    -include $(OUTPUT)PERF-VERSION-FILE

   but that's entirely pointless for two reasons: 1) the version file
   gets regenerated by the initial build pass anyway, 2) including it
   is futile, given its contents:

    #define PERF_VERSION "3.12.rc3.g8510c7"

   'make' will interpret that as a comment line...

   So just remove this part of the doc-generation logic.

With these things fixed a 'make install' now rebuilds only what is needed.

A repeated 'make install' on an already built tree is super fast now,
it finishes in under 0.3 seconds:

  #
  #  After the patch:
  #

  $ time make install

  ...

  real    0m0.280s
  user    0m0.162s
  sys     0m0.054s

Prior all the autodep changes and prior this fix, a repeat 'make install'
took 24.1 seconds (!) on the same system:

  #
  #  Before the patches:
  #

  $ time make install

  ...

  real    0m24.109s
  user    0m21.171s
  sys     0m2.449s

Which almost entirely was caused by fixable build system fat.
We are now literally ~86 times faster.

A fresh rebuild and install now takes just 11.4 seconds:

  #
  #  After the patch:
  #

  $ make clean
  $ time make -j16 install

  ...

  real    0m11.457s
  user    1m43.411s
  sys     0m7.610s

Without the patches it took 27.8 seconds:

  #
  #  Before the patches:
  #

  $ make clean
  $ time make -j16 install

  ...

  real    0m27.801s
  user    1m59.242s
  sys     0m9.749s

So even in the complete rebuild case we are now ~2.5 times faster.

tools/perf/build: Speed up the final link

libtraceevent.a and liblk.a rules have always-missed dependencies,
which causes python.so to be relinked at every build attempt - even
if none of the affected code changes.

This slows down re-builds unnecessarily, by adding more than a second
to the build time:

  comet:~/tip/tools/perf> time make

  ...

    SUBDIR /fast/mingo/tip/tools/lib/lk/
    make[1]: `liblk.a' is up to date.
    SUBDIR /fast/mingo/tip/tools/lib/traceevent/
    LINK perf
    GEN python/perf.so

  real    0m1.701s
  user    0m1.338s
  sys     0m0.301s

Add the (trivial) dependencies to not force a re-link.

This speeds up an empty re-build enormously:

  comet:~/tip/tools/perf> time make

  ...

  real    0m0.207s
  user    0m0.134s
  sys     0m0.028s

[ This adds some coupling between the build dependencies of
  libtraceevent and liblk - but until those stay relatively
  simple this should not be an issue. ]

tools/perf/build: Speed up git-version test on re-make

util/PERF-VERSION-GEN is currently executed on every build attempt,
and this script can take a lot of time on trees that are at a
significant git-distance from Linus's tree:

  $ time util/PERF-VERSION-GEN

  real    0m4.343s
  user    0m4.176s
  sys     0m0.140s

It also takes a lot of time if the Git repository is network attached, etc.,
because the commands it uses:

        TAG=$(git describe --abbrev=0 --match "v[0-9].[0-9]*" 2>/dev/null )

has to count commits from the nearest tag and thus has to access (and
decompress) every git commit blob on the relevant version path.

Even on Linus's tree it takes 0.28 seconds on a fast box to count all the
commits and get the git version string:

  $ time util/PERF-VERSION-GEN

  real    0m0.279s
  user    0m0.247s
  sys     0m0.025s

But the version string only has to be regenerated if the git repository's
head commit changes. So add a dependency of ../../.git/HEAD and touch
the file every time it's regenerated, so that Make's build rules can
pick it up and cache the result:

  make: `PERF-VERSION-FILE' is up to date.

If test-all fails then we still check all the individual features, so
this is a pure speedup, it should have no effects on functionality.

11 years agoperf probe: Fix to find line information for probe list

perf probe: Fix to find line information for probe list

Fix to find the correct (as much as possible) line information for
listing probes. Without this fix, perf probe --list action will show
incorrect line information as below;

  probe:getname_flags  (on getname_flags@ksrc/linux-3/fs/namei.c)
  probe:getname_flags_1 (on getname:-89@x86/include/asm/current.h)
  probe:getname_flags_2 (on user_path_at_empty:-2054@x86/include/asm/current.h)

The minus line number is obviously wrong, and current.h is not related
to the probe point. Deeper investigation discovered that there were 2
issues related to this bug, and minor typos too.

The 1st issue is the rack of considering about nested inlined functions,
which causes the wrong (relative) line number.

The 2nd issue is that the dwarf line info is not correct at those
points. It points 14th line of current.h.

Since it seems that the line info includes somewhat unreliable
information, this fixes perf to try to find correct line information
from both of debuginfo and line info as below.

