perf script: Extend misc field decoding with switch out event type

2018-04-17T12:47:39+00:00

Append 'p' sign to 'S' tag designating the type of context switch out event so
'Sp' means preemption context switch. Documentation is extended to cover
new presentation changes.

  $ perf script --show-switch-events -F +misc -I -i perf.data:

perf script: Use HAVE_LIBXXX_SUPPORT to replace NO_LIBXXX

2018-04-12T13:33:29+00:00

In Makefile.config, we define the conditional compilation variables
HAVE_LIBPERL_SUPPORT and HAVE_LIBPYTHON_SUPPORT.

To make the C code more consistent, this patch replaces
NO_LIBPERL/NO_LIBPYTHON in C code with HAVE_LIBPERL_SUPPORT/
HAVE_LIBPYTHON_SUPPORT.

perf tools: Fix snprint warnings for gcc 8

2018-03-19T13:00:43+00:00

With gcc 8 we get new set of snprintf() warnings that breaks the
compilation, one example:

  tests/mem.c: In function ‘check’:
  tests/mem.c:19:48: error: ‘%s’ directive output may be truncated writing \
        up to 99 bytes into a region of size 89 [-Werror=format-truncation=]
    snprintf(failure, sizeof failure, "unexpected %s", out);

The gcc docs says:

 To avoid the warning either use a bigger buffer or handle the
 function's return value which indicates whether or not its output
 has been truncated.

Given that all these warnings are harmless, because the code either
properly fails due to uncomplete file path or we don't care for
truncated output at all, I'm changing all those snprintf() calls to
scnprintf(), which actually 'checks' for the snprint return value so the
gcc stays silent.

perf script: Remove the time slices number limitation

2018-01-17T13:23:37+00:00

Previously it was only allowed to use at most 10 time slices in 'perf
script --time'.

This patch removes this limitation.
For example, following command line is OK (12 time slices)

perf script --time 1%/1,1%/2,1%/3,1%/4,1%/5,1%/6,1%/7,1%/8,1%/9,1%/10,1%/11,1%/12

perf unwind: Do not look just at the global callchain_param.record_mode

2018-01-17T13:23:32+00:00

When setting up DWARF callchains on specific events, without using
'record' or 'trace' --call-graph, but instead doing it like:

	perf trace -e cycles/call-graph=dwarf/

The unwind__prepare_access() call in thread__insert_map() when we
process PERF_RECORD_MMAP(2) metadata events were not being performed,
precluding us from using per-event DWARF callchains, handling them just
when we asked for all events to be DWARF, using "--call-graph dwarf".

We do it in the PERF_RECORD_MMAP because we have to look at one of the
executable maps to figure out the executable type (64-bit, 32-bit) of
the DSO laid out in that mmap. Also to look at the architecture where
the perf.data file was recorded.

All this probably should be deferred to when we process a sample for
some thread that has callchains, so that we do this processing only for
the threads with samples, not for all of them.

For now, fix using DWARF on specific events.
