artifacts, normalize arch name when
comparing host and file architectures.

tracing: Remove deprecated tracing_enabled file

The tracing_enabled file was used as a quick way to stop
tracers, and try to bring down overhead for things like
the latency tracers (irqsoff, wakeup, etc). But it didn't
work that well.

The tracing_on file was created as a really fast way to
stop recording into the ftrace ring buffer and can interact
with the kernel. That is a tracing_off() call in the kernel
can disable recording of events, and then from userspace one
could echo 1 into the tracing_on file to continue it. The
tracing_enabled function did too much to allow for this.

The tracing_on has taken over as a way to start and stop tracing
and the tracing_enabled file should not be used. But because of
its existance, it still confuses people. Over a year ago the
following commit was added:

 commit 6752ab4a9c30d5411b2dfdb251a3f1cb18aae487

 Date:   Tue Feb 8 13:54:06 2011 -0500

    tracing: Deprecate tracing_enabled for tracing_on

This commit added a WARN_ON() if the tracing_enabled file's variable
was changed. After this was added, only LatencyTop complained, and
they soon fixed their tool as there was no reason that LatencyTop
should touch this file as it was using the perf ring buffers which
this file does not interact with. But since that time no one else
has complained about this WARN_ON(). Thus it is safe to assume that
this file is no longer needed. Time to get rid of it.

Whenever an event is registered, the comm of tasks are saved at

an event isn't executed much, the comm cache will be filled up
by tasks that did not record the event and you lose out on the comms

Here's an example, if you enable the following events:

echo 1 > /debug/tracing/events/kvm/kvm_cr/enable
echo 1 > /debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_xmit/enable

Note, there's no kvm running on this machine so the first event will
never be triggered, but because it is enabled, the storing of comms

per CPU for the ring buffers if they are not used. Thus, on boot up
the ring buffers are set to a minimal size until something needs the

This works well for events and tracers (function, etc), but for the
asynchronous use of trace_printk() which can write to the ring buffer
at any time, does not expand the buffers.

On boot up a check is made to see if any trace_printk() is used to
see if the trace_printk() temp buffer pages should be allocated. This
same code can be used to expand the buffers as well.

perf tools: Further speed up the perf build

There's another source of overhead in the perf version string generator:

   git update-index -q --refresh

... which will iterate the whole checked out tree. This can be pretty
slow on NFS volumes, but takes some time even with local SSD disks and a
fully cached kernel tree:

 $ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty

       0.306999221 seconds time elapsed                                          ( +-  0.56% )

So remove the .dirty differentiator as well - it adds little information
because locally patched git trees are common, but seldom are the perf
tools modified.

So a lot of version strings are reported as 'dirty' while in fact they
are pristine perf builds. For example 99% of my perf builds are not
patched but the kernel tree is slightly patched, which adds the .dirty
tag.

Eliminating that tag speeds up version generation by another order of
magnitude:

 $ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --sync --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN

Ingo Molnar [Tue, 30 Oct 2012 08:46:00 +0000 (09:46 +0100)]
perf tools: Speed up the perf build time by simplifying the perf --version string generation

Building perf is pretty slow on trees that have a lot of commits
relative to the nearest Git tag. This slowness manifests itself during
version string generation:

 $ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --sync --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.1458.g5399b3b
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.1458.g5399b3b
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.1458.g5399b3b

 Performance counter stats for 'util/PERF-VERSION-GEN' (3 runs):

       2.857503976 seconds time elapsed                                          ( +-  0.22% )

The build can be even slower than that, when one over NFS volumes.

The reason for the slowness is that util/PERF-VERSION-GEN uses "git
describe" to generate the string, which has to count the "number of
commits distance" from the nearest tag - the ".1458." count in the
output above. For that Git had to extract and decompress 1458 Git
objects, which takes time and bandwidth.

But this "number of commits" value is mostly irrelevant in practice. We
either want to know an approximate tag name, or we want to know the
precise sha1.

So this patch simplifies the version string to:

 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty

which speeds up the version string generation script by an order of
magnitude:

 $ perf stat --null --repeat 3 --sync --pre "rm -f PERF-VERSION-FILE" util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty
 PERF_VERSION = 3.7.rc3.g5399b3b.dirty

 Performance counter stats for 'util/PERF-VERSION-GEN' (3 runs):

       0.307633559 seconds time elapsed                                          ( +-  0.84% )
