* perf trace scripting: Fix extern struct definitionsStephane Eranian2010-10-041-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Both python_scripting_ops and perl_scripting_ops have two global definitions. One in trace-event-scripting.c and one in their respective scripting-engine modules. The issue is that depending on the linker order one definition or the other is chosen. One is uninitialized (bss), while the other is initialized. If the uninitialized version is chosen, then perf does not function properly. This patch fixes this by adding the extern prefix to the definitions in trace-event-scripting.c. Cc: David S.

* perf: Initialize callchains roots's childen hitsFrederic Weisbecker2010-08-271-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each histogram entry has a callchain root that stores the callchain samples. However we forgot to initialize the tracking of children hits of these roots, which then got random values on their creation. The root children hits is multiplied by the minimum percentage of hits provided by the user, and the result becomes the minimum hits expected from children branches. If the random value due to the uninitialization is big enough, then this minimum number of hits can be huge and eventually filter every children branches. The end result was invisible callchains. All we need to fix this is to initialize the children hits of the root.

* perf annotate tui: Fix exit and RIGHT keys handlingArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2010-08-161-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As part of ongoing effort to reduce the coupling with libnewt, browsers are being changed to return the exit key. The annotate browser is not returning it as expected by builtin-annotate when annotating multiple symbols (when 'perf annotate' is called without specifying a symbol name). Fix it by returning the exit key and also adding the RIGHT key as a exit key so that going to the next symbol in the TUI can work again.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ARM ELF files use symbols with special names $a, $t, $d to identify regions of ARM code, Thumb code and data within code sections.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When parsing the objdump disassembly output we can have goto labels that are valid hex numbers and thus get confused with lines with machine code. Handle the common case of a label that has nothing after it and other cases where there is just source code by validating the resulting "ip". It is still possible that we find goto labels that are in the function address range, but only if they are located before the real address we should be OK. A change in the objdump output to have a clear marker separating addresses from the disassembly would come handy, but we would still have to deal with older versions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hists that have been filtered, because they don't have callchains matching the parent filter, won't be printed. As such, hist_entry__snprintf() returns 0 for them, but we don't control this value and we always print the buffer, which might be untouched and then only made of random stack garbage. Not only does it paint the screen with barf, it also prints the callchains for these hists, even though they have been filtered, since the hist has been filtered as well. We need to check the return value of hist_entry__snprintf() and ignore the hist if it is 0, which means it didn't get any callchain matching the parent filter. This fixes the barf and the undesired callchains.

* | perf tools: Release thread resources on PERF_RECORD_EXITArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2010-07-305-0/+61
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For long running sessions with many threads with short lifetimes the amount of memory that the buildid process takes is too much. Since we don't have hist_entries that may be pointing to them, we can just release the resources associated with each thread when the exit (PERF_RECORD_EXIT) event is received. For normal processing we need to annotate maps with hits, and thus hist_entries pointing to it and drop the ones that had none. Will be done in a followup patch. Cc: David S.

* | perf symbols: Improve debug image search when loading symbolsDave Martin2010-07-301-35/+61
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Changes: * Simplification of the main search loop on dso__load() * Replace the search with a 2-pass search: * First, try to find an image with a proper symtab. * Second, repeat the search, accepting dynsym. A second scan should only ever happen when needed debug images are missing from the buildid cache or stale, i.e., when the cache is out of sync. Currently, the second scan also happens when using separated debug images, since the caching logic doesn't currently know how to cache those. Improvements to the cache behaviour ought to solve that.

* | perf tools: Factor out buildid reading and make it implicit in dso__loadDave Martin2010-07-301-33/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we have a buildid, then we never want to load an image which has no buildid, or which has a different buildid, so it makes sense for the check to be built into dso__load and not done separately. This is fine for old distros which don't use buildid at all since we do no check in that case. This refactoring also alleviates some subtle race condition issues by not opening ELF images twice to check the buildid and then load the symbols, which could lead to weirdness if an image is replaced under our feet.
