Modules installed outside of the kernel's build system should go into
"%s/lib/modules/%s/extra", but at present, perf will only look at them
when they are in "%s/lib/modules/%s/kernel". Lets encourage good
citizenship by relaxing this requirement to "%s/lib/modules/%s". This
way open source modules that are out-of-tree have no incentive to start
populating a directory reserved for in-kernel modules and I can stop
hex-editing my system's perf binary when profiling OSS out-of-tree
modules.
Feedback from Namhyung Kim correctly revealed that the hex-edits that I
had been doing meant that perf was also traversing the build and source
symlinks in %s/lib/modules/%s. That is undesireable, so we explicitly
exclude them from traversal with a minor tweak to the traversal routine.

By turning the addr_location->filtered member from a boolean to a u8
bitmap, reusing (and extending) the hist_filter enum for that.
This patch doesn't change the logic at all, as it keeps the meaning of
al->filtered !0 to mean that the entry _was_ filtered, so no change in
how this value is interpreted needs to be done at this point.
This will be soon used in upcoming patches.

When trying to map a bunch of instruction addresses to their respective
threads, I kept getting a lot of bogus entries [I forget the exact
reason as I patched my code months ago].
Looking through ip__resolve_ams, I noticed the check for
if (al.sym)
and realized, most times I have an al.map definition but sometimes an
al.sym is undefined. In the cases where al.sym is undefined, the loop
keeps going even though a valid al.map exists.
Modify this check to use the more reliable al.map. This fixed my bogus
entries.

When callgraph data was included in the perf data file, it may take a
long time to scan all those data and merge them together especially if
the stored callchains are long and the perf data file itself is large,
like a Gbyte or so.
The callchain stack is currently limited to PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH (127).
This is a large value. Usually the callgraph data that developers are
most interested in are the first few levels, the rests are usually not
looked at.
This patch adds a new --max-stack option to perf-report to limit the
depth of callchain stack data to look at to reduce the time it takes for
perf-report to finish its processing. It trades the presence of trailing
stack information with faster speed.
The following table shows the elapsed time of doing perf-report on a
perf.data file of size 985,531,828 bytes.

Task comm's are getting lost when processing events from a file. The
problem is that the trace struct used by the live processing has its
host machine and the perf-session used for file based processing has its
host machine. Fix by having both references point to the same machine.

[ Split patch removing unrelated conversion of sprintf to snprintf to perf/core ]
Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
This patch adds support for the new PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 record type
exposed by the kernel. This is an extended PERF_RECORD_MMAP record.
It adds for each file-backed mapping the device major, minor number and
the inode number and generation.
This triplet uniquely identifies the source of a file-backed mapping. It
can be used to detect identical virtual mappings between processes, for
instance.
The patch will prefer MMAP2 over MMAP.

Add a new parameter for 'pid' to machine__findnew_thread().
Change callers to pass 'pid' when it is known.
Note that callers sometimes want to find the main thread
which has the memory maps. The main thread has tid == pid
so the usage in that case is:
machine__findnew_thread(machine, pid, pid)
whereas the usage to find the specific thread is:
machine__findnew_thread(machine, pid, tid)

Occassionally events (e.g., context-switch, sched tracepoints) are losing
the conversion of sample data associated with a thread. For example:
$ perf record -e sched:sched_switch -c 1 -a -- sleep 5
$ perf script
<selected events shown>
ls 30482 [000] 1379727.583037: sched:sched_switch: prev_comm=ls prev_pid=30482 ...
ls 30482 [000] 1379727.586339: sched:sched_switch: prev_comm=ls prev_pid=30482 ...
:30482 30482 [000] 1379727.589462: sched:sched_switch: prev_comm=ls prev_pid=30482 ...
The last line lost the conversion from tid to comm. If you look at the events
(perf script -D) you see why - a SAMPLE event is generated after the EXIT:
0 1379727589449774 0x1540b0 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(30482:30482):(30482:30482)
0 1379727589462497 0x1540e8 [0x80]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 1): 30482/30482: 0xffffffff816416f1 period: 1 addr: 0
... thread: :30482:30482
When perf processes the EXIT event the thread is moved to the dead_threads
list. When the SAMPLE event is processed no thread exists for the pid so a new
one is created by machine__findnew_thread.
This patch address the problem by delaying the move to the dead_threads list
until the tid is re-used (per Adrian's suggestion).
With this patch we get the previous example shows:
ls 30482 [000] 1379727.583037: sched:sched_switch: prev_comm=ls prev_pid=30482 ...
ls 30482 [000] 1379727.586339: sched:sched_switch: prev_comm=ls prev_pid=30482 ...
ls 30482 [000] 1379727.589462: sched:sched_switch: prev_comm=ls prev_pid=30482 ...
and
0 1379727589449774 0x1540b0 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(30482:30482):(30482:30482)

... thread: ls:30482
v4: per Arnaldo's request add dead flag to thread struct and set when task exits
v3: re-do from a time based check to a delayed move to dead_threads list
v2: Rebased to latest perf/core branch. Changed time comparison to use
a macro which explicitly shows the time basis

For some types of work loads and special guest environments, you might
have a kernel that has no kernel modules. The perf kvm record tool
fails instantiate vmlinux maps when the kernel modules directory cannot
be opened, even though the kallsyms has been properly processed. This
leads to a perf kvm report that has no guest symbols resolved.
This patch changes the failure to locate kernel modules to be non-fatal.

The new "object code reading" test shows that it is not possible to read
object code from vmlinux. That is because the mappings do not map to
the dso. This patch fixes that.
A side-effect of changing the kernel map is that the "reloc" offset must
be taken into account. As a result of that separate map functions for
relocation are no longer needed.
Also fixing up the maps to match the symbols no longer makes sense and
so is not done.
The vmlinux dso data_type is now set to either DSO_BINARY_TYPE__VMLINUX
or DSO_BINARY_TYPE__GUEST_VMLINUX as approprite, which enables the
correct file name to be determined by dso__binary_type_file().
This patch breaks the "vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms" test. That is
fixed in a following patch.

For example, in an application with an expensive function implemented
with deeply nested recursive calls, the default call-graph presentation
is dominated by the different callchains within that function. By
ignoring these callees, we can collect the callchains leading into the
function and compactly identify what to blame for expensive calls.
For example, in this report the callers of garbage_collect() are
scattered across the tree:
$ perf report -d ruby 2>- | grep -m10 ^[^#]*[a-z]
22.03% ruby [.] gc_mark
--- gc_mark
|--59.40%-- mark_keyvalue
| st_foreach
| gc_mark_children
| |--99.75%-- rb_gc_mark
| | rb_vm_mark
| | gc_mark_children
| | gc_marks
| | |--99.00%-- garbage_collect
If we ignore the callees of garbage_collect(), its callers are coalesced:
$ perf report --ignore-callees garbage_collect -d ruby 2>- | grep -m10 ^[^#]*[a-z]
72.92% ruby [.] garbage_collect
--- garbage_collect
vm_xmalloc
|--47.08%-- ruby_xmalloc
| st_insert2
| rb_hash_aset
| |--98.45%-- features_index_add
