If a '$PERF_BUILDID_DIR'(typically $HOME/.debug) is a symbolic link
directory, cutting of the path will fail.
Here is an example where a buildid directory is a symbolic link.
/ # ls -al /root
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Mar 26 2012 /root -> opt/home/root
/ # cd ~
/opt/home/root # perf record -a -g sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.322 MB perf.data (~14057 samples) ]
/opt/home/root # perf archive
tar: Removing leading `/' from member names
Now please run:
$ tar xvf perf.data.tar.bz2 -C ~/.debug
wherever you need to run 'perf report' on.
/opt/home/root # mkdir temp
/opt/home/root # tar xf perf.data.tar.bz2 -C ./temp
/opt/home/root # find ./temp -name "*kernel*"
./temp/opt/home/root/.debug/[kernel.kallsyms]
-> If successfully cut off the path, [kernel.kallsyms] is located
in top of the archived file.
This patch enables to cut correctly even if the buildid directory
is a symbolic link.

event->ip.pid is being used in perf_session__find_machine_for_cpumode,
which is not correct.
The event->ip.pid field happens to be 0 in this case and results in
returning a NULL machine object. Finally, access to self->pid in

The lines in objdump have this format:

<SNIP>
ffffffff81265494: mov %rdi,%rcx
Since we now have objdump_line allowing tools to print the offset
independently from the rest of the line, allow toggling a view where
just offsets from the start of the function are shown:
2f: jne ffffffff81265494 <__list_del_entry+0x84>
<SNIP>
84: mov %rdi,%rcx
The offset view will be the default as soon as operations that deal with
offsets in a function are handled accodringly, i.e. in offset view the
above will become:
2f: jne __list_del_entry+0x84
<SNIP>
84: mov %rdi,%rcx
And then a follow up patch will allow navigating thru jumps, just like
we handle callq instructions.

This routine was checking only if the provided address was after
sym->end, not if it was before sym->start.
Fix that by checking for both and return in both cases -ERANGE, so that
tools can communicate this to the user properly, or if they chose so, to
abort.
This problem was reported previously but the fixes involved either doing
what was being done for the > end case, i.e. silently drop the sample,
returning 0, or aborting at this function, which is in a lib (or better,
is slated to be at some point) and shouldn't abort.
The 'report' tool already checks this value and uses pr_debug to warn
the user.
This patch makes the 'top' tool check it too and warn once per map where
such range problem takes place.

# ./perf report
# enter '0 syscalls:sys_enter_kexec_load' menu
# pres ENTER twice
Above steps are valid assuming ls wont run kexec.. ;)

When a process exec()'s, all the maps are retired, but we keep the hist
entries around which hold references to those outdated maps.
If the same library gets mapped in for which we have hist entries, a new
map will be created. But when we take a perf entry hit within that map,
we'll find the existing hist entry with the older map.
This causes symbol translations to be done incorrectly. For example,
the perf entry processing will lookup the correct uptodate map entry and
use that to calculate the symbol and DSO relative address. But later
when we update the histogram we'll translate the address using the
outdated map file instead leading to conditions such as out-of-range
offsets in symbol__inc_addr_samples().
Therefore, update the map of the hist_entry dynamically at lookup/
creation time.

We should use "[unknown]" in this case, in concert with the code in
_hist_entry__dso_snprintf().
Otherwise we'll crash when recomputing the histogram column lengths in
hists__calc_col_len().

In perf_event__parse_sample(), the array variable was not incremented
by the amount of data used by the raw_data.
That was okay until we added PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK which depends on
the array variable pointing to the beginning of the branch stack data.
But that was not the case if branch stack was combined with raw mode
sampling. That led to bogus branch stack addresses and count.
The bug would show up with:
$ perf record -R -b foo
This patch fixes the problem by correctly moving the array pointer
forward for RAW samples.