1) Probe address is the entry of a function instance

  In this case, the line is set as the function declared line.

2) Probe address is the entry of an expanded inline function block

  In this case, the line is set as the function call-site line.
  This means that the line number is relative from the entry line
  of caller function (which can be an inlined function if nested)

3) Probe address is inside a function instance or an expanded
   inline function block

  In this case, perf probe queries the line number from lineinfo
  and verify the function declared file is same as the file name
  queried from lineinfo.

  If the file name is different, it is a failure case. The probe
  address is shown as symbol+offset.

4) Probe address is not in the any function instance

  This is a failure case, the probe address is shown as
  symbol+offset.

With this fix, perf probe -l shows correct probe lines as below;

  probe:getname_flags  (on getname_flags@ksrc/linux-3/fs/namei.c)
  probe:getname_flags_1 (on getname:2@ksrc/linux-3/fs/namei.c)
  probe:getname_flags_2 (on user_path_at_empty:4@ksrc/linux-3/fs/namei.c)

Changes at v2:
 - Fix typos in the function comments. (Thanks to Namhyung Kim)
 - Use die_find_top_inlinefunc instead of die_find_inlinefunc_next.

perf: Add generic transaction flags

Add a generic qualifier for transaction events, as a new sample
type that returns a flag word. This is particularly useful
for qualifying aborts: to distinguish aborts which happen
due to asynchronous events (like conflicts caused by another
CPU) versus instructions that lead to an abort.

The tuning strategies are very different for those cases,
so it's important to distinguish them easily and early.

Since it's inconvenient and inflexible to filter for this
in the kernel we report all the events out and allow
some post processing in user space.

The flags are based on the Intel TSX events, but should be fairly
generic and mostly applicable to other HTM architectures too. In addition
to various flag words there's also reserved space to report an
program supplied abort code. For TSX this is used to distinguish specific
classes of aborts, like a lock busy abort when doing lock elision.

Flags:

Elision and generic transactions     (ELISION vs TRANSACTION)
(HLE vs RTM on TSX; IBM etc.  would likely only use TRANSACTION)
Aborts caused by current thread vs aborts caused by others (SYNC vs ASYNC)
Retryable transaction    (RETRY)
Conflicts with other threads    (CONFLICT)
Transaction write capacity overflow    (CAPACITY WRITE)
Transaction read capacity overflow    (CAPACITY READ)

Transactions implicitely aborted can also return an abort code.
This can be used to signal specific events to the profiler. A common
case is abort on lock busy in a RTM eliding library (code 0xff)
To handle this case we include the TSX abort code

Common example aborts in TSX would be:

- Data conflict with another thread on memory read.
                                      Flags: TRANSACTION|ASYNC|CONFLICT
- executing a WRMSR in a transaction. Flags: TRANSACTION|SYNC
- HLE transaction in user space is too large
                                      Flags: ELISION|SYNC|CAPACITY-WRITE

The only flag that is somewhat TSX specific is ELISION.

This adds the perf core glue needed for reporting the new flag word out.

v2: Add MEM/MISC
v3: Move transaction to the end
v4: Separate capacity-read/write and remove misc
v5: Remove _SAMPLE. Move abort flags to 32bit. Rename
    transaction to txn

tools/perf/stat: Add perf stat --transaction

Add support to perf stat to print the basic transactional execution statistics:
Total cycles, Cycles in Transaction, Cycles in aborted transsactions
using the in_tx and in_tx_checkpoint qualifiers.
Transaction Starts and Elision Starts, to compute the average transaction
length.

This is a reasonable overview over the success of the transactions.

Also support architectures that have a transaction aborted cycles
counter like POWER8. Since that is awkward to handle in the kernel
abstract handle both cases here.

Enable with a new --transaction / -T option.

This requires measuring these events in a group, since they depend on each
other.

This is implemented by using TM sysfs events exported by the kernel

PCI: Workaround missing pci_set_master in pci drivers

Ben Herrenschmidt found that commit 928bea964827 ("PCI: Delay enabling
bridges until they're needed") breaks PCI in some powerpc environments.

The reason is that the PCIe port driver will call pci_enable_device() on
the bridge, so the device is enabled, but skips pci_set_master because
pcie_port_auto and no acpi on powerpc.

Because of that, pci_enable_bridge() later on (called as a result of the
child device driver doing pci_enable_device) will see the bridge as
already enabled and will not call pci_set_master() on it.

Fixed by add checking in pci_enable_bridge, and call pci_set_master
if driver skip that.

That will make the code more robot and wade off problem for missing
pci_set_master in drivers.

Make use of arch_mutex_cpu_relax() so architectures can override the

This is especially useful for s390, where cpu_relax() means that we
