window.

<title>perf tools: Introduce timestamp__scnprintf_usec()</title>

Joonwoo reported that there's a mismatch between timestamps in script
and sched commands.  This was because of difference in printing the
timestamp.  Factor out the code and share it so that they can be in
sync.  Also I found that sched map has similar problem, fix it too.

Committer notes:

Fixed the max_lat_at bug introduced by Namhyung's original patch, as
pointed out by Joonwoo, and made it a function following the scnprintf()
model, i.e. returning the number of bytes formatted, and receiving as
the first parameter the object from where the data to the formatting is
obtained, renaming it from:

   char *timestamp_in_usec(char *bf, size_t size, u64 timestamp)

to

   int timestamp__scnprintf_usec(u64 timestamp, char *bf, size_t size)

When looking at Intel PT traces with perf script it is useful to have
some indication of the instruction. Dump the instruction bytes and
instruction length, which can be used for simple pattern analysis in
scripts.

% perf record -e intel_pt// foo
% perf script --itrace=i0ns -F ip,insn,insnlen
 ffffffff8101232f ilen: 5 insn: 0f 1f 44 00 00

 ffffffff81012335 ilen: 1 insn: 5d

We're not using it anymore, few users were, but we really could do
without it, simplify lots of functions by removing it.

We're not using it anymore, few users were, but we really could do
without it, simplify lots of functions by removing it.

And remove it from tools/perf/{perf,util}.h, making code that needs
these macros to include linux/time64.h instead, to match how this is
used in the kernel sources.

Because perf data from pipe do not have a header with evsel attr, we
should not check that and disable symbol_conf.use_callchain. Otherwise,
perf script won't show callchains even if the data stream contains
callchain.

<title>perf script: Show proper message when failed list scripts</title>

Perf shows the usage message when perf scripts folder failed to open,
which misleads users to let them think the command is being mistyped.

This patch shows a proper message and guides users to check the
PERF_EXEC_PATH environment variable in that case.

Before:

  $ perf script --list

  Usage: perf script [&lt;options&gt;]
   or: perf script [&lt;options&gt;] record &lt;script&gt; [&lt;record-options&gt;] &lt;command&gt;
   or: perf script [&lt;options&gt;] report &lt;script&gt; [script-args]
   or: perf script [&lt;options&gt;] &lt;script&gt; [&lt;record-options&gt;] &lt;command&gt;
   or: perf script [&lt;options&gt;] &lt;top-script&gt; [script-args]

      -l, --list            list available scripts

After:

  $ perf script --list
  open(/home/user/perf-core/scripts) failed.
  Check for "PERF_EXEC_PATH" env to set scripts dir.

<title>perf script: Add callindent option</title>

Based on patches from Andi Kleen.

When printing PT instruction traces with perf script it is rather useful
to see some indentation for the call tree. This patch adds a new
callindent field to perf script that prints spaces for the function call
stack depth.

We already have code to track the function call stack for PT, that we
can reuse with minor modifications.

The resulting output is not quite as nice as ftrace yet, but a lot
better than what was there before.

Note there are some corner cases when the thread stack gets code
confused and prints incorrect indentation. Even with that it is fairly
useful.

When displaying kernel code traces it is recommended to run as root, as
otherwise perf doesn't understand the kernel addresses properly, and may
not reset the call stack correctly on kernel boundaries.

Example output:

	sudo perf-with-kcore record eg2 -a -e intel_pt// -- sleep 1
	sudo perf-with-kcore script eg2 --ns -F callindent,time,comm,pid,sym,ip,addr,flags,cpu --itrace=cre | less

When printing PT instruction traces with perf script it is rather useful
to see some indentation for the call tree. This patch adds a new
callindent field to perf script that prints spaces for the function call
stack depth.

We already have code to track the function call stack for PT, that we
can reuse with minor modifications.

The resulting output is not quite as nice as ftrace yet, but a lot
better than what was there before.

Note there are some corner cases when the thread stack gets code
confused and prints incorrect indentation. Even with that it is fairly
useful.

When displaying kernel code traces it is recommended to run as root, as
otherwise perf doesn't understand the kernel addresses properly, and may
not reset the call stack correctly on kernel boundaries.

Example output:

	sudo perf-with-kcore record eg2 -a -e intel_pt// -- sleep 1
	sudo perf-with-kcore script eg2 --ns -F callindent,time,comm,pid,sym,ip,addr,flags,cpu --itrace=cre | less
