There's a problem on finding correct kernel symbols when perf report
runs on a different kernel. Although a part of the problem was solved
by the prior commit 0a7e6d1b68 ("perf tools: Check recorded kernel
version when finding vmlinux"), there's a remaining problem still.
When perf records samples, it synthesizes the kernel map using
machine__mmap_name() and ref_reloc_sym like "[kernel.kallsyms]_text".
You can easily see it using 'perf report -D' command.
After finishing record, it goes through the recorded events to find
maps/dsos actually used. And then record build-id info of them.
During this process, it needs to load symbols in a dso and it'd call
dso__load_vmlinux_path() since the default value of the symbol_conf.
try_vmlinux_path is true. However it changes dso->long_name to a real
path of the vmlinux file (e.g. /lib/modules/3.16.4/build/vmlinux) if one
is running on a custom kernel.
It resulted in that perf report reads the build-id of the vmlinux, but
cannot use it since it only knows about the [kernel.kallsyms] map. It
then falls back to possible vmlinux paths by using the recorded kernel
version (in case of a recent version) or a running kernel silently.
Even with the recent tools, this still has a possibility of breaking
the result. As the build directory is a symbolic link, if one built a
new kernel in the same directory with different source/config, the old
link to vmlinux will point the new file. So it's absolutely needed to
use build-id when finding a kernel image.
In this patch, it's now changed to try to search a kernel dso in the
existing dso list which was constructed during build-id table parsing
so it'll always have a build-id. If not found, search "[kernel.kallsyms]".

When perf record finishes a session, it pre-processes samples in order
to write build-id info from DSOs that had samples.
During this process it'll call map__load() for the kernel map, and it
ends up calling dso__load_vmlinux_path() which replaces dso->long_name.
But this function checks kernel's build-id before searching vmlinux path
so it'll end up with a cryptic name, the pathname for the entry in the
~/.debug cache, which can be confusing to users.
This patch adds a flag to skip the build-id check during record, so
that it'll have the original vmlinux path for the kernel dso->long_name,
not the entry in the ~/.debug cache.

The dsos__write_buildid_table() is not use struct dso and it mostly
uses perf_session struct.
So rename it to perf_session__write_buildid_ table() so that it
corresponds to other related functions such as
perf_session__read_build_ids() and perf_session__cache_build_ids().

Enhance the thread stack to output detailed information about paired
calls and returns.
The enhanced processing consumes sample information via
thread_stack__process() and outputs information about paired calls /
returns via a call-back.
While the call-back makes it possible for the facility to be used by
arbitrary tools, a subsequent patch will provide the information to
Python scripting via the db-export interface.
An important part of the call/return information is the
call path which provides a structure that defines a context
sensitive call graph.
Note that there are now two ways to use the thread stack.
For simply providing a call stack (like you would get from the perf
record -g option) the interface consists of thread_stack__event() and
thread_stack__sample().
Whereas the enhanced interface consists of call_return_processor__new()
and thread_stack__process().

Add an index of the event identifiers, in preparation for Intel PT.
The event id (also called the sample id) is a unique number
allocated by the kernel to the event created by perf_event_open(). Events
can include the event id by having a sample type including PERF_SAMPLE_ID or
PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER.
Currently the main use of the event id is to match an event back to the
evsel to which it belongs i.e. perf_evlist__id2evsel()
The purpose of this patch is to make it possible to match an event back to
the mmap from which it was read. The reason that is useful is because the
mmap represents a time-ordered context (either for a cpu or for a thread).
Intel PT decodes trace information on that basis. In full-trace mode, that
information can be recorded when the Intel PT trace is read, but in
sample-mode the Intel PT trace data is embedded in a sample and it is in
that case that the "id index" is needed.
So the mmaps are numbered (idx) and the cpu and tid recorded against the id
by perf_evlist__set_sid_idx() which is called by perf_evlist__mmap_per_evsel().
That information is recorded on the perf.data file in the new "id index".
idx, cpu and tid are added to struct perf_sample_id (which is the node of
evlist's hash table to match ids to evsels). The information can be
retrieved using perf_evlist__id2sid(). Note however this all depends on
having a sample type including PERF_SAMPLE_ID or PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER,
otherwise ids are not recorded.
The "id index" is a synthesized event record which will be created when
Intel PT sampling is used by calling perf_event__synthesize_id_index().

'perf_db_export_mode' to True. The script then optionally implements
functions to receive table rows. The functions are:
evsel_table
machine_table
thread_table
comm_table
dso_table
symbol_table
sample_table
An example script is provided in a subsequent patch.

[ Reserve space for per symbol db_id space when perf_db_export_mode is on ]
Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
This patch introduces an abstraction for exporting sample data in a
database-friendly way. The abstraction does not implement the actual
output. A subsequent patch takes this facility into use for extending
the script interface.
The abstraction is needed because static data like symbols, dsos, comms
etc need to be exported only once. That means allocating them a unique
identifier and recording it on each structure. The member 'db_id' is
used for that. 'db_id' is just a 64-bit sequence number.
Exporting centres around the db_export__sample() function which exports
the associated data structures if they have not yet been allocated a
db_id.