The callchain stdio mode display was written using a sorted by symbol
report. In this mode we have only one callchain root per hist so we
forgot to handle cases where we have multiple callchain root, as in per
dso sorting for example.
Fix this by handling these roots like any other branch, with the hist as
the parent.
Before:
1.97% libpthread-2.12.1.so
|
--- __libc_write
create_worker
bench_sched_messaging
cmd_bench
run_builtin
main
__libc_start_main
|
--- __libc_read
create_worker
bench_sched_messaging
cmd_bench
run_builtin
main
__libc_start_main
After:
1.97% libpthread-2.12.1.so
|
|--36.97%-- __libc_write
| create_worker
| bench_sched_messaging
| cmd_bench
| run_builtin
| main

|
|--31.47%-- __libc_read
| create_worker
| bench_sched_messaging
| cmd_bench
| run_builtin
| main
| __libc_start_main
...
Single roots keep their entry without percentage because they have
the same overhead than the hist they refer to. ie: 100% in fractal
mode and the percentage of the hist in graph mode:
0.00% [k] reschedule_interrupt

This renames for_each_set_bit_cont() to for_each_set_bit_from() because
it is analogous to list_for_each_entry_from() in list.h rather than
list_for_each_entry_continue().
This doesn't remove for_each_set_bit_cont() for now.

The perf diff command is broken since:
perf hists: Threaded addition and sorting of entries
commit 1980c2ebd7
Several places were broken:
- hists data need to be collected into opened sessions instead
of into events
- session's hists data need to be initialized properly when the
session is created
- hist_entry__pcnt_snprintf: the percentage and displacement
buffer preparation must not use 'ret' because it's used
as a pointer to the final buffer

The event modifier needs to be applied only on the event definition it
is attached to.
The current state is that in case of multiple events definition (in
single '-e' option, separated by ',') all will get modifier of the last
one.
Fixing this by adding separated list for each event definition, so the
modifier is applied only to proper event(s). Added automated test to
catch this, plus some other modifier tests.

Pull perf events changes for v3.4 from Ingo Molnar:
- New "hardware based branch profiling" feature both on the kernel and
the tooling side, on CPUs that support it. (modern x86 Intel CPUs
with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.)
This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for
branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from
regular, function histogram centric profiles.
The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result
looks like this in perf report:
$ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy
$ perf report -b --sort=symbol
52.34% [.] main [.] f1
24.04% [.] f1 [.] f3
23.60% [.] f1 [.] f2
0.01% [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn [k] _IO_file_overflow
0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn
0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] strchrnul
0.01% [k] __printf [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal
0.01% [k] main [k] __printf
This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest
percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e. the most likely taken
branches in the system. "branches" can also include function calls
and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the
instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system
calls, traps, interrupts, etc.
This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI
support in perf report.
- Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies.
It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter
you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other
improvements.
- Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf
stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs:
perf top -p 21483,21485
perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd
perf record -p 21483,21485
- Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf
report, etc. For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the
tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc.
- Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the
factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h
generic facility:
struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE;
...
if (static_key_false(&key))
do unlikely code
else
do likely code
...
static_key_slow_inc();
...
static_key_slow_inc();
...
The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as
little impact to the likely code path as possible. the
static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching.
This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to
micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key
usage and fast/slow cost patterns.
- SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support.
- Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's
smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more
smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows
better, etc.
- Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes',
and a corner case bugfix.
- Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk).
- Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space
self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any
system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side.
- 'perf bench' improvements
- ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made
these features possible. And, as usual this list is incomplete as
there were also lots of other improvements

This patch adds a simple GTK2-based browser to 'perf report' that's
based on the TTY-based browser in builtin-report.c.
To launch "perf report" using the new GTK interface just type:
$ perf report --gtk
The interface is somewhat limited in features at the moment:
- No callgraph support
- No KVM guest profiling support
- No color coding for percentages
- No sorting from the UI
- ..and many, many more!
That said, I think this patch a reasonable start to build future features on.