'perf record' post-processes the event stream to create a list of
build-ids for object files for which sample events have been recorded.
That results in those object files being recorded in the build-id cache.
In the case of VDSO, perf tools reads it from memory and copies it into
a temporary file, which as decribed above, gets added to the build-id
cache.
Then when the perf.data file is processed by other tools, the build-id
of VDSO is listed in the perf.data file and the VDSO can be read from
the build-id cache. In that case the name of the map, the short name of
the DSO, and the entry in the build-id cache are all "[vdso]".
However, in the 64-bit case, there also can be 32-bit compatibility
VDSOs.
A previous patch added programs "perf-read-vdso32" and "perf
read-vdsox32".
This patch uses those programs to read the correct VDSO for a thread and
create a temporary file just as for the 64-bit VDSO.
The map name and the entry in the build-id cache are still "[vdso]" but
the DSO short name becomes "[vdso32]" and "[vdsox32]" respectively.

perf tools copy VDSO out of memory. However, on 64-bit machines there
may be 32-bit compatibility VDOs also. To copy those requires separate
32-bit executables.
This patch adds to the build additional programs perf-read-vdso32 and
perf-read-vdsox32 for 32-bit and x32 respectively.

Now we are sure that we can obtain the machine where a thread is by going
via thread->mg->machine, thus we can, in the following patch, make all

After kernel 3.7 (commit b4b8f770eb),
/proc/cpuinfo replaces 'Processor' to 'model name'.
This patch makes CPUINFO_PROC to an array and provides two choices for
ARM, makes it compatible for different kernel version.
v1 -> v2: minor changes as suggested by Namhyung Kim:
- Doesn't pass @h and @evlist to __write_cpudesc;
- Coding style fix.
v2 -> v3:
- Rebase:

The libunwind provides two caching policy which are global and
per-thread. As perf unwinds callchains in a single thread, it'd
sufficient to use global caching.
This speeds up my perf report from 14s to 7s on a ~260MB data file.
Although the output sometimes contains a slight difference (~0.01% in
terms of number of lines printed) on callchains which were not resolved.

The only thing we need is a forward declaration for 'struct cgroup_sel',
that is inside 'struct perf_evsel'.
Include cgroup.h instead on the tools that support cgroups.

It was being found, by chance, because evsel.h needlessly includes
util/cgroup.h, which will be sorted out in a following patch.

When processing events the session code has an ordered samples queue
which is used to time-sort events coming in across multiple mmaps. At a
later point in time samples on the queue are flushed up to some
timestamp at which point the event is actually processed.
When analyzing events live (ie., record/analysis path in the same
command) there is a race that leads to corrupted events and parse errors
which cause perf to terminate. The problem is that when the event is
placed in the ordered samples queue it is only a reference to the event
which is really sitting in the mmap buffer. Even though the event is
queued for later processing the mmap tail pointer is updated which
indicates to the kernel that the event has been processed. The race is
flushing the event from the queue before it gets overwritten by some
other event. For commands trying to process events live (versus just
writing to a file) and processing a high rate of events this leads to
parse failures and perf terminates.
Examples hitting this problem are 'perf kvm stat live', especially with
nested VMs which generate 100,000+ traces per second, and a command
processing scheduling events with a high rate of context switching --
e.g., running 'perf bench sched pipe'.
This patch offers live commands an option to copy the event when it is
placed in the ordered samples queue.

The unw_addr_space_t in libunwind represents an address space to be used
for stack unwinding. It doesn't need to be create/destory everytime to
unwind callchain (as in get_entries) and can have a same lifetime as
thread (unless exec called).
So move the address space construction/destruction logic to the thread
lifetime handling functions. This is a preparation to enable caching in
the unwind library.
Note that it saves unw_addr_space_t object using thread__set_priv(). It
seems currently only used by perf trace and perf kvm stat commands which
don't use callchain.

Fix for double free bug in tools/perf due to dangling thread_map pointer
in perf_evlist struct.
Code path excercised when perf stat -C switch is used but not set and is
followed by another switch.
Example:

Add new rules for kernel PMU event.
Currently, the patch only want to handle the PMU event name as "a-b" and
"a".
event_pmu:
PE_KERNEL_PMU_EVENT sep_dc
|
PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE '-' PE_PMU_EVENT_SUF sep_dc
PE_KERNEL_PMU_EVENT token is for
cycles-ct/cycles-t/mem-loads/mem-stores.
The prefix cycles is mixed up with cpu-cycles. loads and stores are
mixed up with cache event So they have to be hardcode in lex.
PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE and PE_PMU_EVENT_SUF tokens are for other PMU events.
The lex looks generic identifier up in the table and return the matched
token. If there is no match, generic PE_NAME token will be return.
Using the rules, kernel PMU event could use new style format without //
so you can use:
perf record -e mem-loads ...
instead of:
perf record -e cpu/mem-loads/

There are two types of event formats for PMU events. E.g. el-abort OR
cpu/el-abort/. However, the lexer mistakenly recognizes the simple style
format as two events.
The parse_events_pmu_check function uses bsearch to search the name in
known pmu event list. It can tell the lexer that the name is a PE_NAME
or a PMU event name prefix or a PMU event name suffix. All these
information will be used for accurately parsing kernel PMU events.
The pmu events list will be read from sysfs at runtime.
Note: Currently, the patch only want to handle the PMU event name as
"a-b" and "a". The only exception, "stalled-cycles-frontend" and
"stalled-cycles-fronted", are already hardcoded in lexer.

This reverts commit 50e200f079 ("perf tools: Default to cpu// for
events v5")
The fixup cannot handle the case that
new style format(which without //) mixed with
other different formats.
For example,
group events with new style format: {mem-stores,mem-loads}
some hardware event + new style event: cycles,mem-loads
Cache event + new style event: LLC-loads,mem-loads
Raw event + new style event:
cpu/event=0xc8,umask=0x08/,mem-loads
old style event and new stytle mixture: mem-stores,cpu/mem-loads/
